Please select the option that best describes your risk procedures with regard to climate change risks and opportunities Integrated into multi-disciplinary company wide risk processes CC2.1a Please provide further details on your risk procedures with regard to climate change risks and opportunities Frequency of monitoring To whom are results reported? Geographical areas considered How far into the future are risks considered? Comment Annually Board or individual/sub-set of the Board or committee appointed by the Board Sony Group's geographical area of consideration is "worldwide " since we sell products globally and our plants and offices are located worldwide. > 6 years CC2.1b Please describe how your risk and opportunity identification processes are applied at both company and asset level i) Company level Each Sony Group business unit, subsidiary or affiliated company, and corporate division reviews and assesses business risks on a regular basis. (1)With regard to environmental risks, Quality and Environmental Department (QED), who governs the environmental activities in the entire Sony Group, assesses overall risks and opportunities for the entire Sony Group during its annual assessment of environmental aspects. Our evaluations are including climate change, and across all product lifecycle stages and business activities. (2) Regulatory risks/opportunities are assessed by QED. Through Regional Environmental Offices (REO) that are located in six regions (North America, Central and South America, Europe, Japan/East Asia, Pan Asia, China), QED collects information on regulatory movements and trends on a continual basis to identify and assess risks/opportunities worldwide. QED also conducts audits on all sites and business units in conjunction with the REOs. Audits are conducted mostly to identify and assess operational and legal compliance risks. (3) Reputational risks/opportunities are assessed by the CSR Group. It communicates with NGOs and Socially Responsible Investors on a regular basis to identify and assess risks/opportunities. (4) Market risks/opportunities are assessed by Product Groups and Sales Companies on a continual basis worldwide. (5) General Risk Office whose executive in charge is the General Council, takes a different, comprehensive approach in assessing risks. It conducts internal audits from a company-wide point-of-view which includes the environment. Results are reported to the executive board. Risks are disclosed qualitatively on filings such as Form 20-F for the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

ii) Asset level (1) Physical risks are assessed by the Corporate Workplace Solutions Department. It continuously evaluates Sony factory and office facilities globally. CC2.1c How do you prioritize the risks and opportunities identified? Materiality for defining contents has been identified by two axes (materiality matrix): 1. impact to company's business performance, and 2. Interest of stakeholder assessments. Each risk/opportunity is plotted against the two axes and the righter and higher the axes, the higher on the priority list. Each Sony Group business unit, affiliated company and corporate division is expected to review and assess business risks on a regular basis and to detect, communicate, evaluate and respond to risks in its particular business area.risk to be addressed is prioritized by the impact to our business. Depending on the degree of impact on Sony by the confirmed risks and opportunities, the Board of Directors, which consists of the directors appointed at the shareholders' meeting, will determine the response and other matter.in line with its corporate strategy and in response to a changing environment, with an aim to maintain the most appropriate way to manage the Sony Group's business operation, Sony continually works to enhance its governance functions. CC2.1d Please explain why you do not have a process in place for assessing and managing risks and opportunities from climate change, and whether you plan to introduce such a process in future Main reason for not having a process Do you plan to introduce a process? Comment CC2.2 Is climate change integrated into your business strategy? Yes

