You may not be able to sue a Japanese company or its officers or directors in a Japanese court for violations of the U.S. securities laws.

Exercise Price after adjustment = Exercise Price before adjustment * (Number of outstanding shares + Number of newly issued shares * Amount of cash payable per share / Market value) / (Number of outstanding shares + Number of newly issued shares)

 

In the formula above, “Number of outstanding shares” means the number calculated by deducting the number of treasury shares from the total number of outstanding common shares of the Company and “Number of newly issued shares” is replaced by “Number of treasury shares to be disposed of” in the case of disposal of the treasury shares.

If the Company carries out a stock split or a stock consolidation after the allotment date of the Stock Acquisition Rights, the Number of Granted Shares is adjusted according to the following formula:

 

Number of Granted Shares after adjustment = Number of Granted Shares before adjustment * Ratio of stock split or stock consolidation.

 

The adjustment in this item is made only to the Number of Granted Shares for the Stock Acquisition Rights that have not yet been exercised at the time of the adjustment, and a fraction of a share as a result of adjustment is rounded down.

 

2.Value or method for calculation of property to be contributed upon exercise of Stock Acquisition Rights

 

The asset to be contributed upon exercise of the Stock Acquisition Rights is cash, and the amount of the asset is the amount of cash payable per share to be delivered upon exercise of each Stock Acquisition Right (the “Exercise Price”) multiplied by the number of shares to be granted upon exercise of the Stock Acquisition Rights.

 

The initial Exercise Price is 8,000 yen.

 

If the Company carries out a stock split or a stock consolidation after the allotment date of the Stock Acquisition Rights, the Exercise Price is adjusted in proportion of ratio of the stock split or stock consolidation and according to the following formula, and a fraction less than 1 yen is rounded up.

If the Company issues new shares or disposes treasury shares with respect to common shares of the Company at an amount lower than the Exercise Price (except issuance of new shares and disposal of treasury shares pursuant to exercise of stock acquisition rights), the Exercise Price is adjusted according to the following formula and a fraction less than 1 yen is rounded up.

 

Exercise Price after adjustment = Exercise Price before adjustment * (Number of outstanding shares + Number of newly issued shares * Amount of cash payable per share / Market value) / (Number of outstanding shares + Number of newly issued shares)

 

In the formula above, “Number of outstanding shares” means the number calculated by deducting the number of treasury shares from the total number of outstanding common shares of the Company and “Number of newly issued shares” is replaced by “Number of treasury shares to be disposed of” in the case of disposal of the treasury shares.

Exhibit 1-8-1

 

SYLA Technologies Co., Ltd.

 

10th Stock Acquisition Rights

 

1.Class and method for calculation of shares underlying Stock Acquisition Rights

 

The type of subject shares per Stock Acquisition Right is common shares of the Company, and the number of subject shares of each Stock Acquisition Right (the “Number of Granted Shares”) is 1 common share of the Company.

 

If the Company carries out a stock split (including allotment of its common shares free of charge or stock dividend in kind; hereinafter the same shall apply to descriptions of stock splits) or a stock consolidation after the allotment date of the Stock Acquisition Rights, the Number of Granted Shares is adjusted according to the following formula (a fraction of a share as a result of adjustment is rounded down.):

 

Number of Granted Shares after adjustment = Number of Granted Shares before adjustment * Ratio of stock split or stock consolidation

 

In addition, after the allotment date of the Stock Acquisition Rights, if the Company carries out a merger, company split, reduction in amount of stated capital, or in the cases where adjustment of the Number of Granted Shares becomes necessary in a similar manner to these circumstances, the Company may adjust the Number of Granted Shares appropriately to a reasonable extent.

 

The adjustment in this item is made only to the Number of Granted Shares for the Stock Acquisition Rights that have not yet been exercised at the time of the adjustment.

 

2.Value of Property to be contributed upon exercise of Stock Acquisition Rights

 

The asset to be contributed upon exercise of the Stock Acquisition Rights is cash, and the amount of the asset is the amount of cash payable per share to be delivered upon exercise of each Stock Acquisition Right (the “Exercise Price”) multiplied by the Number of Granted Shares.

 

The initial Exercise Price is USD 10.

 

If the Company carries out a stock split or a stock consolidation after the allotment date of the Stock Acquisition Rights, the Exercise Price is adjusted according to the following formula, and a fraction less than USD 0.01 is rounded up.

 

Exercise Price after adjustment = Exercise Price before adjustment * 1 / Ratio of stock split or stock consolidation

 

3.Exercise Period during which Stock Acquisition Rights can be exercised

 

The exercise period of the Stock Acquisition Rights is from the date of the allotment (April 20, 2023) to March 29, 2028; provided, however, that if the final day of the exercise period is not a bank business day, the preceding business day is the final day.

