Announcement of Third-Party Allotment of Treasury Stock Based on Stock Compensation Plan

TOKYO, Japan – November 26, 2014 – ORIX Corporation (the “Company”), a leading integrated financial services group, announced that it has decided to dispose of treasury stock through a third-party allotment (the “Disposal”) in accordance with the stock compensation plan for the directors and executive officers of the Company and group executives on November 25, 2014. The details follow below.

(3)

(5)

 

Subscription or disposal method

(Allottee)

  

By third-party allotment

(Yoshihiko Miyauchi, all shares to be disposed of)

 

2. Purpose of, and Reasons for the Disposal

The Company has adopted a stock compensation plan for the directors and executive officers of the Company and the executives of the Company’s group companies.

The Disposal is being conducted for the purpose of granting the Company’s shares as stock compensation to Yoshihiko Miyauchi, with his retirement as Director, Representative Executive Officer, and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer as of June 24, 2014.

 

* Under this stock compensation plan, the directors and executive officers of the Company and the executives of the Company’s group companies are granted points annually while in office based on the standard set forth by the Compensation Committee and, on and after their resignation, are provided with an amount of compensation equal to the accumulated number of points multiplied by the market share price. By using such compensation, the resigned directors and executives are obliged to purchase shares from the Company at the market share price.

 

3. Amount, Use, and Anticipated Time of Use of Funds Raised

 

  (1) Amount of funds raised

 

(i)    Aggregate amount to be paid    711,379,200 yen
(ii)    Estimated costs of disposal    5,000,000 yen
(iii)    Estimated net proceeds    706,379,200 yen

 

* The estimated disposal costs above consist of the estimated cost of documentation, etc.

 

  (2) Specific use and anticipated time of use of funds raised

As described in 2. above, the Disposal is based on the stock compensation plan for the directors and executive officers of the Company and the executives of the Company’s group companies; therefore, fundraising is not the main purpose of the Disposal. Also, since the allottee will pay for the treasury stock using the funds that he is provided with in advance by the Company in accordance with the stock compensation plan, no funds will be raised externally.


Table of Contents
4. Perspective on Reasons for Use of Funds

No funds will be raised externally because the treasury stock will be paid for using the funds that the Company provides in advance in accordance with the stock compensation plan. The Company considers that it is reasonable that all of the funds raised by the Disposal will be allocated to working capital, as it will contribute to the Company’s business operations.

 

5. Reasonableness of Disposal Terms

 

  (1) Basis and details for calculating the amount to be paid

The amount to be paid per share was determined to be 1,659 yen, which represents a 7.55% premium against the closing price for the regular trading of common shares of the Company (the “Closing Price”) on the Tokyo Stock Exchange (the “TSE”) as of the date of the decision of the Representative Executive Officer regarding the Disposal (November 25, 2014).

Such amount to be paid per share was determined in accordance with the method for calculating the disposal amount per share as the average Closing Price (rounded upwards to the nearest yen) on the TSE for the 30 trading days commencing 45 days preceding, and not including, the day on which the terms of the disposal of treasury stock to the relevant directors and executive officers are determined (such day, the “Determination Date”); provided, however, that if the above amount is less than either the Closing Price on the Determination Date or that on the date on which the relevant directors and executive officers retire, then the disposal amount per share shall be the highest of the three prices. The Company considers that this calculation method is reasonable because arbitrariness can be excluded with this method, which is based on the market price immediately before the date of the decision of the amount to be paid, and set the highest of more than one price, comparing the market prices at specific dates and the average market prices in specific periods.

