2. Relevant statutes;

Attached Form is as shown in the attached Form.

3. Whether the disposition is lawful;

A. Whether the taxation disposition against the remaining plaintiffs, excluding the plaintiff Bobane, is legitimate

(1) The plaintiffs' assertion

Article 5(6)1 (c) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax Act (amended by Presidential Decree No. 15193, Dec. 31, 1996; hereinafter the same shall apply) provides that the method of calculating non-listed stocks shall be the arithmetic average value of each appraised value pursuant to the net asset value method and net profit and loss method concurrently in assessing non-listed stocks. Article 5(4) and (5) of the former Enforcement Rule of the Inheritance Tax Act (amended by Presidential Decree No. 629, Apr. 197; hereinafter the same shall apply) provides that the net value of each share shall be calculated by dividing the net value of the issued stocks as of the base date of appraisal in calculating the net value of the shares before and after the base date of appraisal so that it can be calculated by dividing the net value of the shares calculated by the above net value of each share as of the end date of each business year by the net value of the issued stocks before and after the base date of appraisal. The main sentence of Article 5(5) of the former Enforcement Rule of the Inheritance Tax Act provides that the net value of each share shall be calculated by dividing the net value of each share.

(2) Determination

(A) Article 5(6)1(c)(2) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax Act provides that one share value of unlisted stocks shall be calculated by the average method by aggregating the net asset value and net profit and loss value, and among them, the net asset value shall be calculated by dividing the net asset value of the relevant corporation into the total number of outstanding stocks. The net asset value here refers to the amount obtained by deducting liabilities from the asset value of the relevant corporation as of the base date of appraisal (Article 5(6)1(d) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Inheritance Tax Act)

In addition, net value of profit and loss shall be calculated by dividing the weighted average of net profit and loss per share for the preceding three years by the return rate as prescribed by the Ordinance of the Prime Minister. The weighted average of net profit and loss per share for the preceding three years shall be calculated by calculating the weighted average of net profit and loss per share for the preceding three years: [the net profit and loss per share for the business year which has become one year before the commencement of the inheritance x 3] + (2) + (1) x 1/6 of the former Enforcement Rule of the Inheritance Tax Act] x (Article 5(4) of the former Enforcement Rule of the Inheritance Tax Act). This is to give weight to the most recent trend of profit and loss in calculating the net profit and loss per share in the above formula. The number of stocks for each business year shall be calculated based on the total number of stocks issued as of the end of each business year (the main sentence of Article 5(5) of the former Enforcement Rule of the Inheritance Tax Act). However, the number of stocks issued without compensation per business year before and after the commencement of each business year 5 years (the number of free share issuance without compensation).

(B) However, it is deemed that the method of seeking the value of net profit and loss in the above formula applied to the above plaintiffs in the taxation disposition of this case is unreasonable to disregard the fact that the number of stocks with 10,000 shares as of the end of May 4, 1996 was increased to 10,000 shares as of May 4, 1996. However, the net value of the stock and loss is calculated by dividing the net profit and loss by the total number of stocks issued in the pertinent business year. Thus, the number of new stocks that have not contributed at all to realizing the net profit and loss amount during the pertinent business year is not added, and even if it is calculated based on the "total number of stocks issued as of the end of the business year" as of the total number of stocks issued as of the end of the pertinent business year, it does not violate the market value principle under Articles 34-7 and 9(2) of the former Inheritance Tax Act, and there is no ground for calculating the value of net profit and loss by applying the "total stocks issued as of October 10, 20, 20.

Therefore, the instant taxation disposition by the Defendants against the above Plaintiffs, which assessed the value of new shares in accordance with each of the above statutes, is lawful.

B. Whether the taxation disposition against the Plaintiff Band B and B is legitimate

(1) The above plaintiff's assertion

(A) The period of June 26, 1997 after the increase of capital by May 30, 1997 is less than one month, and there is no special change in the company’s business performance or financial status during the above period, and thus, the appraised value per share before the increase of capital by June 26, 1997 (amended by the Presidential Decree No. 15971, Dec. 31, 1998; hereinafter the same shall apply) Articles 54 through 56 of the former Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act, the former Enforcement Rule of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act (amended by the Ordinance No. 79, May 7, 1999; hereinafter the same shall apply) shall be applied to 00 won per share after the increase of capital by deeming the amount to be less than 1 million won, 1 million won per share after May 30, 1997 x 95,6400 won + 1 million won per share before the increase of capital x 6060 million won per share.

