Evidence Nos. 8, 10, 11, and Nos. 1 and 2 of the Grounds for Recognition; fact-finding with respect to Law Firm ○○; the purport of the whole pleadings
D. Determination
In full view of the following circumstances revealed by the above facts of recognition, the Plaintiff transferred the instant shares at KRW 4.6 billion to △○○○○○○, and on the premise of this, the Defendant’s disposition rejecting the Plaintiff’s claim for correction is lawful.
1) The transfer price of the instant shares is KRW 4.6 billion determined according to the result of the accounting firm’s assessment of the value of the instant shares as of December 31, 2011.
2) On June 27, 2012, 200, 720,000 shares issued to the Plaintiff via capital increase increase with the third party allotment method was allocated to the Plaintiff. The said content was electronically announced, but there was no evidence to deem that it was false.
3) On July 16, 2012, the Plaintiff confirmed that 3.6 billion won was received from ○○○, a law firm, from ○○○○, and there was no evidence to deem that it was false.
4) For the purpose of disposition on default, the Defendant seized the real securities of 720,000 shares in the name of the Plaintiff in the name of the Plaintiff, and currently keeps them.
5) The instant share transfer is paid in the amount of KRW 1 billion on June 4, 2012. On June 27, 2012, the Plaintiff appears to have been fully allocated 7.2 million shares in the name of the Plaintiff, and the implementation of the contract was completed. However, it is difficult to view that the content of the contract was modified by the agreement between the parties on July 20, 2012. 6) According to the original return clause under the agreement (Evidence A) (Article 8) the Plaintiff would return the price and shares received from ○○○○○○ (Evidence), and returned the instant shares to the Plaintiff. Since the contents of the final agreement (Evidence 10) are different, it is difficult to view that the instant final agreement was made pursuant to the aforementioned return clause. Rather, it is difficult to view that the Plaintiff and △○○○ was a new share transfer agreement that was concluded on July 20, 2012 separate from the instant transfer agreement.
3. Conclusion
Therefore, the plaintiff's claim is dismissed as it is without merit. It is so decided as per Disposition.