Exhibit 1-8-2

 

SYLA Holdings Co., Ltd.

 

8th Stock Acquisition Rights

 

1.Class and method for calculation of shares underlying Stock Acquisition Rights

 

The type of subject shares per Stock Acquisition Right is common shares of the Company, and the number of subject shares of each Stock Acquisition Right (the “Number of Granted Shares”) is 110 common shares of the Company.

 

The Number of Granted Shares are adjusted in following events. The adjustment in this item is made only to the Number of Granted Shares for the Stock Acquisition Rights that have not yet been exercised at the time of the adjustment and a fraction less than 1 share arising out thereof is rounded down.

 

(1)Stock split or a stock consolidation:

 

If the Company carries out a stock split or a stock consolidation after the allotment date of the Stock Acquisition Rights, the Number of Granted Shares is adjusted according to the following formula:

 

Number of Granted Shares after adjustment = Number of Granted Shares before adjustment * Ratio of stock split or stock consolidation.

 

(2)Merger etc.:

 

If the Company carries out Merger etc. (hereafter refers to merger, company split, share-to-share exchange, and share-to-share transfer) or allotment of shares without contribution, or if adjustment of the Number of Granted Shares is necessary, the Company may adjust the Number of Granted Shares to reasonable extent.

 

2.Value method for calculation of Property to be contributed upon exercise of Stock Acquisition Rights

 

The asset to be contributed upon exercise of the Stock Acquisition Rights is cash, and the amount of the asset is the amount of cash payable per share to be delivered upon exercise of each Stock Acquisition Right (the “Exercise Price”) multiplied by the Number of Granted Shares.

 

The initial Exercise Price is the amount calculated by converting USD 0.09 into Japanese yen by the exchange rate on the date of exercise.

 

If the Company carries out a stock split or a stock consolidation after the allotment date of the Stock Acquisition Rights, the Exercise Price is adjusted according to the following formula, and a fraction less than USD 0.01 is rounded up.

 

 

 

 

Exercise Price after adjustment = Exercise Price before adjustment * 1 / Ratio of stock split or stock consolidation

 

3.Exercise Period during which Stock Acquisition Rights can be exercised

 

The exercise period of the Stock Acquisition Rights is from June 1, 2025 to March 29, 2028; provided, however, that if the final day of the exercise period is not a bank business day, the preceding business day is the final day.

(End of the Share Exchange Agreement)

 

 

 

 

3. Matters Concerning Appropriateness of Consideration

 

(1) Matters Concerning Appropriateness of Total Number and Allotment of Consideration

 

A. Details of allotment related to the Share Exchange

 

   

CUMICA

(share exchange
wholly-owning
parent company)

 

SYLA

(share exchange

wholly-owned

subsidiary)

Exchange ratio for the Share Exchange

  1   110.00
Number of shares of stock to be delivered through the Share Exchange   CUMICA common stock: 34,371,590 shares (planned)

 

(Note 1) Share allotment ratio

 

For each share of the SYLA Shares, 110.00 shares of the CUMICA common shares will be delivered. Furthermore, the above share exchange ratio may, if a significant change has occurred in the various conditions that form the basis of the calculation, be changed by agreement after consultation between CUMICA and the Company.

 

(Note 2) Number of common shares to be delivered through the Share Exchange

 

At the time of the Share Exchange, CUMICA shall allot and deliver to shareholders of the Company at the time immediately before the time of CUMICA’s acquisition of all SYLA Shares through the Share Exchange (the “Reference Time”) (however, this refers to shareholders after the cancellation of the treasury shares as set forth below) the number of common shares of CUMICA (the “CUMICA Shares”) calculated based on the exchange ratio in the table above in exchange for the SYLA Shares held by such shareholders. CUMICA plans to allot newly issued common shares.

 

In addition, by resolution at a the Company’s Board of Directors meeting held by the day before the effective date of the Share Exchange, the Company plans to cancel at the time immediately before the Reference Time all of the treasury shares (including treasury shares acquired by the Company through purchase of shares related to a share purchase demand exercised pursuant to the provisions of Article 785(1) of the Companies Act upon the Share Exchange) held as of the time immediately before the Reference Time. The total number of CUMICA Shares to be allotted and delivered through the Share Exchange may be revised going forward depending on the number of treasury shares that the Company holds by the time immediately before the Reference Time, etc.

 

Furthermore, the above “Number of shares to be delivered through the Share Exchange” assumes that the stock acquisition rights issued by the Company that are in a condition allowing exercise are all exercised by the day before the effective date of the Share Exchange, and if some or all of the stock acquisition rights have not been exercised, the number of shares to be delivered through the Share Exchange will decrease.

