Proven Partnership
On July 11, 1960, Oriental Land was established.
At that time, Maihama was still part of the sea, but the Company’s
founder cherished one great hope for this place:
“Let’s create a genuine theme park, right here in Japan.”
That is the seed from which OLC grew.
The road to realizing that hope
—stretching out over half a century—
has not been smooth by any means.
Our first great challenge was land reclamation,
which created new value out of Maihama itself.
Maintaining their strong determination,
our predecessors steadfastly pursued their goal with a passion
we can scarcely imagine.
By sharing this strong founding hope among everyone at the OLC
Group, we have been able to overcome adversity many times over.
Slowly but surely, our great hope has come to fruition,
and continues to create new value as Tokyo Disney Resort.
Even now, this great hope is handed on to each and
every member of the OLC Group.
As we head into a new quarter-century,
toward the next 50 or 100 years, we are starting out again
on a new journey.
The “great hope” handed down to us from OLC’s founders is the source
of our competitive advantage and continues to support OLC’s growth.
We aim to bolster long-term, sustainable growth in corporate value
through maximizing these competitive advantages.

Further strengthen the core business (Tokyo Disney Resort) Establishing the foundation for new growth
Asoneofthemainpillarsofthe2010medium-termplan,westrove

infrastructure side and our human resource side at Tokyo Disney
Resort.
Ontheinfrastructureside,wehadtwograndopeningsofmajor
newfacilities—TokyoDisneylandHotel inJuly2008andCirque du
Soleil Theatre Tokyo in October 2008. At Tokyo Disneyland, we
began a new daytime parade “Jubilation!” and opened two new
attractions, “Monsters, Inc. Ride & Go Seek!” and “Mickey’s Philhar-
Magic.” At Tokyo DisneySea, we introduced new products as
planned, including the new attraction “Turtle Talk,” and the new
Disneycharactergreetingfacilities“SaludosAmigos!GreetingDock.”
Onthehumanresourceside,wefocusedonenhancingemployee
satisfaction from the perspective that it is important to build and
maintainanenvironmentforcastmembersinwhichtheyfeelgood
about their jobs—providing hospitality to guests. For the Tokyo
Disney Resort 25th Anniversary, we conducted the “Reminding
Program”—anewtrainingprogramcoveringallemployeesworking
at the resort—with the objective of helping cast members think
backtowhentheyfirstbeganatTokyoDisneyResort.Thisandother
programs are designed to maintain a high level of motivation
among cast members while creating a work environment that
encouragesemployeestoremainattheresortlong-term.
Inthisway,byimprovingqualityonboththephysicalinfrastruc-
ture and human resource sides of the business, we bolstered the

When Tokyo DisneySea first opened, all of the attractions were
completely new—they had been specifically developed for this
theme park. The sole exception was “Indiana Jones Adventure:

Enhancing value through improvements and creationTocontinuebringinghappinesstoourguestssincetheopeningof

satisfaction. Walt Disney said “Disneyland will never complete.”
Hence, day by day, we need to keep improving and creating the
theme park. For example, since the park first opened, we have
continuedtoimplementnewmeasurestorelievethesenseofcon-
gestion.FASTPASSisasystem,wherebyguestsregisterinadvance
the time they will enter an attraction, thereby enabling them to
enjoyattractionswithouthavingtolineupforlongperiods.When
Tokyo DisneySea opened, there were only three attractions that
used the FASTPASS system. But we have subsequently expanded
thesystemtoincludeafurtherfiveattractions.
TokyoDisneySeahasfromthebeginningincludedseveralareas
of landsetaside for thedevelopmentofnewattractions,andwe
have carried out development of these areas in accordance with
various themes. The introduction of new attractions not only
providesacatalystforgueststovisitthethemeparkbutalsoleads
to the expansion of the park’s capacity. In addition, by arranging
large-scaleattractionssystematically,weareabletobetterdistrib-
uteguestflowaroundthepark.Asaresult,wehavebeenableto
provide guests with an experience that feels less crowded and
henceguestsatisfactionhasbeenenhanced.

The Continuing Evolution of Tokyo DisneySea—Celebrating the 10th Anniversary
Tokyo DisneySea opened on September 4, 2001. In the 10 years since then, the theme park has continued to grow, driven by improvements and creation. Looking ahead, we are committed to ensuring that Tokyo DisneySea evolves to its next stage of growth.

Bringing happiness to a broader range of target segmentsSince its opening, we have fostered the development of Tokyo
DisneySea’s own distinctive brand that is differentiated from the

Market research indicates that childhood experiences of visiting

extremelyimportant.

Response to the Great East Japan Earthquake
The buildings and facilities at Tokyo Disney Resort were spared serious damage thanks to the preventative measures against liquefaction we adopted at the time of construction and subsequent seismic strengthening work, as well as the implementation of appropriate routine maintenance inspections. The earthquake did not lead to any casualties or injuries among our guests or employees. Going forward, we will redouble our efforts to establish measures to ensure the safety of facilities within the Tokyo Disney Resort should another such disaster occur. At the same time, we will strive to enhance our ability to provide high-quality hospitality even in emergency situations.

Business Mission Corporate Governance
Basic Systems
Business Execution
In response to changes in the operating environment, OLC has introduced a Corporate Officer System in order
to strengthen overall control of Group management and enhance corporate governance. The purpose of the
Corporate Officer System is to more clearly define supervisory and executive responsibilities in each of the OLC
Group’s businesses, strengthen the management supervisory functions of directors by shifting the focus of
their roles to supervision and accelerate decision making by promoting delegation of authority to corporate
officers.
Appointment of directors
As described in the Company’s articles of incorporation, the appointment of directors must be approved by a
majority vote at a General Meeting of Stockholders at which stockholders whose voting rights exceed one-third
of the total voting rights are present. Furthermore, the appointment of directors may not be approved by cu-
mulative voting.
We will continue working to strengthen corporate governance, based on our understanding of the importance of raising
management transparency and fairness, achieving sustainable growth and development and fulfilling our social responsibili-
ties. Specifically, we aim to strengthen corporate governance by reinforcing internal controls, promoting reinforcement of
management oversight functions and increasing management transparency.
By conducting honest management that emphasizes corporate ethics through these measures, we aim to increase our
corporate value.
We aim to constantly maintain a perspective at the forefront of each era as we strive for emotion as a company. As we move ever closer to our ideal, we have a firm conviction in its realization.
Our greatest asset is our imagination. It may be said that imagination is the Earth’s only inexhaustible resource. Utilizing this asset, we pursue our business of bringing abundant humanity and happiness.
In the lives of people today, emotions that we tend to cast aside, dreams that we harbor deep in our hearts, moving experiences that uplift our souls, joy that makes life worth living, a true sense of peace that provides us with rejuvenation…
It is the mission of Oriental Land to bring all of these to each and every person.
Acting in accordance with this business mission, we have strengthened corporate governance
aiming to increase our corporate value and fulfilled our social responsibilities.
Our mission is to create happiness and contentment by offering wonderful dreams and moving
experiences created with original, imaginative ideas.

