ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

BUSINESS

Overview

We are one of the leading passenger airlines in Latin America and the main air cargo operator in the region. We currently provide domestic and international passenger services in Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Argentina and Colombia. We carry out our cargo operations through the use of belly space on our passenger flights and dedicated cargo operations using freighter aircraft through our cargo airlines in Chile, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico. In 2007, we initiated a strategy for stimulating demand for air travel in our domestic markets by offering lower-fare options to travelers, lowering our costs and increasing the aircraft utilization rates and efficiency of operations. For more information about our short-haul operations see “—Business of the Company— Passenger Operations—Business Model for Domestic Operations” below.

As of February 28, 2011, we serviced 15 destinations in Chile, 14 destinations in Peru, 4 destinations in Ecuador, 14 destinations in Argentina, 24 destinations in Colombia, 14 destinations in other Latin American countries and the Caribbean, 5 destinations in the United States, 1 destination in Canada, 3 destinations in Europe and 4 destinations in the South Pacific. In addition, as of February 28, 2011, through our various code-share agreements, we offer service to 25 additional destinations in North America, 16 additional destinations in Europe, 25 additional destinations in Latin America and the Caribbean (including Mexico) and 2 destinations in Asia. We provide cargo service to all our passenger destinations and to approximately 20 additional destinations served only by freighter aircraft. We also offer other services, such as ground handling, courier, logistics, and maintenance.

Lan Airlines S.A. is a publicly-held stock corporation (sociedad anónima abierta) incorporated under the laws of Chile. Our principal executive offices are located at Presidente Riesco 5711, 20th floor, Las Condes, Santiago, Chile and our general telephone number at this location is (56-2) 565-2525.

History of the Company

The Chilean government founded Lan Airlines (formerly Lan Chile S.A.) in 1929. Lan Airlines was a government-owned company from 1929 until its incorporation in 1983. Lan Airlines began international service to Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1946, to the United States in 1958 and to Europe in 1970. In 1989, the Chilean government sold 51% of Lan Airlines’ capital stock to Chilean investors and to Scandinavian Airlines System. In 1994, our controlling shareholders together with other major shareholders acquired 98.7% of Lan Airlines’ stock, including the remaining stock held by the Chilean government, in a series of transactions. As of February 28, 2011, the controlling shareholders held 34.01% of our capital stock. For more information about our controlling shareholders, see “Controlling Shareholders” and “Related Party Transactions” under Item 7.

In 1997 LAN was listed on the New York Stock Exchange, becoming the first Latin American airline to trade its ADRs on this financial market.

Since this acquisition of our capital stock in 1994 and the appointment of our current management, we have grown our revenue base and maintained our profitability every year despite significant challenges. Additionally, we have created a comprehensive network across the region by forming, together with local partners, or acquiring, passenger affiliates in Peru, Ecuador, Argentina and Colombia, and cargo affiliates in Brazil, Mexico and Colombia. In early 2004, we changed our corporate image and started using the “LAN” brand in order to better reflect the common values and attributes present in all the companies forming our network. We have complemented our own network with a set of bilateral alliances with carriers such as American Airlines, Iberia and Qantas, and have been a member of the oneworld® alliance since 2000.

Organizational Structure

LAN is a company primarily involved in the transportation of passengers and cargo. Our operations are carried out principally by Lan Airlines and also by a number of different subsidiaries. As of February 28, 2011, in the passenger business we operated through six main airlines: Lan Airlines, Transporte Aéreo S.A. (which does business under the name “Lan Express”), Lan Perú S.A. (“Lan Peru”), Aerolane Líneas Aéreas Nacionales del Ecuador S.A. (“Lan Ecuador”), Lan Argentina S.A. (“Lan Argentina,” previously Aero 2000 S.A.) and the recently acquired Aerovías de Integración Regional, Aires S.A. (“Aires”).

In the passenger business we market our sales primarily under the “LAN” brand, except for Aires, which is working towards being rebranded to “LAN”.  As of February 28, 2011 we held a 99.9% stake in Lan Express through direct and indirect interests, a 70.0% stake in Lan Peru through direct and indirect interests, a 71.9% indirect stake in Lan Ecuador, a 99.0% indirect stake in Lan Argentina and a 94.99% indirect stake in Aires (a Colombian entity which was acquired on November 26, 2010).

Our cargo operations are carried out by a number of companies, including Lan Airlines and Lan Cargo.  As of February 28, 2011, Lan Airlines and Lan Cargo were complemented by the operations of certain related companies, such as Aero Transportes Mas de Carga S.A. de C.V. (“MasAir”), in Mexico, Aerolinhas Brasileiras S.A. (“ABSA”), in Brazil and Linea Aérea Carguera de Colombia S.A. (“Lanco”), in Colombia. As of February 28, 2011, we held a 69.2% stake in MasAir through direct and indirect participations, a 73.3% stake in ABSA through direct and indirect participations, and a 90.0% stake in LANCO through direct and indirect participations.  In the cargo business, we market ourselves primarily under the Lan Cargo brand.

In addition to our air transportation activities, we provide a series of ancillary services. We offer handling services, courier services and logistics, small package and express door-to-door services through Lan Airlines and various subsidiaries.

Proposed Combination with TAM

On August 13, 2010, we jointly announced with TAM that we had entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding relating to the proposed all-stock transaction that would combine the holdings of LAN and TAM under a single parent entity.

On January 18, 2011, we and Costa Verde Aeronáutica and Mineras del Cantábrico (we refer to these entities together as the “LAN controlling shareholders”) entered into an implementation agreement and an exchange offer agreement (we refer to these agreements together as the “transaction agreements”) with TAM S.A., TAM Empreendimentos e Participações S.A. (we refer to this entity as the “TAM controlling shareholder”) and Maria Cláudia Oliveira Amaro, Maurício Rolim Amaro, Noemy Almeida Oliveira Amaro and João Francisco Amaro (we refer to these individuals together as the “Amaro family”), which set forth the terms and conditions of a proposed business combination of LAN and TAM.

On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the transaction agreements (including the minimum conditions discussed in this section below), all or substantially all of the outstanding voting common shares of TAM will be acquired by a new Chilean corporation (which we refer to as “Holdco 1”) and all or substantially all of the outstanding non-voting preferred shares of TAM will be acquired by LAN if the series of transactions and corporate restructurings described below are successfully completed:

· The Amaro family will create a new Chilean corporation (which we refer to as “TEP Chile”) that will be wholly owned by them;

· TEP Chile will acquire and hold at least 80% of the voting stock of Holdco 1, which will have no economic rights in Holdco 1 (other than nominal dividend rights);

· LAN will acquire no more than 20% of the voting stock of Holdco 1;

· LAN will acquire and hold 100% of the non-voting stock of Holdco 1, which will have all of the economic rights in Holdco 1 (other than the nominal dividend rights of the voting stock of Holdco 1);

· Holdco 1 will acquire and hold all or substantially all of the voting common shares of TAM;

· LAN will acquire and hold all or substantially all of the non-voting preferred shares of TAM; and

· LAN, TAM, TEP Chile, Holdco 1 and the LAN controlling shareholders will enter into the shareholder agreements described below under “—Shareholders Agreements,” relating to the holding of shares in, and the governance of, and relationships between, LAN, Holdco 1, TAM and their respective subsidiaries.

Pursuant to and subject to the terms of the transaction agreements, the parties will form a new Chilean corporation (which we refer to as “Holdco 2”) that will commence a delisting exchange offer to acquire all of the voting common shares of TAM and all of the non-voting preferred shares of TAM (in each case other than any such shares owned indirectly by the Amaro family) in exchange for the same number of shares of common stock of Holdco 2 (which we refer to as the “exchange offer”).

At or prior to the completion of the exchange offer:

· the Amaro family will contribute to TEP Chile all of the voting common shares of TAM and non-voting preferred shares of TAM beneficially owned by them;

· TEP Chile will pay nominal consideration for all of the voting shares of Holdco 1 and will contribute all of the voting common shares of TAM it receives from the Amaro family to Holdco 1 in exchange for all of the non-voting shares of Holdco 1;

· TEP Chile will contribute (i) all of the non-voting shares of Holdco 1, (ii) 6.2% of the voting shares of Holdco 1 and (iii) all of the non-voting preferred shares of TAM it receives from the Amaro family to a new Chilean corporation (which we refer to as “Sister Holdco”) in exchange for all of the shares of common stock of Sister Holdco (other than one share held by a nominee of TEP Chile);

· each of Holdco 2 and Sister Holdco will merge with and into LAN (we refer to these mergers together as the “mergers,” and individually as the “Holdco 2 Merger” and the “Sister Holdco Merger,” respectively), with LAN being the surviving company of each such merger; and

· in the mergers, each share of common stock of Holdco 2 and each share of common stock of Sister Holdco will be converted into the right to receive 0.9 of a LAN common share.

As a result of the exchange offer and Holdco 2 merger, each holder of a voting common share of TAM and each holder of a non-voting preferred share of TAM that sells such shares in the exchange offer will ultimately receive 0.9 of a LAN common share for each share they sell.  Similarly, as a result of the foregoing transactions and the Sister Holdco merger, the Amaro family will ultimately receive 0.9 of a LAN common share for each voting common share of TAM and each non-voting preferred share of TAM that they own.

The commencement of the exchange offer is subject to certain conditions set forth in the transaction agreements as described under “Key Information—The Transaction Agreements—Conditions to Commencement of the Exchange Offer,” under Item 4, including receipt of all required regulatory approvals, approval of the proposed combination by the holders of LAN common shares and the condition that the holders of no more than 2.5% of the outstanding LAN common shares exercise their appraisal rights under Chilean law.  The completion of the exchange offer is also subject to certain conditions set forth in the transaction agreements as described under “Key Information—The Transaction Agreements—Conditions to Completion of the Exchange Offer,” under Item 4, including minimum tender conditions and conditions to the Amaro family’s obligation to contribute their TAM shares as described above.  As a result, no assurance can be given that the proposed combination will be completed.

If the proposed combination is completed, then:

· LAN’s common shares will be listed in Brazil on the Bovespa in the form of BDRs;

· LAN’s common shares will continue to be listed in Chile on the SSE and in the United States on the NYSE in the form of ADRs;

· subject to satisfaction of the minimum tender conditions described above, all TAM shares (whether voting common shares or non-voting preferred shares) will be delisted from the from the Bovespa in Brazil and the NYSE in the United States; and

· LAN will change its name to “LATAM Airlines Group S.A.”

On January 28, 2011, in response to a petition filed by a Chilean consumer association, Conadecus, the TDLC, determined to submit the proposed combination between LAN and TAM to a voluntary review procedure that is available under the Chilean antitrust laws upon the request of the Fiscalía Nacional Económica or someone with a legitimate interest. This voluntary review procedure could delay the implementation of the proposed combination because LAN and TAM cannot complete the proposed combination until the TDLC renders its final decision at the end of this process. On April 5, 2011, LAN, together with TAM, submitted a presentation in support the proposed combination.

On March 1, 2011, the Brazilian Agencia Nacional de Aviçao Civil (the Brazilian National Civil Aviation Agency or “ANAC”) authorized the transfers of the shares of TAM and its subsidiairies that are necessary to implement the proposed combination.  However, the proposed combination remains subject to other regulatory and shareholder approvals.

Competitive Strengths

Our strategy is to maximize shareholder value by increasing revenues and profitability through leveraging the operational efficiencies between our cargo and passenger divisions, thoroughly planning for our expansion efforts and carefully controlling costs. We plan to accomplish these goals by both focusing on our existing competitive strengths and implementing new strategies to fuel our future growth. We believe our most important competitive strengths are:

Leading Presence in Key South American Markets

We are one of the main international and domestic passenger airlines in Latin America, as well as the largest cargo operator in Chile and most of the South American markets that we serve. We hold the largest market share of passenger traffic to and from Chile, Peru and Ecuador, as well as the largest market share of domestic passenger traffic in both Chile and Peru. More recently, we have also achieved a solid and growing position in the Argentine domestic market through Lan Argentina and in the Argentine international market through Lan Argentina and our other passenger airlines. We are also strengthening our presence in the Ecuadorian market, where we began domestic passenger operations on April 6, 2009. We entered the Colombian domestic and international market through the acquisition of Aires on November 26, 2010. We are also the leading air cargo operator within, to and from South America, and we are consolidating our leadership through new cargo operations in Colombia and in the Brazilian domestic market, as well as through an increased presence in routes between South America and Europe. Our international and domestic passenger and cargo operations have increased substantially over the past four years in terms of capacity, traffic and revenue. Between 2005 and 2010, our passenger capacity grew 78.8% and our cargo capacity grew 28.2%.

Diversified Revenue Base from both Passenger and Cargo Operations

We believe that one of our distinct competitive advantages is our ability to profitably integrate our scheduled passenger and cargo operations. We take into account potential cargo services when planning passenger routes, and also serve certain dedicated cargo routes using our freight aircraft, when needed. By adding cargo revenues to our existing passenger service, we are able to increase the productivity of our assets and maximize revenue, which has historically covered fixed operating expenses per flight, lowered break-even load factors and enhanced per flight profitability. Additionally, this revenue diversification helps offset seasonal revenue fluctuations and reduces the volatility of our business over time. As of December 2010, passenger revenues accounted for 68.8% of total revenues and cargo revenues accounted for 28.3% of total revenues.

Attractive Cost Structure with High Utilization of our Assets and Productive Personnel

We believe that we have a highly competitive cost structure with a cost per ATK of 43.6 cents in 2010. Our cost advantage arises mainly from our productive and committed employees, high aircraft utilization, modern and fuel-efficient fleet and cost-conscious culture. Our wages and labor costs accounted for approximately 20.4% of total costs in 2010, which we believe is a lower percentage than that of many other U.S. and European carriers.

Furthermore, our itineraries and aircraft rotations are designed to maximize aircraft utilization. During 2010, our long-haul aircraft (Boeing 767-300 passenger and Airbus A340-300s) operated an average of approximately fourteen hours per day. We also implemented a new business model for short-haul operations in 2007; as a result, by the end of 2010 we increased the utilization of our narrow body aircraft to reach 9.5 hours per day.  In May 2008, we completed the phase out of the Boeing B737-200 from our fleet.  Our short haul fleet is now entirely composed of Airbus A320-Family Aircraft with the exception of the recently acquired Aires fleet.

In addition, during 2009 we continued with the implementation of LEAN, a system that seeks to improve our processes by eliminating activities that do not add value (thus increasing the value of each activity and suppressing those that are superfluous), which reduces costs, improves efficiency and increases customer satisfaction. The adoption of this system constituted a redesigning of processes that permits solving problems that may occur during the execution of any process, such as aircraft maintenance. The foregoing renders the daily tasks and processes carried out within the Company more efficient. Due to its implementation, during 2010 we achieved a 30% reduction in the time that an aircraft remains in the hangar and we were also able to reduce the period needed to install winglets from 58 to 18 days.  LEAN also allowed us in 2011 to support the Company’s high growth, by streamlining the pilot training process, which resulted in more pilots trained during that year.  Finally, it allowed the Company to reduce CO2 emissions, by redesigning processes in various areas that result in fuel consumption. In addition, by establishing clear roles, challenges and achievements, the implementation of LEAN has had an important benefit in terms of employee motivation. See Item 4. “Information on the Company—Business of the Company—Maintenance.”

Strong Brand Teamed with Key Global Strategic Alliances

In March 2004 we launched the “LAN” brand, under which we operate all of our international passenger airlines (except for Aires, which is working towards being rebranded to “LAN”).  Brand uniformity enables our customers to better identify us with the high standards of service and safety that are common to all of our airlines. This corporate image has also improved the cost effectiveness and efficiency of our marketing efforts as we continue to expand in our existing and new markets. Additionally, LAN and our entire passenger affiliates (with the exception of Aires) are a member of the oneworld® alliance. We have also entered into bilateral agreements with strategic partners such as American Airlines, Iberia and Qantas, among others, whose leading presence in their respective markets creates a truly global reach for our passengers. Our passenger alliances and commercial agreements provide our customers with approximately 750 travel destinations, a combined reservations system, itinerary flexibility and various other benefits, which substantially enhance our competitive position within the Latin American market.

Optimized Fleet Strategy

We make optimal use of our fleet structure through a combination of minimal aircraft types, modern aircraft and staggered lease maturities. We carefully select our aircraft based on their ability to effectively and efficiently serve our short- and long-haul flight needs, while still striving to minimize the number of aircraft types we operate. For short-haul flights we operate the Airbus A320-Family Aircraft and the recently acquired Aires fleet in the Colombian market.  As of May 18, 2008, we stopped using Boeing 737-200 aircraft in our Chilean domestic operations. For long-haul passenger flights we operate the Boeing 767-300 passenger aircraft and for long-haul cargo flights we operate the Boeing 767-300 Freighters. For ultra long-haul service, such as between Santiago and Madrid and between Santiago and Auckland, we use the Airbus A340-300 aircraft. Having a fleet with minimal aircraft types reduces inventory costs, as fewer spare parts are required, and reduces the need to train our pilots to operate different types of aircraft.  LAN’s strategic fleet renewal plan involves the sale of five Airbus A318 aircraft in 2011, five in 2012 and five in 2013.

The average age of our fleet as of February 28, 2011 was 6.1 years (excluding the recently acquired Aires fleet), making our fleet one of the most modern in Latin America. The phasing out of our Boeing 737-200s, our oldest aircraft, which was completed in May 2008, contributed to reducing the average age of our fleet. Additionally, we expect that our purchase of additional aircraft, to be delivered between 2011 and 2018 will further reduce the average age of our fleet. Having a younger fleet makes us more cost competitive because it reduces fuel consumption and maintenance costs, and enables us to enjoy a high degree of performance reliability. In addition, a modern and fuel efficient fleet reflects our strong commitment to the environment as new aircraft incorporate the industry’s latest technology, allowing for a substantial reduction in emissions, while also decreasing noise levels.

Additionally, our leased fleet is structured with staggered lease maturities over time to create the strategic flexibility to expand or reduce capacity according to market conditions. We believe that our aircraft and the flexibility of our fleet allow us to maximize aircraft utilization by adapting rapidly to changes in passenger and cargo demand in the markets that we serve.

Strong Financial Position with Track Record of Growth and Profitability

We have historically managed our business to maintain financial flexibility and a strong balance sheet in order to accommodate our growth objectives while being able to respond to changing market conditions. We are one of the few investment-grade rated airlines in the world and we maintained this status during 2010. We have built our strong financial position by preserving our financial liquidity and continuing to structure long-term financing for newly acquired aircraft. Our financial flexibility has allowed us to secure large aircraft orders, including an important part of our current re-fleeting program at attractive financing rates.  We also monitor and seek opportunities to reduce financial risks associated with currency, interest rate and jet fuel price fluctuations. Over the last five years, while much of the airline industry has faced significant competitive and liquidity crises, we have remained consistently profitable.

Business Strategy

The principal areas in which we plan to focus our efforts going forward are as follows:

Continue to Grow Both our Passenger and Cargo Networks

We currently intend to continue to expand our capacity over the next several years to accommodate robust long-term growth in both passenger and cargo demand in the markets we target. We plan on expanding our operations not only in the markets we currently serve but also into new South American markets where we believe demand exists for our combination of passenger and cargo services. To meet this growth,

· as of February 28, 2011, we had an order book of 82 latest generation Airbus A320-Family Aircraft to be delivered between 2011 and 2016 and nine Boeing 767-300 wide body passenger aircraft to be delivered between 2011 and 2012;

· as of February 28, 2011, we had orders for two Boeing 777-200 Freighter aircraft to be delivered in 2012; and

· we also have outstanding orders for 32 Boeing 787 Dreamliner passenger aircraft, currently expected to start to be delivered in 2012.

We will continue to leverage the benefits of combining our passenger and cargo operations. Our passenger and cargo operations are equally important aspects of our business, and we dedicate the necessary resources, employees, facilities, management and fleet to enable both operations to provide high-quality service and to compete effectively in their respective markets.

Enhance the Profitability of our Short-Haul Operations

We plan to continue implementing the business model launched in 2007 to increase the efficiency of our domestic and short-haul operations, specifically in the domestic markets in Chile and Peru. This model is also being applied in the domestic markets in Ecuador and Argentina, as well as in our recently acquired passenger operations in Colombia. In Argentina, the implementation of the model is subject to certain regulatory restrictions as a result of the fare bands in place in the Argentinean domestic market. In addition, we are evaluating the application of these initiatives on certain regional routes within Latin America. A key objective of this program has been to increase the utilization of our fleet through modified itineraries that include more point-to-point and overnight flights and faster turnaround times. Our Boeing 737-200 fleet was completely phased out in May 2008 in favor of the new Airbus A320-Family Aircraft, which we currently operate on all domestic and regional routes except those served by Aires.  These initiatives have increased efficiency and improved the margins of our short-haul operations. In addition, our modern fleet allows for lower unscheduled maintenance costs, lower fuel consumption, and operational and cost efficiencies achieved through operating fewer fleet types. Other key objectives of this business model include a reduction in sales and distribution costs through increased Internet penetration, reduced agency commissions, and increased self check-in service through web check-in and airport kiosks. We expect that these initiatives, together with simplifications in back-office and support functions, will continue to help us expand operations while controlling fixed costs, spurring a reduction in overhead costs per ASK. We have begun to pass on a portion of these operating efficiencies to consumers through fare reductions, which has stimulated additional demand and enhanced our overall profitability.

Maintain Excellent Customer Satisfaction

In both our passenger and cargo businesses, we focus on delivering high quality services that are valued by our customers. In our passenger businesses we strive to achieve high on-time performance, world-class on-board service on long-haul flights, attractive and convenient pricing and quick check-in for short-haul flights, and the comfort afforded by a modern fleet. During the first half of 2009 we completed the reconfiguration of the cabins of all our long-haul aircraft, including both the Boeing 767 and the Airbus A340 passenger aircraft, in order to incorporate our new Premium Business Class including full-flat seats, as well as improvements in economy class which include a state-of-the-art on-board entertainment system. Our frequent flyer program, LANPASS, provides travel benefits and rewards to almost 4.3 million loyal customers in Chile, Argentina, Peru and Ecuador as well as in other countries where we operate. In the cargo business, we focus on providing reliable service, taking advantage of our ability to handle different types of cargo as well as significant cargo volumes, and leveraging our facilities in key gateways, such as Miami, to ensure optimal handling of our customers’ needs. We continually assess opportunities to incorporate service improvements in order to respond effectively to our customers’ needs.

Continued Emphasis on Safety

Our top priority is safety, and we have structured our operations and maintenance to focus on safe flying. Our main maintenance facilities are certified by the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”), DGAC and other civil aviation authorities. Our flight and maintenance safety procedures are certified under ISO 9001-2000 standards. We have programs in place to train our crews and mechanics to world-class standards both at facilities abroad or at our training centers, which we have developed in association with high-quality partners.

Focus on Efficiency and Sustainability

We are increasingly concerned with improving efficiency through a series of fleet initiatives that seek to reduce fuel consumption. The most significant is our ongoing fleet renewal and growth plan, through which we expect to incorporate 125 new aircraft between 2011and 2018. As an example, we estimate that the Boeing 787 Dreamliner operates with costs per ASK that are approximately 12% lower than other long haul passenger aircraft, while the new Boeing 777 freighter is approximately 17% more efficient in terms of costs per ASK than the Boeing 767 freighter. In addition, during the second half of 2010 we finalized the installation of winglets on all of our Boeing 767 aircraft, achieving fuel efficiencies of approximately 5% per aircraft. In order to mitigate the environmental impact of our operations we seek to operate in a sustainable manner by reducing our fuel consumption and related emissions. We also continue to focus on adjusting the configuration of our aircraft to market demand by, for example, adjusting the configuration of four Boeing 767s that operate on long-haul routes from Ecuador by reducing the number of Premium Business seats and increasing the number of Economy class seats.   Other long-term projects that aim at improving our cost structure include implementing the LEAN operating processes in our maintenance operations, as well as investing in new inventory and reservations systems provided by Sabre.

International Passenger Operations

As of February 28, 2011, we operated scheduled international services from Chile, Peru, Ecuador and Argentina through Lan Airlines; Lan Express in Chile; Lan Peru in Peru; Lan Ecuador in Ecuador; Lan Argentina in Argentina and Aires in Colombia. International passenger traffic has grown significantly in the past couple of years due to demand growth, market share gains, increased connecting traffic to and from other Latin American countries, the launch of new routes and additional frequencies on existing routes, and expansion into new markets.

Our international network combines our Chilean, Peruvian, Ecuadorian, Argentinean and Colombian affiliates. We have operated international services out of Chile since 1946, and we greatly expanded our flights out of Peru with the creation of Lan Peru in 1999 and out of Ecuador through Lan Ecuador in 2003. In August 2006, we expanded our international operations through Lan Argentina, which until then had only been offering domestic flights. The international operations of Aires, however, are being reduced since its acquisition in 2010. This strategy to generally expand our international network is aimed at enhancing our value proposition by offering customers more destinations and routing alternatives, maximizing aircraft utilization, increasing load factors, leveraging complementary seasonal patterns, and optimizing our commercial efforts. We provide long-haul services out of our four main hubs in Santiago, Lima, Guayaquil and Buenos Aires.  We also provide regional services from Chile, Peru, Ecuador and Argentina. Since 2004, we have grown our intra-Latin American operations out of Lima to position it as our main regional hub.

In line with our long-standing commitment to provide customers with superior service and the best products on the market, in May 2009 LAN completed the retrofit of all its long-haul fleet (including its Boeing 767 and Airbus A340 passenger aircraft) with the new Premium Business class and improved Economy class. Combining the best features of the traditional First and Business classes, the new Premium Business includes 180 degrees recline full-flat seats which allow passengers to sleep with the maximum comfort and privacy. Premium Business also includes top-level personalized in-flight service. Changes in Economy class include new seats with a greater recline angle, a cushion that slides forward for increased comfort and convenience, and larger individual video monitors for each seat.

LAN’s sustained development of its coverage has been a crucial factor in its growth and 2010 was no exception. New routes were added along with flight increases in some key existing routes in order to offer more and better alternatives to both business and tourist travelers. In 2010, the Company continued to consolidate its hub in Lima, which serves as the center of its Latin American network and also complements its intercontinental network, by opening new routes and increasing flights on existing routes.

As part of its mission, LAN seeks to promote tourism to South America. Due to its large network of services, visitors from around the world can experience world renowned destinations such as Cusco, Easter Island, the Galapagos Islands, or Patagonia in Chile and Argentina, including the cities of Punta Arenas, Ushuaia, El Calafate and Bariloche.

According to JAC data, Chilean international air passenger traffic increased 9.4% from 2009 to 2010 approximately 5.1 million passengers. We had a 52.8% market share in 2010, based on RPKs, compared to 52.4% in 2009. Our international operations out of Chile can be divided into four main segments, to: North America, Europe, the rest of Latin America, and the Pacific. As of February 28, 2011, the other principal carriers that transported passengers between Chile and North America with direct flights included American Airlines, Delta Airlines, Air Canada and Aeromexico. TACA and COPA also participated in the Chile-North American markets with stopovers in their respective Central American hubs. Our main competitors on routes between Chile and Europe were Air France-KLM and Iberia. On regional routes our main competitors were Aerolineas Argentinas, Air Canada, Avianca, GOL, TACA and TAM. We were the only airline operating between Chile and the South Pacific during this time.

Based on the information provided by the Peruvian DGAC, we flew approximately 5.0 million passengers on international flights to and from Peru in 2010. That year, we had 45.4% of the international market share in Peru, which was an increase from our 41.7% market share in 2009. Our Peruvian international operations can be divided into three main segments, based on the destination: North America, Europe and the rest of Latin America. As of February 28, 2011, our main competitors on direct routes to North America included American Airlines, Continental Airlines, Delta Airlines, Spirit Airlines, Air Canada and Aeromexico. TACA and COPA also participated in the Peru-North American markets with stopovers in their respective Central American hubs. On routes to Europe, our main competitors were Iberia, Air Europa and Air France-KLM. The other principal carriers operating between Peru and the rest of Latin America as of that date included Aerolineas Argentinas, TACA, TAM, Avianca and GOL.

The Ecuadorian international market increased 4.1% to approximately 2.8 million passengers between 2009 and 2010. According to travel agency statistics (“BSP”) and our estimates, we had a 28.9% market share of the Ecuadorian international market in 2010 compared to 24.5% in 2009. Our Ecuadorian international operations can be divided into three main segments, to: North America, Europe and the rest of Latin America. As of February 28, 2011, on direct routes to North America, our main competitors were American Airlines, Continental Airlines, Delta Airlines and Aerogal. TACA and COPA also participate in the Ecuador-North American markets with stopovers in their respective Central American hubs. On routes to Europe, our main competitors were Air Comet, Iberia, and Air France-KLM. On regional routes, our main competitors were TACA, COPA and Avianca.

