AIWA Corporation. Sony Corporation repurchased and canceled one hundred million yen of the eighth (2) series of unsecured bonds.

is negative, the interest rate is 0%.)

(Note) All bonds with warrants were issued for distribution to the directors and other executives of Sony Corporation as an equity-based incentive plan. The fourteenth series of unsecured bonds with warrants for
shares of Subsidiary Tracking Stock was issued for distribution to the directors and other executives of Sony Communication Network. Regarding the tenth series of unsecured bonds with warrants and the
thirteenth series of unsecured bonds with warrants, Sony Corporation canceled a portion of the warrants that were not used for the incentive plan. As a result, although the exercise ratio is 0% for both
issues, the value of bonds issued does not match the outstanding balance of warrants.

(Notes) 1. The Stock Acquisition Rights of the bonds with Stock Acquisition Rights (principal amount of ¥250 billion) cannot be detached from the bonds, and the exercise of a Stock Acquisition Right causes the
corresponding Bond to be cancelled in lieu of a cash payment for purchase of shares. Due to this close interrelation between the bonds and Stock Acquisition Rights, and in consideration of the value of
the Stock Acquisition Rights and the economic value obtainable by issuing the bonds with the coupon, issue price and other terms of the issue, the Stock Acquisition Rights are issued at no cost.
2. All U.S. dollar convertible bonds were issued to provide equity-based compensation to certain executives in Sony’s U.S. subsidiary companies. All U.S. dollar convertible bonds were issued for distribution
to certain executives in Sony Corporation’s U.S. subsidiary companies as an equity-based incentive plan. Although the conversion ratio is 0% for all these bonds, the value of bonds issued does not
match the outstanding balance of bonds because Sony Corporation purchased and canceled a portion of these warrants that were not used for the incentive plan.
