Effective date
As of September 25, 2020
Reason for the Adjustment
The terms and conditions of the Bonds (the “Terms”) stipulate that the conversion price will be adjusted in the event a tender offer for common shares of the Company is launched with the intent of delisting such shares, and common shares of the Company are acquired through such tender offer. As announced in “Announcement of Opinion Regarding the Joint Tender Offer for the Shares of LINE Corporation by SoftBank Corp. and NAVER J. Hub Corporation, a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of NAVER Corporation, the Controlling Shareholder of LINE Corporation,” dated August 3, 2020, the joint tender offer was intended to give rise to such a delisting of the common shares of the Company. Therefore, upon the settlement of the tender offer, the conversion price will be adjusted in accordance with the Terms regarding the adjustment of the conversion price as per the above.
