Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.
Honda Motor Co., Ltd.
Mitsubishi Motors Corporation

 

Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. ("Nissan"), Honda Motor Co., Ltd. ("Honda"), and
Mitsubishi Motors Corporation ("Mitsubishi Motors") have signed a memorandum of
understanding (MOU) to explore the possibility of Mitsubishi Motors’
participation, involvement, and synergy sharing in relation to the business
integration through the establishment of a joint holding company outlined in an
MOU signed between Nissan and Honda.

Nissan, Honda, and Mitsubishi Motors have reached a basic agreement to proceed
with discussions based on the framework established in the MOU signed by Nissan
and Honda on August 1 regarding the commencement of a strategic partnership
focused on intelligence and electrification. Mitsubishi Motors has been
participating in this framework, and the three companies have been proceeding
with discussions.

Following the agreement between Nissan and Honda to start consideration toward a
business integration through the establishment of a joint holding company amid
the dramatic changes in the environment surrounding both companies and the
automotive industry, the three companies have agreed to explore the possibility
of achieving synergies at an increased level through Mitsubishi Motors’
participation or involvement in the business integration. Mitsubishi Motors aims
to reach its conclusion by the end of January 2025 on the participation or
involvement in the business integration between Nissan and Honda.

Marking the announcement, Nissan Director, President, CEO and Representative
Executive Officer Makoto Uchida said: “Honda and Nissan have begun considering a
business integration, and will study the creation of significant synergies
between the two companies in a wide range of fields. It is significant that
Nissan's partner, Mitsubishi Motors, is also involved in these discussions. We
anticipate that if this integration comes to fruition, we will be able to
deliver even greater value to a wider customer base.“

Honda Director and Representative Executive Officer Toshihiro Mibe said: "At
this time of change in the automobile industry, which is said to occur once
every 100 years, we hope that Mitsubishi Motors' participation in the business
integration discussions of Nissan and Honda will lead to further social change,
and that we will be able to become a leading company in creating new value in
mobility through business integration. Nissan and Honda will start the
discussion from today onwards with an aim to clarify the possibility of business
integration by around the end of January in line with the consideration of
Mitsubishi Motors."

Comment from Mitsubishi Motors Director, Representative Executive Officer, and
President and CEO Takao Kato said: “In an era of change in the automotive
industry, the study between Nissan and Honda about a business integration will
accelerate synergy maximization effects, bringing high value also to the
collaborative businesses with Mitsubishi Motors. In order to realize synergies
and to make the best use of each company's strengths, we will also study the
best form of cooperation.”

 

Honda and Nissan may file a registration statement on Form F-4 (“Form F-4”) with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in connection with the
possible share transfer pertaining to the business integration between them (the
“Share Transfer”), if it is conducted. The Form F-4 (if filed in connection with
the Share Transfer) will contain a prospectus and other documents. If a Form F-4
is filed and declared effective, the prospectus contained in the Form F-4 will
be mailed to U.S. shareholders of Honda and Nissan prior to the shareholders’
meetings at which the Share Transfer will be voted upon. The Form F-4 and
prospectus (if the Form F-4 is filed) will contain important information about
Honda and Nissan, the Share Transfer and related matters. U.S. shareholders of
Honda and Nissan to whom the prospectus is distributed are urged to read the
Form F-4, the prospectus and other documents that may be filed with the SEC in
connection with the Share Transfer carefully before they make any decision at
the respective shareholders’ meeting with respect to the Share Transfer. Any
documents filed or furnished with the SEC in connection with the Share Transfer
will be made available when filed, free of charge, on the SEC’s web site at
www.sec.gov. In addition, the documents will be mailed to any shareholder of
Honda or Nissan upon request for free of charge. To make a request, please refer
to the following contact information.