Based on our internal estimates, the Argentinean international market increased 18.0% to approximately 9.1 million passengers between 2009 and 2010. Our estimated market share of the Argentinean international market was 16.5% in 2010 compared to 17.3% in 2009. Our Argentinean international operations can be divided into two main segments, based on destination to: North America and the rest of Latin America. As of February 28, 2011, on the Buenos Aires-Miami route, our main competitors were American Airlines and Aerolíneas Argentinas. TAM, TACA and COPA also participated in the Argentina-North American markets with stopovers in their respective hubs. On the Buenos Aires-Dominican Republic route, our main competitors were COPA and American Airlines. On the Buenos Aires-Sao Paulo route, our main competitors were TAM, GOL and Aerolíneas Argentinas. On the Buenos Aires-Lima route, our main competitors were TACA and Aerolíneas Argentinas. On the Buenos Aires-Santiago route, our main competitors were Aerolíneas Argentinas and Air Canada.

Business Model for Domestic Operations

In 2007 we initiated an important project to redesign our domestic business operations with the goal of increasing efficiency and improving the margins of LAN’s short-haul operations, specifically with respect to our domestic operations in Chile and Peru.  The new business model was first tested in the last quarter of 2006. A key element of this project has been to significantly increase the utilization of our narrow body fleet, which we have been successfully achieving through modified itineraries including more point-to-point and overnight flights. We removed the Boeing 737-200 aircraft from our fleet in favor of the new more efficient Airbus A320-Family Aircraft. The Airbus A320-Family Aircraft fleet utilization reached approximately 10.9 block hours per day in 2010. The transition to a newer fleet allows for lower unscheduled maintenance costs as well as cost efficiencies achieved through operating fewer fleet types and operational efficiencies, including lower fuel consumption.

Other key elements of our new business model are the reduction in sales and distribution costs through higher Internet penetration and reduced agency commissions, a faster turnaround time, and increased self-check-in service through web check-in and kiosks at airports. These initiatives, together with simplifications in back-office and support functions, will continue to allow us to expand operations while controlling fixed costs, spurring a reduction in overhead costs. We have begun to pass on these operating efficiencies to consumers through significant fare reductions, which we expect will have a strong effect of stimulating new demand.

In 2007, we implemented all aspects of this new business model in the Chilean and Peruvian domestic markets. We launched our new short-haul business model on all domestic routes in Chile in April 2007, after a marketing campaign that began in March 2007. We launched the new model in all domestic Peruvian routes in January 2007.

As a result of the implementation of this model, we increased the number of passengers transported in all domestic markets. Between 2006 and 2010, the number of passengers transported increased significantly:

· 83% (from 2.5 million to 4.6 million) in Chile,

· 123% (from 1.7 million to 3.8 million) in Peru,

· 200% (from 0.6 million to 1.9 million) in Argentina, and

· with a minor effect in Ecuador as we just started domestic operations during 2009.

Over the past three years we have sustained constant growth in each of our domestic passenger operations, and between 2009 and 2010 we achieved an increase in domestic transported passengers at 13%.

On November 26, 2010, LAN acquired Colombian airline Aerovías de Integración Regional S.A. (“Aires”) for US$12 million in cash, in addition to assuming net liabilities of US$87 million.  The Colombian market is the second largest market in South America with over 13 million annual domestic passengers and represents a key market in LAN’s consolidation as a leading airline within the region.  Aires is currently the second largest operator in Colombia’s domestic market with approximately a 20% market share as of December 2010.  The Aires fleet consists of 9 B737-700s, 11 Q200 and 4 Q400, all of which are operating leases.

We plan to continue with the implementation of this business model during 2011 and we are evaluating its implementation in some regional routes, as we look for ways to increase operational efficiency, encourage direct sales and self check-in, and implement new sales strategies aimed at stimulating demand.

Operations within Chile

Through Lan Airlines and Lan Express we are the leading domestic passenger airline in Chile. We have operated domestic flights in Chile since the Company’s creation in 1929. As of February 28, 2011, we flew to 13 destinations within Chile (including Santiago, but not including Easter Island, which we consider an international destination even though it is a part of Chile, because we serve it with long-haul aircraft) as well as some seasonal destinations. Lan Airlines and Lan Express have integrated passenger operations, including operations under the same two-letter “designator reservation code,” and have coordinated fare structures, scheduling and other commercial matters in order to maximize cooperative benefits and revenues for the two carriers. Our strategy is based on providing frequent service to Chile’s main destinations, offering a reliable and high quality service, and leveraging our strong brand position in Chile and abroad. We evaluate our network of domestic routes on an ongoing basis in order to achieve optimal operational efficiency and profitability. Our strategic objective is to maintain our leadership position in our domestic routes.

LAN’s flexibility and broad passenger network also allowed us to manage the negative impact of the catastrophic earthquake that struck Chile in February 2010, causing significant damage to the terminal building at the Santiago International Airport and affecting all air travel in and out of the country. With no alternative airport in the Santiago Metropolitan Region, commercial passenger operations were suspended for three days, and were re-launched on March 2, 2010 with provisional facilities. LAN operated with reduced capacity out of Santiago until the terminal building was fully operational on March 28, 2010. LAN estimates the net impact of decreased passenger operations due to the earthquake were approximately US$30 million in 2010. Cargo operations were not materially affected by the earthquake, nor were the passenger operations of LAN or its subsidiaries in Peru, Ecuador and Argentina.

During 2010 we operated an average fleet of 18 Airbus A320-Family Aircraft in the Chilean domestic market, and we plan to operate an average fleet of 21 Airbus A320-Family Aircraft in 2011. Domestic operations in Chile were positively affected by the greater utilization of the latest-generation Airbus fleet and the retirement of the Boeing 737-200s. The new business model was launched nationwide within Chile in April 2007. We reduced sales costs by increasing direct sales from 78% in 2009 to 80% in 2010 (with 63% of our 2010 sales done through the Internet) and by reducing agency commissions from 6% to 1% in February 2007. We also increased fleet utilization, crew productivity and the average flight leg through schedule changes. Additionally, we simplified our processes, which helped to increase the self check-in rate from 77% in 2009 to 80% in 2010. Finally, we utilized the greater efficiency of the Airbus aircraft to reach operational efficiencies such as reducing the turn-around time, increasing our punctuality (which reached 94% in 2009 and 87% in 2010) and lowering fuel consumption. As of February 28, 2011, we operated 100% of our ASKs with our Airbus A320-Family Aircraft fleet

According to JAC data, the Chilean domestic market as a whole transported approximately 6.0 million passengers in 2010 and it had an increase of 17% in terms of RPK. Our domestic market share in Chile was 78.4% for 2010 and 79% as of January 31, 2011. During 2010, our main competitors in the domestic market were Sky Airlines and PAL Airlines, which began operations in June 2009. Sky Airlines currently operates a fleet of 13 Boeing 737-200 aircraft and flies to12 destinations. PAL Airlines currently operates a fleet of 4 Boeing 737-200 aircraft and flies to 5 destinations.

There are currently no foreign airlines participating in the Chilean domestic market. Chile permits foreign airlines to operate in Chile if the airline’s home country gives similar treatment to Chilean airlines. Additionally, there are no regulatory barriers that prevent a foreign airline from creating a Chilean subsidiary and entering the Chilean domestic market using that subsidiary.

Operations within Peru

Lan Peru started operations in 1999 with domestic and international flights from Lima. During the past ten years, Lan Peru has expanded consistently, consolidating its domestic operations and coverage of relevant markets.

Regarding the domestic market, Peru has tremendous potential compared to other Latin American markets based on per capita travel ratios.  In 2010 the domestic market reached 5.0 million passengers and 6.4 million passengers are expected for 2011.

LAN Peru has one of the most modern fleets in Latin America, operating 19 Airbus A319 aircraft, with twelve for domestic operations and seven for regional operations.  This fleet is ideal for Peruvian routes, as it maximizes available payload in high-altitude airports with tail wind conditions. This uniform fleet also allows for low maintenance costs, high crew productivity and operational flexibility.

Compared to 2009, Lan Peru’s domestic operations in Peru showed an expansion of 8.9% during 2010, due to an increase in the number of flights to existing destinations. According to data provided by the Corporación Peruana de Aeropuertos y Aviación Comercial S.A. (the Peruvian Airport and Commercial Aviation Corporation, or “CORPAC”), our domestic market share in Peru was 62% for 2007, 73% for 2008, 80% for 2009 and 70% for 2010.

A total of 3,836,134 passengers traveled on LAN Peru’s domestic Peruvian routes in 2010, which represented an increase of 13% compared to 2009. As of February 28, 2011, competitors included Star Peru, Peruvian Airlines and TACA (which has increased its operations in the domestic market by adding new frequencies to Cusco, Juliaca, Tarapoto and Trujillo).

LAN Peru expects to increase the connections between cities within the country.  Cusco, the country’s most important tourist destination, accounts for most of LAN Peru’s domestic operations and is served by 16 (and even 21 during certain periods) flights each day. LAN Peru flies at least two times daily to each of its 13 destinations from Lima with Tumbes as an exception (10 flights a week).

Regarding airport services, LAN Peru has over 141 domestic daily arrivals and departures.  Self-check in levels have grown steadily in the past years, reaching 83% for domestic routes at the end of 2010.

In 2010, LAN Peru was awarded the “Gran Marca Moderna” by the Effie Awards (a Marketing Hall of Fame distinction), and was the first airline in the country to receive this honor.

Operations within Argentina

Lan Argentina initiated services in June 2005, covering two Argentine domestic destinations from Buenos Aires, Cordoba and Mendoza. Between 2005 and 2007, Lan Argentina increased the number of Argentine domestic destinations to nine adding Bariloche, Iguazu, Comodoro Rivadavia, Rio Gallegos, Ushuaia, Calafate and Salta. In June 2008, Lan Argentina initiated services to Neuquen and in September 2008 to San Juan. In April 2009, Lan Argentina initiated services to Tucuman.

From June to November 2006, Lan Argentina replaced its Boeing B737-200 fleet, which consisted of five aircraft, four of which were Airbus A320 aircraft. We use these aircraft in both domestic and regional operations. The replacement of these aircraft enabled Lan Argentina to increase the scope, size and efficiency of its operations. By the end of December 2010, we operated a fleet of eight Airbus A320 aircraft in our domestic operations.

In the domestic Argentine market, Lan Argentina operates in a regulated environment in which fares sold to Argentine passengers are subject to minimum and maximum prices that vary per route. In August 2006, by presidential decree, both the floor and ceiling of the regulated price range were increased by 20%. The decree liberalized foreign ownership of Argentinean airlines, previously capped at 49%. Since this decree, the floor and ceiling of the regulated price range have been consistently increased as follows:  by 18% in April 2008, by 18% in May 2008, by 20% in 2009, by 15% in June 2010 and by 10% in November 2010.

Our domestic market share in Argentina, based on our internal estimates for December 2010 amounted to 30%. Our competitors in the Argentinean market during 2010 were Aerolíneas Argentinas and its affiliate Austral Líneas Aéreas. Together, these two companies held substantially the entire remaining share of the domestic Argentine market.

Operations within Ecuador

At the end of 2008, the Civil Aviation National Board authorized us to operate domestic flights in Ecuador. In April 2009, we initiated the operations between Quito and Guayaquil.

In December 2009, LAN Ecuador operated 49 weekly flights between Quito and Guayaquil, one of Latin America’s major routes. The company also began daily flights between Cuenca and Quito. As of February 28, 2011, LAN Ecuador operated 63 flights between Quito and Guayaquil. In September 2010, the company incorporated daily flights to the Galapagos Islands.

In 2010, LAN Ecuador transported 623,104 passengers in the domestic passenger market, achieving a load factor of 75% with a growth of 70% in passengers in respect with 2009 and a national market of 25%.

In Ecuador, the company’s principal competitors are TAME, Aerogal and Icaro.

Operations within Colombia (Acquisition of AIRES)

On November 26, 2010, LAN acquired Colombian airline Aerovías de Integración Regional S.A., (“Aires”) for US$12 million in cash, in addition to assuming net liabilities of US$87 million. The Colombian market is the second largest market in South America with over 13 million annual domestic passengers and represents a key market in LAN’s consolidation as a leading airline within the region.  Aires is currently the second largest operator in Colombia’s domestic market with approximately a 20% market share as of December 2010.  The Aires fleet consists of 9 B737-700s, 11 Q200 and 4 Q400, all of which are operating leases.

The company will replicate LAN’s “low cost” model already operating in the domestic markets of Argentina, Chile, Ecuador and Peru, stimulating demand on domestic flights by providing more Colombian citizens the opportunity to use air transportation.  In the medium term, Aires will evaluate the expansion of international passenger operations and the advantages of any synergies it may obtain from LAN Cargo’s affiliate in Colombia, Lanco, launched in March 2009.

LAN will dedicate its maximum efforts to ensure that the safety, on time performance and service quality standards of its new affiliate are consistent with LAN’s own high standards.  The integration process may involve certain operational changes such as itinerary modifications and efficiency improvements.  This process will not interfere with the continuity of current operations of Aires.

Prior to the acquisition of Aires, since May 6, 2010, LAN had an agreement to provide technical support and service consultancy to Colombian airline Aeroasis S.A. (“Aeroasis”) while Aeroasis completed the process of obtaining an operating permit from the Colombian civil aviation authority (Unidad Administrativa Especial de Aeronáutica Civil), within the established deadline of February 2011. This process included the hiring of personnel and development of technical materials, as well as the selection and acquisition of equipment, all in compliance with the applicable legal and regulatory frameworks. On February, 2011 LAN acquired the parent companies of Aeroasis with the purpose to merge with Aires operations.

Passenger Alliances and Commercial Agreements

The following are our passenger alliances and partnerships as of February 28, 2011:

· oneworld®. In June 2000, Lan Airlines and Lan Peru were officially incorporated into the oneworld® alliance along with Aer Lingus. At the time, oneworld® was a global marketing alliance consisting of American Airlines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific Airlines, Qantas, Iberia and Finnair, that, among other benefits, offered improved service to its customers. In April 2007, JAL from Japan, Royal Jordanian from Jordan and Malev from Hungary, together with Lan Ecuador and Lan Argentina, joined the alliance, while AerLingus withdrew from the alliance. In November 2009, Mexicana joined the alliance. In November 2010, S7 Airlines joined oneworld® adding 55 destinations in Russia to the alliance.  Last November 2010, S7 Airlines joined oneworld® adding 55 destinations in Russia to the alliance.  Together, these airlines are able to offer customers travel advantages, such as approximately 750 worldwide destinations, schedule flexibility and reciprocal frequent flyer program benefits. Additionally, oneworld® is the first alliance to deploy full interline e-ticketing between its partners.

· American Airlines. Since 1997, Lan Airlines has had an agreement with American Airlines, which enables Lan Airlines and American Airlines to share carrier codes for certain flights on global reservations systems, thereby enabling American Airlines passengers to purchase seats on Lan Airlines flights and vice-versa. The Department of Transportation, or DOT, granted antitrust immunity to our arrangement with American Airlines in October 1999. The antitrust immunity encompasses cooperation in commercial and operational areas such as pricing, scheduling, joint marketing efforts and reductions of airport and purchasing costs, as well as further implementation of cargo synergies in areas such as handling and other airport services. For more information see “—Regulation—U.S. Aeronautical Regulation—Regulatory Authorizations in Connection With Strategic Alliances” below. Through this alliance, we currently offer service to thirty additional destinations in the United States and Canada. In 2005, the DOT granted antitrust immunity to a similar agreement between Lan Peru and American Airlines. This antitrust immunity allows enhanced coordination between Lan Peru and American Airlines, and both companies established in 2007 code-share operations between Peru and the U.S. with additional destinations in both countries.

· Iberia. In January 2001, Lan Airlines initiated a code-share agreement with Iberia, pursuant to which we offer passengers between ten and fourteen non-stop frequencies per week between Santiago and Madrid. In subsequent years, other destinations were added to the agreement, such as Alicante, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Bilbao, Brussels, London (Heathrow), Malaga, Milan, Paris, Rome and Zurich. In 2007, Lan Ecuador and Lan Peru set up code-share agreements with Iberia for routes between Ecuador, Peru and Spain; as well as four additional European destinations with Lan Peru and seven destinations with Lan Ecuador.

· Qantas. In July 2002, Lan Airlines initiated a code-share agreement with Qantas to operate between Santiago, Chile and Sydney, Australia with a stopover in Auckland, New Zealand. As of February 28, 2011, this code-share agreement includes daily flights operated by Lan Airlines.

· British Airways. In 2007, Lan Airlines initiated a code-share agreement with British Airways on Lan Airlines flights between Sao Paulo and Santiago to provide service for British Airways passengers traveling from London to Santiago through a connection in Sao Paulo. This code-share agreement also includes British Airways’ flights between Madrid and London.

· Aeromexico. In 2004, we expanded our previous alliance with Aeromexico. The new agreement includes all of our passenger airlines. Under this alliance, we code-share in flights to Mexico from Chile and Peru, as well as to eighteen domestic destinations in Mexico. Additionally, it provides our passengers with benefits such as easier connections and reciprocal accrual and redemption of frequent flyer program rewards.

· TAM. In 2007, Lan Airlines and Lan Peru, established regional code-share agreements with TAM Linhas Aéreas. Through this agreement, LAN offers twelve additional destinations in Brazil. LAN also code shares with Transportes Aéreos del Mercosur S.A. (“TAM Mercosur”) with respect to flights from Santiago to Asunción, Paraguay, that are operated by TAM Mercosur. These arrangements provide our passengers with reciprocal accrual and redemption of frequent flyer program rewards. In 2008, Lan Argentina established a code-share agreement with TAM from Buenos Aires to Sao Paulo and vice versa, which includes eight domestic destinations in Argentina and twelve domestic destinations in Brazil.

· Cathay Pacific. In May 2010, Lan Airlines initiated a code-share agreement with Cathay Pacific to operate between Santiago, Chile and Hong Kong, China, through connections in Los Angeles, California, New York and Auckland, and in November 2010, Lan Peru initiated a code-share agreement with Cathay Pacific to operate between Lima, Peru and Hong Kong, China, through connections in Los Angeles and San Francisco.

· Jetstar Airways. In November 2010, LAN signed an Interline Agreement and a Special Prorate Agreement with Jetstar Airways in order to broaden the destinations offered to LAN’s customers, particularly in the domestic markets of New Zealand, Australia, and South East Asia.

· JetBlue. During March 2011, LAN signed an Interline Agreement and a Special Prorate Agreement with JetBlue increasing the connection opportunities between New York and Boston, Washington, Chicago, Pittsburgh and many other US cities through JetBlue’s HUB in JFK.

· Other alliances and partnerships: Since 2005, we have had a code-share agreement with Korean Air. Under this agreement we place our code on Korean Air flights between Los Angeles and Seoul, while Korean Air places its code on our flights from Los Angeles to Santiago. In 2004, LAN and Mexicana signed a frequent flyer program that allows for reciprocal accrual and allowance of frequent flyer benefits. Since 1999, Lan Airlines has been in an alliance with Alaska Airlines, which permits us to provide customers with service between Chile and three destinations in the west coast of the U.S. and Canada. Reciprocal accrual and redemption of frequent flyer program rewards is also available for LAN customers flying on Alaska Airlines flights and vice versa.

Passenger Marketing and Sales

Even though we market our services under the common “LAN” brand, we differentiate our marketing strategies between our long-haul and short-haul services.

Our long-haul marketing strategy emphasizes attributes valued by our international customers, including reliability, high quality on-board and ground service, comfort, comprehensive coverage of key South American markets and frequent service to major overseas gateways such as New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Miami, Madrid and Sydney. In order to strengthen our market position, we have continued improving our passenger cabins and service and constantly monitor our corporate image. As such, in December 2008 and May 2009 we completed a retrofit program for our Boeing 767-300 and for our Airbus A340-300 fleet respectively, merging the Business and First Classes cabins into a Premium Business Class featuring full-flat seats, new entertainment units for both Premium Business and Economy cabins, together with a new on-board service.  We invested US$124 million in this retrofit program for all our long haul passenger aircraft, which aims to give our passengers a sense of a “shorter” and more pleasant flight. For our Business passengers, our cabin features an on-board service aimed at providing the passenger with more time to rest, and for our Economy Class passengers, our upgraded entertainment units aim to make the flight a more enjoyable one.

Our long-haul fleet plan includes the incorporation of the new Boeing 787 in 2012. LAN will be the first airline in Latin America, and one of the first in the world, to receive this model whose latest-generation technology and cabin innovations represent a revolution in the airline industry. Passengers will experience the 787’s advantages in the form of higher cabin humidity and increased comfort. These acquisitions will allow us to reach new destinations and boost LAN’s existing services while also continuing to increase the efficiency of our operations and reduce our carbon footprint.

Our short-haul operations are designed to better match the customers’ needs in those routes, which are punctuality, reliability, higher frequencies, modern aircraft and efficient operations. As such, these routes now feature modern planes, with leather seats, increased frequencies with more point-to-point flights, improved punctuality and streamlined processes including Internet sales, web check-in and airport self-check-in. We completed the phase-out of our Boeing B737-200 fleet in 2008 and replaced it with modern Airbus Family Aircraft such as A320, A319 and A318.

We are constantly focused on delivering the services and flight items valued by customers in order to maintain high levels of customer satisfaction and we continuously monitor our customers’ preferences through surveys and perception studies. As a result, we created the new Premium Economy class on some regional routes in response to comments made by our business travelers. The Premium Economy program grants our customers preferential check-in and boarding, access to our VIP lounges, priority baggage claim, exclusive cabins with only twelve passengers, and personalized attention by our cabin attendants, among other benefits.

As mentioned above, we have been implementing a new business model in all our domestic operations (Argentina, Chile, Peru and Ecuador) that seeks to make air travel accessible to more people through low fares supported by a low-cost operation based on the efficient use of our resources. During 2010 LAN received several awards solidifying the Company’s market position. These awards included Best Airline in South America (Skytrax) and Airline Staff Service Excellence in South America (Skytrax).

Branding

In March 2004, we launched our new “LAN” brand to bring together, under one strong international name, all our local brands such as “LAN Chile,” “LAN Peru,” “LAN Argentina” and “LAN Ecuador.” We developed our new brand and corporate image after an extensive process supported by a leading global branding agency.

Our corporate image is based on two core concepts: reliability and warmth, which support our promise of the best travel experience to, from and within South America.  We are also committed to offer our customers with the best coverage to, from and within South America, and to promote sustainable tourism, helping develop the regions where we operate.

During 2005 and 2006, we focused on advancing the transition to our new brand image. This included the gradual repainting of our fleet, which was completed in the second quarter of 2006. Our commercial strategy, centered on exploiting the LAN alliance concept, has been widely recognized, as exemplified by Airline Business magazine’s recognition of us in 2004 with its “Airline Strategy Award, Marketing.”

Using a single brand enabled our customers to better understand the common service and operating standards among our airlines, and our new image improved our visibility, which enhanced flexibility and increased the efficiency of our marketing efforts.  It also provided a platform for the strategic use in mature markets of the following three powerful sub-brands, all related to the LAN root:

· the www.lan.com website for the convenience of our web booking engine and services platform;

· LANPASS for our frequent flyer program; and

· LANTOURS, a sub-brand through which we offer travel packages, hotels and other ancillary products, as well as promote tourism activities to and from the regions in which we operate.  LANTOURS took hold first in Chile and is gradually being introduced into other key markets.

Our regular brand tracking and marketing effectiveness measurements show outstanding results in brand consistency and recognition, improving year after year, with marketing investments managed at healthily stable rates. As the corporate values behind our umbrella brand encompass attributes applicable to both operations, long haul and short haul, a single brand strategy has resulted in significant savings, as we only have to promote one master brand, thereby increasing the efficiency of our marketing efforts.

Distribution Channels

We use direct and indirect distribution channels. In the past few years, we have focused on streamlining our distribution strategy in order to reduce costs and enhance the effectiveness of our commercial efforts. This effort has resulted in efficiency gains, and we believe it should lead to further benefits in the future.

Travel agents conduct indirect sales that accounted for approximately 38% of passengers during 2010. We paid these travel agents standard commissions ranging from 0% to 6% depending on the market and the ticket region type (domestic / international). Consistent with our efforts to reduce commission costs, and in line with current market practices, in recent years we have reduced standard commissions in several markets. However, we are now charging a fee to customers for sales done through our own ticket offices or call centers in most countries, leaving the Internet as the only free-of-charge distribution channel.

Travel agents obtain airline travel information and issue airline tickets through Global Distribution Systems, or GDSs, that enable them to make reservations on flights from a large number of airlines. We participate actively in all major international GDSs, including Sabre, Amadeus, Galileo and Worldspan. In return for access to these systems, we pay transaction fees that are generally based on the number of reservations booked through each system. As part of its continued commitment to its passengers, in late 2009, LAN signed a series of agreements with Sabre, one of the major suppliers of IT solutions in the global airline industry. Through these agreements, Sabre will provide the Company with the most advanced technology in reservation and distribution systems, optimization of routes and operational planning. The process of implementing the new system platforms comprises a period of adjustment and migration that will last between two and three years until its full implementation. These agreements represent a major step in terms of innovation by implementing the industry’s most advanced technology to streamline business and operational processes involved in the service the Company provides to its customers. These agreements will serve to provide itineraries that best fit the needs of passengers and to provide simpler, agile and efficient services in airports and in the sales and distribution channels, improving LAN’s services in each of the stages of the travel experience.

Direct channels refer to sales by our own ticket offices, contact-centers and website. In 2010, direct bookings accounted for approximately 62% of all our passengers.

We have an extensive sales and marketing network in over thirty countries consisting of more than 155 domestic and international points-of-sale owned by us and approximately 37 general sales agents.

Our contact-centers support the growth of our operations constituting a sales and a multi-service channel. During 2010, we continued to grow and develop new services to match the increasing expectations of our clients and the growth of our direct sales channels, in particular the www.lan.com website. Our main contact-center located in Santiago accounts for 700 agents (of which 270 are home-based) and 230 agents in Lima. We complement our contact-center’s operations with third-party service providers that add approximately 400 agents who are located in Santiago, Lima and Buenos Aires. In total, all the centers handle more than 28,000 calls/contacts per day, which mainly originate from the regions where we fly (South America, North America, Europe and Australasia) and cover four languages (Spanish, English, Portuguese, French and German). We have continually upgraded our systems by incorporating technological advances to enhance efficiency and customer service.

Our website, www.lan.com, is an integral part of our commercial, marketing and service efforts. Together with other direct sales initiatives, our website provides us with an important tool to reduce our distribution costs. Our Internet-related sales have increased significantly in recent years, by 21.9% in 2009 compared to 2008, and 22.0% in 2010 compared to 2009, which amounted to US$646 million in 2010. We are continually improving our website, a key element of our new short-haul model, so that the technological platform can support the expected future growth.

Besides serving as a sales channel, we have utilized our website as a tool to provide value-added services and enhance communications. We send weekly promotional e-mails to more than 3.8 million subscribers. Members of our frequent flyer program receive their monthly balances and other information by e-mail and can access the data and redeem awards through our website. We have an active online marketing program which brings visitors to the website from search engines and travel-related websites.

During 2009 we improved several services on the website. We introduced the flexible award redemption service, which enables LANPASS members to obtain flights with their kilometers at any time of year. We also updated our Flight Information System to ensure accurate, real time information.  In addition, we continued to promote our web-based check-in service for domestic and international flights. This system allows those passengers who are not checking-in bags, to go directly to the gate, and the remaining checked-in passengers, to leave their bags at a special bag drop counter and proceed to the gate. In addition to web-based check-in, we have self-check kiosks in 13 airports in Chile, seven airports in Peru, two airports in Argentina and three airports in Ecuador. As of December 31, 2010, the kiosk and web check-in utilization rate increased to 81% for domestic routes in Chile, 82% for domestic routes in Peru, 52% for domestic routes in Argentina and 39% for domestic routes in Ecuador.  Also in 2010 we launched our LAN.com Mobile service, enabling our customers to check-in, verify their flight status and other itineraries using their internet-enabled mobile phones.

In 2010 LAN was recognized as the “Latin American e-commerce Company of the Year” by the Latin American e-Commerce Institute.

Electronic Ticketing

In 1997, we introduced electronic tickets, commonly referred to as e-tickets, and have since worked to increase their use. E-tickets are a key element of our sales efforts through the Internet and our call centers and they also produce important simplifications in our back-office, enabling us to significantly reduce distribution costs. Since 2008, the Company has reached a 100% penetration of e-ticketing on all LAN routes.

Also, during 2010 we completed the implementation of interline e-ticketing with all of our oneworld® partners.

Advertising and Promotional Activities

Our advertisement and promotional efforts are aimed at enhancing our brand positioning and supporting specific aspects of our commercial efforts. These activities include the use of television, print, outdoors and radio advertisements as well as direct and online marketing.

