For the convenience of the reader, this annual report contains translations of certain Chilean peso amounts into U.S. dollars at specified rates. Unless otherwise indicated, U.S. dollar equivalent information for amounts in Chilean pesos is based on the Observed Exchange Rate (as defined under Item 3. Key InformationExchange Rates) reported by the Banco Central de Chile (the Central Bank of Chile), which we refer to as the Central Bank.

On August 28, 2007 the Chilean Superintendence of Insurance and Securities announced the adoption of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)in Chile which became mandatory for companies of a certain size beginning 2009 and 2010. The Company decided to adopt the IFRS of the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as its accounting and reporting rules beginning January 1, 2010. Additionally the period between January 1 and December 31, 2009 constituted the transition period towards IFRS and the Financial Statements of the year 2010 are presented comparatively with 2009.
Also as part of adopting IFRS, shareholders equity underwent changes as a result of the revaluation of property, plant and equipment, differed taxes, minimum dividend and determining of functional currency of the group´s entities.
Forward-looking information
This annual report contains or incorporates by reference statements that constitute forward-looking statements, in that they include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of our directors and officers with respect to our future operating performance. Such statements include any forecasts, projections and descriptions of anticipated cost savings or other synergies. Words such as anticipate, expect, intend, plan, believe, seek, estimate, variations
of such words, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. You should be aware that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and may involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors (including, without limitations, the actions of competitors, future global economic conditions, market conditions, foreign exchange rates, and operating and financial risks related to managing growth and integrating acquired businesses), many of which are beyond our control. The occurrence of any such factors not currently expected by us would significantly alter the results set forth in these statements. You should not place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date that they were made. Our independent auditors have not examined or compiled the forward-looking statements and, accordingly, do not provide any assurance with respect to such statements. These cautionary statements should be considered in connection with any written or oral forward-looking statements that we might issue in the future. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to such forward-looking statements after filing of this annual report to reflect later events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Market Data

A. Selected Financial Data
The following table presents our selected consolidated and other financial and operating information at the dates and for the periods indicated. The selected financial information at December 31, 2010 and 2009 and for each of the two years ended December 31, 2010 has been derived from, should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to our Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Item 18 of this annual report, that we refer to in this annual report as the Consolidated Financial Statements . Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) eliminated the requirement of preparing reconciliation between IFRS and U.S. GAAP for foreign listed companies that use IFRS as issued by the IASB.
Our consolidated financial results include the results of our subsidiaries located in Chile, Brazil and Argentina. Our subsidiaries outside Chile prepare their financial statements in accordance with IFRS and to comply with local regulations in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the country in which they operate. The Consolidated Financial Statements reflect the results of the subsidiaries outside of Chile, translated to Chilean pesos (functional and reporting currency of the parent company) and are presented in accordance with IFRS. The International Financial Reporting Standards requires assets and liabilities to be translated from the functional currency of each entity to the reporting currency (Chilean peso) at end of period exchange rates and income and expense accounts to be translated at the average monthly exchange rate for the month in which income or expense is recognized. Unless otherwise specified, our financial data is presented herein in nominal Chilean pesos and U.S. dollars.
The following table presents our selected consolidated financial information. This information should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, our Consolidated Financial Statements, including the notes thereto in Item 18.

D. Risk Factors
The Company is subject to various economic, political, social and competitive conditions. Any of the following risks, if they materialize, could materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, prospects and financial condition.
Risks Related to our Company
We rely heavily on our relationship with The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC) which has substantial influence over our business and operations
Approximately 85% of our net sales in 2010 were derived from the distribution of Coca-Cola soft drinks and 12% from the distribution of other beverages bearing trademarks owned by TCCC. We produce, market and distribute Coca-Cola products through standard bottler agreements between our bottler subsidiaries and, in each case, the local subsidiary of TCCC or, in the case of fruit juices and nectars, The Minute Maid Company, a subsidiary of TCCC. TCCC has the ability to
exercise substantial influence over our business through its rights under the Bottler Agreements. See Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party TransactionsBottler Agreements. Under the Bottler Agreements, TCCC unilaterally sets the prices for Coca-Cola soft drink concentrates and Coca-Cola beverages (in the case of soft drinks pre-mixed by TCCC) sold to us. TCCC also monitors pricing changes we institute and has the right to review and approve our marketing, operational and advertising plans. These factors may impact our profit margins which could adversely affect our net income and results of operations. Our marketing campaigns for all Coca-Cola products are designed and controlled by TCCC. Pursuant to the Bottler Agreements, we are required to submit a business plan to TCCC for prior approval on a yearly basis. In accordance with the Bottler Agreements, TCCC may, among other things, require that we demonstrate financial ability to meet our business plan and if we are not able to demonstrate our financial capacity TCCC may terminate our rights to produce, market and distribute Coca-Cola soft drinks or other Coca-Cola beverages in territories where we have such approval. Under the Bottler Agreements, we are prohibited from producing, bottling, distributing or selling any products that could be substituted for, be confused with or be considered an imitation of, Coca-Cola soft drinks or other Coca-Cola beverages and products.
We depend on TCCC to renew the Bottler Agreements which are subject to termination by TCCC in the event we default or upon expiration of their respective terms. We cannot assure you that the Bottler Agreements will be renewed or extended upon their expiration, and even if they are renewed, we cannot be certain that renewal will be granted on the same terms as those currently in effect. Termination, non-extension or non-renewal of any of the Bottler Agreements would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.
In addition, any acquisition we make of bottlers of Coca-Cola products in other countries may require, among other things, the consent of TCCC under bottler agreements to which such other bottlers are subject. We cannot assure you that TCCC will consent to any future geographic expansion of our Coca-Cola beverage business. In addition, we cannot assure you that our relationship with TCCC will not undergo significant changes in the future. If such changes do occur, our operations, and financial results and condition could be materially affected.
Our business is highly competitive and subject to price competition which may adversely affect our net profits and margins
The soft drink and non-alcoholic beverage businesses are highly competitive in each of our Companys franchise territories. In our franchise territories we compete with bottlers of regional brands, including low cost B brand beverages and Pepsi products. In Argentina and Brazil we compete with Companhia de Bebidas das Americas, commonly referred to as AmBev, the largest brewer in Latin America and a subsidiary of InBev S.A., which sells Pepsi products, in addition to a portfolio that includes local brands with flavors such as guaraná. This competition is likely to continue, and we cannot assure you that it will not intensify in the future which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. See Item 4. Information on the Company Part B. Business Overview Soft Drink BusinessCompetition.
Changes in the nonalcoholic beverages business environment could adversely affect our financial results
The nonalcoholic beverages business environment is rapidly evolving as a result of, among other things, changes in consumer preferences, including changes based on health and nutrition considerations and obesity concerns, shifting consumer tastes and needs, changes in consumer lifestyles and competitive product and pricing pressures. In addition, the industry is being affected by the trend toward consolidation in the retail channel. If we are unable to successfully adapt to this rapidly changing environment, our net income, share of sales and volume growth could be negatively affected.
Raw material prices may be subject to U.S. dollar/local currency exchange risk and price volatility which could increase our costs of operations
Numerous raw materials, including sugar and resin, are used in producing beverages and containers. We purchase raw materials from both domestic and international suppliers. See Item 4. Information on the CompanyPart B. Business OverviewSoft Drink BusinessRaw Materials and Supplies. Because the prices of raw materials are fixed in U.S. dollars, we are subject to local currency risk in each of our operations. If the Chilean peso, Brazilian real or Argentine peso were to depreciate significantly against the U.S. dollar, the cost of certain raw materials could rise significantly, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We cannot assure you that these currencies will not lose value against the U.S. dollar in the future. Additionally, these raw materials are subject to international price volatility that could also have a material negative effect over our profitability.
Instability in the supply of utility services and oil prices may adversely impact our results of operations
Our operations depend on a stable supply of utilities and fuel in the countries where we operate that the Company cannot assure fluctuations in oil prices have adversely affected our cost of energy and transportation in the three countries we operate and we expect that they will continue to do so in the future. We believe that the increase of energy prices will not have a significant effect over our results of operations.
Water scarcity and poor quality could negatively impact the Companys production costs and capacity.
Water is the main ingredient in substantially all of our products. It is also a limited resource in many parts of the world, facing unprecedented challenges from overexploitation, increasing pollution and poor management. As demand for water continues to increase around the world, and as the quality of available water deteriorates, the Company may incur increasing production costs or face capacity constraints that could adversely affect our profitability or net operating revenues in the long run.
Significant additional labeling or warning requirements may inhibit sales of affected products.
The countries in which we operate, may adopt significant additional product labeling or warning requirements relating to the chemical content or perceived adverse health consequences of certain of the Coca-Cola products. These types of requirements, if they become applicable to one or more of the Coca-Cola products under current or future environmental or health laws or regulations, may inhibit sales of such products.
If we are unable to protect our information systems against data corruption, cyber-based attacks or network security breaches, our operations could be disrupted.
