Agenda 2. Approval of the ceiling amount of remuneration for directors in 2025

KEPCO seeks to obtain approval regarding the ceiling amount of remuneration for directors for the fiscal year 2025, 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:
2,172,984 thousand won in fiscal year 2025 (total number of directors: 15; number of non-standing directors: 8)
--- ---
2,011,083 thousand won in fiscal year 2024 (total number of directors: 15; number of non-standing directors: 8)
--- ---
The actual remuneration for directors in the fiscal year 2024 was 1,285,885 thousand won.<br>
--- ---
We proposed to increase the maximum aggregate ceiling on remuneration for directors in 2025 by<br>161,901 thousand won compared to 2024 as a result of (i) the notification by the Government to increase the remuneration for directors of government controlled entities by 2.7% (26,398 thousand won), (ii) the adjusted payment ceiling<br>for performance-based compensation (71,847 thousand won) and (iii) the increased severance payments by 63,656 thousand won due to the increase in the average incumbency of our directors ( 17<br>g 25 months).
