1. About 5% of Japan’s approximately 50 million households use EHW systems

(water purifier ownership rate is about 40%)

2. Goal is to increase EHW system use to 20% by raising awareness of its benefits and performing research

to identify new uses for EHW

Benefit: Improve condition of stomach and intestines

50 million households x 20% (a) Improves health (b) Low costnote1 (c) Ecology

= 10 million households

3. Nihon Trim anticipates a market share of 30%

10 million households x 30% = 3 million households

(a) Equipment sales (one-by-one sales):

Total market for purifiers is ¥1 trillion = ¥300 billion (30% share)

(b) Replacement cartridges (consistent sales):

Purification cartridge sales of ¥20 billion/year

(assuming a 70% replacement ratio)

4. Global expansion by using the “functional water business,” a technology that originated in Japan

Note 1: Approx. 7 yen per liter when using TRIM ION HYPER for five years

and replacing the cartridge once each year

Starting large-scale tests in the current fiscal yearStarting large-scale tests in the current fiscal year

Example of completed EHW testExample of completed EHW test

Experiment for benefits of drinking EHW Joint research with Kitano Hospital of the Tazuke Kofukai Medical Research Institute

Individuals used EHW as ordinary drinking water for at least 60 days with the goal of drinking about 2,000ml every day.

(1) Blood triglyceride level (normal range: 45-150mg/dl)

Among the individuals who used EHW, 11 of the 12 people

who had elevated blood triglyceride levels saw these levels

decline and the level decreased to normal for two people.

(2) Blood sugar level (normal range: 70 -109mg/dl)

Among the individuals who used EHW, all of the 11 people

who had elevated blood sugar levels saw these levels

decline and the level decreased to normal for eight people.

This research is currently in the verification phase and the data shown here are

pilot figures showing that the desired effect may be achieved. These figures are

not a guarantee of effectiveness.

“Compact”

“Digital display for dissolved hydrogen density (approximate)”

“Better cartridge performance”

Standard price in Japan (with tax): 177,120 yen

(Medical equipment manufacture

certification number: 226AGBZX00012000)

Benefit:

Improve condition of stomach and intestines

� Removes 13 JIS-designated compounds*1 and three compounds*2 in

JWPA voluntary standards!■ Used cartridges are

collected and

recycled at no charge!

Can be installed almost anywhere thanks to its stylish and compact design.

Compared with NEO, volume is about 18% smaller and the area needed for

installation is about 15% smaller.

When the unit produces EHW, the display shows the approximate level of

dissolved hydrogen in the water in ppb. A patent is pending for this capability

that no other company offers.

In addition to the 13 JIS-designated compounds removed by the previous

cartridge, this new cartridge removes three compounds in the voluntary

standards of the Japan Water Purifier Association (JWPA). Furthermore, each

cartridge can purify 8,000 liters of water compared with 7,000 liters for the NEO

cartridge.

FY3/15

1. Uncertainty about transactions for warfarin sensitivity kits with a clinical study company, which contributed to growth in FY3/14a) Tests are mostly completed with regard to trials with the U.S. FDA concerning the effectiveness of genetic tests prior to administering

warfarin

b) Use in FDA tests demonstrates the advanced technologies and reliability of TrimGen products

c) Tests results showed that requiring genetic tests prior to administering warfarin is possible = Raises expectations for rapid growth of

this market

2. Concentrate on growth in the original core market of genetic testing involving cancera) Applied in Japan for approval of external diagnostic drug = Started clinical trial with Mie University in December 2013

b) Aim to acquire CE mark certification for starting operations in Europe and China

3. Take steps involving capital, internal controls and other items to prepare for the IPO in Japan of TrimGen Holdings.

These actions will raise expenses.

a) Recruit more employees to strengthen R&D, sales and administrative activities

b) Expenses for audits and other activities to prepare for the IPO

4. Foreign exchange gains of ¥204 million was recorded in FY3/14. In FY3/15, we estimate foreign exchange loss of ¥25 million.

�Start activities involving cancer-related genetic operations

�To prepare for the IPO, infrastructure will be strengthened while expenses will increase

• Water samples were obtained in Kita-ku,

Osaka

• pH = Hydrogen ion index

= More alkaline as number increases

• Oxidation-reduction potential

= Reduction power increases as voltage

decreases

• ppb = Parts per billion, a measure of density

All figures may change depending on the

location and season.

Stable production of

*The double auto-change cross-line method

Switching polarity periodically prevents scale from

accumulating on the electrodes, which keeps electrolysis

performance high for a long time.

No need to clean the electrode plates!
