(3) If the Prime Contractor has a Parent, the offeror shall submit the Parent’s Certified Copy of Register

(등기부등본 (유효사항)) as certified and submitted to the ROK Supreme Court (대법원). In order for the Prime

Contractor to qualify as a Korean Contractor, the fourth block of the offeror’s Parent’s Certified Copy of Register
