Hiroto Saikawa (Code No
<Translation> December 17, 2018 Company Name: Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. Representative Director and President: Hiroto Saikawa (Code No. 7201, Tokyo Stock Exchange First Section) Contact person: Joji Tagawa, Corporate Vice President, IR Department (TEL 045-523-5523) Nissan Announces Creation of Special Committee for Improving Governance Nissan deeply apologizes for the great concern caused by the acts of serious misconduct by the former Chairman and former Representative Directors of Nissan. Nissan is taking this matter very seriously, and on November 22, 2018, upon considering a proposal to establish a committee with respect to Nissan’s governance management system, legal compliance and better governance of director compensation which would appropriately take advice from independent third parties, Nissan’s Board of Directors approved to delegate the task of moving this forward to the three independent outside directors, Masakazu Toyoda, Keiko Ihara and Jean- Baptiste Duzan. Today, based on the recommendations by this committee of Nissan’s independent outside directors, a Special Committee for Improving Governance incorporating external independent experts, has been formed as follows. 1. Purpose of the Special Committee for Improving Governance Based on the results of the investigation conducted with the retention of external attorneys into the acts of serious misconduct by the former Chairman and former Representative Directors of Nissan, the Special Committee for Improving Governance shall, upon ascertaining the root causes behind Nissan’s governance issues which led to the misstatements in Nissan’s annual securities reports, provide recommendations for the improvement of Nissan’s governance commencing with Nissan’s approval process for determining director compensation and recommendations to create a healthy state of governance as a foundation for sustainable business in a leading global company.

New Authenticated Encryption Algorithm Features Robust Resistance to Multiple Misuse
Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation Mitsubishi Electric Corporation New Authenticated Encryption Algorithm Features Robust Resistance to Multiple Misuse TOKYO, March 17, 2014 – Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation (TOKYO: 9432) and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today that in collaboration with the University of Fukui they have jointly developed an authenticated encryption algorithm offering robust resistance to multiple misuse. The algorithm has been entered in the Competition for Authenticated Encryption: Security, Applicability, and Robustness (CAESAR) project, based on which the algorithm is expected to be deployed for increasingly secure and reliable information technology. The new algorithm’s major advantage is its resistance to multiple misuse in authenticated encryption operations that provide simultaneous confidentiality and integrity. One problem of misuse is an attacker making a fake message if plaintexts are released before their integrity is verified. Once a conventional system outputs decrypted plaintext from tampered data without authentication, the attacker can show tampered data as being non-tampered. Whereas this occurs with many conventional systems, the new algorithm fixes the problem, thereby enabling relatively low-memory devices to handle large-volume data. Another typical problem is the reuse of nonce. In the case of a common authentication algorithm called Advanced Encryption Standard with Galois Counter Mode (AES-GCM), a non-repeatable special parameter, or nonce, is required to achieve security. However, the algorithm is largely bleached if the nonce is reused, so the new algorithm fixes this problem to maintain security even after multiple reuse. The new algorithm accepts messages longer than the 64-gigabyte limit of AES-GCM, and it works faster than AES-GCM on many platforms.
