Representative: Shigeko Okazaki, President and CEO Stock code: 7864 TSE Prime Contact: Fumitaka Goto, IR Division Manager TEL: +81-6-6350-1080 Notice Concerning of Introduction an incentive plan for Employees Fuji Seal International, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby announces that it has decided to introduce an incentive plan (the “Plan”) for global employees, which was resolved at a meeting of the board of directors held on May 13, 2025. Details regarding the implementation timing, duration, and total value of shares to be acquired under this plan will be disclosed as soon as it is determined. 1. Regarding the introducing the Plan 1) The Company has introduced the Plan with the aim of enhancing engagement among employees, both domestic and international, who are responsible for the execution of its business plan called “FSG.30.” as well as to attract and retain talented personnel. Moreover, the plan is intended to promote their heightened awareness of medium- to long-term results. 2) The Plan adopts the ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) Trust system (the ESOP Trust). The ESOP Trust is an employee incentive plan modeled after the ESOP system in the United States. Under this plan, shares of the Company acquired by the ESOP Trust are granted to employees who meet certain predetermined criteria, in accordance with the provisions set forth in the stock grant rules established in advance. It should be noted that all funds required for the acquisition of the Company’s shares by the ESOP Trust will be contributed by the Company, and therefore, no financial burden will be placed on the employees. 3) Through the introduction of the Plan, employees will be able to receive economic benefits linked to increases in the Company’s stock price, which is expected to encourage greater awareness of stock performance in the execution of their duties and to enhance their motivation to work. In addition, voting rights associated with the Company’s shares held as trust assets under the ESOP Trust are exercised in a manner that reflects the intentions of employees who are prospective beneficiaries. This framework is considered an effective means of increasing corporate value by promoting employees’ participation in corporate management. 2.
