Reasons

The grounds of appeal are examined (to the extent of supplement in case of supplemental appellate briefs not timely filed).

1. The act performed by the representative director of a stock company within the scope of his/her representative authority shall be effective once as an act of the company even though the representative director abused his/her authority for the purpose of pursuing his/her own interest or a third party, regardless of the company's profit. However, if the other party to the act knew or could have known the representative director's intention, the act shall be null and void against the company (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decisions 97Da18059, Aug. 29, 197; 2005Da3649, Jul. 28, 2005).

The judgment of the court below did not go beyond the bounds of free evaluation of evidence
