Establishment of a Structure for the Elimination of Anti-Social Forces

The Asset Management Company has formulated a compliance manual to serve as the basic policies to which all executives and employees are required to adhere, and ensuring practice in accordance with the compliance manual is one of the key responsibilities of the Asset Management Company. The code of behavior in the Compliance Manual stipulates "We shall resolutely confront anti-social forces and associations" and sets forth the Asset Management Company's basic stance concerning the elimination of anti-social forces.

Additionally, the Asset Management Company has selected a person to be responsible for the prevention of unreasonable demands in accordance with the Act on Prevention of Unjust Acts by Organized Crime Group Members, and has registered with the public safety commission in order to acquire the necessary knowledge and skill to handle unreasonable demands by crime syndicates.

Furthermore, selecting new tenants, we are endeavoring to eliminate anti-social forces by checking for relationships with anti-social forces in accordance with established standards.

Procedures for the "Reporting system of suspicious transactions" are formulated as part of Operational Guidelines and, in accordance with the Act on Prevention of Transfer of Criminal Proceeds, we routinely undertake "confirmation at time of transaction," "creation and maintenance of records of confirmation at time of transaction" and "creation and maintenance of records of transactions" as well as properly reporting suspicious transactions to the supervisory authorities.
