 (v) Any money judgment, writ or similar final process shall be entered or filed against the Company or any of its property or other assets
for more than KRW 100,000,000 and shall remain unvacated, unbonded or unstayed for a period of ninety (90) days. 
  
 (vi) The Company shall default with respect to any indebtedness of the Company, exceeding KRW 100,000,000 in amount, and under the terms
of such indebtedness such default entitles the holder of the indebtedness to declare such indebtedness fully due and payable. 
  
 (vii) Bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation proceedings or other proceedings or relief under any bankruptcy law or any law
for the relief of debtors shall be instituted by or against the Company, and, in the case of any involuntary proceeding or relief under such bankruptcy laws, not stayed or dismissed within forty-five (45) days after the date of commencement thereof.

  
 (viii) The listing or trading of the Common
Stock on the stock market on which it is traded on the Closing Date shall be suspended or terminated for 5 consecutive days or 5 days during a period of 10 consecutive days, excluding in all cases a suspension of all trading on such market, provided
that the Company shall not have been able to cure such trading suspension within 30 days of the notice thereof or list the Common Stock on another market of at least equal stature within 60 days of such notice. 
  
 (ix) The Company shall fail, upon a conversion of all or a
portion of the Convertible Bond into Common Stock, to timely deliver a certificate representing Common Stock to the holder or to timely record on its books that the holder continues to be the holder of any portion of the Convertible Bond that is not
converted. 
  

	5.	Repurchase. 

  
 The Company will have the option, upon a written request to Purchaser to repurchase the Convertible Bond on the 16th day of February, 2006 and 2007. For the avoidance of any doubts, the foregoing option shall not be exercisable during any other days than the
16th days of 

  

 
February, 2006 and 2007. The amount to be paid to Purchaser for the Convertible Bond will be the principal of the Convertible Bond, plus accumulated and
unpaid interest accrued up to the date of such repurchase. If the Company elects to repurchase the Convertible Bond on either of the two dates specified above, the Company shall give Purchaser written notice of such election at least 15 days prior
to such date, and Purchaser shall be entitled to convert all or any portion of the Convertible Bond into Common Stock prior to the date on which the repurchase is scheduled to occur. If within 90 days after any conversion of any portion of the
Convertible Bond into Common Stock that follows Purchaser’s receipt of a notice of election to prepay from the Company, an event occurs that, pursuant to Section 6(c) below results (or, if no portion of the Convertible Bond remains outstanding,
would have resulted) in a decrease in the Conversion Price, the Company shall issue to Purchaser an additional number of shares of Common Stock so that Purchaser will have received the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock upon conversion that
it would have received had the decrease in the Conversion Price taken effect prior to the conversion. 
  

	6.	Conversion. 

  
 (a) Each Convertible Bond shall be convertible, in whole or in part, at the option of the holder thereof at any time or times starting one (1) year after
the Closing Date, at the office of the Company, into such number of fully paid shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing (i) the amount equal to the aggregate original issue price of the Convertible Bond or the portion of the Convertible
Bond to be converted by (ii) the Conversion Price in effect on the date of conversion. The initial Conversion Price of the Convertible Bond shall be the closing price of the Common Stock on the KOSDAQ on the 15th day of February, 2005. 

 
 (b) The Conversion Price shall be appropriately decreased upon any stock
split or stock dividend affecting the Common Stock, and shall be appropriately increased upon any combination of the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a lesser number of shares. 
  
 (c) If at any time after the Closing Date, the Company sells any shares of its Common Stock at a price less than the then
effective Conversion Price, issues any warrant, option or other right to purchase shares of the Common Stock with an exercise price less than the then effective Conversion Price or issues any securities convertible into shares of Common Stock at a
rate reflecting a price for the Common Stock less than the then effective Conversion Price, the Conversion Price shall be reduced to, as applicable, the price at which such shares were sold, the exercise price of such options, warrants or other
rights to purchase or the price on which such conversion rate is based. 
  
 (d) Upon any conversion of all or any portion of the Convertible Bond, the Company shall issue to the holder shares of Common Stock that are freely tradeable by the holder on the market on which the Common Stock is then traded, so that the
holder, if it so elects, may sell any or all of such shares in such market without delay. 
  

	7.	Mechanics of Conversion. 

  
 (a) Before any holder of the Convertible Bond shall be entitled to convert the same into Common Stock pursuant to Section 5 above, it shall give written
notice to the Company at 

  

 
such office that he or she elects to convert the same or a specified portion of the same. A conversion pursuant to Section 5 above shall be deemed to have
been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the delivery of the conversion notice. The person or persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the
record holder or holders of such Common Stock as of such date. 
  
 (b) The Company shall, as soon as practicable after delivery of a conversion notice, issue and deliver to such holder of the Convertible Bond, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which it shall be
entitled and, if only a portion of the Convertible Bond has been converted, shall record on its books that the holder remains the holder of the portion of the Convertible Bond that remains outstanding. 
  

	8.	No Fractional Common Stock. 

  
 The number of whole shares of Common Stock to be issued to the holder of the Convertible Bond upon conversion shall be determined on the basis of the
number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Convertible Bond held by such holder at the time of the conversion. No fractional share of Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of the Convertible Bond. The Company
shall pay, in cash, to the holder of the Convertible Bond, the amount calculated by multiplying such fractional share by the fair market value of one share of Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors. 
  

	9.	Reservation of Common Stock Issuable Upon Conversion. 

  
 The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose of effecting
the conversion of the Convertible Bond, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the conversion of all outstanding Convertible Bond; and if at any time the number of authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of all then outstanding Convertible Bond, in addition to such other remedies available to the holder of such Convertible Bond, the Company will take such corporate action as may be
necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock to such number of shares of Common Stock as shall be sufficient for such purposes, including, without limitation, engaging in best efforts to obtain the requisite stockholder
approval of any necessary amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. 
  

	10.	Termination of Rights Upon Conversion. 

  
 All rights and obligations relating to the Convertible Bond shall terminate immediately upon the conversion of the entire Convertible Bond into Common
Stock.Amendment to Convertible Bond Sale and Purchase Agreement