During 2010, our campaigns where mainly focused on continuing stimulating demand by implementing a pricing strategy that has made flying more accessible to those traveling especially for tourism. Our various promotional efforts have allowed us to reach new customers and to promote local and regional tourism in the markets where we operate.  This is supported by the unique coverage and travel experience that we offer to those passengers traveling to, from and within South America.

On a country-specific level, we carried out a TV campaign in Chile to promote sustainable tourism within the country, inviting people to discover and take care of the wonders of Chile, travelling in an environmentally conscious way.  This was also leveraged by a second TV campaign launched by SERNATUR, Chile’s National Tourism Agency, in partnership with LAN and other members, aimed at promoting local tourism among Chilean citizens.  These efforts show LAN’s ongoing commitment with the development of local communities through the promotion of sustainable tourism.

In Peru, we carried out a campaign aimed at communicating LAN’s extensive international coverage through its unique South American network and the oneworld alliance.  The campaign also focused on attributes such as quality of service and travel experience.

In Argentina, we launched a campaign aimed at communicating the main reasons why LAN has become the airline of choice, focusing on attributes such as unique service and flight experience, reliability, punctuality and domestic coverage.

In April 2009, LAN Ecuador launched its domestic operations, which constituted a turning point in Ecuador’s domestic market by broadening access to air travel, as a result of lower prices and LAN Ecuador’s world-class service. In 2010, we launched a campaign to communicate the new daily route to the wonderful and exotic Galápagos Islands, as well as the new direct flight from Guayaquil to Miami, offered four times a week.

LAN has built a comprehensive database that includes valuable information such as flying preferences, demographic and other relevant customer information, which is used for passenger revenue management (including targeted promotions to different customer segments), thereby reducing dilution and maximizing response rates. This type of information is also a source for customer metrics and monitoring and provides significant management information.  During the past years, the skills involved in profitably exploiting these resources were strengthened with the incorporation of key teams to act locally in Peru, Argentina, Ecuador, the United States and Europe, in close collaboration with the head office.

Frequent Flyer Program

Our frequent flyer program is called LANPASS. The objective of LANPASS is to generate incremental revenue and customer retention through customer loyalty and targeted marketing. Worldwide, as of December 2010 LANPASS has approximately 4.3 million members.

Customers earn kilometers in their LANPASS accounts based on distance flown and class of ticket purchased, or by using services of other participants in the LANPASS program. Based on an award schedule, customers can redeem kilometers for free tickets, upgrades or other products. Under our current frequent flyer program, our passengers are grouped into one standard level and three different elite levels based on each passenger’s flying behavior. These different groups determine which benefits customers are eligible to receive, such as free upgrades on a space-available basis, VIP lounge access and preferred boarding and check-in.

Aiming to increase redemptions and broaden redemption alternatives, in 2010 LANPASS offered new redemption options such as an online product catalogue and special wine events where top tier members were invited to redeem their kilometers for the wine offered in LAN’s Premium Business menu. These new offerings along with the traditional rewards already offered resulted in an increase of 25% in kilometers redeemed by LANPASS’ members in 2010.

LANPASS has highly rated partners, including other airlines, hotels, car rental agencies, retailers, and credit card issuers from the main financial institutions in Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Argentina and beginning in 2010 in the United States.  These partnerships give our customers the opportunity to accrue additional kilometers for using their services.

Through the incorporation of additional partners in 2010, LAN customers accrued 48% more kilometers than in 2009, by using other services different from the services offered by LAN and other airlines.  In the banking segment, LANPASS renewed its partnership with Santander Chile for another five years, spreading LANPASS accrual from credit/debit card to all retail banking offering.  LANPASS also launched a new partnership with BBVA, a leading bank in Argentina, began to issue credit cards in the United States with US Bank, and increased our offering in redemption catalogs in Brazil with Banco Itau.

In the non banking segment, LANPASS continues to leverage its member’s purchase behavior to partner with leading players in the markets and become the most attractive loyalty program in the home markets. Last year, LANPASS enter in new industries, such as Automotive, Real Estate, Drugstores and Health Care Centers.

As an active member of the oneworld® alliance, we have reciprocal frequent-flyer agreements with all oneworld® carriers. In addition, we have reciprocal agreements with other carriers, such as Alaska Airlines, Aeromexico, Mexicana and TAM, which allow us to benefit from the loyalty of their customers, as they can accrue points under their frequent flyer program when traveling on LAN’s flights.

The LANPASS frequent flyer program aims to be the leading loyalty program in all of LAN’s home markets. In the past couple of years, we have implemented a number of marketing initiatives to increase customer’s engagement with the program outside Chile. In 2010, membership in LANPASS grew 36% in Peru, 42% in Ecuador and 32% in Argentina.

Cargo Operations

General

The following table sets forth certain of our cargo operating statistics for domestic and international routes for the periods indicated:

	Year ended December 31,
	2010			2009			2008
The Company
ATKs (millions)
Total		4,628.7			3,848.9			4,071.9
RTKs (millions)
Total		3,245.3			2,627.4			2,906.2
Weight of cargo carried (thousands of tons)
Total		780.8			649.3			661.5
Total cargo yield (cargo revenues/RTKs, in US cents)		39.5			34.1			45.4
Total cargo load factor (%)		70.1	%		68.3	%		71.4	%

Our cargo business generated revenues of US$895.6 million in 2009 and US$1,280.7 million in 2010.  This represented 24.5% and 28.3% of our operating revenues, respectively. Cargo revenues declined 32.1% between 2008 and 2009 primarily due to the global economic crisis that affected the industry and the decline in salmon exports from Chile due to the ISA virus. Nevertheless, during 2010 revenues increased 43.0% on a year-over-year basis as we took advantage of the recovery of world cargo markets.

Our cargo business generally operates on the same route network used by our passenger airline business, which is supplemented by freighter-only operations. Overall, it includes approximately 86 destinations (over 66 are operated by passenger and/or freighter aircraft and approximately 20 operated only by freighter aircraft). We complement our own international operations through coordination with our regional affiliates, MasAir in Mexico, ABSA in Brazil and Lanco in Colombia. ABSA also operates in the Brazilian domestic market since March 2009. We carry cargo for a variety of customers, including other international air carriers, freight-forwarding companies, export oriented companies and individual consumers. For information about our fleet, see “—Fleet—General” below.

We transport cargo in four ways: (i) in the bellies of our passenger aircraft, (ii) in our own dedicated freighter fleet, (iii) in belly space that we purchase from other airlines and, (iv) in aircraft that we charter or lease pursuant to ACMI contracts (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance). Under the latter, which are also known as “wet-leases,” the lessor operates the aircraft and provides the aircraft, crew, maintenance and insurance pursuant to short- and medium-term contracts.

Our international cargo operations are headquartered in Miami, whose geographical location positions it as the natural gateway for Latin American imports and exports to and from the United States. Since 2001 we have operated in our 380,000 square-foot facilities within the Miami International Airport. In 2010 we upgraded this facility to enhance our ability to handle perishables and we leased an additional 117,000 square-foot warehouse close to our main facilities. The United States accounts for the majority of the cargo traffic to and from Latin America. Besides being the main market for Latin American exports by air, the United States is also the main supplier of goods, such as high-tech equipment or spare parts, transported by air to Latin American countries. To complement our own cargo operations to the United States, we have negotiated commercial agreements with American Airlines on some routes from Miami to Brazil.

We operate to three destinations in Europe: to Madrid, which we serve via passenger aircraft (using our flights from Santiago, Lima and Guayaquil), Frankfurt (through both passenger flights and freighter operations since October 2002, when we signed our partnership with Lufthansa Cargo (for more information on this agreement see “—Cargo Agreements” below), and Amsterdam (through freighter operations since October 2005).

In Latin America, the principal origins of our cargo are Colombia, Chile, Ecuador, Peru, Argentina and Brazil, which represent a large part of our northbound traffic. And for our southbound flights, Brazil is the main import market.

In general terms, cargo flows are unidirectional. This characteristic is a key determinant in the structure of cargo operations as well as in the commercial conditions in the cargo business. This is especially relevant in markets featuring structural imbalances between inbound and outbound flows or during specific periods of such disequilibrium. Lack of demand in one particular direction may force airlines to rely on different markets in order to maximize loads on return flights. Furthermore, demand weakness in one direction may limit the capacity that is profitable to allocate to some routes, therefore creating pressure on fares in order to compensate for weaker revenues in one particular direction. The evolution of our international cargo operations has always been affected by the flow imbalances of the Latin American cargo markets, resulting in a dramatic shift in the relative weight of southbound and northbound cargo flows throughout the years. For example, from 2002 to 2003 our international operations were characterized by very strong export traffic out of Latin America, but gradual increases in import demand, as well as the deceleration of export growth, led to more balanced cargo flows during 2004. Further extension of this trend led to excess demand on southbound routes since 2005.

We have designed our operations, route network and commercial strategies with the flexibility required to respond to changing conditions. As such, during 2003 we allocated additional capacity to northbound routes and adjusted fares on northbound routes in response to excess demand. During 2004 we gradually adjusted our operations to leverage a more balanced demand environment by performing an increased number of direct roundtrips between key export and import markets. However, weakness in exports since 2005 has driven us to support the northbound segment of certain routes with stopovers in additional export markets, to reduce northbound fares to stimulate demand and to raise southbound fares.

The flexibility that this business model allows based on adaptation to changes in market trends was key for LAN’s operations in 2009 when the business was affected by the contraction of import and export markets in response to the global economic crisis. In addition LAN Cargo saw a sharp drop in salmon exports from Chile as a result of an outbreak of the ISA virus. Such flexibility has also been a key element in the recuperation and growth experienced by LAN Cargo during 2010.

Our cargo traffic increased 23.5% between 2009 and 2010, from 2,623 million cargo revenue ton kilometers in 2009 to 3,239 million cargo revenue ton kilometers in 2010. This increase was above the 20.6% growth experienced by cargo traffic of the international airline industry. The company increased its capacity by approximately 20.5%, resulting in a 1.7 point increase in its load factor to 70.1% in December 2010. The increase in capacity was mainly driven by the incorporation of additional freighters, in particular two Boeing 777 freighters received between April and May 2009, as well as higher utilization of the freighter fleet. LAN Cargo transported 779,509 tons of freight in 2010, up by 20.1% compared to 2009.

In 2010, LAN’s cargo revenues increased by 43.0% to US$1,280.7 million, representing 28.3% of the Company’s total annual revenues, from US$895.6 million in 2009, when cargo represented 24.5% of annual revenues. The increase in revenues also reflected the 15.8% increase in cargo yields.

The sharp contraction of LAN’s traditional markets in 2009 - imports into the region and exports from the region – followed by the rapid recovery of demand in 2010 required the Company to fully lever the flexibility of its business model. During 2009 the Company implemented of a series of measures such as the adjustment of its capacity through a reduction in the number of planes rented under Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance & Insurance (“ACMI”) agreements and adjustments in the operations of its own cargo fleet of Boeing 767F freighters. This process was also reinforced by the incorporation of two new Boeing 777-200F, the most modern and efficient cargo aircraft of their type in the world, with a capacity of 104tons of freight and a range of 9,045 kilometers when carrying its maximum payload. This significant investment allowed LAN to consolidate its regional competitiveness by positioning it as the first airline in the region, and only the second internationally, to use these latest-generation cargo planes.

The Company also achieved a significant regional expansion in 2009.  In March, LAN Cargo launched Lanco, a subsidiary in Colombia, which began operations after successfully obtaining the necessary operational and technical certification. It launched its services with two Boeing 767-300Fs, with a capacity for 54 tons of freight, connecting the cities of Bogotá and Medellín with Miami. It is important to note that Colombia is Latin America’s largest market for exports by air to the United States reaching an estimated 200,000 tons annually.

In addition, in March 2009, the Company’s cargo subsidiary in Brazil, ABSA, began operations in that country’s domestic market, with one flight daily, from Monday through Friday, between the cities of Sao Paulo and Manaus. On this route, ABSA operates an advanced-technology Boeing 767-300F with a capacity of 54 tons.  This route accounts for a large part of Brazil’s airfreight traffic. Manaus is the country’s fourth largest city in terms of GDP, with a large number of companies, principally part of the electronics sector, in its industrial pole. The special tax incentives offered by the Amazon capital of Manaus as part of efforts to promote the area’s development, make it an attractive alternative for exporter and importer clients.

During 2010, revenue growth in the cargo business continued to reflect the Company’s ability to exploit the expansion in global cargo flows, as well as the development of key strategic initiatives. Active capacity management, with the purpose of optimizing capacity assignation coupled with new revenue management tools to manage cargo rates in response to demand, enabled LAN Cargo to benefit from the growth trends seen in import markets to Latin America, especially to Brazil. The expansion of operations to Europe utilizing the new Boeing 777-200 freighter fleet strengthened the Company’s competitive position and further diversified its revenue base. Additionally, through its Brazilian affiliate, ABSA, the Company continued to strengthen domestic cargo operations in Brazil. During 2010, ABSA launched operations from Sao Paulo to Recife and Fortaleza and added a second daily flight from Sao Paulo to Manaus. The Company also added capacity by securing three leased Boeing 767-300F, two of which were incorporated in late 2010 and one in early 2011. Furthermore, the Company continues to successfully optimize capacity in the bellies of passenger aircraft, maximizing the synergies of the Company’s integrated passenger and cargo operation.

During the last five years, we also improved our competitive position as key operators reduced their operations, and competitors such as UPS and FedEx either downsized their operations or exited some markets. Since mid-2004, competition increased as regional carriers added capacity, but despite this increase in competition, we have been able to maintain solid market shares in large part because of the efficient utilization of our fleet and network. Today, on Latin America-United States routes, our main competitors are Centurion, Transportes Aéreos Mercantiles Panamericanos S.A., or TAMPA, and Polar Air, and on the Latin American-Europe routes, our main competitors are Cargolux, Lufthansa Cargo, Martinair and Air France-KLM.

Cargo Agreements

Since 2002, Lan Cargo and Lufthansa Cargo have had a block space agreement between Europe and Latin America. As part of this agreement, Lan Cargo allocates space to Lufthansa Cargo on its flights between selected cities in Latin America and Europe, and Lufthansa Cargo allocates space to Lan Cargo on its flights between Europe and Brazil and Argentina.

We also have agreements with Asian carriers such as Korean Airlines, JAL, China Airlines, Air China and Cathay Pacific through which Lan Cargo receives space allocations from these airlines to move our cargo from Seoul, Tokyo, Taipei, Shanghai and Hong Kong to Los Angeles and Miami connecting with our network. In exchange, Lan Cargo provides them with space from these same two hubs in the United States to all Latin American destinations and also feeds them with westbound cargo.

Marketing and Sales

Our sales and marketing efforts are carried out either directly when we have a local office or through general sales agents. In Latin America we have our own offices in all key markets. In the United States we have our own offices in Miami, New York and Los Angeles, and work with representatives in various other cities. In Europe we have offices in Frankfurt and Madrid and use agents in other key cities. Finally, in Asia all our sales efforts are done through general sales agents. In total, we maintain a network of more than forty independent cargo sales agencies domestically and internationally.

Our cargo marketing strategy emphasizes our combination of freighter and passenger aircraft cargo capacity, which allows customers to ship large, bulky freight, as well as smaller, high-density cargo, fresh products, express shipments, and other types of cargo. Our cargo marketing strategy also emphasizes our high-quality services, scheduling flexibility and punctuality. On some routes, Lan Cargo offers special, value-added products such as Positive Flight Specific or FS, which enables the customer to choose a specific passenger flight to transport its goods. During 2010 we also launched the first phase of a new revenue management project aimed at optimizing yields.

Cargo-Related Investigations

In February 2006 the European Commission (“EC”), in conjunction with the Department of Justice of the United States (“DOJ”), initiated a global investigation of a large number of international cargo airlines (among them Lan Cargo, LAN’s cargo subsidiary) for possible price fixing of cargo fuel surcharges and other fees in the European and United States air cargo markets. On December 26, 2007, the European competition authorities notified Lan Cargo and LAN of the initiation of proceedings against twenty-five cargo airlines, among them Lan Cargo, for allegations of anti-competitive behavior in the airfreight business. On January 21, 2009, Lan Cargo announced that it had reached a plea agreement with the DOJ in relation to the DOJ’s ongoing investigation regarding price fixing of fuel surcharges and other fees for cargo shipments. Under the plea agreement, Lan Cargo agreed to pay a fine of US$88 million. In addition, ABSA also reached a plea agreement with the DOJ and agreed to pay a fine of US$21 million. These amounts were stipulated to be paid over a five-year payment schedule starting in 2009.  As of December 31, 2010, the pending amount to be paid during the next four years is approximately US$72 million and has been recorded within “Other Accounts Payable.”

On November 9, 2010 the EC imposed fines to 11 air carriers for a total amount of €800 million (equivalent to approximately US$1.1 billion). The fine imposed against Lan Cargo and its parent company, LAN Airlines, totaled €8.2 million (equivalent to approximately US$ 10.9 million).  The Company provisioned US$25 million during the fourth quarter of 2007 for such fines, and maintained this provision until the fine was imposed in 2010.  This was the lowest fine applied by the EC, which includes a significant reduction due to the Company’s cooperation with the Commission during the course of the investigation. In accordance with European Union law, on January 24, 2011 this administrative decision was appealed by Lan Cargo and Lan Airlines to the General Court in Luxembourg. Any judgment by the General Court may also be appealed to the Court of Justice of the European Union.

As of December 31, 2010 the Company recorded a US$14.0 million gain (pre-tax) due to the reversal of a portion of the provision related to the investigation in the cargo business carried out by the European Commission. This was as a result of the fine announced in November 2010, which was lower than the amount provided for. This reversal is recorded in Other gains/(losses).

The investigation by the DOJ prompted the filing of numerous civil class actions by freight forwarding and shipping companies against many airlines, including Lan Cargo and Lan Airlines, including fifty-four in the United States. The cases filed in the United States were consolidated in the United States District Court, Eastern District of New York and the original complaint was subsequently amended to include additional airlines, including ABSA. In February 2006 the Canadian Competition Bureau (“CCB”), in conjunction with the DOJ, initiated a global investigation of a large number of international cargo airlines (among them Lan Cargo) for possible price fixing of cargo fuel surcharges and other fees in the Canadian air cargo markets. The CCB’s investigation prompted the filing of four separate civil class actions by freight forwarding and shipping companies against many airlines, including Lan Cargo and Lan Airlines in Canada.  Given the current stage of the both proceedings, it is not possible at this time to anticipate with any precision the outcome of the Civil actions filed against Lan Cargo.

On April 5, 2008, Brazilian authorities notified ABSA of the initiation of administrative proceedings before the Conselho Administrativo de Defesa Econômica (the Brazilian Antitrust Authority) against several cargo airlines and airline officers, among them ABSA, for allegations of anticompetitive practices regarding fuel surcharges in the air cargo business. Given the current stage of the proceedings, it is not possible at this time to anticipate with any precision the outcome of the civil actions filed against Lan Cargo, although it is expected to be a lengthy process.

In June 2008, the Korean Fair Trade Commission notified LAN of an investigation into the air cargo industry and its non-compliance with the Monopoly Regulation and Fair Trade Act and has requested information and documentation from LAN, which LAN duly submitted. On May 26, 2010 the Korean Fair Trade Commission announced the imposition of penalties against 29 other airlines and excluded LAN from further investigation.

The New Zealand Commerce Commission also initiated an investigation into potential anti-competitive activities in the international air cargo markets and requested information and documentation from LAN, which LAN duly submitted. On December 15, 2008, the New Zealand Commerce Commission announced it would focus its investigation on ten airlines and excluded LAN from further investigation.

We operate different aircraft types as we perform various different missions ranging from short-haul domestic trips to long-haul trans-continental flights. We have selected our aircraft based on the ability to effectively and efficiently serve these missions while trying to minimize the number of aircraft families we operate.

· For short-haul domestic and regional flights we operate the Airbus A320-Family aircraft and, since the acquisition of Aires, we also operate the Boeing 737-700 aircraft, the Dash 8-200 aircraft, and the Dash 8-400 aircraft. The Airbus A320 Family that we currently operate has been incorporated into our fleet pursuant to operating leases or have been purchased directly from Airbus pursuant to various purchase agreements since 1999. In December 2010, we ordered 50 Airbus A320 Family aircraft. Consequently, as of February 28, 2011 we had outstanding orders for 16 Airbus A319 aircraft, 61 Airbus A320 aircraft, and 10 Airbus A321 aircraft for delivery between 2011 and  2016.  Our purchase contracts with Airbus provide for some flexibility with regard to future changes in aircraft types and delivery dates. We believe that our fleet of A320-Family Aircraft will allow us to provide broader service across Latin America as well as the domestic markets that we serve given their longer range. We also believe that they will enable us to increase efficiency levels through reduced fuel consumption and maintenance costs.

· For long-haul passenger and cargo flights we operate the Airbus A340-300 aircraft, the Boeing 767-300 passenger aircraft and Boeing 767-300 aircraft’s Freighters 777. The Boeing 767-300 aircraft’s size and range provides an optimal alternative for most of our long-haul passenger and cargo routes. Additionally, the commonality between the passenger and dedicated cargo versions allows us to leverage the ensuing economies of scale. We believe that these aircraft provide a key efficiency advantage over our peers, especially in the cargo business. The Boeing 767-300 aircraft that we currently operate have been incorporated into our fleet pursuant to operating leases or have been purchased directly from Boeing pursuant to various purchase orders since 1997. As of February 28, 2011 we had outstanding orders for nine Boeing 767-300 aircraft.  We also operate five Airbus A340-300 aircraft for long-haul routes. Given their range and four-engine configuration, these aircraft are well suited to perform trans-Atlantic and trans-Pacific missions out of Santiago. In the future, we will operate Boeing 787 aircraft for our long-haul fleet, for which we have placed 26 orders and committed 6 operating leases. We expect to receive our first Boeing 787 in 2012. For our cargo operations, we operate 12 Boeing 767 Freighters and two Boeing 777 Freighters.

For more information, see “Additional Information—Material Contracts” under Item 10.

During the first quarter of 2009, we initiated the process of incorporation of winglets, advanced technology devices, in all our Passenger and Freighter Boeing 767-300 aircraft. Winglets are placed on the wings of an aircraft causing an approximate 5% reduction in fuel consumption. The total investment in this project amounts to approximately US$ 70 million while as of February 28, 2011, 38 aircraft have been modified and US$ 50.5 million of the total investment has been disbursed. We expect to continue with the implementation of this project during 2011 and 2012 as we continue to receive Boeing 767s.

Fleet Leasing and Financing Arrangements

Our financing and leasing methods include borrowing from financial institutions and leasing under financial leases, tax leases and operating leases.

In 2000, to finance Airbus aircraft, LAN entered into a US$1.3 billion umbrella credit facility with a syndicate of international financial institutions under which the Company borrowed in the form of separate loans in connection with the specific financing requirements of each Airbus aircraft (including pre-delivery and long-term financing). This umbrella facility was guaranteed by the English, French and German Export Credit Agencies. The repayment profile for each aircraft financed under the facility was for a period of up to eighteen years. Under this financing package LAN incorporated Airbus aircraft into its fleet through operating leases, financial leases and tax leases. Even though this facility covered the aircraft scheduled to be delivered under our 1998/9 Airbus purchase agreements through December 31, 2006, the Company decided to fund the 2006 deliveries with a new facility negotiated in 2006. This new facility financed the acquisition of

· eight Airbus A319 delivered in 2006;

· five A318 and two A320 delivered in 2007;

· ten A318, two A319 and two A320 delivered in 2008; and

· three A319 delivered in the first quarter of 2009.

This new US$920 million facility is similar to the previous one as there are separate loans drawn in connection with the specific financing requirements of each Airbus aircraft and is also based on support guarantees from the European Export Credit Agencies namely Compagnie Francaise d'Assurance pour le Commerce Exterieur (Coface), Euler Hermes Kreditversicherungs-AG (Euler Hermes) and the Secretary of State of Her Britannic Majesty's Government acting by the Export Credits Guarantee Department (ECGD).. Under this financing package LAN incorporated into its fleet Airbus aircraft through financial leases. The facility covered 85% of the purchase price of each aircraft plus the associated export credit agencies premium. The remaining 15% was funded directly by the Company. There is no remaining drawdown availability under this facility.

Between 2004 and 2006, LAN ordered fifteen Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft and Freighters for delivery between 2005 and 2008. In 2004 the Company structured a new syndicated facility for US$260 million to finance the entire cost of the two Boeing 767-300 Freighters delivered in 2005 and the first Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft delivered in 2006. In 2005, LAN finalized the syndicated facility to fund the purchase of four Boeing 767-300 Passenger and Freighter aircraft for delivery in 2006. Between 2005 and 2006, LAN also finalized two additional syndicated facilities to fund the purchase of the remaining eight Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft. Three of these aircraft were delivered in 2007, and five were delivered in 2008. Each loan with respect to these aircraft is guaranteed by the Export-Import Bank of the United States (“Ex-Im Bank”) with a twelve-year profile for the financing of 85% of the aircraft value.

On June 12, 2005, LAN finished the payments with respect to a Boeing 767-200 aircraft that was held under a financial lease. This aircraft has been subleased to a third party at market rate until December 2011.

In 2006, LAN also ordered three additional Boeing 767-300 passenger aircraft for delivery between 2009 and 2010. The first aircraft, which was delivered in November 2009, was financed through the issuance of an Ex-Im-Bank guaranteed bond and through LAN’s own funds (85% and 15%, respectively). The remaining two aircraft were financed through a new Ex-Im Bank guaranteed facility and through LAN’s own funds (85% and 15%, respectively).

In April 2007, we entered into two lease agreements with GE Commercial Aviation Services for the lease of two Boeing 777-200LR Freighters, for delivery in 2009. In October 2007, we signed a purchase agreement with the Boeing Company for two additional Boeing 777-200LR Freighters to be delivered in 2011 and 2012.  In March 2010, LAN and the Boeing Company agreed to switch the first Boeing 777-200LR Freighter for two Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft to be delivered in 2011.

In the second half of 2007, the Company decided to acquire thirty-two new Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft with deliveries initially scheduled between 2011 and 2016. The Company entered into a purchase agreement with the Boeing Company for 26 of these aircraft and entered into leasing agreement with the International Lease Finance Corporation for the remaining six aircraft.

In November 2008, the Company entered into a purchase agreement for four additional Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft to be delivered in 2012. In March 2010, LAN decided to replace three of these passenger aircraft with three Boeing 767-300 Freighters to be delivered between 2013 and 2014. The fourth aircraft was rescheduled to be delivered in 2011.  During the last quarter of 2010, LAN decided to exchange the three Boeing 767 Freighters with three Boeing passenger 767-300 aircraft with deliveries in 2012. As part of this same contract, LAN also ordered a Boeing 777 Aircraft to be delivered in 2012.

During 2008, LAN decided to exercise 15 options to acquire A320-Family Aircraft.  Six of these aircraft were delivered in 2010 and the remaining nine are scheduled for delivery in 2011.  In March 2010, LAN entered into a credit facility to finance the entire pre-delivery payments attached to these 15 aircraft.  In April 2010, LAN entered into an agreement to finance the purchase of these 15 aircraft partially guaranteed by the European Export Credit Agencies and partially through its own funds (85% and 15%, respectively).

In the third quarter of 2010, LAN entered into three lease agreements with GE Commercial Aviation Services for the six year lease of Boeing 767-300 Freighters already delivered in November 2010, December 2010 and January 2011.

In December 2009, LAN entered into a purchase agreement with Airbus for 30 aircraft of the A320 family to be delivered between 2011 and 2014.

As of February 28, 2011, and as a result of the aircraft purchase agreements entered into with Airbus in 2009 and 2010, LAN has 82 Airbus passenger aircraft of the A320 family expected to be delivered between 2011 and 2016.

In September 2010, LAN entered into two new six-year operating lease agreements with AerCap for two A320 aircraft for our operations in Colombia.

In January 2011, LAN entered into a seven year lease agreement with the Bank of China Aviation Pte. Ltd. for one A320 aircraft.

In February 28, 2011, LAN increased its long haul aircraft orders by three Boeing 767-300 Passenger Aircraft with deliveries in the second half of 2012.

Regarding our Boeing fleet, three Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft are expected to be delivered in 2011, six Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft are expected to be delivered in 2012, Boeing 787-8/9 passenger aircraft are expected to be delivered between 2012 and 2018 and two Boeing 777-Freighter are expected to be delivered in 2012.

As of February 28, 2011, we held 46 aircraft under operating leases compared to 16 as of February, 2010. Twenty five of these aircraft are related to Aires domestic operations which consist of 10 Boeing 737-700, 11 Dash 8-200 and 4 Dash 8-400 aircraft. Under the terms of our operating leases, we are required to return the aircraft in an agreed upon condition at the end of the lease. Although the title to the aircraft remains with the lessor, we are responsible during the lease term for the maintenance, servicing, insurance, repair and overhaul of the aircraft.