We are increasingly dependent on information technology networks and systems, including the Internet, to process, transmit and store electronic information. In particular, we depend on our information technology infrastructure for digital marketing activities and electronic communications among the Company and our clients, suppliers and also among our subsidiaries. Security breaches of this infrastructure can create system disruptions, shutdowns or unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. If we are unable to prevent such breaches, our operations could be disrupted, or we may suffer financial damage or loss because of lost or misappropriated information.
Perception of risk in emerging economies may impede our access to international capital markets, hinder our ability to finance our operations and adversely affect the market price of our common shares and American Depositary Receipts.
As a general rule, international investors consider Argentina, and to a lesser extent Chile and Brazil, to be emerging market economies. Consequently, economic conditions and the market for securities of emerging market countries influence investors perceptions of Chile, Brazil and Argentina and their evaluation of companies securities located in these countries.
During periods of heightened investor concern regarding emerging market economies, in particular Argentina and to a lesser extent Brazil, have experienced significant outflows of U.S. dollars. In addition, Brazilian and Argentine companies have faced higher costs for raising funds, both domestically and abroad, as well as limited access to international capital markets, which have negatively affected the prices of Brazilian and Argentine securities. Although economic conditions are different in each of the emerging-market countries, investors reactions to developments in one of these countries may affect the securities of issuers in the others, including Chile. For example, adverse developments in other developing or emerging market countries may lead to decreased investor interest in investing in Chile or in the securities of Chilean companies, including securities of the Company.
It may be difficult to enforce civil liabilities against us or our directors, executive officers or controlling persons
We are a sociedad anónima, or stock corporation, organized under the laws of Chile. Some of our directors, executive officers and controlling persons reside in Chile or outside of the United States. In addition, all or a substantial portion of the assets of these persons and of our assets are located outside of the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon such persons, or to enforce against them in U.S. courts judgments predicated upon civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or otherwise obtained in U.S. courts. Because our assets are located outside of the United States, any judgment obtained in the United States against us may not be fully collectible in the United States.
If we experience strikes, work stoppages or labor unrest, our business would suffer.
Strikes, work stoppages or other forms of labor unrest at any of our production facilities could impair our ability to supply products to customers, which would reduce our revenues and could expose us to customer claims.
Risks Relating to Chile
Our growth and profitability depend on economic conditions in Chile
Approximately 47% of our assets and 33% of our net sales in 2010 were derived from our operations in Chile. Thus, our financial condition and results of operations depend significantly on economic conditions prevailing in Chile. According to data published by the Central Bank, the Chilean economy grew at a rate of 3.7% in 2008, -1.7% in 2009 and 5.2 % in 2010. Our financial condition and results of operations could also be adversely affected by changes over which we have no control, including, without limitation:
· the economic or other policies of the Chilean government, which has a substantial influence over many aspects of the private sector;
· other political or economic developments in or affecting Chile;
· regulatory changes or administrative practices of Chilean authorities;
· inflation and governmental policies to combat inflation;
· currency exchange movements; and
· global and regional economic conditions.
Inflation in Chile may disrupt our business and have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations
The annual rates of inflation in Chile which in 2008, 2009 and 2010 were 7.1%, -1.4% and 3.0%, respectively (as measured by changes in the consumer price index and as reported by the Chilean National Institute of Statistics) could adversely affect the Chilean economy and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. We cannot assure you that Chilean inflation will not continue to increase significantly. We cannot assure you that, under competitive pressure, we will be able to realize price increases, which could adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.
The Chilean peso is subject to depreciation and volatility which could adversely affect the value of an investment in our securities
The Chilean governments economic policies and any future changes in the value of the Chilean peso against the U.S. dollar, could adversely affect our operations and financial results and the dollar value of an investors return. The Chilean peso has been subject to large nominal devaluations in the past and may be subject to significant fluctuations in the future. Based on the Observed Exchange Rates for U.S. dollars in the period from 2007 to 2010 the Chilean peso relative to the U.S. dollar appreciated 12.1% in nominal terms. During 2010 the Chilean peso relative to the U.S. dollar appreciated 7.7% in nominal terms. See Item 3. Key Information-Exchange Rates.
Our Class A shares and Class B shares are traded in Chilean pesos on the Chilean Stock Exchanges. Cash distributions with respect to the shares will be received in Chilean pesos by the depositary, currently The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (as depositary for the Series A and Series B shares represented by the Series A and Series B ADRs), which will convert such Chilean pesos to U.S. dollars at the then prevailing exchange rate to make U.S. dollar payments in respect of the ADRs. If the value of the Chilean peso depreciates relative to the U.S. dollar, the value of the ADRs and any distributions to be received from the depositary would be adversely affected. In addition, the depositary will incur costs (to be ultimately borne by the ADR holders) in connection with the foreign currency conversion and subsequent distribution of dividends or other payments with respect to our ADRs.
Exchange controls and withholding taxes in Chile may limit repatriation of foreign investments
Equity investments in Chile by persons who are not Chilean residents are generally subject to various exchange control regulations that govern the convertibility and repatriation of the investments and earnings. The ADRs are governed by an Agreement among us, the depositary and the Central Bank of Chile (the Foreign Investment Agreement). The Foreign
Investment Agreement guarantees the depositary and the ADR holders access to Chiles Formal Exchange Market, permits the depositary to remit dividends it receives from us to the ADR holders and permits the holders of ADRs to repatriate the proceeds of the sale of shares withdrawn from the ADR facility, thereby enabling them to acquire currencies necessary to repatriate investments in the shares and earnings there from. Pursuant to current Chilean law, the Foreign Investment Agreement may not be amended unilaterally by the Central Bank of Chile, and there are judicial precedents (which are not binding with respect to future judicial decisions) indicating that the Foreign Investment Agreement may not be voided by future legislative changes.
Dividends received by ADR holders of are paid net of foreign currency exchange fees and expenses of the depositary and are subject to Chilean withholding tax, currently imposed at a rate of 35%, subject to credits in certain cases as described under Item 10. Additional Considerations Tax Considerations Relating to Equity Securities.
We cannot assure you that additional restrictions applicable to ADR holders , the disposition of the shares underlying the ADRs and the convertibility and/or the repatriation of the proceeds from such disposition or the payment of dividends will not be imposed in the future, nor can we advise as to the duration or impact of such restrictions if imposed. If for any reason, including changes in the Foreign Investment Agreement or Chilean law, the depositary was unable to convert Chilean pesos to U.S. dollars, investors would receive dividends or other distributions, if any, in Chile and in Chilean pesos.
Risks Relating to Brazil
Our business is dependent to some extent on economic conditions in Brazil
Approximately 41% of our assets and 46% of our consolidated net sales in 2010 were derived from our operations in Brazil. Because demand for soft drinks and beverage products is usually correlated to economic conditions prevailing in the relevant local market, which in turn is dependent on the macroeconomic condition of the country in which the market is located, our financial condition and results of operations to a considerable extent are dependent upon political and economic conditions prevailing in Brazil. According to data available to general public, the Brazilian economy grew at a rate of 5.2% in 2008, -0.6% in 2009 and 7.5% in 2010.
The Brazilian government exercises influence over the Brazilian economy, which together with historically volatile Brazilian political and economic conditions, could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and the market price of our shares and ADRs
Historically, the Brazilian government has changed monetary, credit, tariff, and other policies to influence the course of Brazils economy. Such government actions have included wage and price controls as well as other measures such as freezing bank accounts, imposing exchange controls and imposing limits on imports and exports. Changes in policy and other political and economic developments could adversely affect the Brazilian economy and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We cannot assure you that present economic conditions and policies intended to promote a sustainable economic development will continue.
Although inflation in Brazil has stabilized in recent years, increased inflation may adversely affect the operations of Andina Brazil which could adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations
As measured by the Brazilian Índice Nacional de Preços ao Consumidor or INPC, inflation in Brazil was 6.5%, 4.1% and 6.5% in 2008, 2009 and 2010, respectively. Increased inflation rates may result in lower consumer purchasing power on behalf of consumers and lower sales volume for Andina Brazil. We cannot assure you that levels of inflation in Brazil will not increase in future years and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Inflationary pressures may lead to further government intervention in the economy, including the introduction of government policies that could adversely affect the results of operations of Andina Brazil and consequently our financial condition and results of operations and the market price of our shares and ADSs.
The Brazilian real is subject to depreciation and volatility which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations
During 2007, the real appreciated 17.2%% against the U.S. dollar compared to the prior year period and in 2008, the real depreciated 31.9% due to the world economic crisis and in 2009 and 2010, it appreciated 25.5% and 4.3% respectively.
In the event of a devaluation of the real, the financial condition and results of operations of our Brazilian subsidiary could be adversely affected.
