Section 8.4	Limitation on Liability of Sellers

Liabilities of each Seller shall be subject to the following limitations:

	8.4.1	No Seller shall be liable in respect of any claim for breach of this Agreement to the extent that the facts giving rise to the relevant claim have been disclosed to Purchaser in the Disclosure Materials. For the purposes hereof, “Disclosure Materials” means: the written information and documents (including the Financial Statements) provided to Purchaser by Sellers, the Company and their respective Representatives before the date of this Agreement in the virtual or physical data room, an index of which is set out in Schedule 4; the written responses given by Sellers, the Company and their respective Representatives before the date of this Agreement to questions raised by Purchaser in the due diligence process, copies of which are set of in Schedule 4; and the Disclosure Schedules.

	8.4.2	Purchaser shall procure that all reasonable steps are taken and all reasonable assistance is given to avoid or mitigate any Losses which in the absence of mitigation might give rise to a liability in respect of any claim under this Agreement.

	8.4.3	Purchaser shall not be entitled to recover from any Seller under this Agreement more than once in respect of the same Losses suffered by Purchaser.

	8.4.4	The amount of any claim for a Loss under this Agreement shall be reduced (i) to the extent the relevant Purchaser Indemnified Party receives any insurance proceeds with respect to such Loss or (ii) to take into account any payment or other benefit actually received or enjoyed by the relevant Purchaser Indemnified Party with respect to such Loss. If a Purchaser Indemnified Party recovers any amount from any third party in respect of a Loss that is the subject of indemnification hereunder after all or a portion of such Loss has been paid by any Seller pursuant to this Article 8, such Purchaser Indemnified Party shall promptly remit to the applicable Seller the excess (if any) of (i) the amount paid by such Seller in respect of such Loss, plus the amount received from the third party in respect thereof, less (ii) the full amount of such Loss.

	8.4.5	Unless and until the Closing occurs in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or if this Agreement is terminated for any reason whatsoever, no Seller shall have any liability to Purchaser, whether in tort, contract or otherwise, except in case the liability arises as a result of fraud or wilful misconduct by such Seller.

	8.4.6	In the event the Closing occurs, each Seller shall have no liability to Purchaser, whether in tort, contract or otherwise, except for the indemnification obligations set forth in Section 8.2, which shall be subject to: each Seller shall have no liability unless and until the total of all Losses for which such Seller is liable exceeds an amount equal to 250,000,000 Won (the “Deductible”), and then only for the amount by which such Losses exceed the Deductible, up to a maximum aggregate liability for each Seller equal to 12,500,000,000 Won (for each Seller, the “Maximum Indemnification Liability”); provided, that with respect to indemnification obligations arising from any inaccuracies in or breaches of the representations and warranties contained in (A) paragraphs 8, 9 and 11 through 32 of Part 1 of Schedule 2 only, each Seller shall have no liability for more than an amount equal to the product of any Losses times the H&Q Allocation Ratio or the PSA Allocation Ratio, as applicable to such Seller and (B) paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 and 10 of Part 1 of Schedule 2 and in case of PSA only, its indemnification obligations under Section 8.2(iii) relating to the Capital Gains Tax, neither the Deductible (or the subtraction of the amount of such Deductible from total liability) nor the Maximum Indemnification Liability shall be applicable to such Seller; provided further, that the aggregate liability of each Seller (regardless of whether such liability is based in tort, contract or otherwise) shall not exceed an amount equal to 100.0% of the PSA Net Purchase Price or the H&Q Net Purchase Price, as applicable to such Seller.

	8.4.7	Obligations and liabilities of Sellers under this Agreement are several and not joint and in no event shall any Seller be obligated to indemnify Purchaser under this Agreement or otherwise liable to Purchaser (regardless of whether such liability is based in tort, contract or otherwise) for any Losses incurred by Purchaser by reason of, resulting from or arising out of any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations made by the other Seller in this Agreement.

	8.4.8	Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the compensations provided in Article 8 shall be the sole and exclusive right and remedy of Purchaser for all Losses as a result of or due to any breach of any representation or warranty, covenant, agreement or other obligation of a Seller under this Agreement, and therefore, it is specifically agreed that no claim for damages, reduction of the consideration or other remedies whatsoever under any Law or legal principle shall be available to Purchaser against any Seller, except in case the liability arises as a result of fraud or wilful misconduct by such Seller.

