After reorganizing the former Shanghai branch (the first business organization established by a Japanese insurance company in September, 1994) into a wholly-owned subsidiary in November, 2008, the company subsequently established its Shanghai, Guangdong and Jiangsu branches under the management of the Chinese subsidiary in January 2009, July 2010 and August 2011 respectively.

With the opening of our fourth branch in China, we will be able to provide faster and higher quality services from a local-based office, as well as direct acceptance of insurance from our customers in Beijing. Preparations for the opening of the Beijing branch are under way, and the branch is scheduled to commence operations in May, 2012 after final approval is obtained from the relevant authorities.

Along with underwriting various kinds of insurance that meet our customers' needs, the Chinese subsidiary is prepared to offer diverse risk management services in accordance with various risks and regulations specific to China. The Chinese subsidiary has steadily expanded operations, and at present is the largest Japanese affiliated P&C insurance company and stands among the top foreign P&C insurance companies operating in China. At the Beijing branch to be newly opened, we will continue to provide high quality products and services and endeavor to further reinforce our company's foundation in the Chinese market.

Looking ahead, the company aims to gradually expand its network of branches in other areas of China.
