On March 26, 2026, WEBTOON Entertainment Inc. announced the approval of a new Housing Assistance Policy by its Board of Directors. This policy is specifically designed to support the relocation of the company's Chief Executive Officer (CEO) from Korea to the United States for operational purposes. Under this policy, the CEO will receive a fixed annual cash allowance of $250,350, which will be disbursed on a monthly basis. To qualify for this benefit, the CEO must be actively employed at the time of payment. The policy aims to ensure that the CEO has a stable living environment that meets safety and security standards, thereby allowing for a focused execution of business objectives. The details of the Housing Assistance Policy are outlined in Exhibit 10.1 of the current report, which is filed as part of the Form 8-K. This initiative reflects the company's commitment to supporting its leadership during significant transitions and is expected to enhance operational efficiency as the CEO settles into the new location. The policy is subject to review after an initial two-year period, considering the CEO's circumstances and overall business needs. This strategic move is anticipated to have a positive impact on the company's operational execution and governance controls, as it aligns with the broader strategy of enhancing leadership stability during critical phases of growth.