As of December 31, 2010, aggregate future minimum lease payments required under our aircraft operating leases were US$675million, with US$193 million related to Aires. Our operating leases have terms ranging from three months to twelve years from the date of delivery of the aircraft. For more information, see Note 2.21 to our audited consolidated financial statements.

For more information on our expected future capital expenditures in connection with aircraft purchases see “Capital Expenditures” under Item 5.

Maintenance

Our heavy maintenance, line maintenance and component shop are equipped to service our entire fleet of Airbus and Boeing aircraft. Our maintenance capabilities allow us flexibility in scheduling airframe maintenance, offering us an alternative to third-party maintenance providers.

LAN facilities at Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport in Santiago, Chile are among the most extensive in Latin America and have been certified according to IOSA standards and as a FAA approved repair station. Our hangars and components shops at our Santiago repair station can service the Boeing 767, Boeing 777, Airbus 340 and Airbus 320 Family Aircraft fleet. In addition, we have facilities for designing and manufacturing galleys, structures and composite materials, and we have the capability to retrofit aircraft interiors, including sophisticated in-flight entertainment equipment, and blended winglets in the Boeing 767 fleet.

Our engineering and maintenance division is supervised by the local Civil Aviation Authority (the Dirección General de Aeronáutica Civil “DGAC”) and is subject to several recurrent external audits from civil aviation authorities and international entities such as the FAA, the Argentine Dirección Nacional de Aeronavegabilidad (the National Directorate of Airworthiness or “DNA”), the Brazilian Agencia Nacional de Aviacao Civil (the ANAC), the International Air Transport Association Operational Safety Audit (“IOSA”) (from the International Air Transport Association or “IATA”) and the International Civil Aviation Organization (“ICAO”), in order to strictly comply with applicable regulations. The audits are conducted in connection with each country’s certification procedures and enable us to continue to perform maintenance for aircraft registered in the certificating jurisdictions. Our repair station holds FAA Part-145 certifications under these approvals.

We also rely on third parties for certain maintenance support for our aircraft and engines. Lufthansa Technik provides our Airbus A320-Family Aircraft and A340 Aircraft component support on a power-by-the-hour basis under a long-term contract, which runs until 2019. International Aero Engines provides the A320 and A319 engine support on a power-by-the-hour contract, which runs for twelve years once each engine is received. Pratt and Whitney provides the A318 engine support on a power-by-the-hour basis contract, which runs for ten years once an engine is received. General Electric provides the maintenance of our Airbus A340 engines under a similar contract, which also runs for twelve years once an engine is received In addition, General Electric provides for the maintenance of most of our Boeing 767 engines under a contract effective until 2014. Third parties also provide certain additional engine maintenance services. Air France-KLM, which services have been contracted until 2015, provides the maintenance of our Boeing 777 engines and components and to our Boeing 767-300 components.

We occasionally perform certain maintenance services for other airlines.

Our aircraft maintenance personnel participate in extensive training programs at the jointly operated Lufthansa LAN Technical Training S.A., located in Santiago, Chile.

In 2010, LAN continued implementing the management system known as LEAN in an effort to increase efficiency, specifically in its operational areas. The adoption of this system constituted a redesigning of processes that permits solving problems that may occur during aircraft maintenance. The foregoing renders the daily tasks and processes carried out within the Company more efficient. Internationally, the LEAN system has been defined as a methodology for achieving excellence and continuous improvement. It seeks to eliminate activities that do not add value to processes, and suppressing those activities that are superfluous, thereby allowing companies to reduce costs, improve processes and increase customer satisfaction.

During the last year, LAN continued to benefit from the implementation of LEAN in heavy maintenance. Heavy maintenance is performed approximately every 12–18 months or a specific amount of actual flight hours as defined by the manufacturer.  This maintenance check puts the aircraft out of service. In 2010, we achieved a 20% reduction in the time an aircraft remains in the hangar.  Other benefits of LEAN include a reduction of approximately 80% in errors, a gain of approximately 60% in productivity and a reduction of approximately 60% in labor accidents.  Furthermore, by establishing clear roles, challenges and achievements, the implementation of LEAN has had an important benefit in terms of employee motivation.

Safety and Security Corporate Direction

The Safety and Security Corporate Direction (“SSCD”) is an internal division in charge of the management of safety and security matters related to flight operations, operative and administrative buildings, organization and coordination of emergency response matters, safety and security audits and safety and occupational health.

The SSCD reports directly to LAN’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), which reflects the firm commitment that the Company’s senior management has with its employees. The SSCD is comprised of five independent reporting management areas: safety management, security management, emergency response management, Safety & Security Audit management and Safety and Occupational Health Management .

Safety Management

We give high priority to providing safe and reliable air service, as it is considered a fundamental asset to LAN and one of the basic pillars for the development of our Company. We have uniform safety standards and safety-related training programs that cover all of our operations. LAN has implemented a Safety and Quality Management System (“SMS”) throughout the operational areas of the Company, which is certified by the Chilean DGAC and IOSA System. The SMS provides clear definitions of the functions and responsibilities regarding operational safety for all persons involved, from the top to the bottom of the operational structure of the airline. It strengthens the commitment and knowledge required from everyone in the Company regarding any and all actions that could affect safety.

31

The Operational Safety Director (“OSD”) is responsible for the Operational Safety Oversight and the implementation of the SMS. The OSD supervises a staff of approximately twenty-one safety specialists of different backgrounds, including pilots, aeronautical engineers, aircraft maintenance engineers, a psychologist, and dangerous goods and ground handling safety specialists.

Our corporate operational safety organization consists of four main areas:

· Flight Safety Management: The Flight Safety Area oversees and audits our operational safety measures, investigates major incidents and programs and controls the LOSA and FOQA Programs (as defined below). The Flight Safety Area also oversees and audits safety measures related to ground handling and cargo areas and investigates related incidents.

· Maintenance Safety Management: The Maintenance Safety Area oversees and audits our maintenance safety measures and investigates maintenance-related incidents.

· Flight Data Monitoring Management: The Flight Data Monitoring Area is responsible for the maintenance and administration of the recorded flight data and safety-related databases and software.

· Corporate Quality Management: The Corporate Quality Management Area is responsible for the administration of Internal Evaluation Program conducting organization-wide audits in all operational areas.

The main safety programs, elements and procedures include:

· Flight Operations Quality Assurance (“FOQA”). Since the end of 2002, LAN has been implementing a Flight Data Monitoring (“FDM”) program using two different analysis programs. The FDM program is fully developed for the A320-Family Aircraft, A340,Boeing B767, and B777 fleet. The statistical information obtained has produced standard operational procedure changes and valuable inputs to the Advance Qualification Program project. We have also fully developed a maintenance variation for the same fleets which monitors the engines, flight controls and general performance of the airplanes.

· Mandatory Occurrence and Mandatory Reports. Our operations policy manuals define the incidents that require a mandatory report. On a voluntary basis, personnel can provide confidential reports to the flight safety area in hard copy or electronic form.

· Safety Information Management. All safety information regarding all occurrences is entered into dedicated software, where it is analyzed according to its potential risk. Important incidents are investigated thoroughly. The relevant areas related to each particular incident implement corrective actions with the assistance of the corporate operational safety directory.

· Line Operation Safety Audit (“LOSA”). LOSA is a program designed to survey and analyze the safety components of our equipment and operations. LOSA observations have been conducted on the A-340, A-320 and Boeing B767 fleets. In 2007, a second LOSA observation has been applied to the A-340 fleet, which has given important information of the effectiveness of the corrective actions recommended by the first observation conducted in 2004.

· Human Factors Program. This program is based on a manual developed by LAN that includes all interconnectivities between flight operations and human factors. The program includes a Fatigue Risk Management Program that is being implemented since 2008.  The program also includes Crew Resource Management and Flight Crews Training and study of incidents using the Threat and Error Management (“TEM”) model.

· Quality Assurance and IOSA Certification Programs. Our flight and maintenance safety areas have a quality assurance system and are currently certified ISO 9001-2000. Our safety management system is based on the ISO 9001-2000 standards. We also periodically evaluate the skills, experience and safety records of our flight crews in order to maintain strict control over the quality of our flight crews. All of our aircraft pilots participate in training programs, some of which are sponsored by aircraft manufacturers, and all are required to undergo recurrent training. LAN Airlines, and passenger subsidiaries are IOSA registered. Currently, cargo subsidiaries IOSA audits are ongoing.

32

We also have an operational safety committee, composed of senior executives and key operational managers, responsible for the initiation of safety-related actions.

All of our Boeing 767, A320, A340 and Boeing 777 fleets are equipped with an enhanced ground proximity warning system, a traffic collision avoidance system, a wind shear detection system and reduced vertical separation minimum capabilities.

Since 1991, we have had no accidents involving major injury to passengers, crew or aircraft.

Security Management

The main policy and the essential principle of the Company is to ensure an adequate security protection to all its flights, aircraft, passengers, crew members, ground personnel, airport facilities and other services related to the commercial civil aviation against any threat or unlawful action.

The Company has implemented corporate policies and a quality management system through the operational system to detect any lack of security in its operations. Audits and assessments are used to assign different levels of security to international and domestic operations.

The Corporate Security Manager (“CSM”) has the responsibility to evaluate, analyze and assign threat levels (high, medium, low) to international and domestic operations, proposing security procedures for each scenario. The CSM leads an organization of five security managers and approximately fifteen security specialists. The current CSM is a former police officer with more than 25 years of experience in the civil aviation.

The corporate security organization has five main areas:

· Domestic Security Operations: that report to a former police officer with more than 20 years of experience in civil aviation.

· International Security Operations: that report to a former police officer, with more than 20 years of experience in civil aviation.

· North America, Caribbean and Europe Security Operations: that report to a security specialist, with more than 18 years of experience in civil aviation.

· Argentinean Security Operations: that report to a security specialist, with more than 30 years of experience in civil aviation.

· Peruvian Security Operations: that report to a security specialist, with more than 19 years of experience in civil aviation.

Each of the five areas is subdivided in internal investigations, fraud, training, cargo security, security of facilities and quality control.

Since 2002, the Company’s Corporate Security Manual unified international and domestic security procedures:

· Manual de Gestión de Seguridad (Manual of Security Management). The basis for local security procedures.

· Airport Security Plan or Airport Security Program. Approved by the DGAC for each country in which we have operations.  It includes procedures to prevent unlawful conduct and procedures for a bomb threat or hijacking drill.

· Corporate Security Training Program. It includes the contents and definitions regarding security training for all areas involved in acceptance of aircraft, baggage, cargo and passengers.

· Airport Security Inspection Program. It has the contents and definitions regarding airport inspections and identification of security issues and corrective action plans for non-compliance.

33

Emergency Response Management

The emergency response area is responsible for the administration of the Emergency Response Plan (ERP). It has been developed for the effective management of accidents and serious incidents with the purpose of mitigating any impacts on the passenger and their relatives and the operations.

The ERP consists mainly of:

· Emergency Procedures. They are widely advertised inside the Company, approved by the DGAC and covered by the Emergency Administration Manual.

· Emergency Response Centre (ERC).  The ERC includes three principal areas: the Emergency Strategy Committee, the Emergency Resolution Committee and the Public Relations Monitoring Area.  Those areas are located at Santiago, Chile. Most of them have meetings rooms, computers, satellite TV, conference call systems, video conference facilities, kitchens and rest rooms.

· Special Assistance Team (SAT). We have a humanitarian assistance program that we deploy for family and passenger assistance. We have about 1,200 total active volunteers distributed as follows: Santiago (700 volunteers), Miami (120 volunteers), Lima (210 volunteers), Ecuador (110 volunteers), and Buenos Aires (90 volunteers). Our SAT is complemented by service vendors.

· Telephone Inquiry Center. It is located in Santiago, Chile, at our call-center office  and has 500 agents. There are 18 toll free lines activated for family member calls and are published through the company web site and the media, in case of emergencies.

· Go Team. We have a special team that is dispatched to emergencies involving LAN aircraft. The Go Team includes a director, a SAT leader, a field investigation team (FIT) leader and other representatives from the general support, an Informatics & Telecommunication (IT) team, and security, finance, legal and maintenance departments.

· Logistic Area. It is activated and deployed in our head quarters and at the location of the accident.

Safety and Security Audit Management

The Safety and Security Audit Management reports directly to the Corporate Director. This area has the mission to advise senior management on issues relating to planning and control, design, documentation, implementation, maintenance and improvement of the SMS of LAN and its subsidiaries.

Functions and Responsibilities:

· Advise to senior management regarding the fulfillment of IOSA and ISAGO standards.

· Report to senior management the status of the SMS and Corporate Quality Management Area.

· Coordination of the implementation of the IOSA and ISAGO external audits with the Audit Organization.

The main objective of the Safety and Occupational Health Management is to ensure the safety and health of workers at work, by advising, managing and helping the company prevent occupational accidents and diseases through the identification and control of occupational hazards and medical surveillance.

The forgoing objectives are satisfied through a dedicated team of professionals (engineers, doctors, risk prevention experts and paramedics), who constantly develop activities aimed at protecting LAN employees

Functions and Responsibilities:

· Implementation and control of the preventive management systems.

· Development of training programs.

· Promotion and dissemination of safety and occupational guidelines,

· Assessment of risk of work place.

· Medical assistance to all injured employees.

· Investigation of all accidents.

· Preemployment medical assessment.

· Compliance with legal regulations regarding occupational health, safety and environmental issues.

· Checking of the emergency systems installed in the facilities.

Fuel Supplies

Fuel costs comprise the single largest category of our operating expenses. Over the last years, our fuel consumption and operating expenses have increased due to the significant growth in our operations and to the increase in fuel prices as a result of economic and political factors. In 2010, the foregoing trend was enhanced by the global economic recovery and the total fuel costs represented 29.79% of our total operating expenses.  The into-wing (fuel price plus taxes and transportation costs) 2010 average final price was US$2.32 per gallon, representing a 9.4% increase from the 2009 average. We can neither control nor accurately predict the volatility of fuel prices. Despite the foregoing, it is possible to partially offset the price volatility risk through our hedging and fuel surcharge programs in place in both our passenger and cargo business. For more information, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk —Risk of Fluctuations in Jet Fuel Prices” under Item 11.

The following table details our consolidated fuel consumption and operating costs (which exclude fuel costs related to charter operations in which fuel expenses are covered by the entity that charters the flight) during the last three years.

	Year ended December 31,
	2010			2009			2008
Fuel consumption (thousands of gallons)		501,098.2			452,708.5			445,667.7

Total fuel costs as a percentage of total operating costs		29.79	%		29.80	%		37.91	%

35

We have entered into fuel contracts to serve operations to more than sixty international and domestic destinations around the world.  Contractual terms and conditions vary for each location depending on market conditions, logistics network, volume, economic and political factors, among others. In 2010, approximately 26.5% of our total fuel consumption was originated in Chile where we maintain a long-term commercial relationship with a joint venture between Air BP and Copec, and where we have entered into specific supply contracts with Petrobras Aviation and Shell Aviation. We have more than twenty additional suppliers in our network such as Repsol YPF, Cepsa, Petroperu, Chevron, Air Total, Q8 Aviation and Exxon Mobil. In our secondary hubs we have the following fuel suppliers: Shell Aviation (Miami), Exxon Mobil and Petroperu (Lima), Exxon Mobil, Repsol YPF and Shell (Buenos Aires) and PetroEcuador (Guayaquil).

Ground Facilities and Services

Our main operations are based at the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport in Santiago, Chile. We also operate from various other airports in Chile and abroad. We operate hangars, aircraft parking and other airport service facilities at the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport and other airports throughout Chile pursuant to concessions granted by the DGAC. We also maintain one customs warehouse at the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport, additional customs warehouses in Chile (Iquique, Antofagasta and Punta Arenas) and Argentina (Aeroparque) and operate cargo warehouses at the Miami International Airport to service our cargo customers. Our facilities at Miami International Airport include corporate offices for our cargo and passenger operations and temperature-controlled and freezer space for imports and exports.

We have VIP lounges at the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport. The 7,500 square foot Neruda lounge, which represented an investment of approximately US$550,000 in 2001, has been widely acclaimed. In 2005, Latin Trade magazine selected it as the “Best Airline Lounge” in Latin America. In the same airport we also have the 4,300 square foot Mistral lounge.

Finally, we incur certain airport usage fees and other charges for services performed by the various airports where we operate, such as air traffic control charges, take-off and landing fees, aircraft parking fees and fees payable in connection with the use of passenger waiting rooms and check-in counter space.

During 2010, APV’s (“In-flight Service Supplier”) new 1,650 square meter facilities were completed in the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benitez International Airport.

The development of the new building for the facilities of Andes Airports Services (“Andes,” which performs ground handling services) is in process which is scheduled to be delivered at the beginning of 2012.

Ancillary Airline Activities

In addition to our airline operations, we generate revenues from a variety of other activities. In 2010, LAN generated other revenues of US$132.8 million from ancillary activities.

Our total revenue from aircraft leases (including subleases, dry-leases, wet-leases and capacity sales to certain alliance partners) and charter flights amounted to US$13.1 million in 2010.

LAN also provides cargo-related services such as courier, warehousing, value-added door-to-door services and customs services, through various subsidiaries.  During 2010, our logistics and courier businesses generated revenues of US$36.8 million while customs and warehousing services generated US$ 24.7 million. During January 2011, in relation with our courier business, we signed a promise of sale of our subsidiaries Blue Express Intl. Servicios de Transporte Limitada and Blue Express S.A. (together referred to as “Blue Express”), through which we operate vans and trucks and offer distribution and warehouse services throughout Chile. In April 2011, LAN sold Blue Express to Bethia S.A. a related party of LAN, for US$54.0 million. Since Blue Express’ book value is US$9.1 million, the sale generates a non-operational profit of approximately US$44.9 million, which will be reflected in the second quarter of 2011 financial results.

During 2010, we had revenues of US$28.1 million for tours and US$12.0 million for duty-free in-flight sales. The balance of our operating revenues, US$18.1 million in 2010, was generated by maintenance and handling. Other revenues in 2010 decreased mainly because of  fewer revenues from aircraft leases, tours and travel services, but this decrease was partially offset by higher revenues from customs and warehousing and from duty-free sales.

Insurance

We carry hull insurance that includes, among other coverage, “all risk,” war and allied risks, spares and liability for passengers, cargo, mail, baggage and third parties. We renew our insurance coverage yearly, and are subject to deductibles that vary depending on the coverage type and the loss type. Our deductibles are US$1,250 for loss or damage associated with passengers’ baggage liabilities, US$10,000 for loss or damage associated with cargo liabilities and between US$500,000 and US$1.0 million for hull “all risk” insurance (depending on the aircraft type). Additionally, we have hull deductible coverage to reduce the net hull deductible to US$100,000 per occurrence (aircraft and/or engine).

Since December 2006, we have negotiated common terms for Hull All Risk, Aviation Legal Liabilities and Spares coverage, together with British Airways, Aer Lingus and their affiliates and franchises which allows us to obtain premium reductions and coverage improvements.

Our insurance coverage has a one-year term starting in April of each year. The aggregate cost of our insurance coverage for the 2010 calendar year was US$15.6 million, which represents a 2.6% increase in insurance expenses and a 2.0% decrease in average insurance rates compared to the 2009 calendar year.

Aires is covered under a separate insurance policy, and its acquisition in 2010 resulted in an additional insurance cost of US$600,000 during 2010.

Information Technology

General

We use information technology in almost every aspect of our business.

Our reservations, departure control (check-in), inventory, flight planning and baggage tracing systems are operated by Amadeus, Sabre, Iberia and SITA, and we operate our internal systems from two data center facilities in Santiago, Chile. In 2006, we implemented a Disaster Recovery Plan between those two sites in order to ensure the functionality of our critical systems, with a recovery time objective of four days.  The line of business infrastructure currently has an average recovery time of two hours for 80% of our systems and two days for the remaining 20%.

Third-party suppliers provide us with the following technical infrastructure elements:

· wide-area data network (provided mainly by SITA and Telefónica); and

· data centers and desktop operations and support (provided by Accenture and IBM).

Basic Infrastructure Operation

Since early 2010, we have outsourced our IT infrastructure with Accenture and IBM worldwide. IBM manages the data center and Accenture handles our desktop equipment. This outsourcing allowed us to:

· deliver a standard world-class service;

· increase the efficiency of our IT operations;

· convert fixed costs into variable costs;

· guarantee that the service standards (such as up-time and response time) required by critical processes of our business are fulfilled;

· accelerate critical infrastructure projects while significantly reducing the resources required;

· increase the efficiency of our personnel; and

· focus internal IT efforts on business functions, rather than basic hardware and software issues.

Telecommunications

We have used the latest technology available with regard to our global telecommunications network. Our network has the capacity to transport voice, data, and video with the quality required by the Company, combining traditional private data channels with virtual private networks through the Internet.

37

Front-End Systems

During 2002, we deployed new systems to support our sales personnel. These systems provide the employees who have a direct contact with our customers with additional tools to improve service, enhance customer information and increase efficiency. During 2004 and 2005, we implemented these systems at our airport counters and our call centers.

Since 2005, we have favored a strategy of encouraging and facilitating self service alternatives for customers, through improving the functionality of the www.lan.com website as well as implementing self check-in kiosks in airports.

During 2009, we deployed a new online system in order to provide the processes that our engineering, maintenance and materials areas develop, with technological solutions.  This project has allowed us to establish and automate simple and integrated processes, standardize processes for the Company (including our subsidiaries and related companies), facilitate handling of materials and maintenance, make relevant information available in a full, unique and consistent way to all users, and optimize distribution and execution (planned and non planned), among other benefits.

Enterprise Resource Planning

In 2002, we purchased an enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system from SAP. This system was fully implemented in the second quarter of 2004 for Lan Airlines and almost all of its subsidiaries. This ERP system includes modules covering areas such as: finance, accounting, inventory management, human resources, business warehouse, as well as a user-friendly portal. We are currently working on optimizing and simplifying this system, and in leveraging it to increase the efficiency of our back-office processes.

Development and Maintenance System

With respect to new development needs, our first choice is to acquire existing packaged software, but we outsource this service when such software is not available in the market.  Since early 2007, we have outsourced our IT system development to three principal vendors:  TATA Consultancy Services, Everis and Indra.  Thanks to this outsourcing initiative, we have achieved:

· a decrease in project delays;

· an increase in systems reliability; and

· a shift in the efforts of the internal IT department to a more business oriented perspective.

New initiatives

We are implementing a new host (“Host”). A Host change is one of the most important decisions for the passenger business division in an airline in terms of process and technology. It consists in replacing the PSS, or Passenger Service System, that contains the reservation, inventory and departure control systems of an airline. This decision permits the understanding of the software from an aviation industry provider in ASP mode, adherence to standard processes and best industry practices and the integration of multiple legacy applications that complement the needs of the processes model for the airline business. For LAN, the Host change implies going from two suppliers (Amadeus and Resiber) currently covering the role of the complete PSS, to a single supplier (Sabre). This project represents an investment of approximately US$70.0 million, and is expected to provide immediate savings of 75% per passenger in reservation transaction costs and is estimated to be in place during March 2012.

The IT department expects to implement a Technology Refreshing Project between 2010 and 2012, to move to the platforms that will host our applications and services for the next five years.  During 2010, Lan Airlines will define the Technology Refreshing Project and all the platforms, software, solutions and services that it will use to support its business. These hardware and software solutions will be gradually implemented   between 2011 and 2012.

We are also buying new airplanes, namely, Boeing 787 aircraft. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is Boeing's most fuel-efficient aircraft and is the world’s first e-Enabled commercial airplane.

38

The Boeing 787 combines the integrated information and communications systems to drive operational efficiency and streamline airplane maintenance. The e-Enabled tools on the 787 will be a significant change from any other commercial airplane previously operated. The extensive e-Enabling on the 787 increases the need for network connectivity, hardware and software improvements, and systems management practices.

Regulation

Below is a brief reference to the material effects of aeronautical and other regulations in force in each of the relevant jurisdictions in which LAN and its subsidiaries operate.

Chile

Aeronautical Regulation

Both the DGAC and the JAC oversee and regulate the Chilean aviation industry. The DGAC reports directly to the Chilean Air Force and is responsible for supervising compliance with Chilean laws and regulations relating to air navigation. The JAC is the Chilean civil aviation authority. Primarily on the basis of Decree Law No. 2,564, which regulates commercial aviation, the JAC regulates the assignment of international routes, and the compliance with certain insurance requirements, and the DGAC regulates flight operations, including personnel, aircraft and security standards, air traffic control and airport management. We have obtained and maintain the necessary authority from the Chilean government to conduct flight operations, including authorization certificates from the JAC and technical operative certificates from the DGAC, the continuation of which is subject to the ongoing compliance with applicable statutes, rules and regulations pertaining to the airline industry, including any rules and regulations that may be adopted in the future.

Chile is a contracting state, as well as a permanent member, of the ICAO, an agency of the United Nations established in 1947 to assist in the planning and development of international air transport. The ICAO establishes technical standards for the international aviation industry, which Chilean authorities have incorporated into Chilean laws and regulations. In the absence of an applicable Chilean regulation concerning safety or maintenance, the DGAC has incorporated by reference the majority of the ICAO’s technical standards. We believe that we are in material compliance with all relevant technical standards.

Route Rights

Domestic Routes. Chilean airlines are not required to obtain permits in connection with carrying passengers or cargo on any domestic routes, but only to comply with the technical requirements established by the DGAC. Non-Chilean airlines are permitted to provide domestic air service between destinations in Chile, provided that the country in which the foreign airline is based grants a reciprocal right to Chilean airlines. There are no regulatory barriers that would prevent a foreign airline from creating a Chilean subsidiary and entering the Chilean domestic market using that subsidiary.

International Routes. As an airline providing services on international routes, Lan Airlines is also subject to a variety of bilateral civil air transport agreements that provide for the exchange of air traffic rights between Chile and various other countries. There can be no assurance that existing bilateral agreements between Chile and foreign governments will continue, and a modification, suspension or revocation of one or more bilateral treaties could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial results.

International route rights, as well as the corresponding landing rights, are derived from a variety of air transport agreements negotiated between Chile and foreign governments. Under such agreements, the government of one country grants the government of another country the right to designate one or more of its domestic airlines to operate scheduled services to certain destinations of the former and, in certain cases, to further connect to third-country destinations. In Chile, when additional route frequencies to and from foreign cities become available, any eligible airline may apply to obtain them. If there is more than one applicant for a route frequency the JAC awards it through a public auction for a period of five years. The JAC grants route frequencies subject to the condition that the recipient airline operate them on a permanent basis. If an airline fails to operate a route for a period of six months or more, the JAC may terminate its rights to that route. International route frequencies are freely transferable. In the past, we have generally paid only nominal amounts for international route frequencies obtained in uncontested auctions.

39

Airfare Pricing Policy. Chilean airlines are permitted to establish their own domestic and international fares without government regulation, as long as they do not abuse any dominant market position they may enjoy. For more information, see “Antitrust Regulation” below. Airlines may file complaints before the Antitrust Court with respect to monopolistic or other pricing practices by other airlines that violate Chile’s antitrust laws. In 1997, the Antitrust Commission approved and imposed a specific self-regulatory fare plan for our domestic operations consistent with the Antitrust Commission’s directive to maintain a competitive environment. According to this plan, we must file notice with the JAC of any increase or decrease in standard fares on routes deemed “non-competitive” by the JAC and any decrease in fares on “competitive” routes at least twenty days in advance. We must file notice with the JAC of any increase in fares on “competitive” routes at least ten days in advance. In addition, the Chilean authorities now require that we justify any modification that we make to our fares on non-competitive routes. We must also ensure that our average yields on a non-competitive route are not higher than those on competitive routes of similar distance.

Registration of Aircraft. Aircraft registration in Chile is governed by the Chilean Aeronautical Code (“CAC”). In order to register or continue to be registered in Chile, an aircraft must be wholly owned by either:

· a natural person who is a Chilean citizen; or

· a legal entity incorporated in and having its domicile and principal place of business in Chile and a majority of the capital stock of which is owned by Chilean nationals, among other requirements established in article 38 of the CAC.

The Aeronautical Code expressly allows the DGAC to permit registration of aircraft belonging to non-Chilean individuals or entities with a permanent place of business in Chile. Aircraft owned by non-Chileans, but operated by Chileans or by an airline which is affiliated with a Chilean aviation entity, may also be registered in Chile. Registration of any aircraft can be cancelled if it is not in compliance with the requirements for registration and, in particular, if:

· the ownership requirements are not met; or

· the aircraft does not comply with any applicable safety requirements specified by the DGAC.

