[Date]

The Export-Import Bank of Korea


[Address]

Re : The Interbank Export Loan Agreement dated as of [•], 20[•] between [Name of the
Borrower] and The Export-Import Bank of Korea

Dear Sirs:

In our capacity as counsel to [Name of the Borrower] (the "Borrower"), we have


examined the following documents relating to the Interbank Export Loan Agreement
dated [•], 20[•] (the "Agreement") between the Borrower and The Export-Import Bank
of Korea (the "Eximbank"):

(a) [original/faxed copy/copy] of the [executed copy of the] Agreement;


(b) certified copy of the Articles of Incorporation of the Borrower;
(c) [certified copy of the Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Borrower resolved
in accordance with the Articles of Incorporation of the Borrower authorizing and
approving the Borrower to execute the Agreement and authorizing and approving
the persons listed in the Certificate of Authority to execute the said documents on
behalf of the Borrower;]
(d) certified copy of the Certificate of Authority;
(e) a certificate of good standing of the Borrower from the state government of the
jurisdiction where the Borrower is incorporated; and
(f) such other documents which we have considered necessary or appropriate as a basis
for the opinions expressed herein.

The opinions expressed herein are limited to questions arising under the laws of
[Borrower's country], and we do not purport to express an opinion on any question
arising under the laws of any other jurisdiction.

32
All terms defined in the Agreement and used but not defined herein have the meanings
given to them in the Agreement.

Subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that:

1. Power and Authority.  The Borrower is a corporation duly incorporated and validly
existing under the laws of [Borrower's country], and has the power and authority to own
its property, to conduct its business as currently conducted and to execute, deliver and
perform the Agreement.

2. Authorization.  The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the


Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary actions of the Borrower, and do
not contravene any law, rule or regulation of [Borrower's country].

3. Government Approvals. All governmental authorizations, approvals and consents of


[Borrower's country] which are necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and
performance of the Agreement have been obtained and are in full force and effect.

4. Enforceability. The Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the
Borrower and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower
enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their respective terms.

5. No Default. No event has occurred and is continuing that constitutes an Event of


Default or a Potential Event of Default under the Agreement or any other agreement to
which the Borrower is a party or by which it may be bound.

6. Legal Proceeding.  There are no actions or proceedings pending or, to my


knowledge, threatened, the adverse determination of which might have a materially
adverse effect on the financial condition of the Borrower or impair the ability of the
Borrower to perform its obligations under the Agreement.

7. No Immunity.  Neither the Borrower nor its property has any right of immunity on
grounds of sovereignty or otherwise from jurisdiction, attachment (before or after
judgment) or execution in respect of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating
to the Agreement.

33
8. No Stamp Duty, Tax or Other Charges.  No stamp duty, tax or other charges are
payable on or by reason of the execution and delivery by the Borrower of the
Agreement.
All sums payable by the Borrower under the Agreement will be made without any
deduction of or an account of any tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or
withholding of whatsoever nature imposed by any taxing authority of the Borrower's
country.

9. Choice of Law.  The choice by the parties to the Agreement of the laws of [Name of
the Country] to govern the Agreement is legal, valid and binding.

10. Jurisdiction.  The Borrower has the power to submit, and pursuant to the
Agreement has legally, validly and irrevocably submitted, to the jurisdiction of the
federal or state courts sitting in [the State of New York, United States of America] in
respect of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Agreement. In the
event that a judgment of such courts were obtained after service of process in the
manner specified in the Agreement, the same would be recognized and enforced by the
courts of [Borrower's country] without a further review on the merits, provided,
however, that (list of applicable conditions for the recognition and enforcement of a
foreign judgment in the Borrower's country).

Very truly yours,
