Repurchase or Sale of Odd-lot Shares

If you own shares in a lot of less than 100 (odd-lot shares), you have the following options for adjusting your holdings.
If your shares are held in an account with a securities broker, please contact your securities broker directly. If your shares are held in a special account and you do not have an account with a securities broker, please contact the special account administrator.

• The trading unit of the shares was amended from 1,000 shares to 100 shares on October 1,　2011.

Repurchase of odd-lot shares by Sompo Holdings

You cannot trade less than 100 shares on a securities exchange, but you can sell your odd-lot shares directly to Sompo Holdings.

Purchase of shares by you to cover a round-lot shortfall

You cannot trade less than 100 shares on a securities exchange, but you can purchase the number of shares you require to make up a round lot of 100 shares directly from Sompo Holdings.

Transferring Shares Out of Special Accounts

If you are a shareholder but do not have an account with a securities broker, your shares are held in a special account set up by us in your name. Shares cannot be traded via special accounts except when selling odd-lot shares back to us or requesting the sale of shares from us to cover a round-lot shortfall. If you have shares in a special account, we therefore urge you to open an account in your name with a securities broker and transfer your shares into it as soon as possible.
For details, please contact the special account administrator(s) shown above.