 

(Note 3) Handling of CUMICA Shares held by the Company

 

The Company already holds CUMICA Shares (3,688,300 shares) and will come to hold shares of the wholly-owning parent company CUMICA due to the Share Exchange taking effect, but after the effective date of the Share Exchange, the relevant shares, including dividends in kind to CUMICA, are planned to be disposed of at an appropriate time in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act.

 

(Note 4) Handling of shares less than one unit

 

The Company’s shareholders who hold CUMICA shares constituting less than one unit (less than 100 shares) as a result of the Share Exchange will not be able to sell such shares less than one unit on a financial instruments exchange market, but may avail themselves of the following system for CUMICA’s shares less than one unit.

 

System for purchasing shares less than one unit (sale of shares less than one unit)

 

This system allows holders to demand that CUMICA purchase shares less than one unit that they hold based on the provisions of Article 192(1) of the Companies Act.

 

 

 

 

B. Basis, etc. for the Details of Allotment Pertaining to the Share Exchange

 

(a) Basis and reasons for the allotment

 

To ensure fairness and appropriateness in determining the share exchange ratio used in the Share Exchange described above in 3(1)A “Details of allotment related to the Share Exchange” (the “Share Exchange Ratio”), CUMICA and the Company have each appointed a third-party calculation agent and various advisors independent from both companies.

 

Specifically, CUMICA has appointed KK Stand by C (“StandbyC”) as its third-party calculation agent, Mita Securities Co., Ltd. (“Mita Securities”) as its financial advisor, and TMI Associates (“TMI”) as its legal advisor, and the Company has appointed PwC Advisory LLC (“PwC”) as its financial advisor and third-party calculation agent, and DT Legal (“DTL”) and Allen Overy Shearman Sterling GKJ (“AOS”) as its legal advisors.

 

After careful discussion and consideration by CUMICA based on the contents of the calculation report regarding the share exchange ratio obtained from its third-party calculation agent StandbyC, the fact that the Share Exchange Ratio is within the range of the calculation results using the DCF method in the calculation report, and advice from its financial advisor Mita Securities and its legal advisor TMI as described in (d) “Measures to ensure fairness” below, and the report, etc. received from the special committee that has no interest in the Company as described in (e) “Measures to avoid conflict of interest” below, CUMICA has concluded that the Share Exchange Ratio is appropriate and will contribute to the interests of CUMICA shareholders, and has therefore determined that it is appropriate to carry out the Share Exchange based on the Share Exchange Ratio.

 

After careful discussion and consideration by the Company based on advice, etc. from its financial advisor and third-party calculation agent PwC and from DTL and AOS as described in (d) “Measures to ensure fairness” below, the Company has concluded that the Share Exchange Ratio is appropriate based on the fact that it is within the range of the calculation results using the DCF method in the calculation report prepared by PwC and will contribute to the interests of the Company shareholders, and has therefore determined that it is appropriate to carry out the Share Exchange based on the Share Exchange Ratio.

 

In addition to the above, after careful examination based on the results of due diligence, etc. conducted by each company on the other company and comprehensive consideration of factors such as CUMICA and the Company’s finances, assets, and future prospects, etc., CUMICA and the Company have held repeated negotiations and consultations with each other.

 

As a result, CUMICA and the Company have determined that the Share Exchange Ratio is appropriate and will contribute to the interests of their respective shareholders, and have therefore executed the Share Exchange Agreement between the two companies with the approval of their respective Boards of Directors.

 

 

 

 

(b) Matters related to calculation

 

(i) Name of calculation agents and relationship with both companies

 

CUMICA’s third-party calculation agent StandbyC and SYLA’s third-party calculation agent PwC are both calculation agents independent of CUMICA and the Company, do not constitute affiliated parties of CUMICA or the Company, and have no material interests that should be stated regarding the Share Exchange.

 

(ii) Overview of calculation

 

StandbyC, in its calculation with respect to CUMICA, respectively adopted the average market price method, because CUMICA is listed on a financial instruments exchange and has a market stock price, and in addition, the discounted cash flow method (the “DCF Method”) to reflect the status of future business activities in the evaluation.

 

In the average market price method, using the calculation reference date of November 29, 2024 as the reference date, StandbyC used the closing price on the reference date, and the simple average of closing prices for the five most recent business days, the most recent month, the three most recent months, and the six most recent months before the reference date for CUMICA Shares on the standard market of Tokyo Stock Exchange, Inc. (the “Tokyo Stock Exchange Standard Market”).