Safety. The DGAC requires that all aircraft operated by Chilean airlines be registered either with the DGAC or with an equivalent supervisory body in a country other than Chile, so long as that country is a member of the Warsaw Convention. All aircraft must have a valid certificate of airworthiness issued by either the DGAC or an equivalent non-Chilean supervisory entity. In addition, the DGAC will not issue maintenance permits to a Chilean airline until the DGAC has assessed the airline’s maintenance capabilities. The DGAC renews maintenance permits annually, and has approved our maintenance operations. Only DGAC-certified maintenance facilities or facilities certified by an equivalent non-Chilean supervisory body in the country where the aircraft is registered may maintain and repair the aircraft operated by Chilean airlines. Aircraft maintenance personnel at such facilities must also be certified either by the DGAC or an equivalent non-Chilean supervisory body before assuming any aircraft maintenance positions.

Security. The DGAC establishes and supervises the implementation of security standards and regulations for the Chilean commercial aviation industry. Such standards and regulations are based on standards developed by international commercial aviation organizations. Each airline and airport in Chile must submit an aviation security handbook to the DGAC describing its security procedures for the day-to-day operations of commercial aviation and procedures for staff security training. Lan Airlines has submitted its aviation security handbook to the DGAC. Chilean airlines that operate international routes must also adopt security measures in accordance with the requirements of applicable bilateral international agreements.

Airport Policy. The DGAC supervises and manages airports in Chile, including the supervision of take-off and landing charges. The DGAC proposes airport charges, which are approved by the JAC and are the same at all airports. Since the mid-90s, a number of Chilean airports have been privatized, including the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport in Santiago. At the privatized airports, the airport administration manages the facilities under the supervision of the DGAC and JAC.

40

Environmental and Noise Regulation. There are no material environmental regulations or controls imposed upon airlines, applicable to aircraft, or that otherwise affect us in Chile, except for environmental laws and regulations of general applicability. There is no noise restriction regulation currently applicable to aircraft in Chile. However, Chilean authorities are planning to pass a noise-related regulation governing aircraft that fly to and within Chile. The proposed regulation will require all such aircraft to comply with certain noise restrictions, referred to in the market as Stage 3 standards. LAN’s fleet already complies with the proposed restrictions so we do not believe that enactment of the proposed standards would impose a material burden on us.

Argentina

Aeronautical Regulation.

Both the Administración Nacional de Aviación Civil (“ANACI”) and the Secretary of Transport oversee and regulate the Argentinean aviation industry. ANACI regulates flight operations, including personnel, aircraft and security standards, air traffic control and airport management, and reports indirectly to the Ministry of Planning and is responsible for supervising compliance with Argentinean laws and regulations relating to air navigation. The Secretary of Transport also reports to the Ministry of Planning and regulates the assignment of international routes and matters related to tariff regulation policies. We have obtained and maintain the necessary authorizations from the Argentinean government to conduct flight operations, including authorization certificates and technical operative certificates from ANACI, the continuation of which is subject to the ongoing compliance with applicable statutes, rules and regulations pertaining to the airline industry, including any rules and regulations that may be adopted in the future.

Argentina is a contracting state and a permanent member of the ICAO, an agency of the United Nations established in 1947 to assist in the planning and development of international air transport. The ICAO establishes technical standards for the international aviation industry, which Argentinean authorities have incorporated into Argentinean laws and regulations. In the absence of applicable Argentinean regulation concerning safety or maintenance, the ANACI has incorporated by reference the majority of the ICAO’s technical standards. We believe that we are in material compliance with all relevant technical standards.

Route Rights

Domestic Routes. In Argentina airlines are required to obtain permits in connection with carrying passengers or cargo on any domestic routes, and to comply with the technical requirements established by the local authority. There are no regulatory barriers preventing a foreign airline from creating an Argentine subsidiary and entering the Argentine domestic market using that subsidiary. However, ownership of such subsidiary by the foreign airline may not be direct, but through a subsidiary formed in Argentina, which in turn may be directly or indirectly owned by the foreign company. However, such subsidiary should operate Argentine registered aircraft and employ Argentine aeronautical personnel.

International Routes. As an airline providing services on international routes, Lan Argentina is also subject to a variety of bilateral civil air transport agreements that provide for the exchange of air traffic rights between Argentina and various other countries. There can be no assurance that existing bilateral agreements between Argentina and foreign governments will continue. Furthermore, a modification, suspension or revocation of one or more bilateral treaties could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial results.

International route rights, as well as the corresponding landing rights, are derived from a variety of air transport agreements negotiated between Argentina and foreign governments. Under such agreements, the government of one country grants the government of another country the right to designate one or more of its domestic airlines to operate scheduled services to certain destinations of the former and, in certain cases, to further connect to third-country destinations. In Argentina, when additional route frequencies to and from foreign cities become available, any eligible airline may apply to obtain them. ANACI grants route frequencies subject to the condition that the recipient airline operate them on a permanent basis. If an airline fails to operate a route for a period of six months or more, the ANACI may terminate its rights to that route.

Airfare Pricing Policy. Argentine airlines are permitted to establish their own international fares without government regulation, as long as they do not abuse any dominant market position they may enjoy. Yet, there are government-fixed maximum and minimum prices for domestic flights.

41

Registration of Aircraft. Aircraft registration in Argentina is governed by the Argentinean Aeronautical Code (“AAC”). In order to register or continue to be registered in Argentina, an aircraft must be wholly owned by either:

· a natural person who is an Argentinean citizen; or

· a legal entity incorporated in and having its domicile and principal place of business in Argentina and a majority of the capital stock of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by Argentinean nationals, among other requirements established in the AAC.

Safety. ANACI requires that all aircraft operated by Argentinean airlines be registered with ANACI. All aircraft must have a valid certificate of airworthiness issued by ANACI. In addition, ANACI will not issue maintenance permits to an Argentinean airline until ANACI has assessed the airline’s maintenance capabilities. ANACI renews maintenance permits periodically and approves maintenance operations once the airline initiates its operations and each time an airline changes its maintenance regime. Only ANACI-certified maintenance facilities (in Argentina or in any other country) may maintain and repair the aircraft operated by Argentinean airlines. Aircraft maintenance personnel at such facilities must also be certified by ANACI before assuming any aircraft maintenance positions.

Security. ANACI establishes and supervises the implementation of security standards and regulations for the Argentinean commercial aviation industry. Such standards and regulations are based on standards developed by international commercial aviation organizations. Each airline and airport in Argentina must submit an aviation security handbook to ANACI describing its security procedures for the day-to-day operations of commercial aviation and procedures for staff security training. Lan Argentina has submitted its aviation security handbook to ANACI. Argentinean airlines that operate international routes must also adopt security measures in accordance with the requirements of applicable bilateral international agreements.

Airport Policy. The ORSNA (Organismo Regulador del Sistema Nacional de Aeropuertos) supervises and manages the airports in Argentina, including the supervision of take-off and landing charges. The ORSNA proposes airport charges, which are approved by ANACI and are the same at all airports. Nevertheless, while domestic flights are charged in local currency, international flights are charged in U.S. dollars. Since the late-90s, a number of Argentinean airports have been privatized, including Aeroparque and Aeropuerto Internacional de Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini in Buenos Aires, the two most important airports in Argentina. At the privatized airports, the airport administration manages the facilities under the supervision of ANACI and ORSNA.

Environmental and Noise Regulation. There are no material environmental regulations or controls imposed upon airlines, applicable to aircraft, or that otherwise affect us in Argentina, except for environmental laws and regulations of general applicability and noise restriction regulation currently applicable to aircraft in Argentina. Any aircraft operated by an Argentinean airline should comply with certain noise restrictions, specifically with Stage 3 standards, as set forth in chapter 91.805 of the Argentinean civilian aviation regulations (Regulaciones Argentinas de Aviación Civil) referred to in the market as Stage 3 standards. LAN’s fleet already complies with the proposed restrictions so we do not believe that enactment of the proposed standards would impose a material burden on us.

42

Peru

Aeronautical Regulation.

The Peruvian DGAC (“PDGAC”) oversees and regulates the Peruvian aviation industry. The PDGAC reports directly to the Ministry of Transportation and Communications and is responsible for supervising compliance with Peruvian laws and regulations relating to air navigation. In addition,  the PDGAC regulates the assignment of national and international routes, and the compliance with certain insurance requirements, and  it regulates flight operations, including personnel, aircraft and security standards, air traffic control and airport management. We have obtained and maintain the necessary authorizations from the Peruvian government to conduct flight operations, including authorization and technical operative certificates, the continuation of which is subject to the ongoing compliance with applicable statutes, rules and regulations pertaining to the airline industry, including any rules and regulations that may be adopted in the future.

Peru is a contracting state and a permanent member of the ICAO. The ICAO establishes technical standards for the international aviation industry, which Peruvian authorities have incorporated into Peruvian laws and regulations. In the absence of an applicable Peruvian regulation concerning safety or maintenance, the PDGAC has incorporated by reference the majority of the ICAO’s technical standards. We believe that we are in material compliance with all relevant technical standards.

Route Rights

Domestic Routes. Peruvian airlines are required to obtain permits in connection with carrying passengers or cargo on any domestic routes, but only to comply with the technical requirements established by the PDGAC. Non-Peruvian airlines are not permitted to provide domestic air service between destinations in Peru.

International Routes. As an airline providing services on international routes, Lan Peru is also subject to a variety of bilateral civil air transport agreements that provide for the exchange of air traffic rights between Peru and various other countries. There can be no assurance that existing bilateral agreements between Peru and foreign governments will continue, and a modification, suspension or revocation of one or more bilateral treaties could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial results.

International route rights, as well as the corresponding landing rights, are derived from a variety of air transport agreements negotiated between Peru and foreign governments. Under such agreements, the government of one country grants the government of another country the right to designate one or more of its domestic airlines to operate scheduled services to certain destinations of the former and, in certain cases, to further connect to third-country destinations. In Peru, when additional route frequencies to and from foreign cities become available, any eligible airline may apply to obtain them. If there is more than one applicant for a route frequency the PDGAC awards it through a public auction for a period of four years. The PDGAC grants route frequencies subject to the condition that the recipient airline operate them on a permanent basis. If an airline fails to operate a route for a period of 90 days or more, the PDGAC may terminate its rights to that route, although that has never happened.

Airfare Pricing Policy. Peruvian airlines are permitted to establish their own domestic and international fares without government regulation, as long as they do not abuse any dominant market position they may enjoy. For more information, see “Antitrust Regulation” below. Airlines may file complaints before the Institute for Protection of Fair Competition and Consumer Rights (“Indecopi”) with respect to monopolistic or other pricing practices by other airlines that violate Peru’s antitrust laws.

Registration of Aircraft. Aircraft registration in Peru is governed by the Peruvian Civil Aviation Law. In order to register or continue to be registered in Peru, an aircraft must be wholly owned by either:

· a natural person who is a Peruvian citizen; or is domiciled in Peru; or

· a legal entity incorporated in and having its domicile and principal place of business in Peru and a majority of the capital stock of which is owned by Peruvian nationals, among other requirements established in article 47 of the  Peruvian Civil Aviation Law.

The Civil Aviation Law expressly allows the PDGAC to permit registration of aircraft belonging to non-Peruvian individuals or entities with a permanent place of business in Peru. Aircraft owned by non-Peruvians, but operated by a Peruvian airline, may also be registered in Peru but only if the aircraft is used for general, not commercial aviation.  Registration of any aircraft can be cancelled if it is not in compliance with the requirements for registration and, in particular, if:

43

· the ownership requirements are not met; or

· the aircraft does not comply with any applicable safety requirements specified by the PDGAC.

Safety. Peruvian law allows the use of aircraft that are registered either with the PDGAC or with an equivalent supervisory body in a country other than Peru. All aircraft must have a valid certificate of airworthiness issued by either the PDGAC or an equivalent non-Peruvian supervisory entity. In addition, the PDGAC will not issue maintenance permits to a Peruvian airline until the PDGAC has assessed the airline’s maintenance capabilities. The PDGAC renews maintenance permits annually, and has approved our maintenance operations. Only PDGAC-certified maintenance facilities or facilities certified by an equivalent non-Peruvian supervisory body in the country where the aircraft is registered may maintain and repair the aircraft operated by Peruvian airlines. Aircraft maintenance personnel at such facilities must also be certified either by the PDGAC or an equivalent non-Peruvian supervisory body before be appointed to any aircraft maintenance positions.

Security. The PDGAC establishes and supervises the implementation of security standards and regulations for the Peruvian commercial aviation industry. Such standards and regulations are based on standards developed by international commercial aviation organizations. Each airline and airport in Peru must submit an aviation security handbook to the PDGAC describing its security procedures for the day-to-day operations of commercial aviation and procedures for staff security training. Lan Peru has submitted its aviation security handbook to the PDGAC. Peruvian airlines that operate international routes must also adopt security measures in accordance with the requirements of applicable bilateral international agreements.

Airport Policy. CORPAC supervises and manages airports in Peru, including the supervision of take-off and landing charges. CORPAC sets airport charges for navigation facilities, which may differ  from airport to airport. Since the mid-90s, a number of Peruvian airports have been privatized, including the Aeropuerto Internacional Jorge Chávez in Lima. At the privatized airports, the airport administration manages the facilities under the supervision of the Organismo Supervisor de la Inversión en Infraestructura de Transporte de Uso Público, (the Supervising Agency of Investment in Public Transport Infrastructure Facilities or “OSITRAN”), an independent regulatory and supervising entity.

Environmental and Noise Regulation. There are no material environmental regulations or controls imposed upon airlines, applicable to aircraft, or that otherwise affect us in Peru, except for environmental laws and regulations of general applicability, but there are noise restriction regulations currently applicable to aircraft in Peru. LAN’s fleet complies with the proposed restrictions so they do not impose a material burden on us.

Ecuador

Aeronautical Regulation.

There are two institutions that control commercial aviation on behalf of the State:  (i) The National Civil Aviation Board (“CNAC”), which directs aviation policy; and (ii) the General Civil Aviation Bureau (“EDGAC”), which is a technical regulatory and control agency. The CNAC issues operating permits and grants operating concessions to national and international airlines.  It also issues opinions on bilateral and multilateral air transportation treaties, allocates routes and traffic rights, and approves joint operating agreements such as wet leases and shared codes.

Fundamentally, the EDGAC is responsible for:

· ensuring that the national standards and technical regulations and international ICAO standards and regulations are observed;

· keeping records on insurance, airworthiness and licenses of Ecuadorian civil aircraft;

· maintaining the National Aircraft Registry;

· issuing licenses to crews; and

· controlling air traffic control inside domestic air space.

44

The EDGAC also must comply with the standards and recommended methods of the ICAO since Ecuador is a signatory of the 1944 Chicago Convention.

Route Rights

Domestic Routes. Airlines must obtain authorization from CNAC (an operating permit or concession) to provide air transportation. For domestic operations, only companies incorporated in Ecuador can operate locally, and only Ecuadorian-licensed aircraft and dry leases are authorized to operate domestically.

International Routes. Permits for international operations are based on air transportation treaties signed by Ecuador or, otherwise, the principle of reciprocity is applied. All airlines doing business in Latin America that are incorporated in countries that are members of the Comunidad Andina de Naciones (the Andean Community, or “CAN”) obtain their traffic rights on the basis of decisions currently in force under that regime, in particular decision N°582 of 2004, which guarantee free access to markets, with no type of restriction except technical considerations.

Shared codes are allowed in Ecuador after authorization by the CNAC, but the respective airlines must have the relevant traffic rights.

Airfare Pricing Policy. There is no law in Ecuador regulating competition, although currently there is one under discussion. So far, the government has enacted a decision of the CAN that is being applied by the Undersecretary of Competition. This Department can impose sanctions and penalties if it is proven that a certain fare is predatory, i.e., when the fare is below cost.Rates are not regulated and are subject only to registration. In general, bilateral treaties regarding air transportation provide for airfares to be regulated by the regulation of the country of origin.

Registration of Aircraft. The legislation allows Ecuadorian companies to provide international air transportation services using aircraft licensed in Ecuador and aircraft with a foreign license, always provided the latter are exploited under dry leases. For domestic operations, aircraft is authorized only pursuant to dry leases and Ecuadorian registration. Aircraft interchange agreements are also allowed for international operations, provided that the aviation authority can confirm that the aircraft is under the operational control of an Ecuadorian operator. Wet leases are permitted, but very restricted.

Safety. In order to ensure aviation safety, the EDGAC requires that the airline hold an Air Operator Certificate and have Operating Specifications that are examined technically and rigorously to ensure compliance with the Civil Aviation Technical Regulations, which are essentially the same as the Federal Aviation Regulations (“FAR”) of the FAA. They cover matters of aircraft airworthiness, certification of maintenance facilities, and oversight by the EDGAC.

Security. The governing rules also apply to security in respect of the EDGAC. There are regulations, manuals and procedures on airport security overseen by the EDGAC.

Airport Policy. The international airports in Quito and Guayaquil are managed under administrative concessions, and the EDGAC merely controls air traffic. Fees for the use of airport facilities, terminal fees, landing fees, parking fees are all overseen and collected by the operator. Over-flight and approach fees are controlled and collected by the EDGAC.

Environmental and Noise Regulation. Aircraft must comply with the standards of category 3 under Ecuadorian applicable noise regulations, as set forth in Executive Decree (Decreto Ejecutivo) 1,405, enacted on October 24,2008, which provides certain technical specific criteria. Beginning in May 2010, aircraft must comply with standards of category 4 under cited regulation. Category 3 provides for compliance with ICAO regulations and technical conditions mandatory in the United States of America.

United States of America

Aeronautical Regulation.

Operations to and from the United States by non-U.S. airlines, such as Lan Airlines, are subject to Title 49 of the U.S. Code, under which the Department of Transportation (“DOT”) and the FAA exercise regulatory authority. The DOT has jurisdiction over international aviation in connection with the United States, subject to review by the President of the United States. The DOT also has jurisdiction with respect to unfair practices and methods of competition by airlines and related consumer protection matters. The U.S. DOJ also has jurisdiction over airline competition matters under the federal antitrust laws. Flight operations between Chile and the United States by airlines licensed by either country are governed generally by the open skies air transport agreement that Chile and the United States signed in October 1997. Under the open skies agreement, there are no restrictions on the number of destinations or flights that either a U.S. or a Chilean airline may operate between the two countries or on the number of U.S. and Chilean airlines that may operate.

Authorizations and Licenses.

Lan Airlines is authorized by the DOT to engage in scheduled and charter air transportation services, including the transportation of persons, property (cargo) and mail, or combinations thereof, between points in Chile and points in the United States and beyond (via intermediate points in other countries). Lan Airlines holds the necessary authorizations from the DOT in the form of a foreign air carrier permit, exemption authorizations and statements of authorization to conduct current operations to and from the United States. Exemptions and statements of authorization are temporary in nature and are subject to renewal and therefore there can be no assurance that any particular exemption or statement of authorization will be renewed. Lan Airlines’ foreign air carrier permit has no expiration date, while a renewal of the exemption authorization (which includes the open skies traffic rights) was timely filed and the Authority was automatically extended until such time as the DOT issues the renewal order. Lan Airlines intends to request the inclusion of the open skies rights into our foreign air carrier permit, which would eliminate our need to renew the exemption authority in the future.

The FAA is engaged in the regulation with respect to safety matters, including aircraft maintenance and operations, equipment, aircraft noise, ground facilities, dispatch, communications, personnel, training, weather observation and other matters affecting air safety. The FAA requires each foreign air carrier to obtain certain operations specifications that authorize it to operate to particular airports on approved international routes using specified equipment. Lan Airlines currently holds FAA operations specifications under Part 129 of the FAR in compliance in all material respects with all requirements necessary to maintain in good standing of its operations specifications issued by the FAA. The FAA can amend, suspend, revoke or terminate those specifications, or can suspend temporarily or revoke permanently our authority if an airline fails to comply with the regulations, and can assess civil penalties for such failure. A modification, suspension or revocation of any of our DOT authorizations or FAA operations specifications could have a material adverse effect on our business.

The FAA also conducts safety audits and has the power to impose fines and other sanctions for violations of airline safety regulations. We have not incurred any material fines related to operations.

Certain Regulatory Authorizations in Connection with Strategic Alliances.

The alliance between Lan Airlines and American Airlines includes three major components: a frequent flyer agreement, a reciprocal code-share agreement and the coordination of pricing, scheduling and other functions. The last two of these items required the approval of regulatory authorities in both Chile and the United States. With respect to the code-share agreement, the open skies agreement between Chile and the United States expressly permits code-sharing operations by U.S. and Chilean airlines. With regard to the coordination of pricing and scheduling, Lan Airlines and American Airlines filed a joint application with the DOT in December 1997, requesting approval of their alliance agreement and immunity from the application of all U.S. antitrust laws pursuant to Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Lan Airlines and American Airlines received approval and antitrust immunity from the DOT in September 1999, and implemented the code-share agreement in October 1999. In accordance with the terms of the DOT’s 1999 approval, Lan Airlines and American Airlines were required to resubmit their alliance agreement to the DOT for review within three years after the DOT’s grant of approval. Lan Airlines and American Airlines resubmitted the agreement in September 2002 and did not receive any comments from the DOT.

Lan Peru was granted antitrust immunity by the DOT on October 13, 2005 with respect to the alliance agreements and other agreements incorporated therein (i.e., the reciprocal code-share agreements, among others) with Lan Airlines and American Airlines. In accordance with the terms of the DOT’s 2005 approval, Lan Airlines, Lan Peru and American Airlines resubmitted their alliance agreement to the DOT for review in October 2010.

46

Flight operations between Argentina and the United States by airlines licensed by either country are governed generally by the air transport agreement that Argentina and the United States signed in 1986, as amended, including the Memorandum of Consultation dated March 22, 2007.  Lan Argentina is authorized by the DOT to engage in scheduled air transportation of persons, property and mail, between any point or points in Argentina and Miami, Florida, (via the intermediate point of Punta Cana, Dominican Republic).  Lan Argentina holds the necessary authorizations from the DOT in the form of exemption authorizations and statements of authorization to conduct current operations to and from the United States. Lan Argentina also holds the necessary DOT authorizations regarding code share with American Airlines, which have been granted indefinitely, subject to applicable conditions and all other required authorizations remaining in place for both air carriers.

Security. On November 19, 2001, the Congress of the United States passed, and the President signed into law, the Aviation and Transportation Security Act, also referred to as the Aviation Security Act. This law federalized substantially all aspects of civil aviation security and created the Transportation Security Administration (“TSA”), which took over security responsibilities previously held by the FAA. The TSA is an agency of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The Aviation Security Act requires, among other things, the implementation of certain security measures by airlines and airports, such as the requirement that all passenger bags be screened for explosives. Funding for airline and airport security required under the Aviation Security Act is provided in part by a US$2.50 per segment passenger security fee, subject to a US$10 per roundtrip cap; however, airlines are responsible for costs in excess of this fee. Implementation of the requirements of the Aviation Security Act has resulted in increased costs for airlines and their passengers. Since the events of September 11, 2001, Congress has mandated and the TSA has implemented numerous security procedures and requirements that have imposed and will continue to impose burdens on airlines, passengers and shippers.

Noise Restrictions. Under the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990 (“ANCA”), and related FAA regulations, aircraft that fly to the United States must comply with certain Stage 3 noise restrictions, which are currently the most stringent FAA noise requirements. All of our aircraft that fly to the United States meet the Stage 3 requirements.

Under the direction of the ICAO, governments are considering the creation of a new and more stringent noise standard than that contained in the ANCA. The ICAO adopted new noise standards in 2001 that established more stringent noise requirements for aircraft manufactured after January 1, 2006. In the U.S., legislation known as the “Vision 100—Century of Aviation Reauthorization Act,” which was signed into law in December 2003, required the FAA to issue regulations implementing Stage 4 noise standards consistent with recommendations adopted by the ICAO. FAA regulations require all aircraft designed and certified after January 1, 2006 to comply with Stage 4 noise restrictions.

FAA regulations also require compliance with the Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System, approved airborne wind shear warning system and aging aircraft regulations. Our entire fleet meets these requirements.

Brazil

Aeronautical Regulation.

The Brazilian aviation industry is regulated and overseen by the ANAC. The ANAC reports directly to the Brazilian Defense Ministry, which is subordinated by the Federal Executive Power of this country. Primarily on the basis of Law No. 11.182/2005, ANAC was created to regulate commercial aviation, air navigation, the assignment of domestic and international routes,  compliance with certain insurance requirements, flight operations, including personnel, aircraft and security standards, air traffic control, in this case sharing it activities and responsibilities with the Departamento de Controle do Espaço Aéreo (Department of Airspace Control, or “DECEA”),which is a public secretary also subordinated by the  Brazilian Defense Ministry, and airport management, in this last case sharing responsibilities with the Empresa Brasileira de Infra-Estrutura Aeroportuária (the Brazilian Airport Infrastructure Company, or “INFRAERO”), a public company that was created by Law No. 5862/72, and is responsible for administrating, operating and exploring Brazilian airports  industrially  and commercially.

47

We have obtained and maintain the necessary authority from the Brazilian government to conduct flight operations, including authorization and technical operative certificates from ANAC, the continuation of which is subject to ongoing compliance with applicable statutes, rules and regulations pertaining to the airline industry, including any rules and regulations that may be adopted in the future.

ANAC is the Brazilian civil aviation authority and it is responsible for supervising compliance with Brazilian laws and regulations relating to air navigation. Brazil is a contracting state and a permanent member of the ICAO. The ICAO establishes technical standards for the international aviation industry, which Brazilian authorities, represented by the Brazilian Defense Ministry, have incorporated into Brazilian laws and regulations. In the absence of an applicable Brazilian regulation concerning safety or maintenance, ANAC has incorporated by reference the majority of the ICAO’s technical standards.

Route Rights.

Domestic Routes. Brazilian airlines are not required to obtain permits in connection with domestic passenger or cargo transportation, but only to comply with the technical requirements established by ANAC. Based on the Brazilian Aeronautical Code (“CBA”) established by Law No. 7.565/86, non-Brazilian airlines are not permitted to provide domestic air service between destinations in Brazil. The same law prevents a foreign airline from creating a Brazilian subsidiary and entering the Brazilian domestic market using that subsidiary.

International Routes. Brazilian and non-Brazilian airlines providing services on international routes are also subject to a variety of bilateral civil air transport agreements that provide for the exchange of air traffic rights between Brazil and various other countries. International route rights, as well as the corresponding landing rights, are derived from a variety of air transport agreements negotiated between Brazil and foreign governments. Under such agreements, the government of one country grants the government of another country the right to designate one or more of its domestic airlines to operate scheduled services to certain destinations of the former and, in certain cases, to further connect to third-country destinations. In Brazil, when additional route frequencies to and from foreign cities become available, any eligible airline may apply to obtain them. If there is more than one applicant for a route frequency ANAC must carry out a public bid and award it to the elected airline. ANAC grants route frequencies subject to the condition that the recipient airline operate them on a permanent basis. If an airline fails to operate a route for a period of six months or more, ANAC may terminate its rights to that route. ANAC may also terminate its right if the recipient airline does not operate at least 80% of the frequency given for that specific route.

Airfare Pricing Policy. Brazilian and non-Brazilian airlines are permitted to establish their own international and domestic fares, in this last case only for Brazilian airlines, without government regulation, as long as they do not abuse any dominant market position they may enjoy. Airlines may file complaints before the Antitrust Court with respect to monopolistic or other pricing practices by other airlines that violate Brazil’s antitrust laws.

Registration of Aircraft. Aircraft registration in Brazil is managed by ANAC, which maintains the Brazilian Aeronautical Register, as regulated by the CBA. The CBA allows ANAC to permit registration of aircraft belonging to Brazilian and non-Brazilian individuals.

Safety. ANAC requires that all Brazilian aircraft must have a valid certificate of airworthiness issued by ANAC. In addition, ANAC will not issue maintenance permits to a Brazilian airline until it has assessed the airline’s maintenance capabilities. ANAC renews maintenance permits annually, and has approved our maintenance operations. Only ANAC certifies aircraft maintenance services and its personnel.

 Security. ANAC establishes and supervises the implementation of security standards and regulations for the Brazilian commercial aviation industry. Such standards and regulations are based on standards developed by international commercial aviation organizations. Each airline and airport in Brazil must submit an aviation security handbook to ANAC describing its security procedures for the day-to-day operations of commercial aviation and procedures for staff security training.

Brazilian Airport Policy. INFRAERO supervises and manages airports in Brazil, including the supervision of take-off and landing charges. INFRAERO proposes airport charges, which are approved by ANAC and are the same at all airports. At privatized airports, the airport administration manages the facilities under the supervision of ANAC.

48

Environmental and Noise Regulation. ANAC coordinates and supervises noise regulations by regulation 121, which established noise restriction applicable to aircraft in Brazil. There are no material environmental regulations or controls imposed specifically upon airlines companies, applicable to aircraft, other than Brazilian general environmental laws and regulations.

