* Following the dematerialization of share certificates (implemented on January 5, 2009), a special account is an account opened at a financial institution such as a trust bank (usually the shareholder registry administrator) at the request of the issuing company in order to protect the rights of shareholders, for share certificates of listed companies that were not deposited with the Japan Securities Depository Center (JASDEC). A special account is not a trading account for shares. Therefore, to sell, transfer or gift shares recorded in a special account, you must first open your own trading account at a securities company or the like and transfer the shares.
