Ladies and Gentlemen:

THE REPUBLIC OF CHILE (the “Republic” or “Chile”) proposes to issue and sell to Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Itau BBA USA Securities, Inc. and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. (the “Underwriters”) US$1,458,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 2.450% Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”). The Republic expects to apply the net proceeds of the sale of the Notes for general purposes of the government. The Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”) between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended by the first supplemental indenture, dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) a copy of which was filed on May 5, 2015 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) as an exhibit to a post-effective amendment to registration statement No. 333-183920, under Schedule B (“Schedule B”) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Notes to be issued by the Republic will be evidenced initially by one or more Registered Global Notes (each a “Registered Global Note”) deposited with a custodian for, and registered in the name of a nominee of, the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”). The Notes will be in registered form without coupons. The Notes will be issued in denominations of US$200,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof. Except where the context otherwise requires, terms not otherwise defined in this Underwriting Agreement (the “Agreement”) shall have the meanings specified in the Indenture or in the Notes.

 

  1.

Issue of Notes, Prospectus and Publicity

(a)    Agreement to Issue Notes. The Republic agrees to issue and sell the Notes to the Underwriters as provided in this Agreement on May 12, 2020 or such later date, not being later than May 19, 2020, as the Republic and the Underwriters may agree (the “Closing Date”).

 

1


(b)    Payment of the Notes.

(i)    Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to purchase at a price equal to 99.958% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued interest, if any, from May 12, 2020 to the Closing Date (the aggregate amount of the purchase price paid by the Underwriters in respect of the Notes being the “Purchase Price”), subject to the adjustments referred to in Section 9(c), the principal amount of the Notes set forth opposite its name on Schedule II, as such amount may be adjusted pursuant to Section 11 hereof.

(c)    Terms of the Notes. The Notes will be issued in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and will be in the form and contain such terms as set forth therein. The Indenture and this Agreement are together referred to herein as the “Agreements.”

(d)    Publicity. Except as may be required by law and except as provided for in this Agreement, no announcement or other publicity in newspapers, journals or marketing materials relating to the Notes shall be made or issued directly or indirectly by or on behalf of any of the parties hereto without the prior approval of the Republic and the Underwriters; provided that this shall not apply to customary publications made by the Underwriters in connection with the marketing of the Notes.

 

  2.

Stabilization

(a)    The Underwriters, for their own accounts, may to the extent permitted by applicable law, regulations and rules, engage in transactions that stabilize, maintain, or otherwise affect the price of the Notes, including without limitation, overallotting the offering, creating a short position and bidding for and purchasing Notes to cover such short positions, and bidding for and purchasing Notes to stabilize the price of the Notes. In doing so, the Underwriters shall act as principals and not as agents of the Republic and any loss resulting from over-allotment or stabilization will be borne, and any profit arising therefrom shall be retained, by the Underwriters. Such transactions will be undertaken at the offices of the Underwriters (or any person acting for any of them) and on the International Securities Market (the “ISM”) of the London Stock Exchange (the “Stock Exchange”). However, stabilization may not necessarily occur. Any stabilization action may begin on or after the date of adequate public disclosure of the final price of the Notes and, if begun, may be ended at any time, but it must end no later than 30 days after the issue date of the Notes or no later than 60 days after the date of the allotment of the Notes.

(b)    Nothing in this Section 2 shall be construed as requiring the Republic to issue more than US$1,458,000,000 in principal amount of the Notes.

 

  3.

Agreements by the Underwriters

(a)    Purchase of Notes. The Underwriters agree severally, and not jointly, to purchase the Notes at the Purchase Price on the Closing Date subject to the terms of this Agreement.

 

2


(b)    Restrictions. Each of the Underwriters severally represents, warrants and agrees that it and, where applicable, each of its affiliates that participate in the distribution of the Notes has complied and will comply with the terms set out in Schedule I.

The Underwriters have not entered nor will they enter into any contractual arrangement with respect to the distribution or delivery of the Notes, except with their affiliates or with the prior written consent of the Republic pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(c)    Sales Among Affiliates of the Underwriters. The Republic acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters may sell to any of their affiliates Notes purchased by any Underwriter, and that any of such affiliates may sell to other such affiliates or to the Underwriters Notes purchased by such affiliates.

 

  4.

Listing

(a)    Application for Listing. The Republic confirms that it will make or cause to be made an application, on behalf of the Republic, for the Notes to be admitted to trading on the ISM.

(b)    Supply of Information. The Republic agrees to supply to the Underwriters for delivery to the Stock Exchange copies of the Final Prospectus (as defined in Section 5(a)(i)), on behalf of the Republic, and such other documents, information and undertakings as may be required for the purpose of obtaining such listing.

 

  5.

Representations and Warranties of the Republic

The Republic represents and warrants on the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, unless otherwise stated, to each of the Underwriters as follows:

(a)    Registration Statement.

(i)    The Republic meets the requirements for use of Schedule B. The Republic has filed with the Commission registration statements under Schedule B (Nos. 333-222495 and 333-235463) covering the registration of the Notes under the Securities Act and including the related base prospectus (the “Base Prospectus”) and any documents included by reference therein. Such registration statements have been declared effective by the Commission, as amended as of the date and time of this Agreement (the “Execution Time”). Such registration statements, as amended as of the Execution Time, together with the Base Prospectus constituting a part thereof, any prospectus supplement relating to the Notes and all documents incorporated by reference thereto, meet the requirements set forth in Commission Release No. 33-6424 (the “Release”) and Schedule B. The Republic has filed a preliminary prospectus supplement with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (“Rule 424(b)”), which has been furnished to the Underwriters (the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”), and proposes to file with the Commission, pursuant to Rule 424(b), a supplement to the Base Prospectus (the “Prospectus Supplement”) relating to the Notes and the plan of distribution thereof and has previously advised you of all other

 

3


information (financial, statistical and other), if any, with respect to the Republic to be set forth therein. Such registration statement (including the Base Prospectus and any documents incorporated by reference in such registration statement), each as amended as of the Execution Time, including the exhibits thereto and all documents incorporated by reference in the Base Prospectus contained therein, if any, each as amended, at the date and time it became effective (the “Effective Time”), are hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement.” The Base Prospectus together with the Prospectus Supplement in the form in which it shall be first filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) after the Execution Time is hereinafter referred to as the “Final Prospectus,” and any reference to any amendment or supplement to the Final Prospectus or the Base Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any annual reports on Form 18-K and any amendments to such Form 18-K on Form 18-K/A (including all exhibits thereto) (collectively, a “Form 18-K”) filed after the Execution Time, under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) and incorporated by reference in the Final Prospectus.

(ii)    Prior to the termination of the offering of the Notes, the Republic will not file any amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Final Prospectus that shall not have previously been furnished to the Underwriters or of which the Underwriters shall not previously have been advised or to which the Underwriters shall have reasonably objected in writing.

(iii)    At the Effective Time, the Registration Statement and any amendment thereof did, and when the Final Prospectus is first filed in accordance with Rule 424(b) and on the Closing Date, the Final Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto will, comply in all material respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, including the Release and Schedule B. The (i) Registration Statement, as amended at the Effective Time and at the Execution Time, on the date of any filing pursuant to Rule 424(b) and on the Closing Date, did not contain or will not contain, as applicable, an untrue statement of a material fact or omit or will not omit, as applicable, to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (ii) Final Prospectus, on the date it is first filed in accordance with Rule 424(b), on the date of any amendment or supplement thereto and on the Closing Date, will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Republic makes no representations or warranties with respect to any statements or omissions contained herein, in the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with the information furnished in writing to the Republic by the Underwriters, expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus, it being understood and agreed that the only information furnished by the Underwriters is set forth in Sections 10(a) and 10(b).

 

4


(iv)    The Disclosure Package (as defined herein), at the date and time of the first sale of the Notes to the public (4:18 p.m. New York City Time on the date of this Agreement, the “Initial Sale Time”), when taken as a whole, did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (as defined below) identified in Schedule III, as supplemented by and taken together with the Disclosure Package as of the Initial Sale Time, did not, and as of the Closing Date will not, include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The preceding sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from the Disclosure Package based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Republic by any Underwriter specifically for use therein. The (i) Base Prospectus, as amended and supplemented as of the Execution Time, (ii) Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, (iii) issuer free writing prospectuses as defined in Rule 433 under the Securities Act (each an “Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”), if any, identified in Schedule IV hereto, and (iv) any other free writing prospectus as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act (each a “Free Writing Prospectus”) that the parties hereto shall hereafter expressly agree in writing to treat as part of this Disclosure Package, are hereinafter referred to as the “Disclosure Package.”

(v)    The documents, if any, incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, when they became effective or were filed with the Commission, as the case may be (or, if any amendment with respect to any such document was filed, when such amendment was filed), complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, and none of such documents contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; and any further documents so filed and incorporated by reference in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus or any further amendment or supplement thereto when such documents become effective or are filed with the Commission, as the case may be, will conform in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; provided that the Republic makes no representations or warranties with respect to any statements or omissions contained in the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Republic by the Underwriters, expressly for use in the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus, it being understood and agreed that the only information furnished by the Underwriters is set forth in Sections 10(a) and 10(b).

(b)    Powers and Authority. The Republic has full power and authority to execute and deliver each of this Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes and all other documents and instruments to be executed and delivered by the Republic hereunder and thereunder (including the Authorization contemplated thereunder), to incur the obligations to be incurred by it as provided herein or therein, and to perform and observe the provisions hereof and thereof on its part to be performed or observed and to issue and sell the Notes and to perform the terms thereof.

(c)    Authorization. The filing of the Registration Statement and the issuance and sale of the Notes and the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes by the Republic and all other documents to be executed and delivered by the Republic hereunder and thereunder (including the Authorization contemplated thereunder) and the performance of its obligations hereunder and thereunder have been duly authorized by the Republic.

(d)    Validity of Agreements. Each of this Agreement and the Indenture and the Authorization contemplated thereunder has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Republic and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Republic enforceable against the Republic in accordance with the terms thereof, subject as to enforcement to bankruptcy, liquidation, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general equity principles and except that, with respect to this Agreement, the enforceability of rights of indemnity or contribution provided herein may be limited by federal and state and other applicable laws and public policies underlying these laws.

(e)    Validity of Notes. The Notes have been duly authorized and, when duly executed and authenticated in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and delivered and paid for in accordance with this Agreement, will be valid and binding obligations of the Republic entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

(f)    Consents. No consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any court, government or governmental agency or body or any third party is required to be taken, fulfilled, performed or obtained in the Republic or elsewhere (including, without limitation, the obtaining of any consent, approval or license or the making of any filing or registration) for the execution and delivery of the Agreements by the Republic, or for the issue, sale, delivery and performance of the Notes as contemplated herein and in the Registration Statement, the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by the Agreements and the compliance by the Republic with the terms of the Agreements, as the case may be, or for the validity or enforceability of the Agreements and the Notes against the Republic, except for the authorizations contained in Article 3 of Law No. 21,192, published in the Official Gazette on December 19, 2019, (Law No. 21,192), Law No. 21,225 published in the Official Gazette on April 2, 2020, (“Law No. 21,225”), and in Supreme Decree No. 507, issued on April 3, 2020, and published in the Official Gazette on April 25, 2020 of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic (the “Supreme Decree”), which have been duly obtained and are in full force and effect on the date hereof and will be in full force and effect on the Closing Date.

 

6


(g)    Compliance. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Indenture, the issuance, sale and delivery of the Notes, the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by the Agreements and the Notes (and compliance with the terms hereof and thereof) do not and will not (i) in any material respect conflict with or result in a breach of any constitutional provision, any provision of any treaty, convention, statute, law, regulation, decree, judgment, order of any government, governmental body or court, domestic or foreign court order or similar authority binding upon the Republic, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any fiscal agency agreement, trust deed, mortgage or other agreement to which the Republic or any National Governmental Agency is a party or by which any of them or any of their respective properties or assets are bound or (iii) result in the creation of any lien or encumbrance upon such properties or assets, except, in cases of clauses (ii) and (iii), for those violations and defaults which individually and, in the aggregate, are not material to the Republic when taken as a whole. As used herein, the term “National Governmental Agency” means any ministry, department, agency or autonomous regulatory authority of the Republic.

(h)    Event of Default. No event has occurred and is continuing or circumstance arisen which, had the Notes already been issued, would (with the giving of notice and/or the passage of time) constitute an Event of Default under the Notes.

(i)    Litigation. Other than as set forth or contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, there are no pending or, to the best knowledge of the Republic after due inquiry, threatened actions or proceedings (foreign or domestic) against or affecting the Republic or any National Governmental Agency which, if determined adversely to the Republic or any such National Governmental Agency, would individually or in the aggregate have a materially adverse effect on the financial condition or revenues and expenditures of the Republic or would materially adversely affect the ability of the Republic to perform its obligations under the Agreements, or which are otherwise material in the context of the issue of the Notes.

(j)    Taxes and Filing of Documents. There is no tax, duty, levy, impost, deduction, governmental charge or withholding imposed by the Republic or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein by virtue of the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Agreements (except for court clerk and consular fees in connection with enforcement proceedings) or to ensure the legality, enforceability, validity or admissibility into evidence of the Agreements or of any other document to be furnished thereunder, and it is not necessary that the Agreements be submitted to, filed or recorded with any court or other authority in the Republic to ensure such legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility into evidence (except for their translation into Spanish for their submission to court in Chile).

(k)    Republics Obligations. When duly issued and authenticated and paid for by the Underwriters, the Notes will constitute direct, general, unconditional and unsubordinated external indebtedness of the Republic for which the full faith and credit of the Republic will have been pledged; when issued, the Notes will rank without any preference among themselves and equally with all other unsubordinated external indebtedness of the Republic. It is understood that this provision shall not be construed so as to require the Republic to make payments under the Notes ratably with payments being made under any other external indebtedness.

 

7


(l)    Private, Commercial Action. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Indenture and the other documents referred to therein, and the issuance and sale of the Notes and the performance of the terms thereof by the Republic, constitute private and commercial acts rather than public or governmental acts. Under the laws of the Republic, except as described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, neither the Republic nor any of its property has any immunity (i) from jurisdiction of any court, (ii) from set-off or any legal process in the courts of the Republic other than attachment prior to judgment and attachment in aid of execution or (iii) from set-off or any legal process in any court other than a court of the Republic (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution or otherwise); provided, however, that the Republic is not permitted under the laws of the Republic to waive its immunity with respect to any attachment (prior to judgment or in aid of execution or otherwise) with respect to properties of the Republic located in Chile; and provided further, that with respect to the movable and immovable property of the Republic which is destined for diplomatic and/or consular missions or to the residence of the head of such missions or for military purposes, including such property which is property of a military character or under the control of a military authority or defense agency, or the rights or property of the Chilean Central Bank abroad, the waiver of immunity by the Republic is not permitted under the laws of the Republic. The waiver of immunity by the Republic contained in Section 19 hereof, Section 9.7(f) of the Indenture and Paragraph 15 of the Terms and Conditions of the Notes thereof and the indemnification and contribution provisions contained in Section 10 hereof do not conflict with Chilean law or public policy.

(m)    IMF. The Republic is a member of, and is eligible to use the general resources of, the International Monetary Fund (the “IMF”).

(n)    Enforcement of Agreements. Each of this Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes is in proper form under the laws of the Republic for the enforcement of a final and conclusive judgment in the courts of Chile, and in the legal action of such courts, such courts (i) would recognize and give effect to the respective provisions of this Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes that such documents be governed by the laws of the State of New York and (ii) would accordingly enforce the final and conclusive judgment made by a New York court. However, for its enforceability and admissibility in evidence in the Republic, each such document would need to be duly translated into Spanish, unless executed in Spanish by all the parties thereto. This procedure could be carried out in relation to any document issued or executed in a language other than Spanish at any time prior to such document being admitted as evidence in a proceeding held in Chilean courts.

(o)    Licenses, Consents and Residence. It is not necessary under the laws of the Republic that the Underwriters be licensed, qualified or entitled to carry on business in the Republic by reason of the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the Agreements and the Underwriters will not be deemed resident, domiciled, to be carrying on business or subject to taxation in the Republic solely by reason of the execution, delivery, performance outside the Republic or enforcement of the Agreements.

 

8


(p)    Ratings. There has been no public announcement by Fitch Ratings Limited (Fitch Ratings), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moodys”) or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Service (“Standard & Poors”) that the ratings accorded to the Republic’s debt securities in effect on the date hereof are under, or will be under, surveillance or review; and the Republic has not been informed by either Fitch Ratings, Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s that any of them intends or is contemplating any downgrading in any rating accorded to the Republic’s debt securities.

(q)    Sanctions. The Republic will not knowingly use the proceeds of the offering of the Notes, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any entity or other person, (i) to fund any activities of or business with any person that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of any sanctions administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the U.S. Department of Commerce, the U.S. Department of State, the United Nations Security Council, the European Union, Her Majesty’s Treasury, or other relevant sanctions authority (collectively, “Sanctions”), or is in any country or territory, that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of Sanctions (currently, inter alia, the region of Crimea, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria and Venezuela), or (ii) in any other manner that will result in a violation by any person (including any person participating in the offering of the Notes, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or otherwise) of Sanctions.

 

  6.

Covenants of the Republic

The Republic agrees with each of the Underwriters as follows:

(a)    Representations and Warranties. The Republic will notify the Underwriters promptly if at any time prior to payment of the Purchase Price to the Republic and fulfillment of all of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 8 anything occurs which renders or may render untrue or incorrect in any material respect any of the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 and will forthwith take such steps as the Underwriters may reasonably require to remedy and/or publicize the fact.

(b)    Filing and Delivery of Final Prospectus. Promptly after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Republic will file the Prospectus Supplement with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b), setting forth, among other things, the necessary information with respect to the final terms of the offering of the Notes. The Republic will promptly deliver to each of the Underwriters and to their counsel copies of the Registration Statement in the form in which it became effective and all amendments thereto hereafter made (including any Form 18-K and amendment thereto) which relate to the Notes (in each case including all exhibits filed therewith and all documents incorporated by reference therein not previously furnished to the Underwriters), including signed copies of each consent and certificate included therein or filed as an exhibit thereto, and will deliver to each of the Underwriters as many unsigned copies of the foregoing (excluding the exhibits) as the Underwriters may reasonably request. The Republic will also send to the Underwriters as soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement and thereafter from time to time as many copies of the Final Prospectus as any of the Underwriters or dealers may reasonably request for the purposes required by the Securities Act.

 

9


(c)    Filing of Final Term Sheet. The Republic agrees to prepare the final term sheet as set forth in Schedule IV hereto (the “Final Term Sheet”), containing solely a description of the Notes in the form approved by the Underwriters, and to file such Final Term Sheet pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act within the time required by such rule. Any such Final Term Sheet is an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus for purposes of this Agreement.

(d)    Delivery of Amendments and Supplements. During such period (not exceeding 120 days) after the commencement of the offering of the Notes as the Underwriters or any dealer may be required by law to deliver a prospectus (including in circumstances where such requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172 under the Securities Act), if any event relating to or affecting the Republic, or of which the Republic, shall be advised in writing by the Underwriters, shall occur, should be set forth in a supplement to or an amendment of the Final Prospectus in order to make the statements set forth in the Final Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or if it is necessary to amend the Final Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act, the Republic will forthwith at its expense prepare and furnish to the Underwriters and the dealers named by any of the Underwriters a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or supplements or an amendment or amendments of the Final Prospectus which will supplement or amend the Final Prospectus so that as supplemented or amended it will comply with the Securities Act and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. In case any Underwriter or dealer is required to deliver a prospectus after the expiration of 120 days after the commencement of the offering of the Notes, the Republic, upon the request of such Underwriter or dealer, will furnish to such Underwriter or dealer, a reasonable quantity of a supplemented or amended Final Prospectus, or supplements to or amendments of the Final Prospectus, complying with Section 10(a) of the Securities Act.

(e)    The Republic will use its best efforts promptly to do and perform all things to be done and performed by it hereunder prior to the Closing Date and to satisfy all conditions precedent to the delivery by it of the Notes.

(f)    The Republic will advise the Underwriters promptly of the filing of the Prospectus Supplement pursuant to Rule 424(b) or otherwise and of any amendment or supplement to the Final Prospectus, the Registration Statement or the Disclosure Package or of official notice of institution of proceeding for, or the entry of, a stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and, if such a stop order should be entered, use its best efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal thereof.

(g)    The Republic will take such actions as the Underwriters may reasonably request to qualify the Notes for offer and sale under the Blue Sky or legal investment laws of such jurisdictions in the United States and under the legal investment laws of such jurisdictions outside the United States as the Underwriters may reasonably designate, and will file and make in each year such statements or reports as are or may be reasonably required by the laws of such jurisdictions inside or outside the United States and to maintain such qualifications for a period of at least one year from the Effective Time of the Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Republic shall not be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or dealer in securities under the laws of any jurisdiction other than as set forth in this Agreement and the Indenture or to file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction.

 

10


(h)    Additional Amounts.

(i)     All payments by the Republic in respect of the Notes will be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Republic, or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency therein or thereof having the power to tax (for purposes of this paragraph, a “Relevant Tax”), unless the withholding or deduction of any such Relevant Tax is required by law. In that event, the Republic will pay such additional amounts, including but not limited to, the payment of the 4% withholding tax imposed on payments of interest to bondholders that are not residents of the Republic (“Additional Amounts”), as may be necessary to ensure that the amounts received by the bondholders after such withholding or deduction will equal the respective amounts of principal and interest that would have been receivable in respect of the Notes in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no Additional Amounts will be payable in respect of any Relevant Tax:

(A)    imposed by reason of a bondholder or beneficial owner of a Note having some present or former connection with the Republic other than merely being a bondholder or beneficial owner of the Note or receiving payments of any nature on the Note or enforcing its rights in respect of the Note;

(B)    imposed by reason of the failure of a bondholder or beneficial owner of a Note, or any other person through which the bondholder or beneficial owner holds a Note, to comply with any certification, identification or other reporting requirement concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Republic of such bondholder or beneficial owner or other person, if compliance with the requirement is a precondition to exemption from all or any portion of such withholding or deduction, provided that (x) the Republic or the Republic’s agent has provided the trustee with at least 60 days’ prior written notice of an opportunity to satisfy such a requirement, and (y) in no event shall such holder or beneficial owner or other person’s obligation to satisfy such a requirement require such holder or beneficial owner or other person to provide any materially more onerous information, documents or other evidence than would be required to be provided had such holder or beneficial owner or other person been required to file Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8EXP and/or W-8IMY; or

 

11


(C)    is imposed by reason of a bondholder or beneficial owner of a Note, or any other person through which the bondholder or beneficial owner holds a Note, having presented the Note for payment (where such presentation is required) more than 30 days after the relevant date, except to the extent that the bondholder or beneficial owner or such other person would have been entitled to Additional Amounts on presenting the Note for payment on any date during such 30-day period.