Colombia

Aeronautical Regulation.

The governmental entity in charge of regulating, directing and supervising the civil aviation is the Aeronáutica Civil (“AC”), a technical agency ascribed to the Ministry of Transportation. The AC is the aeronautical authority for the entire domestic territory, in charge of regulating and supervising the Colombian air space. The AC may interpret, apply and complement all civil aviation and air transportation regulation to ensure compliance with the Colombian Aeronautical Regulations (“RAC”). The AC also grants the necessary permits for air transportation.

Route Rights.

The AC grants operation permits to domestic and foreign carrier that intend to operate in, from and to Colombia. In the case of Colombian airlines in order to obtain the operational permit the company must comply with the RAC and fulfill legal, economic and technical requirements, to later be subject to public hearings where the public convenience and necessity of the service is considered. The same process must be followed to add national or international routes, whose concession is subject to the bilateral instruments entered into by Colombia. Routes cannot be transferred under any circumstance and there is no limit to foreign investment in domestic airlines.

Airfare Pricing Policy. Domestic and international cargo transportation fares are not restricted in Colombia, but are subject to market regulations.  In addition, there is a fuel surcharge that is regulated by the AC and that fluctuates in accordance with the cost of fuel.  This surcharge, which is regulated by the authority, is not mandatory for cargo and it can be applied without exceeding the regulated maximum.

Registration of Aircraft. The AC, through the Office of Aeronautical Registration, is in charge of handling the registration of aircraft that will be operated by Colombian airlines. Registration may be obtained by a registration process fully conducted in Colombia or through the validation in Colombia of a foreign registration. For such registration, the aircraft must be legally imported to the country and inspected by the aeronautical inspectors. This office is also in charge of property registrations, lease contracts and liens of the registered aircraft.

Safety. Aircraft registered in Colombia obtain an airworthiness certificate or a validation of the airworthiness certificate (if they operate under the approval of the foreign registration).

 Security. Following the guidelines of the OACI annexes, the AC issued an airport security program that must be strictly complied with by all the aircraft operators in the country as well as by airports.

Environmental and Noise Regulation. In Colombia, only aircraft that comply with category 3 noise limits may operate.  There are strict regulations to control noise during takeoffs and landings of the aircraft at the El Dorado Airport in Bogotá due to its location in an urban area.

Antitrust Regulation

The Chilean antitrust authority, which we refer to as the Antitrust Court (previously the Antitrust Commission), oversees antitrust matters, which are governed by Decree Law No. 211 of 1973, as amended, or the Antitrust Law. The Antitrust Law prohibits any entity from preventing, restricting or distorting competition in any market or any part of any market. The Antitrust Law also prohibits any business or businesses that have a dominant position in any market or a substantial part of any market from abusing that dominant position. An aggrieved person may sue for damages arising from a breach of Antitrust Law and/or file a complaint with the Antitrust Court requesting an order to enjoin the violation of the Antitrust Law. The Antitrust Court has the authority to impose a variety of sanctions for violations of the Antitrust Law, including termination of contracts contrary to the Antitrust Law, dissolution of a company and imposition of fines and daily penalties on businesses. Courts may award damages and other remedies (such as an injunction) in appropriate circumstances. Lan Airlines, Lan Express and Lan Cargo must comply with Chilean Antitrust Law that prohibits a carrier from abusing a dominant position in the market. As described above under “Route Rights—Air Fare Pricing Policy,” in October 1997, the Antitrust Court approved a specific self-regulatory fare plan for us consistent with the Antitrust Court’s directive to maintain a competitive environment within the domestic market.

49

Since October 1997, Lan Airlines and Lan Express follow a self-regulatory plan, which was modified and approved by the Tribunal de la Libre Competencia (the Competition Court) in July 2005. In February 2010, the Fiscalía Nacional Economica (the National Economic Prosecutor’s Office) finalized the investigation initiated in 2007 regarding our compliance with this self-regulatory plan and no further observations were made.

For more recent information regarding regulatory proceedings see “Other Financial Information—Legal and Arbitration Proceedings” under Item 8.

Property

Headquarters

Our main facilities are located on approximately five acres of land near the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport. The complex includes approximately 150,695 square feet of office space, 32,292 square feet of conference space and training facilities, 9,688 square feet of dining facilities and mock-up cabins used for crew instruction. In 2004, we adapted part of this building to meet our expanding training needs. This process included developing new rooms for technical instruction, in-flight and airport services.

During the fourth quarter of 2003, we moved some of our executive offices into a new building in a more central location in Santiago, Chile, where we initially occupied a total of four floors. In the first half of 2005 we added three more floors to accommodate our growth requirements. In 2007, in order to accommodate the Company’s growth, LAN leased two floors in an adjacent building (totaling 1,700 square meters), where some of LAN staff moved in February 2008. In 2009, to respond to the Company’s growth, LAN leased two additional floors in this building (totaling 1,200 square meters).  In 2010, new offices were leased east of Santiago to allow for Company growth and to implement projects such as “Host,” which involves changing our system of reservations, sales, inventory and passenger check-in. These additional offices add a total of 1,850 square meters to LAN’s property.

In addition, during 2011 we expect to add a new floor of 1,100 square meters to the Arrau Building for the new facilities of LAN Cargo.

Maintenance Base

Our 877,258 square feet maintenance base is located on a site that we own inside the grounds of the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport. This facility contains our aircraft hangar, warehouses, workshops and offices, as well as a 559,720 square feet aircraft parking area capable of accommodating up to seventeen short-haul aircraft. We have a five-floor, 53,820 square feet office building plus a 10,000 square feet office and workshop space. This facility is certified by several civil aviation authorities, including the United States’ FAA. As such, we are permitted to perform maintenance work for third parties at the facility. The FAA periodically inspects the facility to ensure its compliance with FAA standards. In 2005, we finalized the construction of an additional hangar, as well as 75,000 square feet of aircraft parking space, for US$2.1 million. During 2006 we started a new investment plan at this facility that includes building 64,580 square feet of additional aircraft parking space, a new 15,340 square foot building for offices and maintenance shops, a new 16,680 square feet engine shop and storage facility, and additional warehousing and external work space. The plan also included the upgrade of some of the current facilities, increasing parking space and building a new access road. Further, in 2006 we completed construction of an engine workshop with eight workstations and capacity for 36 engines, for a total investment of US$820,000. We also lease from the DGAC 193,750 square feet of space inside the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport for operational and service purposes.

In 2007, LAN approved a two-year capital expenditures plan earmarking approximately US$7.0 million for preparing our buildings and plants for the future growth of the Company and of its fleet.

50

During 2008, LAN finalized the construction of a 4,300 square feet warehouse especially designed for the storage of oil and flammable supplies, which complies with all the security standards required for its operation. We also upgraded some facilities such as bathrooms and dressing rooms in our maintenance base increasing the total area in 15,000 square feet.

During 2009, LAN finalized the construction of a new five-story building located in our maintenance base, which has a total surface of 49,500 square feet and represented an investment of US$5.8 million. This building has new workshops, a new food court with capacity for over 2,500 people in different shifts, two floors of new offices and meeting rooms.

Also, during 2009, LAN finalized the extension of the engine workshop, which added 900 square feet and represented an investment of US$0.5 million. This extension will be used mainly for the Boeing 777’s engine maintenance.

During 2010 LAN remodelled portions of the administrative offices in the Mario Bontempi Building and the Luis Ernesto Videla Buildings (“LEV Building”), which are located within the Company’s maintenance base inside the ground of the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benitez International Airport.  Currently we are working in adding a fifth floor to the LEV Building, which is expected to be finalized on May 2011.

Miami Facilities

We occupy a 36.3-acre site at the Miami International Airport that has been leased to us by the airport under a concession agreement. Our facilities include a 48,000 square foot corporate building, a 380,000 square foot cargo warehouse and a 783,000 square foot aircraft-parking platform, which were constructed and are now leased to us under a long-term contract by a North American developer. We began using these new facilities in September 2001 for our passenger and cargo offices (with the exception of our reservations and ticket offices). We converted 21,528 square feet of the warehouse into fully furbished offices during 2004.

During 2009, LAN began the extension of the cooling area in the cargo warehouse. This extension added 30,000 square feet and represented an investment of US$4.0 million. This extension was inaugurated on April 20, 2010.

During 2010, LAN signed a concession agreement with the Miami International Airport to add a new cargo warehouse for additional areas for future developments.

Other Facilities

We own a building and sixteen acres of land on the west side of the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport that houses a flight-training center. As of March 2007, this facility features three full-flight simulators for Boeing 767, Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 aircraft. We rent this flight-training center under a long-term lease to CAE Inc. (a leading Canadian company in the flight training business).  These full-flight simulators are being extended and are expected to be completed in the second semester of 2011.

We own a 661,980-square foot warehouse in Santiago, which includes 91,493 square feet of space for offices and other administrative facilities and 45,000 square foot distribution center. We use this facility to support Blue Express door-to-door cargo transport business.

In 2004, Fast Air Almacenes de Carga S.A. (“Fast Air”), one of our subsidiaries that operates import customs warehouses, began utilizing an import warehouse and office building at the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport. This 172,000 square foot building was developed in conjunction with two other operators.

We have also developed a recreational facility for our employees with Airbus’ support. The facility, denominated “Parque LAN,” is located near the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport. Parque LAN includes amenities such as a gymnasium, synthetic fields for multiple uses and swimming pools.

During 2008, we acquired a 43,000 square feet piece of land in Chile, which represented a US$12 million investment, for the purpose of constructing our new corporate building.

During 2008, we acquired a 161,000 square feet piece of land near the Lima airport, which will host new facilities for the Company.

51

We are currently working on the design and estimate that the construction will start during the first semester of 2011.

In March 2009, we began the construction of a new maintenance base in Argentina. The project includes a new hangar of 26,900 square feet with 9,600 square feet of offices, 1,070 square feet of workshops and an exterior platform of 5,300 square feet.  This project comprised a US$3.2 million investment and was completed in 2009.

LAN Shareholder Meeting

Prior to the LAN shareholders meeting, our board of directors will recommend that our shareholders vote to approve the mergers, changing our name to “LATAM Airlines Group S.A.” (which we refer to as the “name change”) and the other transactions contemplated by the implementation agreement (which we refer to as the “LAN board merger recommendation”).  We are required to take all action necessary to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting (which we refer to as the “LAN shareholders meeting”) of our shareholders for the purpose of voting to approve the mergers, the name change and the other transactions contemplated by the implementation agreement (which we refer to collectively as, the “LAN shareholder merger matters”), (ii) cause such vote to be taken and completed and (iii) include the LAN board recommendations in the materials distributed to our shareholders connection with the LAN shareholders meeting.  Under Chilean law and our by-laws, the mergers must be approved by the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of LAN common stock (which we refer to as the “requisite LAN shareholder approval”).  Approval of the LAN shareholder merger matters will be expressly conditioned upon, and will become effective only upon, the completion of the mergers.

TAM Shareholder Meeting

Prior to the TAM shareholders meeting, TAM will convene a meeting of the TAM board of directors to approve a list of three independent specialized companies experienced in valuing companies with similar size and operations to TAM (we refer to each such company as an “appraiser” and to such list as the “appraiser list”) to be submitted to holders of the free float shares at the TAM shareholders meeting.  TAM is required to take all action necessary to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its shareholders solely for the purpose of voting to select an appraiser from the appraiser list to prepare an appraisal report to determine the economic value of TAM and LAN (which we refer to as the “appraisal report”) in accordance with the terms of TAM’s by-laws and the rules of the Bovespa (which we refer to as the “TAM shareholders meeting”).  Under TAM’s by-laws and the rules of the Bovespa, the quorum for the first calling of the TAM shareholders meeting requires the presence in person or by proxy of holders of shares of TAM stock (other than the TAM controlling shareholder, the Amaro family, their respective affiliates and TAM and its subsidiaries) (which we refer to collectively as, the “free float shares”) representing at least 20% of the outstanding shares of TAM stock.  Under TAM’s by-laws and the rules of the Bovespa, any appraiser so selected must be approved by a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the free float shares present in person or by proxy at the TAM shareholders meeting at which the requisite quorum is present (we refer to this approval as the “requisite TAM shareholder approval”).

If a quorum is not present at the first calling of the TAM shareholders meeting, then TAM is required to call additional meetings of its shareholders solely for the same purpose until a quorum is established, and under TAM’s by-laws and the rules of the Bovespa the quorum for any such subsequently called meeting requires the presence in person or by proxy of any holder of at least one free float share.  If quorum is established at any TAM shareholders meeting and a vote of the holders of free float shares is taken but the requisite TAM shareholder approval is not obtained, then TAM is required to call additional meetings of its shareholders solely for the same purpose until the requisite TAM shareholder approval is obtained.  However, TAM is not required to call more than five shareholder meetings within a period of five months.

59

If after the appraiser prepares the appraisal report the holders of free float shares exercise their right under Brazilian law to request that TAM call a special meeting of the shareholders of TAM to vote upon whether or not to request a new appraisal report and to appoint a new appraiser, then TAM is required to take all action necessary to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold such a special meeting of the TAM shareholders no later than 45 days after the request for such special meeting.

Prior to the commencement of the exchange offer, TAM is required to convene a special meeting of the TAM board of directors to recommend that the holders of shares of TAM stock tender and sell such shares in the exchange offer (which we refer to as the “TAM board exchange offer recommendation”), and promptly after such meeting TAM must publicly announce the TAM board exchange offer recommendation.

Holdco Shareholder Meetings

The Amaro family is also required to cause Sister Holdco to (i) take all action necessary to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a special meeting of the shareholders of Sister Holdco  (we refer to this meeting as the “Sister Holdco shareholders meeting”) for the purpose of voting to approve (i) the Sister Holdco merger and the other transactions contemplated by the implementation agreement, (ii) the relevant audited financial statements and appraisal report and (iii) the by-laws of the surviving corporation of the Sister Holdco merger (which we refer to collectively as, the “Sister Holdco merger matters”).  Under Chilean Law and Sister Holdco ’s by-laws, the Sister Holdco merger matters must be approved by the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of Sister Holdco stock (we refer to this approval as the “requisite Sister Holdco shareholder approval”).  The requisite Sister Holdco shareholder approval will be expressly conditioned upon, and will become effective only upon, the completion of the mergers.

Further Actions; Notification

We and TAM have agreed to cooperate with each other and use (and cause our respective affiliates to use) our respective reasonable best efforts to take or cause to be taken all actions and to do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under the transaction agreements and applicable law to satisfy the conditions to the commencement and completion of the exchange offer described below under “—Conditions to the Commencement of the Exchange Offer” and “—Conditions to the Completion of the Exchange Offer” (we refer to these conditions collectively as “exchange offer conditions”) and to complete as soon as reasonably practicable the exchange offer, the mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the transaction agreements in accordance with the terms of the transaction agreements.  If any action or proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by any person challenging any such transaction, each party is required to cooperate in all respects with the other parties and use its respective reasonable best efforts to contest and resist any such action or proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts completion of such transaction so as to permit such completion by the fifth business day before December 30, 2011.  In addition, each party is required to, at its own cost and expense, defend any such actions or proceedings against it or its affiliates in connection with the transactions contemplated by the transaction agreements.

Actions on the Expiration Date; Completion of the Exchange Offer

The date on which the auction (leilão) established in the Edital will occur as specified in the Edital is referred to as the “expiration date”.

The transaction agreements describe the schedule of events on the expiration date as follows:

• at 2:00 p.m., São Paulo time, on the expiration date, the Bovespa will inform LAN, Holdco 2 and the Amaro family whether or not the minimum conditions have been satisfied;

• promptly after receiving that notice (but no later than 2:10 p.m., São Paulo time, on the expiration date), we will notify the Amaro family in writing as to whether all of the exchange offer conditions (other than the condition relating to the TEP Chile subscription) have been satisfied or irrevocably waived by us;

• if we state in that notice that all exchange offer conditions are satisfied or waived by us, then promptly after receiving our notice (but no later than 2:20 p.m., São Paulo time, on the expiration date), the Amaro family will inform us in writing whether or not all of the exchange offer conditions and the subscription conditions have been satisfied or irrevocably waived by them, and if all such conditions have been satisfied or waived by them, then promptly after sending that notice (but no later than 2:30 p.m., São Paulo time, on the expiration date) the Amaro family will subscribe and pay for all shares of TEP Chile stock in exchange for all of the voting common shares of TAM and non-voting preferred shares of TAM held by them, which we refer to as the “TEP Chile subscription.” The transaction agreements require that, as a result of the TEP Chile subscription, each member of the Amaro family will have the same ownership in TEP Chile as he or she had in the TAM controlling shareholder;

• prior to the date of this annual report on Form 20-F, TEP Chile subscribed for non-voting shares of Holdco 1 in exchange for all of the voting common shares of TAM to be contributed by the Amaro family to TEP Chile and subscribed for Sister Holdco shares in exchange for all of the non-voting shares of Holdco 1, 6.2% of the voting shares of Holdco 1 and all of the non-voting preferred shares of TAM to be contributed by the Amaro family to TEP Chile.  Immediately after subscription and payment of the TEP Chile subscription, TEP Chile will pay for the Holdco subscriptions by paying Holdco 1 with all of the voting common shares of TAM contributed by the Amaro family and pay Sister Holdco with all of the non-voting shares of Holdco 1, 6.2% of the voting shares of Holdco 1 and all of the non-voting preferred shares of TAM contributed by the Amaro family.  We refer to the subscriptions for shares of Holdco 1 and Sister Holdco as the “Holdco subscriptions” and the Holdco subscriptions and TEP Chile subscription collectively as the “subscriptions”;

• promptly after payment of the subscriptions (but no later than 2:40 p.m., São Paulo time, on the expiration date), we and the Amaro family will issue a press release announcing that all of the exchange offer conditions have been satisfied or irrevocably waived; and

• the auction will commence at 3:00 p.m., São Paulo time (or such other time as the Bovespa may determine), on the expiration date, and the Amaro family will cause Holdco 2 to complete the exchange offer on the expiration date by accepting for exchange and exchanging (with LAN shares issuable in the mergers) all TAM shares and TAM ADSs validly tendered into and not withdrawn from the exchange offer that Holdco 2 is obligated to purchase pursuant to the terms of the exchange offer. The completion of the exchange offer will be deemed to be the purchases of TAM shares and TAM ADSs pursuant to the auction, and such purchases will be settled on the third business day following the expiration date in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Bovespa.

However, if (x) either we or the Amaro family do not state that all of the conditions described above have been satisfied or irrevocably waived by us or (y) the TEP Chile subscription or any of the payments required pursuant to the subscriptions are not made in full when required by the transaction agreements, then the auction will not occur and the exchange offer will expire without the purchase of any TAM shares or TAM ADSs.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the auction commences at any time other than 3:00 p.m., São Paulo time, on the expiration date, then each of the times specified above (except for the last time that a withdrawal may be made) will be adjusted by the same amount that the actual time of the commencement of the Auction differs from 3:00 p.m., São Paulo time.

Extensions and Amendments

The exchange offer will initially expire on the date provided in the Edital.  However, if all of the exchange offer conditions are not satisfied at, or waived by the parties prior to, the scheduled expiration time for the exchange offer, then we or the Amaro family (if they are entitled to the benefit of the unsatisfied condition) may cause Holdco 2 to request permission from the CVM to extend the expiration time for the exchange offer in maximum increments of 30 days to no later than 28 days after the commencement date. If both we and the Amaro family agree to request a modification to the terms and conditions of the exchange offer or revocation of the exchange offer, the Amaro family is required to cause Holdco 2 to request permission from the CVM to modify the terms and conditions of the exchange offer or to revoke the exchange offer.  We and the Amaro family have agreed to cause Holdco 2 to request permission from the CVM to revoke the exchange offer if the transaction agreements terminate in accordance with their terms.

Post-Completion Board Meeting

We are required to convene a special meeting of our board of directors to approve the issuance of LAN common shares issuable pursuant to the mergers as soon as practicable, but not later than two business days following the completion of the exchange offer.

The Mergers; Directors and Officers; By-laws

Holdco 2 Merger

The implementation agreement provides for the merger of Holdco 2 with and into LAN after the completion of the exchange offer and prior to the settlement of the purchases made pursuant to the exchange offer.  As the surviving corporation, we will continue to exist following the Holdco 2 merger.  Pursuant to the Holdco 2 merger, each share of Holdco 2 stock (including those issuable pursuant to the settlement of the purchases made pursuant to the Auction) will be converted into a LAN common share at a ratio of 0.9 of a LAN common share per share of Holdco 2 stock (we refer to this ratio as the “Holdco 2 exchange ratio”).  Holders of TAM preferred shares (including those represented by TAM ADSs) will receive, by virtue of the Holdco 2 merger, LAN common shares in the following form in exchange for their TAM shares or TAM ADSs tendered and accepted for exchange in the exchange offer, depending on the form of TAM preferred shares tendered in the exchange offer:

• holders of TAM ADSs that are tendered and accepted for exchange in the exchange offer will receive LAN ADRs issued pursuant to the deposit agreement, dated as of March 25, 2003, among LAN, the LAN depositary, and the record holders and beneficial owners of LAN ADRs from time to time;

• holders of TAM shares registered under Resolution No. 2,689/00 of January 26, 2000 enacted by the CMN that are tendered and accepted for exchange in the exchange offer will receive LAN common shares in the form of LAN BDRs or LAN ADRs, as permitted by applicable law; and

• holders of all other TAM shares tendered and accepted for exchange in the exchange offer will receive LAN common shares in the form of BDRs representing such shares to be issued pursuant to a deposit agreement in customary form among LAN, a depositary agent to be selected by LAN and reasonably acceptable to TAM and the holders of LAN BDRs from time to time.

We are required to pay or cause to be paid all deposit fees and other expenses payable in connection with the issuance of such LAN ADRs and LAN BDRs.

Immediately after the completion of the Holdco 2 merger, we will contribute any TAM common shares beneficially owned by Holdco 2 immediately prior to such merger to Holdco 1 in exchange for new non-voting shares of Holdco 1 on a one-for-one basis.  After this contribution, we will increase our ownership percentage of the outstanding voting shares of Holdco 1 by converting our non-voting shares of Holdco 1 into voting shares of Holdco 1 to (A) 100% minus (B) 80% divided by the percentage of the outstanding TAM common shares owned by Holdco 1 determined on a primary basis after giving effect to such contribution.

Voting shares of Holdco 1 have the exclusive right to vote on, approve or consent to all matters that are subject to any vote of or approval by the shareholders of Holdco 1 under the applicable law of Chile or otherwise (other than the limited voting rights of the non-voting shares of Holdco 1) and have no economic rights other than the right to receive a nominal dividend (we refer to these rights as the “dividend rights” ).  Non-voting shares of Holdco 1 have the exclusive right to receive all dividends, distributions or other amounts payable by Holdco 1 in respect of any shares of its capital stock other than the dividend rights and have no right to vote on or approve any matter that is subject to any vote of or approval by the shareholders of Holdco 1 under applicable law of Chile or otherwise other than the rights to vote on and approve the matters requiring the approval of the holders of such shares under the applicable law of Chile or otherwise.

Sister Holdco Mergers

The implementation agreement also provides for the merger of Sister Holdco with and into LAN after the completion of the exchange offer and prior to the settlement of the purchases made pursuant to the exchange offer. As the surviving corporation, LAN will continue to exist following the Sister Holdco merger. We refer to the time that the mergers become effective as the “effective time.”

Pursuant to the Sister Holdco merger, each share of Sister Holdco stock will be converted into 0.90 of a LAN common share at a ratio of 0.9 of a LAN common share per share of Sister Holdco stock (we refer to this ratio as the “Sister Holdco exchange ratio” ). We will pay or cause to be paid all deposit fees and other expenses payable in connection with the issuance of such LAN common shares.

By-Laws

The parties are required to take all necessary action so that immediately following the effective time the by-laws of Holdco 1, Sister Holdco and Holdco 2 shall be in the forms attached to the exchange offer agreement.

Directors

We and the controlling shareholder are required to discuss in good faith and agree upon the individuals who will be directors of LAN, Holdco 1, TAM and their subsidiaries as of the effective time and to take all necessary action to ensure that immediately following, and on the same day as, the effective time, the individuals selected for election to the board of directors of LAN, Holdco 1, TAM and their subsidiaries by each of us and TEP Chile pursuant to the Holdco 1 shareholders agreement, by each of us and TEP Chile pursuant to the TAM shareholders agreement and by each of the LAN controlling shareholders and TEP Chile pursuant to the control group shareholders agreement shall be the directors of LAN, Holdco 1, TAM and their subsidiaries.  For a discussion of the parties rights to elect the directors of LAN, Holdco 1, TAM and their subsidiaries, see the “Shareholders Agreements—Voting Agreements.”

Effects of the Mergers

Capital Increase

If and when our shareholders approve the mergers, the share capital of LAN will be increased by an aggregate amount equal to the sum of the share capital of Holdco 2 and the share capital of Sister Holdco at such time. We refer to this capital increase as the “initial capital increase.” After the completion of the mergers, the share capital of LAN will be increased by the amount by which the net asset value of the shares of TAM stock contributed pursuant to the subscriptions exceeds, or is decreased by the amount by which such net asset value is less than, the initial capital increase.

Treatment of Holdco 2 Stock

At the effective time, each share of Holdco 2 Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time will be converted into the right to receive a fraction of a validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable LAN common share at the Holdco 2 exchange ratio, less applicable withholding taxes.  Each share of Sister Holdco stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time will be converted into the right to receive a fraction of a validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable LAN common share at the Sister Holdco exchange ratio, less applicable withholding taxes.

TAM Options

TAM and the TAM board of directors, as applicable, were required prior to the commencement of the exchange offer to adopt any resolutions and take any actions necessary to ensure that (a) from and after the effective time each TAM stock option outstanding immediately prior to the effective time, whether vested or unvested, will be exercisable only when vested and only for an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of TAM stock in respect of which such TAM stock option is exercisable, and (ii) the amount (if any) by which (x) the product of the Holdco 2 exchange ratio and the closing price of the LAN common shares on the SSE on the last business day prior to the date on which such TAM stock option was exercised exceeds (y) the exercise price per share of TAM stock under such TAM stock option, less any applicable taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment, and (b) none of execution, delivery or performance of the implementation agreement or the completion of the mergers or any other transactions contemplated by implementation agreement will, directly or indirectly, cause or result in any acceleration of the vesting of any TAM stock options, whether prior to, on or after the effective time.

Exchange Fund

Prior to the effective time, we will deposit or cause to be deposited with the US exchange agent, for the benefit of the holders of Holdco 2 stock and Sister Holdco stock, certificates or, at our option, evidence of shares in book-entry form, representing LAN common shares, including any cash to be paid in lieu of fractional LAN common shares, as discussed below in this section.  We refer to such certificates or evidence of book-entry form, as the case may be, for LAN common shares and such cash paid in lieu of fractional shares collectively as the “exchange fund.”  Any interest or income produced from investments of the exchange fund by the US exchange agent will not be deemed part of the exchange fund and will be payable to us.

Fractional Shares

No certificates or scrip representing fractional LAN common shares will be issued in the mergers or pursuant to the statutory squeeze-out and such fractional shares will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a shareholder of LAN. In lieu of fractional shares, we will pay each holder of a fractional LAN common share an amount in cash in US dollars equal to the product of (a) the fractional LAN common shares to which such holder would otherwise be entitled after taking into account all shares of Holdco 2 Stock or Sister Holdco stock owned of record by such holder immediately prior to the effective time, and (b) the closing price of the LAN common shares on the SSE on the last trading day immediately preceding the effective time (as reported in www.bolsadesantiago.com or, if not reported therein, by another authoritative source).

Statutory Squeeze-Out

After the completion of the exchange offer, if permitted under applicable Brazilian law, we (as the surviving corporation of the Holdco 2 merger) will effect a statutory squeeze-out of any holders of voting common shares of TAM and/or non-voting preferred shares of TAM (including those represented as TAM ADSs) other than those beneficially owned by the Amaro family that did not accept the exchange offer (we refer to these shares collectively as “non-tendered shares”).  In this statutory squeeze-out, the holders of non-tendered shares will have the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of LAN common shares that it would have received pursuant to the exchange offer in respect of its non-tendered shares (assuming it could have received fractional LAN common shares), and (ii) the closing price of the LAN common shares on the SSE on the day on which the exchange offer is completed.  After the squeeze-out of all remaining voting common shares of TAM, LAN will (i) contribute all voting ordinary shares of TAM acquired in the exchange offer to Holdco 1 in exchange for non-voting shares of Holdco 1, and (ii) increase its ownership percentage of the outstanding voting shares of Holdco 1 to 20% by converting its non-voting shares of Holdco 1 into voting shares of Holdco 1.

