3. Leading Products and Technology 1) Features of the Technology • Advantages of our Technology and Product Line • (K2’s main product line) Mobile Processing Solutions using mobile frequencies made possible through partnership with LGT Groundbreaking authorization processing time (2-3 seconds) Patent: 10-0852216 Patent: 10-0915891 Competitive communication costs (9,000 KWR/mo)
3. Leading Products and Technology 1) Features of the Technology • Outline of our technology (Patent: 10-0852216) Terminal Cards Wireless Communication Station (such as LG Telecom) • Due to a processing time of approx. 18-20 seconds when a conventional IC card terminal is used, practical application of IC card terminals was limited; however, our solution provides products and • services that overcome such issues with transactions using mobile phone networks, greatly reducing the processing time to 2 to 3 seconds.

Introduction Growth Maturity Decline 3. Leading Products and Technology 1) Features of the Technology • Life cycle of our technology • Although the current market penetration rate of magnetic and IC cards is at a staggering 80%, • such figures for IC card reading terminals are only at 10%; fur-thermore, payment methods for RFID cards are currently unavailable, placing our technology in the introductory phase of the life cycle. • The financial services commission is currently looking into the full-scale dist-ribution of IC card terminals, which have an unreasonably low distribution rate relative to the distribution of IC cards. The figure for market penetration for IC card terminals for the end of last year was at merely 9.7%, and this is spawning arguments of the ineffectiveness of IC cards.
3. Leading Products and Technology 2) The K2NET Diffrence • The difference with our technology IC card authorizations were made possible by connecting conventional card terminals to our own solution that uses RS-232 ports. In addition, signature data can be stored in servers as conven- tional magnetic card terminals upgraded with an internal electronic signature feature that supports administrative procedures, such as that for lost receipts. Processing authorizations with conventional systems using telephone lines can take about 12-15 seconds; our system, however, includes a wireless modem and can compl-ete an authorization process in 2 to 3 seconds, which is even faster than other wireless telecommunication devices.
3. Leading Products and Technology 2) The K2NET Diffrence • Comparative Analysis of Services • K2NET has the expertise to produce multifunctional wireless card readers that can process magnetic, IC, RFID cards. Other advantages of our system include: use of wireless networks that have fewer usage limitations, as opposed to conventional PSDN or internet, allowing for transaction authorizations that are 8 to 12 seconds faster that other solu- tions; printing funct- ion for tax receipts for cash transactions; connection fees lower than our competitors by 5,000 to 40,000 KRW; point card (customer loyalty card) features; wired/wireless dual mode; electronic signature feature; chauffer service paging; anti-paper jam features; calculator function; mobile payment features.

4. Environmental Analysis 1) Market Analysis • The Scale of the Electronic Transactions Market Electronic Transactions Market Scale : 1billion KRW • Number of credit cards issued: 83 million cards(Source: The Credit Finance Association) In regions such as Europe, the Americas, and Southeast Asia, the need for IC cards has been emphasized for their superior security and they are widely used; domestically, RF format IC cards have been mainstream. Domestically, due to the enforcement of IC distribution policies, the rate for IC cards is at 80%; however, the rate for IC card terminals is at just 10%, making the use of IC cards difficult.
4. Environmental Analysis 1) Market Analysis • The Scale of the Electronic Transactions Market (Scale: 1 billion KRW) • According to Digital Daily/SERI, the global market has been estimated at 500 billion KRW for 2009, and it has been found that Korea’s market accounts for 10%. • As the concern for security is increasing worldwide, the use of security-enhanced cards such as IC or RF cards is anticipated to increase, and thus a sharp spike in the sales of appropriate card terminals is expected accordingly.
4. Environmental Analysis 1) Market Analysis • Card/Terminal Issuance Trends • Cards • Terminals • Cards Mix Magnetic and IC Magnetic Scale : 10thousand 2010 2009 The distribution rate of terminals that allow IC card payments at retail stores is at merely 10%. The volume of IC cards issued totalling at 56.28 million shows a 43.6% increase relative to last year’s figure (39.18 million cards). Credit card companies are adding IC features to the cards they are issuing but many retail stores are using terminals that can only read the magnetic stripe, thus limiting the full potential of IC cards.
