Our company has issued decarbonization contribution private placement bonds at Minato Bank
and donated a portion of the issuance fees to the Hyogo Prefecture Greening Promotion Association.

As part of our efforts towards decarbonized management, we are working to make our equipment
more energy efficient by introducing LED lighting and power-saving machinery, and to develop
products with low friction resistance that reduces energy consumption.

We will continue to do what we can to help realize the decarbonized society that the government
is promoting.