As used in this paragraph (h), “relevant date” in respect to any Notes, means the date on which payment in respect hereof first becomes due or, if the full amount of the money payable has not been received by the Trustee on or prior to such due date, the date on which notice is duly given under the Indenture to the holders that such monies have been so received and are available for payment. Any reference to “principal” and/or “interest” under the Indenture also refers to any additional amounts which may be payable under the Indenture.

The Republic will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes or any excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise in the Republic or any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority thereof or therein in respect of the creation, issue, execution, initial delivery or registration of the Notes or any other document or instrument referred to therein. The Republic will also indemnify the bondholders from and against any stamp, court or documentary taxes or any excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies resulting from, or required to be paid by any of them in any jurisdiction in connection with, the enforcement of the obligations of the Republic under the Notes or any other document or instrument referred to therein following the occurrence of any Event of Default.

(ii)    From the date hereof through the period ending 30 days after the Closing Date, the Republic will ensure that no other dollar-denominated debt securities of the Republic, other than debt securities with a maturity of one year or less, are placed or sold in the international capital markets, directly or indirectly on its behalf, in any manner which might, in the reasonable opinion of the Underwriters, have a detrimental effect on the successful offering and distribution of the Notes, unless the Underwriters otherwise agree in writing.

 

  7.

Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses

(a)    The Republic agrees that unless it obtains the prior consent of the Underwriters, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, it has not made and will not make any offers relating to the Notes that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) required to be filed by the Republic with the Commission or retained by the Republic under Rule 433 under the Securities Act; provided that the prior consent of the Underwriters shall be deemed to have been given in respect of the Issuer Free Writing Prospectus included in Schedule IV hereto.

(b)    In connection with this offering, each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, represents and covenants with the Republic that, unless such Underwriter has obtained or will obtain, as the case may be, the prior consent of the Republic, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, such Underwriter has not and will not use any Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses or any free writing prospectus required to be filed by the Republic with the

 

12


Commission or retained by the Republic under Rule 433 under the Securities Act; provided, that the prior consent of the Republic shall be deemed to have been given in respect of the Issuer Free Writing Prospectus included in Schedule IV hereto.

  10.

Indemnification and Contribution

(a)    Issuers Indemnity. The Republic agrees that it will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each of its affiliates, and individually each of its respective directors, officers, agents, employees and controlling persons, from and against any and all losses, liabilities, costs, claims, actions, demands, damages, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) which any of them may incur, as incurred, or which may be made against any of them, insofar as such losses, liabilities, costs, claims, actions, demands, damages or expenses (i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment

 

15


thereof or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or (ii) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Disclosure Package, in the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus identified in Schedule III, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case including, but not limited to, the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission and all expenses whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Underwriters), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, and the Republic agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any documented legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Republic will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Republic by or on behalf of any of the Underwriters specifically for inclusion therein, it being understood and agreed that the only information furnished by the Underwriters consists of the second and third sentences of the third paragraph, and the fifth and sixth paragraphs set forth under the caption “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)” in the Prospectus Supplement. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Republic may otherwise have.

(b)    Underwriters Indemnity. Each of the Underwriters severally, and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Republic and each of its officials who signs the Registration Statement, against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses (as incurred, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) to which any of them may become subject, insofar as such losses, liabilities, costs, claims, actions, demands, damages or expenses are caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, in the Disclosure Package, in the Final Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon or in conformity with written information furnished to the Republic by or on behalf of any of the Underwriters specifically for inclusion therein, it being understood and agreed that the only information furnished by the Underwriters consists of the second and third sentences of the third paragraph, and the fifth and sixth paragraphs set forth under the caption “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)” in the Prospectus Supplement. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Underwriters may otherwise have.

 

16


(c)    Notification. (i) If any action, proceeding (including any governmental investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against an indemnified party in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against the indemnifying party under this Section 10, the indemnified party shall promptly notify the indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability which it may have under this Section 10; and, provided, further, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 10. The indemnifying party, upon request of such indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party to represent such indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding. In such proceeding, the indemnified party shall have the right to retain counsel of its own choice to represent it in connection with such action, claim or demand, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (x) the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the contrary, (y) the indemnifying party has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party or (z) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them, in each of which cases the fees and expenses of counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying parties or party. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. With respect to any indemnification claim under Section 10(a), any such firm shall be designated in writing by the Underwriters.

(ii)    The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with such consent or if there shall be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. The indemnifying party shall not, without the written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d)    Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 10 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under Section 10(a) or 10(b), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Republic on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Notes or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not

 

17


permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Republic on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect to the statements or omissions that resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Republic on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect to such offering of the Notes shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Notes purchased under this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by or on behalf of the Republic, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discounts and commissions set forth in Section 9(c) received by the Underwriters with respect to the Notes purchased under this Agreement, on the other, bear to the total gross proceeds from the sale of the Notes under this Agreement, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Final Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to the Republic or information supplied by the Republic on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Republic and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 10(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 10(d) shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section 10(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend any such action or claim or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 10(d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total management and underwriting commission and selling concession set forth in Section 9(c) received by such Underwriter with respect to the Notes purchased by it under this Agreement exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 10(d), each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each official of the Republic who signs the Registration Statement shall have the same rights to contribution as the Republic. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 10(d) are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations and not joint.

 

  11.

Default of Underwriters

If any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Notes agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for

 

18


(in the respective proportions which the principal amount of Notes set forth opposite their names in Schedule II hereto bears to the aggregate principal amount of Notes set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Notes which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate principal amount of Notes which the defaulting Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes set forth in Schedule II hereto, the remaining Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the Notes, and if such non-defaulting Underwriters do not purchase all the Notes, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Republic. In the event of any such default that does not result in a termination of this Agreement, either the Underwriters or the Republic shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement or Final Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements. As used herein, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter pursuant to this Section 11.

 

  12.

Underwriters Not Fiduciaries

(a)    The Republic acknowledges and agrees that:

(i)    the purchase and sale of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Republic, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other;

(ii)    in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction the Underwriters are acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Republic;

(iii)    the Underwriters have not assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Republic with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether the Underwriters have advised or are currently advising the Republic on other matters) or any other obligation to the Republic except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; and

(iv)    the Republic has consulted its own advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate.

(b)    To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Republic agrees that it will not claim that the Underwriters have rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Republic, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

 

  13.

Expenses

The Underwriters shall pay (x) the costs and expenses incurred in connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes, including but not limited to: (a) the costs of printing the Registration Statement, the Prospectus Supplement and the Disclosure Package, (b) the costs of

 

19


distributing the Registration Statement, the Prospectus Supplement and the Disclosure Package, (c) the initial, up-front fees and expenses of the Trustee, and any paying agent (including related fees and expenses of any counsel for such parties), (d) all expenses and fees incurred in connection with the clearance of the Notes for book-entry transfer through DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream Luxembourg, (e) the fees and expenses incurred in listing the Notes on the ISM and admitting the Notes for trading thereon, (f) the fee payable to the Commission in connection with the initial filing of the Registration Statement with the Commission, (g) the fees and expenses of Chilean and United States counsel to the Republic in connection with the issuance of the Notes, (h) any fees and expenses of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. or the fees and expenses of qualifying the Notes under any applicable securities laws of the several jurisdictions as provided for in Section 6(g) and preparing, printing and distributing a Blue Sky memorandum (including related fees and expenses of counsel) and (i) all roadshow expenses; and (y) the following: (a) the fees and expenses of Chilean and United States counsel to the Underwriters in connection with the issuance of the Notes and (b) any out of pocket expenses of the Underwriters not included in clauses (x)(a) through (i) above. The Republic agrees to pay, or reimburse the Underwriters for, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, all those set forth in clauses (x)(a) through (i) above and (y)(a), but excluding all those set forth in clause (y)(b) above) incurred in connection with the issuance and sale of the Notes to the extent the combined sum of all such expenses and the equivalent expenses set forth under the underwriting agreement dated on or about the date hereof related to the Euro denominated 2025 Notes exceeds US$200,000; provided, however, that if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 14 hereof, the Republic agrees to pay all reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation for the issuance and sale of the Notes and to pay, or reimburse the Underwriters for, all of their reasonable and documented costs and expenses related to the transaction, including without limitation, the fees and expenses of Chilean and United States counsel. Notwithstanding the above, the Republic agrees to pay its own out of pocket expenses.

 

  14.

Termination

(a)    The Underwriters Ability to Terminate. Despite anything contained in this Agreement, the Underwriters, acting together, may, by notice to the Republic given at any time prior to payment of the Purchase Price for the Notes to the Republic (but, in the case of Section 14(a)(iii), only after consultation with the Republic if the Underwriters, acting together, believe such consultation to be practicable), terminate this Agreement in any of the following circumstances:

(i)    if there shall have come to the notice of the Underwriters any breach of, or any event rendering untrue or incorrect in any material respect, any of the representations and warranties contained in Section 5 or any failure to perform in any material respect any of the Republic’s undertakings or agreements in this Agreement; or

(ii)    if any condition specified in Section 8 has not been satisfied or waived by the Underwriters and cannot be satisfied on or before the Closing Date; or

 

20


(iii)    if there shall have been any change in Chilean, United States, or international financial, political or economic conditions as would, in the judgment of the Underwriters, make it impracticable to proceed with the public offering and distribution of the Notes on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Disclosure Package and in the Final Prospectus; or

(iv)    if a banking moratorium shall have been declared by the United States federal or New York state authorities or authorities of the Republic; or

(v)    if trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE MKT LLC, the Santiago Stock Exchange or the over-the-counter market shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on any of such exchanges or such market by the Commission or by any other regulatory body or governmental authority having jurisdiction; or

(vi)    if there shall have been any outbreak of or escalation in hostilities involving the Republic or the United States, the effect of which on the financial markets of the Republic or the United States is such as to make it, in the reasonable judgment of the Underwriters, impracticable to market the Notes.

(b)    Consequences of Termination. Upon such notice being given, this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further effect and no party hereto shall be under any liability to any other in respect of this Agreement, except for the liability of the parties in relation to expenses as provided in Section 13, any liability arising before or in relation to such termination and the respective obligations of the parties pursuant to Section 15 which would have continued had the arrangements for the payment and issue of the Notes been completed.

 

  15.

Survival of Representations and Obligations

The indemnity agreement set forth in Section 10 and the representations, warranties and agreements set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect despite completion of the arrangements for the sale and issuance of the Notes or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters or the Republic.

 

  16.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

(a)    Governing Law. This Agreement is governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

(b)    Jurisdiction. The Republic hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any New York state or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, and any appellate court, in any action or proceeding commenced by any bondholder, the Trustee or any Underwriter arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Notes, the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus, and the Republic hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York state or federal court. The Republic hereby irrevocably agrees that a final judgment in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court shall be conclusive and binding upon the Republic and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, may be enforced in the competent courts of

 

22


the Republic, subject to the fulfillment of the requirements for the enforcement of foreign judgments of Chilean law. The Republic hereby irrevocably appoints the person acting as or discharging the function of the Consul General of Chile in the city of New York (the “Process Agent”), with an office on the date hereof at 600 Third Avenue #2808, New York, New York 10016, as its agent to receive on behalf of itself and its property service of copies of the summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any such action or proceeding. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to the Republic, as the case may be, in care of the Process Agent at the address specified above for the Process Agent and the Republic hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Process Agent to accept such service on its behalf. As an alternative method of service, the Republic also irrevocably consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding in such New York state or federal court sitting in New York City by the mailing of copies of such process to itself at its address specified in Section 16 hereof. The prior two sentences notwithstanding, service of process by means of mail may not serve as valid notice under Chilean law for a complaint or judicial action commenced against the Republic.

(c)    Nothing in this Section 17 shall affect the right of any Underwriter to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of any Underwriter to bring any action or proceeding against the Republic or their respective property in the courts of other jurisdictions.

 

  18.

Waiver of Jury Trial

The Republic and each of the Underwriters hereby irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

  19.

Waiver of Sovereign Immunity

(a)    To the extent that the Republic has or hereafter may acquire or have attributed to it any immunity under any law (other than the laws of the Republic) from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through sovereign immunity, service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, the Republic hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, except for actions arising out of or based on the U.S. federal securities laws or any state securities laws; provided, however, that the above exception shall not in any way limit the ability of the Underwriters to exercise the rights to indemnification and contribution from the Republic set forth in Section 10 hereof. To the extent that the Republic has or hereafter may have any immunity under the laws of the Republic (i) from jurisdiction of any court, (ii) from any legal process in the courts of the Republic, or (iii) from any legal process in any court other than a court of the Republic, whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution or otherwise, with respect to itself or its property, the Republic hereby irrevocably waives such immunity to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the Republic, in respect of its obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus except for actions arising out of or based on the U.S. federal securities laws or any state securities laws;

 

23


provided, however, that the above exception shall not in any way limit the ability of the Underwriters to exercise the rights to indemnification and contribution from the Republic set forth in Section 10 hereof. In addition, the Republic irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection to any suit, action or proceeding, that may be brought in connection with this Agreement, the Notes, the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Final Prospectus, including such actions, suits or proceedings relating to securities laws of the United States or any state thereof, in such courts whether on the grounds of venue, residence or domicile or on the grounds that any such action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. However, the Republic will not waive immunity from attachment prior to judgment and attachment in aid of execution under Chilean law with respect to property of the Republic located in Chile and with respect to its movable and immovable property which is destined for diplomatic and consular missions and for the residence of the head of such missions or to military purposes, including such property which is property of a military character or under the control of a military authority or defense agency or property of the Chilean Central Bank abroad, since such waiver is not permitted under the laws of Chile. The Republic reserves the right to plead sovereign immunity under the U.S. Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 with respect to any action brought against it under U.S. federal securities laws or any state securities laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Republic agrees that the waivers set forth in this subsection (a) shall have the fullest extent permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States and are intended to be irrevocable for purposes of such Act.

(b)    The Republic hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any requirement or other provision of law, rule, regulation or practice which requires or otherwise establishes as a condition to the institution, prosecution or completion of any action or proceeding (including appeals) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Notes, the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus, the posting of any bond or the furnishing, directly or indirectly, of any other security.

 

  20.

Judgment and Payment Currency

The obligation of the Republic to the Underwriters under this Agreement will be discharged only to the extent that the Underwriters may purchase U.S. dollars with the payment or judgment currency, as the case may be. If the Underwriters cannot purchase U.S. dollars in the amount originally to be paid, the Republic agrees to pay the difference. The Underwriters, however, agree that, if the amount of the U.S. dollars purchased exceeds the amount originally to be paid to the Underwriters, the Underwriters will reimburse the excess to the Republic. The Underwriters, however, will not be obligated to make this reimbursement if the Republic is currently in default of its obligations under the Notes.

 

  21.

Severability

In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 

24


  22.

Counterparts

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by email or facsimile shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof.

 

  23.

Successors

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and the controlling persons referred to in Section 10 hereof and their respective administrators and successors, and no other person shall have any right or obligation hereunder. No purchaser of any of the Notes from any Underwriter shall be deemed a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

 

  24.

Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes

(a)    In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b)    In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(c)    For purposes of this Section 24, the following terms shall have the respective meanings set out below:

i.    “BHC Act Affiliate” has the meaning assigned to the term “affiliate” in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. § 1841(k).

ii.    “Covered Entity” means any of the following: (i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b); (ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or (iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

iii.    “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

iv.     “U.S. Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

 

25


If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, please sign and return to the Republic a counterpart hereof, whereupon this instrument will become a binding agreement among the Republic and the Underwriters.

Underwriting Agreement


SCHEDULE I

Selling Restrictions

 

  1.

General

By its purchase and acceptance of Notes issued under this Agreement to which these selling restrictions are scheduled, each of the Underwriters represents, warrants and severally agrees that it will observe all applicable laws and regulations in any jurisdiction in which it may offer, sell or deliver Notes; and it will not directly or indirectly offer, sell, resell, reoffer or deliver Notes or distribute any prospectus, circular, advertisement or other offering material in any country or jurisdiction except under circumstances that will result in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, and all actions or measures so taken shall be at the sole expense of such Underwriter. Each of the Underwriters also acknowledges and severally agrees that it is not authorized to give any information on or to make any representation not contained in the Final Prospectus or the Disclosure Package in connection with the offer and sale of Notes.

No action has been or will be taken by the Underwriters or the Republic that would permit a public offering of the Notes or possession or distribution of the Final Prospectus or the Disclosure Package or any other offering or publicity material relating to the Notes, in any country or jurisdiction in which action for that purpose is required (other than the United States).

Except for registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and compliance with the rules and regulations thereunder and the qualification of the Notes for offer and sale under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Underwriters and the Republic may agree to pursuant to Section 6(f), the Republic shall not have any responsibility for obtaining, and each of the Underwriters agrees with the Republic that it and its respective affiliates will obtain any consent, approval or authorization required by them for the purchase, offer, sale or delivery by them of any of the Notes under the laws and regulations in force in any jurisdiction to which they are subject to or in or from which they make such purchase, offer, sale or delivery of any of the Notes.

 

  2.

The United States of America

Each of the Underwriters on behalf of itself and its affiliates that participate in the distribution of the Notes, represents and agrees that it and each such affiliate has complied with all applicable provisions of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and applicable Blue Sky or state securities laws.

 

  3.

European Economic Area and United Kingdom

The Prospectus Supplement has been prepared on the basis that any offer of Securities in any Member State of the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and in the United Kingdom (“UK”) (each a “Relevant State”) will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Regulation from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of Securities. Accordingly, any person making or intending to make an offer in a Relevant State of Securities which are the subject of the offers contemplated in the Prospectus Supplement may only do so to legal entities which are qualified investors as defined in the Prospectus Regulation, provided that no such offer of Securities shall require the Republic or any of the Underwriters to publish a

 

I-1


prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Regulation or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 23 of the Prospectus Regulation, in each case in relation to such offer. Neither the Republic nor the Underwriters have authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of Securities to any legal entity which is not a “qualified investor” as defined in the Prospectus Regulation. Neither the Republic nor the Underwriters have authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of Securities through any financial intermediary, other than offers made by the Underwriters, which constitute the final placement of the Securities contemplated in the Prospectus Supplement.

Each Underwriter has represented and agreed that it has not offered, sold or otherwise made available and will not offer, sell or otherwise make available any Securities to any retail investor in any Relevant State. For the purposes of this provision:

(a)    the expression “retail investor” means a person who is one (or more) of the following:

(i)    a retail client as defined in point (11) of MiFID II;

(ii)    a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended, the “IDD”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II;

(iii)    not a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Regulation; and

(b)    the expression “offer” includes the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Securities to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for the Securities.

Each person in a Relevant State who receives any communication in respect of, or who acquires any Securities under, the offers to the public contemplated in the Prospectus Supplement, or to whom the Securities are otherwise made available, will be deemed to have represented, warranted, acknowledged and agreed to and with each Underwriter and the Republic that it and any person on whose behalf it acquires Securities is: (1) a “qualified investor” within the meaning of Article 2(e) of the Prospectus Regulation; and (2) not a “retail investor” (as defined above).

In this section, the expression “Prospectus Regulation” means Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (as amended or superseded). References to Regulations or Directives include, in relation to the UK, those Regulations or Directives as they form part of UK domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 or have been implemented in UK domestic law, as appropriate.

The above selling restriction is in addition to any other selling restrictions set out below.

 

  4.

United Kingdom

(b)    it has complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the FSMA and the Financial Services Act 2012 with respect to anything done by it in relation to the Securities in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom.

The Prospectus Supplement has not been approved by an authorized person for the purposes of section 21 of the FSMA. The Prospectus Supplement is for distribution only to persons who: (i) are outside the United Kingdom; (ii) have professional experience in matters relating to investments falling within Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 (as amended, the “Financial Promotion Order”); (iii) are persons falling within Articles 49(2)(a) to (d) (“high net worth companies, unincorporated associations, etc.”) of the Financial Promotion Order; or (iv) are persons to whom an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of Section 21 of the FSMA) in connection with the issue or sale of any securities may otherwise lawfully be communicated or caused to be communicated (all such persons together being referred to as “relevant persons”). The Prospectus Supplement is directed only at relevant persons and must not be acted on or relied on by persons who are not relevant persons. Any investment or investment activity to which the Prospectus Supplement relates is available only to relevant persons and will be engaged in only with relevant persons.

 

  5.

Switzerland

The Prospectus Supplement does not constitute an issue prospectus pursuant to Article 652a or Article 1156 of the Swiss Code of Obligations and the notes will not be listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange. Therefore, the Prospectus Supplement may not comply with the disclosure standards of the listing rules (including any additional listing rules or prospectus schemes) of the SIX Swiss Exchange. Accordingly, the notes may not be offered to the public in or from Switzerland, but only to a selected and limited circle of investors who do not subscribe to the notes with a view to distribution. Any such investors will be individually approached by the underwriters from time to time.

I-3


do not constitute an invitation to the public within the meaning of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Cap. 571 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (“Securities and Futures Ordinance”), or (ii) to “professional investors” as defined in the Securities and Futures Ordinance and any rules made thereunder, or (iii) in other circumstances which do not result in the document being a “prospectus” as defined in the Companies (Winding Up and Miscellaneous Provisions) Ordinance, and no advertisement, invitation or document relating to the notes may be issued or may be in the possession of any person for the purpose of issue (in each case whether in Hong Kong or elsewhere), which is directed at, or the contents of which are likely to be accessed or read by, the public in Hong Kong (except if permitted to do so under the securities laws of Hong Kong) other than with respect to notes which are or are intended to be disposed of only to persons outside Hong Kong or only to “professional investors” in Hong Kong as defined in the Securities and Futures Ordinance and any rules made thereunder.

 

  8.

Taiwan

Each Underwriter has represented and warranted that the offer of the Notes has not been and will not be registered with the Financial Supervisory Commission of Taiwan pursuant to relevant securities laws and regulations and the Notes may not be sold, issued or offered within Taiwan through a public offering or in a circumstance which constitutes an offer within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Act of Taiwan requiring registration or approval of the Financial Supervisory Commission of Taiwan. Each Underwriter has represented and warranted that no person or entity in Taiwan has been authorized to offer, sell, give advice regarding or otherwise intermediate the offering and sale of the Notes in Taiwan.

 

  9.

