1. The obligations under this guarantee contract are overdraft, loans,

acceptance of sale at a discount of promissory notes; aval/guarantee of
the promissory notes by the Bank as requested by the debtor or other
debts related to promissory notes; letters of guarantee issued by the

Bank and/or the debts the debtor may have with the Bank in the future,
though the said debts may be one or several types or incurred at
different times, and in whichever amount the debts may be, hereinafter
called the "primary debt."
Both parties mutually understand that the Guarantors shall be liable to
not only the guarantee amount prescribed above, but also the
accessories thereof such as the unpaid interest and compensation
payment of the debtor, encumbrances which are accessories of the
primary debt, including all expenses that the Bank has to pay in
collection or litigation against the debtor for enforcement of
performance of obligations as well.
As the guarantee under this contract shall be for the existing primary
debt that the debtor has with the Bank and/or the debts the debtor may
have with the Bank in the future, the Guarantors agree that for as long
as the Bank has not canceled the guarantee under this contract though
at any time the debtor may have no obligation with the Bank, the
Guarantors agree that this Guarantee Contract shall remain valid in
order to guarantee the future debts.
2. In case the debtor is in default of repayment of the above primary
debt, be it all items or separate item, or there is a request for
business reorganization of the debtor, or an action has been entered
against the debtor for Bankruptcy, or is subject to receivership by
court order, or dies or becomes incompetence or quasi-incompetence or
disappears or departs the residence and cannot be found, under any
circumstances that may cause the Bank to be unable to receive repayment
of the said primary debt, or the debtor can no longer take advantage of
the beginning or the end of the term, the Guarantors shall be liable
jointly with the debtor as the joint debtors of the obligations under
Clause 1 forthwith. Thereby, the Guarantors agree to perform the
obligations to the Bank promptly and/or consent the Bank to deduct such
amount and/or the right of claim of the Guarantors under Clause 11
and/or enforce the pledged property of the Guarantors under Clause 12,
as the Bank wishes, without having to demand the debtor to perform the
obligations first, though the debtor may have property, and without
prejudice to the right of the Bank to proceed to demand or enter an
action against the debtor, the heir or the estate and/or the subrogee
of the rights and duties of the debtor to perform the obligations
first, as the Bank deems appropriate. In such case, if the Bank has not
received performance of obligations, or has received the same but not
in full, the Guarantors consent that the Bank has taken such action for
the Guarantors, and the Guarantors consent to pay the outstanding debt
or the remaining amount promptly, and agree to make reimbursement on
the fees and/or expenses the Bank has paid for taking such action,
whether the Bank has notified the Guarantors in advance or not, and
whether the Bank has demanded or entered an action against the
Guarantors jointly with the debtor, the heir or the estate and/or the
subrogee of the rights and duties of the debtor or not.
In case any particular item of the primary debt guaranteed under this
contract is a debt that the Bank is binding to perform the obligations
that the debtor has with a third party such as issuance of letter of
guarantee, aval/guarantee of promissory notes or other debt in such
nature, the Guarantors hereby consent that if the creditor according to
the said right of claim demands payment from the Bank according to the
burden the Bank has made, the Bank is entitled to make such payment
immediately without having to notify the Guarantors and/or the debtor
first, and it is not necessary to inquire the debtor whether the debtor
has any defense against the creditor or not, or though the Bank may be
informed that the debtor has a defense against the creditor, but if the
Bank deems it appropriate the Bank can make such payment without having
to raise such defense against the creditor.
3. This guarantee shall be valid continuously, whereby the Guarantors
shall not revoke it under any circumstances, for as long as the Bank
has not received performance of obligations under Clause 1 in full. In
case a Guarantor dies, the Guarantor consents that the obligations or
duties of the Guarantor under this contract shall be devolved to the
heir or the estate or the subrogee of the rights and duties of the
Guarantor in full amount of the obligations for as long as the Bank has
not received performance of the obligations under Clause 1 in full.
4. This guarantee shall bind the Guarantors completely, though it may
appear at a later date that the debtor shall not be liable to the Bank
due to the fact that such agreement was entered with misunderstanding
or due to being an incompetent person, disregarding the fact that at
the time of entering into this Guarantee Contract, the Guarantors knew
of the misunderstanding or incompetence or not.
5. In case the debtor dies and the Bank has not entered an action for
enforcement from the heir or the estate or the subrogee of rights and
duties of the debtor, until one year from the date of death, the
Guarantors shall not raise preclusion by prescription as a defense
against the Bank, and shall consent to be liable to performance of the
outstanding obligations jointly with the debtor as the joint debtor
according to the outstanding amount the debtor has with the Bank
accordingly.
6. The Guarantors consent the Bank to grant leniency and/or reduce the
debt and/or compromise and/or permit debt restructuring to the debtor
on every occasion, whether the Guarantors have been notified in advance
or not, and that the Guarantors shall waive the right on the debtor's
defense against the Bank when the Bank demands the Guarantors to comply
with the contract.
7. Though it may appear that any act of the Bank may cause the Guarantors
to be unable to subrogate, either in whole or in part, of the rights,
mortgage, pledge or preference right which the debtor has submitted to
the Bank prior to or at the time of entering into this contract, the
liabilities of the Guarantors under this contract shall not be
relieved, either in whole or in part.
8. The Guarantors consent that any act of the debtor or a third party
causing an interruption to the prescription of the debts under
guarantee to the disadvantage of the debtor, it shall be the
disadvantage of the Guarantors as well.