CC2.2a Please describe the process of how climate change is integrated into your business strategy and any outcomes of this process i. Influence on business strategy: Each Business Unit conducts a Business Plan Deliberation Meeting annually, and risks/opportunities related to climate change are deliberated on this occasion. ii Example of how the business strategy has been influenced: In Sony mid-term corporate business strategy, Sony aims to achieve the following goals: ROE of more than 10% and consolidated operating profit of more than 500 billion yen for the Sony Group in FY2017. In order to achieve these goals, Sony is proactively investing in R&D of car-use image sensors. Sony regards device business including image sensors as one of its growth drivers. In the image sensor market which is expected to grow up to $2000 million by 2020, sensors for car-, monitor- and IoT-uses are especially expected to grow. Automobile makers are requesting devices that are more energy efficient for their products as next-generation cars are put on market. Sony s image sensors consume less power while having imageprocessing LSIs and memories that realize making compact products, so by expanding business on energy-efficient image sensors, Sony will not only contribute to prevention of climate change but also is able to help grow its business. By utilizing technical superiority of our image sensors, together with Sony s acclaimed camera technology such as power, Sony is differentiating itself from competitors by its superior technology. Challenging into the new market of image sensor business is one of the key strategies for Sony to become a highly profitable company in a sustainable way. iii. Climate change aspects that influenced the strategy: Sony is implementing its environmental actions based on our environmental plan "Road to Zero" announced in April 2010. The plan, which includes a long-term goal of achieving a zero environmental footprint by 2050, uses back casting methods to set specific mid-term environmental targets for the next five years in line with that goal. Targets are based on four environmental perspectives that includes climate change across all product lifecycle stages. We eliminate or minimize risks and seize or maximize opportunities by taking actions according to this plan. Regulatory risks/opportunities and customer behaviour-related risks/opportunities are the climate change aspects that have are most influential on our business strategy. Our current business strategy is to increase the number of industry-leading energy efficient products and to contribute to realization of a more sustainable infrastructure. We are putting utmost efforts on seizing market opportunities by developing and marketing various energy efficient products, especially televisions, audio products, PlayStation, and B2B products such as projectors. iv. Influence on short term strategy: Sony introduced Green Management 2020, which sets new environmental mid-team targets for FY2016-FY2020.When formulating the targets, Sony examined its past environmental activities and conducted a materiality analysis in order to incorporate the viewpoints of its stakeholders outside the Sony Group. Based on these results, Sony specified, among other things, energy and atmospheric emissions as priority areas to tackle by 2020. The new target for climate change in Product Planning and Design is to reduce energy consumption by 30% from the fiscal 2015 level. For Operations, the new target aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by an absolute value of 5% from FY2015 level. For the supply chain, reduction targets were set for the first time in our history of environmental activities. The target is to request main manufacturing contractors to monitor GHG emissions and reduce GHG intensity by 1% per year. The climate change targets have been approved by the Science Based Targets Initiative. v. Influence on long term strategy: Beyond our mid-term environmental targets towards 2020, Sony s Road to Zero environmental plan has a long-term goal of achieving a zero environmental footprint throughout the life cycle of our products and business activities by 2050. This includes the goal of zero emissions of greenhouse gases by 2050 at our factories, offices throughout product life cycles. Our long-term and mid-term strategies are linked since we have used back casting methods to set 2020 mid-term targets in line with our 2050 long term goal. vi. Influence from the Paris Agreement on the business strategy: Our environmental mid-term targets Green Management 2020 were established before the adaptation of the Paris Agreement, so there was no direct influence. However, when we set the targets, we not only reviewed and reflected our previous environmental activities but also referred to the IPCC 5th Report and the opinions of stakeholders. One of our key stakeholders is WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature), who is a strong proponent of the Paris Agreement. Our climate change related targets have been verified and approved by WWF s Climate Savers Programme. As a result of these activities, we believe that the concept of Sony's environmental plan "Road to Zero" and our environmental mid-term targets Green Management 2020 are aligned with the Paris Agreement. In addition, Sony's climate change related targets in Green Management 2020 have been approved by the

Science-based Targets Initiative. Sony was the first Japanese company to get approved. vii. Strategic advantage over your competitors: The actions mentioned above enable Sony to be at the forefront of environmental R&D and the development of ecoconscious products. There are numerous examples of Sony electronic products that lead the industry in energy efficiency. The internal architecture of the new PS4 system has been revamped, reducing its volume by more than 30% compared to the previous models and reducing its weight by 25% and 16% compared to the first (CUH-1000 series) and current (CUH-1200 series) models respectively. Also, the new PS4 system is more energy efficient, as the power consumption has been cut by more than 34% and 28% compared to the very first and current models. Of all the components that go into a game console, the main users of energy are the CPU and GPU. PS4 offers improved graphics with HDR support while greatly reducing power consumption. viii. Use of forward-looking scenario analyses, including a 2-degree scenario, to inform our organization s businesses, strategy, and/or financial planning:climate change related targets of our Green Management 2020 environmental mid-term targets are approved in 2015 as science-based targets, which means that they are in line with the 2-degree scenario. We will study using it in forward-looking scenario analyses to inform our organization s strategy after we receive the content of TCFD s final recommendation and report to Financial Stability Board and the trends in G20 finance ministers meeting and Central Bank Governors' Meeting.