Japan

The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law of Japan (the “Financial Instruments and Exchange Law”) and each underwriter has agreed that it will not offer or sell any Notes, directly or indirectly, in Japan or to, or for the benefit of, any resident of Japan (which term as used herein means any person resident in Japan, including any corporation or other entity organized under the laws of Japan), or to others for reoffering or resale, directly or indirectly, in Japan or to a resident of Japan, except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of, and otherwise in compliance with, the Financial Instruments and Exchange Law and any other applicable laws, regulations and ministerial guidelines of Japan.

Delivery of the notes is expected on or about May 12, 2020 which will be the fifth business day following the date of pricing of the notes. Under Rule 15c6–1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in two business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade notes prior to the Closing Date may be required, by virtue of the fact that the notes initially will settle in T+5, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement. Purchasers of the notes who wish to trade notes prior to the Closing Date should consult their own advisor.

The issuer has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus and a preliminary prospectus supplement) with the SEC for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus and the preliminary prospectus supplement in that registration statement and other documents the issuer has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the issuer and this offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC website at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, the issuer, any underwriter or any dealer participating in the offering will arrange to send you the prospectus or any prospectus supplement for this offering if you request it by calling Citigroup Global Markets Inc. at 1-800-831-9146, Itau BBA USA Securities, Inc. at 1-888-770-4828 and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. at 1-800-472-6842.

This term sheet has been prepared on the basis that any offer of the notes in any Member State of the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or in the United Kingdom (each a “Relevant State”) will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Regulation from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of notes. The expression “Prospectus Regulation” means Regulation (EU) 2017/1129.

The notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in a Relevant State. For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, “MiFID II”); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (as amended, “IDD”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in a Relevant State has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in a Relevant State may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.

 

V-3


Each person in a Relevant State who receives any communication in respect of, or who acquires any notes under, the offers to the public contemplated in the Prospectus Supplement, or to whom the notes are otherwise made available, will be deemed to have represented, warranted, acknowledged and agreed to and with each underwriter and the Republic that it and any person on whose behalf it acquires notes is not a “retail investor” (as defined above).

This document is for distribution only to persons who (i) have professional experience in matters relating to investments falling within Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005 (as amended, the “Financial Promotion Order”), (ii) are persons falling within Article 49(2)(a) to (d) (“high net worth companies, unincorporated associations etc.”) of the Financial Promotion Order, (iii) are outside the United Kingdom, or (iv) are persons to whom an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (within the meaning of section 21 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000) in connection with the issue or sale of any securities may otherwise lawfully be communicated or caused to be communicated (all such persons together being referred to as “relevant persons”). This document is directed only at relevant persons and must not be acted on or relied on by persons who are not relevant persons. Any investment or investment activity to which this document relates is available only to relevant persons and will be engaged in only with relevant persons.

ANY DISCLAIMERS OR OTHER NOTICES THAT MAY APPEAR AFTER THIS MESSAGE ARE NOT APPLICABLE TO THIS COMMUNICATION AND SHOULD BE DISREGARDED. SUCH DISCLAIMERS OR OTHER NOTICES WERE AUTOMATICALLY GENERATED AS A RESULT OF THIS COMMUNICATION BEING SENT VIA BLOOMBERG OR ANOTHER EMAIL SYSTEM.

Re.: Republic of Chile / Notes

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion is delivered to you pursuant to Section 8(e)(i)(A) of the Underwriting Agreement dated [●], 2020 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) among the Republic of Chile (the “Republic”) and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Itau BBA USA Securities, Inc. and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. (the “Underwriters”) relating to the issuance and sale by the Republic of US$[●] aggregate principal amount of its [●]% Notes due 20[●] (the “Notes”), which Notes are to be issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”) between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended by the first supplemental indenture, dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The Notes, the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture (collectively, the “Agreements”) are more fully described in the Registration Statement (as defined below) and the Final Prospectus (as defined below) prepared by the Republic in connection with the issuance of the Notes. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Underwriting Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

 

A-1-1


We have acted as special Chilean counsel to the Republic in connection with the Agreements and issuance of the Notes. In connection with this opinion we have examined:

 

  1.

an executed copy of each Agreement and the form of the Notes;

 

  2.

the registration statement on Schedule B (No. 333-235463) initially filed by the Republic under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 12, 2019 (such registration statement, including the documents and information deemed to be a part thereof at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430B(f) and Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act, respectively, and the documents incorporated by reference therein, respectively, hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Registration Statement”).

 

  3.

the base prospectus, dated [●], 2020, included as part of the Registration Statement (the base prospectus being hereinafter referred to as the “Base Prospectus”);

 

  4.

the preliminary prospectus supplement, dated [●], 2020 relating to the Notes (the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”);

 

  5.

the final prospectus supplement, dated [●], 2020 relating to the Notes (the “Final Prospectus Supplement”) (the Base Prospectus, as supplemented by the Final Prospectus Supplement, in the form it was filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, being hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Final Prospectus”);

 

  6.

the Authorization delivered by the Republic as contemplated by the Indenture;

 

  7.

the Political Constitution of the Republic (Constitución Política de la República de Chile) dated 1980, as amended (the “Constitution”);

 

  8.

Decree Law No. 1,263 (Decreto Ley N°1.263) of November 21, 1975, as amended, providing for the rules of financial administration and governance of the Republic (the “Government Financial Administration Act”);

 

  9.

Decree Law No. 2,349 (Decreto Ley N°2.349) of October 13, 1978, as amended, on sovereign immunity of the Chilean State (the “Sovereign Immunity Act”);

 

  10.

Articles 3 of Law No. [●] (Ley N° []), published in the Official Gazette on [●], 2020 (the “[2020 Budget Law]”);

 

  11.

Supreme Decree No. [●] (Decreto Supremo N° [●]) dated [●], 2020 of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic and published in the Official Gazette on [●], 2020 (the “Supreme Decree”);

 

  12.

Oficio Ordinario No. [●] dated [●], 2020 of the Minister of Finance of the Republic; and

 

A-1-2


  13.

such other documents, agreements and instruments and such treaties, laws, rules, decrees and the like as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter expressed.

We have assumed for purposes of this opinion that: (i) the Agreements and all other documents to be executed and delivered thereunder have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Underwriters and the Trustee, as the case may be, and that each such party has adequate power, authority and legal right to enter into each Agreement to which it is a party; (ii) the authenticity of all documents examined by us (and the completeness of and conformity to the originals of any copies thereof submitted to us) and the genuineness of all signatures; (iii) the truthfulness and accuracy of all oral representations made to us; (iv) the Underwriting Agreement has not been terminated pursuant to Section 14 thereof, (v) the execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements and the other documents and instruments provided for by the Agreements, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will not contravene or breach, or result in a default under, or require any consent of any person under, any agreement or other document or instrument to which any of the parties to any thereof (other than the Republic) is a party or by which it is bound; and (vi) any documents referred to in our opinion and executed by the Republic, which are stated to be governed by and construed in accordance with New York law, based on the opinions contained herein, will have been duly authorized, executed and delivered pursuant to New York law.

Also, in rendering this opinion we have relied, without independent investigation, (i) to the extent this opinion involves any matter of United States Federal and New York law, upon the opinion of Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP, special U.S. counsel to the Republic, dated as of even date, rendered pursuant to Section 8(e)(i)(B) of the Underwriting Agreement, and (ii) as to matters of fact, to the extent we have deemed proper, on certificates of officers of the Republic and certificates or other written statements of Chilean officials having custody of relevant documents.

Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

(a)    The Republic has full power and authority to execute and deliver each of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes and all other documents and instruments to be executed and delivered by the Republic thereunder, to incur in the obligations to be incurred by it as provided therein and to perform and observe the provisions thereof on its part to be performed or observed and to issue and sell the Notes and to perform the terms thereof.

(b)    The issuance and sale of the Notes and the execution and delivery of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes by the Republic and all other documents and instruments to be executed and delivered by the Republic thereunder and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly and validly authorized by the Republic.

(c)    Each of the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Republic and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Republic enforceable against the Republic in accordance with the terms thereof.

 

A-1-3


(d)    The Notes, when duly (A) executed by (i) the representative of the Republic designated in accordance with the Supreme Decree and (ii) the Treasurer General of the Republic (Tesorero General de la República) (or his/her representative designated in accordance with the Supreme Decree), (B) authenticated (“refrendados”) by the Comptroller General of the Republic (Contralor General de la República) (or his/her representative designated in accordance with the Supreme Decree) and, based on our understanding that the Indenture (which is governed by New York law) so requires, authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the Indenture, and (C) delivered and paid for in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement, will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Republic enforceable against the Republic in accordance with the terms thereof and entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

(e)    No consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any court, government or governmental agency or body or any third party is required to be taken, fulfilled, performed or obtained in the Republic (including, without limitation, the obtaining of any consent, approval or license or the making of any filing or registration) for the execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements by the Republic, or for the issue, sale, delivery and performance of the Notes as contemplated therein and in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by the Agreements and compliance by the Republic with the terms of the Agreements, as the case may be, or for the legality, enforceability, validity or admissibility into evidence of the Agreements (including the Notes) against the Republic, except for the authorizations contained in Article 3 of [the 2020 Budget Law] and in the Supreme Decree all of which have been duly obtained and are in full force and effect on the date hereof.

(f)    The execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements by the Republic, the issuance, sale, delivery and performance of the Notes as contemplated therein, the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by the Agreements and compliance by the Republic with the terms of the Agreements, as the case may be, do not (i) conflict with or result in a breach of the Constitution, the Government Financial Administration Act, the Sovereign Immunity Act, [the 2020 Budget Law], the Supreme Decree or any other constitutional provision, any provision of any treaty, convention, statute, law, regulation, decree, judgment, order of any government, governmental body or court, domestic or foreign court order or similar authority binding upon the Republic, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any fiscal agency agreement, trust deed, mortgage or other agreement to which the Republic or any National Governmental Agency is a party or by which any of them or any of their respective properties or assets are bound or (iii) result in the creation of any lien or encumbrance upon such properties or assets.

(g)    To the best of our knowledge after due inquiry, other than as set forth or contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus there are no pending, or threatened, actions or proceedings (foreign or domestic) against or affecting the Republic or any National Governmental Agency which, if determined adversely to the Republic or any such National Governmental Agency, would reasonably be expected individually or in the aggregate to have a materially adverse effect on the financial condition or revenues and expenditures of the Republic or would materially adversely affect the ability of the Republic to perform its obligations under the Agreements, or which are otherwise material in the context of the issuance of the Notes.

 

A-1-4


(h)    Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, there is no tax, duty, levy, impost, deduction, governmental charge or withholding imposed by the Republic or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein by virtue of the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Agreements (except for court clerk and consular fees in connection with enforcement proceedings) or to ensure the legality, enforceability, validity or admissibility into evidence of the Agreements or of any other document to be furnished thereunder, and neither is it necessary that the Agreements be submitted to, filed or recorded with any court or other authority in the Republic to ensure such legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility into evidence (except for the translation into Spanish of the Agreements and/or the Notes, which is required in order to bring any action thereon in the courts of Chile).

(i)    When duly issued, executed and authenticated as described in (d) above, the Notes will be the direct, unconditional and unsecured obligations of the Republic; the full faith and credit of the Republic will have been pledged for the due and punctual payment of the principal of, interest on, and any Additional Amounts or other amounts required to be paid with respect to, the Notes and the performance of the obligations therein contained; when issued, the Notes will rank pari passu in priority of payment, in right of security and in all other respects with all other External Indebtedness (as defined in the Terms and Conditions of the Notes) with respect to the Republic now or hereafter outstanding (except to the extent any such other External Indebtedness ranks above such obligations solely by reason of Liens (as defined in the Terms and Conditions of the Notes)).

(j)    The execution, delivery and performance of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the other documents referred to therein, and the issuance and sale of the Notes and the performance of the terms thereof by the Republic, constitute private and commercial acts rather than public or governmental acts. As described in the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus and the Disclosure Package, the Republic has validly waived with respect to itself and its property any immunity it may now or in the future enjoy, including immunity (i) from jurisdiction of any court, (ii) from set-off or any legal process in the courts of the Republic other than attachment prior to judgment and attachment in aid of execution or (iii) from set-off or any legal process in any court other than a court of the Republic (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution or otherwise); provided, however, that no attachment is possible with respect to properties of the Republic located in Chile; and, provided, further, that with respect to the movable and immovable property of the Republic used for diplomatic and consular missions, including the residence of the head of such missions, or for military purposes (including any property of military character or under the control of a military authority or defense agency) or the rights or property of the Chilean Central Bank, the waiver of immunity by the Republic is prohibited by the laws of the Republic. The waiver of immunity and waiver of objection to laying of venue and defense of inconvenient forum by the Republic contained in Section 19(a) of the Underwriting Agreement, Section 9.7(f) of the Indenture and paragraph 15(b) of the Terms and Conditions of the Notes, the appointment by the Republic of process agent in Section 17(b) of the Underwriting Agreement and Section 9.7(b) of the Indenture, the consent by the Republic to the jurisdiction of the courts specified in such sections and paragraph and the provisions in Section 17(a) of the Underwriting Agreement, Section 9.7(a) of the Indenture and paragraph 15(a) of the Terms and Conditions of the Notes that the laws of the State of New York shall govern the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes, are irrevocably binding on the Republic.

 

A-1-5


(k)    Each of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Registered Global Notes is (and, upon execution, delivery and authentication in accordance with paragraph (d) above, a Definitive Registered Note (as defined in the Notes) will be) in proper form under the laws of the Republic for the enforcement thereof in the courts of Chile, and in the legal action of such courts, such courts (i) would recognize and give effect to the respective provisions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes that such documents be governed by the laws of the State of New York and (ii) would accordingly apply New York law. However, for its enforceability and admissibility in evidence in the Republic, each such document would need to be duly translated into Spanish.

(l)    A final, valid and conclusive judgment for the payment of a fixed or readily calculable sum of money against the Republic rendered by any New York State or federal court sitting in the City of New York having jurisdiction under its laws, in an action arising out of or relating to the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture or the Notes, as the case may be, would be recognized and enforced against the Republic by the courts of Chile, without re-examination or review of the merits of the cause of action in respect of which the original judgment was given nor re-litigation of the matters adjudicated upon nor payment of any stamp, registration or similar tax or duty except for court and consular fees and other charges incurred in connection with enforcement proceedings and legalization of exequatur or rogatory documents; provided that the following conditions are met (the existence or non-existence of which would be determined by the Supreme Court of Chile):

1.    if there exists a treaty as to the enforcement of judgments between Chile and the United States, such treaty will be applied. As at the date hereof no such treaty currently exists between Chile and the United States;

2.    if there is no treaty, the judgment will be enforced if there is reciprocity as to the enforcement of judgments (i.e., a United States court would enforce a comparable judgment of a Chilean court under comparable circumstances);

3.    if it can be proved that there is no reciprocity the judgment cannot be enforced in Chile;

4.    if reciprocity cannot be proved, the judgment will be enforced if it has not been rendered by default within the meaning of Chilean law, that is if valid service of process was made upon the parties to the action unless the defendant was able to prove that due to other reasons it was prevented from assuming its defense. However, under Chilean law, service of process by means of mailing copies to the Republic will not be deemed effective to cause proper service of process and, consequently, any judgment rendered in a legal proceeding in which process was served by means of mailing copies may be then effectively contested by the Republic in Chile; and

 

A-1-6


5.    in any event, the judgment shall not be contrary to the public policy of the Republic of Chile and shall not affect in any way properties located in Chile, which are, as a matter of Chilean law, subject exclusively to the jurisdiction of Chilean courts. In this regard, other than as discussed in our qualification at the end of this opinion, we are not aware of any public policy that would affect the enforcement in Chile of a judgment in respect of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture or the Notes.

Upon compliance with the above, the courts in the Republic will enforce a final and conclusive judgment rendered by a New York State or Federal court sitting in The City of New York having jurisdiction, under its laws, over the Republic, in an action arising out of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture or the Notes, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedure contemplated by the Chilean Code of Civil Procedure for the enforcement of foreign judgments. To enforce such judgment in Chile rendered in relation to the Agreements or the Notes against the Republic, the judgment must be presented to the Supreme Court of Chile, in duly legalized (by the Chilean Consul in New York) form and translated into the Spanish language. Said Court will hear whatever presentation the Republic wishes to make, which hearing will be limited to aspects relating to such enforcement and not to substantive issues resolved in the judgment. The Supreme Court will also hear the Supreme Court Prosecutor (“Fiscal Judicial”) as to such limited aspects, and, with only this background, the Supreme Court will declare whether or not the judgment should be enforced. If the Supreme Court orders the Republic to perform any payment obligation, the facts must be made known to the President of the Republic so that he may issue a supreme decree ordering enforcement of such judgment within a 60-day period. The President of the Republic is prohibited by express mandate of the Constitution from exercising judicial functions as well as from reviewing the basis for and the contents of the court’s decision.

We express no opinion as to the enforceability in Chile of a foreign judgment against the Republic that is not a judgement for the payment of a fixed or readily calculable sum of money against the Republic or that has been obtained in any court other than the New York State or Federal courts sitting in New York City.

(m)    It is not necessary under the laws of the Republic that the Underwriters be licensed, qualified or entitled to carry on business in the Republic by reason of the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the Agreements and the Underwriters will not be deemed resident, domiciled, to be carrying on business or subject to taxation in the Republic solely by reason of the execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements or the enforcement thereof in Chile.

(n)    The Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, with respect to or involving the Constitution, the Government Financial Administration Act, the Sovereign Immunity Act, [the 2020 Budget Law], the Supreme Decree and any other laws, statutes and regulations of or pertaining to the Republic or Chilean law are true and correct as of the date hereof and fairly present the information purported to be shown and the information provided by the Republic in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, and their filing with the Commission has been duly and validly authorized by and on behalf of the Republic and the Registration Statement has been duly and validly executed and filed by the authorized officials of the Republic on behalf of the Republic.

 

A-1-7


(o)    All statements in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus with respect to or involving the Constitution, the Government Financial Administration Act, the Sovereign Immunity Act, [the 2020 Budget Law], the Supreme Decree and any other laws, statutes and regulations of or pertaining to the Republic or Chilean law are true and correct as of the date hereof and fairly present the information purported to be shown; and the information provided by the Republic in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus with respect to itself has been provided by the Republic or any National Government Agency in compliance with the laws and regulations applicable thereto as in effect on the date hereof.

(p)    The statements in the Base Prospectus under the captions “Taxation – Chilean Taxation” and “Description of the Securities” and each of the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement under the caption “Description of the Notes,” insofar as such statements constitute a summary of the documents or matters referred to therein taken as a whole, fairly summarize the provisions of Chilean law therein described.

(q)    The laws of the Republic do not require any statute or regulation or legal or governmental proceeding, or any contract or document of the Republic of any character, to be described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus, other than such statutes, regulations, and proceedings that have been described therein.

(r)    When issued, the Notes and all payments thereon will be free and exempt from any and all taxes, duties or other charges of whatsoever nature of the Republic, except (as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus) for the withholding currently assessed at a rate of four percent on payments of interest to bondholders that are not residents of the Republic and except to the extent that such Notes or payments will be held or received by persons who are subject to tax for reasons other than the mere holding of such Notes or receiving payments thereon.

(s)    The Underwriters are not subject to any taxes, duties or other governmental charges imposed by the Republic or by any political subdivisions or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to any payments received by any of the Underwriters on account of commissions and reimbursement of expenses, provided that such payments qualify as commissions or reimbursement of expenses in each case in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Chilean Commercial Code, Chilean Income Tax Law and guidelines on the subject matter issued by the Servicio de Impuestos Internos (SII), the Chilean internal revenue service.

This opinion is subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally.

In connection with our opinion at paragraphs (c), (f), (j) and (l)(5) above referring to the validity, binding nature and enforceability in Chile and potential conflict with Chilean law or public policy of the indemnification and contribution provisions contained in Section 10 of the

 

A-1-8


Underwriting Agreement, we wish to express that a Chilean court would not find such provisions to be violative of principles of Chilean public policy unless their actual application in a particular case to determine the amount of an indemnification or contribution due by an indemnifying party would, in the judgment of the court, result in a recovery by the indemnified party so arbitrary and unreasonable as to be considered contrary to basic and fundamental principles of the Chilean legal system.

The opinions expressed herein are limited to questions arising under the laws of the Republic. Furthermore, this opinion letter is furnished to you in your capacity as Underwriters under the Underwriting Agreement or as Trustee under the Indenture and is solely for your benefit as such. This opinion letter is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose, without, in each instance, our prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may furnish a copy of this opinion letter (with notice to us, which shall be given before furnishing such copy, when practicable) (a) if required by any applicable law or regulation, (b) to any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you if required by such authority or (c) in connection with any actual or threatened claim against you relating to the issue of the Notes if required to assist you in establishing defenses under applicable securities laws, it being understood and agreed that we assume no duty or liability whatsoever to any person furnished this letter in accordance with this sentence and that any such person is not entitled to rely on this letter in any manner as a result of being furnished this letter or for any other reason.

This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof. Accordingly, any person relying on this opinion letter at any time after the date of this opinion letter should seek advice of its counsel as to the proper application of this opinion letter at such time.

Re: Republic of Chile / Notes Reliance Letter

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion is delivered to you pursuant to Section 8(e)(i)(A) of the Underwriting Agreement dated [●], 2020 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) among the Republic of Chile (the “Republic”) and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Itau BBA USA Securities, Inc. and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. (the “Underwriters”) relating to the issuance and sale by the Republic of US$[●] aggregate principal amount of its [●]% Notes due 20[●] (the “Notes”), which Notes are to be issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”) between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended by the first supplemental indenture, dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The Notes, the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture (collectively, the “Agreements”) are more fully described in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus prepared by the Republic in connection with the issuance of the Notes. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Underwriting Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

Because the primary purpose of our professional engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters or financial accounting or statistical information, and because many determinations involved in the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus are of a wholly or partially non-legal character or relate to legal matters

outside the scope of our opinion letter to you of even date herewith, we are not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (except to the extent expressly set forth in letter (o) of our opinion letter to you of even date herewith) and we make no representation that we have independently verified the accuracy, completeness or fairness of such statements (except as aforesaid). Without limiting the foregoing, we assume no responsibility for, and have not independently verified, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the financial, accounting and statistical data included in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, and we have not examined the financial, accounting or statistical records from which such data or information is derived. We note that certain portions of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus have been included therein on the authority of officials of the Republic, and that we are not experts within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any portion of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus, including, without limitation, the financial, accounting or statistical data included therein.

