[Grounds for Recognition] The whole purport of the arguments and arguments, as described in the non-contentious facts, Gap 1, 2, 3, and 4 (including household numbers), and Eul 1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 9, 10, and 12 through 17 (including household numbers)

2. As to the cancellation claim of each of the dispositions of this case

A. The plaintiffs' assertion

(1) As to title trust

(A) The shares in the Plaintiff KimB’s name are not registered in title, and each of the dispositions of this case based on the premise that the shares were registered in title is illegal.

(B) Even if the Plaintiff KimB’s shares acquired through capital increase are merely 150,000 shares, and the gift tax assessment of the remaining 8,401 shares is unlawful.

(2) As to the appraisal of market price of shares

The shareholder allocation method is based on the date the right falls, and the third party allocation method is evaluated as of the date following the date of the resolution by the board of directors. The date of market evaluation is June 10, 2005, which is the date following the date of the resolution by the board of directors. In addition, the period of business suspension from July 29, 2005 before the reduction of capital to August 3, 2005 should be excluded from the market price evaluation period, and the termination period of market price evaluation is July 28, 2005. Therefore, the market price of stocks, which forms the basis for the calculation of the taxable amount of gift taxes, is the average share price from June 10, 2005 to July 28, 2005, and each disposition of this case under different premise is unlawful.

(3) As to additional tax

Although the Plaintiffs were subject to the imposition of the previous gift tax, it is practically impossible to expect the instant disposition to fulfill the tax liability, and there is a reasonable ground for non-performance of the tax liability. Therefore, the instant disposition imposing the additional tax is unlawful.

(2) Regarding the transfer time

① 원고 김BB 명의로 유상증자 받은 150,000주에 관하여; ㉮ 유상증자로 주식을 배정받았다면 특별한 사정이 없는 이상 주금납입과 동시에 주주명부에 그 명의로 명의개서가 된다고 봄이 경험칙에 부합하는 점,㉯ LL은 코스닥등록법인이고, 공시시스템에 제3자 배정방식 유상증자 결정공시 및 완료공시가 모두 있었으며, 공시내용에 원고 김BB 및 소외 유FF이 각 150,000주, 소외 윤QQ가 100,000주를 취득한 것으로 되어 있는 접,㉰ 피고도 150,000주에 관하여 주금납입일인 2005. 6. 13. 원고 김OOO 명의로 명의개서가 되었음을 전제로 증여세를 부과하였다가 직권취소하였던 점(실 소유자가 이PP이 아닌 원고 이AA이라는 이유로 직권취소하였을 뿐이므로, 명의개서 시기를 종전과 달리 볼 이유가 없다),㉱ 형사판결문에도 원고 이AA이 2005. 6. 13. 원고 김BB 명의로 LL 주식 150,000주를 취득한 것으로 기재되어 있는 점 등을 고려할 때, 유상증자로 받은 150,000주는 주금납입일인 2005. 6. 13. 원고 김BB 명의로 명의개서가 되었다고 봄이 타당하다

② 나머지 8,401주에 관하여; ㉮ 형사판결문에는 원고 이AA이 원고 검BB 명의로 LL 주식을 2005. 4. 18. 455,000주, 2005. 6. 13. 150,000주, 2005. 7. 6. 2,124 주, 2005. 7. 29. 55,500주를 각 취득하였다고 기재되어 있을 뿐, 2005. 8. 1.자로 취득 한 내역은 확인되지 아니하는 점{더욱이 형사판결문에는 원고 이AA이 2005. 8. 1.자 로 원고 김BB 명의로 보관하고 있는 주식 수는 142,529주로 되어 있으므로, 나머지 주식 15,872주(= 158,401주 - 142.529주)가 명의신탁된 주식이라고 단정할 수 없다},㉯ 원고 이AA이 원고 김BB 명의로 위와 같이 주식을 취득하였음에도 명의개서를 하지 아니할 만한 특별한 사정을 찾아볼 수 없는 점,㉰ 특히 2005. 4. 18. 취득분은 최대주주 변경을 동반한 거래이고 공시까지 이루어졌으므로 매매대금의 지급과 동시에 명의개서가 이루어졌다고 보는 것이 자연스러운 점(공시내용에도 '매매대상 주식의 주식양도는 주식매매 계약서 제3조 ④항에 따라 잔금 지급 시 양도대상 주식 전부를 인도하고 명의개서절차를 이행한다'고 되어 있다),㉱ 피고는 2005. 8. 1.자 LL 주주명부만을 확인하였으므로 거기에 주주로 등재되어 있다고 하더라도 2005. 8. 1.자로 명의개서가 이루어졌다고 단정할 수 없는 점(피고는 적어도 2005. 8. 1.자 이전에 주주명부를 확인하고, 2005. 8. 1.자로 새롭게 명의개서된 주식 수를 확인하였어야 한다) 등을 고려할 때, 8,401주가 2005. 8. 1.자로 명의개서가 이루어졌다고 볼 수 없다.

(3) As to the legality of each of the dispositions of this case

The deemed donation of title trust under Article 45-2(1) of the Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act is deemed to have been made by the actual owner on the date when the actual owner registers, etc. under the name of another person, and as of the date of donation, the market price of the shares, which serves as the basis for calculating the taxable value of the gift tax, is assessed, and the disposition imposing gift tax on the shares held in title, based on another date that cannot be deemed as the opening date in the name of the title, is unlawful. However, as seen earlier, the transfer of the title holder in the name of Plaintiff KimB on the LL shares 158,401 cannot be deemed to have been made on August 1, 2005, and each of the dispositions of this case on the premise that the transfer of title holder was made on August 1, 2005, is unlawful without further review the Plaintiffs’ claims (the

3. Conclusion

Therefore, the plaintiffs' claims are reasonable, and they are decided as above.
