***Reference Materials: The Board of Directors' position on Agendum 8 (Amendment of the articles of incorporation of KB Financial Group) and Agendum 9 (Appointment of a non-executive director), proposed by the Labor Union of Kookmin Bank, a chapter of the Korean Financial Industry Union, and others***

In order to secure a quorum for the resolutions of the shareholders' meeting, KB Financial Group (the "Group") encourages shareholders to exercise their voting rights via proxy. The Group requests that shareholders delegate their voting rights to the Group to ensure a smooth and successful shareholders' meeting.

The Board of Directors of the Group (the "Board") has reviewed the proposals made by the Labor Union of Kookmin Bank, a chapter of the Korean Financial Industry Union, and others (the "Proponent") in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, and decided to adopt them as agenda items (Agendum 8 and Agendum 9) for the Group's upcoming annual general meeting of shareholders. The legality of such proposals aside, however, the Board has concluded that both of these proposals would not be in the best interest of the Group and its shareholders. **As such, the Board recommends that shareholders vote against Agendum 8 and Agendum 9** mainly based on the reasons described below.

**<u>Agendum 8. Amendment of the articles of incorporation of KB Financial Group</u>**

The Group has established and operates an independent CEO Nominating Committee that is comprised only of non-executive directors of the Group, through which the Group regularly manages its CEO nominees by categorizing them into internal and external nominees. The Group conducts its CEO nominating procedure in a transparent and fair manner, in accordance with its management succession regulations.

The Board believes that, because the proposal does not set forth clear requirements for positions previously held by the nominees and is ambiguous in its use of the term "political party," it exceeds the scope of employment restrictions under the Public Service Ethics Act. As such, the Board believes that the proposal may excessively restrict the Group from securing a wide range of talents. For this reason, the Board opposes the shareholder proposal to amend Article 40 of the articles of incorporation of the Group.

**<u>Agendum 9. Appointment of a non-executive director</u>**

The Group has established and operates an independent Non-Executive Director Nominating Committee that is comprised only of non-executive directors of the Group, through which the Group regularly manages its pool of non-executive director nominees. The Group conducts a fair and rigorous verification of its non-executive director candidates before nominating a candidate. The Group regularly receives recommendations for non-executive director candidates from external advisory institutes and shareholders, and the Non-Executive Director Nominating Committee conducts an overall assessment of the candidates before finally nominating a candidate. By selecting its candidates through such a rigorous process, the Board has been able to contribute to the sustainable growth of the Group, the improvement of the Group's value and the protection of the interests of shareholders and other stakeholders.

------

##### [**Table of Contents**](#toc)
As such, the Board believes that it would be in the Group's interest for all candidates to be evaluated through this rigorous verification process, which was established to improve the Board's expertise and diversity. For this reason, the Board stands in opposition to any nomination made outside this process.

**Based on the above reasons, the Board recommends that shareholders vote against Agendum 8 and Agendum 9 as it believes that such proposals would not be in their best interest.**