However, in the course of our acting as special Chilean counsel to the Republic in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, we participated in conferences and telephone conversations with officials of the Republic, representatives of the Underwriters and representatives of New York and Chilean counsel to the Underwriters, during which the contents of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus and related matters were discussed, and we reviewed certain other documents furnished to us by the Republic.

Based on our participation in such conferences and conversations, our review of such documents as described above, according to our limited and non-expert understanding of the United States of America federal securities laws and limited experience we have gained in our practice hereunder, we advise you that:

(a)    No information has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Registration Statement (except the financial, accounting and statistical data included therein, as to which we express no view), as of the date of the Underwriting Agreement, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(b)    No information has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Disclosure Package (except the financial, accounting and statistical data included therein, as to which we express no view), as of the Initial Sale Time, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(c)    No information has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Final Prospectus (except the financial, accounting and statistical data included therein, as to which we express no view), as of the date thereof or hereof, contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

 

A-2-2


The opinions expressed herein are limited to questions arising under the laws of the Republic. We provide this opinion letter to you in our capacity as special Chilean counsel to the Republic. Furthermore, this opinion letter is furnished to you in your capacity as Underwriters under the Underwriting Agreement or as Trustee under the Indenture, and is solely for your benefit as such. This opinion letter is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose, without, in each instance, our prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may furnish a copy of this opinion letter (with notice to us, which shall be given before furnishing such copy, when practicable) (a) if required by any applicable law or regulation, (b) to any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you if required by such authority or (c) in connection with any actual or threatened claim against you relating to the issue of the Notes if required to assist you in establishing defenses under applicable securities laws, it being understood and agreed that we assume no duty or liability whatsoever to any person furnished this letter in accordance with this sentence and that any such person is not entitled to rely on this letter in any manner as a result of being furnished this letter or for any other reason.

This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof. Accordingly, any person relying on this opinion letter at any time after the date of this opinion letter should seek advice of its counsel as to the proper application of this opinion letter at such time.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special United States counsel to the Republic of Chile (the “Republic” or “Chile”) in connection with Chile’s offering pursuant to registration statement (Nos. 333-222495 and 333-235463) under Schedule B of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of US$[●] aggregate principal amount of Chile’s [●]% Notes due 20[●] (the “Notes”), to be issued under an indenture, dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended by the first supplemental indenture, dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). [Registration statement No. 333-222495 as amended as of its most recent effective date, [●], 2020, the date on which the most recent Form 18-K was filed as an amendment thereto, and registration statement No. 333-235463 as of its most recent effective date, [●], 2020], insofar as they relate to the Notes (as determined for purposes of Rule 430B(f)(2) or Rule 462(b), as applicable, under the Securities Act), including the documents incorporated by reference therein, are herein collectively called the “Registration Statements”; the related prospectus dated January [●], 2020, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Base Prospectus”; the preliminary prospectus supplement dated [●], 2020, as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”; and

 

B-1-1


the related prospectus supplement dated [●], 2020, as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Final Prospectus Supplement.” The Base Prospectus and the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement together are herein called the “Pricing Prospectus,” and the Base Prospectus and the Final Prospectus Supplement together are herein called the “Final Prospectus.” This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 8(e)(i)(B) of the underwriting agreement dated [●], 2020 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) between Chile and the several underwriters named above (the “Underwriters”).

In arriving at the opinions expressed below, we have reviewed the following documents:

(a)     a copy of the executed Underwriting Agreement;

(b)     the Registration Statements;

(c)     the Pricing Prospectus and the document listed in Schedule I hereto;

(d)     the Final Prospectus;

(e)     a facsimile copy of the Notes in global form as executed by Chile and authenticated by the Trustee;

(f)     a copy of the Indenture; and

(g)     the documents delivered to you by Chile at the closing pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement.

In addition, we have reviewed the originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of all such other documents and other certificates of public officials and representatives of Chile and such other persons, and we have made such investigations of law, as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinions expressed below.

In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. In addition, we have assumed and have not verified (i) that all agreements and documents we have examined have been duly authorized, executed and delivered pursuant to Chilean law, (ii) that each party has full power, authority and legal right to enter into such agreement or to issue such document, and to perform its obligations thereunder, (iii) that all signatures on all such agreements and documents are genuine, and (iv) the accuracy as to factual matters of each document we have reviewed (including, without limitation, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Chile in the Underwriting Agreement).

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the further assumptions and qualifications set forth below, it is our opinion that:

1.    The Underwriting Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Chile under the law of the State of New York.

 

B-1-2


2.    The Indenture has been duly executed and delivered by Chile under the law of the State of New York and is a valid, binding and enforceable agreement of Chile.

3.    The Notes have been duly executed and delivered by Chile under the law of the State of New York, and, assuming their due authentication in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and delivery and payment in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Notes are valid, binding and enforceable obligations of Chile, entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

4.    The issuance and sale of the Notes to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement do not, and the performance by Chile of its obligations in the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes, will not require any consent, approval, authorization, registration or qualification of or with any governmental authority of the United States of America or the State of New York that in our experience normally would be applicable in relation to transactions of the type contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture, except such as have been obtained or effected under the Securities Act (but we express no opinion relating to any state securities or Blue Sky laws).

5.    Assuming validity under the laws of Chile, under the laws of the State of New York relating to submission to jurisdiction, Chile, pursuant to Section 17(b) of the Underwriting Agreement, Section 9.7(b) of the Indenture and Paragraph 16(b) of the terms and conditions of the Notes, has (i) validly and irrevocably submitted to the personal jurisdiction of any New York State or U.S. federal court located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and any appellee court thereto, in any action or proceeding arising out of or related to the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture or the Notes commenced by any Underwriter, the Trustee or any holder of the Notes, (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, validly and irrevocably waived any objection to the venue of any such action in any such court, and (iii) validly appointed the Consul General in The City of New York as its initial authorized agent for the purpose described in Section 17(b) of the Underwriting Agreement and Section 9.7(c) of the Indenture; service of process effected in the manner set forth in Section 17(b) of the Underwriting Agreement and Section 9.7(c) of the Indenture will be effective to confer valid personal jurisdiction over Chile in any such action.

6.    Assuming the validity of such action under the law of Chile, the waiver by Chile, pursuant to Section 19(a) of the Underwriting Agreement, Section 9.7(f) of the Indenture and Paragraph 16(e) of the terms and conditions of the Notes, respectively, of any immunity (including sovereign immunity, and immunity from pre-judgment attachment, post-judgment attachment and execution) from suit, action, proceeding or jurisdiction to which it may otherwise be entitled with respect to any action or proceeding arising out of or with respect to the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture or the Notes, respectively, is legal, valid and binding under New York and U.S. federal law, subject as set forth below.

7.    The statements under the headings “Description of the Securities” in the Base Prospectus and “Description of the Notes” in each of the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement considered together with the documents listed in Schedule I and the Final Prospectus Supplement, insofar as such statements purport to summarize certain provisions of the Notes and the Indenture, provide a fair summary of such provisions.

 

B-1-3


8.    The statements under the heading “Taxation—United States Federal Taxation” in each of the Pricing Prospectus considered together with the documents listed in Schedule I hereto and the Final Prospectus, insofar as such statements purport to summarize federal income tax laws of the United States of America referred to thereunder, constitute a fair summary of the principal U.S. federal income tax consequences of a purchase of the Notes.

Insofar as the foregoing opinions relate to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any agreement or obligation of Chile, (i) we have assumed that Chile and each other party to such agreement or obligation has satisfied those legal requirements that are applicable to it to the extent necessary to make such agreement or obligation enforceable against it (except that no such assumption is made as to Chile regarding matters of the federal law of the United States of America or the law of the State of New York that in our experience normally would be applicable in relation to transactions of the type contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture), (ii) such opinions are subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, to general principles of equity and (iii) such opinions are subject to the effect of judicial application of foreign laws or foreign governmental actions affecting creditors’ rights.

We note that the enforceability of the waiver of immunities by Chile set forth in Section 19(a) of the Underwriting Agreement, Section 9.7(e) of the Indenture, and Paragraph 16(e) of the terms and conditions of the Notes, is subject to the limitations imposed by the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976. We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any such waiver of immunity to the extent that it purports to apply to any immunity to which Chile may become entitled after the date thereof.

We also note that the designation in Section 17(b) of the Underwriting Agreement, Section 9.7(b) of the Indenture and Paragraph 16(b) of the terms and conditions of the Notes of the U.S. federal courts sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, as the venue for actions or proceedings relating to the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes is (notwithstanding the waiver in Section 19(a) of the Underwriting Agreement, Section 9.7(e) of the Indenture and Paragraph 16(e) of the terms and conditions of the Notes) subject to the power of such courts to transfer actions pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §1404(a) or to dismiss such actions or proceedings on the grounds that such federal court is an inconvenient forum for such action or proceeding.

We express no opinion as to the enforceability of Paragraph 17 of the terms and conditions of the Notes relating to currency indemnity.

The foregoing opinions are limited to the federal law of the United States of America and the law of the State of New York.

We are furnishing this opinion letter to you, as Underwriters, solely for your benefit in your capacity as Underwriters in connection with the offering of the Notes. This opinion letter is not to be relied on by or furnished to any other person or used, circulated, quoted

 

B-1-4


or otherwise referred to for any other purpose. The opinions expressed herein are rendered on and as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to advise you or any other person, or to make any investigations, as to any legal developments or factual matters arising subsequent to the date hereof that might affect the opinions expressed herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may furnish a copy of this opinion letter (with notice to us, which shall be given before furnishing such copy, when practicable) (a) if required by any applicable law or regulation, (b) to any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you if required by such authority, or (c) in connection with any actual or threatened claim against you relating to the issue of the Notes if required to assist you in establishing defenses under applicable securities laws, it being understood and agreed that we assume no duty or liability whatsoever to any person furnished this letter in accordance with this sentence and that any such person is not entitled to rely on this letter in any manner as a result of being furnished this letter or for any other reason.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special United States counsel to the Republic of Chile (the “Republic” or “Chile”) in connection with Chile’s offering pursuant to registration statements (Nos. 333-222495 and 333-235463) under Schedule B of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of US$[●] aggregate principal amount of Chile’s [●]% Notes due 20[●] (the “Notes”), to be issued under an indenture, dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended by the first supplemental indenture, dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). [Registration statement No. 333-222495 as amended as of its most recent effective date, [●], 2020, the date on which the most recent Form 18-K was filed as an amendment thereto, and registration statement No. 333-235463 as of its most recent effective date, [●], 2020], insofar as they relate to the Notes (as determined for purposes of Rule 430B(f)(2) or Rule 462(b), as applicable, under the Securities Act), including the documents incorporated by reference therein, are herein collectively called the “Registration Statements”; the related prospectus dated [●], 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Base Prospectus;” the related preliminary prospectus supplement dated [●], 2020, as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, including the documents

 

B-2-1


incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement;” and the related prospectus supplement dated [●], 2020, as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Final Prospectus Supplement.” The Base Prospectus and the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement together are herein called the “Pricing Prospectus,” and the Base Prospectus and the Final Prospectus Supplement together are herein called the “Final Prospectus.” This letter is furnished to you pursuant to Section 8(e)(i)(B) of the underwriting agreement dated [●], 2020 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) between Chile and the underwriters named above (the “Underwriters”).

Because the primary purpose of our professional engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters or financial, accounting or statistical information, and because many determinations involved in the preparation of the Registration Statements, the Pricing Prospectus, the Final Prospectus and the document listed in Schedule I hereto are of a wholly or partially non-legal character or relate to legal matters outside the scope of our opinion letter to you of even date herewith, we are not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statements, the Pricing Prospectus, the Final Prospectus or the document listed in Schedule I hereto (except to the extent expressly set forth in numbered paragraphs 7 and 8 of our opinion letter to you of even date herewith) and we make no representation that we have independently verified the accuracy, completeness or fairness of such statements (except as aforesaid). We also are not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for ascertaining whether or when any of the Pricing Prospectus, the Final Prospectus or the document identified in Schedule I hereto was conveyed to any person for purposes of Rule 159 under the Securities Act. We note that certain portions of the Registration Statements, the Pricing Prospectus and the Final Prospectus have been included therein on the authority of officials of Chile, and that we are not experts within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any portion of the Registration Statements, the Pricing Prospectus or the Final Prospectus, including, without limitation, the financial, accounting or statistical data included therein.

However, in the course of our acting as special United States counsel to Chile in connection with its preparation of the Registration Statements, the Pricing Prospectus, the Final Prospectus (but excluding the documents incorporated by reference in each of them) and the document listed in Schedule I hereto, we participated in telephone conversations with officials of the Republic, representatives of the Republic’s Chilean counsel, your representatives and representatives of your New York and Chilean counsel, during which telephone conversations the contents of the Registration Statements, the Pricing Prospectus, the Final Prospectus and the document listed in Schedule I hereto and related matters were discussed, and we reviewed the documents incorporated by reference in each of the Registration Statements, the Pricing Prospectus, the Final Prospectus and certain records and documents furnished to us by Chile.

Based on our participation in such telephone conversations and our review of such documents as described above, our understanding of the U.S. federal securities laws and the experience we have gained in our practice thereunder, we advise you that:

 

B-2-2


(a)     The Registration Statements (except the financial, accounting and statistical data included therein, as to which we express no view, and Exhibit 99.C to the Republic’s Annual Report on Form 18-K for the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Annual Report”), as to which we express no view), as of their most recent effective dates, [●], 2020 [and [●], 2020, respectively], and the Final Prospectus (except as aforesaid), as of the date thereof, appear on their face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities Act and the applicable rules and regulations thereunder.

(b)    No information has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Registration Statements (except the financial, accounting and statistical data included therein, as to which we express no view, and Exhibit 99.C to the Annual Report, as to which we express no view), as of their most recent effective date[s], [●], 2020 [and [●], 2020, respectively], contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

(c)    No information has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Pricing Prospectus, considered together with the document listed in Schedule I hereto (except the financial, accounting and statistical data included therein, as to which we express no view, and Exhibit 99.C to the Annual Report, as to which we express no view) at [●] [a.m. / p.m.] [New York time], contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(d)    No information has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Final Prospectus (except the financial, accounting and statistical data included therein, as to which we express no view, and Exhibit 99.C to the Annual Report, as to which we express no view), as of the date thereof or hereof, contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

We confirm to you that (a) based solely upon our review of the Notices of Effectiveness on the website of the Commission, the Registration Statements are effective under the Securities Act, and (b) based solely upon a review of filings on the website of the Commission, no stop order with respect thereto has been issued by the Commission, and, to the best of our knowledge, no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or threatened by the Commission.

We are furnishing this letter to you, as Underwriters, solely for your benefit in your capacity as Underwriters in connection with the offering of the Notes. This letter is not to be relied on by or furnished to any other person or used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose. We assume no obligation to advise you or any other person, or to make any investigations, as to any legal developments or factual matters arising subsequent to the date hereof that might affect the views expressed herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may furnish a copy of this letter (with notice to us, which shall be given before furnishing such copy,

 

B-2-3


when practicable) (a) if required by any applicable law or regulation, (b) to any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you if required by such authority, or (c) in connection with any actual or threatened claim against you relating to the issue of the Notes if required to assist you in establishing defenses under applicable securities laws, it being understood and agreed that we assume no duty or liability whatsoever to any person furnished this letter in accordance with this sentence and that any such person is not entitled to rely on this letter in any manner as a result of being furnished this letter or for any other reason.

Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Underwriting Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

 

C-1-1


We have acted as special Chilean counsel to the Underwriters in connection with the Agreements and issuance of the Notes. In connection with this opinion we have examined:

 

  1.

an executed copy of each Agreement and the forms of the Notes;

 

  2.

the registration statement on Schedule B (No. 333-235463) initially filed by the Republic under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 12, 2019 (such registration statement, including the documents and information deemed to be a part thereof at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, and the documents incorporated by reference therein, respectively), hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Registration Statement”);

 

  3.

the base prospectus, dated [●], 2020, included as part of the Registration Statement (the base prospectus being hereinafter referred to as the “Base Prospectus”);

 

  4.

the preliminary prospectus supplement, dated [●], 2020 relating to the Notes (the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”);

 

  5.

the final prospectus supplement, dated [●], 2020, relating to the Notes (the “Final Prospectus Supplement”) (the Base Prospectus, as supplemented by the Final Prospectus Supplement, in the form it was filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, being hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Final Prospectus”);

 

  6.

the Authorization delivered by the Republic as contemplated by the Indenture;

 

  7.

the Political Constitution of the Republic (Constitución Política de la República de Chile) dated 1980, as amended (the “Constitution”);

 

  8.

Decree Law No. 1,263 (Decreto Ley N°1.263) of November 21, 1975, as amended, providing for the rules of financial administration and governance of the Republic (the “Government Financial Administration Act”);

 

  9.

Decree Law No. 2,349 (Decreto Ley N°2.349) of October 13, 1978, as amended, on sovereign immunity of the Chilean State (the “Sovereign Immunity Act”);

C-1-2


  12.

such other documents, agreements and instruments and such treaties, laws, rules, decrees and the like as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter expressed.

As used herein, “Disclosure Package” means the Base Prospectus, the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, and the issuer free writing prospectuses identified on Schedule III to the Underwriting Agreement, if any.

We have assumed for purposes of this opinion: (i) that the Agreements and all other documents to be executed and delivered thereunder have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Underwriters and the Trustee, as the case may be, and that each such party has adequate power, authority and legal right to enter into each Agreement to which they are a party; (ii) the authenticity of all documents examined by us (and the completeness of and conformity to the originals of any copies thereof submitted to us) and the genuineness of all signatures; (iii) that the Underwriting Agreement has not been terminated pursuant to Section 14 thereof; (iv) that the execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements and the other documents and instruments provided for by the Agreements, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will not contravene or breach, or result in a default under, or require any consent of any person under, any agreement or other document or instrument to which any of the parties to any thereof (other than the Republic) is a party or by which it is bound; and (v) that any documents referred to in our opinion and executed by the Republic, which are stated to be governed by and construed in accordance with New York law, based on the opinions contained herein, will have been duly authorized, executed and delivered pursuant to New York law.

Also, in rendering this opinion we have relied, without independent investigation, (i) to the extent this opinion involves any matter of United States Federal and New York law, upon the opinion of Shearman & Sterling LLP, special U.S. counsel to the Underwriters, of this date, rendered pursuant to Section 8(e)(i)(D) of the Underwriting Agreement, and (ii) as to matters of fact, to the extent we have deemed proper, on certificates of officers of the Republic and certificates or other written statements of Chilean officials having custody of relevant documents.

Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

 

(a)

The Republic has full power and authority to execute and deliver each of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes and all other documents and instruments to be executed and delivered by the Republic thereunder, to incur the obligations to be incurred by it as provided therein and to perform and observe the provisions thereof on its part to be performed or observed and to issue and sell the Notes and to perform the terms thereof.

 

(b)

The issuance and sale of the Notes and the execution and delivery of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes by the Republic and all other documents and instruments to be executed and delivered by the Republic thereunder and the performance of its obligations thereunder have been duly and validly authorized by the Republic.

 

(c)

Each of the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Republic and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Republic enforceable against the Republic in accordance with the terms thereof.

 

C-1-3


(d)

The Notes, when duly (A) executed by (i) the representative of the Republic designated in accordance with the Supreme Decree and (ii) the Treasurer General of the Republic (Tesorero General de la República) (or his/her representative designated in accordance with the Supreme Decree), (B) authenticated (“refrendados”) by the Comptroller General of the Republic (Contralor General de la República) (or his/her representative designated in accordance with the Supreme Decree) and, based on our understanding that the Indenture (which is governed by New York law) so requires, authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the Indenture, and (C) delivered and paid for in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement, will be legal, valid and binding obligations of the Republic enforceable against the Republic in accordance with the terms thereof and entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

 

(e)

No consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any court, government or governmental agency or body or any third party is required to be taken, fulfilled, performed or obtained in the Republic (including, without limitation, the obtaining of any consent, approval or license or the making of any filing or registration) for the execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements by the Republic, or for the issue, sale, delivery and performance of the Notes as contemplated therein and in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by the Agreements and compliance by the Republic with the terms of the Agreements, as the case may be, or for the legality, enforceability, validity or admissibility into evidence of the Agreements (including the Notes) against the Republic, except for the authorizations contained in Article 3 of Law No. [●] and in the Supreme Decree all of which have been duly obtained and are in full force and effect on the date hereof.

 

(f)

The execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements by the Republic, the issuance, sale, delivery and performance of the Notes as contemplated therein, the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by the Agreements and compliance by the Republic with the terms of the Agreements, as the case may be, do not (i) conflict with or result in a breach of the Constitution, the Government Financial Administration Act, the Sovereign Immunity Act, Law No. [●], the Supreme Decree or any other constitutional provision, any provision of any treaty, convention, statute, law, regulation, decree, judgment, order of any government, governmental body or court , domestic or foreign court order or similar authority binding upon the Republic, (ii) conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any fiscal agency agreement, trust deed, mortgage or other agreement to which the Republic or any National Governmental Agency is a party or by which any of them or any of their respective properties or assets are bound or (iii) result in the creation of any lien or encumbrance upon such properties or assets.

 

(g)

To the best of our knowledge after due inquiry, other than as set forth or contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus, there are no pending or, threatened, actions or proceedings (foreign or domestic) against or affecting the Republic or any National Governmental Agency which, if determined adversely to the Republic or any such National Governmental Agency, would reasonably be expected individually or in the aggregate to have a materially adverse effect on the financial

 

C-1-4


  condition or revenues and expenditures of the Republic or would materially adversely affect the ability of the Republic to perform its obligations under the Agreements, or which are otherwise material in the context of the issuance of the Notes.

 

(h)

Except as disclosed in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, there is no tax, duty, levy, impost, deduction, governmental charge or withholding imposed by the Republic or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein by virtue of the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Agreements (except for court fees and taxes incurred in connection with enforcement proceedings) or to ensure the legality, enforceability, validity or admissibility into evidence of the Agreements or of any other document to be furnished thereunder and neither is it necessary that the Agreements be submitted to, filed or recorded with any court or other authority in the Republic to ensure such legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility into evidence (except for a translation into Spanish of the Agreements and/or the Notes performed by a translator appointed by a competent Chilean court, which is required in order to bring an action thereon in the courts of Chile).