 

In the DCF Method, with respect to CUMICA, the calculation was made by discounting future cash flows based on the financial forecasts for the periods from the fiscal year ending May 31, 2025 to the fiscal year ending May 31, 2027 prepared by CUMICA to the present value using a certain discount rate. The profit plan that constituted the assumptions for calculation includes business years in which a significant increase or decrease in profits is expected. Specifically, for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2025, due to the current low level of acquisition of real estate for development and sale, operating income is expected to be 143 million yen, a decrease by approximately 52% from 295 million yen in the previous fiscal year, and net income is expected to be 79 million yen, a decrease by approximately 63% from 213 million yen in the previous fiscal year. In addition, for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2026, due to the continued weakness in the acquisition of real estate for sale, operating income is expected to be 61 million yen, a decrease by approximately 58% from 143 million yen in the previous fiscal year, and net income is expected to be 21 million yen, a decrease by approximately 73% from 79 million yen in the previous fiscal year. In addition, for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2027, due to a recovery resulting from the re-strengthening of the development business, operating income is expected to be 195 million yen, an increase by approximately 223% from 61 million yen in the previous fiscal year, and net income is expected to be 116 million yen, an increase by approximately 441% from 21 million yen in the previous fiscal year. In addition, the financial forecasts do not assume the implementation of the Share Exchange.

 

 

 

 

With respect to the Company, StandbyC respectively adopted the average market price method, because SYLA ADSs are listed on the U.S. Nasdaq stock market and have a market stock price, and also the DCF Method to reflect the status of future business activities in the evaluation.

 

In the average market price method, using the calculation reference date of November 29, 2024 as the reference date, StandbyC used the closing price on the reference date, and the simple average of closing prices for the five most recent business days, the most recent month, the three most recent months, and the six most recent months before the reference date for SYLA ADSs on the U.S. Nasdaq stock market.

 

In the DCF Method, with respect to the Company, the calculation was made by discounting future cash flows based on the financial forecasts for the periods from the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 to the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 prepared by the Company to the present value using a certain discount rate. The profit plan that constituted the assumptions for calculation includes business years in which a significant increase or decrease in profits is expected. Specifically, for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, due to the plan to sell multiple properties with high profitability, operating income (consolidated) is expected to be 3.389 billion yen, an increase by 80% from 1.887 billion yen in the previous fiscal year, and net income (consolidated) is expected to be 1.846 billion yen, an increase by approximately 129% from 808 million yen in the previous fiscal year. In addition, the financial forecasts do not assume the implementation of the Share Exchange.

 

The share exchange ratio calculation results for each evaluation method when the value per share of CUMICA Shares is set as one are as follows. For SYLA Shares in the average market price method, since SYLA ADSs are quoted in U.S. dollars and 100 SYLA ADSs equal one SYLA Share, the share exchange ratio is calculated upon converting the closing price or the simple average of closing prices for one SYLA ADS to Japanese yen using the U.S. dollar rate (1 USD = 150.74 yen) on the reference date and making a unit conversion by multiplying by 100.

 

Method used   Share exchange ratio calculation range
Average market price method   52.09 – 81.93
DCF Method   93.75 – 228.61

 

 

 

 

In calculating the above share exchange ratio, StandbyC has in principle used the information provided by both companies and publicly available information, etc. as-is, and has assumed that all of the materials and information, etc. used are accurate and complete and that there are no facts undisclosed to StandbyC that could have a material impact on the calculation of the share exchange ratio, and has not independently verified the accuracy and completeness of the materials and information. Furthermore, StandbyC has not independently evaluated, appraised, or assessed the assets or liabilities (including contingent liabilities) of the two companies and their affiliated companies, including the analysis and evaluation of individual assets and liabilities, and has not requested appraisals or assessments from third-party organizations. StandbyC’s share exchange ratio calculation reflects the information and economic conditions as of November 29, 2024 (however, until the end of trading on the U.S. Nasdaq stock market on November 29 U.S. time for SYLA ADSs), and assumes that the financial forecasts of each company have been reasonably considered or prepared based on the best forecasts and judgments available at the present time by the management of each company.

 

PwC, in its calculation with respect to CUMICA, respectively adopted the market price standard method, because CUMICA is listed on a financial instruments exchange and has a market stock price, as well as the DCF Method to reflect the status of future business activities in the evaluation.

 

In the market price standard method, using November 29, 2024 as the reference date, PwC used the closing price on the reference date, the simple average closing price and volume weighted average price for the most recent month up to the reference date, and the simple average closing price and volume weighted average price for the three most recent months up to the reference date for CUMICA Shares on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Standard Market.

