External auditor's report

containing reservation

The Company would like to point out that the external auditor have made an observation in their audit report that reads: The Company owns long term equity investments in listed companies, the market values of some of which have declined as disclosed in note 3. The Company is regularly evaluating whether this decline is not temporary. Note 3 clarifies as follows: (These unrealized losses are recorded in the shareholders' equity, and the Company believes that the period of the decline is not long enough to give comfort that the decline is not temporary. Thus, the Company is reguraly evaluating this decline and will make the necessary adjustment if any when there is a clear evidence that the decline is not temporary).