 

(i)

When duly issued, executed and authenticated as described in (d) above, the Notes will be the direct, unconditional and unsecured obligations of the Republic, the full faith and credit of the Republic will have been pledged for the due and punctual payment of the principal of, interest on, and any Additional Amounts or other amounts required to be paid with respect to, the Notes, and the performance of the obligations therein contained; when issued, the Notes will rank pari passu in priority of payment, in right of security and in all other respects with all other External Indebtedness (as defined in the Terms and Conditions of the Notes) with respect to the Republic now or hereafter outstanding (except to the extent any such other External Indebtedness ranks above such obligations solely by reason of Liens (as defined in the Terms and Conditions of the Notes)).

 

(j)

The execution, delivery and performance of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the other documents referred to therein, and the issuance and sale of the Notes and the performance of the terms thereof by the Republic, constitute private and commercial acts rather than public or governmental acts. As described in the Registration Statement, the Final Prospectus and the Disclosure Package, the Republic has validly waived with respect to itself and its property any immunity it may now or in the future enjoy, including immunity (i) from jurisdiction of any court, (ii) from set-off any legal process in the courts of the Republic other than attachment prior to judgment and attachment in aid of execution or (iii) from set-off or any legal process in any court other than a court of the Republic (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution or otherwise); provided, however, that no attachment is possible with respect to properties of the Republic located in Chile, and provided, further, that with respect to the movable and immovable property of the Republic used for diplomatic and consular missions, including the residence of the head of such missions, or for military purposes (including any property of military character or under the control of a military authority or defense agency), the waiver of immunity by the Republic is prohibited by the laws of the Republic. The waiver of immunity and waiver of objection to laying of venue and defense of inconvenient forum by the Republic contained in Section 19(a) of the Underwriting Agreement, Section 9.7(f) of the Indenture and paragraph 15(d) of the Terms and

 

C-1-5


  Conditions of the Notes, the appointment by the Republic of process agent in Section 17(b) of the Underwriting Agreement and Section 9.7(b) of the Indenture, the consent by the Republic to the jurisdiction of the courts specified in such sections and paragraph and the provisions in Section 17(a) of the Underwriting Agreement, Section 9.7(a) of the Indenture and paragraph 15(a) of the Terms and Conditions of the Notes that the laws of the State of New York shall govern the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes, are irrevocably binding on the Republic.

 

(k)

Each of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Registered Global Notes is (and, upon execution, delivery and authentication in accordance with paragraph (d) above, a Definitive Registered Note (as defined in the Notes) will be) in proper form under the laws of the Republic for the enforcement of a final and conclusive judgment in the courts of Chile, and in the legal action of such courts, such courts (a) would recognize and give effect to the respective provisions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Notes that such documents be governed by the laws of the State of New York and (b) would accordingly enforce the final and conclusive judgment made by a New York court. However, for its enforceability and admissibility in evidence in the Republic, each such document would need to be duly translated into Spanish by a translator appointed by a competent Chilean court.

 

(l)

A final, valid and conclusive judgment for the payment of a fixed or readily calculable sum of money against the Republic (a “Monetary Judgment”) rendered by any New York State or Federal court sitting in The City of New York having jurisdiction under its laws, over the Republic, in an action arising out of or relating to the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture or the Notes, as the case may be, would be recognized and enforced against the Republic by the courts of Chile without re-examination or review of the merits of the cause of action in respect of which the original Monetary Judgment was given nor re-litigation of the matters adjudicated upon nor payment of any stamp, registration or similar tax or duty except for court and consular fees and other charges incurred in connection with enforcement proceedings and legalization of exequatur or rogatory documents; provided that the following conditions are met (the existence or non-existence of which would be determined by the Supreme Court of Chile):

 

  (i)

if there exists a treaty as to the enforcement of judgments between Chile and the United States of America, such treaty will be applied. As at the date hereof no such treaty currently exists between Chile and the United States of America; or

 

  (ii)

if there is no treaty, the Monetary Judgment will be enforced if there is reciprocity as to the enforcement of judgments (i.e., a United States court would enforce a comparable judgment of a Chilean court under comparable circumstances);

 

  (iii)

if it can be proved that there is no reciprocity the Monetary Judgment cannot be enforced in Chile;

 

C-1-6


  (iv)

if reciprocity cannot be proved, the judgment will be enforced if it has not been rendered by default within the meaning of Chilean law, that is if valid service of process was made upon the parties to the action unless the defendant was able to prove that due to other reasons it was prevented from assuming its defense. However, under Chilean law, service of process by means of mailing copies to the Republic will not be deemed effective to cause proper service of process and, consequently, any judgment rendered in a legal proceeding in which process was served by means of mailing copies may be then effectively contested by the Republic in Chile; and

 

  (v)

in any event, the judgment shall not be contrary to the public policy of the Republic of Chile, and shall not affect in any way properties located in Chile, which are, as a matter of Chilean law, subject exclusively to the jurisdiction of Chilean courts. In this regard, other than as discussed in our qualification at the end of this opinion, we are not aware of any public policy that would affect the enforcement in Chile of a judgment in respect of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture or the Notes.

Upon compliance with the above, the courts in the Republic will enforce a final and conclusive Monetary Judgment rendered by a New York State or Federal court sitting in The City of New York having jurisdiction, under its laws, over the Republic, in an action arising out of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture or the Notes, as the case may be, in accordance with the procedure contemplated by the Chilean Code of Civil Procedure for the enforcement of foreign judgments. To enforce such Monetary Judgment in Chile rendered in relation to the Agreements or the Notes against the Republic, the Monetary Judgment must be presented to the Supreme Court of Chile, in duly legalized (by the Chilean Consul in New York) form and translated into the Spanish language by a translator appointed by a competent Chilean court. Said Court will hear whatever presentation the Republic wishes to make, which hearing will be limited to aspects relating to such enforcement and not to substantive issues resolved in the Monetary Judgment. The Supreme Court will also hear the Supreme Court Prosecutor (“Fiscal Judicial”) as to such limited aspects, and, with only this background, the Supreme Court will declare whether or not the Monetary Judgment should be enforced. If the Supreme Court orders the Republic to perform any payment obligation, the facts must be made known to the President of the Republic so that he/she may issue a supreme decree ordering enforcement of such Monetary Judgment within a 60-day period. The President of the Republic is prohibited by express mandate of the Constitution from exercising judicial functions as well as from reviewing the basis for and the contents of the court’s decision.

We express no opinion as to the enforceability in Chile of a foreign judgment against the Republic that is not a Monetary Judgment or that has been obtained in any court other than the New York State or Federal courts sitting in New York City.

 

(m)

It is not necessary under the laws of the Republic that the Underwriters be licensed, qualified or entitled to carry on business in the Republic by reason of the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of any of the Agreements and the Underwriters will not be deemed resident, domiciled, to be carrying on business or subject to taxation in the Republic solely by reason of the execution, delivery and performance of the Agreements or the enforcement thereof in Chile.

 

C-1-7


(n)

The Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, with respect to or involving the Constitution, the Government Financial Administration Act, the Sovereign Immunity Act, Law No. [●] and any other laws, statutes and regulations of or pertaining to the Republic or Chilean law are true and correct as of the date hereof and fairly present the information purported to be shown and the information provided by the Republic in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus with respect to itself has been provided by the authorized officials of the Republic on behalf of the Republic.

 

(o)

All statements in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus with respect to or involving the Constitution, the Government Financial Administration Act, the Sovereign Immunity Act, Law No. [●], the Supreme Decree and any other laws, statutes and regulations of or pertaining to the Republic or Chilean law are true and correct as of the date hereof and fairly present the information purported to be shown; and the information provided by the Republic in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus with respect to itself has been provided by the Republic or any National Government Agency in compliance with the laws and regulations applicable thereto as in effect on the date hereof.

 

(p)

The statements in the Base Prospectus, under the captions “Taxation – Chilean Taxation” and “Description of the Securities,” and each of the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement under the caption “Description of the Notes,” insofar as such statements constitute a summary of the documents or matters referred to therein taken as a whole, fairly summarize the provisions of Chilean law therein described.

 

(q)

The laws of the Republic do not require any statute or regulation or legal or governmental proceeding or any contract or document of the Republic of any character, to be described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus, other than such statutes, regulations, and proceedings that have been described therein.

 

(r)

When issued, the Notes and all payments thereon will be free and exempt from any and all taxes, duties or other charges of whatsoever nature of the Republic, except (as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus), for the withholding currently assessed on payments of interest to bondholders that are not residents of the Republic and except to the extent that such Notes or payments will be held or received by persons who are subject to tax for reasons other than the mere holding of such Notes or receiving payments thereon.

 

(s)

The Underwriters are not subject to any taxes, duties or other governmental charges imposed by the Republic or by any political subdivisions or taxing authority thereof or therein with respect to any payments received by any of the Underwriters on account of commissions and reimbursement of expenses.

 

C-1-8


This opinion is subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally.

In connection with our opinion at paragraphs (c), (f), (j) and (l)(iv) above referring to the validity, binding nature and enforceability in Chile and potential conflict with Chilean law or public policy of the indemnification and contribution provisions contained in Section 10 of the Underwriting Agreement, we wish to express that a Chilean court would not find such provisions to be violative of principles of Chilean public policy unless their actual application in a particular case to determine the amount of an indemnification or contribution due by an indemnifying party would, in the judgment of the court, result in a recovery by the indemnified party so arbitrary and unreasonable as to be considered contrary to basic and fundamental principles of the Chilean legal system.

The opinions expressed herein are limited to questions arising under the laws of the Republic. Furthermore, this opinion letter is furnished to you in your capacity as Underwriters under the Underwriting Agreement or as Trustee under the Indenture, and is solely for your benefit as such. This opinion letter is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose without, in each instance, our prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may furnish a copy of this opinion letter (with notice to us, which shall be given before furnishing such copy, when practicable) (a) if required by any applicable law or regulation, (b) to any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you if required by such authority or (c) in connection with any actual or threatened claim against you relating to the issue of the Notes if required to assist you in establishing defenses under applicable securities laws, it being understood and agreed that we assume no duty or liability whatsoever to any person furnished this letter in accordance with this sentence and that any such person is not entitled to rely on this letter in any manner as a result of being furnished this letter or for any other reason.

This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof. Accordingly, any person relying on this opinion letter at any time after the date of this opinion letter should seek advice of its counsel as to the proper application of this opinion letter at such time.

Republic of Chile

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion is delivered to you pursuant to Section 8(e)(i)(C) of the Underwriting Agreement dated [●], 2020 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) among the Republic of Chile (the “Republic”) and Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Itau BBA USA Securities, Inc. and Scotia Capital (USA) Inc. (the “Underwriters”) relating to the issuance and sale by the Republic of US$[●] aggregate principal amount of its [●]% Notes due 20[●] (the “Notes”), which Notes are to be issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”) between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended by the first supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The Notes, the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture (collectively, the “Agreements”) are more fully described in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus prepared by the Republic in connection with the issuance of the Notes. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Underwriting Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

 

C-2-1


Because the primary purpose of our professional engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters or financial accounting or statistical information, and because many determinations involved in the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus are of a wholly or partially non-legal character or relate to legal matters outside the scope of our opinion letter to you of even date herewith, we are not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (except to the extent expressly set forth in letter (o) of our opinion letter to you of even date herewith) and we make no representation that we have independently verified the accuracy, completeness or fairness of such statements (except as aforesaid). Without limiting the foregoing, we assume no responsibility for, and have not independently verified, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the financial, accounting and statistical data included in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, and we have not examined the financial, accounting or statistical records from which such data or information is derived. We note that certain portions of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus have been included therein on the authority of officials of the Republic, and that we are not experts within the meaning of the Securities Act with respect to any portion of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus, including, without limitation, the financial, accounting or statistical data included therein.

However, in the course of our acting as special Chilean counsel to the Underwriters in connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, we participated in conferences and telephone conversations with officials of the Republic, your representatives, representatives of your New York counsel, and representatives of New York and Chilean counsel to the Republic, during which the contents of the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final

Prospectus and related matters were discussed, and we reviewed certain other documents furnished to us by the Republic.

Based on our participation in such conferences and conversations, our review of such documents as described above according to our limited and non-expert understanding of the United States of America federal securities laws and limited experience we have gained in our practice thereunder, we advise you that:

 

(a)

No information has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Registration Statement (except the financial, accounting and statistical data included therein, as to which we express no view), as of the date of the Underwriting Agreement, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

 

(b)

No information has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Disclosure Package (except the financial, accounting and statistical data included therein, as to which we express no view), as of the Initial Sale Time, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

 

C-2-2


(c)

No information has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Final Prospectus (except the financial, accounting and statistical data included therein, as to which we express no view), as of the date thereof or hereof, contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The opinions expressed herein are limited to questions arising under the laws of the Republic. We provide this opinion letter to you in our capacity as special Chilean counsel to the Underwriters. Furthermore, this opinion letter is furnished to you in your capacity as Underwriters under the Underwriting Agreement or as Trustee under the Indenture, and is solely for your benefit as such. This opinion letter is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose without, in each instance, our prior written consent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may furnish a copy of this opinion letter (with notice to us, which shall be given before furnishing such copy, when practicable) (a) if required by any applicable law or regulation, (b) to any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you if required by such authority or (c) in connection with any actual or threatened claim against you relating to the issue of the Notes if required to assist you in establishing defenses under applicable securities laws, it being understood and agreed that we assume no duty or liability whatsoever to any person furnished this letter in accordance with this sentence and that any such person is not entitled to rely on this letter in any manner as a result of being furnished this letter or for any other reason.

This opinion letter speaks only as of the date hereof. Accordingly, any person relying on this opinion letter at any time after the date of this opinion letter should seek advice of its counsel as to the proper application of this opinion letter at such time.

FORM OF OPINION

OF

SHEARMAN & STERLING LLP

SPECIAL NEW YORK COUNSEL TO THE UNDERWRITERS

[●] , 2020

Citigroup Global Markets Inc.

388 Greenwich Street New York,

New York 10013

Itau BBA USA Securities, Inc.

540 Madison Avenue, 23rd Floor New York,

Republic of Chile

US$[●] [●] % Notes due 20[●]

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as your counsel in connection with the purchase by you from the Republic of Chile (the “Republic”) of US$[●] aggregate principal amount of its [●]% Notes due 20[●] (the “Notes”), pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated [●], 2020 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) among the Republic and each of you. The Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture (the “Base Indenture”) dated as of December 12, 2014 between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended by the first supplemental indenture, dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 8(e)(i)(D) of the Underwriting Agreement.

In that connection, we have reviewed originals or copies of the following documents:

(a)    the Underwriting Agreement;

(b)    the Indenture; and

 

D-1-1


(c)    the Notes in global form as executed by the Republic.

The documents described in the foregoing clauses (a) through (c) are collectively referred to herein as the “Opinion Documents”.

We have also reviewed the following:

 

  (a)

The shelf registration statement on Schedule B (Registration No. 333-235463) initially filed by the Republic under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) on December 12, 2019 (such registration statement, including the documents and information deemed to be a part thereof at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430B(f) under the Securities Act, and the documents incorporated by reference therein, hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Registration Statement”).

 

  (b)

The base prospectus, dated [●], 2020, and forming a part of the Registration Statement with respect to the offering from time to time of the securities described therein (the “Base Prospectus”).

 

  (c)

The preliminary prospectus supplement relating to the Notes, dated [●], 2020 (the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”) (the Base Prospectus, as amended and supplemented by the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement, in the form first filed by the Republic pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act with the Commission, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, hereinafter referred to as the “Preliminary Prospectus”).

 

  (d)

The free writing prospectus of the Republic relating to the Notes, dated [●], 2020, in the form first filed by the Republic pursuant to Rule 433 under the Securities Act with the Commission (the “Free Writing Prospectus”).

 

  (e)

The final prospectus supplement relating to the Notes, dated [●], 2020 (the “Final Prospectus Supplement”) (the Base Prospectus, as amended and supplemented by the Final Prospectus Supplement, in the form first filed by the Republic pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act with the Commission, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, hereinafter referred to as the “Prospectus”); and

 

  (f)

originals or copies of such certificates of public officials, officers and representatives of the Republic and other documents as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below.

In our review of the Opinion Documents and other documents, we have assumed:

 

  (a)

The genuineness of all signatures.

 

  (b)

The authenticity of the originals of the documents submitted to us.

 

D-1-2


  (c)

The conformity to authentic originals of any documents submitted to us as copies.

 

  (d)

As to matters of fact, the truthfulness of the representations made in the Underwriting Agreement and the other Opinion Documents and in certificates of public officials and officers of the Republic and other appropriate persons and of the statements contained in the Final Prospectus.

 

  (e)

That each of the Opinion Documents is the legal, valid and binding obligation of each party thereto, other than the Republic, enforceable against each such party in accordance with its terms;

 

  (f)

That:

 

  (i)

Under the laws of Chile, the Republic has power and authority to execute, deliver and perform, and has duly authorized, executed and delivered (except to the extent Generally Applicable Law (as defined below) is applicable to such execution and delivery), the Opinion Documents to which it is a party.

 

  (ii)

The execution, delivery and performance by the Republic of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party have been duly authorized by all necessary governmental action and do not and will not, except with respect to Generally Applicable Law, violate any law, rule or regulation applicable to it.

 

  (g)

That the execution, delivery and performance by the Republic of the Opinion Documents to which it is a party do not and will not result in any conflict with or breach of any agreement or document binding on it.

 

  (h)

That, except with respect to Generally Applicable Law, no authorization, approval, consent or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body or any other third party is required for the due execution, delivery or performance by the Republic of any Opinion Document to which it is a party or, if any such authorization, approval, consent, action, notice or filing is required, it has been duly obtained, taken, given or made and is in full force and effect.

We have not independently established the validity of the foregoing assumptions.

Generally Applicable Law” means the federal law of the United States of America, and the law of the State of New York (including in each case the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder or pursuant thereto), that a New York lawyer exercising customary professional diligence would reasonably be expected to recognize as being applicable to the Republic, the Opinion Documents or the transactions governed by the Opinion Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing definition of Generally Applicable Law, the term “Generally Applicable Law” does not include any law, rule or regulation that is applicable to the Republic, the Opinion Documents or such transactions solely because such law, rule or regulation is part of a regulatory regime applicable to any party to any of the Opinion Documents or any of its affiliates due to the specific assets or business of such party or such affiliate.

 

D-1-3


On [●], 2020, at approximately [●], the Commission’s website did not indicate the existence of a stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement.

Based upon the foregoing and upon such other investigation as we have deemed necessary and subject to the qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

 

  1.

The Underwriting Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Republic, to the extent such execution and delivery is a matter of New York law.

 

  2.

The Indenture has been duly executed and delivered by the Republic to the extent such execution and delivery is a matter of New York law and is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Republic, enforceable against the Republic in accordance with its terms.

 

  3.

The Notes have been duly executed by the Republic to the extent such execution is a matter of New York law, and, when authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the Indenture and delivered and paid for as provided in the Underwriting Agreement, the Notes will be the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Republic, enforceable against the Republic in accordance with their terms and entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

 

  4.

The statements under the caption “Description of the Debt Securities” in the Base Prospectus and under the caption “Description of the Notes” in each of the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement, in each case, insofar as such statements constitute summaries of documents referred to therein, fairly summarize in all material respects the documents referred to therein.

Our opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:

 

  (a)

Our opinions in paragraphs 2 and 3 above are subject to (i) the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally (including without limitation all laws relating to fraudulent transfers) and (ii) possible judicial action giving effect to governmental actions or foreign laws affecting creditors’ rights.

 

  (b)

Our opinions in paragraphs 2 and 3 above are also subject to the effect of general principles of equity, including without limitation concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

 

  (c)

Our opinions are limited to Generally Applicable Law and we do not express any opinion herein concerning any other law.

  (d)

To the extent that the Republic is entitled to immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from legal process with respect to itself or its property, any waiver by the Republic of such immunity is subject to the limitations imposed by the United States Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976, as amended. We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any such waiver of immunity to the extent that it purports to apply to any immunity to which the Republic may become entitled after the date hereof.

 

  (e)

We express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of any indemnity against any loss in converting into a specified currency the proceeds or amount of a court judgment in another currency.

 

  (f)

We express no opinion with respect to Section 19(a) of the Underwriting Agreement, Section 9.7(f) of the Indenture and Paragraph 16(d) of the Terms and Conditions of the Notes to the extent that such Sections (i) contain a waiver of any objection based on inappropriate venue or forum non conveniens in any federal court of the United States or (ii) imply that a federal court of the United States has subject matter jurisdiction.

The opinions expressed herein are limited to questions arising under the law of the State of New York and the federal law of the United States. We do not purport to be experts on the law of the Republic and, to the extent such law may be relevant to this opinion, we have with your permission, but without having made any independent investigation with respect thereto, reviewed the opinion delivered to you today by Philippi, Prietocarrizosa, Ferrero DU & Uría SpA, special Chilean counsel for the Underwriters, and the opinion of Morales & Besa Ltda., special Chilean counsel for the Republic, each dated the date hereof and furnished to you today in accordance with the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as your counsel in connection with the purchase by you from the Republic of Chile (the “Republic”) of US$[●] aggregate principal amount of its [●]% Notes due 20[●] (the “Notes”), pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement dated [●], 2020 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) among the Republic and each of you. This letter is furnished to you pursuant to Section 8(e)(i)(D) of the Underwriting Agreement.

In such capacity, we examined copies of the shelf registration statement on Schedule B (Registration No. 333-235463) initially filed by the Republic under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 12, 2019. As used herein, the term “Registration Statement” means such registration statement, including the information deemed to be a part thereof at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430B under the Securities Act, and the documents incorporated by reference therein; the term “Base Prospectus” means the base prospectus, dated [●], 2020, and forming a part of the Registration Statement with respect to the offering from time to time of the securities described therein; the term “Preliminary Prospectus” means the Base Prospectus, as amended and supplemented by the preliminary prospectus supplement relating to

 

D-2-1


the Notes, dated [●], 2020, in the form first filed by the Republic pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act with the Commission, including the documents incorporated by reference therein; the term “Prospectus” means the Base Prospectus, as amended and supplemented by the final prospectus supplement relating to the Notes, dated [●], 2020 (the “Final Prospectus Supplement”), in the form first filed by the Republic pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act with the Commission, including the documents incorporated by reference therein; the term “General Disclosure Package” means the Preliminary Prospectus, as amended and supplemented by the free writing prospectus of the Republic relating to the Notes, dated [●], 2020 in the form filed by the Republic as a free writing prospectus with the Commission; and the term “Applicable Time” means [●] p.m. New York time on [●], 2020.

We also reviewed and participated in discussions concerning the preparation of the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus with certain representatives of the Republic, with its counsel, and with your representatives and your Chilean counsel. The limitations inherent in the independent verification of factual matters and in the role of outside counsel are such, however, that we cannot and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of any of the statements made in the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, except as set forth in paragraph 4 of our opinion letter addressed to each of you, dated the date hereof.

