TOKYO, Feb. 21 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Trend Micro (TSE:4704) ( NASDAQ: TMIC) , a leader in network antivirus and Internet content security software and services, today resolved at a meeting of its Board of Directors to obtain an authorization by shareholder resolution to be adopted at the 18th ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled to be held on March 27, 2007, for the Remuneration, etc. in the form of stock options of directors, as discussed under the agendum below. 1. Reason for Proposal The Company issues Options to directors for the purpose of linking the Company's stock price to the directors' interest and thereby strengthening their motivation and moral to improve performance of the Trend Micro Group which we believe would lead to the development of business focusing on shareholders' interests and the enhancement of shareholder value. We will maintain the number of Options to be issued within appropriate range in consideration of the balance between such number and profitability of the Company as well as payout ratio. It was resolved at the ordinary general meeting of shareholders held on March 11, 1999 that the annual remuneration, etc. of directors would be 1 billion yen or less, and the rules have been applicable up to the present. However, upon recent enforcement of the Company Law, the stock acquisition rights granted to company officers as stock options have been determined to be included in their remuneration, etc., and we would like to revise the annual remuneration, etc. of directors including remuneration, etc. in the form of stock options to 800 million yen or less (of which outside director receives 10 million yen or less per year) . We would also like to ask the shareholders' to approve on the grant of stock acquisition rights to directors (other than outside director) in the following terms and conditions. Please note that the amount of remuneration, etc. of directors (other than outsider director) and the details thereof have been determined taking into consideration the recent payment records, fair appraisal value of the stock acquisition rights granted to directors other than outside director as stock options (as calculated by multiplying the fair unit value of the stock acquisition right per share calculated using Black-Scholes model based on the Company's stock price, by the total number of stock acquisition rights to be allocated) and the effect of such stock options as an incentive to improve performance of Trend Micro Group. Please also note that the remuneration, etc. of directors does not include, as before, employees' salaries payable to directors who also serve as employees. There are currently four directors (including one outside director) and four corporate auditors, which numbers will not change even if Agenda relating to Election of four Directors will be approved and resolved as originally proposed at the 18th ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders scheduled to be held on March 27, 2007. 2. Terms and conditions of the Options (1) Class of shares to be issued upon exercise of the Options: Ordinary shares of the Company (2) Number of shares to be issued upon exercise of the Options: The aggregate number of shares to be issued upon exercise of the Options during the period of one year from the date of the ordinary general meeting of shareholders of each fiscal year shall be up to 255,000 ordinary shares of the Company In the event of stock split or consolidation, the number of shares to be issued upon exercise of the Options (the "Option Shares") shall be adjusted using the following formula; provided, however, that such adjustment shall be made only in respect of the number of the Option Shares which are not exercised at that time and any fractions less than one (1) share resulting from such adjustment shall be disregarded. Number of Shares = Number of Shares x Split/Consolidation after Adjustment before Adjustment Ratio In addition to the above, if it becomes necessary to adjust the number of Option Shares after the date of allotment of the Options then the Company may also make necessary adjustment of the number of the Option Shares to the reasonable extent. (3) Aggregate number of the Options to be issued: Up to 510 in aggregate (The number of the Option Shares shall be 500 shares per one (1) Option; provided, however, that if the adjustment in clause (2) above has been made, it shall also be adjusted accordingly.)

In the event of stock split or consolidation occurring after the date of allotment of the Options, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted using the following formula and any fractions less than one (1) yen resulting from such adjustment shall be rounded up. Exercise Price Exercise Price 1 = X ------------------------ after Adjustment before Adjustment Split/Consolidation Ratio In the event of issuance of new shares or disposition of treasury stock at a price less than the market price (excluding the exercise of the Options (including those attached to the bonds with stock acquisition rights), exercise of the subscription rights pursuant to the provision of Article 280-19 of the Commercial Code prior to the amendment on April 1, 2002 (including the subscription rights in connection with the bonds with subscription rights pursuant to the provision of Article 341-8 thereof) and conversion of securities to be converted or convertible into ordinary shares of the Company), then the Exercise Price shall be adjusted using the following formula and any fractions less than one (1) yen resulting from such adjustment shall be rounded up.