 

In the DCF Method, with respect to CUMICA, the calculation was made by discounting future cash flows expected to be generated from the second quarter of the fiscal year ending May 31, 2025 onwards based on various factors such as the business plan for the period from the fiscal year ending May 31, 2025 to the fiscal year ending May 31, 2027 prepared by CUMICA, interviews with CUMICA, and information released to the public to the present value using a certain discount rate. It is stated that CUMICA’s business plan used by PwC in the calculation using the DCF Method includes business years in which a significant increase or decrease in profits is expected. Specifically, for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2025, operating income is expected to be 143 million yen, a decrease by approximately 52% from 295 million yen in the previous fiscal year, and net income is expected to be 79 million yen, a decrease by approximately 63% from 213 million yen in the previous fiscal year, due to the delay of real estate sales expected in the second half of the fiscal year ending May 31, 2025 to the following fiscal year. Also, for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2026, operating income is expected to be 61 million yen, a decrease by approximately 58% from 143 million yen in the previous fiscal year, and net income is expected to be 21 million yen, a decrease by approximately 73% from 79 million yen in the previous fiscal year, due mainly to a slump in the development business. In addition, for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2027, operating income is expected to be 195 million yen, an increase by approximately 223% from 61 million yen in the previous fiscal year, and net income is expected to be 116 million yen, an increase by 441% from 21 million yen in the previous fiscal year, due to a re-strengthening of the development business. In addition, CUMICA’s financial forecasts that constitute the assumptions for PwC’s analysis using the DCF Method do not assume the implementation of the Share Exchange.

 

 

 

 

With respect to the Company, PwC adopted each of the market price standard method, because SYLA ADSs are listed on the U.S. Nasdaq stock market and have a market stock price, and in addition, the DCF Method to reflect the status of future business activities in the evaluation.

 

In the market price standard method, using November 29, 2024 as the reference date, PwC used the closing price on the reference date, the simple average closing price and volume weighted average price for the most recent month up to the reference date, and the simple average closing price and volume weighted average price for the three most recent months up to the reference date for SYLA ADSs on the U.S. Nasdaq stock market.

 

In the DCF Method, with respect to the Company, the calculation was made by discounting future cash flows expected to be generated from the second half of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 onwards based on various factors such as the business plan for the period from the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 to the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 prepared by the Company, interviews with the Company, and information released to the public to the present value using a certain discount rate. It is stated that the profit plan used by PwC in the calculation using the DCF Method includes business years in which a significant increase in profits is expected. Specifically, for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, operating income is expected to be 3.389 billion yen, an increase by approximately 80% from 1.887 billion yen in the previous fiscal year, and net income is expected to be 1.846 billion yen, an increase by approximately 129% from 808 million yen in the previous fiscal year, due to an improvement in profit margins due to insourcing of real estate construction and growth in the crowdfunding business, in addition to the growth and expansion of the real estate development business. In addition, the Company’s financial forecasts that constitute the assumptions for PwC’s analysis using the DCF Method do not assume the implementation of the Share Exchange.

 

The share exchange ratio calculation results for each evaluation method when the value per share of CUMICA Shares is set as one are as follows. For SYLA Shares in the market price standard method, since the trading values of SYLA ADSs are quoted in US dollars and 100 SYLA ADSs equal one SYLA Share, the share exchange ratio is calculated upon converting the closing price, the simple average of closing prices, or volume weighted average price for one SYLA ADS to Japanese yen using the U.S. dollar rate (1 USD = 150.74 yen) on the reference date and making a unit conversion by multiplying by 100.

 

 

 

 

Method used   Share exchange ratio calculation range
Market price standard method   66.30 – 79.22
DCF Method   97.55 – 118.04

 

In calculating the above share exchange ratio, PwC has in principle used the information provided by both companies and publicly available information, etc. as-is, and has assumed that all of the materials and information, etc. used are accurate and complete and that there are no facts undisclosed to PwC that could have a material impact on the calculation of the share exchange ratio, and has not independently verified the accuracy and completeness of the materials and information. In addition, PwC has assumed that the information pertaining to the financial forecasts of both companies (including the business plans and other information) has been reasonably prepared based on the best forecasts and judgments available at the present time by the management teams of both companies. Furthermore, PwC has not independently evaluated, appraised, or assessed the assets or liabilities (including off-balance sheet assets and liabilities and other contingent liabilities) of the two companies and their affiliated companies, including the analysis and evaluation of individual assets and liabilities, and has not requested appraisals or assessments from third-party organizations. PwC’s share exchange ratio calculation reflects the information and economic conditions as of November 29, 2024.

 

Furthermore, the sole purpose of PwC’s calculation is to serve as a reference for the Company’s Board of Directors to consider the Share Exchange Ratio.

 

(c) Expected delisting and reasons therefor

 

Since the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of CUMICA on the effective date of June 1, 2025 (scheduled) as a result of the Share Exchange, SYLA ADSs are scheduled to be delisted on May 29, 2025 (U.S. time) after completing the U.S. Nasdaq stock market’s prescribed procedures. After delisting, SYLA ADSs will no longer be able to be traded on the U.S. Nasdaq stock market.

 

The CUMICA Shares to be allotted to the Company’s shareholders through the Share Exchange are listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Standard Market, and trading will be possible on that market even after the Share Exchange, so for the Company’s shareholders who will receive allotment of CUMICA Shares, although there is a possibility that shares less than one unit may be allotted depending on the number of shares held, it will be possible to trade CUMICA Shares of one unit or more on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Standard Market, and it is believed that stock liquidity can be ensured.

