Notice Regarding Completion of Payment for Disposal of Treasury Stock through a Third-Party Allotment and a Change in Principal Shareholder

Capcom Co., Ltd. (the Company, below) hereby announces that payment procedures were completed today for the disposal of treasury stock through a third-party allotment accompanying the establishment of a stock grant ESOP trust (the Disposal, below), which was approved at the Board of Directors meeting held on May 13, 2022.

For details regarding this matter, please refer to the May 13, 2022 announcement, “Notice Regarding Disposal of Treasury Stock through a Third-Party Allotment and a Change in Principal Shareholder.”

Further, due to the Disposal, as of today there has been a change in a principal shareholder. Details are as follows.

(2) Class and number of
shares to be disposed
4,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock
(3) Disposal price 3,455 yen per share

(6) Treasury stock following the Disposal 53,393,862 shares
(The treasury stock following the Disposal listed above is based on the treasury stock as of May 12, 2022.)

II. Change in Principal Shareholder

1. Background

Following the Disposal outlined above in “I. Outline of the Disposal,” a principal shareholder of the Company, Crossroad Co., Ltd., is no longer a principal shareholder because, while their number of shares held has not changed, their percentage of total voting rights outstanding has changed from 10.01% to 9.83%.

However, in accordance with the Company’s June 14, 2022 announcement, “Notice Regarding the Results of Tender Offer for Repurchase of Own Shares, the Completion of Repurchase by the Company of its Own Shares and a Change in Principal Shareholder,” as a result of the Company implementing the tender offer for the repurchase of its own shares described in that same announcement (the Tender Offer, below) and acquiring its own shares, due to the total voting rights outstanding decreasing, the ratio of the number of voting rights held by Crossroad Co., Ltd. to the total outstanding voting rights will relatively increase. Accordingly, the Company anticipates that as of July 5, 2022 (the settlement commencement date of the Tender Offer), Crossroad Co., Ltd. will once again become a principal shareholder of the Company.

2. Summary of Change in Shareholder

① Name Crossroad Co., Ltd.
② Address 5-2-15, Eganosho, Habikino City, Osaka
③ Representative name and title Yoshiyuki Tsujimoto, President
④ Principle business Asset management company
⑤ Paid-in capital 10 million yen
