(a) Each of the material Tax Returns required to be filed by or on behalf of the Company with any Governmental Body with respect to any taxable period ending on or before the Closing (the Company Returns): (i) has been or will be filed on or before the applicable due date (including any extensions of such due date); and (ii) has been, or will be when filed, prepared in all material respects in compliance with all applicable Legal Requirements. All amounts shown on the Company Returns to be due, and all other Taxes that are due, on or before the Closing have been or will be paid on or before the Closing (except for those Taxes being contested in good faith by the Company, which either: (A) are reserved against on the Company Balance Sheet; or (B) are immaterial in amount). (b) The Company Balance Sheet accurately reflects all liabilities for Taxes with respect to all periods through the date of this Agreement in accordance with Korean GAAP, except for liabilities for Taxes incurred since the Company Balance Sheet Date in the operation of the business of the Company. The Company will establish, prior to the Closing, in the ordinary course of business and consistent with its past practices, reserves adequate for the payment of all Taxes for the period from the Company Balance Sheet Date through the Closing.

No extension or waiver of the limitation period applicable to any of the Company Returns has been granted (by the Company or any other Person), and no such extension or waiver has been requested from the Company. (d) No claim or Legal Proceeding is pending or, to the Knowledge of the Company, has been threatened against or with respect to the Company in respect of Taxes in an amount greater than KRW 100,000,000, or, when added to all such other claims or Legal Proceedings, greater than KRW 500,000,000.

(e) No written notice has ever been delivered by any Governmental Body to the Company in a jurisdiction where the Company does not file a Tax Return that claims that the Company is or may be subject to taxation by that jurisdiction which has resulted or would reasonably be expected to result in an obligation to pay Taxes in an amount greater than KRW 100,000,000. (f) There are no Contracts relating to allocating or sharing of Taxes to which the Company is a party. The Company is not: (i) liable for Taxes of any other Person pursuant to any Contract or any Legal Requirement; (ii) currently under any contractual obligation to indemnify any Person with respect to any amounts of such Persons Taxes (except for customary agreements to indemnify lenders or security holders in respect of Taxes); or (iii) a party to any Contract providing for payments by the Company with respect to any amount of Taxes of any other Person. (g) The Company has maintained necessary records to enable it to comply in all material respects with its obligations under any applicable Legal Requirement relating to Taxes to: (i) prepare and submit any material information, notices, computations, returns and payments; and (ii) prepare any accounts.
