Agenda 2. Approval of the ceiling amount of remuneration for directors

KEPCO seeks to obtain approval regarding the ceiling amount of remuneration for directors for the fiscal year 2022, pursuant to Article 388 of the Commercial Act and Article 35 of the Articles of Incorporation of KEPCO.

 

   

Proposed aggregate ceiling on remuneration for directors:

 

  o

2,092,695 thousand won in fiscal year 2022 (total number of directors: 15; number of non-standing directors: 8)

 

  o

2,183,920 thousand won in fiscal year 2021 (total number of directors: 15; number of non-standing directors: 8)

 

   

The actual remuneration for directors in the fiscal year 2021 was 1,527,934 thousand won.

 

   

We proposed to decrease the maximum aggregate amount of remuneration for directors in 2022 by 4.2% compared to 2021 as a result of (i) the notification by the Government to increase the remuneration for directors of government controlled entities by 1.4% (13,002 thousand won), (ii) the decreased cap of performance-based compensation by 54,620 thousand won and (iii) the decreased severance payments by 49,607 thousand won due to the decrease in the average incumbency of our directors from 30 months to 22 months.