Subject to the limitations set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph, we advise you that, on the basis of the information we gained in the course of performing the services referred to above, in our opinion, each of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (other than the financial statements and other financial or statistical data contained or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom, as to which we express no opinion) appears on its face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities Act and the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

We further advise you that, subject to the limitations set forth in the second preceding paragraph, on the basis of the information we gained in the course of performing the services referred to above, no facts came to our attention which caused us to believe that (i) the Registration Statement (other than the financial statements and other financial or statistical data contained or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom, as to which we have not been requested to comment), as of the date of the Underwriting Agreement, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) the General Disclosure Package (other than the financial statements and other financial or statistical data contained or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom, as to which we have not been requested to comment), as of the Applicable Time, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; or (iii) the Prospectus (other than the financial statements and other financial or statistical data contained or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom, as to which we have not been requested to comment), as of the date of the Final Prospectus Supplement or the date hereof, contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Interest shall accrue from and including the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from May 12, 2020 until payment of said principal sum has been made or duly provided for, and shall be payable to Holders of record as of January 30 and July 30 of each year (each a “Record Date”). This is a Global Security (as that term is defined in the Indenture referred to below), also referred to as a “Global Note” for purposes of this document, deposited with the Depositary, and registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee or common custodian, and accordingly, the Depositary or its nominee or common custodian, as Holder of record of this Global Note, shall be entitled to receive payments of principal and interest, other than principal and interest due at the maturity date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Such payment shall be made exclusively in such coin or currency of

The statements in the legend relating to the Depositary set forth above are an integral part of the terms of this Global Note and by acceptance hereof each Holder of this Global Note agrees to be subject to and bound by the terms and provisions set forth in such legend, if any.

This Global Note is issued in respect of an issue of US$1,458,000,000 principal amount of 2.450% Notes due 2031 of the Republic and is governed by (i) the Indenture dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”) between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) between the Republic and the Trustee, the terms of which Indenture are incorporated herein by reference, and (ii) by the Terms of the Debt Securities set forth in Exhibit C to the Indenture (the “Terms”), as supplemented or amended by the Authorization (as defined in the Indenture) of the Republic for this Global Note, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. This Global Note shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits as other Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture), under the Indenture and the Terms.

Upon any exchange of all or a portion of this Global Note for Certificated Notes in accordance with the Indenture, this Global Note shall be endorsed on Schedule A to reflect the change of the principal amount evidenced hereby.

REVERSE OF NOTES

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE NOTES

1.        General. (a) This Note is one of a duly authorized Series of debt securities of the Republic of Chile (the “Republic”), designated as its 2.450% Notes due 2031 (each Note of this Series a “Note,” and collectively, the “Notes”), and issued or to be issued in one or more Series pursuant to an Indenture dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) between the Republic and the Trustee. The Holders of the Notes will be entitled to the benefits of, be bound by, and be deemed to have notice of, all of the provisions of the Indenture. A copy of the Indenture is on file and may be inspected at the Corporate Trust Office. All capitalized terms used in this Note but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

(b)        The Notes constitute and will constitute direct, general, unconditional and unsubordinated External Debt of the Republic for which the full faith and credit of the Republic is pledged. The Notes rank and will rank without any preference among themselves and equally with all other unsubordinated External Debt of the Republic. It is understood that this provision shall not be construed so as to require the Republic to make payments under the Notes ratably with payments being made under any other External Debt.

(c)        The Notes are in fully registered form, without coupons in denominations of US$200,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof. The Notes may be issued in certificated form (the “Certificated Notes”), or may be represented by one or more registered global notes (each, a “Global Note”) held by or on behalf of the Depositary. Certificated Notes will be available only in the limited circumstances set forth in the Indenture. The Notes, and transfers thereof, shall be registered as provided in Section 2.6 of the Indenture. Any person in whose name a Note shall be registered may (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) be treated at all times, by all persons and for all purposes as the absolute owner of such Note regardless of any notice of ownership, theft, loss or any writing thereon.

(d)        For the purposes of this paragraph and paragraphs 5 and 6 below, the following terms shall have the meanings specified below:

External Debt” means obligations (other than the Notes) of, or guaranteed by, the Republic for borrowed money or evidenced by bonds, notes or other similar instruments denominated or payable, or those which at the option of the holder thereof are so denominated or payable, in a currency other than the local currency of the Republic.

Public External Debt” means any External Debt that is in the form of, or represented by, bonds, notes or other securities that are or may be quoted, listed or ordinarily purchased or sold on any stock exchange, automated trading system or over-the-counter or other securities market.

 

R-1


2.        Payments. (a) The Republic covenants and agrees that it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Amounts) on, the Notes and any other payments to be made by the Republic under the Notes and the Indenture, at the place or places, at the respective times and in the manner provided in the Notes and the Indenture. Principal of the Notes will be payable against surrender of such Notes at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in New York City or, subject to applicable laws and regulations, at the office outside of the United States of a paying agent, by U.S. dollar check drawn on, or by transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the Holder with, a bank located in New York City. Payment of interest or principal (including Additional Amounts (as defined below)) on the Notes will be made to the persons in whose name such Notes are registered at the close of business on the applicable Record Date, whether or not such day is a Business Day (as defined below), notwithstanding the cancellation of such Notes upon any transfer or exchange thereof subsequent to the Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date; provided that if and to the extent the Republic shall default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, such defaulted interest shall be paid to the persons in whose names such Notes are registered as of a subsequent record date established by the Republic by notice, as provided in paragraph 12 of these Terms, by or on behalf of the Republic to the Holders of the Notes not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date, such record date to be not less than 10 days preceding the date of payment of such defaulted interest. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, in the case where such interest or principal (including Additional Amounts as defined below) is not punctually paid or duly provided for, the Trustee shall have the right to fix such subsequent record date, and, if fixed by the Trustee, such subsequent record date shall supersede any such subsequent record date fixed by the Republic. Payment of interest on Certificated Notes will be made (i) by a U.S. dollar check drawn on a bank in New York City mailed to the Holder at such Holder’s registered address or (ii) upon application by the Holder of at least U.S.$1,000,000 in principal amount of Certificated Notes to the Trustee not later than the relevant Record Date, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the Holder with a bank in New York City. Payment of interest on a Global Note will be made (i) by a U.S. dollar check drawn on a bank in New York City delivered to the Depositary at its registered address or (ii) by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the Depositary with a bank in New York City. “Business Day” shall mean any day except a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which commercial banks in New York City (or in the city where the relevant paying or transfer agent is located) are required or authorized by law to close.

(b)        In any case where the date of payment of the principal of, or interest (including Additional Amounts) on, the Notes shall not be a Business Day, then payment of principal or interest (including Additional Amounts) will be made on the next succeeding Business Day at the relevant place of payment. Such payments will be deemed to have been made on the due date, and no interest on the Notes will accrue as a result of the delay in payment.

(c)        Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

 

R-2


(d)        Any monies deposited with or paid to the Trustee or to any paying agent for the payment of the principal of or interest (including Additional Amounts) on any Note and not applied but remaining unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such principal or interest shall have become due and payable shall be repaid to or for the account of the Republic by the Trustee or such paying agent, upon the written request of the Republic and, to the extent permitted by law, the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Republic for any payment which such Holder may be entitled to collect, and all liability of the Trustee or such paying agent with respect to such monies shall thereupon cease. The Republic shall cause all returned, unclaimed monies to be held in trust for the relevant Holder of the Note until such time as the claims against the Republic for payment of such amounts shall have prescribed pursuant to paragraph 14 of these Terms.

(e)        If the Republic at any time defaults in the payment of any principal of, or interest (including Additional Amounts) on the Notes, the Republic will pay interest on the amount in default (to the extent permitted by law), calculated for each day until paid, at the rate of 2.450% per annum, together with Additional Amounts, if applicable.

3.        Optional Redemption. At any time on or after October 31, 2030 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Notes), the Republic will have the right at its option, upon giving not less than 30 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice, to redeem the Notes prior to their maturity, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts, if any, on the principal amount of the Notes to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

4.        Additional Amounts. (a) All payments by the Republic in respect of the Notes shall be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Republic, or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency therein or thereof having the power to tax (collectively, “Relevant Tax”), unless the withholding or deduction of such Relevant Tax is required by law. In that event, the Republic shall pay such additional amounts, including but not limited to, the payment of the 4% withholding tax imposed on payments of interest to Holders of Notes that are not residents of the Republic (“Additional Amounts”), as may be necessary to ensure that the amounts received by the Holders after such withholding or deduction shall equal the respective amounts of principal and interest that would have been receivable in respect of the Notes in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable in respect of any Relevant Tax:

(i)        imposed by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note having some present or former connection with the Republic other than merely being a Holder or beneficial owner of the Note or receiving payments of any nature on the Note or enforcing its rights in respect of the Note;

 

R-3


(ii)        imposed by reason of the failure of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note, or any other person through which the Holder or beneficial owner holds a Note, to comply with any certification, identification or other reporting requirement concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Republic of such Holder or beneficial owner or other person, if compliance with the requirement is a precondition to exemption from all or any portion of such withholding or deduction; provided that (x) Chile or Chile’s agent has provided the Holders with at least 60 days’ prior written notice of an opportunity to satisfy such a requirement, and (y) in no event shall such Holder or beneficial owner or other person’s obligation to satisfy such a requirement require such Holder or beneficial owner or other person to provide any materially more onerous information, documents or other evidence than would be required to be provided had such Holder or beneficial owner or other person been required to file Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8EXP and/or W-8IMY; or

(iii)        imposed by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note, or any other person through which the Holder or beneficial owner holds a Note, having presented the Note for payment (where such presentation is required) more than 30 days after the Relevant Date, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner or such other person would have been entitled to Additional Amounts on presenting the Note for payment on any date during such 30-day period.

As used in this paragraph 4(a), “Relevant Date” in respect of any Note means the date on which payment in respect thereof first becomes due or, if the full amount of the money payable has not been received by the Trustee on or prior to such due date, the date on which notice is duly given to the Holders in the manner described in paragraph 12 below that such monies have been so received and are available for payment. Any reference to “principal” and/or “interest” hereunder shall be deemed to include any Additional Amounts which may be payable hereunder.

(b)        The Republic will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes or any excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise in the Republic or any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority thereof or therein in respect of the creation, issue, execution, initial delivery or registration of the Notes or any other document or instrument referred to therein. The Republic will also indemnify the Holders from and against any stamp, court or documentary taxes or any excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies resulting from, or required to be paid by any of them in any jurisdiction in connection with, the enforcement of the obligations of the Republic under the Notes or any other document or instrument referred to therein following the occurrence of any Event of Default (as defined below).

5.        Negative Pledge Covenant of the Republic. (a) So long as any Note shall remain Outstanding or any amount payable by the Republic under the Indenture shall remain unpaid, the Republic agrees that the Republic will not create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (as defined below) (other than a Permitted Lien (as defined below)) on the assets or revenues of the Republic to secure Public External Debt (as defined below), unless the Republic causes such Lien to equally and ratably secure the obligations of the Republic with respect to the Notes.

(b)        For purposes hereof:

 

R-4


Lien” means any lien, pledge, mortgage, security interest, deed of trust, charge or other encumbrance or preferential arrangement which has the practical effect of constituting a security interest with respect to the payment of any obligations with or from the proceeds of any asset or revenue of any kind whether in effect on the date the Indenture becomes effective or at any time thereafter.

Permitted Liens” means: (i) any Lien on property to secure Public External Debt arising in the ordinary course of business to finance export, import or other trade transactions, which Public External Debt matures (after giving effect to all renewals and refinancings thereof) not more than one year after the date on which the Public External Debt was originally incurred; (ii) any Lien on property to secure Public External Debt incurred for the purpose of financing the acquisition or construction by the Republic of such property, and any renewal or extension of any such Lien which is limited to the original property covered thereby and which secures any renewal or extension of the original financing without any increase in the amount thereof; (iii) any Lien on property arising by operation of any law in force as of May 5, 2020 in connection with Public External Debt, including without limitation any right of set-off with respect to demand or time deposits maintained with financial institutions and bankers’ liens with respect to property held by financial institutions, which in each case are deposited with or delivered to such financial institutions in the ordinary course of the depositor’s activities; (iv) any Lien existing on property at the time of acquisition and any renewal or extension of any such Lien which is limited to the original property covered thereby and which secures any renewal or extension of the original financing secured by such Lien at the time of such acquisition without increase in the amount of the original secured financing; (v) any Lien in existence as of December 12, 2014; and (vi) any Lien securing Public External Debt incurred for the purpose of financing all or part of the costs of the acquisition, construction or development of a project; provided that (A) the holders of such Public External Debt agree to limit their recourse to the assets and revenues of such project as the principal source of repayment of such Public External Debt and (B) the property over which such Lien is granted consists solely of such assets and revenues of the project.

6.        Events of Default; Acceleration. If one or more of the following events (“Events of Default”) shall have occurred and be continuing (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(a)    default in the payment of principal or of interest on any of the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, by declaration or otherwise, and continuance of such default for 30 days;

(b)    failure on the part of the Republic duly to observe or perform any of the covenants or obligations herein or in the Indenture for a period of 60 days after the date on which written notice thereof requiring the Republic to remedy the failure shall have been given to the Republic by the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding;

 

R-5


(c)        either (i) the Republic shall fail to make any payment of Public External Debt having an aggregate principal amount of not less than or equal to U.S.$20,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies) when and as the same shall become due and payable, if such failure shall continue beyond the period of grace, if any, originally applicable thereto or (ii) Public External Debt of the Republic having an aggregate principal amount greater than or equal to U.S.$ 20,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies) shall become due and payable due to acceleration upon an event of default and such acceleration shall not have been rescinded or annulled;

(d)        the Republic or a court of proper jurisdiction shall declare a general suspension of payments or a moratorium on payment of its Public External Debt; or

(e)        the validity of the Notes shall be contested in a formal administrative, legislative or judicial proceeding by the Republic or any legislative, executive, or judicial body or official of the Republic which is authorized in each case by law to do so and, acting alone or together with another such body or official, has the legal power and authority to declare the Notes invalid or unenforceable; then in each and every such case, upon notice in writing by the Holders (the “Demanding Holders”) (acting individually or together) of not less than 25% of the aggregate Outstanding principal amount of the Notes to the Republic, with a copy to the Trustee, of any such Event of Default and its continuance, the Demanding Holders may declare the principal amount of all the Notes due and payable immediately, and the same shall become and shall be due and payable upon the date that such written notice is received by or on behalf of the Republic, unless prior to such date all Events of Default in respect of all the Notes shall have been cured; provided that if, at any time after the principal of the Notes shall have been so declared due and payable, and before the sale of any property pursuant to any judgment or decree for the payment of monies due which shall have been obtained or entered in connection with the Notes, the Republic shall pay or shall deposit (or cause to be paid or deposited) with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and principal upon all the Notes which shall have become due otherwise than solely by acceleration (with interest on overdue installments of interest, to the extent permitted by law, and on such principal of each Note at the rate of interest specified herein, to the date of such payment of interest or principal) and such amount as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Demanding Holders, the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other documented expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred, and all advances made for documented expenses and legal fees, reasonably incurred by the Demanding Holders, the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and if any and all Events of Default hereunder, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Notes which shall have become due solely by acceleration, shall have been cured, waived or otherwise remedied as provided herein, then, and in every such case, the Holders of more than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding, by written notice to the Republic and to the Trustee, may, on behalf of all of the Holders, waive all defaults and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences, but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Actions by Holders pursuant to this paragraph 6 need not be taken at a meeting pursuant to paragraph 7 hereof. Actions by the Trustee and the Holders pursuant to this paragraph 6 are subject to Article IV of the Indenture.

In every case, the applicant for a substitute Note shall furnish to the Republic and to the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by each of them to indemnify, defend and to save each of them and any agent of the Republic or the Trustee harmless and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, or evidence to their satisfaction of the apparent destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof. Upon the issuance of any substitute Note, the Holder of such Note, if so requested by the Republic, shall pay a sum sufficient to cover any stamp duty, tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected with the preparation and issuance of the substitute Note.

Certificated Notes will only be issued in exchange for interests in a Global Note pursuant to Section 2.5(e) of the Indenture. The exchange of the Notes will be made by the Trustee.

(c)    Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, and subject to paragraph 8(e) hereof, a Certificated Note may be transferred in whole or in part (in an amount equal to the authorized denomination or any integral multiple thereof) by the Holder or Holders surrendering the Certificated Note for transfer at the Corporate Trust Office accompanied by an executed instrument of transfer substantially as set forth in Exhibit F to the Indenture. The registration of transfer of the Notes will be made by the Trustee.

(d)    The costs and expenses of effecting any exchange, transfer or registration of transfer pursuant to this paragraph 8 will be borne by the Republic, except for the expenses of delivery (if any) not made by regular mail and the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp duty, tax or other governmental charge or insurance charge that may be imposed in relation thereto, which will be borne by the Holder of the Note. Registration of the transfer of a Note by the Trustee shall be deemed to be the acknowledgment of such transfer on behalf of the Republic.

R-8


12.        Notices. The Republic will mail any notices to the Holders of the Notes at their registered addresses as reflected in the books and records of the Trustee. The Republic will consider any mailed notice to have been given five Business Days after it has been sent. The Republic will also publish notices to the Holders in a leading newspaper having general circulation in New York City and London (which is expected to be The Wall Street Journal and the Financial Times, respectively). The Republic will consider any published notice to be given on the date of its first publication.

13.        Further Issues of Notes. The Republic may from time to time, without the consent of Holders of the Notes, create and issue additional Notes having the same Terms as the Notes in all respects, except for the issue date, issue price and first payment on the Notes; provided, however, that any additional Notes subsequently issued that are not fungible with the previously Outstanding Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall have a separate CUSIP, ISIN or other identifying number from the previously Outstanding Notes. Additional Notes issued in this manner will be consolidated with and will form a single Series with the previously Outstanding Notes.

14.        Prescription. To the extent permitted by law, claims against the Republic for the payment of principal of, or interest or other amounts due on, the Notes (including Additional Amounts) will become void unless made within four years of the date on which that payment first became due.

15.        Authentication. This Note shall not become valid or obligatory until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been duly signed by the Trustee or its agent.

16.        Governing Law. (a) The Indenture will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. This Note will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

(b)        The Republic hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any New York State or U.S. federal court sitting in New York City in the Borough of Manhattan and any appellate court of either thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Indenture, and the Republic hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such legal action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York state or U.S. federal court. The Republic hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection to venue or defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such action or proceeding in such jurisdiction and any right of jurisdiction in such action or proceeding on account of the place of residence or domicile of the Republic.

(c)        The Republic hereby irrevocably appoints the Consul General of Chile in the City of New York, with an office on the date hereof at 600 Third Avenue #2808, New York, New York 10016, United States as its authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”) to receive on behalf of the Republic and its property service of copies of any summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any such legal action or proceeding, except actions arising out of United States federal or state securities laws, brought in such New York State or U.S. federal court sitting in New York City in the Borough of Manhattan. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to the Republic at the address specified above for the Process Agent.

 

R-9


(d)        Nothing in this paragraph 16 shall affect the right of the Trustee or (in connection with legal actions or proceedings by any Holder as permitted by the Indenture and this Note) any Holder to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of the Trustee or any such Holder to bring any action or proceeding against the Republic or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions.

(e)        To the extent that the Republic has or hereafter may acquire or have attributed to it any sovereign or other immunity under any law from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise, and attachments of revenues, assets and property of the Republic located in the Republic, to the extent permitted under laws of the Republic) with respect to any of its revenues, assets, or properties, the Republic hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under the Notes, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the Republic, in respect of its obligations under the Indenture. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Republic agrees that the waivers set forth in this paragraph 16(e) shall be to the fullest extent permitted under the U.S. Foreign Republic Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States (the “Immunities Act”) and are intended to be irrevocable for purposes of such Act. The Republic reserves the right to plead sovereign immunity under the Immunities Act with respect to actions brought against it under U.S. federal securities laws or any state securities laws, and the Republic’s appointment of the Process Agent will not extend to such actions.

(f)        The Republic hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any requirement or other provision of law, rule, regulation or practice which requires or otherwise establishes as a condition to the institution, prosecution or completion of any action or proceeding (including appeals) arising out of or relating to the Notes the posting of any bond or the furnishing, directly or indirectly, of any other security.

17.        Indemnification for Foreign Exchange Fluctuations. The obligation of Republic to any Holder under the Notes that has obtained a court judgment affecting the Notes shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which the Note is denominated (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder of any amount in the Judgment Currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that day, on the first Business Day on which it is practicable to do so). If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder in the Agreement Currency, the Republic agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding such judgment, to pay the difference, and if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased exceeds the amount originally to be paid to such Holder, such Holder agrees to pay to or for the account of the Republic such excess, provided that such Holder shall not have any obligation to pay any such excess as long as a default by the Republic in its obligations hereunder has occurred and is continuing, in which case such excess may be applied by such Holder to such obligations.

 

R-10


18.        Warranty of the Republic. Subject to paragraph 15, the Republic hereby certifies and warrants that all acts, conditions and things required to be done and performed and to have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note and to constitute the same legal, valid and binding obligations of Republic enforceable in accordance with their terms, have been done and performed and have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.

19.        Definitive Headings. The descriptive headings appearing in these Terms are for convenience of reference only and shall not alter, limit or define the provisions hereof.

20.        Modifications. (a) Any Modification to the Notes or the Indenture insofar as it affects the Notes shall be made in accordance with Article Ten and Article Eleven of the Indenture.

(b)        Any Modification pursuant to this paragraph 20 will be conclusive and binding on all Holders of the Notes, and on all future Holders of the Notes whether or not notation of such Modification is made upon the Notes. Any instrument given by or on behalf of any Holder of a Note in connection with any consent to or approval of any such Modification will be conclusive and binding on all subsequent Holders of that Note.