Depreciation of the real relative to the U.S. dollar may increase the cost of servicing foreign currency-denominated debt that we may incur in the future, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, depreciation of the real can create inflationary pressures in Brazil that may negatively affect our results of operations. Depreciation generally curtails access to international capital markets and combined with other macroeconomic aspects, may prompt recessionary government intervention. It also reduces the U.S. dollar value of our revenues, distributions and dividends, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the market price of our common shares. On the other hand, the appreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar may lead to the deterioration of Brazils public accounts and balance of payments, as well as to lower economic growth from exports.
The Brazilian government imposes certain restrictions on currency conversions and remittances abroad which could affect the timing and amount of any dividend or other payment we receive
Brazilian law guarantees foreign shareholders of Brazilian companies the right to repatriate their invested capital and to receive all dividends in foreign currency provided that their investment is registered with Brazils Central Bank. We registered our investment in Andina Brazil with the Brazilian Central Bank on October 19, 1995. Although dividend payments related to profits obtained subsequent to January 1, 1996 are not subject to income tax, after the sum of repatriated capital and invested capital exceeds the investment amount registered with the Brazilian Central Bank, repatriated capital is subject to a capital gains tax of 15%. Under current Chilean tax law, we will realize a tax credit in respect of all Brazilian taxes paid relating to Andina Brazil. There can be no assurance that the Brazilian government will not impose additional restrictions or modify existing regulations that would have an adverse effect on an investors ability to repatriate funds from Brazil nor can there be any assurance of the timing or duration of such restrictions, if imposed in the future.
Risks Relating to Argentina
Our business is dependent to some extent on economic conditions in Argentina
Approximately 12% of our assets and 21% of our net sales in 2010 were derived from our operations in Argentina. Because demand for soft drinks and beverage products usually is correlated to economic conditions prevailing in the local market, which in turn is dependent on the macroeconomic condition of the country, the financial condition and results of operations of our franchise in Argentina are, to a considerable extent, dependent upon political and economic conditions prevailing in Argentina.
GDP growth in Argentina was 9.2% in 2010, after a 0.9% in 2009 as a result of the world economic crisis. Facing the international financial crisis, the public sector did not default and carried out payments using the reserves of Argentinas Central bank and loans from Banco de la Nación Argentina, generating new and significant macroeconomic policy challenges. Although Argentina managed to roll with the punches of a recessive year and an international crisis without upsetting the main financial variables, we cannot assure that economic conditions in Argentina will continue improving or that our operations will continue experiencing good results.
Political and economic instability may recur which could have a material adverse effect on our Argentine operations and on our financial condition and results of operations.
In the period from 1998 through 2003, Argentina experienced acute economic problems that culminated with the restructuring of substantially all of Argentinas sovereign bond indebtedness. A succession of presidents were inaugurated during this crisis period and various states of emergency were declared that suspended civil liberties and instituted restrictions on transfers of funds abroad and foreign exchange controls, among other measures. Argentinas GDP contracted by 10.9% in 2002. Beginning 2003, Argentine GDP began to recover and from 2004 to 2008 recorded an average rate of growth of 8.4%. In the political environment, legislative elections carried out in June of 2009 were a misfortune for the governments political party losing the majority in both houses. This new political scenario in Argentina could make the executive power need to arrive at a consensus with the opposition regarding rules and regulations in order for them to be approved by the legislative power.
The macroeconomic condition in Argentina has been characterized by:
· increased inflation which has been slightly controlled by price control;
· deeper state of intervention in the economy;
· fiscal deficit ; and
· strong salary pressures.
The Argentine government continues to face significant exposure to litigation from holders of its defaulted debt that did not participate in the Argentine governments exchange offer.
The Argentine government could impose certain restrictions on currency conversions and remittances abroad which could affect the timing and amount of any dividends or other payment we receive from our Argentine franchise
Until December 2001, the Argentine peso was pegged 1-to-1 to the U.S. dollar. From January 1st, 2002, the Argentine peso has been allowed to float freely against the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies.
Since 2003 and following a series of restrictive measures in the money market and fund movements, the Argentine Central Bank removed several of the foreign exchange restrictions, including elimination of the requirement that the Argentine Central Bank approve the repayment of principal of financial indebtedness, extended the term for the repatriation of export proceeds, allowed earlier payments of imports, and starting 2004, increased up to US$2 million, the monthly amount that Argentine-domiciled individuals or corporations are allowed to purchase and transfer abroad.
There can be no assurance that the Argentine Central Bank will not once again require its prior authorization for the transfer of funds abroad in the form of dividends or payment of inter-company or third party loans. Any such inability to transfer funds outside of Argentina, in the form of dividends or otherwise, could adversely affect the value of our Argentine operations and the market value of our ADRs.
Inflation in Argentina may adversely affect our operations which could adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations
Argentina has experienced high levels of inflation in recent decades, resulting in large devaluations of its currency. Argentinas historically high rates of inflation resulted mainly from its lack of control over fiscal policy and the money supply. The official annual rates of inflation (published by INDEC-Instituto Nacional de Estadisticas y Censos- National Statistics and Census Institute as measured by changes in the consumer price index) between 2008 and 2010 were, 7.2%, 7.6% and 10.9%, respectively for each year. However, unofficial records place the consumer index at levels close to 25% for 2010. High levels of inflation in Argentina could adversely affect the Argentine economy and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
The Argentine peso is subject to depreciation and volatility which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations
During 2010, the exchange rate in Argentina underwent a 4.6% depreciation. The Argentine governments economic policies and any future devaluation of the Argentine peso against the U.S. dollar could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. The Argentine peso has been subject to large devaluations in the past and may be subject to significant fluctuations in the future.
The Public Emergency Law and Foreign Exchange Regime Reform Law of 2002 put an end to more than ten years of U.S. dollar-peso parity and authorized the Argentine government to set the exchange rate. Subsequent to the devaluation of the Argentine peso in early 2002 and since the beginning of the Argentine economic crisis, there have been significant fluctuations in the value of the Argentine peso causing repeated Argentine Central Bank interventions to stabilize the Argentine peso through purchases and sales of U.S. dollars said devaluation of the Argentine peso has had a negative impact on our results.
We cannot assure you that the policies to be implemented by the Argentine government in the future will stabilize the value of the Argentine peso against foreign currencies. Therefore, the Argentine peso may continue to be subject to significant fluctuations and further depreciations which might significantly and adversely affect our financial condition and the results of our operations.
Argentina continues to face political and economic uncertainty
The strong deterioration of global and local economic conditions, the rapid and radical nature of the changes in the Argentine social, political, economic and legal environment over the past years and the absence of a clear political consensus in favor of any particular set of economic policies raises doubts about Argentinas economic and political future. It is possible that, despite recent economic growth, Argentina could return to a deeper recession, higher inflation and unemployment and greater social unrest. We cannot assure you that laws and regulations implemented by the Argentine government to regulate the economy will not continue to change in the future or that any changes will not adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Risk Factors Relating to the ADRs and Common Stock
Preemptive rights may be unavailable to ADR holders
According to the Ley de Sociedades Anónimas No. 18.046 and the Reglamento de Sociedades Anónimas (collectively, the Chilean Companies Law), whenever we issue new shares for cash, we are required to grant preemptive rights to holders of our shares (including shares represented by ADRs), giving them the right to purchase a sufficient number of shares to maintain their existing ownership percentage. However, we may not be able to offer shares to United States holders of ADRs pursuant to preemptive rights granted to our shareholders in connection with any future issuance of shares unless a registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is effective with respect to such rights and shares, or an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is available.
Under the procedure established by the Central Bank of Chile, the foreign investment agreement of a Chilean company with an existing ADR program will become subject to an amendment (which will also be deemed to incorporate all laws and regulations applicable to international offerings in effect as of the date of the amendment) that will extend the benefits of such contract to new shares issued pursuant to a preemptive rights offering to existing ADR owners and to other persons residing and domiciled outside of Chile that exercise preemptive rights, upon request to the Central Bank of Chile. We intend to evaluate at the time of any rights offering the costs and potential liabilities associated with any such registration statement as well as the indirect benefits to us of enabling United States ADR holders to exercise preemptive rights and any other factors that we consider appropriate at the time, and then make a decision as to whether to file such registration statement.
We cannot assure you that any registration statement would be filed. To the extent ADR holders are unable to exercise such rights because a registration statement has not been filed, the depositary will attempt to sell such holders preemptive rights and distribute the net proceeds thereof if a secondary market for such rights exists and a premium can be recognized over the cost of any such sale. If such rights cannot be sold, they will expire and ADR holders will not realize any value from the grant of such preemptive rights. In any such case, such holders equity interest in the Company would be diluted proportionately.
Shareholders rights are less well defined in Chile than in other jurisdictions, including the United States
Under the United States federal securities laws, as a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from certain rules that apply to domestic United States issuers with equity securities registered under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including the proxy solicitation rules, the rules requiring disclosure of share ownership by directors, officers and certain shareholders. We are also exempt from certain of the corporate governance requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., including the requirements concerning independent directors.
