Q: Who do I contact with inquiries concerning stock procedures?
A: For change of address and other submissions or inquiries, please contact the securities firm with which you have an account. We have established a special account with Mizuho Trust & Banking for shareholders who did not deposit their stock certificates with the Japan Securities Depository Center, Incorporated (JSDC) via their securities firm prior to the digitization of stock certificates. As such, please contact Mizuho Trust & Banking, which serves as the administrator of our shareholder ledger.
Q: What is a special account?
A: An account we established to secure the rights of shareholders (right to exercise voting rights at the General Meeting of Shareholders, right to receive dividends, etc.) who did not secure their stock certificates with the JSDC prior to the digitization of stock certificates.
Special accounts are provisional accounts for securing shareholder rights, and may not be used to sell stock.
To sell stock, the individual shareholder must create an account with a securities firm and conduct procedures to transfer their stock to that account.
Q: My address changed. What procedures are required?
A: Failure to provide notification following a change of address could result in the inability to provide shareholder notices via postal mail. As such, please inquire with your securities firm.
Furthermore, shareholders who did not deposit their stock certificates with the JSDC via their securities firm prior to the digitization of stock certificates should contact Mizuho Trust & Banking.
Q: I lost my dividend receipt or postal transfer payment notice. What should I do?
A: Even if you have lost your dividend receipt or postal transfer payment notice, dividends can still be paid out if you perform certain procedures. Please contact Mizuho Trust & Banking for details.
Q: My dividend receipt or postal transfer payment notice payment deadline has expired. What should I do?
A: You can receive dividends directly by presenting the expired dividend receipt or postal transfer payment notice to a teller at the main bank or branch of the Mizuho Trust & Banking.
These can also be processed by postal mail. Affix your name seal to the registered seal or receipt seal column of the cover page (for postal transfer payment notices, this is the "recipient's seal" column), and fill out the method of receipt and other required information on the reverse side of the form. Then, send the form to Mizuho Trust & Banking. The dividend receipt or postal transfer payment notice is valid for three years.
Furthermore, to ensure the safe and certain receipt of dividends, we recommend setting up your account to receive for dividends via transfer to your bank or Japan Post Bank account.
For details, please inquire with your securities firm.
Q: I want to have dividends transfer to my bank or my Japan Post account (change or transfer account). What should I do?
