6. Incentive Eligibility Period and Repayment of Incentives

　The incentives from (1) to (3) are structured so that the full amount is granted when the business is continued for a certain period. (This period is called the incentive target period.)
　If the business office is closed or the business content is changed within the incentive target period, causing the incentive grant requirements to no longer be met, you will be required to return part or all of the granted incentives.
　The calculation of the incentive period and the refund amount is as follows

　Incentive Period
　i. For the incentive under (1) with a payment period of 5 years: 10 years
　ii. For the incentives under (1) to (3), except for i.: 6 years

　Refund of Incentives
　a. Within 3 years from the business start date: Full refund
　ii. Within the grant period exceeding 3 years from the business start date: Return half of the amount already granted
　iii. Within the incentive target period exceeding the grant period: Return {Amount already granted × (Incentive target period − Business continuation period) / Incentive target period}

　Example: Received an incentive grant for an incentive target period of 10 years (10 million yen per fiscal year granted for 5 years), but closed the business in the 8th year from the business start date
　50 million yen already paid × (10-year incentive period − 7-year business continuation period) / 10 years
　= 50 million yen × 3/10 = 15 million yen to be returned