(B) Even if it is not so, Article 56 (1) 1 of the former Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act provides that in calculating the net profit and loss value of a stock, “the net profit and loss amount for the immediately preceding three years” shall be calculated by dividing them into “the number of days as of the end of the pertinent business year”. This is premised on the same net value per share value per share after the increase in the capital, and thus, it cannot be said that the net profit and loss amount of the corporation increased as of the rate of the shares increased as of the increase in the increase in the capital, or that the increase in the net profit and loss amount cannot be said to have increased as above. Thus, the above formula is deemed to have been donated more than the actual profit and loss, and thus, the value of the property on which the gift tax is imposed shall be calculated based on the market value as of the date of donation (amended by Act No. 6301, Dec. 29, 200; hereinafter the same shall apply). Therefore, it is against the principle of appraisal of Article 60 (1).

(2) Determination

(A) On December 30, 1996, the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act was amended by Act No. 5193 on December 30, 199, and the Enforcement Rule of the same Act were also amended. Article 63(1)1 (c) of the former Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act, which provides for the evaluation of unlisted stocks, and Article 54, 55, and 56 of the Enforcement Rule of the same Act, and Article 17 of the Enforcement Rule of the same Act are identical or similar to those of the former Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act before the amendment. However, Article 29(2)1 of the former Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act provides that the value per share after the issuance of new stocks when new stocks are cultivated from the capital increase is calculated by calculating the value per share after the issuance of new stocks (value per share before the increase x number of new stocks issued before the increase x number of stocks issued before the increase x number of stocks issued before the increase x (number of stocks increased by the increase x number of stocks issued before the increase).

(B) In relation to this, the plaintiff Lee Han-chul asserts that the evaluation value per share before the capital increase should not be calculated by the supplementary evaluation method pursuant to Articles 54 through 56 of the former Inheritance and Gift Tax Act, not by the supplementary evaluation method pursuant to Articles 54 through 56 of the former Inheritance and Gift Tax Act, but by the evaluation value per share after the capital increase on May 30, 1997.

However, the above formula only provides that "the appraised value per share before the increase in the capital," but does not provide for the specific contents of the appraisal value per share before the increase in the capital, it is reasonable to interpret the literal interpretation as a matter of course to mean the amount calculated under the provisions of Articles 54 through 56 of the Enforcement Decree of the above Act on the basis of the time immediately before the increase in the capital. In other words, the circumstance asserted by the plaintiff is short of time between the increase in the capital of May 30, 1997 and the increase in the capital of June 26, 197. The reason why there was no change in a special financial situation is that the appraisal value of new shares immediately after the increase in the capital was issued on May 30, 1997 (this is the valuation value per share before the increase in the capital of May 30, 1997). Thus, the above plaintiff's above assertion is without reason to determine the value of new shares before the increase in the capital of May 30, 1997.

In addition, in assessing the net profit and loss value of stocks, the Plaintiff asserts that the net profit and loss value at the end of the pertinent year should be divided into the total number of stocks issued as of the evaluation base date, not into the total number of stocks issued as of the end of the pertinent year, but the above Defendant’s calculation by dividing the net profit and loss value of stocks into the total number of stocks issued as of the evaluation base date is lawful as seen above. Rather, there is no basis for calculating it by dividing it into the total number of stocks issued as of the evaluation base date, and the inheritance and gift tax, which was amended by Presidential Decree No. 15193 on December 31, 1996, which was revised by Presidential Decree No. 15193 on December 31, 196, was revised to calculate the assessment value per share after the issuance of new stocks in cases where

Therefore, the taxation of this case against the above plaintiff, which was assessed by the value of new shares in accordance with the above laws and regulations, is legitimate.

4. Conclusion

Therefore, since all of the taxation disposition by the Defendants are legitimate, the plaintiffs' claims of this case seeking revocation are all dismissed as it is without merit. It is so decided as per Disposition.