Our corporate affairs are governed by the laws of Chile and our estatutos or bylaws, which function not only as our bylaws but also as our articles of incorporation. Under such laws, our shareholders may have fewer or less well-defined rights than they might have as shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a U.S. jurisdiction.
Pursuant to Law No. 19,705, enacted in December 2000, the controlling shareholders of an open stock corporation can only sell their controlling shares via a tender offer issued to all shareholders in which the bidder would have to buy all the offered shares up to the percentage determined by it, when the price paid is substantially higher than the market price (that is, when the price paid was higher than the average market price of a period starting 90 days before the proposed transaction and ending 30 days before such proposed transaction, plus 10%).
The market for our shares may be volatile and illiquid
The Chilean securities markets are substantially smaller, less liquid and more volatile than major securities markets in the United States. The Bolsa de Comercio de Santiago (the Santiago Stock Exchange), which is Chiles principal securities exchange, had a market capitalization of approximately US$341,755 million at December 31, 2010 and an average monthly trading volume of approximately US$4,617 million for 2010. The lack of liquidity owing, in part, to the relatively small size of the Chilean securities markets may have a material adverse effect on the trading prices of our shares. Because the market for our ADRs depends, in part, on investors perception of the value of our underlying shares, this lack of liquidity for our shares in Chile may have a significant effect on the trading prices of our ADRs.

History
In 1941, The Coca-Cola Company licensed a private Chilean company to produce Coca-Cola soft drinks in Chile, and production began in 1943. In 1946, the original licensee withdrew from the license arrangement, and a group of U.S. and Chilean investors formed Andina, which became The Coca-Cola Companys sole licensee in Chile. Between 1946 and the early 1980s, Andina developed the Chilean market for Coca-Cola soft drinks with a system of production and distribution facilities covering the central and southern regions of Chile. In the early 1980s, Andina sold its Coca-Cola licenses for most areas outside the Santiago metropolitan region and concentrated on the development of its soft drink business in the Santiago area. Although no longer the sole Coca-Cola bottler in Chile, Andina has been the principal manufacturer of Coca-Cola products in Chile for an uninterrupted period of 65 years.
In 1985, a majority of Andinas shares was acquired by four Chilean families who compromise Inversiones Freire Ltda. (Freire or the Controlling Shareholders). On December 31, 2010, the Controlling Shareholders owned 52.6% of our outstanding Series A shares, which have preferred voting rights and thereby control the Company; and 42.4% of our outstanding Series B shares, consequently the Controlling Shareholders of Andina hold a 47.5% ownership interest in the Company. Further information regarding our Controlling Shareholders can be found on page 54 of our 2010 Annual Report which is available at our website: www.embotelladoraandina.com.
Andina Brazil, our Brazilian subsidiary, began production and distribution of Coca-Cola soft drinks in Rio de Janeiro in 1942. In June 1994, we acquired 100% of the capital stock of Andina Brazil for approximately US$120 million and contributed an additional US$31 million to Andina Brazils capital immediately after the acquisition to repay certain indebtedness of Andina Brazil. In 2000, we purchased through Andina Brazil, from the Coffin Group, a Coca-Cola franchise license for a territory in Brazil comprising the State of Espírito Santo and part of the States of Rio de Janeiro and Minas Gerais (NVG), for US$74.5 million. NVG was merged into Andina Brazil in 2000, and its operations were integrated with Andina Brazil in 2001. In 2004, Andina Brazil entered into a franchise swap agreement with the Brazilian subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Company, Recofarma Indústria do Amazonas Ltda., for (1) an exchange of franchising rights, goods and other assets of Andina Brazil in the territory of Governador Valadares in the State of Minas Gerais, and (2) other franchise
rights of The Coca-Cola Company in the territories of Nova Iguaçu in the state of Rio de Janeiro, which was previously owned by Companhia Mineira de Refrescos S.A. In 2007 TCCC along with the Coca-Cola bottlers in Brazil create a Joint Venture, Mais Indústria de Alimentos, in order to enhance the non-carbonated business for the entire System in that country. Andina Brazil has a 6.16% ownership interest in Mais Industria de Alimentos. In 2008 The Coca-Cola System acquires Sucos del Valle do Brasil Ltda.; Andina Brazil holds a 6.16% ownership interest. This company commercializes the juice brand Sucos del Valle, leader in the juice segment in this market. In 2010 TCCC along with the Coca-Cola bottlers in Brazil acquired Leao Junior S.A. through a Joint Venture. Leao Junior S.A. among others, commercializes Matte Leao. This company has a consolidated presence and market share within the ready-to-drink teas category in Andina Brazils territory. Andina Brazil has an 18.20% ownership interest in Leao Junior S.A.
Production of Coca-Cola soft drinks in the Argentine territory began in 1943 with the start-up of operations in the province of Córdoba, Argentina, through Inti S.A.I.C., which we refer to as INTI. In July 1995, we (through Inversiones del Atlántico S.A., an investment company incorporated in Argentina), which we refer to as IASA, acquired a 59% interest in Edasa, the parent company of Rosario Refrescos S.A. and Mendoza Refrescos S.A. These entities were subsequently merged to create Rosario Mendoza Refrescos S.A., which we refer to as Romesa. In 1996 we acquired an additional 35.9% interest in Edasa, an additional 78.7% interest in Inti, a 100% interest in Cipet located in Buenos Aires (a PET plastic bottle and packaging business) and a 15.2% interest in Cican S.A. During 1997, the operations of Romesa were merged with INTI. In 1999, Edasa was merged into IASA. In 2000, IASA was merged into Inti, which in turn changed its corporate name to Embotelladora del Atlántico S.A. (EDASA). In 2002 Cipet merged into Edasa. During 2007 EDASAs ownership interest in Cican S.A. was sold to Femsa. Currently, Edasa is the Coca-Cola bottler in the provinces of Entre Rios, San Luis, San Juan, Mendoza, part of Santa Fe and part of Buenos Aires (San Nicolás y Ramallo.)
In 1998, Andina repurchased from The Coca-Cola Company its 49% stake in Vital. Concurrently with that transaction, The Coca-Cola Company purchased Vitals mineral water springs located at Chanqueahue, 80 miles south of Santiago. As part of the transaction, the Vital bottler agreement was replaced with a juice bottler agreement with Minute Maid International Inc., as well as a new mineral water bottling agreement with The Coca-Cola Company. In addition, the 1995 shareholders agreement between us and The Coca-Cola Company regarding ownership of Vital was terminated. The restructuring of the water and juice business in Chile enhanced our focus on the production of soft drinks, water and juice. During 2005, the production and packaging business of water, juice and non-carbonated beverages licensed by TCCC in Chile was restructured. Vital Aguas S.A., which we refer to as VASA, was created to develop the production and packaging businesses of Vital de Chanqueahue, mineral water and other water products. VASA is focused on developing juice and non-carbonated beverages. Andina, Embonor S.A. and Embotelladora Coca-Cola Polar S.A. own 56.5%, 26.4% and 17.1%, respectively, of the outstanding capital of VASA. During January of 2011, the juice business was restructured, allowing the incorporation of the other Coca-Cola bottlers in Chile to the property of Vital S.A. which changed its name to Vital Jugos S.A. Andina, Embonor S.A. and Embotelladora Coca-Cola Polar S.A. own 57%, 28% and 15%, respectively, of the outstanding capital of Vital Jugos S.A.
In Chile we participate in the business of producing PET bottles through a 50/50 joint venture we entered into with Cristalerías de Chile in the year 2001.
In 1996, our shareholders approved the Reclassification of Capital Stock, which we refer to as the Reclassification, of Andinas common stock into two new series of shares. Pursuant to the Reclassification, each outstanding share of Andinas common stock was replaced by one newly issued Series A share and one newly issued Series B share. The Series A and Series B shares are principally differentiated by their voting and economic rights: the holders of the Series A shares have full voting power and are entitled to elect six of seven regular and alternate members of the board of directors, and the holders of the Series B shares have no voting rights but for the right to elect one regular and one alternate member of the board of directors. In addition, holders of Series B shares are entitled to a dividend 10% greater than any dividend on Series A shares.
After the Reclassificaction, the Superintendence of Pension Fund Managers (Superintendencia de Administradores de Fondos de Pensiones) decreed that Chilean pension funds would not be permitted to acquire Series B Shares due to their limited voting rights. Later, during 2004, the Superintendence approved Series B shares as investment instruments for Chilean Pension funds. Series A shares have always been eligible as investment instruments.