Board of Directors
The Board of Directors consists of 12 directors, including one external director. Board of Directors’ meetings are
held once a month in principle. All corporate auditors attend the meetings, whether or not they hold standing
positions.
All directors and corporate auditors, who have different duties, monitor management from their own unique
perspectives. Additionally, directors conduct extensive deliberation in accordance with the Company’s man-
agement policies to ensure that the Company’s operations are not in violation of laws, regulations or the arti-
cles of incorporation in any manner.
Executive Committee
The Executive Committee makes decisions and files reports regarding important matters, excluding items to be
resolved by the Board of Directors, pertaining to the management of the Company.
Theme Park Committee
The Theme Park Committee makes decisions and files reports relating to the operation and business execution
of the theme park business.
Corporate Auditors
In the Corporate Auditor System adopted by the Company, the two standing corporate auditors attend meet-
ings of the Board of Directors, the Executive Committee and the Theme Park Committee, as well as other meet-
ings and committees the corporate auditors deem important, where they state their opinions. Three of the four
corporate auditors are external auditors, a structure that actively incorporates opinions from an objective and
independent standpoint to enable effective audits. Furthermore, to assist the corporate auditors in their duties,
a specialized staff has been assembled within the Corporate Auditor Office, which is a body that is independent
from the executive arm of the Company.
Board of Corporate Auditors
In accordance with auditing policy and its basic audit plan, corporate auditors carry out activities including lis-
tening to reports from directors, officers and employees and viewing important documents, while working to
ensure the effectiveness of its audits by discussing the status of deliberation at important meetings, audit re-
sults and other matters among the corporate auditors.
As a means of establishing and maintaining good corporate governance, the Company has clarified the
corporate auditors’ role and work responsibilities by setting the Regulations for the Board of Corporate Auditors
and the Audit Standards for Corporate Auditors.
Internal Control
The Company has enhanced internal control with the establishment of an Internal Auditing Department to
conduct internal audits on compliance with laws and internal rules as well as efficient business execution. This
department is separate from the executive arm of the Company to ensure that it can conduct unbiased audits.
Internal audits are conducted with the goal of improving managerial efficiency and profitability. Furthermore,
the Internal Auditing Department objectively investigates and evaluates whether or not business operations
are in compliance with management policies and plans as well as internal regulations, and also that they are
conducted in an efficient manner. The department offers advice as it deems necessary.
Independent Accounting Auditors
To ensure accurate accounting, we receive audits by KPMG AZSA LLC.
Our designated unlimited liability and engagement partners from KPMG AZSA LLC are certified public ac-
countants Eiji Mizutani and Hiroaki Komatsu. Additionally, a total of 11 accountants and assistants engage in
other accounting auditing activities.
Corporate Governance
Practice of the OLC-WAY
Even with our thorough governance systems in place, ultimately the
awareness of the people who use these systems will decide if they will
function or not. In recognition of this fact, the OLC Group is working to
spread and provide education about the OLC-WAY, a set of shared prom-
ises among all officers and employees. Having all officers and employees
fulfill the promises of “Honesty,” “Proactive Execution” and “Healthy Con-
flict” contained in the OLC-WAY will foster a highly compliance-aware
corporate culture and corporate climate.
Reinforcing the Internal Control System
Compliance
We have established the OLC Group Code of Compliance, which outlines the rules for officers’ and employees’
compliance with ethics and laws, and the Business Guideline, which outlines specific standards for the practice
of compliance.
Strengthening Operations to Ensure Compliance
We set up the Compliance Committee, which is chaired by a designee of the president, to ensure the legality
of the Company’s management and to promote a spirit of compliance. If the committee discovers misconduct
by an officer or employee or a serious violation of law or the Company’s articles of incorporation, it conducts
the necessary investigations and reports its findings to management or to the Executive Committee and the
Board of Corporate Auditors. Moreover, we have set up an Employee Consultation Office as a channel for inter-
nal reporting within the OLC Group.
Furthermore, we institute education programs related to compliance once a year in principle. These
programs are custom-tailored for various different ranks of employees. All employees participate in these pro-
grams, which serve as an opportunity for the sharing of information and awareness related to compliance
issues. We also implement strict monitoring to ensure the effectiveness of measures related to compliance.
From the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, the OLC Group is developing more practical education for regular
employees with the introduction of original e-learning that was produced by the OLC Group’s compliance
managers and group discussions that use case studies.
Risk Management System
In order to entrench the risk management system, the OLC Group Risk Management Guidelines, which outline
basic rules of conduct, have been established. In addition, the Risk Management Committee, chaired by the
president, identifies, analyzes, evaluates and prioritizes risks that the OLC Group faces, and manages the overall
risk management cycle to formulate individual preventative and response measures, evaluate these measures
and constantly pursue their improvement. Furthermore, we are bolstering our responsiveness toward unfore-
seen risks through the ECC (Emergency Control Center), a response unit consisting of the president and other
related personnel that works to manage response systems in the event that risks materialize.
1. Honesty Focus not only on your own good and the good of the organization, but also on the good of everyone else.
2. Proactive Execution There is no need for excuses or criticism. Act without fear of mistakes.
3. Healthy Conflict The precedent is not necessarily the best. Discuss matters starting from zero and heading toward the goal.
OLC-WAY
OLC Group Code of Compliance
The OLC Group’s officers and employees have a strong ethical commitment to
compliance with external laws and regulations and internal rules.
1. Prioritize safety above all else.
2. Respect human rights and prevent discrimination and harassment.
3. Engage in fair and transparent transactions.
4. Strictly control confidential information including personal information.
5. Take a firm stance toward anti-social organizations.

Corporate Governance
Information Security Management System
The OLC Group’s fundamental policies regarding information security are outlined in the OLC Group Funda-
mental Information Security Policy, while specific rules of conduct are defined in the OLC Group Information
Security Policy. Acting in accordance with the OLC Group Information Security Policy, we are enhancing our
information security management systems by defining regulations regarding the handling of information,
documents and information security systems. Additionally, we have been working to improve the level of infor-
mation security management through the creation of an Information Security Management Subcommittee in
the Risk Management Committee. These two organizations oversee the management of information.
Reinforcing Decision Making, Authority and Responsibilities
We have defined the administrative duties of each department and the Company’s ranking system in the
Organizational Rules, and the authority of each position and the chain of command in the Rules of Administra-
tive Authority, in order to ensure directors’ efficient execution of duties.
Group Management System
By principle, corporate governance systems of the Company also apply to its subsidiaries. Representatives from
subsidiaries are present among the members of the various committees we have developed to strengthen our
corporate governance systems and subsidiaries are expected to adhere to all Company regulations. Addition-
ally, we have established Management Regulations for Associated Companies to serve as a guideline for the
appropriate management of subsidiaries.
Reinforcing Management Oversight Functions
Utilizing External Directors and External Auditors
External directors receive reports on the results of accounting and other audits of the Board of Directors and
give advice or make suggestions as necessary to ensure the validity and appropriateness of the decisions made
by the Board. The presence of outside perspectives helps guarantee the justness of management. Also, the
external directors offer prudent advice based on their wealth of experience and wide-ranging insights, further
enhancing management’s ability to make appropriate decisions.
The external auditors receive reports on the results of the independent accounting auditors’ reviews and
audits of the Company’s financial statements for the first through third quarters. They also exchange opinions
regarding the Company’s operations throughout the fiscal year while remaining well versed on a variety of
Company-related information. The external auditors also help bolster cooperation within the Company’s audit-
ing systems by adjusting auditing plans together with the Internal Auditing Department and requesting a re-
port from the Internal Auditing Department each time it conducts an audit.
Reporting to Corporate Auditors
Directors and corporate officers of the Company quickly report risks that may greatly damage the Company
and occurrences that may significantly affect management to corporate auditors. In urgent cases, employees
may report such occurrences directly to the corporate auditors. We promote the timely reporting of necessary
and pertinent information for audits with the formulation of the Policy for Reporting to Auditors, which stipu-
lates what matters officers and employees must report to the corporate auditors, as well as the timing and
method of reporting.
Additionally, should the corporate auditors discover that a director is acting in violation of laws, regulations
or the articles of incorporation they will report this fact to the Board of Directors.
Ensuring the Reliability of Financial Reports
To ensure the reliability of financial reports we have established the Internal Control Committee, which pro-
motes all areas of our internal control system for financial reporting as set forth in the Financial Instruments and
Exchange Law. Additionally, we have prepared systems in order to allow for mutual cooperation between de-
partments responsible for constructing and evaluating the OLC Group’s internal control systems.
We have judged that our internal controls for consolidated financial reporting were effective as of March 31,
2011, and submitted an internal control report on the results of the evaluation. The contents are being audited
by an external auditor. The OLC Group will continue working to reinforce internal controls through ongoing
evaluations of the system’s condition and application.
Increasing Management Transparency
Compensation Paid to Directors and Corporate Auditors and Audit Compensation
In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, compensation paid to directors and corporate auditors and compensa-
tion paid to independent auditors (compensation for services prescribed in Article 2, Paragraph 1 of the Certi-
fied Public Accountant Law of Japan and compensation for other services) was as follows.

Total 86
Note: The Company’s auditing contract with the independent auditors does not clearly differentiate compensation for auditing as based on the Company Law or the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law. Because the amounts cannot be practically differentiated, compensation, etc., for the period is listed in the total.
Policy for Determining Compensation Paid to Directors and Corporate Auditors
Directors are compensated in the form of set monthly payments only. The amount to be paid is determined in
accordance with policies accepted by the Board of Directors and must not exceed a limit decided at the
General Meeting of Stockholders. This amount is decided based on the position, roles and responsibilities of
each director as well as in consideration of how well they met management and individual goals and how
much they contributed to the management of the Company.
Corporate auditors are compensated in the form of set monthly payments only. The amount to be paid is
determined through negotiation with the corporate auditors and must not exceed a limit decided at
the General Meeting of Stockholders.
There is no set policy for determining the compensation of independent accounting auditors. When
deciding this compensation, the Company takes into account such factors as the number of days used to
conduct audits.

