On January 22, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Company announced that it increased the number of directors on the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") from 10 to 11 and elected Mr. Seiji Inagaki to the Board. Mr. Inagaki was designated for nomination by The Dai-ichi Life Insurance Company, Limited ("Dai-ichi Life") pursuant to the Investment and Strategic Cooperation Agreement between the Company and Dai-ichi Life dated as of August 10, 2012 (the "Agreement"). The Company's related press release is filed as Exhibit 99.3 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
Mr. Inagaki is currently an executive officer and general manager of the Investment Planning Department of Dai-ichi Life.
As previously disclosed, under the Agreement, Dai-ichi Life agreed to acquire at least 15%, and no more than 20%, of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company. In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, Dai-ichi Life was granted the right to designate a representative for appointment to the Board after it acquired at least 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock, such right continuing as long as Dai-ichi Life maintains ownership of at least 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock or until the right is otherwise terminated in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. On December 4, 2012, Dai-ichi Life reported that it had acquired 37,254,654 shares of common stock of the Company, or 19.9% of the Company's then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Mr. Inagaki's election to the Board is consistent with the terms of the Agreement.
At the present time, Mr. Inagaki will not receive any compensation for serving as a director and is not currently expected to serve on any committees of the Board.
In furtherance of the strategic alliance contemplated by the Agreement, subject to certain conditions, Dai-ichi Life is committed to invest at least $2,000,000,000 of its general account assets in investment products managed by one or more of the Company's affiliates in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. In addition, Dai-ichi Life will promote the Company's distribution initiatives in Japan.
