In addition, in order to enhance the credit rating of the bill of this case, the court below affirmed the court below's determination that the above non-party 1's issuance or endorsement of a promissory note, or preparation of a document belonging to the company's debt burden or loan of the same name and seal as that of the bill of this case, and the same name and seal as that of the bill of this case, and the letter of payment guarantee (Evidence A No. 4) and the letter of payment are delivered to the plaintiff even though the above non-party 2's insurance policy and the letter of delegation for the refund of insurance money are strictly regulated so that the defendant company may not perform its duty such as borrowing money, etc. without the prior approval of the Minister of Finance and Economy, except for the difference between the financial institution and the financial institution, and that the business office is not an independent accounting ability as a store dealing with mechanical and auxiliary affairs under the direction and supervision of the head office, and it cannot be viewed that the above non-party 1's preliminary endorsement and debt guarantee act is not closely related to the defendant's duty of execution.
