(6) In addition to the total payments as presented in the above table, Won 115 million in cash was paid to Mr. Jae Mok Cho, former non-executive director of KB Financial Group, for 3,090 shares of stock grants that were provided to Mr. Cho in 2009. (Pursuant to the Best Practice Guidelines for Outside Directors of Banking Institutions, performance-based compensation to non-executive directors, including stock grants, has been prohibited since 2010.)
(7) In addition to the total payments as presented in the above table, we recorded Won 991 million in our income statement for the year ended December 31, 2014 with respect to performance-based stock grants, the payment and amount of which are determined in accordance with the performance of the grantees.

   1.53~4.53      2.08         35,335       36,639~36,858

 

  (ii) Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the stock price over the most recent period that is generally commensurate with the expected term of the grant. The current stock price as of December 31, 2014 was used as the underlying asset price in estimating fair value. In addition, the average three-year historical dividend rate was used as the expected dividend rate in measuring fair value.
