(Note)


Significant Matters Pertaining to the Preparation of Consolidated Financial
Statements


The consolidated financial statements of NTT have been prepared in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(Accounting Principles Board Opinions, Statements of Financial Accounting
Standards, etc).


Application of New Accounting Standard


    Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations


Effective April 1, 2005, NTT Group adopted the Financial Accounting Standards
Board ("FASB") Interpretation No. 47 ("FIN 47") "Accounting for Conditional
Asset Retirement Obligations - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 143." FIN
47 provides guidance relating to the identification of and financial reporting
for legal obligations to perform an asset retirement activity. The
Interpretation requires recognition of a liability for the fair value of a
conditional asset retirement obligation when incurred if the liability"s fair
value can be reasonably estimated. The adoption of FIN 47 did not have an impact
on the results of operations or the financial position of NTT Group.
