PRESS RELEASE

Enhancement of Employee Benefits for SECOM Group Employee Stock Ownership Plan
Implementation of Special Incentive Payments and Increase in Incentive Grant Rates

SECOM Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya, Tokyo; President: Yasuyuki Yoshida) (“SECOM”) and some of its subsidiaries (SECOM and such subsidiaries, individually a “Group Company” and collectively the “Group Companies”) resolved to implement measures (the “Promotion Measures”) that (i) provide the employees of the Group Companies who are members (“Members”) of the SECOM Group Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the “Plan”) with special incentive payments to give them the opportunity to acquire 10 shares of common stock of SECOM (“SECOM Shares”) per Member and (ii) increase the rate of incentive grants.

1. Provision of Special Incentive Payments

(1) Purpose and Details of Provision
As part of their respective employee benefits programs, the Group Companies currently provide incentive payments for the Plan to support their respective employees in building assets through the ownership of SECOM Shares. In order to further enhance the attractiveness of the Plan and encourage more employees to join the Plan and thereby enhance the employee benefits of the Group Companies, each of the Group Companies will provide special incentive payments equivalent to 10 shares of SECOM Shares per Member to all of the Members that fulfill certain eligibility criteria.

  1. ① Each Group Company will provide the special incentive payments to its employees who are Members.
  2. ② The Members will contribute the special incentive payments they receive to the Plan.
  3. ③ The Plan will pool the special incentive payments contributed by the Members and acquire SECOM Shares from the market.
  4. ④ The acquired Shares will be allocated and managed as Members' shares within the Plan through the securities company engaged by the Plan for its administrative tasks.
    (Note) The Members may withdraw SECOM Shares corresponding to their shares to their personal securities accounts.

(2) Eligibility Criteria
The special incentive payments will be provided to the Members who remain members of the Plan as of March 11, 2026 (excluding those on leave and those who resigned from any of the Group Companies by the end of February 2026).

2. Increase in Incentive Grant Rate
Effective as of April 2026, the incentive grant rate for the Plan will be increased from the current 5% to 10%.

3. Miscellaneous
Due to the implementation of the Promotion Measures, there are currently no plans to implement, in this fiscal year and beyond, the employee benefits programs that grant common shares of SECOM as restricted stock to executive officers and employees of SECOM and to directors (excluding outside directors), executive officers and employees of some of SECOM’s subsidiaries.
SECOM anticipates that the impact of the Promotion Measures on its consolidated performance will be minimal.