Delistings

Each of the TAM controlling shareholder and TAM are required to use its or their commercially reasonable efforts to cause (i) the TAM preferred shares to be delisted from the Bovespa if the delisting condition is satisfied with respect to such class of TAM stock and (ii) the TAM ADSs to be delisted from the NYSE as soon as practicable after the effective time.

Termination

The transaction agreements will terminate automatically if and when (i) the exchange offer expires in accordance with its terms or is revoked with the permission of CVM without the purchase of any TAM stock or (ii) if the product of 0.9 and the high end of the range of economic value of LAN per share of LAN common stock as determined by the appraiser at any time is less than the low end of the range of economic value of TAM per share of TAM stock as determined by the appraiser at such time.  In addition, LAN and the Amaro family may terminate the transaction agreements by mutual written consent.

The transaction agreements may also be terminated and the exchange offer and the mergers may be abandoned at any time prior to the commencement of the exchange offer as follows, whether before or after receipt of any requisite shareholder approvals:

· by either LAN or the Amaro family:

o if the exchange offer has not commenced by December 31, 2011 (as it may be extended as set forth below, which we refer to as the “outside date”); however if all conditions to commencement of the exchange offer, other than the conditions relating to receipt of all required approvals and absence of pending adverse actions and conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the closing to be held on the condition date, then the outside date may be extended until June 30, 2012 at the election of the Amaro family or LAN by written notice to the other party;

o if any governmental entity of competent jurisdiction refuses to grant any required approval (other than any approval required from CVM with respect to the inclusion in the Edital of any of the LAN’s conditions to the completion of the exchange offer) and such refusal has become final and nonappealable or any governmental entity of competent jurisdiction has enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any restraining order that has become final and non-appealable, and such event would give rise to the failure of the condition relating to receipt of all required approvals or absence of restraining order;

o if the vote of the holders of LAN common stock at the LAN shareholders meeting to approve the mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the transaction agreements has been taken and completed and the requisite LAN shareholder approval is not obtained; or

o if TAM has called five TAM shareholders meetings and a quorum is not present at any such meeting or if a quorum was present and the vote of the holders of the free float shares at the TAM shareholders meeting to select an appraiser is taken and completed but the requisite TAM shareholder approval is not obtained;

however, none of the termination rights described in the preceding bullet points will be available to any party whose material breach of a representation, warranty or covenant in any transaction agreement has been a principal cause of the failure of the exchange offer to commence by the outside date or the failure of the condition giving rise to such termination right, as applicable.

· by LAN:

o if TAM, the TAM controlling shareholder or the Amaro family has breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in the transaction agreements or any of such representations and warranties becomes untrue as of any date after the signing date, which breach or failure to perform or untruth (i) would give rise to the failure of the condition relating to accuracy of the representations and warranties of TAM, the TAM controlling shareholder and the Amaro family or compliance by any of them with their obligations under the transaction agreements and (ii) is not capable of being cured or, if capable of being cured, is not cured by TAM, the TAM controlling shareholder or the Amaro family, as applicable, by the earlier of (A) the day before the outside date and (B) the 30th calendar day following receipt of written notice of such breach or failure to perform from LAN;

o prior to the commencement of the exchange offer if CVM has refused to grant its approval to the inclusion in the Edital of any of the LAN’s conditions to the completion of the exchange offer; or

Termination Fees

TAM is required to pay us a fee equal to $200 million (which we refer to as the “TAM termination fee”) and reimburse LAN for all documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it or any of its subsidiaries in connection with the transaction agreements and the transactions contemplated by the transaction agreements up to a maximum amount of $25 million (no later than the second business day after TAM receives documentation for reimbursement) if:

• LAN terminates the transaction agreements due to a TAM board change of recommendation; or

• within 12 months after the date that a competing proposal termination occurs, TAM or any of its subsidiaries completes any transaction that constitutes a competing proposal with the person that made the competing proposal or any of its affiliates, enters into any binding or non-binding agreement with such person or any of its affiliates providing for a transaction that constitutes a competing proposal or the TAM board of directors approves or recommends to its shareholders or does not oppose any competing proposal made by such person or any of its affiliates (in each case regardless of whether such competing proposal was made or announced or became publicly known before or after termination of the transaction agreements and in any such case the TAM termination fee is payable on the date that is the first to occur of the event(s) referred to in this paragraph).

A “competing proposal termination” occurs if (i)

• (A) any person makes an alternative proposal with respect to TAM or LAN, or a “competing proposal,” to any party or its representatives,

• (B) a competing proposal by any person becomes publicly known, or

• (C) any person publicly announces an intention (whether or not conditional) to make a competing proposal; and

(ii) the transaction agreements automatically terminate solely because either of the minimum conditions is not satisfied or because an appraisal event occurs.

We are required to pay TAM a fee equal to $200 million (which refer to as the “LAN termination fee”) and reimburse TAM for all documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it or any of its subsidiaries in connection with the transaction agreements and the transactions contemplated by the transaction agreements up to a maximum amount of $25 million (no later than the second business day after we receive documentation for reimbursement) if:

• the Amaro family terminates the transaction agreements due to a LAN board change of recommendation; or

• within 12 months after the date that a competing proposal termination occurs, we or any of our subsidiaries complete any transaction that constitutes a competing proposal with the person that made the competing proposal or any of its affiliates, enter into any binding or non-binding agreement with such person or any of its affiliates providing for a transaction that constitutes a competing proposal or our board of directors approves or recommends to its shareholders or does not oppose any competing proposal made by such person or any of its affiliates (in each case regardless of whether such competing proposal was made or announced or became publicly known before or after termination of the transaction agreements and in any such case the LAN termination fee is payable on the date that is the first to occur of the event(s) referred to in this paragraph).

Remedies

If either we or TAM fails promptly to pay the amount due to the other party as a result of the termination of the transaction agreements under certain circumstances and, in order to obtain such payment, the other party commences a suit that results in a judgment against us or TAM for all or a portion of the TAM termination fee or the LAN termination fee, as applicable, such party is required to pay to the other party its costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) in connection with such suit, together with interest on the amount of the TAM termination fee or the LAN termination fee, as applicable, accruing from the date such payment was required to be made pursuant to the implementation agreement until the date of payment at the six-month LIBOR rate in effect on the date such payment was required to be made plus 3%.  The right to receive the fees and expenses payable described above under “—Termination Fees” will be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other remedies a party may have at law or in equity with respect to breaches of the implementation agreement by the other party.

Indemnification

Indemnification by LAN

We are required to indemnify, defend and hold the TAM Controlling Shareholder, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and shareholders harmless from and against any and all damages, losses, charges, liabilities, claims, demands, actions, suits, proceedings, payments, judgments, settlements, assessments, deficiencies, taxes, interest, penalties, and costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursement), which we refer to collectively as “indemnifiable losses,” incurred by any of them (whether or not involving a claim by any third party) arising out of or resulting from (i) the failure of the exchange offer to be completed solely as a result of any failure by LAN to confirm in writing to the controlling shareholders of TAM on the expiration date that any exchange offer condition waivable only by LAN (other than the squeeze-out condition) was satisfied if (but only if) such condition was in fact satisfied or (ii) any failure of the exchange offer to be completed after the controlling shareholders of TAM has paid for the TEP Chile subscription.

Indemnification by the TAM Controlling Shareholders

The controlling shareholders of TAM, jointly and severally, are required to indemnify, defend and hold us, our affiliates and our respective directors, officers, employees and shareholders harmless from and against any and all indemnifiable losses incurred by any of us (whether or not involving a claim by a third party) arising out of or resulting from any failure by the controlling shareholders of TAM to confirm in writing to us on the expiration date that any of the subscription conditions was satisfied if (but only if) such condition was in fact satisfied.

Access

Subject to certain exceptions, both we and TAM will, upon reasonable prior written notice, afford the other and its authorized representatives reasonable access to it and furnish the other information concerning its business, properties and personnel as may reasonably be requested until the completion of the exchange offer or termination of the transaction agreements, whichever occurs sooner.

Amendment

The parties are not permitted to amend transaction agreements after the commencement of the exchange offer.

Expenses

Except for the termination fees described above, each party is required to pay its own fees and expenses that it incurs in connection with the transaction agreements, the mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the transaction agreements, regardless of whether the exchange offer is commenced or the exchange offer and the mergers are completed, except that expenses incurred in connection with the printing and mailing of this offer to exchange/prospectus and the filing fee for the Form F-4 will be shared equally by LAN, on the one hand, and TAM controlling shareholders, on the other hand.

Choice of Law and Jurisdiction

The transaction agreements are governed by New York law with regard to all matters other than the authorization and execution of the transaction agreements, which are governed by the laws of each party’s jurisdiction of incorporation.

SHAREHOLDERS AGREEMENTS

As discussed above under the section entitled “Proposed Combinaton with TAM,” following the combination of LAN and TAM, TAM will continue to exist as a subsidiary of Holdco 1 (and as an indirect subsidiary of LAN) and our name will be changed to “LATAM Airlines Group S.A.,” or “LATAM.” Prior to the LAN shareholders meeting, we and the LAN controlling shareholders will enter into several shareholders agreements with TAM and TEP Chile to set forth our agreement with respect to the governance, management and operation of LAN, Holdco 1, TAM and their respective subsidiaries (we refer to these entities collectively as the “LATAM Group.”) following the effective time.  The shareholders agreements set forth an extensive set of principles that will apply to the corporate governance and organization of the LATAM Group following the effective time, which are summarized below.  Pursuant to their terms, the shareholders agreements will become effective only if and at the time that Holdco 1 becomes a holder of at least 80% of the outstanding voting common shares of TAM.

Governance and Management of LATAM Group

The control group shareholders agreement and the LAN-TEP shareholders agreement set forth the parties’ agreement on the governance and management of the LATAM Group following the effective time.  The key provisions of these agreements are summarized below but are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of these agreements, which are attached to this annual report on Form 20-F as Exhibits 4.11, and 4.12. For a full understanding of these agreements, we advise you to read these agreements carefully and in their entirety. We refer to the shareholders agreement among the LAN controlling shareholders and TEP Chile, which sets forth the parties’ agreement concerning the governance, management and operation of the LATAM Group, and voting and transfer of their respective LAN common shares and TEP Chile’s voting shares of Holdco 1, following the effective time as the “control group shareholders agreement.”  We refer to the shareholders agreement between us and TEP Chile, which sets forth our agreement concerning the governance, management and operation of the LATAM Group following the effective time as the “LAN-TEP shareholders agreement.”

Composition of the LATAM Board

Mr. Mauricio Rolim Amaro will be the chairman of our board of directors for the first two years following the effective time. If Mr. Amaro vacates this position for any reason within that two-year period, TEP Chile has the right to select a replacement to complete his term. Thereafter, our board of directors will appoint any of its members as the chairman of our board of directors, from time to time, in accordance with our by-laws.

LATAM Board Committees

Promptly after the effective time, our board of directors will establish four committees to review, discuss and make recommendations to our board of directors.  These include a Strategy Committee, a Leadership Committee, a Finance Committee and a Brand, Product and Frequent Flyer Program Committee.  The Strategy Committee will focus on the corporate strategy, current strategic issues and the three-year plans and budgets for the main business units and functional areas and high-level competitive strategy reviews.  The Leadership Committee will focus on, among other things, group culture, high-level organizational structure, appointment of the chief executive officer (Vice Presidente Ejecutivo), (LATAM CEO) of the LATAM Group (which we refer to as the “LATAM CEO”) and his or her other reports, corporate compensation philosophy, compensation structures and levels for the LATAM CEO and other key executives, succession or contingency planning for the LATAM CEO and performance assessment of the LATAM CEO.  The Finance Committee will be responsible for financial policies and strategy, capital structure, monitoring policy compliance, tax optimization strategy and the quality and reliability of financial information. Finally, the Brand and Frequent Flyer Program Committee will be responsible for brand strategies and brand building initiatives for the corporate and main business unit brands, the main characteristics of products and services for each of the main business units, frequent flyer program strategy and key program features and regular audit of brand performance.

Management of the LATAM Group

Enrique Cueto, currently our CEO, will be the LATAM CEO following the effective time.  The LATAM CEO will be the highest ranked officer of the LATAM Group and will report directly to the LATAM board of directors.  The LATAM CEO will be charged with the general supervision, direction and control of the business of the LATAM Group and certain other responsibilities set forth in the LAN-TEP shareholders agreement.  After any departure of the LATAM CEO, our board of directors will select his or her successor after receiving the recommendation of the Leadership Committee.

Ignacio Cueto, currently our president and chief operating officer (Gerente General), or the “COO”, will be the COO of LATAM, or the “LATAM COO,” following the effective time.  The LATAM COO will report directly to the LATAM CEO and will have general supervision, direction and control of the passenger and cargo operations of the LATAM Group, excluding those conducted by Holdco 1, TAM and its subsidiaries, and the international passenger business of the LATAM Group.  The LATAM COO, together with the TAM Group CEO, will recommend a candidate to the LATAM CEO to serve as the head of the international passenger business of the LATAM Group (including both long haul and regional operations), who shall report jointly to the LATAM COO and the TAM Group CEO.  The key executives of the LATAM Group (other than the LATAM CEO and those in the TAM Group) will be appointed by, and will report, directly or indirectly, to the LATAM CEO.

The head office of the LATAM Group will continue to be located in Santiago, Chile following the effective time.

Governance and Management of Holdco 1 and TAM

The Holdco 1 shareholders agreement and the TAM shareholders agreement set forth the parties’ agreement on the governance and management of Holdco 1, TAM and its subsidiaries (we refer to these entities collectively as the “TAM Group”) following the effective time.  The key provisions of these agreements are summarized below but are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of these agreements, which are attached to this annual report on Form 20-F as Exhibits 4.13, and 4.14. For a full understanding of these agreements, we advise you to read these agreements carefully and in their entirety. We refer to the shareholders agreement between us, Holdco 1 and TEP Chile, which sets forth our agreement concerning the governance, management and operation of Holdco 1, and voting and transfer of voting shares of Holdco 1, following the effective time as the “Holdco 1 shareholders agreement” and to the shareholders agreement between us, Holdco 1, TAM and TEP Chile, which sets forth our agreement concerning the governance, management and operation of TAM and its subsidiaries following the effective time as the “TAM shareholders agreement.”

Composition of the Holdco 1 and TAM Boards

The Holdco 1 shareholders agreement and TAM shareholders agreement generally provide for identical boards of directors and the same chief executive officer at Holdco 1 and TAM, with us appointing two directors and TEP Chile appointing four directors (including the chairman of the board of directors).  For the first two years after the effective time, the chairman of the Holdco 1 and TAM boards of directors will be Maria Cláudia Oliveira Amaro.

The control group shareholders agreement provides that the persons elected by or on behalf of the LAN controlling shareholders or the TAM Controlling Shareholder to our board of directors must also serve on the boards of directors of both Holdco 1 and TAM.

Management of Holdco 1 and TAM

The day-to-day business and affairs of Holdco 1 will be managed by the TAM Group CEO under the oversight of the board of directors of Holdco 1.  The day-to-day business and affairs of TAM will be managed by the TAM Diretoria under the oversight of the board of directors of TAM.  The “TAM Diretoria” will be comprised of the TAM Group CEO, the TAM CFO, the TAM COO and the TAM CCO.  Marco Bologna, currently the CEO of TAM, will be the initial CEO of Holdco 1 and TAM, or the “TAM Group CEO” and any successor CEO will be selected by us from three candidates proposed by TEP Chile.  The TAM Group CEO will have general supervision, direction and control of the business and operations of the TAM Group (other than the international passenger business of the LATAM Group) and will carry out all orders and resolutions of the board of directors of TAM.  The initial chief financial officer of TAM, or the “TAM CFO,” will be jointly selected by us and TEP Chile and any successor CFO will be selected by TEP Chile from three candidates proposed by us.  The chief operating officer of TAM, or the “TAM COO,” and chief commercial officer of TAM, or the “TAM CCO,” will be jointly selected and recommended to the TAM board of directors by the TAM Group CEO and TAM CFO and approved by the TAM board of directors.  These shareholders agreements also regulate the composition of the boards of directors of subsidiaries of TAM.

TAM will continue to be headquartered in São Paulo, Brazil following the effective time.

Voting Agreements, Transfers and Other Arrangements

Voting Agreements

The LAN controlling shareholders and TEP Chile have agreed in the control group shareholders agreement to vote their respective LAN common shares as follows after the effective time:

• until such time as TEP Chile sells any of its LAN common shares, the LAN controlling shareholders will vote their LAN common shares to elect to the LATAM board of directors any individual designated by TEP Chile unless TEP Chile beneficially owns enough LAN common shares to directly elect two directors to the LATAM board of directors;

• the parties agree to vote their LAN common shares to assist the other parties in removing and replacing the directors such other parties elected to the LATAM board of directors;

• the parties agree to consult with one another and use their good faith efforts to reach an agreement and act jointly on all actions (other than actions requiring supermajority approval under Chilean law) to be taken by the LATAM board of directors or the LAN shareholders;

• the parties agree to maintain the size of the LATAM board of directors at a total of nine directors and to maintain the quorum required for action by the LATAM board of directors at a majority of the total number of directors of the LATAM; and

• if, after good faith efforts to reach an agreement with respect to any action that requires supermajority approval under Chilean law and a mediation period, the parties do not reach such an agreement then TEP Chile has agreed to vote its shares on such supermajority matter as directed by the LAN controlling shareholders, which we refer to as a “directed vote.”

The parties to the Holdco 1 shareholders agreement and TAM shareholders agreement have agreed to vote their voting shares of Holdco 1 and shares of TAM so as to give effect to the agreements with respect to representation on the TAM board of directors discussed above.

Transfer Restrictions

Pursuant to the control group shareholders agreement, the LAN controlling shareholders and TEP Chile are subject to certain restrictions on sales, transfers and pledges of the LAN common shares and (in the case of TEP Chile only) the voting shares of Holdco 1 beneficially owned by them. Except for a limited amount of LAN common shares, neither the LAN controlling shareholders nor TEP Chile may sell any of its LAN common shares, and TEP Chile may not sell its voting shares of Holdco 1, until the third anniversary of the effective time.  Thereafter, sales of LAN common shares by either party are permitted, subject to (i) certain limitations on the volume and frequency of sales and (ii) in the case of TEP Chile only, certain minimum ownership requirements. After the tenth anniversary of the effective time, TEP Chile may sell all of its LAN common shares and voting shares of Holdco 1 as a block, subject to (x) approval of the transferee by the LATAM board of directors, (y) the condition that the sale not have an adverse effect and (z) a right of first offer in favor of the LAN controlling shareholders, which we refer to collectively as “block sale provisions.” An “adverse effect” is defined in the control group shareholders agreement to mean a material adverse effect on our and Holdco 1’s ownership of TAM and its subsidiaries or the ability of TAM and its subsidiaries to operate their airline businesses worldwide. The LAN controlling shareholders have agreed to transfer any voting shares of Holdco 1 acquired pursuant to such right of first offer to us for the same consideration paid for such shares.

The block sale provisions will also apply to any transfer by TEP Chile of LAN common shares or voting shares of Holdco 1 beneficially owned by it after the third anniversary of the effective time if a release event (as described below) occurs or if TEP Chile is required to make two or more directed votes during any twenty-four month period at two meetings (consecutive or not) of the shareholders of LAN held at least twelve months apart and we have has not yet fully exercised our conversion option described below. A “release event” will occur if (i) a capital increase of LATAM occurs, (ii) TEP Chile does not fully exercise the preemptive rights granted to it under applicable law in Chile with respect to such capital increase in respect of all of its restricted LAN common shares, and (iii) after such capital increase is completed, the individual designated by TEP Chile for election to the LATAM board of directors with the assistance of the LAN controlling shareholders is not elected to the LATAM board of directors.

In addition, after the tenth anniversary of the effective time and after the occurrence of the full ownership trigger date (as described below under the “—Conversion Option” section), TEP Chile may sell all or any portion of its LAN common shares, subject to (x) a right of first offer in favor of the LAN controlling shareholders and (y) the restrictions on sales of LAN common shares more than once in a 12-month period.

The control group shareholders agreement provides certain exceptions to these restrictions on transfer for certain pledges of LAN common shares made by the parties and for transfers to affiliates, in each case under certain limited circumstances.

In addition, TEP Chile agreed in the Holdco 1 shareholders agreement not to vote its voting shares of Holdco 1, or to take any other action, in support of any transfer by Holdco 1 of any equity securities or convertible securities issued by it or by any of TAM or its subsidiaries without our prior written consent.

Call Option

We agreed in the Holdco 1 shareholders agreement not to sell or transfer any shares of TAM stock to any person (other than our affiliates) at any time when TEP Chile owns any voting shares of Holdco 1.  However, we will have the right to effect such a sale or transfer if, at the same time as such sale or transfer, we (or our assignee) acquires all the voting shares of Holdco 1 beneficially owned by TEP Chile for an amount equal to TEP Chile’s then current tax basis in such shares and any costs TEP Chile is required to incur to effect such sale or transfer.  TEP Chile has irrevocably granted us the assignable right to purchase all of the voting shares of Holdco 1 beneficially owned by TEP Chile in connection with any such sale.

Conversion Option

Pursuant to the control group shareholders agreement and the Holdco 1 shareholders agreement, we have the unilateral right to convert our shares of non-voting stock of Holdco 1 into shares of voting stock of Holdco 1 to the maximum extent allowed under law and to increase our representation on the TAM and Holdco 1 boards of directors if and when permitted in accordance with foreign ownership control laws in Brazil and other applicable laws if the conversion would not have an adverse effect (as defined above under the “—Transfer Restrictions” section).

On or after the tenth anniversary of the effective time and after we have fully converted all of our shares of non-voting stock of Holdco 1 into shares of voting stock of Holdco 1 as permitted by Brazilian law and other applicable laws, we will have the right to purchase all of the voting shares of Holdco 1 held by the controlling shareholders of TAM for an amount equal to their then current tax basis in such shares and any costs incurred by them to effect such sale, which amount we refer to as the “sale consideration.” If we do not timely exercise our right to purchase these shares or if, after the tenth anniversary of the effective time, we have the right under applicable law in Brazil and other applicable law to fully convert all the shares of non-voting stock of Holdco 1 beneficially owned by us into shares of voting stock of Holdco 1 and such conversion would not have an adverse effect but we have not fully exercised such right within a specified period, then the controlling shareholders of TAM will have the right to put their shares of voting stock of Holdco 1 to us for an amount equal to the sale consideration.

Acquisitions of TAM Stock

The parties have agreed that all acquisitions of TAM common shares by any member of the LATAM Group from and after the effective time will be made by Holdco 1.

ITEM 18.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lan Airlines S.A. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010 in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.  Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).  The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 15.  Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits.  We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.  Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk.  Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

F-2

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following describes the principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements.

2.1.  Preparation

The consolidated financial statements of Lan Airlines SA are for the period ended December 31, 2010 and have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historic-cost criterion, although modified by the valuation at fair value of certain financial instruments.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to use its judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies.

F-18

2.2.  Consolidation

(a) Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all the entities (including special-purpose entities) over which the Company has the power to control the financial and operating policies, which are generally accompanied by a holding of more than half of the voting rights. In evaluating whether the Company controls another entity, the existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered. The subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is passed to the Company and they are excluded from the consolidation on the date they cease to be so controlled.

The Company uses the acquisition-cost method or purchase accounting for the purchase of subsidiaries. The cost of acquisition is the fair value of the assets delivered, the equity instruments issued and the liabilities incurred or assumed on the exchange date. The identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are initially valued at their fair value on the date of acquisition, regardless of the extent of the non-controlling interests. The excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of the Company’s holding in the net identifiable assets acquired is shown as goodwill. If the cost is less than the fair value of the net assets of the acquired subsidiary, the difference is recorded directly in the consolidated statement of income (Note 2.6).

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between the Company’s entities are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment loss of the asset transferred. When necessary in order to ensure uniformity with the policies adopted by the Company, the accounting policies of the subsidiaries are modified.

(b)  Transactions and minority holdings

The Group applies the policy of considering transactions with non-controlling interests, when not related to loss of control, as equity transactions without an effect on income.

(c) Investees or associates

Investees or associates are all entities over which Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries exercise a significant influence but has no control, this usually arise by a holding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are booked using the equity method and are initially recorded at their cost.

The participation of Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries in the losses or gains after the acquisition of its investees or associates is shown in results, and its participation in post acquisition movements in reserves of investees or associates are shown in reserves. Post-acquisition movement is adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. When the participation of Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries in the losses of an investee or associate is equal to or more than its holding in it, including any other non guaranteed account receivable, Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries will not show the additional losses unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the investee or associate.

Gains or losses for dilution in investees or associates are shown in the consolidated statement of income.

2.3. Foreign currency transactions

(a)      Presentation and functional currencies

The items included in the financial statements of each of the entities of Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries are valued using the currency of the main economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). The functional currency of Lan Airlines S.A. is the United States dollar which is also the currency of presentation of the consolidated financial statements of Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries.

F-19

(b) Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated to the functional currency using the exchange rates on the transaction dates. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from the liquidation of these transactions and from the translation at the closing exchange rates of the monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are shown in the consolidated statement of income.

(c) Group entities

The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyper-inflationary economy) that have a functional currency other than the currency of presentation are translated to the currency of presentation as follows:

(i) Assets and liabilities of each consolidated statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing exchange rate on the consolidated statement of financial position date;

(ii) The revenues and expenses of each results account are translated at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates,

(iii) All the resultant exchange differences are shown as a separate component in net equity.

In the consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of a net investment in foreign entities (or local with a functional currency different to that of the parent), and of loans and other foreign currency instruments designated as hedges for these investments, are recorded within net equity. When the investment is sold, these exchange differences are shown in the consolidated statement of income as part of the loss or gain on the sale.

Adjustments to the goodwill and fair value arising from the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and are translated at the period-end exchange rate.

2.4. Property, plant and equipment

The land of Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries is recognized at cost less any accumulated impairment loss. The rest of the property, plant and equipment is shown, initially and subsequently, at historic cost less the corresponding depreciation and any impairment loss, except for certain land and minor equipment that were  revalued on first time adoption of IFRS.

The amounts of advance payments to aircraft manufacturers are capitalized by the Company under Construction in progress until receipt of the aircraft.

Subsequent costs (replacement of components, improvements, extensions, etc.) are included in the value of the initial asset or shown as a separate asset only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the elements of property, plant and equipment are going to flow to the Company and the cost of the element can be determined reliably. The value of the component replaced is written off in the books at the time of replacement. The rest of the repairs and maintenance are charged to the result of the year in which they are incurred.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over their estimated technical useful lives; except in the case of certain technical components which are depreciated on the basis of cycles and hours flown.

The residual value and useful life of assets is revised, and adjusted if necessary, once a year.

When the carrying amount of an asset is higher than its estimated recoverable amount, its value is reduced immediately to its recoverable amount (Note 2.8).

Losses and gains on the sale of property, plant and equipment are calculated by comparing the proceeds obtained with the book value and are included in the consolidated statement of income.

2.5. Intangible assets

Computer software

F-20

Licenses for computer software acquired are capitalized on the basis of the costs incurred in acquiring them and preparing them for using the specific software. These costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives.

Expenses related to the development or maintenance of computer software which do not qualify for capitalization, are shown as an expense when incurred. Certain costs directly related to the production of unique and identifiable computer software controlled by the Company, are shown as intangible assets when met all the criteria for capitalization. The direct costs include the expenses of the personnel who develop the computer software and other costs directly associated.

Development costs of computer software shown as assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives.

F-21

2.6. Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the Company’s participation in the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary on the acquisition date. Goodwill related to acquisitions of subsidiaries is not amortized but tested for impairment annually and when there are indications that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Gains and losses on the sale of an entity include the book amount of the goodwill related to the entity sold.

2.7. Borrowing costs

Interest costs incurred for the construction of any qualified asset are capitalized over the time necessary for completing and preparing the asset for its intended use. Other interest costs are charged to income and expenses.

2.8. Losses for impairment of non-financial assets

Assets that have an indefinite useful life, and developing IT projects, are not subject to amortization and are subject to annual testing for impairment losses. Assets subject to amortization are subjected to impairment tests whenever any event or change in circumstances indicates that the book value of the assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recorded when the book value is greater than the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. In evaluating the impairment, the assets are grouped at the lowest level for which cash flows are separately identifiable (CGUs). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that have suffered an impairment loss are subjected to a test once a year to check that there has been no reversal of the loss.

2.9. Financial assets

The Company classifies its financial instruments in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit and loss, loans and accounts receivable and financial assets held to maturity. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial instruments were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial instruments at the time of initial recognition, which occurs on the date of transition.

(a) Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are financial instruments held for trading and those in their initial classification has been designated as at fair value through profit or loss. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired mainly for the purpose of being sold in the near future or when these assets are managed and measured using  fair value. Derivatives are also classified as acquired for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as cash and cash equivalents, held for trading, and other financial assets, designated on initial recognition.