 

 

 

 

In order for those holding SYLA ADSs to receive an allotment of CUMICA Shares in the Share Exchange, they must, prior to the effective date of the Share Exchange, receive the SYLA Shares represented by the SYLA ADSs in place of the SYLA ADSs in accordance with the procedures established by The Bank of New York Mellon, the depositary bank for the SYLA ADSs (the “Depositary Bank”). Investors who hold SYLA ADSs as of the effective date will not receive CUMICA Shares in the Share Exchange, but rather, the CUMICA Shares allocated to the Depositary Bank in the Share Exchange (with respect to SYLA Shares represented by the SYLA ADSs) will be sold on the market etc. by the Depositary Bank, and the proceeds from such sale will be delivered to such investors in accordance with the provisions of the deposit agreement related to the SYLA ADSs, in accordance with the percentage of SYLA ADSs held and after predetermined fees and expenses have been excluded. Due to factors such as the aforementioned fees or expenses, fluctuations in the share price of CUMICA Shares after the effective date of the share exchange, and fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Japanese yen and the US dollar, such amount may differ from the market value of CUMICA Shares as of the effective date if SYLA ADSs held as of the effective date are converted using the Share Exchange Ratio.

 

Furthermore, those holding SYLA ADSs will be able to trade their SYLA ADSs as usual on the U.S. Nasdaq stock market until May 28, 2024 (U.S. time) (scheduled), which is the final trading date.

 

(d) Measures to ensure fairness

 

CUMICA and the Company have determined that because the Company already holds 3,688,300 CUMICA Shares (which accounts for 30.58% of the 12,060,300 shares that are the total number of issued shares as of September 30, 2024), CUMICA constitutes an equity method affiliate of the Company, and because there is a relationship between the two companies as described in 4.(13) “Relationship between the companies involved” of the “Notice of Execution of Share Exchange Agreement Related to Management Integration of CUMICA Corporation and SYLA Technologies Co., Ltd., Change of Trade Name, and Partial Amendment of Articles of Incorporation” as of December 2, 2024 (the “Notice as of December 2, 2024”), it is necessary to ensure the fairness of the Share Exchange, and have implemented the following measures to ensure fairness.

 

(i) Acquisition of calculation report from an independent third-party calculation agent

 

CUMICA has appointed StandbyC and the Company has appointed PwC as their respective third-party calculation agents, and each has obtained a calculation report regarding the share exchange ratio from their respective calculation agents. Please see (b) “Matters related to calculation” above for an overview of the calculation report. Neither CUMICA nor the Company have obtained a written opinion from their respective third-party calculation agents stating that the Share Exchange Ratio is appropriate or fair from a financial perspective (a fairness opinion).

 

 

 

 

(ii) Advice from independent law firms

 

CUMICA has appointed TMI as its legal advisor and has received legal advice from TMI regarding the procedures for the Share Exchange and CUMICA’s decision-making methods and processes, etc. TMI is independent from both CUMICA and the Company and has no material interest with respect to CUMICA or the Company.

 

The Company has appointed DTL and AOS as its legal advisors and has received legal advice from DTL and AOS regarding the procedures for the Share Exchange and the Company’s decision-making methods and processes, etc. DTL and AOS are independent from both CUMICA and the Company and have no material interest with respect to CUMICA or the Company.

 

(e) Measures to avoid conflict of interest

 

Because the Company already holds 30.58% of CUMICA’s total number of issued shares, making CUMICA an equity method affiliate of the Company, and because there is a relationship between the two companies as described in 4.(13) “Relationship between the companies involved” of the Notice as of December 2, 2024, in addition to the measures in (d) above, CUMICA has taken the following measures to avoid conflict of interest.

 

(i) Establishment of a special committee

 

In response to receiving the Company’s request for the Share Exchange, on September 18, 2024, because of the risk of a structural conflict of interest with the Company, which is CUMICA’s largest shareholder that is its major shareholder and an otherwise related company and dispatches two directors to it, in relation to the Share Exchange, CUMICA, while receiving advice from its legal advisor TMI, resolved at a meeting of its board of directors held on September 24, 2024 to establish the Special Committee comprising Mr. Nobutake Nishijima and Mr. Akira Shibata, who are CUMICA’s outside directors and independent from the Company, and Mr. Noboru Araki (certified public accountant, KK Bloom Advisory) and Mr. Yoshitaka Obitsu (attorney, Socius Legal Services), who are outside experts without an interest in the Company or CUMICA, and conduct examination of the Share Exchange from a standpoint independent from the Company and CUMICA in order to eliminate the risk of arbitrariness and conflict of interest in the decision-making process for the Share Exchange by CUMICA’s board of directors, ensure the fairness of the Share Exchange, and obtain an opinion as to whether a decision by CUMICA’s board of directors to carry out the Share Exchange would be disadvantageous to minority shareholders. Furthermore, CUMICA has not changed the members of the Special Committee from the four members initially appointed to the Special Committee. In addition, each committee member will be paid fixed remuneration as consideration for their duties, irrespective of the content of the report.

