TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) has taken the decision to file applications with the regulatory authorities of the respective stock exchanges referred to below, to have its shares (or, in the case of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, the depositary receipts in respect thereof) delisted from the Osaka Securities Exchange, the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and the Euronext Amsterdam.

The company expects to file the delisting applications with the relevant stock exchanges from August 2010 onwards and expects the delistings to be completed around December 2010.

As very few trades of the company's shares (or, in the case of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, the depositary receipts in respect thereof) take place on the Osaka Securities Exchange, the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and the Euronext Amsterdam, it is the company's understanding that the decision to delist from these three stock exchanges is unlikely to affect investors' and shareholders' interests; therefore, the company has decided to apply for a delisting from the three stock exchanges specified above.

Other stock exchanges on which the company's shares are listed, besides the Osaka Securities Exchange, the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and the Euronext Amsterdam are the Tokyo Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange.
