AGREEMENTS

 

6.1

INCREASE OF CORPORATE CAPITAL THROUGH THE ISSUANCE OF PAID SHARES

 

PROPOSAL:                 The President indicated that in accordance with the summons, the Board’s proposal corresponding to submitting for consideration by the shareholders to increase the corporate capital through the issuance of paid shares, in the amount, form and conditions determined by the Meeting. This capital increase would have the purpose of implementing a compensation program for the workers of the Company and its affiliates in the terms indicated below. Also, the resources obtained from the increase in capital, would be destined to finance working capital and the company’s business plan.

 

The President requested the Secretary of the Meeting, mister José Miguel Bambach Salvatore, to inform the shareholders of the other matters relating to this proposal to increase capital and program of options for workers of the Company and its affiliates.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



 

 

 

 

(A)

Amount of the Increase and Number of Shares

 

The Secretary of the Meeting, mister José Miguel Bambach Salvatore, spoke and proposed to the Meeting an increase in corporate capital from the amount of US$ 134,303,353, divided into 318,909,090 shares of the same series, nominative, ordinary, without nominal value, completely subscribed and paid for, to the amount of US$ 206,478,253, divided into 326,409,090 shares, through the issuance of 7,500,000 paid shares with the same characteristics as the existing ones, representing a total increase in capital in the amount of US$ 72,174,900.

 

Next, he proposed that of the shares to be issued, 10% of them, that is, an amount of 750,000 shares, be assigned as of that moment to compensation plans that the Board shall draw up to that effect for the workers of the Company and its affiliates, through a program of options for subscription of the shares of the Company, remaining broadly authorized for this. With respect to this portion of the increase, the shareholders would not have the preference option benefit, as stipulated in paragraph three of article 24 of Law 18,046.

 

In turn, he indicated that the remaining 6,750,000 proposed new shares to be issued would be preferentially offered to the shareholders pro rata to owned shares registered in their name in the Registry of Shareholders on the fifth business day prior to the date of publication of the notice marking the beginning of the period of the preference option.

 

 

(B)

Placement Price

 

Continuing with his presentation, mister Bambach proposed authorizing the Board of the Company to proceed with determining the final placement price of the paid shares, in conformance with paragraph two of article 28 of the Corporations Regulations, in which case the placement shall be made within the 120 days following the date of the Meeting. To such effect, the Board shall begin the period of legal preference right within the mentioned 120 day period.

 

In any case, the price of the new shares may not be less than the amount of US$ 9.62332 per share, in its equivalent in pesos according to the denominated Observed Dollar exchange rate published in the Official Gazette on the day that the Board determines the placement price. This amount corresponds to the weighted average quoted value of the shares of the Company during the 120 days immediately preceding this Meeting, in the Santiago Commercial Exchange, the Stock Exchange, that is, the amount of $5,187.45 per share, which, at the Observed Dollar exchange rate published for January 25, 2007 corresponds to the amount of dollars indicated above.

 

 

(C)

Issuance and Placement of the Shares

 

Mister Bambach proposed authorizing the Board of the Company to proceed and establish, with the broadest authorizations, the terms of the issuance and placement of paid shares necessary for the materialization of the agreed capital increase and its subscription and payment.

 

To these effects, he indicated that the Board should be broadly authorized to issue the shares representing the capital increase, in the opportunities it so determines, to be offered preferentially to the shareholders or destined for the compensation plans for the workers of the Company and its affiliates, as corresponds.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



 

 

The shares not subscribed by the shareholders in exercise of the preference option or those whose preference option rights are completely or partially rejected, or those corresponding to fractions resulting from the pro ratio among the shareholders, may be destined by the Board to the mentioned compensation plans for the workers of the Company and its affiliates, as authorized by the fourth paragraph of article 24 of Law 18,046, remaining the Board broadly authorized to determine, in such case, the proportion or percentage of said remnant of shares that may be destined to this effect.

 

He added that the above indicated shares that the Board does not definitively assign to the compensation plans for the workers of the Company and its affiliates, as indicated, may be freely offered to the shareholders or to third parties, in the opportunities and amounts that the Board deems pertinent, remaining broadly authorized to establish the procedures to do so.

 

In any case, the sale of shares to third parties may not be made in conditions and prices more favorable than those of the preference option made to shareholders with such right, notwithstanding what is established by the last paragraph of article 29 of the Corporations Regulations.

 

 

(D)

Term and Method of Payment

 

It was also proposed that the payment of the value of the shares representing the increase in capital be done in cash at the moment of subscription, in cash currency, bank voucher, electronic transfer of funds or any other instrument or effect representative of money paid on sight. Furthermore, it was proposed that the shares should be integrally subscribed and paid in a period of 3 years counted as of the date of the agreement by the Meeting, notwithstanding that contained in article 24 of Law 18,046, for shares affected to compensation plans, with respect to which this term will be 5 years.

 

To these effects, before expiration of the indicated 3 year term, the Board shall establish the number of shares that the shareholders did not subscribe in exercise of their legal preference option, whose preference right option was not accepted in all or in part, or the corresponding fractions produced by the pro rata among shareholders, and determine the portion of the same that shall be assigned to the compensation plans, with respect to which the subscription and payment term will be 5 years.

 

 

(E)

Compensation Plans

 

With respect to the compensation plans mentioned above, mister Bambach proposed that the subscription price of the shares assigned to said plans would be that established by the Board, not being in any case less than the price established for the preference option period of the remaining shares object of this increase in capital. The term to subscribe and pay these share would be extended for five years, as of the date of the present Meeting.

 

It was also proposed to broadly authorize the Board to freely determine all the matters related to the referenced compensation plans, as well as to determine all matters related to the options that form part of said plans, giving compliance to the agreements of this Meeting and that established by law, including the periods during which the options, terms, opportunities and other conditions will be in effect, for their acceptance or exercise, the workers to be benefited with the same, the number of shares object of the offered options, and every other matter related to this.

 

 

(F)
