B. Contract between BB and the defendant for lease on a deposit basis

○ B entered into a contract on August 10, 2009 with respect to the establishment of the right to lease on a deposit basis (hereinafter referred to as “right to lease on a deposit basis”) by setting the deposit amount of KRW 2.5 billion and the duration of the right to lease on a deposit basis (hereinafter referred to as “right to lease on a deposit basis”) by August 9, 201, and completed the registration of the establishment of the right to lease on a deposit basis on August 11, 2009.

○B transferred the instant chonsegwon to the Defendant on January 6, 2012 (hereinafter referred to as “instant transfer contract”), and on February 21, 2012, the registration of the transfer of the right to lease on a deposit basis as described in Paragraph 2 of the Disposition was completed. The financial status of BB.

At the time of the instant transfer contract, B had a total of 339,901 shares of KRW 2,049,010,000 as listed below, and the instant lease on a deposit basis (right to claim the return of deposit on a deposit basis) with respect to the instant real estate. [Grounds for recognition] Each entry in Gap’s 1 through 5, 7, 12, 13 evidence, Eul’s 1, 2 evidence (including the number of branches), and the purport of the entire pleadings. 2.

(a) Claims subject to the revocation of fraudulent act;

1) Relevant legal principles

In principle, preservation claims against revocation of a fraudulent act need to be created prior to the occurrence of a fraudulent act. However, there was a high probability of the fact that there was a legal relationship that is the basis of the establishment of claims at the time of the fraudulent act, and that claims will be established in the near future based on such legal relationship. In the near future, where claims have been created due to the realization of such probability in the near future, such claims may also be preserved claims (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2011Da76426, Feb. 23, 2012). Meanwhile, in order to establish the secondary tax liability, the existence of the secondary tax liability must take place, such as the failure of the principal taxpayer, and thus, at least after the lapse of the payment deadline of the primary tax liability (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2010Du13234, May 9, 2012).

A) According to the premise, the Plaintiff is holding the instant taxation claim against B. It is the date on which the respective payment deadline for the Plaintiff’s principal tax liability forCC in 2010 (First), and the amount of value-added tax for the year 2011 shall be January 1, 2012; and the amount of corporate tax for the year 2009 and 2010 (Second) shall be March 1, 2012; first, it is probable that the pertinent portion of the instant taxation claim for the year 2010 (first) and the amount of value-added tax for the year 2011 was established before the Defendant’s revocation of the instant taxation claim for the year 201 (201.6.1.6) and the pertinent portion of the taxation claim for the year 2010 (201.6.1.6.201) were established after the instant transfer of the taxation claim for the year 200 (201.201.6.201).

The defendant asserts that this BB did not actually invest inCCB, or did not take part in its management, and that there is no tax claim against the plaintiff B, because it is not a beneficial shareholder ofCCB. However, an administrative disposition such as tax imposition disposition is not a case where the disposition is obvious and serious defect and thus it is deemed null and void, it shall be deemed a valid one prior to the revocation of the disposition through lawful procedures, such as administrative litigation, unless it is a case where the disposition is deemed null and void. Thus, there is no evidence to acknowledge that the head of the regional tax office designates B as a secondary taxpayer and there is a clear and significant defect in the disposition imposed on it. Thus, the defendant's above assertion is without merit.

B. Establishment of fraudulent act

The defendant's bona fide beneficiary defense is presumed to be a beneficiary of this case.

1) The defendant, as a creditor who lent money to the FF Construction Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the "Co., Ltd.") operated by the FE, the husband of the BB, was transferred the right to lease on a deposit basis in order to secure this right, and is a bona fide beneficiary who was unaware of the fact that the BB was in excess of its obligation.

2) According to the overall purport of evidence Nos. 3 and 4, the defendant lent KRW 3 billion to FF construction on May 13, 2008, and this BB is recognized as a joint and several surety for the above loan obligations of FF construction on December 1, 201, but this fact alone is insufficient to recognize that the defendant had not been aware of the excess obligations of FB at the time of the transfer contract of this case, in light of the following circumstances known by the entire purport of statement and pleading as to evidence No. 8, and there is no evidence to acknowledge otherwise, the defendant's defense is without merit.

① New EE controlled by the management ofCCz is the Defendant’s two shareholders (24.15%). ② A tax investigation was conducted on and around November 201, 201.

③ Along with the lapse of three years from the date of lending the Defendant’s FF construction loan to the Defendant, and after the tax investigation was conducted onCC, BB guaranteed the above loan obligation to the Defendant for FF construction, and transferred the instant chonsegwon to the Defendant.