Corporate Governance
Policy Regarding Control of the Company (Outline)
The OLC Group’s management policy is to raise corporate value by continuing to be a company that is
widely loved and familiar, deepening the trust and understanding of all its stakeholders and maximizing
the resulting cash flow.
This management policy is aimed at continued long-term growth and is not meant for pursuing short-term
profits. The Company will not categorically reject the reform or vitalization of management through the
transfer of rights to control the Company, nor obstruct an acquisition with the potential to further enhance
corporate value or the common benefit of stockholders. The Company currently has no specific predeter-
mined anti-hostile takeover measures. However, the Company believes it is inappropriate for an individual or
financial entity who may work to the detriment of the Company’s corporate value (including individuals or
financial entities that attempt to manage without regard to the Company’s management policies) to control
decision making regarding the Company’s financial or operational policy. In the event such an individual or fi-
nancial entity should appear, the Board of Directors will consider appropriate measures with outside experts
and implement countermeasures in response to conditions.
Investor Relations (IR) Activities of OLC
Top management, corporate officers and general managers are supported by a specialized IR staff consisting of
six members. This staff constantly endeavors to improve the transparency and speed of information disclosure.
We aim to disclose information in an easy-to-understand manner through such means as transmitting on-
demand video presentations of financial results and voice files of quarterly financial teleconferences, as well as
by providing materials in Japanese and English that are geared toward investors who are unfamiliar with OLC.
Conducting Active Information and Disclosure Transmitting Feedback throughout the Company
OLC values opportunities for management to communicate directly with stockholders. The Company holds
discussion forums with its stockholders and investors, participates in conferences throughout Japan and
overseas that are organized by securities companies and conducts Company explanations for private investors
and securities companies.
We not only make reports to management, we also hold internal explanatory meetings for individual
departments that use our financial results meeting materials over 50 times a year in order to communicate
opinions of stockholders and investors to employees in detail. In addition, the several thousands of opinions,
suggestions and evaluations received from our approximately 120,000 individual stockholders through
questionnaires were sorted by content for regular feedback for appropriate managers and departments so we
could work to improve our management and business activities.
External Evaluations of the OLC Group’s IR Activities
OLC’s IR activities, characterized by the active disclosure of information, have been highly evaluated by
external organizations, and have thus received a number of awards. In the fiscal year ended March 31,
2011, we were awarded the FY2010 Best IR Award presented by the Japan Investor Relations Association
(JIRA) and the 2010 Award for Superior Corporate Disclosure, which is presented by the Tokyo Stock
Exchange. Additionally, OLC’s annual report received the Excellence Awards at the Annual Report Awards
2010 hosted by Nikkei Inc. due to its superiority as an IR tool.

Interview with an External Corporate Auditor
Akiyasu Nakano Corporate Auditor (External)
Attorney at Law
Q. What have you found to be important throughout your
three years of experience as an external corporate auditor
for OLC?
My role is to offer appropriate advice to OLC with regards to
its corporate management. In doing this, I take an objective
perspective from outside of the Company, focusing on the areas
that are often overlooked by those working within the Company.
This basic stance has not changed throughout my three years at
this post.
In particular, as a lawyer, I can view the Company’s management
from a very specialized legal perspective, allowing me to utilize my
legal expertise and insight in offering advice to and monitoring
management. Additionally, my experience as an external auditor at
other companies during these three years has served to supple-
ment my knowledge of the daily operations of companies. There-
fore, I am able to fulfill my duty as a corporate auditor by offering
opinions based on a wide range of viewpoints.
Q. How would you evaluate the effectiveness of OLC’s
corporate governance systems?
In order to perform effective audits, it is first necessary for me to
be provided with sufficient information regarding the Company’s
management. OLC provides all corporate auditors with the infor-
mation necessary for making management and other decisions.
This helps facilitate the rigorous exchange of opinions and discus-
sion conducted by the Board of Corporate Auditors. Further,
based on this information, the corporate auditors and directors
engage in open discussions at meetings of the Board of Directors
and other such forums to determine the appropriateness of OLC’s
business and management policies. As important decisions are
made following such exchanges, I believe that the decision-
making process at OLC is highly effective.
Moreover, communicating the decisions made by the Company’s
management and the reasoning behind these decisions to all em-
ployees is important in ensuring the effectiveness of corporate
governance systems. This is not an easy task for a company as large
as OLC. For this reason, I have always made sure to remind OLC’s
management of the importance of strengthening its systems
for communicating information throughout the Company. From
this perspective, I can say that these systems are functioning
effectively, as represented by the ability of OLC’s employees to
respond appropriately to the Great East Japan Earthquake.
OLC has developed an emergency response manual, and
employees were able to react to this disaster appropriately in ac-
cordance with this manual. This manual was primarily created by
OLC’s employees, and it truly reflects this in its nature. I believe it is
because this manual was created by OLC’s employees that all
employees were able to gain such a strong understanding of its
contents. However, no matter how superior a manual is, it will
mean nothing at the actual site of a disaster if nobody knows
about it. For this reason, OLC periodically holds education and
training seminars relating to this manual. OLC’s ability to weather
this disaster without any major accidents occurring and without a
single employee or guest sustaining injury was the result of the
fast action of its employees attributable to continuous training, as
well as to their acting in accordance with OLC’s great hope to
“bringing the highest degree of happiness to our guests.” In other
words, this was due the fact that the actions of employees ex-
ceeded those described in the manual. This hope was effectively
communicated to all employees, empowering them to act on
their own accord, even in a moment of crisis.
Q. What must OLC do in the future to achieve sustainable
growth?
It is my belief that companies grow stronger by transmitting infor-
mation. This does not just refer to the good news. I think it is
important that companies also actively transmit the bad news to
outside sources. It goes without saying that such bad news will be
met with a variety of responses from outside of the Company.
However, I believe that openly facing these responses and then
strengthening and improving criticized areas through repeated
discussion helps a company grow. OLC is currently conducting
such proactive information disclosure. Nevertheless, it is my opin-
ion that OLC has the potential to achieve even greater levels of
sustainable growth by redoubling its efforts to quickly and accu-
rately disclose such information in its own unique way.

We understand that safety and quality control initiatives are of the utmost importance in ensuring that all
guests are able to enjoy our theme parks with peace of mind. Therefore, the OLC Group places safety as the
highest priority in the operation of its theme parks.
SCSE Conduct Guidelines
Disney theme parks are operated based on the SCSE (Safety,
Courtesy, Show and Efficiency) conduct guidelines. The four
quality standards that guide the operational decisions and be-
havior of all of our cast members are designed to ensure that we
provide the highest levels of service to all of our guests. The or-
der in which the letters are presented also represents the order
of importance.
Bolstering Theme Park Safety
We practice thorough safety management and have developed standards and guidelines to ensure the safety
of attractions, shows and parades. All attractions have been designed with safety as their highest priority. Also,
we regularly inspect all attractions to confirm and manage their safety. In addition to the legal requirements,
we also conduct daily and other regular inspections based on our internal Maintenance Standard, which is
significantly stricter than the legal requirements. Through these efforts, we are working to bolster the safety of
our theme parks.

