Toyota is constantly engaged in upgrading, modernizing and revamping the operations of its manufacturing facilities, based on its assessment of market needs and prospects. Toyota has implemented measures to facilitate flexible responses to fluctuations in demand in each of its production operations throughout the world, such as revising takt time, operating production lines in unison and adjusting days of operation, but it has not closed any plants. In particular, with respect to the truck market in North America, which has experienced severe fluctuations in demand, Toyota temporarily suspended the operation of its truck vehicle and engine production lines for three months, and implemented initiatives to improve future competitiveness, including improvement initiatives and training. In addition, Toyota has introduced a work-sharing system in its plants in the United Kingdom and the United States. As a result, Toyota believes it would require unreasonable effort to track the exact productive capacity and the extent of utilization of each of its manufacturing facilities with a reasonable degree of accuracy.

As of March 31, 2009, property, plant and equipment having a net book value of approximately ¥87,845 million was pledged as collateral securing indebtedness incurred by Toyota Motor Corporation’s consolidated subsidiaries. Toyota believes that there does not exist any material environmental issues that may affect the company’s utilization of its assets.

Toyota is constantly engaged in upgrading, modernizing and revamping the operations of its manufacturing facilities, based on its assessment of market needs and prospects. As market conditions and Toyota’s business objectives evolve, Toyota adjusts its capacity and utilization by opening, closing, expanding or downsizing production facilities accordingly. As a result, Toyota believes it would require unreasonable effort to track the exact productive capacity and the extent of utilization of each of its manufacturing facilities with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Toyota believes that its manufacturing facilities are generally all operating within normal operating capacity and not substantially below capacity.

As of March 31, 2008, property, plant and equipment having a net book value of approximately ¥90,436 million was pledged as collateral securing indebtedness incurred by Toyota Motor Corporation’s consolidated subsidiaries. Toyota believes that there does not exist any material environmental issues that may affect the company’s utilization of its assets.

Toyota considers all its principal manufacturing facilities and other significant properties to be in good condition and adequate to meet the needs of its operations.
