TOKYO, Jun 23 (Pulse News Wire) – SoftBank Corp. (9434.T) resolved today to issue new share subscription rights (stock options) to its executives and employees based on Article 236, 238, and 240 of the Companies Act.
The purpose is to align performance incentives with shareholder interests and enhance corporate value. Under the issuance terms, each option entitles the holder to purchase 100 ordinary shares at a price determined on July 17, 2026, using the Black-Scholes model. The total number of options issued is 30,960 units, payable through offset against existing claims owed to the company. Exercise of these options is permitted from August 1, 2028, until July 31, 2033. Any fractional shares resulting from exercise will be rounded down.
Exercise conditions stipulate that holders lose their eligibility if they resign without cause or engage in misconduct. Exceptions apply if the company grants approval in writing. Upon death, the assignee has up to one year to exercise the options, subject to company approval. SoftBank reserves the right to acquire unexercised options in certain circumstances, such as organizational restructuring or changes in employment status. The company also retains discretion to adjust the number of shares per option due to stock splits or consolidations post-issue.