The Republic of Chile (the “Republic”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, upon surrender hereof of the principal sum of FIVE HUNDRED MILLION UNITED STATES DOLLARS (US$500,000,000) or such amount as shall be the outstanding principal amount hereof on January 31, 2031, together with interest accrued from May 12, 2020 to, but excluding, the maturity date, or on such earlier date as the principal hereof may become due in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Republic further unconditionally promises to pay interest semi-annually (except for first interest payment) in arrears on January 31 and July 31 (each an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing January 31, 2021, on any outstanding portion of the unpaid principal amount hereof at 2.450% per annum. Interest shall accrue from and including the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from May 12, 2020 until payment of said principal sum has been made or duly provided for, and shall be payable to Holders of record as of January 30 and July 30 of each year (each a “Record Date”). This is a Global Security (as that term is defined in the Indenture referred to below), also referred to as a “Global Note” for purposes of this document, deposited with the Depositary, and registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee or common custodian, and accordingly, the Depositary or its nominee or common custodian, as Holder of record of this Global Note, shall be entitled to receive payments of principal and interest, other than principal and interest due at the maturity date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Such payment shall be made exclusively in such coin or currency of


the United States as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for payment of public and private debts. The Republic, the Trustee, any registrar and any paying agent shall be entitled to treat the Depositary as the sole Holder of this Global Note.

The statements in the legend relating to the Depositary set forth above are an integral part of the terms of this Global Note and by acceptance hereof each Holder of this Global Note agrees to be subject to and bound by the terms and provisions set forth in such legend, if any.

This Global Note is issued in respect of an issue of US$1,458,000,000 principal amount of 2.450% Notes due 2031 of the Republic and is governed by (i) the Indenture dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”) between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) between the Republic and the Trustee, the terms of which Indenture are incorporated herein by reference, and (ii) by the Terms of the Debt Securities set forth in Exhibit C to the Indenture (the “Terms”), as supplemented or amended by the Authorization (as defined in the Indenture) of the Republic for this Global Note, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. This Global Note shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits as other Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture), under the Indenture and the Terms.

Upon any exchange of all or a portion of this Global Note for Certificated Notes in accordance with the Indenture, this Global Note shall be endorsed on Schedule A to reflect the change of the principal amount evidenced hereby.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee, this Global Note shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE NOTES

1.        General. (a) This Note is one of a duly authorized Series of debt securities of the Republic of Chile (the “Republic”), designated as its 2.450% Notes due 2031 (each Note of this Series a “Note,” and collectively, the “Notes”), and issued or to be issued in one or more Series pursuant to an Indenture dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) between the Republic and the Trustee. The Holders of the Notes will be entitled to the benefits of, be bound by, and be deemed to have notice of, all of the provisions of the Indenture. A copy of the Indenture is on file and may be inspected at the Corporate Trust Office. All capitalized terms used in this Note but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

(b)        The Notes constitute and will constitute direct, general, unconditional and unsubordinated External Debt of the Republic for which the full faith and credit of the Republic is pledged. The Notes rank and will rank without any preference among themselves and equally with all other unsubordinated External Debt of the Republic. It is understood that this provision shall not be construed so as to require the Republic to make payments under the Notes ratably with payments being made under any other External Debt.

(c)        The Notes are in fully registered form, without coupons in denominations of US$200,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof. The Notes may be issued in certificated form (the “Certificated Notes”), or may be represented by one or more registered global notes (each, a “Global Note”) held by or on behalf of the Depositary. Certificated Notes will be available only in the limited circumstances set forth in the Indenture. The Notes, and transfers thereof, shall be registered as provided in Section 2.6 of the Indenture. Any person in whose name a Note shall be registered may (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) be treated at all times, by all persons and for all purposes as the absolute owner of such Note regardless of any notice of ownership, theft, loss or any writing thereon.

(d)        For the purposes of this paragraph and paragraphs 5 and 6 below, the following terms shall have the meanings specified below:

External Debt” means obligations (other than the Notes) of, or guaranteed by, the Republic for borrowed money or evidenced by bonds, notes or other similar instruments denominated or payable, or those which at the option of the holder thereof are so denominated or payable, in a currency other than the local currency of the Republic.

2.        Payments. (a) The Republic covenants and agrees that it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Amounts) on, the Notes and any other payments to be made by the Republic under the Notes and the Indenture, at the place or places, at the respective times and in the manner provided in the Notes and the Indenture. Principal of the Notes will be payable against surrender of such Notes at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in New York City or, subject to applicable laws and regulations, at the office outside of the United States of a paying agent, by U.S. dollar check drawn on, or by transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the Holder with, a bank located in New York City. Payment of interest or principal (including Additional Amounts (as defined below)) on the Notes will be made to the persons in whose name such Notes are registered at the close of business on the applicable Record Date, whether or not such day is a Business Day (as defined below), notwithstanding the cancellation of such Notes upon any transfer or exchange thereof subsequent to the Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date; provided that if and to the extent the Republic shall default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, such defaulted interest shall be paid to the persons in whose names such Notes are registered as of a subsequent record date established by the Republic by notice, as provided in paragraph 12 of these Terms, by or on behalf of the Republic to the Holders of the Notes not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date, such record date to be not less than 10 days preceding the date of payment of such defaulted interest. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, in the case where such interest or principal (including Additional Amounts as defined below) is not punctually paid or duly provided for, the Trustee shall have the right to fix such subsequent record date, and, if fixed by the Trustee, such subsequent record date shall supersede any such subsequent record date fixed by the Republic. Payment of interest on Certificated Notes will be made (i) by a U.S. dollar check drawn on a bank in New York City mailed to the Holder at such Holder’s registered address or (ii) upon application by the Holder of at least U.S.$1,000,000 in principal amount of Certificated Notes to the Trustee not later than the relevant Record Date, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the Holder with a bank in New York City. Payment of interest on a Global Note will be made (i) by a U.S. dollar check drawn on a bank in New York City delivered to the Depositary at its registered address or (ii) by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the Depositary with a bank in New York City. “Business Day” shall mean any day except a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which commercial banks in New York City (or in the city where the relevant paying or transfer agent is located) are required or authorized by law to close.

(b)        In any case where the date of payment of the principal of, or interest (including Additional Amounts) on, the Notes shall not be a Business Day, then payment of principal or interest (including Additional Amounts) will be made on the next succeeding Business Day at the relevant place of payment. Such payments will be deemed to have been made on the due date, and no interest on the Notes will accrue as a result of the delay in payment.

(c)        Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

 

R-2


(d)        Any monies deposited with or paid to the Trustee or to any paying agent for the payment of the principal of or interest (including Additional Amounts) on any Note and not applied but remaining unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such principal or interest shall have become due and payable shall be repaid to or for the account of the Republic by the Trustee or such paying agent, upon the written request of the Republic and, to the extent permitted by law, the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Republic for any payment which such Holder may be entitled to collect, and all liability of the Trustee or such paying agent with respect to such monies shall thereupon cease. The Republic shall cause all returned, unclaimed monies to be held in trust for the relevant Holder of the Note until such time as the claims against the Republic for payment of such amounts shall have prescribed pursuant to paragraph 14 of these Terms.

(e)        If the Republic at any time defaults in the payment of any principal of, or interest (including Additional Amounts) on the Notes, the Republic will pay interest on the amount in default (to the extent permitted by law), calculated for each day until paid, at the rate of 2.450% per annum, together with Additional Amounts, if applicable.

3.        Optional Redemption. At any time on or after October 31, 2030 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Notes), the Republic will have the right at its option, upon giving not less than 30 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice, to redeem the Notes prior to their maturity, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts, if any, on the principal amount of the Notes to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

4.        Additional Amounts. (a) All payments by the Republic in respect of the Notes shall be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Republic, or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency therein or thereof having the power to tax (collectively, “Relevant Tax”), unless the withholding or deduction of such Relevant Tax is required by law. In that event, the Republic shall pay such additional amounts, including but not limited to, the payment of the 4% withholding tax imposed on payments of interest to Holders of Notes that are not residents of the Republic (“Additional Amounts”), as may be necessary to ensure that the amounts received by the Holders after such withholding or deduction shall equal the respective amounts of principal and interest that would have been receivable in respect of the Notes in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable in respect of any Relevant Tax:

(i)        imposed by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note having some present or former connection with the Republic other than merely being a Holder or beneficial owner of the Note or receiving payments of any nature on the Note or enforcing its rights in respect of the Note;

 

R-3


(ii)        imposed by reason of the failure of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note, or any other person through which the Holder or beneficial owner holds a Note, to comply with any certification, identification or other reporting requirement concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Republic of such Holder or beneficial owner or other person, if compliance with the requirement is a precondition to exemption from all or any portion of such withholding or deduction; provided that (x) Chile or Chile’s agent has provided the Holders with at least 60 days’ prior written notice of an opportunity to satisfy such a requirement, and (y) in no event shall such Holder or beneficial owner or other person’s obligation to satisfy such a requirement require such Holder or beneficial owner or other person to provide any materially more onerous information, documents or other evidence than would be required to be provided had such Holder or beneficial owner or other person been required to file Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8EXP and/or W-8IMY; or

(iii)        imposed by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note, or any other person through which the Holder or beneficial owner holds a Note, having presented the Note for payment (where such presentation is required) more than 30 days after the Relevant Date, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner or such other person would have been entitled to Additional Amounts on presenting the Note for payment on any date during such 30-day period.

As used in this paragraph 4(a), “Relevant Date” in respect of any Note means the date on which payment in respect thereof first becomes due or, if the full amount of the money payable has not been received by the Trustee on or prior to such due date, the date on which notice is duly given to the Holders in the manner described in paragraph 12 below that such monies have been so received and are available for payment. Any reference to “principal” and/or “interest” hereunder shall be deemed to include any Additional Amounts which may be payable hereunder.

(b)        The Republic will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes or any excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise in the Republic or any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority thereof or therein in respect of the creation, issue, execution, initial delivery or registration of the Notes or any other document or instrument referred to therein. The Republic will also indemnify the Holders from and against any stamp, court or documentary taxes or any excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies resulting from, or required to be paid by any of them in any jurisdiction in connection with, the enforcement of the obligations of the Republic under the Notes or any other document or instrument referred to therein following the occurrence of any Event of Default (as defined below).

5.        Negative Pledge Covenant of the Republic. (a) So long as any Note shall remain Outstanding or any amount payable by the Republic under the Indenture shall remain unpaid, the Republic agrees that the Republic will not create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (as defined below) (other than a Permitted Lien (as defined below)) on the assets or revenues of the Republic to secure Public External Debt (as defined below), unless the Republic causes such Lien to equally and ratably secure the obligations of the Republic with respect to the Notes.

(b)        For purposes hereof:

R-8


12.        Notices. The Republic will mail any notices to the Holders of the Notes at their registered addresses as reflected in the books and records of the Trustee.

The Republic will consider any published notice to be given on the date of its first publication.

13.        Further Issues of Notes. The Republic may from time to time, without the consent of Holders of the Notes, create and issue additional Notes having the same Terms as the Notes in all respects, except for the issue date, issue price and first payment on the Notes; provided, however, that any additional Notes subsequently issued that are not fungible with the previously Outstanding Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall have a separate CUSIP, ISIN or other identifying number from the previously Outstanding Notes. Additional Notes issued in this manner will be consolidated with and will form a single Series with the previously Outstanding Notes.

16.        Governing Law. (a) The Indenture will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. This Note will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

(b)        The Republic hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any New York State or U.S. federal court sitting in New York City in the Borough of Manhattan and any appellate court of either thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Indenture, and the Republic hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such legal action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York state or U.S. federal court. The Republic hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection to venue or defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such action or proceeding in such jurisdiction and any right of jurisdiction in such action or proceeding on account of the place of residence or domicile of the Republic.

(c)        The Republic hereby irrevocably appoints the Consul General of Chile in the City of New York, with an office on the date hereof at 600 Third Avenue #2808, New York, New York 10016, United States as its authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”) to receive on behalf of the Republic and its property service of copies of any summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any such legal action or proceeding, except actions arising out of United States federal or state securities laws, brought in such New York State or U.S. federal court sitting in New York City in the Borough of Manhattan. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to the Republic at the address specified above for the Process Agent.

 

R-9


(d)        Nothing in this paragraph 16 shall affect the right of the Trustee or (in connection with legal actions or proceedings by any Holder as permitted by the Indenture and this Note) any Holder to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of the Trustee or any such Holder to bring any action or proceeding against the Republic or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions.

(e)        To the extent that the Republic has or hereafter may acquire or have attributed to it any sovereign or other immunity under any law from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise, and attachments of revenues, assets and property of the Republic located in the Republic, to the extent permitted under laws of the Republic) with respect to any of its revenues, assets, or properties, the Republic hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under the Notes, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the Republic, in respect of its obligations under the Indenture. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Republic agrees that the waivers set forth in this paragraph 16(e) shall be to the fullest extent permitted under the U.S. Foreign Republic Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States (the “Immunities Act”) and are intended to be irrevocable for purposes of such Act. The Republic reserves the right to plead sovereign immunity under the Immunities Act with respect to actions brought against it under U.S. federal securities laws or any state securities laws, and the Republic’s appointment of the Process Agent will not extend to such actions.

(f)        The Republic hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any requirement or other provision of law, rule, regulation or practice which requires or otherwise establishes as a condition to the institution, prosecution or completion of any action or proceeding (including appeals) arising out of or relating to the Notes the posting of any bond or the furnishing, directly or indirectly, of any other security.

17.        Indemnification for Foreign Exchange Fluctuations. The obligation of Republic to any Holder under the Notes that has obtained a court judgment affecting the Notes shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which the Note is denominated (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder of any amount in the Judgment Currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that day, on the first Business Day on which it is practicable to do so). If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder in the Agreement Currency, the Republic agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding such judgment, to pay the difference, and if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased exceeds the amount originally to be paid to such Holder, such Holder agrees to pay to or for the account of the Republic such excess, provided that such Holder shall not have any obligation to pay any such excess as long as a default by the Republic in its obligations hereunder has occurred and is continuing, in which case such excess may be applied by such Holder to such obligations.

 

R-10


18.        Warranty of the Republic. Subject to paragraph 15, the Republic hereby certifies and warrants that all acts, conditions and things required to be done and performed and to have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note and to constitute the same legal, valid and binding obligations of Republic enforceable in accordance with their terms, have been done and performed and have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.

19.        Definitive Headings. The descriptive headings appearing in these Terms are for convenience of reference only and shall not alter, limit or define the provisions hereof.

20.        Modifications. (a) Any Modification to the Notes or the Indenture insofar as it affects the Notes shall be made in accordance with Article Ten and Article Eleven of the Indenture.

(b)        Any Modification pursuant to this paragraph 20 will be conclusive and binding on all Holders of the Notes, and on all future Holders of the Notes whether or not notation of such Modification is made upon the Notes. Any instrument given by or on behalf of any Holder of a Note in connection with any consent to or approval of any such Modification will be conclusive and binding on all subsequent Holders of that Note.

The Republic further unconditionally promises to pay interest semi-annually (except for first interest payment) in arrears on January 31 and July 31 (each an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing January 31, 2021, on any outstanding portion of the unpaid principal amount hereof at 2.450% per annum. Interest shall accrue from and including the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from May 12, 2020 until payment of said principal sum has been made or duly provided for, and shall be payable to Holders of record as of January 30 and July 30 of each year (each a “Record Date”). This is a Global Security (as that term is defined in the Indenture referred to below), also referred to as a “Global Note” for purposes of this document, deposited with the Depositary, and registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee or common custodian, and accordingly, the Depositary or its nominee or common custodian, as Holder of record of this Global Note, shall be entitled to receive payments of principal and interest, other than principal and interest due at the maturity date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds. Such payment shall be made exclusively in such coin or currency of


the United States as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for payment of public and private debts. The Republic, the Trustee, any registrar and any paying agent shall be entitled to treat the Depositary as the sole Holder of this Global Note.

The statements in the legend relating to the Depositary set forth above are an integral part of the terms of this Global Note and by acceptance hereof each Holder of this Global Note agrees to be subject to and bound by the terms and provisions set forth in such legend, if any.

This Global Note is issued in respect of an issue of US$1,458,000,000 principal amount of 2.450% Notes due 2031 of the Republic and is governed by (i) the Indenture dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”) between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) between the Republic and the Trustee, the terms of which Indenture are incorporated herein by reference, and (ii) by the Terms of the Debt Securities set forth in Exhibit C to the Indenture (the “Terms”), as supplemented or amended by the Authorization (as defined in the Indenture) of the Republic for this Global Note, the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference. This Global Note shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits as other Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture), under the Indenture and the Terms.

Upon any exchange of all or a portion of this Global Note for Certificated Notes in accordance with the Indenture, this Global Note shall be endorsed on Schedule A to reflect the change of the principal amount evidenced hereby.

The Holders of the Notes will be entitled to the benefits of, be bound by, and be deemed to have notice of, all of the provisions of the Indenture. A copy of the Indenture is on file and may be inspected at the Corporate Trust Office. All capitalized terms used in this Note but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

(b)        The Notes constitute and will constitute direct, general, unconditional and unsubordinated External Debt of the Republic for which the full faith and credit of the Republic is pledged. The Notes rank and will rank without any preference among themselves and equally with all other unsubordinated External Debt of the Republic. It is understood that this provision shall not be construed so as to require the Republic to make payments under the Notes ratably with payments being made under any other External Debt.

(c)        The Notes are in fully registered form, without coupons in denominations of US$200,000 and integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof. The Notes may be issued in certificated form (the “Certificated Notes”), or may be represented by one or more registered global notes (each, a “Global Note”) held by or on behalf of the Depositary. Certificated Notes will be available only in the limited circumstances set forth in the Indenture. The Notes, and transfers thereof, shall be registered as provided in Section 2.6 of the Indenture. Any person in whose name a Note shall be registered may (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) be treated at all times, by all persons and for all purposes as the absolute owner of such Note regardless of any notice of ownership, theft, loss or any writing thereon.

(d)        For the purposes of this paragraph and paragraphs 5 and 6 below, the following terms shall have the meanings specified below:

External Debt” means obligations (other than the Notes) of, or guaranteed by, the Republic for borrowed money or evidenced by bonds, notes or other similar instruments denominated or payable, or those which at the option of the holder thereof are so denominated or payable, in a currency other than the local currency of the Republic.

2.        Payments. (a) The Republic covenants and agrees that it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Amounts) on, the Notes and any other payments to be made by the Republic under the Notes and the Indenture, at the place or places, at the respective times and in the manner provided in the Notes and the Indenture. Principal of the Notes will be payable against surrender of such Notes at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in New York City or, subject to applicable laws and regulations, at the office outside of the United States of a paying agent, by U.S. dollar check drawn on, or by transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the Holder with, a bank located in New York City. Payment of interest or principal (including Additional Amounts (as defined below)) on the Notes will be made to the persons in whose name such Notes are registered at the close of business on the applicable Record Date, whether or not such day is a Business Day (as defined below), notwithstanding the cancellation of such Notes upon any transfer or exchange thereof subsequent to the Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date; provided that if and to the extent the Republic shall default in the payment of the interest due on such Interest Payment Date, such defaulted interest shall be paid to the persons in whose names such Notes are registered as of a subsequent record date established by the Republic by notice, as provided in paragraph 12 of these Terms, by or on behalf of the Republic to the Holders of the Notes not less than 15 days preceding such subsequent record date, such record date to be not less than 10 days preceding the date of payment of such defaulted interest. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, in the case where such interest or principal (including Additional Amounts as defined below) is not punctually paid or duly provided for, the Trustee shall have the right to fix such subsequent record date, and, if fixed by the Trustee, such subsequent record date shall supersede any such subsequent record date fixed by the Republic. Payment of interest on Certificated Notes will be made (i) by a U.S. dollar check drawn on a bank in New York City mailed to the Holder at such Holder’s registered address or (ii) upon application by the Holder of at least U.S.$1,000,000 in principal amount of Certificated Notes to the Trustee not later than the relevant Record Date, by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the Holder with a bank in New York City. Payment of interest on a Global Note will be made (i) by a U.S. dollar check drawn on a bank in New York City delivered to the Depositary at its registered address or (ii) by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the Depositary with a bank in New York City. “Business Day” shall mean any day except a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which commercial banks in New York City (or in the city where the relevant paying or transfer agent is located) are required or authorized by law to close.

(b)        In any case where the date of payment of the principal of, or interest (including Additional Amounts) on, the Notes shall not be a Business Day, then payment of principal or interest (including Additional Amounts) will be made on the next succeeding Business Day at the relevant place of payment. Such payments will be deemed to have been made on the due date, and no interest on the Notes will accrue as a result of the delay in payment.

(c)        Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

(d)        Any monies deposited with or paid to the Trustee or to any paying agent for the payment of the principal of or interest (including Additional Amounts) on any Note and not applied but remaining unclaimed for two years after the date upon which such principal or interest shall have become due and payable shall be repaid to or for the account of the Republic by the Trustee or such paying agent, upon the written request of the Republic and, to the extent permitted by law, the Holder of such Note shall thereafter look only to the Republic for any payment which such Holder may be entitled to collect, and all liability of the Trustee or such paying agent with respect to such monies shall thereupon cease. The Republic shall cause all returned, unclaimed monies to be held in trust for the relevant Holder of the Note until such time as the claims against the Republic for payment of such amounts shall have prescribed pursuant to paragraph 14 of these Terms.

(e)        If the Republic at any time defaults in the payment of any principal of, or interest (including Additional Amounts) on the Notes, the Republic will pay interest on the amount in default (to the extent permitted by law), calculated for each day until paid, at the rate of 2.450% per annum, together with Additional Amounts, if applicable.

3.        Optional Redemption. At any time on or after October 31, 2030 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Notes), the Republic will have the right at its option, upon giving not less than 30 days’ nor more than 60 days’ notice, to redeem the Notes prior to their maturity, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts, if any, on the principal amount of the Notes to, but excluding, the date of redemption.

4.        Additional Amounts. (a) All payments by the Republic in respect of the Notes shall be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of the Republic, or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency therein or thereof having the power to tax (collectively, “Relevant Tax”), unless the withholding or deduction of such Relevant Tax is required by law. In that event, the Republic shall pay such additional amounts, including but not limited to, the payment of the 4% withholding tax imposed on payments of interest to Holders of Notes that are not residents of the Republic (“Additional Amounts”), as may be necessary to ensure that the amounts received by the Holders after such withholding or deduction shall equal the respective amounts of principal and interest that would have been receivable in respect of the Notes in the absence of such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable in respect of any Relevant Tax:

(i)        imposed by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note having some present or former connection with the Republic other than merely being a Holder or beneficial owner of the Note or receiving payments of any nature on the Note or enforcing its rights in respect of the Note;

 

R-3


(ii)        imposed by reason of the failure of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note, or any other person through which the Holder or beneficial owner holds a Note, to comply with any certification, identification or other reporting requirement concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the Republic of such Holder or beneficial owner or other person, if compliance with the requirement is a precondition to exemption from all or any portion of such withholding or deduction; provided that (x) Chile or Chile’s agent has provided the Holders with at least 60 days’ prior written notice of an opportunity to satisfy such a requirement, and (y) in no event shall such Holder or beneficial owner or other person’s obligation to satisfy such a requirement require such Holder or beneficial owner or other person to provide any materially more onerous information, documents or other evidence than would be required to be provided had such Holder or beneficial owner or other person been required to file Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI, W-8EXP and/or W-8IMY; or

(iii)        imposed by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of a Note, or any other person through which the Holder or beneficial owner holds a Note, having presented the Note for payment (where such presentation is required) more than 30 days after the Relevant Date, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner or such other person would have been entitled to Additional Amounts on presenting the Note for payment on any date during such 30-day period.