Chile. As of December 31, 2010, Andinas sales force consisted of 208 salespeople (158 workers hired indefinitely and 50 hired on a fixed term basis) who call on most customers on average 1.4 times per week. For sales to major supermarkets, we employ 6 key account heads, 14 field supervisors and 543 third party promoters (469 full time and 74 part time) who are on-site supervisors who handle our products, monitor displays and track the pricing and marketing strategies of our competitors. Account executives are also assigned to major fast food outlets to work with the customer to develop sales on a consistent basis. Our distribution system for our soft drink products consisted of a group of 18 exclusive distributors, which are independent businesses that collectively deploy approximately 365 trucks (30 of which are company property), depending on seasonal demand. The 18 distributors collectively service all of our Chilean customers. In most cases, the distributor collects payment from the customer in cash or check. Where applicable, the driver also either collects empty returnable glass or PET bottles of the same type and quantity as the bottles being delivered, or collects cash deposits for the net returnable bottles delivered. This task is particularly significant in the Chilean territory where returnable containers accounted for approximately 61% of total soft drinks volume in 2010. Certain important customers (such as supermarkets), maintain accounts receivables with us, which are settled on average every 46 days after invoices are issued. On average, accounts receivable from all clients are liquidated on a 20-day term.
Brazil. As of December 31, 2010, Andina Brazils sales force in Brazil consisted of an average of 595 salespeople (383 commercial representatives and 212 supermarket promoters) divided into three major groups responsible for: (i) sales to key accounts and fast food chains (who purchase soft drinks in post-mix dispensers, in cans and bottles), (ii) sales to supermarkets (consisting of bottle and can sales) and (iii) all other traditional customers. Each of these three groups also manages sales of the other beverages (beer, water, juice, energy drinks and ready-to-drink tea) distributed by Andina Brazil. In Brazil, we generally distribute Coca-Cola soft drinks through a distribution system that includes: (i) trucks operated by independent distributors pursuant to exclusive distribution arrangements with us and (ii) trucks operated by independent transport companies on a non-exclusive basis. In 2010, 10% were distributed by exclusive distributors, and 90% by independent transport companies. Distribution of all of Andina Brazils beverages takes place from distribution centers and production facilities. In 2010, approximately 19% of Andina Brazil soft drink sales were paid for in cash at the time of delivery, 19% were paid by check to be cashed between one and ten days after delivery and 62% were paid between 10 and 45 days after delivery by invoice.
Argentina. As of December 31, 2010, our sales force in Argentina consisted of 410 employees, grouped in salespeople, merchandisers, and Contact Center personnel. In 2010, 72% of Edasas Coca-Cola soft drinks were distributed by direct distribution (trucking) and 28% by wholesale distribution. All of the direct distribution is done by a group of independent transport companies (each with three or more trucks). In 2010, approximately 80% of Edasas soft drink sales were paid for in cash and 20% were credit sales.
Competition
We face intense competition throughout the franchise territories principally from bottlers of competing soft drink brands. See Item 3. Key Information Risk Factors Risks Related to our Company Our business is highly competitive and subject to price competition which may adversely affect our net profits and margins.
Chile. The soft drink segment of the Chilean beverage industry is highly competitive. The most important areas of competition are product image, pricing, advertising, ability to deliver product in popular bottle sizes, distribution capacity, and the amount of returnable bottles held by retailers or by consumers. Returnable bottles can be exchanged at the time of new purchases in lieu of paying a bottle deposit, thereby decreasing the purchase price. Our main competitor in the Chilean franchise territory is Embotelladora Chilenas Unidas or ECUSA, a subsidiary of Compañía Cervecerías Unidas S.A. or CCU, the major brewer in Chile. ECUSA produces and distributes Pepsi-Cola products and its own brands (soft drinks and bottled water).
Brazil. The soft drink segment of the Brazilian beverage industry is highly competitive. The most important areas of competition are product image, pricing, advertising and distribution capacity (including the number and location of sales outlets). According to A.C. Nielsen, our main soft drink competitor in the Brazilian territory is American Beverage Company or Ambev, the largest beer producer and distributor in Brazil and also produces soft drinks, including Pepsi-Cola products.
Argentina. The soft drink segment of the Argentine beverage industry is highly competitive. The most important areas of competition are product image, pricing, advertising, ability to produce bottles in popular sizes and distribution capacity. The greatest competitor is Ambev, the Latin American unit of the largest brewery group of the world (Inbev) that produces and commercializes Pepsi-Cola products. As far as B-brands, the most significant are: Talca, Pritty and Naranpol representing over 78% of the volume for B-brands. Productora Alimentaria S.A. is dedicated to the production, commercialization, and distribution of juices, soft drinks, appetizers and mass consumption products; and among others it also commercializes, the Naranpol brand with a strong market presence in the coast of Argentina. Pritty S.A., a company established in the city of Córdoba, is dedicated to the production and sale of beverages without alcohol; it commercializes Pritty, Doble Cola, Saldán, Switty, Rafting, Hook and Magna. O.E.S.A., a preceding Pepsi bottler in the province of Mendoza, produces and commercializes soft drinks and soda water under the brand Talca.
Based on reports by A.C. Nielsen, we estimate that in 2010, our average soft drink market share within our franchise territories reached 69.1%, 57.3%, and 55.3% for Chile, Brazil, and Argentina, respectively.
The following table presents the market share of our main competitors in Chile, Brazil and Argentina for the periods indicated:

Seasonality
Each of our lines of business is seasonal. Most of our beverage products have their highest sales volumes during the South American summer (October through March), with the exception of nectar products, which have a higher sales volume during the South American winter (April through September). Our Chilean and Argentine operations generally experience higher levels of seasonal price fluctuations than our Brazilian operations.

All raw materials, especially water, are subjected to continuous quality control.
ChileRaw Materials. We purchase concentrate at prices established by TCCC. We mainly purchase sugar from Industria Azucarera Nacional S.A., IANSA, the only producer of sugar in Chile, although we may purchase sugar in the international market when prices are favorable, and have done so on occasion. Chilean sugar prices are subject to a price band established by the Chilean government on an annual basis. We obtain carbon dioxide gas from AGA Chile S.A.

Marketing
We and TCCC jointly promote and market Coca-Cola soft drinks in our franchise territories, in accordance with the terms of our respective Bottler Agreements. During 2010, we paid approximately 50% of the advertising and promotional expenses incurred by TCCC in our franchise territories. Nearly all media advertising and promotional materials for Coca-Cola soft drinks are produced and distributed by TCCC . See Item 4. Information on the Company Bottler Agreements.
Channel Marketing. In order to provide more dynamic and specialized marketing of our products, our strategy is to divide our market into distribution channels. Our principal channels are small retailers, on-premise consumption such as restaurants and bars, supermarkets and third party distributors. Presence in these channels entails a comprehensive and detailed analysis of the purchasing patterns and preferences of various groups of soft drink consumers in each type of location or distribution channel. In response to this analysis, we seek to tailor our product, price, packaging and distribution strategies to meet the particular needs of and exploit the potential of each channel.
We believe that the implementation of our channel marketing strategy also enables us to respond to competitive initiatives with channel-specific responses as opposed to market-wide responses. This focused response capability isolates the effects of competitive pressure in a specific channel, thereby avoiding costlier market-wide responses. Our channel marketing activities are facilitated by our management information systems. We have invested significantly in creating such systems, including providing hand-held computer and data gathering equipment to support the gathering of product, consumer and delivery information required to implement our channel marketing strategies effectively for most of our sales routes in Chile, Brazil and Argentina. We will continue investing to increase pre-sale coverage in our territories.
Our consolidated total advertising expenditures in 2010 were Ch$28,662 million.
Advertising
We advertise in all major communications media. We focus our advertising efforts on increasing brand recognition by consumers and improving our customer relations. National advertising campaigns are designed and proposed by TCCC s local affiliates, with our input at the local or regional level.

(1)Reflects the sale of Vital Jugos and Vital Aguas to bottlers of The Coca-Cola Company.
(2)Includes sales to related companies which are eliminated upon consolidation.
Marketing. Marketing and promotional programs, including television, radio and print advertising, point-of-sale advertising, sales promotions and entertainment are developed by TCCC for all Vital Jugos and Vital Aguas products.
Customers and Distribution. Juices and waters throughout Chile are distributed by means of distribution agreements between TCCC and the Coca-Cola bottlers in Chile. In 2010, Andina distributed approximately 54% of Vitals products, and the other two Coca-Cola bottlers in Chile distributed an aggregate of 46%. Each Coca-Cola bottler in Chile distributes Vital and Vital Aguas products in its respective franchise territory. Under Vital Jugos and Vital Aguas distribution agreements, each bottler has the exclusive right to distribute waters and juices in its territory.
Our management believes that our distribution arrangements for waters and juices provide an effective means of distributing those products throughout Chile using the extensive distribution system of the Coca-Cola bottlers. We have a good working relationship with the Coca-Cola bottlers that distribute waters and juices. If any Coca-Cola bottler were to cease distribution, our management believes it could arrange alternative distribution arrangements, but the transition to the new arrangements could involve significant delays in distributing products and would involve additional costs and an initial reduction in sales.
