• Item 1 above is calculated
based on the closing price (KRW 45,150) of the Company’s shares on February 12, 2025, which is the day before the resolution by the Board of Directors. The number of shares to be canceled and the cancellation amount may change pursuant to
changes in the Company’s share price.

Directors passed on the current day.
• Details on Item 6 above are included in today’s filing of ‘Decision to Enter into a

• Regarding Item 7, all treasury shares acquired will be canceled after the termination of the trust
contract. However, if the foreign ownership limit (49%) under Article 8 of the Telecommunications Business Act is exhausted at that time, the shares acquired through this resolution will be canceled at the earliest possible time.