As used in this paragraph 4(a), “Relevant Date” in respect of any Note means the date on which payment in respect thereof first becomes due or, if the full amount of the money payable has not been received by the Trustee on or prior to such due date, the date on which notice is duly given to the Holders in the manner described in paragraph 12 below that such monies have been so received and are available for payment. Any reference to “principal” and/or “interest” hereunder shall be deemed to include any Additional Amounts which may be payable hereunder.

(b)        The Republic will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes or any excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise in the Republic or any political subdivision thereof or taxing authority thereof or therein in respect of the creation, issue, execution, initial delivery or registration of the Notes or any other document or instrument referred to therein. The Republic will also indemnify the Holders from and against any stamp, court or documentary taxes or any excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies resulting from, or required to be paid by any of them in any jurisdiction in connection with, the enforcement of the obligations of the Republic under the Notes or any other document or instrument referred to therein following the occurrence of any Event of Default (as defined below).

5.        Negative Pledge Covenant of the Republic. (a) So long as any Note shall remain Outstanding or any amount payable by the Republic under the Indenture shall remain unpaid, the Republic agrees that the Republic will not create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien (as defined below) (other than a Permitted Lien (as defined below)) on the assets or revenues of the Republic to secure Public External Debt (as defined below), unless the Republic causes such Lien to equally and ratably secure the obligations of the Republic with respect to the Notes.

(b)        For purposes hereof:

 

R-4


Lien” means any lien, pledge, mortgage, security interest, deed of trust, charge or other encumbrance or preferential arrangement which has the practical effect of constituting a security interest with respect to the payment of any obligations with or from the proceeds of any asset or revenue of any kind whether in effect on the date the Indenture becomes effective or at any time thereafter.

Permitted Liens” means: (i) any Lien on property to secure Public External Debt arising in the ordinary course of business to finance export, import or other trade transactions, which Public External Debt matures (after giving effect to all renewals and refinancings thereof) not more than one year after the date on which the Public External Debt was originally incurred; (ii) any Lien on property to secure Public External Debt incurred for the purpose of financing the acquisition or construction by the Republic of such property, and any renewal or extension of any such Lien which is limited to the original property covered thereby and which secures any renewal or extension of the original financing without any increase in the amount thereof; (iii) any Lien on property arising by operation of any law in force as of May 5, 2020 in connection with Public External Debt, including without limitation any right of set-off with respect to demand or time deposits maintained with financial institutions and bankers’ liens with respect to property held by financial institutions, which in each case are deposited with or delivered to such financial institutions in the ordinary course of the depositor’s activities; (iv) any Lien existing on property at the time of acquisition and any renewal or extension of any such Lien which is limited to the original property covered thereby and which secures any renewal or extension of the original financing secured by such Lien at the time of such acquisition without increase in the amount of the original secured financing; (v) any Lien in existence as of December 12, 2014; and (vi) any Lien securing Public External Debt incurred for the purpose of financing all or part of the costs of the acquisition, construction or development of a project; provided that (A) the holders of such Public External Debt agree to limit their recourse to the assets and revenues of such project as the principal source of repayment of such Public External Debt and (B) the property over which such Lien is granted consists solely of such assets and revenues of the project.

6.        Events of Default; Acceleration. If one or more of the following events (“Events of Default”) shall have occurred and be continuing (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(a)    default in the payment of principal or of interest on any of the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, by declaration or otherwise, and continuance of such default for 30 days;

(b)    failure on the part of the Republic duly to observe or perform any of the covenants or obligations herein or in the Indenture for a period of 60 days after the date on which written notice thereof requiring the Republic to remedy the failure shall have been given to the Republic by the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding;

 

R-5


(c)        either (i) the Republic shall fail to make any payment of Public External Debt having an aggregate principal amount of not less than or equal to U.S.$20,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies) when and as the same shall become due and payable, if such failure shall continue beyond the period of grace, if any, originally applicable thereto or (ii) Public External Debt of the Republic having an aggregate principal amount greater than or equal to U.S.$ 20,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies) shall become due and payable due to acceleration upon an event of default and such acceleration shall not have been rescinded or annulled;

(d)        the Republic or a court of proper jurisdiction shall declare a general suspension of payments or a moratorium on payment of its Public External Debt; or

(e)        the validity of the Notes shall be contested in a formal administrative, legislative or judicial proceeding by the Republic or any legislative, executive, or judicial body or official of the Republic which is authorized in each case by law to do so and, acting alone or together with another such body or official, has the legal power and authority to declare the Notes invalid or unenforceable; then in each and every such case, upon notice in writing by the Holders (the “Demanding Holders”) (acting individually or together) of not less than 25% of the aggregate Outstanding principal amount of the Notes to the Republic, with a copy to the Trustee, of any such Event of Default and its continuance, the Demanding Holders may declare the principal amount of all the Notes due and payable immediately, and the same shall become and shall be due and payable upon the date that such written notice is received by or on behalf of the Republic, unless prior to such date all Events of Default in respect of all the Notes shall have been cured; provided that if, at any time after the principal of the Notes shall have been so declared due and payable, and before the sale of any property pursuant to any judgment or decree for the payment of monies due which shall have been obtained or entered in connection with the Notes, the Republic shall pay or shall deposit (or cause to be paid or deposited) with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and principal upon all the Notes which shall have become due otherwise than solely by acceleration (with interest on overdue installments of interest, to the extent permitted by law, and on such principal of each Note at the rate of interest specified herein, to the date of such payment of interest or principal) and such amount as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Demanding Holders, the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other documented expenses and liabilities reasonably incurred, and all advances made for documented expenses and legal fees, reasonably incurred by the Demanding Holders, the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and if any and all Events of Default hereunder, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Notes which shall have become due solely by acceleration, shall have been cured, waived or otherwise remedied as provided herein, then, and in every such case, the Holders of more than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding, by written notice to the Republic and to the Trustee, may, on behalf of all of the Holders, waive all defaults and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences, but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Actions by Holders pursuant to this paragraph 6 need not be taken at a meeting pursuant to paragraph 7 hereof. Actions by the Trustee and the Holders pursuant to this paragraph 6 are subject to Article IV of the Indenture.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, in case any Note shall become mutilated, defaced or be apparently destroyed, lost or stolen, the Republic in its discretion may execute, and upon the request of the Republic, the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Note bearing a number not contemporaneously Outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated or defaced Note, or in lieu of and in substitution for the apparently destroyed, lost or stolen Note. In every case, the applicant for a substitute Note shall furnish to the Republic and to the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by each of them to indemnify, defend and to save each of them and any agent of the Republic or the Trustee harmless and, in every case of destruction, loss or theft, or evidence to their satisfaction of the apparent destruction, loss or theft of such Note and of the ownership thereof. Upon the issuance of any substitute Note, the Holder of such Note, if so requested by the Republic, shall pay a sum sufficient to cover any stamp duty, tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected with the preparation and issuance of the substitute Note.

(b)    Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, and subject to paragraph 8(e) hereof, a Certificated Note or Notes may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of Certificated Notes in different authorized denominations and a beneficial interest in the Global Note may be exchanged for Certificated Notes in authorized denominations or for a beneficial interest in another Global Note by the Holder or Holders surrendering the Note or Notes for exchange at the Corporate Trust Office, together with a written request for the exchange. Certificated Notes will only be issued in exchange for interests in a Global Note pursuant to Section 2.5(e) of the Indenture. The exchange of the Notes will be made by the Trustee.

(c)    Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Indenture, and subject to paragraph 8(e) hereof, a Certificated Note may be transferred in whole or in part (in an amount equal to the authorized denomination or any integral multiple thereof) by the Holder or Holders surrendering the Certificated Note for transfer at the Corporate Trust Office accompanied by an executed instrument of transfer substantially as set forth in Exhibit F to the Indenture. The registration of transfer of the Notes will be made by the Trustee.

(d)    The costs and expenses of effecting any exchange, transfer or registration of transfer pursuant to this paragraph 8 will be borne by the Republic, except for the expenses of delivery (if any) not made by regular mail and the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any stamp duty, tax or other governmental charge or insurance charge that may be imposed in relation thereto, which will be borne by the Holder of the Note. Registration of the transfer of a Note by the Trustee shall be deemed to be the acknowledgment of such transfer on behalf of the Republic.

 

R-7

For the protection and enforcement of this paragraph, each and every Holder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

 

R-8


12.        Notices. The Republic will mail any notices to the Holders of the Notes at their registered addresses as reflected in the books and records of the Trustee. The Republic will consider any mailed notice to have been given five Business Days after it has been sent. The Republic will also publish notices to the Holders in a leading newspaper having general circulation in New York City and London (which is expected to be The Wall Street Journal and the Financial Times, respectively). The Republic will consider any published notice to be given on the date of its first publication.

13.        Further Issues of Notes. The Republic may from time to time, without the consent of Holders of the Notes, create and issue additional Notes having the same Terms as the Notes in all respects, except for the issue date, issue price and first payment on the Notes; provided, however, that any additional Notes subsequently issued that are not fungible with the previously Outstanding Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes shall have a separate CUSIP, ISIN or other identifying number from the previously Outstanding Notes. Additional Notes issued in this manner will be consolidated with and will form a single Series with the previously Outstanding Notes.

14.        Prescription. To the extent permitted by law, claims against the Republic for the payment of principal of, or interest or other amounts due on, the Notes (including Additional Amounts) will become void unless made within four years of the date on which that payment first became due.

15.        Authentication. This Note shall not become valid or obligatory until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been duly signed by the Trustee or its agent.

16.        Governing Law. (a) The Indenture will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. This Note will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

(b)        The Republic hereto hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any New York State or U.S. federal court sitting in New York City in the Borough of Manhattan and any appellate court of either thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Indenture, and the Republic hereby irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such legal action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York state or U.S. federal court. The Republic hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection to venue or defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such action or proceeding in such jurisdiction and any right of jurisdiction in such action or proceeding on account of the place of residence or domicile of the Republic.

(c)        The Republic hereby irrevocably appoints the Consul General of Chile in the City of New York, with an office on the date hereof at 600 Third Avenue #2808, New York, New York 10016, United States as its authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”) to receive on behalf of the Republic and its property service of copies of any summons and complaint and any other process which may be served in any such legal action or proceeding, except actions arising out of United States federal or state securities laws, brought in such New York State or U.S. federal court sitting in New York City in the Borough of Manhattan. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to the Republic at the address specified above for the Process Agent.

 

R-9


(d)        Nothing in this paragraph 16 shall affect the right of the Trustee or (in connection with legal actions or proceedings by any Holder as permitted by the Indenture and this Note) any Holder to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of the Trustee or any such Holder to bring any action or proceeding against the Republic or its property in the courts of other jurisdictions.

(e)        To the extent that the Republic has or hereafter may acquire or have attributed to it any sovereign or other immunity under any law from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise, and attachments of revenues, assets and property of the Republic located in the Republic, to the extent permitted under laws of the Republic) with respect to any of its revenues, assets, or properties, the Republic hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under the Notes, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the Republic, in respect of its obligations under the Indenture. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Republic agrees that the waivers set forth in this paragraph 16(e) shall be to the fullest extent permitted under the U.S. Foreign Republic Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States (the “Immunities Act”) and are intended to be irrevocable for purposes of such Act. The Republic reserves the right to plead sovereign immunity under the Immunities Act with respect to actions brought against it under U.S. federal securities laws or any state securities laws, and the Republic’s appointment of the Process Agent will not extend to such actions.

(f)        The Republic hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any requirement or other provision of law, rule, regulation or practice which requires or otherwise establishes as a condition to the institution, prosecution or completion of any action or proceeding (including appeals) arising out of or relating to the Notes the posting of any bond or the furnishing, directly or indirectly, of any other security.

17.        Indemnification for Foreign Exchange Fluctuations. The obligation of Republic to any Holder under the Notes that has obtained a court judgment affecting the Notes shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the currency in which the Note is denominated (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Holder of any amount in the Judgment Currency, such Holder may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency (or, if it is not practicable to make that purchase on that day, on the first Business Day on which it is practicable to do so). If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the amount originally to be paid to such Holder in the Agreement Currency, the Republic agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding such judgment, to pay the difference, and if the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased exceeds the amount originally to be paid to such Holder, such Holder agrees to pay to or for the account of the Republic such excess, provided that such Holder shall not have any obligation to pay any such excess as long as a default by the Republic in its obligations hereunder has occurred and is continuing, in which case such excess may be applied by such Holder to such obligations.

 

R-10


18.        Warranty of the Republic. Subject to paragraph 15, the Republic hereby certifies and warrants that all acts, conditions and things required to be done and performed and to have happened precedent to the creation and issuance of this Note and to constitute the same legal, valid and binding obligations of Republic enforceable in accordance with their terms, have been done and performed and have happened in due and strict compliance with all applicable laws.

19.        Definitive Headings. The descriptive headings appearing in these Terms are for convenience of reference only and shall not alter, limit or define the provisions hereof.

20.        Modifications. (a) Any Modification to the Notes or the Indenture insofar as it affects the Notes shall be made in accordance with Article Ten and Article Eleven of the Indenture.

(b)        Any Modification pursuant to this paragraph 20 will be conclusive and binding on all Holders of the Notes, and on all future Holders of the Notes whether or not notation of such Modification is made upon the Notes. Any instrument given by or on behalf of any Holder of a Note in connection with any consent to or approval of any such Modification will be conclusive and binding on all subsequent Holders of that Note.

Ministry of Finance

Teatinos 120, Piso 12

Santiago, Chile

May 13, 2020

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special United States counsel to the Republic of Chile (the “Republic” or “Chile”) in connection with the Republic’s offering, pursuant to registration statements (Nos. 333-222495 and 333-235463) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), under Schedule B of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) of US$1,458,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Chile’s 2.450% Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”) issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”), as amended and supplemented by the first supplemental indenture dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”). Registration statement No. 333-222495 and No. 333-235463, each as amended as of its most recent effective date, May 5, 2020 the date on which the most recent Form 18-K/A was filed as an amendment, insofar as they relate to the Notes (as determined for purposes of Rule 430B(f)(2) under the Securities Act), including the documents incorporated by reference therein, are herein collectively called the “Registration Statements”; the related prospectus dated January 16, 2020, included in the Registration Statements as filed with the Commission, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Base Prospectus”; the related preliminary prospectus supplement dated May 5, 2020, as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”; and the related prospectus supplement dated May 5, 2020, as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Final Prospectus Supplement.” The Base Prospectus and the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement together are herein called the “Pricing Prospectus,” and the Base Prospectus and the Final Prospectus Supplement together are herein called the “Final Prospectus.”

Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Chile, p. 2

In arriving at the opinions expressed below, we have reviewed the following documents:

 

  (a)

the Registration Statements;

 

  (b)

the Final Prospectus;

 

  (c)

an executed copy of the Indenture and an executed copy of the First Supplemental Indenture;

 

  (d)

an executed copy of the Authorization Certificate related to the Notes, dated as of May 12, 2020, pursuant to which the terms of the Notes were established;

 

  (e)

a facsimile copy of the Notes in global form, as executed by the Republic and authenticated by the Trustee; and

 

  (f)

a copy of the executed underwriting agreement relating to the Notes, dated as of May 5, 2020, between the Republic and the underwriters named therein (the “Underwriting Agreement”).

In addition, we have reviewed the originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of all such other documents and other certificates of public officials and representatives of the Republic and such other persons, and we have made such investigations of law, as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinion expressed below.

In rendering the opinion expressed below, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. In addition, we have assumed and have not verified (i) the accuracy as to factual matters of each document we have reviewed and (ii) that the Notes have been duly authenticated in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and paid in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement.

Based on the foregoing and subject to the further assumptions and qualifications set forth below, it is our opinion that the Notes are valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Republic.

In giving the foregoing opinion, (i) we have assumed that each of the Republic and the Trustee has satisfied those legal requirements that are applicable to it to the extent necessary to make the Indenture and the Notes enforceable against the parties thereto (except that no such assumption is made as to the Republic regarding matters of the federal law of the United States or the law of the State of New York that in our experience normally would be applicable in relation to the Indenture and the Notes), (ii) such opinion is subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, to general principles of equity, and (iii) such opinion is subject to the effect of judicial application of foreign laws or foreign governmental actions affecting creditors’ rights.

We note that the designation in Section 9.7(b) of the Indenture and Paragraph 16(b) of the terms and conditions of the Notes of the U.S. federal courts sitting in The City of New York as a venue for actions or proceedings relating to the Indenture and the Notes is


Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Chile, p. 3

(notwithstanding the waiver in Section 9.7(e) of the Indenture and Paragraph 16(e) of the terms and conditions of the Notes) subject to the power of such courts to transfer actions pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a) or to dismiss such actions or proceedings on the grounds that such federal court is an inconvenient forum for such action or proceeding.

In addition, we note that the enforceability in the United States of the waiver of immunities from court jurisdiction and from legal process by the Republic set forth in Section 9.7(e) of the Indenture, and Paragraph 16(e) of the terms and conditions of the Notes, is subject to the limitations imposed by the United States Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976, as amended. We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any such waiver of immunity to the extent that it purports to apply to any immunity to which the Republic may become entitled after the date hereof.

We express no opinion as to the enforceability of Paragraph 17 of the terms and conditions of the Notes relating to currency indemnity.

The foregoing opinion is limited to the federal law of the United States of America and the law of the State of New York.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to Amendment No. 3 to the Republic’s Annual Report on Form 18-K for the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2019 and to the references to us under the heading “Validity of the Securities” in the Base Prospectus and “Validity of the Notes” in the Final Prospectus Supplement. In giving such consent, we do not hereby admit that we are experts with respect to any part of the Registration Statements, including this exhibit, within the meaning of the term “expert” as used in the Securities Act, or the rules and regulations of the Commission issued thereunder. We assume no obligation to advise you, or to make any investigations, as to any legal developments or factual matters arising subsequent to the date hereof that might affect the opinion expressed herein.

 

Very truly yours,

Re.:    US$1,458,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 2.450% Notes due 2021

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special Chilean counsel to the Republic of Chile (the “Republic”) in connection with the Republic’s offering, pursuant to registration statements (No. 333-222495 and No. 333-235463) (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under Schedule B of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) of US$ 1,458,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Republic’s 2.450% Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”), issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of December 12, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”) between the Republic and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended and supplemented by the first supplemental indenture dated as of May 27, 2015 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). Such Registration Statement, as of May 5, 2020, the date on which the most recent Form 18-K/A was filed as an amendment thereto, insofar as it relates to the Notes (as determined for purposes of Rule 430B(f)(2) under the Securities Act), but excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein, are herein called the “Registration Statement”; the related prospectus dated January 16, 2020, included in the Registration Statement as filed with the Commission, but excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Base Prospectus”; the related preliminary prospectus supplement dated May 5, 2020, as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, but excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”; and the related prospectus supplement dated May 5, 2020, as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, but excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Final Prospectus Supplement”. The Base Prospectus and the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement together are herein called the “Pricing Prospectus” and the Base Prospectus and the Final Prospectus Supplement together are herein called the “Final Prospectus”.

In arriving at the opinion expressed below, we have reviewed the following documents:

 

  a)

the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus;


LOGO

 

  b)

the Indenture;

 

  c)

the Authorization executed by the Republic of Chile dated May 12, 2020, pursuant to which the terms of the Notes were established;

 

  d)

a facsimile copy of the Notes, in global form as executed by Chile and authenticated by the Trustee;

 

  e)

all the relevant provisions of the Constitution of the Republic of Chile of 1980, as amended (the “Constitution”), and all relevant laws and orders of Chile, including but not limited to the following (copies and translations of which are attached as Exhibit A to this opinion):

 

  (i)

Articles 32, number 6; 63, numbers 7 and 8; and 65, paragraph 4, number 3 of the Constitution;

 

  (ii)

Article 3 of Law No. 21,192, published in the Official Gazette on December 19, 2019;

 

  (iii)

Law No. 21,225, published in the Official Gazette on April 2, 2020;

 

  (iv)

Articles 45, 46, 47 and 47 bis of Decree Law 1,263 of November 21, 1975, as amended;

 

  (v)

Decree Law 2,349 of October 13, 1978, as amended;

 

  (vi)

Supreme Decree No. 507 dated April 3, 2020 of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic and published in the Official Gazette on April 25, 2020; and

 

  f)

all such other documents, instruments and rules as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed.

We have assumed for purposes of this opinion: (i) that the Trustee has adequate power, authority and legal right to enter into the Indenture, to execute the documents and take the actions to be executed and taken thereunder, including the authentication of the Notes; (ii) the authenticity of all documents examined by us (and the completeness of and conformity to the originals of any copies thereof submitted to us) and the genuineness of all signatures; and (iii) that the Notes and the Indenture, and any other related agreement or document that is stated to be governed by and construed in accordance with New York law, has been duly authorized, executed and delivered pursuant to New York law.

Based on the foregoing and subject to the further assumptions and qualifications set forth below, it is our opinion that under and with respect to the present laws and regulations of Chile, the Notes have been duly executed and delivered by the Republic and constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Republic.

In rendering this opinion we have relied, without independent investigation, (i) to the extent this opinion involves any matter of United States Federal and New York law, upon the opinion of Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP, special U.S. counsel to the Republic, dated as of even date herewith and included as an exhibit to the Amendment No. 2 to the Republic’s Annual Report on Form 18-K/A for the

Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Amendment”); and (ii) as to matters of fact, to the extent we have deemed proper, on certificates of officers of the Republic and certificates or other written statements of Chilean officials having custody of relevant documents.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Amendment and to the reference to our name under the caption “Validity of the Securities” in the Base Prospectus and “Validity of the Notes” in the Final Prospectus Supplement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are experts with respect to any part of the Registration Statement, including this exhibit, within the meaning of the term “expert” as used in the Securities Act, or the rules and regulations of the Commission issued thereunder. We assume no obligation to advise you, or to make any investigations, as to any legal developments or factual matters arising subsequent to the date hereof that might affect the opinion expressed herein.

 

Very truly yours,