Competition. Vital Aguas principal competitor regarding water is CCU with the Cachantún brand. Additionally there are low priced brands (B-brands) in the water segment in Chile. Vital S.A.s principal competitors regarding juices are, Watts-CCU, Corpora Tres Montes and three of the leading dairy producers in Chile: Soprole S.A., Nestlé Chile S.A. and Loncoleche S.A., who is also a subsidiary of Watts S.A. During 2006, the largest Chilean brewery CCU acquires from Watts S.A. a 50% ownership interest of the juice brands in Chile, creating a joint venture for the management of this business area. The Chilean market for fruit-flavored beverages and waters also includes low-cost, lower-quality fruit juice concentrates and artificially flavored powdered beverage mixes. We do not consider these products to compete with our waters and juices business because we believe that these products are of lower quality and value.
Based on reports by A.C. Nielsen, we estimate that in 2010, our market share within our Chilean franchise territories reached 34.8% for the juice segment and 35.6% for waters.
Raw material for Juices. The principal raw materials used by Vital S.A. in the production of juices and as a percentage of total raw material costs, are sweeteners 13.5%, fruit pulp and juices 11.2%, flavors, aromas and citric acid 17.9%, containers 25.7% and wrapping material 5.5%, all of which during 2010 accounted for 80.2% of total costs for sales of juice, including packaging.
Raw materials for Waters: The principal raw materials used by Vital Aguas S.A. in the production of mineral water and purified unflavored and purified flavored water and as a percentage of total raw material costs are: Non-returnable PET packaging 41.6%, mineral water, flavor, aromas, sweeteners and citric acid 25.1%, packaging material 5.2%, caps 5.1% and carbonation 0.9%, all of which during 2010 accounted for 80.2% of total costs for sales of water, including packaging.
Beer, Juices and Waters in Brazil
Sales. In 2010, net sales of beer, juices, waters, tea based beverages, isotonics and energy drinks in Brazil were Ch$56,958 million, representing 6,4% of our consolidated net sales.
Andina Brazil uses its distribution system to distribute beer in the Brazilian territory. Andina Brazil started distributing beer in the 1980s as a result of the acquisition of Kaiser by a consortium of Coca-Cola bottlers (including Andina Brazil) in Brazil. In March 2002, the Canadian brewing company Molson Inc. acquired Cervejarias Kaiser S.A. (Kaiser). In 2006, Femsa acquired from Molson the controlling ownership interest over Kaiser y later in 2010 Heineken acquired the controlling interest of Femsas beer operation. Andina Brazil buys beer from Heineken at a price determined by Heineken and sells it to its customers with a fixed margin. In the case of certain discount sales that have been approved by Heineken, Heineken shares between 50% and 100% of the cost of such discounts. In 2010, Andina Brazils net sales of beer were Ch$15,641 million, of which Bavaria brand beer accounted for 47.8%, Heineken for 19.2%, Kaiser for 18%, Sol for 12.2%, and all the other brands accounted for 0.9% of net sales.
Competition. In the beer sector, Andina Brazils main competitor is Ambev that during 2010 had a very dominant position in the Brazilian market.
The Distribution Agreements. TCCC and the Brazilian Association of Coca-Cola Manufacturers entered into an agreement regarding the distribution through the Coca-Cola System of beer produced and imported by Heineken. The agreements were signed May 30, 2003, and are renewable for a period of 20 years.
Andina Brazil is not allowed to produce, bottle, sell or obtain any interest in any bottled or tap beer under any other label or in any bottle or packaging that could be confused with brand beers, except as may be mutually agreed in writing between Andina Brazil and Heineken.
Under the terms of the distribution agreement, Heineken undertakes all responsibility for planning and managing advertising, marketing and promotional activities related to beer. Andina Brazil, however, is free to undertake marketing or promotional activities with Heineken´s prior approval. The parties have agreed to assume joint responsibility for the costs of certain promotional activities (radio or television) and for certain outdoor events which take place in the Rio de Janeiro and Espirito Santo region. Andina Brazil has agreed to devote at least 2.6% of its sales net of taxes of Heineken products to such promotional activities or events.
Andina Brazil is prohibited from assigning, transferring, or otherwise encumbering the Heineken distribution agreement or any interest therein for the benefit of third parties without prior written consent from Heineken may terminate the distribution agreement immediately in the event that Andina Brazil (i) declares bankruptcy, is made a party to bankruptcy proceedings or is placed under judicial administration, (ii) is dissolved or liquidated or its assets are nationalized, expropriated, attached or intervened, (iii) undergoes a change of business or of control, (iv) ceases to be a franchisee of TCCC or (v) causes a material breach of the Heineken distribution agreement. In addition, Heineken may terminate the Heineken distribution agreement one year after delivery of notice that Andina Brazil is not complying with the terms thereof. Andina Brazil may terminate the Heineken distribution agreement in the event of a material breach thereof by Heineken.
3. PET Packaging
Overview and Background
We produce PET bottles in both returnable and non-returnable formats. As a returnable packaging material, PET has advantages compared to glass because it is lightweight, difficult to break, transparent and easily recyclable. On average, returnable PET bottles can be used up to 12 times. Non-returnable PET bottles also are produced in various sizes and are used by a variety of soft drink producers and, in Chile, by producers of edible oil products, wine and personal hygiene products In 2010, the Edasa Packaging Division was one of the largest manufacturers of PET products in Argentina. In 2010,Andina Brazil purchased 90% of its PET preforms from Braspla and 10% from Amcor.
Sales. In 2010, the Edasa Packaging Division had net sales of Ch$20,365 million with sales to Edasa Soft Drinks Division amounting to Ch$12,244 million. The Edasa Packaging Division also sold PET bottles to third parties accounting for approximately Ch$8,121 million.
Competition. We are suppliers of returnable and non-returnable PET bottles for Coca-Cola bottlers in Argentina and Chile. According to the pre-existing agreements between TCCC and the other Coca-Cola bottlers within South America, we must obtain the consent and assistance of TCCC to expand our sales of returnable PET bottles to said bottlers.
In Chile, we do not have any principal competitors in the nonreturnable PET bottles market for oils, wines and personal hygiene. There are a few producers of non-returnable PET bottles in Chile who are significantly smaller than CMF. Plasco S.A., the second Chilean manufacturer of non-returnable PET bottles, does not compete with us because it is the exclusive supplier of PET bottles for ECUSA. (The Chilean Pepsi bottler).
In Argentina, we compete principally with Alpla S.A. and Amcor. The Edasa Packaging Division is the supplier of returnable PET bottles to all Coca-Cola bottlers in Argentina.
4. Patents and Licenses
The Company has entered into Bottler Agreements with TCCC by which it has the license to produce and distribute Coca-Cola brand products within its operating franchise territories in Chile, Brazil and Argentina. The Companys operations are highly dependent on maintaining and renewing the Bottler Agreements which provide for the production and distribution of Coca-Cola brand products.
Bottler Agreements
The Bottler Agreements are international standard contracts TCCC enters into with bottlers outside the United States for the sale of concentrates and beverage basis for certain Coca-Cola soft drinks and non-soft drink beverages.
Bottler Agreements are renewable upon request by the bottler and at the sole discretion of TCCC. We cannot assure you that the Bottler Agreements will be renewed upon their expiration, and even if they are renewed.
The Bottler Agreements provide that we will purchase our entire requirement of concentrates and beverage basis for Coca-Cola soft drinks and other Coca-Cola beverages from The Coca-Cola Company and other authorized suppliers. Although under the Bottler Agreements TCCC, in its sole discretion, may set the price of concentrates and beverage basis, among other terms, we set the price of products sold to retailers at our discretion, subject only to certain price restraints.
We are the sole producer of Coca-Cola soft drinks and other Coca-Cola beverages in our franchise territories. Although this right is not exclusive, TCCC has never authorized any other entity to produce or distribute Coca-Cola soft drinks or other Coca-Cola beverages in such territories, although we cannot assure you that in the future it will not do so. In the case of post-mix soft drinks, the Bottler Agreements explicitly establish such non-exclusive rights.
The Bottler Agreements include an acknowledgment by us that TCCC is the sole owner of the trademarks that identify the Coca-Cola soft drinks and other Coca-Cola beverages and of any secret formula used in concentrates.
All distribution must be in authorized containers. TCCC has the right to approve, at its sole discretion, any and all kinds of packages and containers for beverages, including their size, shape and any of their attributes. TCCC has the authority at its sole discretion to redesign or discontinue any package of any of the Coca-Cola products, subject to certain limitations, so long as Coca-Cola soft drinks and other Coca-Cola beverages are not all discontinued at the same time. We are prohibited from producing or handling any other beverage products, other than those of TCCC or other products or packages that would imitate, infringe or cause confusion with the products, trade dress, containers or trademarks of TCCC, or from acquiring or holding an interest in a party that engages in such activities. The Bottler Agreements also impose restrictions concerning the use of certain trademarks, authorized containers, packaging and labeling of TCCC and prohibit bottlers from distributing Coca-Cola soft drinks or other Coca-Cola beverages outside their designated territories.
