If a representative of a corporation (including an association or foundation with no legal personality prescribed in Article 66, paragraph (1); the same applies hereinafter in this paragraph and the following paragraph) (including a representative or administrator of that association or foundation), or an agent, employee or other worker of a corporation or person, commits a violation under Article 68, paragraph (1) or (3), Article 69 or the preceding Article with regard to the business or property of that corporation or person, in addition to punishing the offender, the fine prescribed in each of those Articles is imposed on that corporation or person.
The period of prescription in the case where a fine is imposed on a corporation or person pursuant to the preceding paragraph for a violation under Article 68, paragraph (1) or (3) is governed by the period of prescription for the offenses under those provisions.
Where paragraph (1) applies to an association or foundation prescribed in that paragraph, its representative or administrator represents that association or foundation in its procedural acts in the lawsuit, and the provisions of laws and regulations on criminal procedure for the case where a corporation is the accused or suspect apply mutatis mutandis.
