Additional notes regarding the completion and submission of this Form
 
In order to be effective, this Form must, except as mentioned below, be executed personally by the registered holder or, in the case of a joint holding, by the representative of ALL the joint holders as provided for in Article 23 of Law 18.046 of the Chilean Corporations Law. A corporation must execute this Form by means of an authorized officer.
 
If your titulo(s) is/are held by your stockbroker, bank or some other agent
 
You should either obtain from your stockbroker, bank or other agent the título(s) in your name and submit it to the Share Depositary together with the traspaso(s) with the date in blank and this Form duly signed with all the documents indicated above or, alternatively, you should instruct your stockbroker, bank or other agent to tender your Shares in the manner specified above.
 
If you have lost any of your share certificates
 
The completed Form, together with any título(s) which you have available, should be sent to or delivered by hand to the Share Depositary at the address set forth on the front cover accompanied by a letter stating that you have lost or destroyed one or more of your título(s). You should then follow the procedures provided for in Article 21 of Law 18.046 of the Chilean Corporations Act and thereupon request the Shareholders’ registry of the Company to issue substitute título(s).
 
If a holder is away from home (e.g., abroad or on holiday) or if this Form is being signed under a Power of Attorney
 
Send this Form by the quickest means (e.g., air mail) to the holder for execution or, if the holder has executed a Power of Attorney, have this Form signed by the Attorney. The completed Form together with the required documents should be deposited with the Share Depositary at the address set forth on the front cover accompanied by the Power of Attorney (or a duly certified copy thereof, provided the signature is original). Any Power of Attorney must have been granted before a Notary Public in Chile or before the competent Chilean General Consul. The Power of Attorney (or a duly certified copy thereof) will be submitted for registration by the Share Depositary and returned as directed. No other signatures are acceptable.
 
If you have sold off all your holdings
 
You should send this Form at once to the stockbroker, bank or other agent through whom the sale was effected for transmission to the purchaser.
 
If you have any questions
 
You should immediately contact your stockbroker, bank or other agent or the D.F. King & Co., Inc. at (800) 859-8511.
 
The consideration due to you under the U.S. Offer cannot be sent to you until all relevant documents have been properly completed and sent to or deposited with the Share Depositary. Notwithstanding that no título(s) and/or other document(s) of title is/are delivered with it, this Form, if otherwise valid, accompanied by the appropriate endorsement or certificate signed on behalf of the transfer agent of the Company will be treated as a valid acceptance of the U.S. Offer.
 
If your tendered Shares are accepted for payment, you may be subject to U.S. income tax backup withholding
 
Under U.S. federal income tax law, the amount of any payments made by the Share Depositary to holders of Shares (other than corporate and certain other exempt holders) pursuant to the U.S. Offer may be subject to backup withholding tax currently at a rate of 28%. To avoid such backup withholding tax with respect to payments pursuant to the U.S. Offer, a non-exempt, tendering “U.S. holder” (as defined in “The U.S. Offer — Section 6 — Certain U.S. federal income Tax Consequences”) must provide the Share Depositary with such holder’s correct taxpayer identification number (“TIN”) and certify under penalty of perjury that (1) the TIN provided is correct (or that such holder is awaiting a TIN) and (2) such holder is not subject to backup withholding tax by completing the Substitute Form W-9 included as part of the Form of Acceptance. If backup withholding applies with respect to a holder of Shares or if a holder of Shares fails to deliver a


7


 

completed Substitute Form W-9 to the Share Depositary or otherwise establish an exemption, the Share Depositary is required to withhold 28% of any payments made to such holder. See “The U.S. Offer — Section 6 — Certain U.S. federal income Tax Consequences.”
 
The box in Part 3 of Substitute Form W-9 may be checked if the holder of Shares is required to submit a Substitute Form W-9 and has not been issued a TIN and has applied for a TIN or intends to apply for a TIN in the near future. If the box in Part 3 is so checked and the Share Depositary is not provided with a TIN by the time of payment, the Share Depositary will withhold 28% on all such payments until a TIN is provided to the Share Depositary.
 
Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained by filing a tax return with the Internal Revenue Service. The Share Depositary cannot refund amounts withheld by reason of backup withholding.
 
If I want to make a partial tender
 
If fewer than all of the Shares delivered to the Share Depositary are to be tendered, fill in the number of Shares which are to be tendered in Box 1. In such case, a new titulo for the remainder of the Shares represented by the old título will be sent to the person(s) signing this Form, unless otherwise provided in Box 4, as promptly as practicable following the date the tendered Shares are accepted for payment. All Shares delivered to the Share Depositary will be deemed to have been tendered unless otherwise indicated in Box 1.

Backup withholding applies to the reportable payment if the payee has not provided a TIN or has provided an incorrect TIN.
 
•  Payments of tax-exempt interest (including exempt-interest dividends under section 852).
 
•  Payments described in section 6049(b)(5) to nonresident aliens.
 
•  Payments on tax-free covenant bonds under section 1451.
 
•  Payments made by certain foreign organizations.
 
•  Mortgage or student loan interest paid to you.
 
Other types of payments that generally are exempt from backup withholding include:
 
•  Wages.
 
•  Distributions from a pension, annuity, profit-sharing or stock bonus plan, any IRA where the payor is also the trustee or custodian, an owner-employee plan, or other deferred compensation plan.
 
•  Distributions from qualified tuition programs or Coverdell ESAs.
 
•  Certain surrenders of life insurance contracts.
 
•  Gambling winnings if withholding is required under section 3402(q). However, if withholding is not required under section 3402(q), backup withholding applies if the payee fails to furnish a TIN.
 
•  Real estate transactions reportable under section 6045(e).
 
•  Cancelled debts reportable under section 6050P.
 
•  Certain payment card transactions by a qualified payment card agent (as described in Revenue Procedure 2004-42 and Treasury Regulations section 31.3406(g)-1(f)) and if the requirements under Treasury Regulations section 31.3406(g)-1(f) are met.
 
•  Distributions from a medical savings account and long-term care benefits.
 
•  Fish purchases for cash reportable under section 6050R.
 
Exempt payees described above should file Form W-9 to avoid possible erroneous backup withholding. FILE THIS FORM WITH THE PAYER, FURNISH YOUR TIN, WRITE “EXEMPT” ON THE FACE OF THE FORM AND RETURN IT TO THE PAYER. IF THE PAYMENTS ARE INTEREST, DIVIDENDS OR PATRONAGE DIVIDENDS, ALSO SIGN AND DATE THE FORM.
 
Certain payments other than interest, dividends and patronage dividends not subject to information reporting are also not subject to backup withholding. For details, see the regulations under Internal Revenue Code sections 6041, 6041A, 6042, 6044, 6045, 6049, 6050A and 6050N.
 
Privacy Act Notice. — Section 6109 of the Internal Revenue Code requires you to give your correct TIN to persons who must file information returns with the IRS to report, among other things, interest, dividends, and certain other income paid to you. The IRS uses the numbers for identification purposes and to help verify the accuracy of your tax return. The IRS may also provide this information to the Department of Justice for civil and criminal litigation, and to cities, states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. possessions to carry out their tax laws. The IRS may also disclose this information to other countries under a tax treaty, to federal and state agencies to enforce federal nontax criminal laws, or to federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies to combat terrorism.
 
You must provide your TIN whether or not you are required to file a tax return. Payers must generally withhold 28% of taxable interest, dividend and certain other payments to a payee who does not give a TIN to a payer. Certain penalties may also apply.

PENALTIES
 
(1)  Penalty for Failure to Furnish TIN. — If you fail to furnish your correct TIN to a requester, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect.
 
(2)  Civil Penalty for False Information With Respect to Withholding. — If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis that results in no imposition of backup withholding, you are subject to a penalty of $500.
 
(3)  Civil and Criminal Penalties for False Information. — Willfully falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment.
 
(4)  Misuse of Taxpayer Identification Numbers. — If the requester discloses or uses TINs in violation of federal law, the requester may be subject to civil and criminal penalties.
