The Sea Master! Korea Line Corporation!

Opening a New Future for Korea Line Corporation Built on Trust and Innovation

Respected Shareholders, Valued Customers, and Dear Employees,

The global shipping industry we face today is undergoing a profound period of transition. The restructuring of global supply chains, increasingly stringent environmental regulations, and an unpredictable macroeconomic environment constantly demand our adaptability and change.

Amid these challenges, I would like to outline four key management principles that we will steadfastly pursue to elevate Korea Line Corporation into a world-leading shipping company.

First, we will establish a solid foundation of trust built on transparency and integrity.

We will completely open all aspects of our management processes to ensure transparency and firmly instill a culture of flawless ethical management that rigorously adheres to laws and principles.

Second, we will practice ESG management, placing ¡®Safety¡¯ and ¡®Sustainability¡¯ as non-negotiable core values.

We will further reinforce our safety and health management systems to achieve a zero-accident workplace. Furthermore, we will accelerate the transition toward an eco-friendly fleet, fulfill our social responsibilities, and enhance corporate governance through genuine and impactful ESG initiatives.

Third, we will foster an ¡®Innovative DNA¡¯ through continuous research and dedicated effort to secure future growth drivers.

While firmly consolidating our stable dedicated vessel (industrial carrier) business, we will proactively enter high-value-added markets and venture into new business areas that will power our future growth. We will transform our corporate culture into a forward-thinking, action-oriented organization that embraces new challenges without fear of failure.

Fourth, we will deliver maximum value to both our customers and shareholders.

We will dramatically step up communication with the market to transparently share our performance and operational status. By establishing predictable, effective shareholder return policies, we will continuously enhance corporate value. Furthermore, we will strengthen long-term partnerships with our customers by providing the safest and most reliable transportation services.

We promise to repay the trust and confidence you have placed in us with sustainable growth and enhanced corporate value.

Thank you.
