※ In the case of Subparagraph 1, even if a limit is established, specifying excessively high ratios or large amounts may infringe upon the preemptive rights of shareholders to new shares.

(Note Newly Inserted on Feb 10, 2000., Amended on Dec 20, 2007., Dec 27, 2013) ※ If the Company prescribes a limit in Subparagraphs 1 and 2 of this Paragraph, the total sum of par values of bonds which are already issued before the amendment due to falling under any of each Subparagraph shall be deducted from the limits that are set after the amendment.

their market price, the Company can adjust the conversion price of convertible bonds to less than 70/100 of their original conversion price at the time of issuance thereof, the Company must include an additional provision in the articles of incorporation, as follows: (Article 5-23 of the Regulation on Securities Issuance and Disclosure.) 1) If such adjustment is to be allowed

※ In the case specified in Subparagraph 1, even if limits are set, specifying excessively high percentages or large amounts could potentially infringe on the shareholders' preemptive rights to new shares. Therefore, it is recommended that when setting limits, the total par value of the bonds should be approximately equivalent to no more than 20% of the total number of issued shares, converted into monetary terms.

(Note Newly Inserted on Feb 10, 2000, Amended on Dec 20, 2007, and Dec 27, 2013) ※ When setting limits under Subparagraphs 1 and 2, the total par value of bonds already issued due to reasons before the amendment should be deducted from the limits set after the amendment.

determined by the Board of Directors, to the extent of not exceeding the total sum of par values of such bonds.

(Amended on December 27, 2013) (4) The shares to be issued as a result of the exercise of such preemptive rights to new shares hereunder shall be [*] shares and the applicable price thereof shall be determined by the Board of Directors at the time of issuance thereof at an amount equal to or higher than the par value of such new shares.

※ If the Company intends to issue various class of shares through the exercise of such preemptive rights to new shares, the Company may do so by referring to the above example of convertible bonds.
