<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>On the business side of things, current Enix chairman Yasuhiro Fukushima will serve as the chairman of the company with current Square president Wada Youchi assuming the new president role. Current Enix president Keiji Honda will be the vice president with Square's Hisashi Suzuki serving as a special director to the firm. The firm's main office will find itself in Enix's current main office in Tokyo's Shibuya ward. As a consequence of the stock swap involved in the merger, Enix shareholders will own 55% of the new company.

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>No, it's Enix chairman as head honcho, Square pres as pres, and Enix pres as vice pres. Also, Sony will own 8% of the new company. Guess where DQ8 is headed...</div>