	8.5.4	The amount of any claim for a Loss under this Agreement shall be reduced (i) to the extent the relevant Seller Indemnified Party receives any insurance proceeds with respect to such Loss or (ii) to take into account any payment or other benefit actually received or enjoyed by the relevant Seller Indemnified Party with respect to such Loss.

Section 8.6

Procedure for Indemnification

8.6.1

If a Party becomes aware of any matter or circumstance that may give rise to a claim against the other Party, such Party shall as soon as reasonably practicable give a written notice thereof (a “Claim Notice”) to such other Party setting out such information as is available to such Party as is reasonably necessary to enable such other Party to assess the merits of the claim, to act to preserve evidence and to make such provision as such other Party may consider necessary.

	8.6.2	A Claim Notice under this Agreement by any of Seller Indemnified Parties or Purchaser Indemnified Parties to the indemnifying Party (“Indemnifying Party”) shall specify in reasonable detail the legal and factual basis of the claim and the evidence on which the relevant Party giving such Claim Notice relies and, an estimate of the amount of Losses which are, or are to be, the subject of the claim (including any Losses which are contingent on the occurrence of any future event). No delay in providing a Claim Notice by the Indemnified Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations hereunder, except in case where any right or defense available to the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced or otherwise impaired by reason of such delay, provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no claim may be asserted nor may any action be commenced against any Indemnifying Party unless a Claim Notice for such claim or action is given prior to the termination of the relevant survival period set out in Section 8.1.

	8.6.3	The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) Business Days after its receipt of a Claim Notice to respond in writing to such Claim Notice. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its Representatives to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance as the Indemnifying Party or any of its Representatives may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30) Business Day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such Claim Notice, in which case the Indemnified Party shall have the right to commence arbitration or legal proceedings pursuant to Section 12.8 of this Agreement.

	8.6.4	Any claim notified pursuant to this Section 8.6 shall (if it has not been previously satisfied, settled or withdrawn) be deemed to be irrevocably withdrawn at the later of (i) one (1) month after the expiry of the relevant survival period as set out in Section 8.1 or (ii) two (2) months after the date of the Claim Notice for such claim, unless at such time arbitration or legal proceedings in respect of the relevant claim (x) have been commenced (in the case of legal proceedings by being both issued and served) and (y) are being and continue to be pursued with reasonable diligence.

	8.6.5	If any claim is instituted by a third party (including any Governmental Authority) against any Indemnified Party (a “Third Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall promptly, but in no event more than fifteen (15) days following such Indemnified Party’s receipt of such a Third Party Claim, send a claim notice to the Indemnifying Party.

	8.6.6	The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its expense, to participate in or assume control of the negotiation, settlement or defense of a Third Party Claim by advising the Indemnified Party of its election within thirty (30) days of the date it receives notice of the Third Party Claim from the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to participate in or assume control of such negotiation, settlement or defense, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to defend the Indemnified Party by appropriate proceedings and shall have the sole power to direct and control the negotiation, settlement or defense of such Third Party Claim, and the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the negotiation, settlement or defense of such Third Party Claim and to retain counsel to act on its behalf; provided, however, that the fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be paid by the Indemnified Party unless (i) the Indemnifying Party has requested the Indemnified Party to participate in such negotiation, settlement or defense, (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party, or (iii) in the reasonable opinion of the counsel to the Indemnifying Party, there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that would make such separate representation advisable, in any of which events the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for reasonable fees and expenses of the Indemnified Party’s counsel.

	8.6.7	The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party so as to permit the Indemnifying Party to conduct the negotiation, settlement and defense of a Third Party Claim and for this purpose shall preserve all relevant documents in relation to such Third Party Claim, allow the Indemnifying Party access on reasonable notice to inspect and take copies of all such documents and require its personnel to provide such statements as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably require and to attend and give evidence at any trial or hearing in respect of such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party (i) elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, (ii) fails to notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or (iii) elects to assume control of the negotiation, settlement or defense of the third party claim but thereafter fails to conduct such negotiation, settlement or defense with reasonable diligence, then the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume such control and settle, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim.

	8.6.8	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except that the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to settle a Third Party Claim if such settlement does not lead to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim.

	8.6.9	The Indemnified Party shall not settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any claim for which it is seeking indemnification from the Indemnifying Party or admit to any liability with respect to such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article 8, no Indemnifying Party shall have any liability for any Losses arising out of or in connection with any Third Party Claim that is settled or compromised by an Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of such Indemnifying Party (subject to the foregoing sentence).
