4. Exercise Method

Kookmin Bank may choose to grant shares by means of: 1) issuing new shares; 2) granting treasury shares; or 3) granting cash or treasury shares for the difference between the exercise price and the market price.

5. Exercise Price

5.1 For Executive Vice Presidents and the Heads of Regional Headquarters: 57,100 Won

5.2 For Auditor & Executive Directors and Non-Executive Directors

Calculation formula

Exercise price = 57,100 Won x (1 + the increase rate of KOSPI banking industry Index x 0.4)

The increase rate of KOSPI banking industry Index = (KOSPI banking industry Index as of the starting date of exercise period* ) – KOSPI banking industry Index as of the grant date) / KOSPI banking industry Index as of the grant date.

If the increase rate of KOSPI banking industry index is less than zero, it shall be regarded as zero for the calculation.

6. Exercise Period

The exercise period is from March 23, 2005 to March 22, 2010.

7. Adjustment of the exercise price and the number of options

In the event of any right offering, stock dividend, transfer of reserves to capital, stock split, reverse split, or merger, which require adjustments of the price or the numbers of stock after the option grant date, the board of directors shall adjust the number of options and the exercise price to reflect the changes.

*When the grantee retires prior to the three years as of grant date, KOSPI banking industry index shall be calculated as of the date of the retirement
