Notes:   1   Operating Revenues of NTT Communications for the nine months ended Dec. 31, 2005 include revenues from
         telephone subscriber lines (203.6 billion yen) for Voice Transmission Services (excluding IP), revenues from
         OCN (104.1 billion yen), IP-VPN (51.8 billion yen) and e-VLAN (31.7 billion yen) for IP Services, revenues
         from Frame Relay / Cell Relay (16.9 billion yen) for Data Transmission, and revenues from conventional leased
         circuits (8.5 billion yen) and high-speed digital (42.9 billion yen) for Leased Circuit.

         2   For periods beginning after Mar. 31, 2005 of NTT DoCoMo, Quickcast services revenues, which were presented
         separately in the past, are included in "Others," and international services revenues, which
         were previously included in "Others," are included in "Cellular services".
         However, international services revenues related to FOMA are not included in FOMA revenues for the nine months
         ended Dec. 31, 2004 because the necessary information was not previously maintained. (Quickcast services
         revenues are reclassified and included in "Others" for the nine months ended Dec. 31, 2004).

         3   Forecasts for the year ending March 31, 2006 have never been changed from those announced in the interim
         results.

5. Average monthly revenue per unit (ARPU)



Average monthly revenue per unit, or ARPU, is used to measure average monthly
operating revenues attributable to designated services on a per user basis. In
the case of our fixed line business, ARPU is calculated by dividing revenue
items in the operating revenues of our Regional Communications Services, that
is, subscriber lines services and ISDN, by the No. of active subscribers to the
relevant services. In the case of our cellular business, ARPU is calculated by
dividing revenue items included in the operating revenues from our Wireless
Services, such as revenue from Cellular (mova) services and revenues from
Cellular (FOMA) services, which are incurred consistently each month (i.e.,
monthly charges and voice/packet transmission charges), by the No. of active
subscribers to the relevant services (the calculation of these figures excludes
revenues that are not representative of monthly average usage such as equipment
sales and activation fees). We believe that our ARPU figures calculated in this
way provide useful information regarding the monthly average usage of our
subscribers. The revenue items included in the numerators of our ARPU figures
are based on our financial results comprising our U.S. GAAP results of
operations.

Notes    1     We separately compute ARPU for the fixed line business conducted by each of NTT East and NTT West using
 :             two measures.

               -        ARPU from telephone subscriber lines services, which is based on operating revenues from
               monthly charges, call charges and FLET'S ADSL charges attributable to our telephone subscriber lines
               services.

               -        ARPU from ISDN, which is based on operating revenues from monthly charges, transmission/call
               charges and FLET'S ISDN charges attributable to our ISDN.

         2     Interconnection revenues are excluded in ARPU of Telephone Subscriber Lines and ISDN Subscriber Lines.


         3     In terms of No. of channels, transmission rate, and line use rate (base rate), INS-Net 1500 is in all
               cases roughly ten times greater than INS-Net 64. For this reason, one INS-Net 1500 subscription is
               calculated as ten INS-Net 64 subscriptions.

         4     From the three months ended Jun. 30, 2005, calls from fixed telephones of NTT East or West to mobile
               phones with a dialing Carrier Identification Code are billed on end-to-end basis and amounts are
               recorded as call rate revenues of NTT East or West.

         5     We compute ARPU for our cellular business using two aggregate measures.


               -        Cellular Aggregate ARPU (FOMA+mova) = Voice ARPU (FOMA+mova) + Packet ARPU (FOMA+mova).


               -         Our Voice ARPU (FOMA+mova) is based on operating revenues related to voice services, such as
               monthly charges and voice transmission charges, attributable to our third generation FOMA and
               conventional mova services, and our Packet ARPU (FOMA+mova) is based on operating revenues related to
               packet communication services, such as monthly charges and packet transmission charges, attributable to
               our third generation FOMA services and based on operating revenues related to i-mode services, such as
               monthly charges and packet transmission charges, attributable to our conventional mova services. We also
               separately compute i-mode ARPU (FOMA+mova), as a subcomponent of Packet ARPU (FOMA+mova). In particular,
               i-mode ARPU (FOMA+mova) is based on operating revenues from monthly charges and packet transmission
               charges attributable to our i-mode-related FOMA and mova services.