 

Furthermore, when examining the Share Exchange, CUMICA consulted with the Special Committee on (a) matters relating to the reasonableness of the Share Exchange’s purpose (including whether the Share Exchange would contribute to the improvement of CUMICA’s corporate value), (b) matters relating to the appropriateness of the transactions terms and conditions of the Share Exchange (including the appropriateness of the implementation method of the Share Exchange), (c) matters relating to the fairness of the procedures for the Share Exchange (including examining which, and to what extent, measures to ensure fairness should be implemented), and (d) based on (a) to (c) above and other matters, whether the decision by the board of directors of CUMICA to implement the Share Exchange would be disadvantageous for minority shareholders (collectively the “Inquiry Matters”). When CUMICA’s board of directors passed its resolution establishing the Special Committee, it also resolved that ① when making the decision with respect to the Share Exchange, it would give full respect to the opinion of the Special Committee, and if the Special Committee determines that the Share Exchange is not appropriate, it would not make a decision to carry out the Share Exchange and ② CUMICA would grant the Special Committee authority to discuss and negotiate the transaction terms and conditions, etc. of the Share Exchange with the Company. At the same time, the board of directors also resolved that (i) when the Special Committee determines it to be necessary, it may appoint a chair and stipulate other matters regarding the operation of the Special Committee by a resolution of a majority of its members, (ii) the Special Committee may, at CUMICA’s expense, conduct investigations with regard to the Share Exchange (including questioning, or requesting explanations or advice from, CUMICA’s officers and employees related to the Share Exchange and CUMICA’s advisors with respect to the Share Exchange about matters necessary to examine the Inquiry Matters), (iii) the Special Committee may ① itself conduct discussions and negotiations with transaction-related parties (including, but not limited to, the Company and the Company’s advisors with respect to the Share Exchange) and ② the Special Committee may, at its judgment, cause the Company’s officers or employees (limited to those without a risk of conflict of interest) to participate in the above discussions or negotiations, (iv) if the opinion of the Special Committee on the report is not unanimous, the conclusion approved by the majority of the members shall be the content of the report, but any member with an objection to all or part of the content of such report may request that their opinion be noted in the content of the report, (v) even if, from the perspective of convenience of meeting proceedings, a meeting of the Special Committee is attended by an officer or employee of CUMICA, or an advisor of CUMICA with respect to the Share Exchange, the Special Committee may request such attendee to leave as necessary, and (vi) when recognized to be necessary, the Special Committee may, at CUMICA’s expense, appoint its own lawyer, calculation agent, certified public accountant, or other advisors, and the Special Committee may nominate or request the change of CUMICA’s advisors with respect to the Share Exchange, and may also issue necessary directions to CUMICA’s advisors.

 

 

 

 

During the period from September 25, 2024 to November 29, 2024, the Special Committee held a total of 13 meetings, and carefully examined and discussed the Inquiry Matters. Specifically, the Special Committee received explanations from CUMICA regarding the background leading to receipt of the proposal for the Share Exchange, the purpose of the Share Exchange, the business environment, business plans, and management issues, etc., and conducted written and verbal Q&A sessions. The Special Committee also received explanations from the Company regarding the background leading to and reasons for the proposal of the Share Exchange, the purpose of the Share Exchange, the overall group management policy after the Share Exchange, and the various terms and conditions of the Share Exchange, etc., and conducted written and verbal Q&A sessions. In addition, the Special Committee received explanations from CUMICA regarding the details, material assumptions, and background to preparation, etc. of business plans prepared by CUMICA, conducted Q&A sessions, and then confirmed the reasonableness thereof, and gave its approval. Additionally, the Special Committee received explanations from StandbyC regarding the reasons for the calculation methods used for calculation of the share exchange ratio and the results of the calculation of the share exchange ratio in the Share Exchange.

 

The Special Committee also received timely reports on the details and negotiation process, etc. from Mita Securities, which was in charge of negotiations for CUMICA, whenever CUMICA received proposals regarding the Share Exchange Ratio from the Company, and was substantially involved in the negotiation process regarding the transaction terms and conditions of the Share Exchange, such as deliberating and examining the details thereof, and giving directions and making requests to Mita Securities. In addition, the Special Committee received explanations from TMI regarding measures taken to reduce or prevent conflict of interest in the Share Exchange and regarding the Share Exchange.

