Japanese Manufacturing Affiliates in Europe and Turkey
06-ORD 70H-002AA 7 Japanese Manufacturing Affiliates in Europe and Turkey - 2005 Survey - September 2006 Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) Preface The survey on “Japanese manufacturing affiliates in Europe and Turkey” has been conducted 22 times since the first survey in 1983*. The latest survey, carried out from January 2006 to February 2006 targeting 16 countries in Western Europe, 8 countries in Central and Eastern Europe, and Turkey, focused on business trends and future prospects in each country, procurement of materials, production, sales, and management problems, effects of EU environmental regulations, etc. The survey revealed that as of the end of 2005 there were a total of 1,008 Japanese manufacturing affiliates operating in the surveyed region --- 818 in Western Europe, 174 in Central and Eastern Europe, and 16 in Turkey. Of this total, 291 affiliates --- 284 in Western Europe, 6 in Central and Eastern Europe, and 1 in Turkey --- also operate R & D or design centers. Also, the number of Japanese affiliates who operate only R & D or design centers in the surveyed region (no manufacturing operations) totaled 129 affiliates --- 125 in Western Europe and 4 in Central and Eastern Europe. In this survey we put emphasis on the effects of EU environmental regulations on Japanese manufacturing affiliates. We would like to express our great appreciation to the affiliates concerned for their kind cooperation, which have enabled us over the years to constantly improve the survey and report on the results. We hope that the affiliates and those who are interested in business development in Europe and/or Turkey will find this report useful. -

Methods: This prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded-endpoint, multicenter, parallel-group, comparative study included 340 subjects with T2DM and no history of apparent CVD recruited at 24 clinical units. Subjects were randomly allocated to either the tofoglifozin treatment group (n 169) or conventional treatment group using drugs other than SGLT2 inhibitors (n 171). Primary outcomes were changes= in mean and maximum common carotid IMT measured by echography during= a 104-week treatment period. Results: In a mixed-efects model for repeated measures, the mean IMT of the common carotid artery (mean- IMT-CCA), along with the right and left maximum IMT of the CCA (max-IMT-CCA), signifcantly declined in both the tofoglifozin ( 0.132 mm, SE 0.007; 0.163 mm, SE 0.013; 0.170 mm, SE 0.020, respectively) and the control group ( 0.140 mm,− SE 0.006; 0.190 mm,− SE 0.012; 0.190 mm,− SE 0.020, respectively). -

ESG in Japan: Misunderstood & Underestimated
ESG in Japan: Misunderstood & Underestimated Comgest’s investment approach is grounded on thorough fundamental analysis carried out by experienced portfolio managers located in the markets where they invest. Seasoned investors who spend years researching and building relationships with local companies develop an understanding of cultural and regional nuances that are not obvious to outsiders. We believe this leads to perceptive investment insights that few other firms can match. This white paper, authored by Comgest PM Richard Kaye who has spent almost three decades living and investing in Japan, illustrates how experienced local investors can spot opportunities that others miss. Richard Kaye Analyst / Portfolio Manager, Japan Japan is in the process of being rediscovered after a “lost generation” in which it was largely neglected by both domestic Richard Kaye joined Comgest in 2009 and international asset allocators. However, despite the renewed and is a Tokyo-based Analyst and interest in this fascinating and broad market, international investors Portfolio Manager specialising in remain wary of corporate Japan’s ESG credentials. Japanese Japanese equities. With a wealth of companies have a reputation for being behind their global experience in Japanese equities, peers when it comes to ESG activities and transparency. We Richard became co-lead of Comgest’s believe that this characterisation is misleading: many Japanese Japan equity strategy upon joining the companies appear to be ahead of the rest of the world in terms of Group.

Response: Just Eat Takeaway.Com N. V
NON- CONFIDENTIAL JUST EAT TAKEAWAY.COM Submission to the CMA in response to its request for views on its Provisional Findings in relation to the Amazon/Deliveroo merger inquiry 1 INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND 1. In line with the Notice of provisional findings made under Rule 11.3 of the Competition and Markets Authority ("CMA") Rules of Procedure published on the CMA website, Just Eat Takeaway.com N.V. ("JETA") submits its views on the provisional findings of the CMA dated 16 April 2020 (the "Provisional Findings") regarding the anticipated acquisition by Amazon.com BV Investment Holding LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amazon.com, Inc. ("Amazon") of certain rights and minority shareholding of Roofoods Ltd ("Deliveroo") (the "Transaction"). 2. In the Provisional Findings, the CMA has concluded that the Transaction would not be expected to result in a substantial lessening of competition ("SLC") in either the market for online restaurant platforms or the market for online convenience groceries ("OCG")1 on the basis that, as a result of the Coronavirus ("COVID-19") crisis, Deliveroo is likely to exit the market unless it receives the additional funding available through the Transaction. The CMA has also provisionally found that no less anti-competitive investors were available. 3. JETA considers that this is an unprecedented decision by the CMA and questions whether it is appropriate in the current market circumstances. In its Phase 1 Decision, dated 11 December 20192, the CMA found that the Transaction gives rise to a realistic prospect of an SLC as a result of horizontal effects in the supply of food platforms and OCG in the UK. -

[Translation] CONVOCATION NOTICE OF THE 14TH ORDINARY GENERAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS For the Fiscal Year Ended March 31, 2019 Daiichi Sankyo Company, Limited *Note: This translation does not include pictures, charts etc. originally issued in the Japanese version. - 1 - [Translation] To Our Shareholders At the Daiichi Sankyo Group (“the Group”), we are proceeding with the initiatives of 4th mid- term business plan with the aim of becoming a “Global Pharma Innovator with Competitive Advantage in Oncology” as set forth in our 2025 Vision. In fiscal 2018, we made significant progress in developing new drugs in oncology area, including DS-8201, an antibody drug conjugates utilizing our proprietary technologies. In addition, we entered into a strategic collaboration agreement with AstraZeneca, which has strengths in the oncology business, for the global development and commercialization of DS-8201 in order to maximize its value. Furthermore, sales of mainstay products such as edoxaban, an anticoagulant which supports current earnings of the Group, were firm in Japan and overseas. The achievement of initial target of mid-term business plan for fiscal 2020 is expected to be delayed by two years due to failure of achievement of the plan for pain franchise business and additional investments in research and development. However, we are gaining confidence of achieving our 2025 Vision and accelerating growth in the future due to the significant improvement in the value of oncology area pipelines. We will continue to make every effort to achieve the goals of the Medium-Term Management Plan and 2025 Vision. I greatly appreciate your continued support in the future. -
