Minebea Co., Ltd.

The details of the resolution are described below. I. The reason for issuing stock options for Directors Compensation In line with the review of the director's remuneration system, the Company decided a partial revision of the system of remuneration (issuing stock options for Directors Compensation), for the purpose of making the link between the Company's business performance and stock value clearer in the director's remuneration system, giving them greater motivation to make contributions to improve business performance and increase enterprise value in the medium and long run, and facilitating their sense of sharing value with shareholders.

Any fractional shares resulting from the adjustment mentioned above shall be rounded off. 4. Amount of assets to be contributed upon the exercise of stock acquisition rights The investment for each stock acquisition right shall be made in the form of cash and the amount of assets to be contributed upon the exercise of each stock acquisition right shall be determined by multiplying the per-share value by the Number of Allotted Shares, where the value per share to be received by the exercise of each stock acquisition right shall be ¥1. 5.