 

With that background, the Special Committee conducted careful discussion and examination based on these explanations, the results of calculations, and other examination materials, and submitted a report dated December 1, 2024 to CUMICA to the effect that (a) it found the purpose of the Share Exchange to be reasonable (including that the Share Exchange would contribute to the improvement of CUMICA’s corporate value), (b) it found the transaction terms and conditions of the Share Exchange to be appropriate (including that the implementation method of the Share Exchange was appropriate), (c) it found the procedures for the Share Exchange to be fair (including examining which, and to what extent, measures to ensure fairness should be implemented), and (d) based on (a) to (c) above and other matters, the decision of CUMICA’s board of directors to implement the Share Exchange is not disadvantageous to minority shareholders.

 

(ii) Approval by directors excluding those with an interest

 

Among CUMICA’s five directors, Takahide Watanabe is a former director of the Company and Tomoyoshi Uranishi concurrently serves as an independent director of the Company at the present time, so from the perspective of avoiding conflict of interest, Takahide Watanabe and Tomoyoshi Uranishi have not participated in deliberations and resolutions by the CUMICA Board of Directors regarding the Share Exchange and have not participated in discussions and negotiations with the Company regarding the Share Exchange in the capacity of CUMICA.

 

 

 

 

The agenda item at the CUMICA Board of Directors regarding the Share Exchange was approved unanimously by three of the five CUMICA directors, excluding the two aforementioned directors, Takahide Watanabe and Tomoyoshi Uranishi.

 

(2) Reason for Choosing CUMICA shares as Consideration

 

The Company concluded that CUMICA shares are appropriate as consideration of the Share Exchange in light of the fact that CUMICA shares to be allotted to the shareholders of the Company through the Share Exchange will continue to be listed on the Tokyo Exchange Standard Market even after the delisting of the SYLA Shares with liquidity and cash convertibility and, therefore, the opportunity to trade shares would be ensured and the fact that shareholders of the Company to hold CUMICA shares would be able to enjoy synergy effects resulting from the Company being the wholly-owned subsidiary of CUMICA through the Share Exchange etc.

 

(3) Matters Concerning Appropriateness of the Amounts of Stated Capital and Reserves of CUMICA as Share Exchange Wholly-Owning Parent Company

 

The amounts of the stated capital and capital reserves of CUMICA to increase as result of the Share Exchange are as below. These amounts are determined, in light of financial situation, capital policy, and other factors of CUMICA, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, and we believe it as appropriate.

 

Increase in stated capital: 0 yen

 

Increase in capital reserves: such amount as separately determined by CUMICA pursuant to Article 39 of the Companies Accounting Rules

 

Increase in retained earnings reserves: 0 yen

(Note 1) The class of underlying shares is SYLA Shares. The above table presents the number of shares to be acquired that is obtained by multiplying the number of shares of the underlying SYLA Shares per share option for each series by the number of stock acquisition rights.

 

(Note 2) The exercise price of a share option is the amount to be paid per share upon exercise of the share option. It may be subject to adjustment.

 

(Note 3) If any of the stock acquisition rights issued by SYLA that are exercisable are exercised, the number of stock acquisition rights issued by CUMICA and the number of underlying shares to be issued upon exercise of such stock acquisition rights will decrease in proportion to the number of such stock acquisition rights exercised.

 

(Note 4) The class of underlying shares is CUMICA Shares. The above table presents the number of shares to be acquired that is obtained by multiplying the number of shares of the underlying CUMICA Shares per share option for each series by the number of stock acquisition rights.

 

In the Share Exchange, as set forth in the above table, CUMICA will respectively allot Series 1 through Series 8 stock acquisition rights issued by CUMICA to the share option holders pertaining to the Series 1 and Series 4 to 10 stock acquisition rights issued by the Company as of the Reference Time for each such share option that they hold based on the details of each share option and the share exchange ratio of the Share Exchange. Please see the exhibits of the Share Exchange Agreement described in 2 “Details of the Share Exchange Agreement” above for the details of the Series 1 through Series 8 stock acquisition rights.

 

 

 

 

The time limit for exercise of the Series 3 stock acquisition rights issued by the Company is December 30, 2024, and because they will be extinguished before the Share Exchange takes effect, whether or not the stock acquisition rights are exercised, they are not subject to allotment of CUMICA’s stock acquisition rights.

 

Through this process, CUMICA plans to acquire in the Share Exchange the Series 1 and Series 4 to 10 stock acquisition rights issued by the Company as of the Reference Time and at the same time allot and deliver newly issued Series 1 through Series 8 CUMICA stock acquisition rights. CUMICA plans to cancel the above acquired Series 1 and Series 4 to 10 stock acquisition rights issued by the Company.

 

Accordingly, we concluded that the details and number of the stock acquisition rights to be issued by CUMICA are appropriate as such details and number are substantial equivalent to those of the stock acquisition rights issued by the Company.
