EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This is a Post-Effective Amendment (the “ Post-Effective Amendment ”) to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (No. 333-121098) (the “ Registration Statement ”) filed by Kyocera Corporation (the “ Company ”), registering shares of the Company’s common stock (“ Common Stock ”) for use as an investment alternative in the KDA Retirement Plan (the “ Plan ”).

 

In May 2016, the Common Stock was eliminated as an investment alternative under the Plan. A total of 60,000 shares of Common Stock were registered under the Registration Statement (after giving effect to a 2-1 stock split implemented in 2013). The Company is no longer issuing securities under the Plan. This Post-Effective Amendment is being filed in order to deregister all shares of Common Stock that were registered under the Registration Statement and remain unissued under the Plan. Accordingly, the Company hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, in accordance with an undertaking made in the Registration Statement, and removes from registration any and all securities of the Company registered but unsold under the Registration Statement.
