INTRODUCTION
This Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this “Schedule TO”) relates to the offer (the “Offer”) by Inversiones y Rentas S.A. (“IRSA”), a Chilean closely held corporation, to purchase an aggregate of up to 16,390,172 issued and outstanding shares of common stock, no par value, of Compañía Cervecerías Unidas S.A., an open stock corporation (sociedad anónima abierta) organized under the laws of the Republic of Chile (“CCU”) (the “Shares” and each a “Share”), from all holders, wherever located, and whether they currently hold such Shares in the form of Shares or American Depositary Shares (the “ADSs,” and each an “ADS”) of CCU (each representing two (2) Shares), at a purchase price of Ch$6,800 per Share (equivalent to Ch$13,600 per ADS), in cash, without interest (the “Tender Offer Price”). The Offer is conducted in accordance with applicable United States securities laws and the 5th paragraph of Article 198 of Chilean Law No. 18,045 (the “Capital Markets Law”). The Offer will be settled in the Bolsa de Comercio de Santiago, Bolsa de Valores (the “Santiago Stock Exchange”) by delivery of the Shares to the Chilean Share Tender Agent (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) against payment of the Tender Offer Price. The Tender Offer Price for the Shares tendered to the Chilean Share Tender Agent or the U.S. Share Tender Agent (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) that are accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will be paid in Chilean pesos, upon the terms and subject to certain conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, dated as of May 19, 2021, and any amendments or supplements thereto (the “Offer to Purchase”) and in the related Form of Chilean Share Acceptance or Form of U.S. Share Acceptance, as applicable, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits (a)(1)(A), (a)(1)(B) and (a)(1)(C), respectively. The Tender Offer Price for the Shares represented by ADSs tendered to the ADS Tender Agent (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) that are accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will also be paid by IRSA in Chilean pesos. However, IRSA has directed the U.S. Settlement Agent (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) to coordinate with the FX Agent (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) for the U.S. dollar conversion of the Tender Offer Price payable to holders of ADSs that are tendered to the ADS Tender Agent, upon instruction of the ADS Tender Agent and for the account of holders who tender their ADSs to the ADS Tender Agent. To effect this exchange, the FX Agent and the U.S. Settlement Agent have agreed to arrange for the conversion of the Tender Offer Price at the Observed Exchange Rate published on the settlement date of the Tender Offer, plus Ch$0.22 per U.S. dollar. However, there may be unanticipated factors beyond the FX Agent’s control that could result in this rate not being realized, and accordingly, there are no assurances that the Tender Offer Price will be able to be exchanged at that rate on the Settlement Date, and if that rate cannot be obtained, the Tender Offer Price will need to be exchanged into U.S. dollars at alternative rates (to be obtained using ordinary banking procedures at then prevailing market rates) which may be more or less advantageous than such rate (the rate at which the Tender Offer Price is exchanged, the “ADS Tender Offer Price Exchange Rate”). As a result, holders of Shares represented by ADSs tendered to the ADS Tender Agent that are accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will receive payment in United States dollars converted at the ADS Tender Offer Price Exchange Rate, less distribution fees (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) and applicable withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to certain conditions described in the Offer to Purchase and in the related ADS Letter of Transmittal, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(D), respectively. Holders of Shares represented by ADSs who tender their ADSs to the ADS Tender Agent should note that the ADS Tender Offer Price Exchange Rate at which the Tender Offer Price is expected to be exchanged into U.S. dollars may fluctuate and that none of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (in its capacity as U.S. Settlement Agent), Banco de Chile (in its capacity as FX Agent), IRSA, the Chilean Share Tender Agent, or the ADS Tender Agent can guarantee the ADS Tender Offer Price Exchange Rate at which the Tender Offer Price is expected to be exchanged into U.S. dollars or the timing in which such exchange can be completed. If there are delays with the conversion of the Tender Offer Price into U.S. dollars, the settlement of the Tender Offer for holders of Shares who tender ADSs to the ADS Tender Agent may be delayed, and such delay may be substantial.
