I.Strengthening of Business Alliance 1. Purpose and Reason of Strengthening the Business Alliance Pioneer designates its car electronics business, with its outstanding technological expertise, product lineup and brand power, as a core business. Pioneer is actively proceeding with business alliances to enhance the competitiveness of its car electronics business, including in terms of reducing costs. With respect to car navigation systems, strengthening the capability and improving efficiency of development is essential as development costs increase with the advancement of performance, and the intensification of market competition. For this reason, Pioneer and Mitsubishi Electric are jointly developing platforms for car navigation systems and automobile AV products. With this enhancement of the business alliance, Pioneer will further strengthen the relationship between the two companies. Both companies will deal with future technological innovations to develop car navigation systems as the center of information in the vehicles, by integrating Pioneer's technologies related to servers and maps and Mitsubishi Electric's ability to develop platforms and technologies to interact with vehicle data. 3.Outline of Mitsubishi Electric Please see "II.

II.Issuance of New Shares Through Third-Party Allotment 1.Outline of Offering +-------------------------+---------------+------------------------------------------+ | (1) | | The issue date will be a | | Issue | | date within the period from | | Date | | Tuesday, March 2, 2010 to | | | | Thursday, March 4, 2010, | | | | whichever of such date is | | | | the fifth business day | | | | immediately following the | | | | Determination Date defined | | | | in (3) below. | +-------------------------+---------------+------------------------------------------+ | (2) | | 10,000,000 shares of common | | Number | | stock (Note 1) | | of | | | | Shares | | | | to Be | | | | Newly | | | | Issued | | | +-------------------------+---------------+------------------------------------------+ | (3) | | The amount to be paid shall | | Method | | be the same price as the | | of | | issue price (offer price) of | | Determining | | new shares to be offered in | | the Amount | | the International Offering, | | to Be Paid | | which will be determined on | | | | a date within the period | | | | from Tuesday, February 23, | | | | 2010 to Thursday, February | | | | 25, 2010 (the "Determination | | | | Date"). | | | | The offer price for the | | | | International Offering will | | | | be determined on the | | | | Determination Date based on | | | | the preliminary pricing | | | | terms calculated by | | | | multiplying the closing | | | | price of the shares of | | | | common stock of Pioneer on | | | | the First Section of the | | | | Tokyo Stock Exchange, Inc. | | | | on the Determination Date | | | | (or, if no closing price is | | | | quoted on the Determination | | | | Date, the closing price of | | | | the immediately preceding | | | | date) by 0.90-1.00 (any | | | | fraction less than one (1) | | | | yen that results from such | | | | calculation will be rounded | | | | down) in accordance with the | | | | book-building method similar | | | | to the method stated in | | | | Article 25 of the | | | | Regulations concerning | | | | Underwriting of Securities, | | | | etc. established by the | | | | Japan Securities Dealers | | | | Association, taking into | | | | account market demand and | | | | other conditions. | +-------------------------+---------------+------------------------------------------+ | (4) | | 3,803,500,000 yen (estimated | | Amount | | net proceeds calculated | | of Funds | | based on the closing price | | to Be | | of the shares of common | | Raised | | stock of Pioneer on the | | | | First Section of the Tokyo | | | | Stock Exchange, Inc. as of | | | | February 8, 2010) (Note 2) | +-------------------------+---------------+------------------------------------------+ | (5) | | Third-party allotment | | Method | | | | of | | (Mitsubishi Electric | | Offering | | Corporation) | | or | | | | Allotment | | | | (Party to | | | | Which | | | | Shares | | | | Will Be | | | | Allotted) | | | +-------------------------+---------------+------------------------------------------+ | (6) Each of the items above will be subject to the | | effectiveness of the securities registration statement to be | | filed under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act of | | Japan. | +-------------------------+---------------+------------------------------------------+ Notes:1.Mitsubishi Electric will underwrite the shares to be offered in the amount obtained by dividing 2,500,000,000 yen by the amount to be paid determined as described in (3) above (any fraction less than 10,000 shares shall be rounded down). Shares that Mitsubishi Electric will not underwrite will not be issued. 2.This is the estimated net proceeds calculated based on the aggregate amount to be paid in the case that Mitsubishi Electric underwrites all the shares to be offered. In fact, as Mitsubishi Electric will underwrite the shares as described in Note 1, the maximum aggregate amount to be paid will be 2,500,000,000 yen. In such case, the estimated net proceeds will be 2,489,250,000 yen. 2.Purpose of and Reason for the Issuance of New Shares Through Third-Party Allotment As described in I. 1. above, Pioneer designates its car electronics business, with its outstanding technological expertise, product lineup and brand power, as a core business. Pioneer is actively proceeding with business alliances to enhance the competitiveness of its car electronics business, including in terms of reducing costs. With respect to car navigation systems, strengthening the capability and improving efficiency of development is essential as development costs increase with the advancement of performance, and the intensification of market competition. For this reason, Pioneer and Mitsubishi Electric are jointly developing platforms for car navigation systems and automobile AV products. In order to further strengthen the business alliance relationship with Mitsubishi Electric, Pioneer has determined to issue new shares through a third-party allotment to Mitsubishi Electric. 