fluctuate depending on the levels of achievement of the mid- to long-term operating performance targets of
Epson. Furthermore, Epson shares, which correspond to a certain proportion of such points, will be delivered to
the Eligible Officers, in principle, after the lapse of three years following the awarding of points. As regards
Epson shares corresponding to the remaining portion of points, the Eligible Officers will receive cash equivalent
to the amounts obtained through the conversion of such shares into cash within the Trust as prescribed in the
trust agreement.
7) If residual shares remain in the Trust at the expiry of the trust period in the event that operating performance
targets are not met during the trust period, Epson may continue to use the Trust by amending the trust
agreement and making additional contribution. Otherwise, Epson will acquire such residual shares, through
gratis transfer, and retire them by resolution of the Board of Directors.
8) Upon the termination of the Trust, residual assets remaining after allocation to beneficiaries are to be attributed
to Epson within the scope of trust expense reserve after subtracting funds for acquiring shares from the trust
money. The portion exceeding the trust expense reserve is planned to be donated to organization(s) having no
interests with Epson and any of its officers.
Note: The Trustor may continue the Plan by contributing additional money as funds for acquiring its own shares
for the Trust within the scope of the funds for acquiring shares, of which the amount is subject to approval
by resolution at the General Meeting of Shareholders.