In addition, the amount to be paid per share for the Disposal represents, respectively, a 8.43% premium against 1,530 yen (rounded upwards to the nearest yen), the average of the Closing Prices on the TSE for the one-month period preceding the Determination Date (from October 26, 2014, to November 25, 2014) ; a 10.82% premium against 1,497 yen (rounded upwards to the nearest yen), the average of the Closing Prices on the TSE for the three-month period preceding the Determination Date (from August 26, 2014, to November 25, 2014); and a 6.14% premium against 1,563 yen (rounded upwards to the nearest yen), the average of the Closing Prices on the TSE for the six-month period preceding the Determination Date (from May 26, 2014, to November 25, 2014). Taking into consideration this data, the Representative Executive Officer has determined that such amount to be paid per share is reasonable and does not fall within a specially favorable price.

 

  (2) Reasons for the judgment that the number of shares to be issued and level of dilution of shares are reasonable

The total number of treasury stock to be disposed of through the Disposal is 428,800 shares (number of voting rights: 4,288), and the ratio to the total number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company as of September 30, 2014 (not including treasury stock of the Company) is 0.03% (ratio in voting rights: 0.03%) (rounded down to the second decimal place).


Table of Contents

The Disposal is based on the stock compensation plan for the directors and executive officers of the Company and the executives of the Company’s group companies. The Company considers that the dilution caused by the Disposal is within a reasonable extent and that there will only be a minor impact on the trading market, taking into consideration the fact that the Compensation Committee of the Company duly decided the amount of such compensation and the method for calculation of the number of shares to be allotted, and the amount to be paid exceeds the price judged to appropriately reflect the value of the shares of the Company as described in (1) above, and the dilution ratio of the Disposal to the total number of issued and outstanding shares (not including treasury stock of the Company) is 0.03%.

 

6. Reasons for Selecting Allottee and other related matters

 

  (1) Overview of the allottee

 

(i)    Name    Yoshihiko Miyauchi
(ii)    Address    Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo (Japan)
(iii)    Title   

Senior Chairman

(ex- Director, Representative Executive Officer, and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (retired in June 24, 2014))

(iv)    Relationship between the Company and the allottee    As of September 30, 2014, Mr. Miyauchi holds 393,800 shares of common stock of the Company. Further, he retired as Director, Representative Executive Officer, and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company on June 24, 2014, and took office as Senior Chairman on the same day. Other than the above mentioned matters, there is no capital, personal or business relationship between the Company and Mr. Miyauchi (including his relatives, companies, etc. of which a majority stake is owned by Mr. Miyauchi and/or his relatives, and the subsidiaries of the companies, etc. of which a majority stake is owned by Mr. Miyauchi and/or his relatives), which shall be described herein. In addition, the affiliates and affiliate companies of the Company do not have any special capital, personal or business relationship with Mr. Miyauchi or his affiliates and affiliate companies.

 

* Mr. Yoshihiko Miyauchi, the allottee, joined the Company in April 1964, was appointed as the Representative Director, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company in December 1980, the Representative Director, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company in April 2000, and the Director, Representative Executive Officer, and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company in June 2003, respectively, and resigned from the last office at the end of the annual shareholders meeting held on June 24, 2014. He currently serves as the Senior Chairman of the Company. In light of his position and career above, the Company judges that he is not a member of antisocial forces and does not have any relationship with antisocial forces, and accordingly submitted a confirmation letter to that effect to the TSE.

 

  (2) Reasons for selecting the allottee

With respect to the reasons for selecting the allottee, please see 2. above.

 

  (3) Allottee’s policy on holding shares

The Company has confirmed that the allottee intends to hold the disposed shares of the Company for the medium-and-long term.

The Company will obtain a confirmation letter by which it is agreed that, if the allottee transfers all or a part of such shares within two years after the disposal date, such allottee will report the details of the transfer to the Company in writing, the Company will report the substance of such report to the TSE and such allottee will consent to the substance of such report being made available for public inspection.

  (4) Confirmed facts regarding the existence of assets necessary for payment by the allottee

Since the allottee will pay for the treasury stock using the funds that he is provided with in advance by the Company, the Company considers that there will be no problem with respect to the funds required for the payment of the Disposal.
