[Comment from Mr. Higuchi]
I will continue to contribute mainly to the Company’s compliance and risk management by using my experience mainly in providing direction in investigations of corporate crimes and incidents involving organized crime groups as Chief of Police but also as manager of the Second Investigation Division of the National Police Agency, the Metropolitan Police Department, the Osaka Prefectural Police and the Tokushima Prefectural Police, as well as my experience in providing advice to consultation to companies and organizations regarding primarily actions to be taken in the event of a scandal and responses to antisocial forces after my retirement from the police.
