We have audited the accompanying non-consolidated statements of financial position of Hyundai Heavy Industries Co., Ltd., (the ¡°Company¡±) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related non-consolidated statements of income, appropriation of retained earnings, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These non-consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these non-consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of Korea. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the non-consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company, as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of its operations, appropriation of its retained earnings, the changes in its equity and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of Korea.

Without qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to the following:

As described in note 9 to the non-consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted the revaluation model for land. As a result of this adoption, the assets were increased by £Ü1,236,485 million.
