The release in this Section 4.11 extends to claims and obligations that the Releasors do not know or suspect to exist in their favor, which, if known by such Releasor, would have materially affected its decision to enter into this release.

9.6 SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE.
Each party hereto acknowledges that the other parties hereto will have no adequate remedy at law if such party fails to perform his or its obligation to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the sale of the RMK Shares to Buyer. In
30
such event, such other parties hereto shall have the right, in addition to any other rights they may have, to specific performance of this Agreement to the extent permissible under Law.
9.7 GOVERNING LAW; ARBITRATION; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed under the Laws of the State of New York as applied to agreements among New York residents entered into and to be performed entirely within New York.
Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the Transactions or the Transaction Documents, including any question regarding the existence, validity or termination of any Transaction Document, the rights or interests thereunder of the parties thereto, or the breach or alleged breach thereof, whether arising prior to or after the Closing, shall be submitted to and finally resolved by arbitration under and in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the Rules) of the American Arbitration Association (the AAA), before a panel of three arbitrators. One of the arbitrators shall be appointed by Buyer, one of the arbitrators shall be appointed by the Selling Shareholders, and the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the two party-appointed arbitrators. If either Buyer or the Selling Shareholders fail to appoint an arbitrator, or the arbitrators fail jointly to appoint a third arbitrator, the AAA sitting in New York City will appoint such arbitrator. The place of arbitration shall be the City, State and County of New York, in the United States of America. The arbitration shall be conducted in English. The arbitrators will apply the law chosen by the parties in the first paragraph of this Section 9.7. The arbitration award shall be written in English. The arbitration award shall be final and binding on the parties, and not subject to any appeal, and shall deal with the question of costs of arbitration and all matters related thereto. The arbitrators shall be empowered to award equitable relief including injunctive relief and/or specific performance, as well as monetary relief. The non-prevailing party will bear the costs of the arbitration and the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party its reasonable attorneys fees and costs. The arbitration award shall be enforceable in any federal, state or local court in the United States of America or in any court located in the Republic of Korea and the parties submit to the jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of enforcing such award. Judgment upon the arbitration award rendered may be entered in any such court, or application may be made to such court for a judicial recognition of the award or an order of enforcement thereof, as applicable. Except as expressly permitted by this Section 9.7, none of the parties hereto, any members of the Buyer Group or any members of the Seller Group shall institute any Litigation against any other party in any court or other forum concerning any dispute arising out of or relating to the
31
Transaction Documents or the Transactions; provided, that a party may apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for injunctive relief.
The parties agree that valid and lawful service of process against them may be achieved by (i) in the case of the Selling Shareholders, personal service of process on CSC, registered agent for service of process for each Selling Shareholder, at the offices of CSC in New York, New York, with a copy of such service of process provided to each Selling Shareholder, Bae, Kim & Lee and Hershner Hunter Andrews Neill & Smith, LLP in a manner provided for in Section 9.5 hereof, (ii) in the case of the Company prior to Closing, by personal service or by commercial international delivery service to the Company with copies provided to Bae, Kim & Lee and Hershner Hunter Andrews Neill & Smith, LLP in a manner provided for in Section 9.5, and (iii) in the case of the Company after the Closing and Buyer, by personal service of process on Buyer, at the offices of Buyer set forth in Section 9.5 hereof, with a copy provided to Proskauer Rose LLP in a manner provided for in Section 9.5 hereof. Any documents required to be provided to a Person pursuant to this paragraph shall be delivered to the address or facsimile number of such Person set forth in this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.5 hereof and the delivery of any such documents to such address or facsimile number shall be deemed to be correct and proper in all respects if so delivered in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.5. The parties agree that, with respect to any process required by the Rules or any court, service of process in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.7 shall constitute valid and lawful service of process against them, without necessity for service by any other means provided by the Rules or other statute or rule of court, and each party hereto irrevocably waives any objection it may have that service of process in such manner is improper or otherwise not valid.
Without limiting the foregoing, each of the parties hereto hereby knowingly, voluntarily, and intentionally waives any rights it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any claims arising out of, under or in connection with this agreement, any of the other transaction documents or any course of conduct, course of dealing, statements (whether oral or written) or actions of the parties hereto.
9.8 DISPUTES.
If any action at law or in equity is necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable attorneys fees, costs and necessary disbursements in addition to any other relief which such party may be entitled.
32
9.9 TERMINATION.
This Agreement may be terminated and the Transactions contemplated hereby may be abandoned at any time prior to the Closing: (i) by the mutual written consent of Buyer and the Company; (ii) by either the Company or Buyer, if the Closing shall not have occurred prior to February 28, 2004 (the Termination Date), provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.9 shall not be available to any party whose failure to fulfill any obligation under this Agreement shall have been the cause of, or shall have resulted in, the failure of the Closing to occur prior to such date; or (iii) by either the Company or Buyer, if any Governmental Entity (x) shall have issued an Order (which the parties shall have used their commercially reasonable efforts to resist, resolve or lift, as applicable) permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the Transactions, and such Order shall have become final and nonappealable; or (y) shall have failed to issue an Order, and such denial of a request to issue such Order shall have become final and nonappealable (which Order the parties shall have used their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 9.9(iii) shall not be available to any party whose failure to use such commercially reasonable efforts shall have been the cause of, or shall have resulted in, such action or inaction. In the event of the termination and abandonment of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9.9, this Agreement shall forthwith become null and void and no member of the Buyer Group or the Seller Group shall have any liability or further obligation under this Agreement to any other party hereto. Nothing contained in this Section 9.9 shall relieve any party from any liability for any breach of this Agreement.
9.10 SEVERABILITY.
The invalidity or unenforceability of any term, provision or covenant contained in this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other term, provision or covenant contained in this Agreement, which shall be deemed to be modified accordingly and shall remain in full force and effect.
9.11 COUNTERPARTS; FACSIMILE SIGNATURES.
This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same document. This Agreement may be executed by facsimile signatures.
9.12 PARTIES IN INTEREST.
This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each party hereto, and their successors and assigns, and Indemnitees, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any other Person (including without limitation any
33
executive or employee of any of the Companies) any rights or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.
9.13 DELAYS OR OMISSIONS.
It is agreed that no delay or omission to exercise any right, power or remedy accruing to any party, upon any breach, default or noncompliance by any other party under this Agreement, shall impair any such right, power or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of any such breach, default or noncompliance, or any acquiescence therein, or of or in any similar breach, default or noncompliance thereafter occurring. It is further agreed that any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind or character on any partys part of any breach, default or noncompliance under this Agreement, or any waiver on such partys part of any provisions or conditions of the Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent specifically set forth in such writing. All remedies, either under this Agreement, or otherwise afforded to any party, shall be cumulative and not alternative.
9.14 REMEDIES.
The indemnification rights under Section 7 are independent of and in addition to such rights and remedies as the Parties may have at law or in equity or otherwise for any misrepresentation, breach of warranty or failure to fulfill any agreement or covenant hereunder on the part of any party hereto, including the right to seek specific performance, rescission or restitution, none of which rights or remedies shall be affected or diminished by Section 7; provided, however, that Buyer acknowledges that Section 7 shall be the exclusive remedy of the Buyer Group for any breach of the representations and warranties in Exhibit C-1 or Exhibit C-2 and for any breach of any other provision of this Agreement, except for fraud or intentional misrepresentation with intent to deceive. Arbitration pursuant to Section 9.7 above shall be the sole remedy available to any member of the Buyer Group or the Seller Group.
