On July 8, 2011, we received an instruction document, from Nuclear
and Industrial Safety Agency (NISA), entitled "Instruction to submit
reports related to injection of nitrogen to the reactor containment
vessel of Unit 3 at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station". *
Subsequently, regarding the injection of nitrogen to the reactor
containment vessel of Unit 3 at Fukushima Daiichi Power Station,
we have compiled a report that we will start the injection as early
as possible after the preparation of necessary work environment and
the environment impact due to the injection is below the exposure
dose limit (1mSv per annum) to the general public, and have reported
to NISA on July 11, 2011.

We have provided a Japanese press release version of the instruction
document received from NISA. However, at this time we have reserved
the right not to provide an English version due to potential
misunderstandings that may arise from an inaccurate rendering of the
original Japanese text.
We may provide the English translation that NISA releases in our press
releases. However, in principle we would advise you to visit the NISA
website for timely and accurate information.
