YKK collaborates with Spanish football giants Real Madrid for its unique
                           CSR initiative in India
                          Support Healthy Growth of Children through Sports

Mumbai, November 29, 2013: YKK Holding Asia (YHA) and YKK India Private Limited in the latest edition of its
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program continue to collaborate with the most valuable football club in the
world, Real Madrid, for their CSR initiative YKK Asia Group Kids Football Clinic that aims to support healthy
growth of children through sports.

YKK Asia Group’s annual CSR initiative, organized across the region focuses on providing a fun and valuable
experience for underprivileged children who are passionate for the game of football. The resounding success of
YKK Asia Group Kids Football Clinic over the years has encouraged YHA to continue the project in more
locations across countries like Bangladesh, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Sri
Lanka, Thailand and Vietnam.

India was termed as a ‘sleeping giant of world football’ by FIFA President Sepp Blatter. He also strongly said that
‘football will not grow unless India Participates’. The worlds’ best football clubs have already realized this and
assessed the potential in terms of talent and fan following for the game in India.

The 2 day clinic will be held between November 30th to December 1st in Mumbai – Close to 300 kids and 30
Coaches from the city will hone their skills at this camp.

Real Madrid Foundation coaches Pablo Gomez Revenga, Javier Garcia Torres and Ivan Garcia Sacristan will first
share the club’s training methodology and techniques with the local coaches. Once the coaches are trained, they
will be given a hands-on experience and assist Real Madrid coaches to conduct four clinics for kids from the city.
Majority of the participating kids are from orphanages or underprivileged homes. YKK hopes to bring a once in a
lifetime experience into the lives of these children in India.

Valuing the importance of constantly contributing to the society, YHA has made this as an annual event.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr Ken Nakano - President and CEO, YHA said "It is important for YKK to contribute
and work with local community. I believe that this event is a great opportunity for the children to experience
enjoyment through sport as well as develop their love for sport. We want to support their growth through this
initiative.”

Having run clinics for over a decade and more, the Real Madrid Foundation’s coaching team has brought their
world-class techniques to millions of children passionate for football around the world. Language and cultural
differences are no barriers for Pablo Gomez and his coaching team as football is a global language. The smiles on
the children’s faces are the most rewarding result from their coaching activities. Pablo feels excited that YKK
brought him and his team to India and is looking forward to see some talents.

hospitality. We have also realized that there is an overwhelming support for Real Madrid as a club in India” said