(b) Loans and accounts receivable

Loans and accounts receivable are non-derivative financial instruments with fixed or determinable payments not traded on an active market. These items are classified in current assets except for those with maturity over 12 months from the date of the consolidated statement of financial position, which are classified as non-current assets. Loans and accounts receivable are included in trade and other accounts receivable in the consolidated statement of financial position (Note 2.12).

F-22

(c) Financial assets held to maturity

Financial assets held to maturity are non-derivative financial instruments with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Company’s management has the positive intention and capacity to hold until their maturity. Should the Company sell a not-insignificant amount of the financial assets held to their maturity, the whole category is reclassified as available for sale. These financial instruments held to maturity  are included in non-current assets, except for those maturity equal to or less than 12 months from the consolidated statement of financial position, which are classified as other current financial assets.

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on the trade-date – the date on which the group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in the income statement. Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Held to maturity investments are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate.

The company valued at the date of each consolidated statement of financial position if there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets may have suffered an impairment loss. For the case of financial assets held to maturity, if any evidence of impairment, the amount of the provision is  the difference between the book value of the assets and the present value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate.

2.10. Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities

Derivatives are booked initially at fair value on the date the derivative contracts are signed and later they continue to be valued at their fair value. The method for booking the resultant loss or gain depends on whether the derivative has been designated as a hedging instrument and, if so, the nature of the item hedged. The Company designates certain derivatives as:

(a) Hedge of the fair value of recognized assets (fair value hedge);

(b) Hedge of an identified risk associated with a recognized liability or an expected highly-probable transaction (cash-flow hedge), or

(c) Derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting.

The Company documents, at the inception of each transaction, the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, as well as its objectives for managing risk and the strategy for carrying out various hedging transaction. The Company also documents its assessment, both at the beginning and on an ongoing basis, as to whether the derivatives used in the hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the items being hedged.

The total fair value of the hedging derivatives is booked as an other non-current financial asset or liability if the remaining maturity of the item hedged is over 12 months, and as an other current financial asset or liability if the remaining term of the item hedged is less than 12 months.

Derivatives not booked as hedges are classified as other financial assets or liabilities, current in the case that their remaining maturity is less than 12 months and non-current in the case that it is more than 12 months.

F-23

(a) Fair value hedges

Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as fair value hedges are shown in the consolidated statement of income, together with any change in the fair value of the asset or liability hedged that is attributable to the risk being hedged.

(b) Cash flow hedges

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is shown in net equity. The loss or gain relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the consolidated statement of income under “Other gains (losses)”.

In the case of variable interest-rate hedges, this means that the amounts recognized in equity are reclassified to results within financial cost at the same time the associated debts accrue interest.

For fuel price hedges, the amounts shown in equity are reclassified to income as Cost of sales to the extent that the fuel subject to the hedge is used.

When hedging instruments mature or are sold or when they do not meet the requirements to be accounted for as hedges, any gain or loss accumulated in net equity until that moment remains in equity and is reclassified to the consolidated statement of income when the hedged transaction is finally recognized. When it is expected that the hedged transaction is no longer going to occur, the gain or loss accumulated in net equity is taken immediately to the consolidated statement of income as “Other gains (losses)”.

(c) Derivatives not booked as a hedge

Certain derivatives are not booked as a hedge. The changes in fair value of any derivative instrument that is not booked as a hedge are shown immediately in the consolidated statement of income, in “Other gains (losses)”.

2.11. Inventories

Inventories, detailed in note 10, are shown at the lower of cost and their net realizable value. The cost is determined on the basis of the weighted average cost method. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

2.12. Trade and other accounts receivable

Trade accounts receivable are shown initially at their fair value and later at their amortized cost in accordance with the effective interest rate method, less the allowance for impairment losses.  An allowance for impairment losses of trade accounts receivable is made when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to recover all the amounts due according to the original terms of the accounts receivable. The existence of significant financial difficulties on the part of the debtor, the probability that the debtor is entering bankruptcy or financial reorganization and the default or delay in making payments are considered as indicators that the receivable has been impaired. The amount of the provision is the difference between the book value of the assets and the present value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. The book value of the asset is reduced by the amount of the allowance and the loss is shown in the consolidated statement of income in Cost of sales. When an account receivable is written off, it is charged to the allowance account for accounts receivable.

F-24

2.13.           Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and bank balances, time deposits in financial institutions, and other short-term and easily-liquidated investments.

2.14. Capital

The common shares are classified as net equity.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new shares or options are shown in net equity as a deduction from the proceeds obtained.

2.15. Trade and other accounts payable

Trade payables and other accounts payables are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently at amortized cost are valued according to the method of the effective interest rate

2.16.           Interest-bearing loans

Financial liabilities are shown initially at their fair value, net of the costs incurred in the transaction. Later, these financial liabilities are valued at their amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds obtained (net of the necessary arrangement costs) and the repayment value, is shown in the consolidated statement of income during the term of the debt, according to the effective interest rate method.

Financial liabilities are classified in current and non-current liabilities according to the contractual payment dates of the nominal principal.

2.17. Deferred taxes

Deferred taxes are calculated, according to the balance-sheet method, on the temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their book values. However, if the temporary differences arise from the initial recognition of a liability or an asset in a transaction different from a business combination that at the time of the transaction does not affect the accounting result or the tax gain or loss, they are not booked. The deferred tax is determined using the tax rates (and laws), that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the end of the reporting period, and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realized or the deferred tax liability discharged.

Deferred tax assets are recognised when it is probable that there will be sufficient future tax earnings with which tocompensate the temporary differences.

Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except for deferred income tax liability where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

2.18. Employee benefits

(a) Personnel vacations

The Company recognizes the expense for personnel vacations on an accrual basis.

(b) Share-based compensation

The compensation plans implemented by the granting of options for the subscription and payment of shares are shown in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS 2: Share based payments, showing the effect of the fair value of the options granted as a charge to remuneration on a straight-line basis between the date of granting such options and the date on which these become vested.

F-25

(c)      Post-employment and other long-term benefits

Provisions are made for these obligations by the application of the actuarial value of the accrued cost of the benefit method, and take into account estimates of future permanence, mortality rates and future wage increases determined on the basis of actuarial calculations. The discount rates are determined by reference to market interest-rate curves. Actuarial gains or losses are shown in results for the period when they occur.

(d) Incentives

The Company has an annual incentives plan for its personnel for compliance with objectives and individual contribution to the results. The incentives eventually granted consist of a given number or portion of monthly remuneration and the provision is made on the basis of the amount estimated for distribution.

2.19. Provisions

Provisions are recognised when:

(i) The Company has a present legal or implicit obligation as a result of past events.

(ii) Itis probable that some payment is going to be necessary to settle an obligation, and

(iii) The amount has been reliably estimated.

Provisions are shown at the present value of the disbursements expected to be necessary for settling the obligation using the Company’s best estimates. The pre-tax discount rate used for determining the present value reflects current market evaluations on the date of the financial statements of the time value of money, plus the specific risks related to the liability in question.

F-26

2.20. Revenue recognition

Revenues include the fair value of the proceeds received or to be received on sales of goods and rendering services in the ordinary course of the Company’s business. Revenues are shown net of refunds, rebates and discounts.

(a) Rendering of services

a.1 Passenger and cargo transport

The Company shows revenue from the transportation of passengers and cargo once the service has been provided.

a.2 Frequent flyer program

The Company currently has a frequent flyer program called Lan Pass, whose objective is customer loyalty through the delivery of kilometers every time that members fly with the Company or its alliance partners, use the services of entities registered with the program or make purchases with an associated credit card. The kilometers earned can be exchanged for flights tickets or other services of associated entities. The consolidated financial statements include liabilities for this concept (deferred income), according to the estimate of the valuation established for the kilometers accumulated pending use at that date, in accordance with IFRIC 13: Customer loyalty programs.

a.3 Other revenues

The Company records revenues for other services when these have been provided.

(b) Interest income

Interest income is booked using the effective interest rate method.

(c) Dividend income

Dividend income is booked when the right to receive the payment is established.

2.21. Leases

(a) When the Company is the lessee – financial lease

The Company leases certain property, plant and equipment in which it has substantially all the risk and benefits deriving from the ownership; they are therefore classified as financial leases. Financial leases are capitalized at the start of the lease at the lower of the fair value of the asset leased and the present value of the minimum lease payments.

Every lease payment is separated between the liability component and the financial expenses so as to obtain a constant interest rate over the outstanding amount of the debt. The corresponding leasing obligations, net of financial charges, are included in Interest-bearing loans. The element of interest in the financial cost is charged in the consolidated statement of income over the lease period so that it produces a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The asset acquired under a financial lease is depreciated over the shorter of its useful life and the lease term and is included in Property, plant and equipment.

F-27

(b) When the Company is the lessee – operating lease

Leases, in which the lessor retains an important part of the risks and benefits deriving from ownership, are classified as operating leases. Payments with respect to operating leases (net of any incentive received from the lessor) are charged in the consolidated statement of income on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

2.22. Non-current assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale

Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as assets held for sale and are shown at the lesser of their book value and the fair value less costs to sell.

2.23.  Maintenance

 The costs incurred for scheduled major maintenance of the aircraft’s fuselage and engines are capitalized and depreciated until the next maintenance. The depreciation rate is determined on technical grounds, according to its use expressed based on cycles and flight hours.

The unscheduled maintenances of aircraft and engines, and minor maintenances, are charged to income as incurred.

2.24. Environmental costs

Disbursements related to environmental protection are charged to income when incurred.

NOTE 3 - FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

3.1. Financial risk factors

The Company’s activities are exposed to different financial risks: (a) market risk, (b) credit risk, and (c) liquidity risk. The Company’s global risk management program is focused on uncertainty in the financial markets and tries to minimize the potential adverse effects on the net margin. The Company uses derivatives to hedge part of these risks.

(a) Market risk

Due to the nature of its operations, the Company is exposed to market risks such as:

(i) fuel-price risk, (ii) interest-rate risk, and (iii) local exchange-rate risk. In order to fully or partially hedge all these risks, the Company operates with derivative instruments to fix or limit rises in the underlying assets.

(i) Fuel-price risk:

Fluctuations in fuel prices largely depend on the global supply and demand for oil, decisions taken by Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), global refining capacity, stock levels maintained, and weather and geopolitical factors.

The Company purchases an aircraft fuel called Jet Fuel grade 54. There is a benchmark price in the international market for this underlying asset, which is US Gulf Coast Jet 54. However, the futures market for this asset has a low liquidity index and as a result the Company hedges its exposure using West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude, which has a high correlation with Jet Fuel and is a highly liquid asset and therefore has advantages in comparison to the use of the U.S. Gulf Coast Jet 54 index.

During 2010, the Company booked gains of US$ 1 million on fuel hedging. During 2009, the Company recognized losses of US$ 128.7 million for the same reason.

At December 31, 2010, the market value of its fuel positions amounted to US$ 45.8 million.  At the December 31, 2009, this market value was US$ 13.6 million. The following tables show the notional value of the purchase positions together with the derivatives contracted for the different periods:

Sensitivity analysis

A drop in fuel prices positively affects the Company through a reduction in costs. However, this drop negatively affects contracted positions as these are to protect the Company against the risk of a rise in prices. The policy therefore is to maintain a hedge-free percentage in order to be competitive in the event of a drop in prices.

As the current positions do not represent changes in cash flows, but a variation in the exposure to the market value, the current hedge positions have no impact on income (they are booked as cash flow hedge contracts, so a variation in the fuel price has an impact on the Company’s net equity).

The following table shows the sensitivity analysis of the financial instruments according to reasonable changes in the fuel price and their effect on equity. The term of the projection was defined until the end of the last current fuel hedge contract, being the last business day of 2011. The calculations were made considering a parallel movement of US$ 5 per barrel in the curve of the WTI crude futures benchmark price at the end of December 2010, and 2009.

	Positions as of December 31, 2010		Positions as of December 31, 2009
Benchmarck price	effect on equity		effect on equity
WTI (US$ per barrel)	(millions of US$)		(millions of US$)
+ 5		+16.7		+ 14.6
-5		-15.7		-13.6

The Company seeks to reduce the risk of fuel price rises to ensure it is not left at a disadvantage compared to its competitors in the event of a sharp price fall. The Company therefore uses hedge instruments like swaps, options and collars to partially hedge the fuel volumes consumed.

According to that required by IAS 39, during the periods presented, the company has not recorded amounts for ineffectiveness in the consolidated income statement.

Given the fuel hedge structure to December 31, 2010, which considers a hedge-free portion, a vertical fall by US$ 5 in the WTI benchmark price (the monthly daily average) for each month would have meant a saving of approximately US$ 27.1 million in the cost of total fuel consumption. A vertical rise by US$ 5 in the WTI benchmark price (the monthly daily average) would have meant an impact of approximately US$ 26.0 million of increased fuel costs for 2010.

(ii) Cash flow interest-rate risk:

The fluctuation in interest rates depends heavily on the state of the global economy. An improvement in long-term economic prospects moves long-term rates upward while a drop causes a decline through market effects. However, if we consider government intervention in periods of economic recession, it is usual to reduce interest rates to stimulate aggregate demand by making credit more accessible and increasing production (in the same way interest rates are raised at times of economic expansion). The present uncertainty about how the market and governments will react, and thus how interest rates will change, creates a risk related to the Company’s debt at floating interest rates and its investments.

F-30

Cash flow interest rate risk equates to the risk of future cash flows of the financial instruments due to the fluctuation in interest rates on the market. The Company’s exposure to risks of changes in market interest rates is mainly related to long-term obligations which accrued interest at a floating rate.

In order to reduce the risk of an eventual rise in interest rates, the Company has signed interest-rate swap and call option contracts in order to eliminate more than 94% of its exposure to interest-rate fluctuations. The Company is therefore exposed to a small portion of the fluctuations in the 90 days London Inter Bank Offer Rate (LIBOR) and the nominal Chilean Active Banking Rate (TAB) 180-day rate.

The following table shows the sensitivity of changes in financial obligations that are not hedged against interest-rate variations.  These changes are considered reasonably possible based on current market conditions.

	Positions as of December 31, 2010		Positions as of December 31, 2009
Increase (decrease)	effect on pre-tax earnings		effect on pre-tax earnings
in libor 3 months	(millions of US$)		(millions of US$)
+100 basis points		-1.18		-0.87
-100 basis points		+1.18		+0.87

Changes in market conditions produce a change in the valuation of current financial instruments hedging interest rates, causing an effect on the Company’s equity (because they are booked as cash-flow hedges). These changes are considered reasonably possible based on current market conditions. The calculations were made increasing (decreasing) vertically 100 basis points of the three-month Libor futures curve.

Increase	Positions as of December 31, 2010			Positions as of December 31, 2009
futures curve	effect on equity			effect on equity
months	(millions of US$)			(millions of US$)
+100 basis points		42.39			49.64
-100 basis points		(45.35	)		(53.23	)

There are limitations in the method used for the sensitivity analysis and relate to those provided by the market. These are because the levels indicated by the futures curves are not necessarily met and will change in each period.

According to that required by IAS 39, during the periods presented, the company has not recorded amounts for ineffectiveness in the consolidated income statement.

(iii)       Local exchange-rate risk:

The functional currency used by the parent Company is the US dollar in terms of setting prices for its services, the composition of its classified statements of financial position and effects on its operating income. It sells most of its services in US dollars or prices equivalent to the US dollar, and a large part of its expenses are denominated in US dollars or equivalents of the US dollar, particularly fuel costs, aeronautic charges, aircraft leases, insurance and aircraft components and accessories. Remuneration expenses are denominated in local currencies.

The Company maintains its cargo and passenger business tariffs in US dollars. There is a mix in the domestic markets as sales in Peru are in local currency but the prices are indexed to the US dollar. In Chile and Argentina, tariffs are in local currency without any kind of indexation. In the case of the domestic business in Ecuador, both tariffs and sales are in dollars. The Company is therefore exposed to fluctuations in the different currencies, mainly: Chilean peso, Argentine peso, Uruguayan peso, Peruvian sol, Brazilian real, Australian dollar and New Zealand dollar; of these, the largest exposure is in Chilean pesos.

F-31

The company manages its exposure to foreign currency risk through hedging selected balances using forward exchange contracts and cross currency swaps. The impact of remaining, unhedged exposures is monitored on an ongoing basis and for the periods presented has not been relevant to the company’s results.

(b)      Credit risk

Credit risk occurs when the counterparty to a financial agreement or instrument fails to discharge an obligation due.

The Company is exposed to credit risk due to its operative and financial activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, investments in other kinds of instruments, exchange-rate transactions and the contracting of derivative instruments or options.

(i) Financial activities

Cash surpluses that remain after the financing of assets necessary for the operation are invested according to credit limits approved by the Company’s board, mainly in time deposits with different financial institutions, short-term mutual funds, and easily-liquidated corporate and sovereign bonds with short remaining maturities. These investments are booked as cash and cash equivalents and as investments held to maturity.

In order to reduce counterparty risk and to ensure that the risk assumed is known and managed by the Company, investments are diversified among different banking institutions (both local and international). The Company evaluates the credit standing of each counterparty and the levels of investment, based on (i) their credit rating, (ii) the equity size of the counterparty, and (iii) investment limits according to the Company’s level of liquidity. According to these three parameters, the Company chooses the most restrictive parameter of the previous three and based on this, establishes limits for operations with each counterparty. All other financial assets with contractual cash flows other than trade receivables are considered by the Company to have minimal credit risk, as they relate principally to the instruments issued by counterparties with high credit quality. The maximum credit loss associated with these instruments is their carrying value.

The Company has no guarantees to mitigate this exposure.

(ii)  Operational activities

The Company has four large sales “clusters”: travel agencies, cargo agents, airlines and credit-card administrators. The first three are governed by IATA (International Air Transport Association), international organization comprising most of the airlines that represent over 90% of scheduled commercial traffic and one of its main objectives is to regulate the financial transactions between airlines and travel agents and cargo. When an agency or airline does not pay their debt, they are excluded from operating with IATA’s member airlines. In the case of credit-card administrators, they are fully guaranteed by the issuing institutions.

The exposure consists of the term granted, and this fluctuates between 1 and 45 days.

One of the tools the Company uses for reducing credit risk is to participate in global entities related to the industry, such as IATA, Business Sales Processing (BSP), Cargo Account Settlement Systems (“CASS”), IATA Clearing House (“ICH”) and banks (credit cards). These institutions fulfill the role of collectors and distributors between airlines and travel and cargo agencies. In the case of the Clearing House, it acts as an offsetting entity between airlines for the services provided between them. A reduction in term and implementation of guarantees has been achieved through these entities.

F-32

Credit quality of financial assets

The credit evaluation system used by the Company for trade receivables is that provided by IATA. Internal systems are also used for particular evaluations or specific markets based on trade reports available on the local market. The internal classification system is complementary to the external one, i.e. for agencies or airlines not members of IATA, the internal demands are greater. The bad-debt rate in the principal countries where the Company has a presence is insignificant.

(c) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk represents the risk that the Company has no funds to meet its obligations.

Because of the cyclical nature of the business, the operation, and its investment and financing needs related to the acquisition of new aircraft and renewal of its fleet, plus the financing needs related to market-risk hedges, the Company requires liquid funds to meet its payment obligations.

The Company therefore manages its cash and cash equivalents and its financial assets, matching the term of investments with those of its obligations. Its policy is that the average term of its investments may not exceed the average term of its obligations. This cash and cash equivalents position is invested in highly-liquid short-term instruments through first-class financial entities.

The Company has future obligations related to financial leases, operating leases, maturities of other bank borrowings, derivative contracts and aircraft purchase contracts.

The Company has fuel and interest rate hedging, strategies involving derivatives contracts with different financial institutions. The Company has margin facilities with each financial institution in order to regulate the mutual exposure produced by changes in the market valuation of the derivatives. During 2008, with the fall in the fuel price, the Company was obliged to provide cash guarantees for this concept.

At the end of 2009, the Company had provided US$ 40.4 million in derivative margin guarantees, for cash and stand-by letters of credit. At the end of December 31, 2010, have provided US$ 38.1 millions in security for cash due at maturity and acquisition of fuel contracts and rates, rising fuel prices and falling interest rates.

3.2. Capital risk management

The Company’s objectives,  with respect to the management of capital, are (i) to safeguard it in order to continue as an on-going business, (ii) to seek a return for its shareholders, and (iii) to maintain an optimum capital structure and reduce its cost.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company could adjust the amount of the dividends payable to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

The Company monitors the capital according to the leverage ratio, in line with sector practice. This ratio is calculated as net adjusted debt to capital. Net adjusted debt is total financial debt plus 8 times the operating lease payments of the last 12 months, less total cash (measured as the sum of cash and cash equivalents plus marketable securities). Capital is the amount of net equity without the impact of the market value of derivatives, plus net adjusted debt.

Currently the company's strategy, which has not changed since 2007, and has consisted of maintaining a leverage ratio of between 70% and 80% and an international credit rating of higher than BBB- (the minimum required for being considered investment grade). The leverage ratios as of December 31, 2010, and December 31, 2009, were as follows:

	As of			As of
	December 31,			December 31,
	2010			2009

Net Equity		1,296,814			1,098,827
Net coverage reserves		107,050			92,230
Total Capital		4,715,141			4,143,266
Leverage ratio		70.2	%		71.3	%

3.3. Estimates of fair value

At December 31, 2010, the Company maintained financial instruments that should be recorded at fair value. These include:

F-36

Investments in short-term Mutual Funds (cash equivalent),

Interest rate derivative contracts,

Fuel derivative contracts,

Currency derivative contracts, and

Investment funds.

The Company has classified the fair value measurement using a hierarchy that reflects the level of information used in the assessment. This hierarchy consists of 3 levels (I) fair value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, (II) fair value based on inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (III) fair value based on inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets, such as investments acquired for trading, is based on quoted market prices at the close of the period used the current price buyer. The fair value of financial assets not traded in active markets (derivative contracts) is determined using valuation techniques that maximize use of available market information. Valuation techniques generally used by the Company are quoted market prices of similar instruments and / or estimating the present value of future cash flows using forward price curves of period-end market.

The following table shows the classification of financial instruments at fair value at December 31, 2010 depending on the level of information used in the assessment:

	Fair value		Fair value measurements using values

	2010		Level I		Level II		Level III

Additionally, at December 31, 2010, the Company has financial instruments which are not recorded at fair value. In order to meet the disclosure requirements of fair values the Company has valued these instruments as shown in the table below:

Other accounts payable, non-currents		368,372		368,372		371,483		371,483

The book values of accounts receivable and payable are assumed to approximate their fair values, due to their short-term nature. In the case of cash on hand, bank balances, deposits and others accounts payables, non-currents, fair value approximates their carrying values.

The fair value of other financial liabilities is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate for similar financial instruments. In the case of other financial assets, valuation was performed according to market prices at year end.

F-38

NOTE 4 - ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS

The Company has used estimates to value and book some of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and commitments; these relate principally to:

1.  The evaluation of possible impairment losses for certain assets.

2.  The useful lives and residual values of fixed and intangible assets.

3.  The criteria employed in the valuation of certain assets.

4.  Air tickets sold that are not actually used.

5. The calculation of deferred income at the period-end, corresponding to the valuation of kilometers credited to holders of the Lan Pass loyalty card which have not yet been used.

6.  The need provisions and where required the determination of their values.

7.  The recoverability of deferred tax assets.

These estimates are made on the basis of the best information available on the matters analyzed.

In any case, it is possible that events will require them to be modified in the future, in which case the effects would be accounted for prospectively.

The Company recorded allowances when there is evidence of impairment of trade receivables.The criteria used to determine that there is objective evidence of impairment losses are the maturity of the portfolio, specific acts of damage (default) and specific market signals.

Maturity	Impairment
Judicial and extra-judicial collection Assets		100	%
Over 1 year		100	%
Betwen 6 and 12 months		50	%

The movement in the allowance for impairment loss of trade accounts and other accounts receivables from January 01, 2009 and December 31, 2010 is as follows:

F-46

	ThUS$
As of January 01, 2009		(22,790	)
Write-offs		6,110

Write-offs		5,039
Increase in allowance		(3,299	)
Balance as of December 31, 2010		(22,077	)

Once extra-judicial and judicial collection efforts are exhausted, the assets are written off against the allowance. The Company only uses the allowance method rather than direct write-off, to ensure control.

Historic and current re-negotiations are not relevant and the policy is to analyze case by case in order to classify them according to the existence of risk determining whether it is appropriate to re-classify accounts as in pre-judicial recovery. If such re-classification is justified, an allowance is made for the account, whether overdue or falling due.

The maximum credit-risk exposure at the date of presentation of the information is the fair value of each one of the categories of accounts receivable indicated above:

The Company performed an impairment test based on the value in use and no impairment was identified.

The value in use of those cash generating units to which goodwill has been assigned has been determined assuming that yields, occupation factors and fleet capacity are maintained at current obtainable levels. The company projects cash flows for number periods which is consistent with its internal budgeting process and thereafter calculates a terminal value. Growth rates applied in determining these terminal values are consistent with long range economic forecasts for the relevant markets in which these cash generating units operate. The determined cash flows are discounted at a rate which takes into account the time value of money and risks related to those cash generating units which have not been taken into account in estimation of the units’ future cash flows.

The movement of goodwill from January 01, 2009 to December 31, 2010, is as follows:

Opening balance as of January 01, 2009	62,927

(2) Covers the significant variations in cash flows associated with market risk implicit in the changes in the 3-month Libor interest rate for long-term loans incurred in the acquisition of aircraft. These contracts are recorded as cash flow hedges.

F-79

(3) Covers the significant variations in cash flows associated with market risk implicit in the increases in the 3 and 6 months Libor interest rates for long-term loans incurred in the acquisition of aircraft and bank loans. These contracts are recorded as cash flow hedges.

(4) Covers the significant variations in cash flows associated with market risk implicit in the changes in the TAB 180 days interest rate and the dollar exchange rate. These contracts are recorded as cash flow hedges.

(5) Covers significant variations in cash flows associated with market risk implicit in the changes in the price of future fuel purchases.

(6) Covers the significant variations in cash flows associated with market risk implicit in the changes in the price of future fuel purchases.

(7) Covers investments denominated in Chilean pesos to changes in the US Dollar - Chilean Peso exchange rate, with the aim of ensuring investment in dollars.

During the periods presented, the Company only maintains cash flow hedges. In the case of fuel hedges, future fuel purchases will occur and impact results from 1 to 12 months from the consolidated statement of financial position date, whereas in the case of interest rate hedging, they will occur and will impact results over the life of the related loans, which are valid for 12 years. Regarding coverage rate and currency, the impact on outcomes will occur continuously throughout the life of the contract (3 years), while cash flows will occur quarterly. Finally, the results will impact investment hedges steadily over the life of the investment (up to 3 months), while the cash flows occur at the maturity of the investment.

During the periods presented, all hedged highly probable forecast transactions have occurred.

During the periods presented, there has been no hedge ineffectiveness recognized in the consolidated statement of income.

Since none of the coverage resulted in the recognition of a nonfinancial asset, no portion of the result of the derivatives recognized in equity was transferred to the initial value of such assets.

European Commission Provision:

(a) This provision was established because of the investigation begun by the Directorate General for Competition of the European Commission against more than 25 cargo airlines, including Lan Cargo S.A., as part of a global investigation begun in 2006 regarding possible unfair competition on the air cargo market.  This was a joint investigation by the European and U.S.A. authorities.  The start of the investigation was disclosed through a material event notice dated December 27, 2007.  The U.S.A. portion of the global investigation concluded with respect to Lan Cargo S.A. and its subsidiary, Aerolíneas Brasileiras S.A. (“ABSA”) by the signature of a Plea Agreement with the U.S.A.  Department of Justice, as disclosed in a material event notice on January 21, 2009.

(b) A significant matter report dated November 9, 2010, reported that the General Direction of Competition had issued its decision  on this case (the "decision"), under which it imposed fines totaling € 799,445,000 (seven hundred and ninety nine million four hundred and forty-five thousand  Euro) for infringement of European Union regulations on free competition against eleven (11) airlines, among which are Lan Airlines S.A. and Lan Cargo S.A., Air Canada, Air France, KLM, British Airways, Cargolux, Cathay Pacific, Japan Airlines, Qanta Airways, SAS and Singapore Airlines.

(c) Jointly, Lan Airlines S.A. and Lan Cargo S.A., have been fined in the amount of € 8,220,000 (approximately equivalent to ThUS$ 10,916) for such infractions, which was provisioned in the financial statements of LAN. This is a minor fine in comparison to the original decision, as there was a significant reduction in fine because Lan cooperated during the investigation.

(d) On January 25, 2011, Lan Airlines S.A. and Lan Cargo S.A. appealed the decision before the Court of Justice of the European Union. According to the above, the Company decided to make a provision for the amount of ThUS$ 10,916.
