The preliminary information on the disposal of assets were obtained from an email on July 13, 2022, In the e-mailthat the authorized director has notified his resignation with effect from July 12, 2022. The Company has contacted that director by email requesting his cooperation in clarifying additional information of such transaction and delivering all relevant sales documents to the Company. Until now, the company has not yet received any cooperation from him in providing information and sales documents. However, the company is not complacent about this circumstance, the company has taken urgent action as follows:

  1. The parent company located in Hong Kong, which is a shareholder of subsidiaries in Japan, had a resolution to appoint a new authorized director to replace the resigned director. Currently, the registration process for appointing a new director is in progress. (The change registration is expected to be completed on September 2022)
  2. Contacted a lawyer in Japan to seek legal advice and to find the correct course of action for the Sales of assets. With regard to the legal opinion that the director has proceeded to sell the company's assets without consulting or notifying the company and proceeding of such transaction was not complying with the power authorization of directors in subsidiaries. The company would like to clarify that in the past the company has a definite policy and has set a clear internal control system and had already notified the director as a guideline of authorization for the subsidiary companies. Furthermore, the company has informed him by email dated on June 19, 2022 notifying that he cannot proceed any binding action and agreements. He need
