In fiscal 2005, we set forth our fundamental stance about how to contribute to society in The Anritsu Group Charter of Corporate Behavior and worked out annual action plans for the area in which Anritsu headquarters operate. Anritsu Corporation, at its Atsugi site, conducted local community exchanges and cleanup campaigns, supported sports events, education and welfare activities as well as crime prevention. Anritsu Group conducted blood donor drives and in Japan we made Green Fund Donations to counter global warming. The Group Companies abroad are also advancing communication with local communities and participating in various local volunteer activities.

Local Community Contact and Activities

For Local Community Development
  Through participation in activities sponsored by Atsugi City and the Atsugi Chamber of Commerce, Anritsu Group Companies in Atsugi build close relations with local residents, benefiting the city's industries.

  At the Atsugi Commerce and Tourism Festival held each year, Anritsu Group Companies exhibit products, demonstrate the Group's range of operations, explain their roles in the information society, promote food safety and answer community residents' questions. Moreover, the Anritsu Group Companies have helped develop industry in this area as a management committee member of the Atsugi Technical Fair, where Anritsu Engineering Co., Ltd. demonstrated leading-edge technologies.

Contact with Community Residents
  Atsugi City holds the Atsugi Fish Festival (fireworks display and other events) every year, developing contact with residents as well as regional tourism. Anritsu Corporation and its Group Companies participate in the fireworks display and the City's municipal communication initiatives by making donations.

Supporting Children's Growth and Athletics

  Anritsu Corporation backs the Atsugi City Soccer Association and its Boys' Committee. The company has been sponsoring the Atsugi City Boys' Soccer Event held in February each year (awarding the Anritsu Cup prize, among other financial aid) for 12 consecutive years, promoting sound child development and sportsmanship.

  Anritsu Company (U.S.A.) offers financial support to regional partners involved in sports, music, stage plays, welfare and other fields. These partners are mostly non-profit organizations (NPOs) offering programs to promote the mental and physical health of youths in local communities.

Educational Support

  Anritsu has internships offering students from local educational bodies, including commercial high schools (such as Atsugi Shogyo Kotou Gakkou) and universities, a chance to understand the importance of work and gain experience in society through on-the-job training.
  Anritsu Company (U.S.A.) hosts opportunities for university students preparing to graduate to learn about technology and how offices work. Recently, 12 of these students from California Polytechnic State University's Electrical Engineering Department (City of San Luis Obispo), met with our engineers and took the opportunity to experience a professional working environment.

Blood Donation Activities

Green Fund Activities

  The Green Fund Activities label, attached to beverage vending machines installed in Anritsu Corporation headquarters, indicates that a portion of the machine handling charges is donated to a foundation that works toward lessening global warming and improving forest management.

Community Cleanups

  Employees from Anritsu Corporation and its Group Companies volunteered to participate in cleaning riverbanks, parks and roadside areas through activities such as the Sagami River Cleanup Campaign and the Clean Atsugi City Campaign.

Contribution to Social Welfare Business

  Donations in coin boxes placed in shops in Anritsu Corporation headquarters and related offices go to the regional welfare association every year.

Subscriptions

  Anritsu donated money and goods through the Red Cross Relief Fund to victims of natural disasters, such as people affected by the earthquake off the coast of Sumatra and tsunami in the Indian Ocean; and New Orleans residents struck by Hurricane Katrina.

Future Activities

  Although Anritsu makes yearly plans focusing on operations to contribute to society, it limits its activities to what it can reasonably accomplish. The Group Companies, in collaboration with NPOs wherever it is feasible, will continue to work with regional residents toward building better communities.

Employee Volunteerism

  Anritsu regards voluntary contributions to regional societies in which its people work and live as the focal points of its greatest responsibility. It is only after making such contributions as a company that we can consider ourselves to be good corporate citizens.

Charity Projects
  In 2005, Anritsu Limited (U.K.) again supported Operation Christmas Child, a charitable project run by Samaritan's Purse international relief organization, to distribute Christmas presents to needy children around the world. Employees donated small toys, school supplies, sweets and other gifts for distribution to families and local societies of various nationalities, political affiliations and religions. The entire project recorded that gifts were distributed to eight million children in 90 nations.

Social and Humanitarian Support
  Each year around the Christmas holidays, Anritsu Company (U.S.A.) employees participate in two local charity events benefiting the families and children. Make A Wish Come True/Make a Child Smile donates toys to needy children ages 1 - 17. The other program gives employees an opportunity to join together to present underprivileged regional families with donations of food, blankets and Christmas gifts.

Other Voluntary Work
  Several employees of Anritsu Company (U.S.A.) serve in committee member positions for NPOs including Community Solutions, the Chamber of Commerce, Leadership Morgan Hill, Pony Baseball league and the YMCA. Another association event that benefits from our employees is the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Light the Night walk in Richardson, TX. In Morgan Hill, CA, our employees also performed as Scoutmasters for the local Boy Scouts chapter, a Big Brothers and Big Sisters organization and coaches for youth sports.

Supporting Employee Volunteerism
  In April 2006, Anritsu Corporation started a support system for employees to volunteer on a short-term or longterm basis. To keep this system functioning effectively, we will consider methods to periodically provide our employees with information on volunteer activities or activities in cooperation with outside groups.