Particularly in recent years, Sony has implemented the Eco Challenge Project on an ongoing basis as a bottom-up initiative to promote improvements in energy saving. In addition to upgrading buildings and equipment, the project seeks to improve efficiency throughout Sony's business activities, including facility operations and in the manufacturing process. The success of the Eco Challenge Project depends heavily on the active participation of Sony employees, who are encouraged to provide solutions on how to save energy at Sony's production facilities-which consume more electricity than any of Sony's other operations. To assist with identifying energy saving opportunities, participating employees attend an energy awareness and efficiency training session as part of the Eco Challenge project launch at each site. Combining their experience and the knowledge gained from the training, the employees then re-examine their own production workplaces to identify possible energy-saving measures. Sony has been a global frontrunner in reducing the environmental footprint of its operations by utilizing renewable energy sources in the most suitable ways for each region, such as by installing solar panels and utilizing Renewable Energy Certificates. In Japan, Sony jointly established a Green Energy Certificate System with an electric power company in 2001.

CC3.3c What methods do you use to drive investment in emissions reduction activities? Method Comment Compliance with regulatory requirements/standards Dedicated budget for energy efficiency Dedicated budget for low carbon product R&D Compliance with regulations and standards is the minimum level that needs to be met and therefore necessary investment is made to achieve compliance. Energy efficiency at sites are achieved mainly by introducing cutting-edge facilities and equipment that are the most energy efficient at the time of facility renewal. Necessary investment is made to achieve this goal. "Energy and environment" is one of the focus points of our R&D.

Method Comment Internal incentives/recognition programs Dedicated budget for other emissions reduction activities Quality and Environmental Management Awards are awarded to business units and sites that excel in environmental and climate change prevention activities. GHG abatement equipment is installed as necessary to achieve our GHG reduction target at sites.

This is the successor plan to China's 12th Five-Year Plan, and in order to realize its overall target, the present plan sets sub-targets for each of its headings, including targets addressing low carbon emission and climate change. Main targets addressing low carbon emission and climate change - Reduce CO2 emissions per unit of GDP by 18% from 2015, and reduce the amount of energy consumed per unit of GDP by 15% relative to 2015. - Maintain energy self-sufficiency at a rate of 80% or higher. Every province and city is responding to this plan by setting target values for CO2 emissions to reach by 2020. For example, the target value in Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, and other Increased operational cost >6 years Direct More likely than not Mediumhigh Improvements in plant facilities and operations, as well as measures for energy saving on the production plant floor, have been carried out in China. The saving in FY2016 was 130 million yen. In case of Beijing city, the reduction target for Sony was 2% reduction per year. If we were not able to achieve 2% per year, 1.1 million yen/year would have been necessary to pay taxes or to purchase renewable energy. This would have certain influence on the net income. Abatement equipment and higher energyefficiency manufacturing facilities are introduced as a part of facility renewal to reduce CO2 emissions. Particularly in recent years, Sony has implemented the Eco Challenge Project on an ongoing basis as a bottom-up initiative to promote improvements in energy saving. In addition to upgrading buildings and equipment, the project seeks to improve efficiency throughout Sony's business activities, including facility operations and in the Operation cost: The cost of improvement activities at production plants in China was 125 million yen. The main components of this activity expense were equipment purchase costs.

Sony has electronics manufacturing sites in China. In case of Beijing, for example, the CO2 emissions target for each industry has been set according to the city target of 20.5%. For the Sony smartphone plant in Beijing, this means that a 2% reduction per year is necessary. Details are in process of being confirmed, and we will formulate our response to be taken if target cannot achieve upon confirmation. manufacturing process. The success of the Eco Challenge Project depends heavily on the active participation of Sony employees, who are encouraged to provide solutions on how to save energy at Sony's production facilities-which consume more electricity than any of Sony's other operations. To assist with identifying energy saving opportunities, participating employees attend an energy awareness and efficiency training session as part of the Eco Challenge project launch at each site.
