Guide on How to Exercise Voting Rights of Beneficial Owners


As you may know, a voting right is your own right and important method to reflect your opinion at the shareholders` meeting. However, under the circumstances where the shares issued by our company are held by very many shareholders, it may be difficult to constitute a quorum at the shareholders` meeting this time. Therefore, please refer to the following on how to exercise your voting right as a beneficial owner (i.e., as a shareholder holding a share or shares of our company in an account with a stock brokerage firm) and your cooperation would be appreciated.

□ General Types of How to Exercise Voting Rights
A shareholder may be present at the shareholders` meeting and exercise his/her voting right at the shareholders` meeting.
A shareholder may have a third party exercise his/her voting right as his/her agent (which may include a family member of the relevant shareholder).

□ Exercise of Voting Rights by the Korea Securities Depository
In accordance with Section 174(6)(v) of the Securities and Exchange Act of Korea, our company will ask the Korea Securities Depository to, on any issues with respect to which no opinion is expressed in the Opinion Notice attached below, exercise voting rights on behalf of such beneficial owners of shares of our company as fail to express their opinion to the Korea Securities Depository by the Opinion Notice in the form attached below. In such case, the Korea Securities Depository may, pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Act of Korea, conduct shadow voting based on the ratio between the agreement and disagreement to each issue as a result of the exercise of voting rights by all shareholders present at the shareholders` meeting except those represented by the Korea Securities Depository.

□ Advice on Delivery of Opinion Notice
It would be appreciated if a beneficial owner of a share or shares of our company would execute and send the Opinion Notice attached below for the purpose of the Korea Securities Depository`s computation of the number of shares available for its exercise of voting rights, which shares will not include any shares with respect to which shareholder`s opinion is expressed in the Opinion Notice attached below.

Delivery of the Opinion Notice to the following address is not a must. There will be no disadvantage or impediment to the exercise of any of your rights as a shareholder of our company, even though you do not send the Opinion Notice to the following address:
(Address for Opinion Notice to Be Sent to) Security Management Division, Korea Securities Depository, 34-6 Yoido-Dong, Youngdeungpo-Ku, 150-884, Seoul, Korea
(Deadline for Delivery of Opinion Notice) March 8, 2003 (※ 5 days before the date of the meeting)