Quality and the OLC Group Food Safety Policy, we strive to ensure that we provide products that are both safe
and high quality through the implementation of thorough product development and food safety manage-
ment measures in cooperation with partner manufacturing plants and suppliers.
Security and Disaster Response Systems
The emergency response operations team monitors Tokyo Disney Resort 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to
ensure that fires and other abnormalities have not occurred. The team inspects and maintains firefighting
equipment and is responsible for all fire prevention operations within the theme parks. They also oversee
operation of the Central Disaster Control Monitoring Center, provide guidance and supervision in fire preven-
tion activities and are responsible for theme park security.
In the event of a fire, the Central Disaster Control Monitoring Center will request immediate dispatching of
firefighting units via its direct hotline to the Urayasu City Fire Department, while our own firefighting team will
take initial measures to tackle any fire. Employees participate in regular education and training programs to
ensure their ability to provide evacuation guidance and extinguish fires to maintain guest safety.
Emergency Response Methods
We have developed an emergency response manual that is designed to enable cast members to take prompt
action in the event of an earthquake or other emergency at theme parks, and conduct comprehensive emer-
gency drills and area-specific drills twice a year to ensure that our employees fully understand the procedures in
the emergency response manual. In addition, we gather information on disaster prevention from government
organizations and specialists with the intent of increasing knowledge and improving skills within the Group.
The manual ensures that we are ready to take prompt action in the event of a natural disaster. Several sites
have been identified within the two theme parks that can be used for evacuation. So, appropriate evacuation
areas can be designated as the situation demands. We will also set up temporary emergency shelters to facili-
tate emergency assistance.
We will continue to provide training on a regular basis so as to ensure our ability to provide the optimal
response in any emergency.
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
We remain committed to bring happiness to our Guests and the community through business opera-
tions that give due consideration to the diversifying values of our customers and by addressing con-
cerns and matters related to the community as a whole.
Pursuing Normalization
At Tokyo Disney Resort, we are continuing our efforts to establish facilities that are barrier-free and other sup-
port systems for guests with disabilities. We are also conducting employee education and training programs to
bolster our ability to offer disabled guests service that better meets their individual needs. Furthermore, a num-
ber of employees have voluntarily learned sign language, and we have accordingly established a certification
system within the Company to support such activities.
(Currently approximately 100 employees have received certification)
Learning from Guest Feedback
The comments from guests visiting Tokyo Disney Resort offer myriad clues as to how we can make the
resort even better. These comments are analyzed and shared within the Company, and we use them to
explore and implement a wide range of measures aimed at improving the safety and quality of our
services and facilities.
Examples of Facilities and Services Improved due to Guest Feedback
Discomfort while waiting in line for attractions for long periods of time on hot days
Installed parasols to keep guests from being exposed to direct sunlight and misting water to lower temperatures around attractions
Separation of smoking areas in theme parksPlanted shrubbery around smoking areas to reduce the spread of second-hand smoke by preventing the release of smoke and changed the color of path markers and set signs leading to smoking areas
INCORPORATING THE SOCIAL PERSPECTIvES AND NEEDS INTO OUR BUSINESS
PROvIDING THE PEACE OF MIND THAT COMES FROM SAFETY
The OLC Group will continue to partake in various activities involving guests, communities, the environment, and employees
to create a future filled with dreams that enrich people’s lives.

OLC Group Policy on Community Action ProgramsThe OLC Group seeks to engage in community action programs that focus on the positive development of children—our hope for the future—as a means of creating healthy and happy families, regions and communities.
Programs Fostering the Positive Development of Children The OLC Group will support programs that “nurture the heart” with a view toward developing
intellectual curiosity and consideration for others in children.
Programs that Support Children The OLC Group will support programs that provide assistance to children who have been placed at a
disadvantage for various reasons.
The OLC Group has established an Environmental Policy that sets forth guidelines for action and our
philosophy governing the Group’s environmental activities. The Group has established the Environment
Committee to promote the environmental activities of the Group. This committee is chaired by the execu-
tive manager of our General Affairs Department and is responsible for planning environmental activities
and for setting the Company’s targets in this area.
Electric power and other energy resources are vital to the running of theme parks. However, we are ac-
tively working to reduce CO2 emissions and energy consumption, and define environmentally conscious
practices as a prerequisite for our business operations. In these manners, we are working to reduce the
environmental impact of our operations through a variety of different means.
Measures against Global Warming
The OLC Group is working to prevent global warming by promoting measures to reduce CO2 emissions and
energy consumption. We have been working to reduce CO2 emissions through such initiatives as reducing
energy consumption by installing a new large-scale heat pump in our central energy plant*. Furthermore, in
order to reduce energy consumption, we have established the Energy Management System, and have been
combining a diverse range of measures including promoting the visibility of energy-related issues, as well as
changing several lights in buildings and those used in night parades to light-emitting diodes (LEDs).* Rather than building heat pumps for each of the facilities in our theme parks, such as attractions, restaurants and shops, we built a central heat
pump, which distributes the heat used in the air conditioners in all of these facilities.
Initiatives to Reduce Waste
We have been working to reduce waste by installing hand dryers* in restrooms and using tableware made of
porcelain, ceramic and metal in dining facilities. Additionally, we are aggressively promoting recycling through
such initiatives as the appropriate disposal of waste and separating garbage based on highly detailed specifica-
tions. As a result of these measures, we have raised the recycling rate for Tokyo Disney Resort as a whole from
less than 50% in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2003—the first full year of operation of Tokyo DisneySea—to
approximately 70% in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011. Among the various recycling categories, the recy-
cling rate for kitchen garbage at the theme parks is now almost 100%.* According to the power supply/demand situation, hand dryers will be turned off in order to conserve electricity.
Water Treatment
The precious water used at Tokyo Disney Resort is collected and purified at the Company’s own water treat-
ment facilities. Furthermore, approximately 60% of used water is subsequently recycled and used in toilets.
Additionally, through the establishment of the OLC Group Water Supply and Disposal Guidelines, we are con-
structing systems to enable optimal plumbing management and operation, as well as developing an emer-
gency procedure flow-chart for issues relating to water usage.
Our mission as a Group is to offer dreams, moving experiences, happiness and contentment, and our com-
munity action programs focus on the “heart.” Support for the well-being of children and families is deeply
rooted in our business and we put particular emphasis on programs that support positive childhood de-
velopment, since children are our future. Our support for the development of children involves providing
entertaining educational experiences.
Programs to Educate Children in Local Communities
The OLC Group is actively involved in work experience study programs and hosting classes in schools. The
Group’s work experience study program gives children the opportunity to gain firsthand experience of
the various tasks that take place behind the scenes at Tokyo Disney Resort, and to learn that all jobs are
connected to the happiness of our guests.
Delivering the Dream of Our Theme Parks
By visiting hospitals and other facilities nationwide, the OLC Group has been working to deliver the Disney
dream to people who are unable to visit Tokyo Disney Resort as an ongoing commitment since Tokyo
Disneyland opened to the public in 1983.
In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, Disney characters and Tokyo Disney Resort Ambassadors visited a
total of 34 facilities.
ENvIRONMENTAL PROTECTION ACTIvITIES
OLC Group Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
Oriental Land Co., Ltd. is committed to creating a corporate culture that inspires, empowers and energizes
our employees since they provide Guests with wonderful dreams, moving experiences, joy and contentment.
Furthermore, we have introduced a variety of education programs matched to each work area and a
career advancement program. Additionally, we are implementing a number of measures to help employ-
ees develop harmony between their work and private lives while also promoting occupational health and
safety.
Training and Career Development
As stated in our management credo, we are committed to “respect individuals and support their work” and offer
our employees both the opportunity to maximize their potential and a range of programs that give our employ-
ees the support they need to enhance their professional skills. Our employees are encouraged to pursue career
development opportunities within the Group, and we have a system that enables part-time employees to apply
for theme park employee status and for theme park employees to apply to become corporate employees.
Enhancing the Work Environment and Work-Related Systems
Aligned with our business mission, which emphasizes the value of original and imaginative ideas, the OLC
Group is striving to develop a corporate culture in which all employees think about how to achieve this mission.
For example, OLC has developed a program in which ideas received from employees are utilized at Tokyo Disney
Resort. To date, ideas received through this program have successfully resulted in improvements to facilities, in
new merchandize and in menu items for special events.
For child care and nursing support systems, employees are entitled to take a leave of absence for childcare,
regardless of gender, until the day before the child reaches one year of age, and may opt to extend this leave
of absence under an independent initiative. We have allowed employees to take a leave of absence by the hour
since April 2011.