               -        Cellular Aggregate ARPU (FOMA) = Voice ARPU (FOMA) + Packet ARPU (FOMA).


               -         Our Voice ARPU (FOMA) is based on operating revenues related to voice services, such as
               monthly charges and voice transmission charges, and our Packet ARPU (FOMA) is based on operating
               revenues related to packet communication services, such as monthly charges and packet transmission
               charges, in each case attributable to our third generation FOMA services. We also separately compute
               i-mode ARPU (FOMA), as a subcomponent of Packet ARPU (FOMA). In particular, i-mode ARPU (FOMA) is based
               on operating revenues from monthly charges and packet transmission charges attributable to our
               i-mode-related FOMA services.

               -        Cellular Aggregate ARPU (mova) = Cellular Voice ARPU (mova) + i-mode ARPU (mova).


               -         Our Voice ARPU (mova) is based on operating revenues related to voice services, such as
               monthly charges and voice transmission charges, and our i-mode ARPU (mova) is based on operating
               revenues related to i-mode services, such as monthly charges and packet transmission charges, in each
               case attributable to our conventional mova services.

         6     We show ARPU for our i-mode using two aggregate measures.


               -        i-mode ARPU is based on the No. of all subscribers who have active cellular phones, regardless
               of whether the i-mode service is activated.

               -        ARPU generated purely from i-mode is based on the No. of active subscribers to the i-mode
               service only.

         7     International service-related revenues in cellular business, which had not been included in previous
               reports, have been included in the Cellular ARPU data calculation for the fiscal year ending Mar. 31,
               2006, due to its growing contribution to total revenues. International service-related Cellular ARPU
               included in the Cellular ARPU results for the 1st quarter ended Jun. 30, 2005 are 30 yen for Cellular
               Aggregate ARPU (FOMA+mova), 60 yen for Cellular Aggregate ARPU (FOMA), and 20 yen for Cellular Aggregate
               ARPU (mova); those for 2nd quarter ended Sept. 30, 2005 are 40 yen for Cellular Aggregate ARPU
               (FOMA+mova), 70 yen for Cellular Aggregate ARPU (FOMA), and 30 yen for Cellular Aggregate ARPU (mova);
               those for 3rd Quarter ended Dec. 31, 2005 are 40 yen for Cellular Aggregate ARPU (FOMA+mova), 70 yen for
               Cellular Aggregate ARPU (FOMA), and 30 yen for Cellular Aggregate ARPU (mova); those for nine months
               ended Dec. 31, 2005 are 40 yen for Cellular Aggregate ARPU (FOMA+mova), 70 yen for Cellular Aggregate
               ARPU (FOMA), and 30 yen for Cellular Aggregate ARPU (mova); and forecasts for the fiscal year ending
               Mar. 31, 2006 are 40 yen for Cellular Aggregate ARPU (FOMA+mova), 70 yen for Cellular Aggregate ARPU
               (FOMA), and 30 yen for Cellular Aggregate ARPU (mova). Cellular ARPU data in previous reports does not
               include International service-related revenues, but Cellular Aggregate ARPU (FOMA+mova) generated from
               International services for the relevant periods is 20 yen for the fiscal year ended Mar. 31, 2005.

         8     No. of DoPa single service subscribers, which had not been included in previous reports, has been
               included in the No. of mova subscribers from the results for the first six months of the fiscal year
               ending Mar. 31, 2005 in order to standardize the definition of subscribers used by all the mobile
               operators in Japan. DoPa single service subscribers and the revenues thereof are not included in the
               ARPU calculations.
