2.  Future Operation Policy and Investment Plan

With respect to our home appliance motor business, in January 2010, we acquired Sole Motors (currently, Nidec Sole Motor Corporation S.R.L.) and have strived to strengthen the home appliance motor business in Europe. In the future, we intend to realize to the fullest the effect of synergy with the Acquired Business (in development, production and sales), which has strengths in North America. We also intend to respond to a wide variety of customer needs in small to large motors by adding to our current product portfolio the Acquired Business's large industrial motors and medium-sized central air conditioning motors. In addition, we intend to apply high level motion control technologies of the Acquired Business to the development of next generation products such as motors for electric vehicles, and seek further growth in our automobile motor business.