The Bottler Agreements require us to maintain adequate production and distribution facilities; inventories of bottles, caps, boxes, cartons and other exterior packaging or materials; to undertake adequate quality control measures prescribed by TCCC; to develop, stimulate, and fully satisfy the demand for Coca-Cola soft drinks and other Coca-Cola beverages and to use all approved means, and spend such funds on advertising and other forms of marketing, as may be reasonably required to meet that objective; and to maintain such sound financial capacity as may be reasonably necessary to assure performance by us and our affiliates of our obligations to TCCC. All Bottler Agreements require us annually to submit our business plans for such franchise territories to TCCC, including without limitation, marketing, management and promotional and advertising plans for the following year.
TCCC has no obligation to contribute to our expenditures derived from advertising and marketing, but it may, at its discretion, contribute to such expenditures and undertake independent advertising and marketing activities, as well as cooperative advertising and sales promotion that would require our cooperation and support. In each of the franchise territories, TCCC has been contributing approximately 50% of advertising and marketing expenses, but no assurances can be given that equivalent contributions will be made in the future.
Each bottler is prohibited from, directly or indirectly, assigning, transferring or pledging its Bottler Agreement, or any interest therein, whether voluntarily, involuntarily or by operation of law, without the consent of TCCC, and each Bottler Agreement is subject to termination by TCCC in the event of default by us. Moreover, the bottler may not undergo a material change of ownership or control without the consent of TCCC.
TCCC may terminate a Bottler Agreement immediately, by written notice to the bottler, in the event that, inter alia, (i) the bottler suspends payments to creditors, declares bankruptcy, is declared bankrupt, is expropriated or nationalized, is liquidated, dissolved, changes its legal structure, or pledges or mortgages its assets; (ii) the bottler does not comply with instructions and standards established by TCCC relating to the production of its authorized soft drink products; (iii) the bottler ceases to be controlled by its controlling shareholders; or (iv) the terms of the Bottler Agreement come to violate applicable law.
Either party to any Bottler Agreement may, with 60 days notice thereof to the other party, terminate the Bottler Agreement in the event of non-compliance by the other party with the terms thereof so long as the party in non-compliance has not remedied such non-compliance during this period. In addition, if a bottler does not wish to pay the required price for concentrate for any Coca-Cola products, it must notify TCCC within 30 days of receipt of The Coca-Cola Companys new prices. In the case of any Coca-Cola soft drink or other Coca-Cola beverages other than Coca-Cola concentrate, the franchise regarding such product shall be deemed automatically canceled three months after TCCC s receipt of the bottlers notice of refusal. In the case of Coca-Cola concentrate, the Bottler Agreements shall be deemed terminated three months after TCCCs receipt of the bottlers notice of refusal. TCCC may also terminate the Bottler Agreements if the bottler or any individual or legal entity that controls, owns a majority share in or directly or indirectly influences the management of the bottler, engages in the production of any non-Coca-Cola beverage, whether through direct ownership of such operations or through control or administration thereof, provided that, upon request, the bottler shall be given six months to remedy such situation.

PET Agreements
On June 29, 2001, we and Cristalerías de Chile S.A. signed a series of contracts forming a joint venture for the development of a PET production facility in Chile through the formation of Envases CMF S.A. We contributed the assets necessary to further the development of the joint venture. Our subsidiary Andina Inversiones Societarias S.A. holds a 50% stake in the joint venture while Cristalerías de Chile S.A. retains the other 50% interest.
5. Regulation
General
We are subject to the full range of government regulations generally applicable to companies engaged in business in our franchise territories, including but not limited to labor, social security, public health, consumer protection, environmental, sanitation, employee safety, securities and anti-trust laws. Currently, no material legal or administrative proceedings are pending against us with respect to any regulatory matter in any of our franchise territories except those listed as such in Item 8. Financial InformationLegal Proceedings. We believe, to the best of our knowledge that we are in compliance in all material respects with applicable statutory and administrative regulations relating to our business in each of our franchise territories.
Chile. There are no special licenses or permits required to manufacture and distribute soft drinks and juices in the Chilean territory. Food and beverage producers in Chile, however, must obtain authorization from (and their activities are subject to supervision by) the Chilean Environmental Protection Services (Servicio Sanitario Metropolitano del Ambiente), which inspects production facilities and takes liquid samples for analysis on a regular basis. Our permit from the Chilean Environmental Protection Authority was obtained on January 8, 1992 and is in effect indefinitely. In addition, production and distribution of mineral water is subject to special regulations such that mineral water may be drawn only from sources designated for such purpose by presidential decree. Certification of compliance with such decree is provided by the National Health Service, the Undersecretarys Office of the Ministry of Health (Servicio de Salud Metropolitano del Ambiente). Our mineral water production facilities have received the required certification.
Brazil. Labor laws, in addition to mandating employee benefits, include regulations to ensure sanitary and safe working conditions in our production facilities located in Brazil. Food and beverage producers in Brazil must register their products with and receive a ten-year permit from the Ministry of Agriculture and Provisioning and the Ministry of Health, which oversees diet products. Our permits from said Ministries are valid and in force for a term of ten years for each product we produce. Although we cannot assure you that they will be renewed, we have not experienced any material difficulties in renewing our permits in the past nor do we expect to experience any difficulties in the future. The Ministries do not regularly inspect facilities but they do send inspectors to investigate any complaints it receives.
Argentina. While most laws applicable to Edasa are enforced at the federal level, some, such as sanitary and environmental regulations, are primarily enforced by provincial and municipal governments. There are no licenses or permits required for the manufacture or distribution of soft drinks in the Argentine territory. However, our production facilities are subject to registration with federal and provincial authorities and to supervision by municipal health agencies, which certify compliance with applicable laws.
Environmental Matters
It is our policy to conduct environmentally sound operations on a basis consistent with applicable laws and with criteria established by TCCC. Although regulation of matters relating to the protection of the environment is not as well-developed in the franchise territories as in the United States and other industrialized countries, we expect that additional laws and
regulations may be enacted in the future with respect to environmental matters that may impose additional restrictions on us which could materially or adversely affect our results of operations in the future. There are no material legal or administrative proceedings pending against us in any of the franchise territories with respect to environmental matters, and we believe that, to the best of our knowledge, we are in compliance in all material respects with all environmental regulations applicable to us.
Chile. The Chilean government has several regulations governing environmental matters relating to our operations. For instance, Law 3,133 regulates discharge of residual industrial waste, and the Sanitary Code contains provisions relating to liquid and solid waste disposal, basic environmental conditions in the workplace, and the protection of water for human consumption. In 1993, the Chilean government published regulations that updated the provisions of Law 3,133. These regulations place limits on the disposal of harmful substances which may be hazardous to water used in irrigation or water for consumption by people or animals without prior authorization from the Ministry of Public Works and a favorable determination from the Superintendence of Sanitary Services. The regulations also mandate governmental approval of any systems to treat or discharge liquid industrial waste (regulated by Supreme Decree 90 for discharges to open courses and by Supreme Decree 609 for discharges to sewage collectors). In 1996, we installed a liquid industrial waste treatment plant to comply with the Chilean liquid waste emissions standards, in effect since 1998. As of May of 2006, the first stages of liquid industrial waste treatment are done at our facilities and then it is completed at La Farfana. Currently there is an outsourcing agreement with the company Ecoriles for the treatment of liquid industrial waste.
Law 19,300, passed in March 1994, addresses general environmental concerns that may be applicable to our activities and which, if applicable, would require us to hire independent experts to conduct environmental impact studies or declarations of any future projects or activities that could be impacted by the regulations of Law 19,300. This Law creates the National Commission on the Environment, which is supported by regional commissions to supervise environmental impact studies and declarations for all new projects, to enforce the regulations of Law 19,300 and to grant discretionary power to regulators. There can be no assurance that future legislative regulatory developments will not impose further restrictions that would be material to our operations in Chile. We believe that, to the best of our knowledge we are in compliance with all material aspects of the Chilean environmental regulations.
In 2006 TCCC issued its audit regarding Certifications of Quality, Security and Environment Systems known as PHASE 3, and we have become the first production facility in Chile to receive this certification with the maximum qualifications.. These certifications were revalidated according to the new KORE (Coca-Cola Requirements) dispositions beginning August 2010.
During 2005, our production facility in Chile , became the first plant in Latin America to achieve the four Quality System Certifications, Food Safety and Quality Management System (HACCP-Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point), Environment (ISO 14001:2004), Security and Occupational Health (OHSAS 18001:1999) and Quality (ISO 9001:2000). Also in 2005 it achieves the National Award for Quality from Chilecalidad. In September of 2007 and 2010 these certifications were extended for another 3 years. Additionally during December 2010 we achieved certification for Food Safety Management (ISO 22001)
The distribution centers also count with the following certifications: Food Safety and Quality Management System (HACCP) since 2007 and Security and Occupational Health (OHSAS 18001:2008) since June 2009, both valid for a period of 3 years.
