Absorption-Type Merger Agreement

The Company and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) are advancing their Beyond Carrier strategy to continuously increase its shareholder value in the rapidly evolving information and communications sector. At the same time, the Group is streamlining its management through structural reforms. In order to streamline our organization and business operations and improve the efficiency of management resources across the Group, we have decided to proceed with the absorption merger of Shiodome Mobile, the wholly-owned subsidiary that provides and resells mobile data communication lines. Shiodome Mobile provided mobile Wi-Fi routers, but stopped accepting new apps from the service in February 2016 due to a change in its parent company. With the increase in mobile options, Shiodome Mobile felt that it would be difficult to provide stable services in the future due to a decline in the number of customers and the launch of 5G, and decided to discontinue the service on March 31, 2021. (2) Merger methodKurita Engineering is dissolved by an absorption merger in which the company is the surviving company. 4. Statute of the company after the merger The name, place, title and name of the agent, the description of the company, the capital and the end of the financial year of the company do not change after the merger. 5. Impact on business development The impact of this merger on the company`s business performance is negligible on both a consolidated and unconsolidated basis. Forecasts of corporate performance on a consolidated basis for the year ending March 2021 have not yet been determined, as it is difficult to make reasonable forecasts given the spread of Covid-19. We will publish the forecast as soon as it is ready. As this is a merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, the impact of the merger on the Company`s consolidated results of operations is negligible.

Since the merger is a simplified absorption merger pursuant to Article 796(2) of the Companies Law in respect of the company and an abridged merger pursuant to Article 784(1) of that law as regards Shiodome Mobile, the merger agreement is approved without convening the general meeting of shareholders of both companies. (3) Merger AllocationsTo the extent that Kurita Engineering is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, no allocation of shares or other monetary assets will be made as a result of the Merger. Given that the merger involves a merger of SBG`s wholly-owned subsidiary, the impact of the merger on SBG`s consolidated financial results will be small. SoftBank Group Corp (“SBG”) announced today that its Board of Directors has decided to merge its wholly-owned subsidiary Net Culture GK (“Net Culture”) in an absorption merger (the “Merger”) effective July 1, 2021 as follows.
