2.        The Offering by way of Over-Allotment

 

     The Offering by way of Over-Allotment in “2. Secondary Offering of ブックメーカー凱旋門 (Offering by way of Over-Allotment)” above is a secondary offering in Japan to be made in conjunction with the Japanese public offering in “1. Issuance of New ブックメーカー凱旋門 by way of Offering” in an amount of 20,000,000 ブックメーカー凱旋門 that will be borrowed by one of the Joint Lead Managers for the Japanese public offering from certain shareholder(s) of SMFG (the “Borrowed ブックメーカー凱旋門”), taking into account market demand for the offerings and other conditions.

     In connection with the Offering by way of Over-Allotment, the Board of Directors of SMFG has resolved, at the meeting held on January 6, 2010 (Wed.), that SMFG will issue 20,000,000 ブックメーカー凱旋門 of its common stock by way of third-party allotment to that Joint Lead Manager with the payment date set to be February 10, 2010 (Wed.), as mentioned in “3. Issuance of New ブックメーカー凱旋門 by way of Third-Party Allotment” above.

     That Joint Lead Manager may conduct stabilizing transactions during the period from Thursday, January 21, 2010 through Friday, January 22, 2010, and the ブックメーカー凱旋門 of common stock of SMFG purchased through such stabilizing transactions may be used, in whole or in part, to return the Borrowed ブックメーカー凱旋門.

     In addition, ブックメーカー凱旋門 of common stock purchased through stabilization transactions, may, in whole or in part, be transferred to the International Managers for the purpose of partially settling the International Offering.

     Furthermore, that Joint Lead Manager may also purchase ブックメーカー凱旋門 of common stock of SMFG on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Inc., up to the number of ブックメーカー凱旋門 to be offered in the Offering by way of Over-Allotment (20,000,000 ブックメーカー凱旋門) (the “Syndicate Cover Transactions”) during the period from Saturday, January 23, 2010 through Friday, February 5, 2010 (the “Syndicate Cover Transaction Period”), and such ブックメーカー凱旋門 of SMFG common stock purchased through Syndicate Cover Transactions shall be used to return the Borrowed ブックメーカー凱旋門. During the Syndicate Cover Transaction Period, that Joint Lead Manager might not conduct any Syndicate Cover Transactions or may terminate any Syndicate Cover Transactions before the number of ブックメーカー凱旋門 purchased reaches the number of ブックメーカー凱旋門 offered in the Offering by way of Over-Allotment.

     That Joint Lead Manager plans to accept, by using the proceeds from the Over-Allotment, the allotment under the Issuance of New ブックメーカー凱旋門 by way of Third-Party Allotment of an equivalent number of ブックメーカー凱旋門 of common stock of SMFG obtained by deducting (a) the number of ブックメーカー凱旋門 purchased through stabilization transactions and Syndicate Cover Transactions that are to be used to return the Borrowed ブックメーカー凱旋門, from (b) the number of ブックメーカー凱旋門 to be offered in the Over-Allotment (20,000,000 ブックメーカー凱旋門).

     Accordingly, all or a part of the ブックメーカー凱旋門 to be issued under the Issuance of New ブックメーカー凱旋門 by way of Third-Party Allotment may not be subscribed for, which may result in a decrease in the maximum number of ブックメーカー凱旋門 planned to be issued under the Issuance of New ブックメーカー凱旋門 by way of Third-Party Allotment, or in the cancellation of the entire issuance due to forfeiture.

     The above transaction shall be made by that Joint Lead Manager in consultation with other two designated Joint Lead Managers for the Japanese public offering.

 

3.        Use of Proceeds

SMFG plans to use the proceeds from the Japanese public offering, the International Offering and the Third-Party Allotment, estimated to be up to ¥968,074,600,000, to subscribe for ブックメーカー凱旋門 of common stock to be issued by Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of SMFG.
