3 > 1. Top-level Commitment Mr. Kazuhiro Yoshizawa President and Chief Executive Officer, NTT DOCOMO, INC. September 25, 2018 GRI Index 1. Purpose We, Sustainability Accounting Co., Ltd., have been engaged by NTT DOCOMO, INC., ( the Company") to provide limited assurance on the Company's performance indicators during the fiscal year 2017 reported in NTT DOCOMO Group Sustainability Report 2018, which indicate 103 thousand yen and 37 hours for the cost and hours of training per person, 5.3% for the ratio of female employees in managerial positions, 2.32% for the employment ratio of people with disabilities (as of June 1, 2018), 3,748 thousand tons for the amount of CO2 emissions (scope 1, 2 and 3), thousand kwh for the solar and wind power generated by the Company, 39 thousand tons for the amount of waste and 1,508 thousand m for the water consumption (collectively, the Performance Indicators ). The purpose of this process is to express our conclusion on whether the Performance Indicators were calculated in accordance with the Company s standards. The Company's management is responsible for calculating the Performance Indicators. Our responsibility is to independently carry out a limited assurance engagement and to express our assurance conclusion. 2. Procedures Performed We conducted our assurance engagement in accordance with International Standard on Assurance Engagement 3000 (ISAE 3000) and International Standard on Assurance Engagement 3410 (ISAE 3410). The key procedures we carried out included: Interviewing the Company s responsible personnel to understand the Company s standards and reviewing the Company s standards Visiting to one of the Company s sites Performing cross-checks on a sample basis and performing a recalculation to determine whether the Indicators were calculated in accordance with the Company s standards. 3. Conclusion Based on the procedures performed, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Indicators have not been calculated in all material respects in accordance with the Company s standards. We have no conflict of interest relationships with the Company. Takashi Fukushima Representative Director, Sustainability Accounting Co., Ltd. 175
