Sony Group Corporation
Withdrawal of Shelf Registration Statement regarding
Issuance of New Shares or Disposal of Treasury Shares
Sony Group Corporation (the “Corporation”) announced that it has, as of today, withdrawn the shelf registration statement (the “Shelf Registration Statement”) dated November 8, 2024, as announced in the Corporation’s press release titled “Granting of Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) and Filing of Shelf Registration Statement regarding Issuance of New Shares or Disposal of Treasury Shares” dated November 8, 2024.
Furthermore, the Corporation has, as of today, filed an extraordinary report (the “Extraordinary Report”) with the Director-General of the Kanto Local Finance Bureau regarding the disposition of treasury shares upon the vesting of previously granted Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) (excluding the Corporation’s shares of common stock vested and delivered on or before September 29, 2025), which were the subject of the Shelf Registration Statement based on the amendments to the Cabinet Order for Enforcement of the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act of Japan and its related regulations, effective from February 2025. The withdrawal of the Shelf Registration Statement will not affect matters related to said granted Restricted Stock Units (RSUs).

| 5. Use of proceeds | In principle, there will be no proceeds, as the shares of common stock of the Corporation will be allocated to the recipients through contribution in kind of monetary compensation receivables that will be provided to the recipients. However, if the Corporation takes measures it deems appropriate, such as having the Related Company (a “Related Company” means a “subsidiary (kogaisha)” as defined in Article 8, Paragraph 3 of the Ordinance on the Terminology, Forms and Preparation Methods of Financial Statements, etc. or an “affiliated company (kanren kaisha)” as defined in Paragraph 5 of such Article (hereinafter the same shall apply).) pay money to such recipient, instead of such Related Company granting a monetary compensation receivable to the recipient, some proceeds are charged. The proceeds will be allocated to the payment of various expenses related to the program and other operating funds. |

| Total Issuance Price: 9,238,798,560 yen |
| 3. | Reason for Withdrawal of the Shelf Registration Statement |
