Explanation of Responses:
( 1)	This filing is being amended to adjust the number of shares beneficially owned as reported in Box 2 of Table I, which were previously reported as 13,748,129. The adjusted amount for Box 2 of Table I is 12,697,279.
( 2)	This adjustment results from the failure of certain shareholders to deliver 1,050,920 shares tendered pursuant to notices of guaranteed delivery delivered to the depositary in connection with the tender offer (the "Offer") by Salmon Acquisition Corporation ("Purchaser"), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of FUJIFILM Holdings Corporation, to purchase all of the outstanding shares, at a price of $54.00 per share in cash, without interest and subject to applicable withholding taxes.

Remarks: Purchaser is the direct owner of the shares purchased in the Offer.
