Information Regarding Shareholder Benefits
for Shareholders Under the Age of 18

June 27, 2025
SoftBank Corp.

SoftBank Corp. (“SoftBank”) hereby announces a partial revision to the shareholder benefit program for common stock, previously announced on April 25, 2024. The revision enables parents or legal guardians to receive shareholder benefits on behalf of shareholders under the age of 18.
For example, if a shareholder under the age of 18, such as an elementary school student, does not own a smartphone, the benefits can be received through a PayPay account held by the shareholder's parent or guardian.

Please note that there will be no changes to the other conditions for benefit eligibility or the benefit amount (equivalent to ¥1,000 in PayPay Money Lite).
Details regarding the application process and the start of the acceptance period will be announced separately on SoftBank's website.
