Article 399-6Enjoinment of Acts of Directors by Audit and Supervisory Committee
第三百九十九条の六（監査等委員による取締役の行為の差止め）
If a director engages or is likely to engage in an act outside the scope of the purpose of a company with audit and supervisory committee, or other acts in violation of laws and regulations or the articles of incorporation, if such an act is likely to cause substantial detriment to the company with audit and supervisory committee, audit and supervisory committee members may demand that the director cease that act.
監査等委員は、取締役が監査等委員会設置会社の目的の範囲外の行為その他法令若しくは定款に違反する行為をし、又はこれらの行為をするおそれがある場合において、当該行為によって当該監査等委員会設置会社に著しい損害が生ずるおそれがあるときは、当該取締役に対し、当該行為をやめることを請求することができる。
In the cases provided for in the preceding paragraph, if the court orders a director under the preceding paragraph to cease that act by a provisional disposition, the court is not to require the provision of security.

articles of incorporation
定款
A company's own basic rules, written by its founders when it is formed: at least its purpose, its trade name, where its head office is, the value of the property contributed at incorporation and who the founders are (Companies Act, Article 27). A stock company's must be certified by a notary before it takes effect (Article 30, paragraph (1)), and can later be changed by a resolution of the shareholders meeting (Article 466). Many rules in the Act apply "unless the articles of incorporation provide otherwise", so a company's articles decide a great deal of how the Act applies to it.

director
取締役
An officer of a stock company, elected by the shareholders meeting (Companies Act, Article 329, paragraph (1)). Every stock company has at least one (Article 326, paragraph (1)). Where there is no board of directors, the directors run the company's business unless the articles of incorporation say otherwise (Article 348, paragraph (1)), and each of them represents it unless the company has chosen representative directors (代表取締役) or others to do that (Article 349, paragraphs (1) and (3)). Where there is a board (取締役会, board of directors), the directors are its members, and the board decides the business and normally chooses the representative directors from among them (Article 362). The term normally runs to the annual shareholders meeting for the last business year ending within two years of election (Article 332, paragraph (1)).