Message from the Officer in Charge of the Finance / Accounting Department
Steady Strengthening of the Financial FoundationThe OLC Group is currently preparing to create new growth. However, it must first develop a strong financial foundation to be able to target long-term sustainable improvements in corporate value. This is because reducing interest-bearing debt enables a company to devote its funds to future invest-ments. In the past three years, OLC has reduced its interest-bearing debt approximately ¥150.0 billion. Through these efforts, interest-bearing debt totaled ¥142.9 billion at the end of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, and the debt-to-equity ratio was 0.40 times. By steadily strengthening our finan-cial foundation, we will bolster our ability to respond swiftly when difficult management decisions need to be made. Our ability to respond to the effects of the Great East Japan Earthquake was not only because of the safety of our facilities and our employees’ ability to respond to this disaster but also thanks to our strong financial foundation. As the OLC Group had set aside liquid capital that was sufficient enough to fund operations into the near future, it was able to continue operation without procuring additional funds. Going forward, we will continue to strengthen our financial foundation to enable us to respond quickly to any risks that may occur.
Improved Operating Margin and Record-Breaking Operating IncomeIn the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, we achieved record-breaking operating income of ¥53.7 billion, regardless of the lower revenues that were caused by the effects of the earthquake. Also, the operating margin showed significant improvement at 15.1%. The operating margin has continued to improve for the past three fiscal years. Over the past several years, we have worked to reduce costs and improve return on investment. Accordingly, we have seen decreases in the
variable cost ratio, fixed costs and depreciation and amortization expenses, as well as the abovementioned improvements in the operating margin. In particular, the operating margin of the Theme Park Segment has shown impressive improvement, rising 4.3 percentage points, to 15.9% in the fiscal year under review. We believe that the speed of recovery following the earthquake will be heavy affected by changes in the market. Therefore, we must continue to closely monitor costs and return on investment for the foreseeable future. By building strong business infrastructure, we will lay the foundation on which we will achieve future growth.
Continued Focus on Stockholder ReturnsBy further strengthening OLC’s business foundation in these manners, we aim to create stable free cash flow and long-term sustainable improvements in corporate value. Leveraging this free cash flow, we intend to maintain our focus on stockholder returns. In the fiscal year under review, net income was down year on year due to the recording of extraordinary loss associated with the Great East Japan Earthquake. However, in accordance with our policy of maintaining stable stockholder returns, we have chosen to pay cash dividends for the year of ¥100 per share, the same as in the previous fiscal year. Going forward, we will strive to maintain stable dividends while taking into account factors in the external operating environment that may affect our operations. In the past three years, we have repurchased shares of the Company’s stock totaling ¥71.6 billion in value. While we were anticipating ROE of over 8% in the fiscal year under review, the effects of the earthquake resulted in ROE of 6.3%. Though we must address external factors as they affect our operations, our goal of achieving ROE of over 8% at the earliest date possible remains unchanged.
Financial Policy of OLC
The OLC Group will aim to improve corporate value in a manner that is sustainable in the long term by further strengthening its business foundation.The OLC Group has formulated its 2013 medium-term plan. The plan calls for the Group to achieve sustainable growth
in its core business, the operation of the Tokyo Disney Resort, so that it can create abundant free cash flow to be used
for future investment and stockholder returns. In addition to steadily implementing the measures outlined in this plan,
the Group is taking a long-term stance toward management. The Great East Japan Earthquake temporarily damaged
our business performance. Reflecting on this, we have decided to further strengthen our business foundation in order
to improve corporate value in a manner that is sustainable in the long term.

Operating Income
Operating income set a new record at ¥53.7 billion (up 28.0%). This was due
to increased revenues in the Theme Park Segment, which has particularly
high profit margins, reduced variable cost ratio and lower fixed costs. The
operating margin improved 3.8 percentage points, to 15.1%.
Theme Park Segment
In the Theme Park Segment, operating income increased 39.0% year on year,
to ¥46.2 billion, due to reductions in the variable cost ratios and fixed
expenses, in addition to an increase in revenues.
The reduction in variable cost ratios including the cost of merchandise
ratio and cost of food and beverages ratio was ¥2.5 billion, whereas the
reduction in personnel expenses, depreciation and amortization expenses
and other fixed expenses totaled ¥9.3 billion.
Hotel Business Segment
Despite a decrease in revenues due to the suspension of operations,
operating income in the Hotel Business Segment increased 0.2% year on
year, to ¥8.4 billion, as a result of a decrease in depreciation and amortization
expenses, among other factors.
Other Business Segment
Operating loss in the Other Business Segment was ¥1.2 billion, loss ¥1.1
billion year on year owing to an increase in the facility renovation costs of
Ikspiari, in addition to a fall in revenues as a result of the impact of the suspen-
sion of operations.
Please see the review of consolidated operations on pages 24 through 29
for detailed segment information.
Other Income (Expenses) and Income before Income Taxes
Other expenses totaled ¥15.6 billion, compared with other expenses of ¥4.1
billion for the previous fiscal year. Loss on disaster of ¥9.7 billion attributable
to the earthquake was recorded.
As a result of the above, income before income taxes increased 0.8%
compared with the previous fiscal year, to ¥38.1 billion
Income Taxes
Income taxes were ¥15.2 billion (up 23.0%). The effective tax rate, calculated
as the ratio of income taxes to income before income taxes, rose 7.2
percentage points, to 39.9%
Net Income
Net income was ¥22.9 billion (down 9.9%). Net income per share decreased
to ¥265.26. ROE became 6.3%.
Assets
Total assets as of March 31, 2011 were ¥574.6 billion (down 6.6%).
Total current assets declined to ¥65.4 billion (down 26.2%) due to decrease
in cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable−trade and
short-term investment securities, among other factors.
Total non-current assets dropped to ¥509.3 billion (down 3.3%) due to
various factors, including a decrease in property, plant and equipment as a
result of the continued depreciation and amortization of facilities at Tokyo
Disney Resort.
In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, corporate earnings in Japan began a
recovery trend, sustained by effective economic policies and improvements
in the economic environment, including the recovery of exports. Consumer
spending, however, remained sluggish, reflecting such factors as the deterio-
rating employment and income conditions. In addition, we are concerned
that the Great East Japan Earthquake will exert various negative influences in
the days ahead. Under these circumstances, the financial performance of the
OLC Group was favorable up until the end of the third quarter, significantly
exceeding the results of the same period of the previous fiscal year. The
strong performance was attributable to the fact that events held at the two
theme parks were successful and Tokyo DisneySea’s fan base continued to
expand in the Theme Park Segment, the mainstay business of the Group.
However, in light of external factors, namely, the Great East Japan Earthquake
and subsequent power shortages, we suspended operations of all facilities at
Tokyo Disney Resort.
As a result of the above and the transference of the Retail Business
Segment, revenues decreased 4.1% year on year, to ¥356.2 billion. However,
due to reductions in the cost of merchandise ratio, cost of food and bever-
ages ratio and depreciation and amortization expenses, operating income
increased 28.0%, to ¥53.7 billion. Meanwhile, net income declined 9.9%, to
¥22.9 billion, owing in part to the fact that extraordinary expenses such as
fixed expenses (including personnel expenses and depreciation and amorti-
zation expenses) incurred during suspension of operations, facility restora-
tion expenses and merchandise disposal loss were recorded as a result of the
earthquake.
There were no human casualties or injuries caused by the earthquake
among our guests or employees. The buildings and facilities at the theme
parks and other sites were also spared serious damage and no liquefaction
phenomenon was observed with the exception of a portion of the flat
parking area.

Revenues
Revenues for the OLC Group decreased 4.1% compared with the previous
fiscal year, to ¥356.2 billion. While revenues increased in the Theme Park
Segment, this was offset by factors such as the transference of the Retail
Business Segment in March 2010, resulting in an overall decrease.
Theme Park Segment
Theme Park Segment revenues were ¥290.5 billion (up 1.1%). Park attendance
was strong and greatly exceeded last year’s numbers for the majority of the
year, driven by the openings of new attractions, the growing fan base of Tokyo
DisneySea and the favorable weather seen throughout the year. However, we
were forced to close both parks since March 12, 2011 due to the effects of the
Great East Japan Earthquake, resulting in lower park attendance of 25.37
million people (down 1.8%). Regardless, revenues per guest set a record high at
¥10,022 (up 2.9%) due to increased merchandise revenues per guest.
Hotel Business Segment
Revenues in the Hotel Business Segment declined 2.7% year on year, to ¥44.0
billion. This was due to suspending operations for 20 days owing to the
impact of the Great East Japan Earthquake.