3.Amount, Use and Scheduled Timing of Expenditure of Funds to Be Raised (1)Amount of Funds to Be Raised +--------------------------------+---------------------------+ | Aggregate amount | 3,820,000,000 | | to be paid: | yen | +--------------------------------+---------------------------+ | Estimated costs of | 16,500,000 | | issuance (Note 1): | yen | +--------------------------------+---------------------------+ | Estimated net | 3,803,500,000 | | proceeds: | yen | +--------------------------------+---------------------------+ Notes: 1.Costs of issuance include costs related to commercial registration and listing fees. 2.The above is the estimated amount calculated based on the closing price of the shares of common stock of Pioneer on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Inc. on February 8, 2010 and is the maximum amount in the case that Mitsubishi Electric underwrites all the shares to be offered described in 1. (2) above. In fact, Mitsubishi Electric will underwrite the shares to be offered in the Third-Party Allotment in the amount obtained by dividing 2,500,000,000 yen by the amount to be paid determined as described in 1. (3) above (any fraction less than 10,000 shares shall be rounded down). Therefore, the actual maximum aggregate amount to be paid will be 2,500,000,000 yen. Accordingly, the actual maximum estimated costs of issuance and the maximum estimated net proceeds will be 10,750,000 yen and 2,489,250,000 yen, respectively. (2)Use and Scheduled Timing of Expenditure of Funds to Be Raised The funds to be raised through the Third-Party Allotment will be used as working capital, among other purposes. In particular, the funds will be used for the joint development with Mitsubishi Electric of the hardware and software platforms for car navigation systems. The funds to be raised will be used during the year ending March 31, 2011, and until then, such funds will be kept in Pioneer's current deposit account. 4.Rationale for the Use of Funds to Be Raised Pioneer believes that the use of the funds to be raised as working capital, necessary for ensuring the progress on strengthening of the business alliance with Mitsubishi Electric, will contribute to enhance the corporate value of Pioneer, and is therefore a reasonable application. 5. The amount to be paid with respect to the Third-Party Allotment shall be the same price as the offer price for the International Offering. Such offer price for the International Offering will be determined in accordance with the book-building method similar to the method stated in Article 25 of the Regulations concerning Underwriting of Securities, etc. established by the Japan Securities Dealers Association. Pioneer has determined that the aforementioned method of determining the amount to be paid with respect to the Third-Party Allotment is appropriate, as such method is in accordance with "the method for determining the amount to be paid in that is appropriate to realize payment at a fair value" provided for in Article 201, Paragraph 2 of the Company Law. Furthermore, regarding the legality of the method of determining the amount to be paid, all three (3) auditors (of which two (2) auditors are outside company auditors) represented their opinion that the method of determining the amount to be paid is legitimate at the meeting of Pioneer's board of directors held today. The number of shares to be newly issued through the Third-Party Allotment and the Third-Party Allotment to Mitsubishi Chemical is 12,400,000 shares (number of voting rights: 124,000) at a maximum, and the ratio to the current total number of issued shares of Pioneer (210,063,836 shares (total number of voting rights as of September 30, 2009: 2,048,293)) is 5.9% (ratio in voting rights: 6.0%) at a maximum. Therefore, Pioneer believes that the level of dilution of shares is limited. +--------+----------------+----+------------------+-+--+-+--------------+------+--------+-------+ | | | | | +--------+----------------+----+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (i) | Trade name | | Mitsubishi Electric Corporation | +--------+----------------+----+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (ii) | Location | | 7-3, Marunouchi 2-chome, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Japan | +--------+----------------+----+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (iii) | Representative | | Setsuhiro Shimomura | | | | | President & CEO | +--------+----------------+----+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (iv) | Principal | | Develop, production, sales and provision of service | | | businesses | | energy and electric systems, industrial automation | | | | | systems, information and communication systems, | | | | | electronic devices, home appliances, etc. | +--------+----------------+----+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (v) | Stated | | 175,820 million yen | | | capital | | | +--------+----------------+----+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (vi) | Date of | | January 15, 1921 | | | incorporation | | | +--------+----------------+----+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (vii) | Total number | | 2,147,201,551 shares | | | of issued | | | | | shares | | | +--------+----------------+----+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (viii) | Fiscal year | | March 31 | | | end | | | +--------+----------------+----+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (ix) | Number of | | 110,082 (consolidated) | | | employees | | | +--------+----------------+----+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (x) | Major | | Private companies such as manufacturers and | | | business | | non-manufacturers and public agencies worldwide. | | | partners | | | +--------+----------------+----+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (xi) | Major | | The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., Mitsubishi UFJ | | | transaction | | Trust and Banking Corporation, Mizuho Corporate Bank, | | | banks | | Ltd., The Norinchukin Bank, The Chuo Mitsui Trust and | | | | | Banking Company, Limited | +--------+----------------+----+----------------------------------------------------------------+ | (xii) | Major | | The Master Trust Bank of Japan, Ltd.
