TOKYO, April 11, 2023 – Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today that Mitsubishi
Electric group will provide additional disaster relief in response to a request by Turkey’s Ministry of Interior
Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency (AFAD) in the form of 500 air conditioners (equivalent to
approx. 32 million yen) to be donated to temporary shelters that are urgently being set up in southern Turkey
following the earthquake that struck the region on February 6.

In addition to previously announced donations*, Mitsubishi Electric's local subsidiaries in Turkey have been
providing assistance to the affected areas since the earthquake, including donations of water, food, other daily
necessities and human blood. In addition to these support activities, Mitsubishi Electric group will now deliver
air conditioners to help improve the living environment in the affected areas.

This brings the total amount of the group's support to the areas affected by the earthquake in southern Turkey
to the equivalent of approx. 55 million yen. In addition, Mitsubishi Electric group also raised funds through
the Mitsubishi Electric SOCIO-ROOTS Fund, a matching gift program under which the company matched
and doubled the amount of donations made by its employees to social welfare facilities and organizations.

Mitsubishi Electric group expresses its deepest sympathy to all those affected by the earthquake and sincerely
hopes for the earliest possible recovery of the disaster-stricken areas.