Liabilities
Total liabilities as of March 31, 2011 were ¥216.9 billion (down 12.8%).
Total current liabilities declined to ¥107.0 billion (down 12.5%) due to
various factors, including the redemption of the Unsecured Straight Bonds
8th series (¥20.0 billion) in March 2011.
Total non-current liabilities dropped to ¥109.9 billion (down 13.0%) due to
a decrease in long-term debt, among other factors.
As of March 31, 2011, interest-bearing debt totaled ¥142.9 billion (down
17.5%). The debt-to-equity ratio improved to 0.40 times from 0.47 times a
year earlier.
Net Assets
Total net assets as of March 31, 2011 dropped to ¥357.8 billion (down 2.4%)
due to various factors, including a new repurchase of 3.0 million shares of
treasury stock (3.3% of the total number of shares issued and outstanding) in
March 2011, despite an increase in net income. Stockholders’ equity ratio
stood at 62.3% (up 2.7 points).
Cash Flows
Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2011 totaled ¥35.4 billion, down
¥11.8 billion year on year.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased ¥2.2 billion year on year,
to ¥74.3 billion, due to factors that included a decrease in income tax
payments, in addition to a rise in net cash provided by operating activities.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities decreased ¥2.5 billion, to ¥25.2 billion,
due to factors that included an increase in acquisition of property and
addition to investment securities, despite a decrease in payments into time
deposits included in other current assets.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities increased ¥7.9 billion, to ¥61.0 billion,
due to factors that included an increase in repayment of long-term debt and
an increase in dividends paid, despite a decrease in repayment of short-term
loans payable.
Capital Expenditures and Depreciation and Amortization, Aggregate
Capital expenditures were ¥27.9 billion (up 43.7%).
This was primarily due to increased investments in new attractions such
as “Mickey’s PhilharMagic” and “Toy Story Mania!”
Depreciation and amortization, aggregate totaled ¥40.0 billion (down
14.4%). This is primarily due to the reductions in depreciation and amortiza-
tion related to the initial investment in Tokyo DisneySea.
Free Cash Flow
Free cash flow totaled ¥35.0 billion (down 33.6%). This was primarily the
result of increased capital expenditures and decreased net income as a
result of the disaster.
Funding and Bond Ratings
The OLC Group’s primary source of liquidity is cash generated in day-to-day
operating activities. In addition, the OLC Group will work to increase free
cash flow under the 2013 medium-term plan. The OLC Group’s policy is to
allocate free cash flow to direct stockholder returns while reducing interest-
bearing debt and enhancing business development in order to secure
surplus capital to fund new growth.
As of March 31, 2011, the OLC Group’s long-term debt was rated AA by
Japan Credit Rating Agency, Ltd. (JCR) and AA- by Rating and Investment
Information Inc. (R&I).
In addition, the OLC Group also manages liquidity by maintaining
commitment lines with strong financial institutions in Japan and overseas to
obtain access to low-cost liquidity to respond to risks that may arise.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Operations
(3) Cash Flows
Although we had suspended operations of our facilities in light of external
factors exemplified by the power shortages consequent to the Great East Japan
Earthquake, we reopened Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea on April 15
and April 28, respectively, while pursuing stringent power-saving efforts. During
the coming summer, we are planning to operate the two theme parks based on
the same time schedule as in past years, working within the government’s
power-saving framework. Further, as a measure for coping with the power
shortages, plans are underway to install additional privately owned generators
by August to provide a portion of the electricity used by our theme parks.
We do not present a forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2012 in this
material, given the difficulties in creating a reasonable forecast at this point in
time. We will closely examine the trends of external factors such as the power
supply/demand situation as well as their impact on financial results and will
publicly announce our forecast of results as soon as it is ready for disclosure.
Forecast of Results for the Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 20122
2013 Medium-Term Plan
(Fiscal year ending March 31, 2012 to fiscal year ending
March 31, 2014)
During the last four fiscal years the OLC Group implemented the 2010
medium-term plan, under which it has made consistent progress in
strengthening the foundation of Tokyo Disney Resort. This fiscal year, we have
launched the 2013 medium-term plan, which covers the period between the
fiscal year ending March 31, 2012 and the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014.
We will continue to innovate and reinvent ourselves in order to consistently
create new value while at the same time responding to expected future
changes in the surrounding environment, such as shifting demographics.
OLC has formulated the following two fundamental policies for the new
medium-term plan: “Sustainable Growth of the Core Business (Tokyo Disney
Resort)” and “Reinforcement of the Foundation for Long-Term Sustainable
Growth.” Of the free cash flow consistently generated from the sustainable
growth of the core business, we will allocate a high level to stockholder
returns and preparations for new growth, among other areas.
The management objective in the next medium-term plan is to “generate
corporate value that will enable sustainable growth over the long term” and
a numerical target has been set at “around the ¥120.0 billion level of
aggregated free cash flow to be generated over three years.” Having come
through a period of priority investment that included large-scale investment
projects such as Tokyo DisneySea and Disney hotels, in the fiscal year ended
March 31, 2009, OLC entered a period in which free cash flow has been
generated in a steady stream.

(4) The Impact of the Great East Japan Earthquake
The buildings and facilities at Tokyo Disney Resort were spared serious damage
thanks to the ground improvement techniques we adopted at the time of
construction as a preventative measure against liquefaction. There were no
human casualties or injuries caused by the disaster among our guests or
employees. Although liquefaction phenomenon was observed in one portion
of Tokyo Disneyland’s flat parking area, we promptly repaired the damage.
Immediately after the earthquake, an Earthquake Response Coordination
Task Force was set up, headed by the president, to manage the crises. The
task force promptly undertook various measures in accordance with the
Tokyo Disney Resort Earthquake Response Plan created by OLC. Under the
plan, we have made a point of implementing emergency drills and training
for our employees at each Tokyo Disney Resort facility and maintaining a
substantial store of food and beverages for emergency purposes. This helped
us deal with the crises effectively.
In the subsequent recovery phase, we pursued efforts to resume operation
of our theme parks and other facilities at Tokyo Disney Resort under the
leadership of the Earthquake Response Coordination Task Force. Having
resumed operations, we are now striving to save electricity in response to
power shortages by reducing lighting and operation of water fountains
within the theme parks and back areas, as well as air conditioning. Further,
plans are underway to install additional privately owned generators by
August to provide a portion of the electricity used by our theme parks.
In response to the recent disaster, OLC will renew its efforts to identify
potential risks that were previously inconceivable and establish preventive
and responsive measures against them while aiming to achieve a higher
level of disaster resistance and safety for our facilities. We also intend to
continue providing our employees with training and guidance, as we have in
the past, to empower them to offer high-quality services even in the event of
an emergency.
OLC sets aside cash reserves, which is earmarked to serve as working
capital if needed in the event of a temporary decline in revenues. In addition,
we have concluded a commitment line agreement with our banks, a contract
under which the banks promise to provide financing of ¥30.0 billion.

