ANDINA BOTTLING COMPANY, INC.



REPORT ON FORM 6-K




     Embotelladora Andina S.A. (the "Company") discloses that, with respect to the membership of José Antonio Garcés Silva (junior) on the Company's audit committee, it has relied on the exemption from the independence requirements provided by Rule 10A-3(b)(1)(iv)(D) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Pursuant to Rule 10A-3(b)(1)(iv)(D), a director who is either an affiliate or a representative of an affiliate of the listed company may serve as a member of the audit committee to the extent the director is not a voting member or chairperson of the audit committee and to the extent that neither the director nor the affiliate the director represents is an executive officer of the listed company.


     Mr. Garcés Silva meets the requirements of Rule 10A-3(b)(1)(iv)(D)because he (i) is a representative of the controlling shareholder of the Company, Inversiones Freire S.A.; (ii) has only observer status on the audit committee of the Company; and (iii) is not an executive officer of the Company.


    The Company's reliance on the exemption provided by Rule 10A-3(b)(1)(iv)(D)of the Exchange Act would not materially adversely affect the ability of the audit committee of the Company to act independently.
