We are very happy to announce that SOFTBANK will contribute to the largest ever fighting sports event "Dynamite!! USA", to be held in Los Angeles this coming June.

Fighting sport is becoming one of the most popular sports throughout the world. Behind the thrilling and vigorous competition scenes lay the competitors' untiring self-discipline and mental determination towards victory.

Impressed with the magnificence of fighting sports, SOFTBANK decided to enter into a partnership with FEG to make this event a great success. We have been distributing broadcasting rights and videogram rights throughout the world using SOFTBANK's global network. As a result the fighting competitions offered by FEG, such as "K-1", are currently viewed by spectators in more than 130 countries throughout Asia, Europe and Africa. As business partners we will combine FEG's excellent fighting sports content and know-how on organizing exciting events with SOFTBANK's strengths to pursue further global expansion.

We will fully support the new FEG event "Dynamite!! USA", and look forward to contribute to the creation of a new global movement starting in the USA. We believe that "Dynamite!! USA" will offer blood-tingling sport scenes to the audience

throughout the US and hope you will enjoy them.