While net income was down year on year due to the effects of the Great East
Japan Earthquake, the Company will continue to adhere to its policy of
providing stable stockholder returns. According, it will issue year-end cash
dividend payments of ¥50 per share, for a total of ¥100 per share in the fiscal
year under review, the same as in the previous fiscal year. This will make for a
consolidated dividend payout ratio of 37.7%.
Going forward, we will strive to maintain stable dividends, while
considering external factors. However, we will not present a forecast for the
fiscal year ending March 31, 2012 in this material, given the difficulties in
creating a reasonable forecast at this point in time.
In the year under review, we repurchased ¥21.1 billion worth of treasury stock
in March 2011. Looking ahead, we will continue to consider repurchases of
treasury stock as necessary.
In the year under review ROE was 6.3%. Moreover, the Company aims to
increase ROE to 8.0% or higher at the earliest date possible.
(1) Dividends (2) Share Repurchases
Issues that could exert a material effect on the results, financial position, stock
price and other aspects of the OLC Group include, but are not limited to, the
following. Management believes that these are among the issues that could
significantly affect the decisions of investors.
Please note that forward-looking statements are based on judgments
made by the OLC Group as of June 29, 2011.
(1) Risks Related to Weakening of the Tokyo Disney Resort Brand
n Quality of Tangibles (Facilities, Services, etc.)
The OLC Group’s principal business, Tokyo Disney Resort, maintains guest
satisfaction at a high level by constantly creating new experience value for
guests through such means as introducing new facilities. The OLC Group will
work to raise the overall appeal of Tokyo Disney Resort by raising the quality
of its facilities and services. However, lower guest satisfaction due to factors
including an inability to properly time investments as a result of unforeseen
circumstances could damage the Group brand.
n Quality of Intangibles (Cast Hospitality, etc.)
The OLC Group’s principal business, Tokyo Disney Resort, is supported by
numerous cast members. The hospitality of cast members creates strong
feelings of satisfaction among guests. Going forward, the OLC Group will
educate cast members and create a work environment that gives cast
members a sense of pride and joy in their work. However, lower guest satis-
faction due to factors including a shortage of workers as a result of unfore-
seen circumstances could damage the Group brand.
(2) Risks Related to Operations
n Product Deficiencies and Problems
Incidents, including attraction incidents, sale of defective merchandise or
product tampering, involving the products and services of Tokyo Disney
Resort, including attractions, products and foods, could entail serious harm
to the guests who are customers, and could result in material costs from
factors including decreased trust in the Group’s priority on safety, damage to
the Group brand and lawsuits.
n Regulatory Violations
The OLC Group emphasizes compliance in operating its businesses and
conducting related transactions including the procurement of products and
materials. We maintain systems that promote compliance and provide
ongoing education to managers. These efforts notwithstanding, failure
among managers to prevent major regulatory violations or incidents could
result in the cessation of part or all operations due to government actions,
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Operations
Basic Policy on Distribution of Profit and Dividends4
Business Risks5
reduced trust in the OLC Group, damage to the Group brand or other
negative consequences including lawsuits involving large expenses.
n Information Security
The OLC Group takes full precautions in its business activities to prevent
avoidable leaks of the personal information it maintains on guests and the
proprietary information it maintains concerning business operations. These
precautions include strengthening the security of internal networks and
limiting access to information. However, should the Company’s database be
hacked, or were information within the database to be misused, leaked or
altered following unforeseen circumstances, it could result in reduced trust in
the OLC Group, damage to the Group brand or other negative consequences
including lawsuits involving large expenses.
These precautionary measures include strengthening surveillance systems
for internal networks and limiting access to information. However, unforesee-
able or unexpected instances such as hacking of internal information, misuse
of internal databases, leaks or falsification could lead to a decrease in trust in
the OLC Group, damage to the Group brand or other negative consequences
including lawsuits involving large expenses that could affect the perfor-
mance of the OLC Group.
(3) Risks Related to the External Environment
n Weather
In the OLC Group’s principal business, Tokyo Disney Resort, the number of
guests that visit the theme parks is easily influenced by weather conditions
such as climate and temperature. Consequently, an extended period of
inclement weather could cause the number of guests to decrease.
n Natural Disasters
The OLC Group’s business infrastructure is concentrated in the Maihama area,
and a major earthquake, fire, flood or other disaster there could lead to
adverse effects. Although the Group has given sufficient consideration to
disaster resistance at all Tokyo Disney Resort facilities, there is a possibility
that in the event of a disaster the damage caused to facilities and public
transportation and the likely drop in consumer confidence would lead to a
temporary decrease in the number of guests.
n Terrorism, Infectious Diseases or Similar Incidents
The OLC Group has numerous facilities where guests are present, and places
the highest priority on ensuring safety at each of them. However, in the event
of a terrorist attack or similar incident at a large-scale consumer-oriented
facility in Japan or overseas, or in the event of an outbreak of an infectious
disease for which no treatment is available, consumer confidence would
presumably decline. This would likely result in a temporary decrease in the
number of guests.
n Changes in the Economy
The results of the OLC Group’s principal business, Tokyo Disney Resort, have
been stable in the past even when economic conditions were unfavorable in
Japan. We therefore believe that Tokyo Disney Resort is not greatly affected
by the state of the economy. However, factors such as an unprecedented
recession could result in a temporary decrease in the number of guests.
n Regulatory Issues
The OLC Group is subject to various regulatory systems including safety
standards for attractions, quality standards for products and other items
provided to guests, environmental standards, accounting standards and tax
laws. Of note, the OLC Group maintains its own standards for safety and
quality that exceed those mandated by law. In the other areas, the OLC
Group promotes full compliance. However, the OLC Group would necessarily
have to comply with newly introduced or revised laws and regulations,
which could temporarily constrain some or all operations.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
A BASIS OF PRESENTING CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTSThe accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the provisions set forth in the Japanese Financial Instru-
ments and Exchange Law and its related accounting regulations, and in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Japan
(“Japanese GAAP”), which are different in certain respects as to application
and disclosure requirements from the International Financial Reporting
Standards.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been restruc-
tured and translated into English (with some expanded descriptions) from
the consolidated financial statements of Oriental Land Co., Ltd. (“the
Company”) prepared in accordance with Japanese GAAP and filed with the
appropriate Local Finance Bureau of the Ministry of Finance as required by
the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law. Some supplementary informa-
tion included in the statutory Japanese language consolidated financial
statements, but not required for fair presentation, is not presented in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements.
The translation of the Japanese yen amounts into U.S. dollars is included
solely for the convenience of readers outside Japan, using the prevailing
exchange rate at March 31, 2011, which was ¥83.15 to U.S. $1. The conve-
nience translations should not be construed as representations that the
Japanese yen amounts have been, could have been, or could in the future
be, converted into U.S. dollars at this or any other rate of exchange.
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2010 and 2009 consoli-
dated financial statements to conform to the classifications used in 2011.
B PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATIONThe consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and all of its subsidiaries (“the Companies”). Material inter-company balances,
transactions and profits have been eliminated in consolidation. In the elimi-
nation of investments in subsidiaries, the assets and liabilities of the subsid-
iaries, including the portion attributable to minority stockholders, are
evaluated using the fair value at the time the Company acquired control of
the respective subsidiaries. Consolidation goodwill, the excess of acquisition
cost over net assets, is amortized mainly over a period of 20 years on a
straight-line basis. The number of consolidated subsidiaries was 13, 14 and 18
in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Investments in 20-50%-owned affiliates are accounted for by the equity
method and are included in investment securities in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets. The number of companies accounted for under
the equity method was 3, 3 and 4 in 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
C FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONReceivables and payables denominated in foreign currencies are translated
into Japanese yen at the exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet
date. Gains and losses resulting from the translation are charged to income.
D CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTSIn preparing the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash on hand, readily
available deposits and short-term highly liquid investments with negligible
risk of changes in value and maturities not exceeding three months at the
time of purchase are considered to be cash and cash equivalents.
E MARKETABLE SECURITIES AND INVESTMENT SECURITIESMarketable securities and investment securities are classified as (a) securities
held for trading purposes (hereafter, “trading securities”), (b) debt securities
intended to be held to maturity (hereafter, “held-to-maturity-debt securi-
ties”), (c) equity securities issued by subsidiaries and affiliate companies, or (d)
all other securities that are not classified in any of the above categories
(hereafter, “available-for-sale securities”). The Companies do not have trading
securities and held-to-maturity-debt securities.
Available-for-sale securities with available fair market value are stated at
fair market value as of the balance sheet date. Unrealized gains or losses on
these securities are reported, net of applicable income taxes, as a separate
component of net assets. Realized gains and losses on sales of such securities
are computed using the moving-average method. Available-for-sale securi-
ties without fair market value are stated at the moving-average cost.
If the market value of available-for-sale securities declines significantly,
such securities are restated at fair market value and the difference between
fair market value and the carrying amount is recognized as loss in the period
of the decline. For the available-for-sale securities without fair market value, if
the net asset value declines significantly, such securities are restated to net
asset value with the corresponding losses recognized in the period of
decline. In these cases, such fair market value or the net asset value will be
the carrying amount of the securities at the beginning of the next year.
F INVENTORIESConsumer products, materials for food, beverages and supplies are primarily
stated at the lower of cost or market using the moving-average method.
(Change in accounting policy)
Effective from the year ended March 31, 2009, the Companies adopted the
new accounting standard for Measurement of Inventories (Statement No.9
issued by the Accounting Standards Board of Japan “ASBJ” on July 5, 2006).
This standard requires that inventories held for sale in the ordinary course
of business be measured at the lower of cost or net selling value, which is
defined as the selling price less additional estimated manufacturing costs
and estimated direct selling expenses. The replacement cost may be used in
place of the net selling value, if appropriate.
As a result, inventories as of March 31, 2009 decreased by ¥53 million and
operating income and income before income taxes decreased by the same
amount, respectively.
Effective from the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, the Companies
changed the main accounting policy for determining cost of inventory
valuation of consumer products at stores, from the retail method to the
moving-average method. The purpose is to have more accurate cost of
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING POLICIES inventory and calculation of profits and losses for each financial period.
As a result, operating income and income before income taxes increased by
¥12 million, respectively.
G THEME PARKS, RESORTS AND OTHER PROPERTYDepreciation on property of Tokyo Disneyland and others are computed
primarily using the declining-balance method. Depreciation on property of
Tokyo DisneySea and others and buildings acquired after April 1, 1998 is
computed using the straight-line method.
Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to income as incurred.
Major replacements and betterments are capitalized. When property is
retired or otherwise disposed of, the property and accumulated depreciation
accounts related to it are relieved of the applicable amounts and any differ-
ences are included in maintenance costs for theme parks, resorts and other
property, except for the extraordinary nature of disposal of property which is
included in other expenses.
(Additional information)
Following the revisions to the corporation tax law in fiscal 2008, the Compa-
nies changed the useful life of machinery by the revised corporation tax law
from the year ended March 31, 2009.
As a result, for the year ended March 31, 2009, operating income and
income before income taxes decreased by ¥49 million, respectively.
H SOFTWAREAmortization of the software for internal use included in other intangible
assets is computed by the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives (five years).
I DEVELOPMENT EXPENSESExpenses relating to development activities are charged to income
as incurred.
J PROVISION FOR RETIREMENT BENEFITSThe Companies provide allowances for employees’ severance and retirement
benefits at the balance sheet date based on the estimated amounts of
projected benefit obligation and the fair value of the plan assets at that date.
The net transition obligation incurred effective April 1, 2000 due to the
adoption of new accounting standards (¥4,573 million) has been recognized
in expenses in equal amounts over 15 years. Unrecognized actuarial net gains
or losses are amortized mainly over 15 years on a straight-line basis
commencing from the succeeding period, and unrecognized prior service
cost is amortized mainly over 15 years on a straight-line basis.
The Company and certain consolidated subsidiaries have defined the
cash-balance type of defined benefit pension plans.
(Change in accounting policy)
Effective from the year ended March 31, 2010, the Companies adopted the
“Partial Amendments to Accounting Standard for Retirement Benefits (Part
3)” (Statement No. 19 issued by the ASBJ on July 31, 2008).
However, in accordance with this standard, if the difference between the
discount rate currently in use and the interest rates of applicable bonds at the
end of the fiscal year is within a certain range, it is not necessary to adjust the
discount rate.
Therefore, in the year ended March 31, 2010, the discount rate remained
unchanged and there was no impact on operating income and income
before income taxes after the adoption of this standard.
K INCOME TAXESThe provision for income taxes is computed based on the pretax income
included in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The asset and liability
approach is used to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the
expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the
carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and
the amounts used for income tax purposes.
L PER SHARE DATADividends per share shown in the Consolidated Statements of Income have
been presented on an accrual basis and include, in each fiscal period,
dividends approved after each balance sheet date, but applicable to the
fiscal period then ended. Net income per share is based on the weighted
average number of shares of common stock.
M USE OF ESTIMATESIn preparing financial statements, generally accepted accounting principles
require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabil-
ities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
N LEASESEffective from the year ended March 31, 2009, the Companies adopted the
new accounting standard for Lease Transactions(Statement No.13 issued by
the ASBJ on March 30, 2007), which revised the accounting standard for lease
transactions issued on June 17, 1993.
Prior to April 1, 2008, finance leases that deem to transfer ownership of the
leased property to the lessee are to be capitalized, however, other finance
leases are permitted to be accounted for as operating lease transactions if
certain “as if capitalized” information is disclosed in the note to the lessee’s
financial statements.
The revised accounting standard requires that all finance lease transac-
tions should be capitalized.
The effect on this change of accounting standard was immaterial.

9. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
A POLICIES ON THE USE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTSThe Companies raise the funds needed to implement capital investment
plans through loans from banks and other institutions and by issuing corpo-
rate bonds. The Companies limit their investment of temporary surpluses to
deposits and highly liquid financial assets such as bank deposits.
The Companies employ derivative financial instruments only as needed to
limit the scope of actual settlement and does not undertake speculative
transactions for the purpose of generating trading profits.
B FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT CONTENT AND RISKSTrade-notes and accounts receivable, involve credit risk on the part of
customers and business partners.
Investment securities, which are mainly equity securities, involve market risk.
Currency swap contracts and interest rate swap contracts are used to
mitigate risks arising from foreign currency rate fluctuations on transactions
denominated in foreign currencies and from interest rate fluctuations on
interest payment related to loans and ponds, respectively.
The Companies evaluate hedge effectiveness by comparing the cumula-
tive changes in cash flows from or the changes in fair value of hedged items
to the corresponding changes in the hedging derivative instruments.
C FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT RISK MANAGEMENT (a) Management of credit risk (the risk that a business partner will default on
its transactional obligations)
The Companies employ accounts receivable management regulations to
reduce the risks related to trade-notes and accounts receivable, which are
collected within one year.
As the Companies’ transaction partners on derivative financial instruments
are limited to prominent international financial institutions, credit risk related
to breach of contract is judged to be immaterial.
(b) Management of market risk (the risk of foreign exchange and interest
rate fluctuations)
The Companies have entered into currency swap contracts in order to
hedge resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates on
transactions denominated in foreign currencies. The Companies have also
entered into interest rate swap contracts in order to mitigate exposures
resulting from interest rate fluctuations on interest payments related to
loans and bonds.
The fair value of investment securities in listed companies is determined
on a quarterly basis.
The Companies have formulated operational handling procedures
pertaining to the execution and management of derivative financial trans-
actions. Departments handling such transactions are managed closely, and
a system is in place to ensure an effective internal control function.
D SUPPLEMENTARY EXPLANATION REGARDING THE FAIR
VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTSWith regard to the fair value of financial instruments, in addition to basing
fair value on market value, the fair value of financial instruments that have
no available market value is determined by using a rational method of calcu-
lation. However, as variables are inherent in these value calculations, the
resulting values may differ if different assumptions are used. Also, market
risk related to derivative financial instruments is not included within the
contract amounts of derivative financial instruments.
E MATTERS RELATED TO THE FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL
INSTRUMENTS(Year ended March 31, 2011)
The following table summarizes book value, fair value and difference on
financial instruments excluding financial instruments without fair value, as
of March 31, 2011:
Method of calculating the fair value of financial instruments and matters related to derivativesAssets(1) Cash and deposits, (2) marketable securities, and (3) notes and accounts receivable As these instruments are settled within a short term and their fair values and book values are nearly identical, their book values are assumed as their fair values.(4) Investment securities The fair values of equity securities are determined by their prices on stock exchanges.(5) Long-term loans receivable For long-term loans receivable, fair value is determined by discounting the total amount of principal and interest with the assumed interest rate on new borrowings of the same type.Liabilities(1) Notes and accounts payable–trade, (2) short-term loans payable, and (3) current portion of long-term loans payable As these instruments are settled within a short term and their fair values and book values are nearly identical, their book values are assumed as their fair values.(4) Bonds payables The fair value of corporate bonds is determined based on market prices.(5) Long-term loans payable For long-term loans payable, fair value is determined by discounting the total amount of principal and interest with the assumed interest rate on new loans of the same type. However, for loans
with floating interest rates that do not employ interest rate swaps, as interest rates are revised in set increments as conditions dictate and their fair values and book values are nearly identical, the book values are assumed as their fair values.

8. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Net assets comprise three subsections, which are shareholders’ equity,
accumulated other comprehensive income, and minority interests.
Under Japanese laws and regulations, the entire amount paid for new
shares is required to be designated as common stock. However, a company
may, by a resolution of the board of directors, designate an amount not
exceeding one-half of the price of the new shares as additional paid-in
capital which is included in capital surplus.
In cases where dividend distribution of surplus is made, the lesser of an
amount equal to 10% of the dividend or the excess, if any, of 25% of common
stock over the total of additional paid-in capital and legal reserve must be set
aside as additional paid-in capital or legal reserve. Legal reserve is included
in retained earnings in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Both appropriations of legal reserve and additional paid-in capital used to
eliminate or reduce a deficit generally require a resolution of the stock-
holders’ meeting.
Additional paid-in capital and legal reserve may not be distributed as
dividends .All additional paid-in capital and legal reserve may be transferred
to other capital surplus and retained earnings, respectively, which are poten-
tially available for dividends.
The maximum amount that the Company can distribute as dividends is
calculated based on the non-consolidated financial statements of the
Company in accordance with Japanese laws and regulations.
At the annual stockholders’ meeting held on June 29, 2011, the stock-
holders resolved to pay cash dividends amounting to ¥4,171 million (US$
50,162 thousand). Such appropriations have not been accrued in the
consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2011. Such appropriations
will be recognized in the period when they are resolved.

others in connection with grouping assets of theaters, restaurants, and retail stores that had consecutive losses from operating activities. For theaters, the recov-
erable amount is measured at the net realizable value based on appraised value. For theater assets that are difficult to sell or use for other applications, the
recoverable amount is estimated as ¥0. For restaurants, the recoverable amount of the property was determined based on value in use calculated under the 4%
discount rate of future cash flows. As the Company has decided to discontinue its retail business by March 31, 2012, it derecognized full amount of non-current
assets related to the retail business and presented it as an impairment loss.