In 2003, the production facilities of Rengo and Vital were certified under the Codex Alimentarius and the Chilean regulation 2861:2004 for their production processes. These certifications were renewed in 2006. As of December 31, 2009 these production facilities held the following certifications: (i) Food Safety and Quality Management (HACCP); (ii) Quality Management (ISO 9001); (iii) Environment Management (ISO 14001); (iv) Security and Occupational Health (ISO 18000); and (v) Food Safety Management under ISO 22001 regulations and Best Practices of Food Manufacturing under PAS 220.
Brazil. Our Brazilian operations are subject to several environmental laws, none of which currently impose substantial restrictions on us. The Brazilian Constitution establishes the broad guidelines for the new treatment of environmental concerns, dedicating an entire chapter (Chapter VI, Article 225) to the protection of the environment, along with several other articles related to the environmental law and urban law. Environmental issues are regulated at the federal, state and municipal levels. The Brazilian Constitution empowers the public authorities to develop regulations designed to preserve and restore the environment and to control industrial processes that affect human life. Violations of these regulations are subject to criminal, civil and administrative penalties.
In addition, Law No. 6,938 of 1981, known as the Brazilian Environmental Policy, introduced an entirely different environmental regime by which no environmental damage is exempt from coverage. The legislation is based on the idea that even a polluting waste tolerated under the established standards could cause environmental damage, and therefore subjects the party causing such damage to payment of an indemnity. Moreover, as mentioned above, activities damaging to the environment lead to criminal and administrative penalties, provided for in Law 9,605 of 1998 or the Environmental Crimes Act.
Numerous governmental bodies have jurisdiction over environmental matters. At the federal level, the Ministério do Meio Ambiente (Brazilian Ministry of Environment) and the Conselho Nacional do Meio-Ambiente or CONAMA dictate environmental policy, including, without limitation, initiating environmental improvement projects, establishing a system of fines and administrative penalties and reaching agreements on environmental matters with offending industries. The Instituto Brasileiro do Meio Ambiente e dos Recursos Naturais Renováveis or IBAMA enforces environmental regulations set by CONAMA. In addition, various federal authorities have jurisdiction over specific industrial sectors, but none of these currently affect us. Finally, various state and local authorities regulate environmental matters in the Brazilian territory including the Fundação Estadual de Engenharia do Meio-Ambiente or FEEMA, the principal environmental authority in Rio de Janeiro and the Instituto Estadual de Medio Ambiente e Recursos Hídricos or IEMA, the principal environmental authority in Espírito Santo. FEEMA and IEMA periodically inspect industrial sites and test liquid waste for contamination. We believe to the best of our knowledge that we are in compliance in all material respects with the standards established by all the governmental authorities applicable to our operations in Brazil. We cannot assure you, however, that additional regulations will not be enacted in the future, and that such restrictions would not have a material adverse effect on our results or operations. The operation in Brazil as that of Chile counts with all certifications mentioned in terms of Quality, Environment and Occupational Health and Safety and those associated with Food Safety and Best Practices in Food Processing.
Argentina. The Argentine Constitution, as amended in 1994, allows any individual who believes a third party may be damaging the environment to initiate an action against it. No such action has ever been instituted against us, but we cannot assure you that an action will not be brought in the future. Though provincial governments have primary regulatory authority over environmental matters, municipal and federal authorities are also competent to enact decrees and laws on environmental issues. Thus, municipalities are competent on local environmental matters, such as waste management, while the federal government regulates inter-province environmental issues, such as transport of hazardous waste or environmental matters covered by international treaties.
In 2002, the National Congress approved federal Law No. 25,612, Gestión Integral de Residuos Industriales y de Actividades de Servicios (Integral Management of Industrial Residues and Service Activities) and Law No. 25,675, Ley General del Ambiente (General Environmental Law) establishing minimum guidelines for the protection of the sustainable environmental management and the protection of biodiversity, applicable throughout Argentina. The law establishes the purposes, principles and instruments of the national environmental policy, the concept of minimum guidelines, the judicial competence and the rules governing environmental education and information, citizens participation and self-management, among other provisions.
Provincial governments within the Argentine territory have enacted laws establishing a framework for the preservation of the environment. Provincial laws that are applicable to industrial facilities at EDASA, among others are Law No. 7,343 of the Province of Córdoba, and Law No. 11,459 of the Province of Buenos Aires. These laws contain principles on environmental policy and management, as well as rules on environmental impact assessment. They also give certain agencies competence in environmental issues.
Almost all provinces as well as many municipalities have established rules regarding the use of water, the sewage system and the disposal of liquids into underground flows of water or rivers. There are currently no claims pending against us on this matter. The violation of these rules usually results in fines.
During October of 2009, the National Award for Quality Foundation that promotes excellence in the development of processes and products in that country, granted us the 2009 National Award for Quality, which was handed by the president of Argentina, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner. In the operation in Argentina we maintain all certifications mentioned for Chile in addition to the Excellence Level Award of TCCC achieved in December 2010 by EDASA, due to the constant importance given to the excellence in the development of processes, products and activities.

Total installed annual production capacity assumes production of the mix of products and containers produced in 2010.
In 2010, we continued to modernize and renovate our manufacturing facilities in order to maximize efficiency and productivity; we also made significant improvements to our auxiliary services and complementary processes such as water treatment plants and effluent treatment stations. At present, we estimate we have the capacity in each of the franchise territories to meet consumer demand for each product format. Because bottling is a seasonal business with significantly higher demand during the South American summer and because soft drinks are perishable, it is necessary for bottlers to carry significant over-capacity in order to meet the substantially greater seasonal demand. We assure the quality of our products through worldwide class practices and procedures maintaining quality control laboratories and structures in each production facility where raw materials are tested and where we analyze samples of our products.
As of December 31, 2010, we had total installed annual production capacity, including soft drinks, fruit juices, and water, of 576 million unit cases. Our primary facilities include:
· through Embotelladora Andina, in the Chilean territory, one soft drink production facility with eight production lines with total installed annual capacity of 157 million unit cases (27.3% of our total installed annual capacity);
· through Vital Jugos in the Chilean territory, one fruit juice production facility, with six production lines, with total installed annual capacity of 21 million unit cases (3.6% of our total installed annual capacity);
· through Vital Aguas in the Chilean territory, one mineral water production facility, with four production lines, with total installed annual capacity of 28 million unit cases (4.9% of our total installed annual capacity);
· through Rio de Janeiro Refrescos in the Brazilian territory, two soft drink production facilities with eleven production lines with total installed annual capacity of 222 million unit cases (38.5% of our total installed annual capacity); and
· through Embotelladora del Atlántico in the Argentine territory, one soft drink production facility with seven production lines with a total installed annual capacity of 144 million unit cases (25.0% of our total installed annual capacity); and one production facility for bottles and preforms that covers the needs of the Coca-Cola system in that country and one facility for the production of juices with one production line that covers the needs of our franchise with a total installed annual capacity of 4 million unit cases (0.7% of our total installed annual capacity).

ITEM 5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS
Basis of Presentation
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Consolidated Financial Statements, including the notes thereto.
Theses Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS issued by the IASB.
These Financial Statements reflect the consolidated financial position of Embotelladora Andina. S.A. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010, 2009 and January 1, 2009 as well as the operating results, changes in shareholders equity and cash flows for the periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, all of which were approved by the Board of Directors on June 28, 2011.
IFRS N° 1 provides for certain exemptions from full retrospective application of IFRS in the opening balance sheet. See Note 3 to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company for a discussion of the exceptions elected by the Company.
These Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared based on the accounting records of the parent company and the entities that form part of the Company. Each entity prepares its Financial Statements in accordance to accounting principles of each country; therefore we have incorporated all necessary adjustments and restatements upon consolidation of figures in order to standardize all accounting principles and criterion to adjust them to IFRS.
Factors Affecting Comparability
During 2010, there were no changes in the application of IFRS as compared to the previous year that could materially affect the comparability of the financial statements.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Discussion of critical accounting estimates
In the ordinary course of business, we have made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of our results of operations and financial position in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS. We cannot assure you that actual results will not differ from those estimates. We believe that the following discussion addresses our most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require managements most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates and assumptions about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. For a more detailed discussion of accounting policies significant to our operations, please see Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Allowance for doubtful accounts
We evaluate the collectability of our trade accounts receivable based on a number of factors. In circumstances where we are aware of a specific customers inability to meet its financial obligations to us, a specific reserve for bad debts is estimated and recorded which reduces the recognized receivable to the estimated amount we believe will ultimately be collected. In addition to specific identification of potential bad customer debts, bad debt charges are recorded based on, among other factors, our recent loss history and an overall assessment of past due trade accounts receivable outstanding. As of December 31, 2010, our accounts receivable balance was Ch$105,059 million, net of allowances for doubtful accounts of Ch$1,226 million. Historically, on a consolidated basis, doubtful accounts have averaged less than 1% of consolidated net sales.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost and is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of such assets. Changes in circumstances such as technological advances, changes to our business model or changes in our capital strategy could result in the actual useful lives differing from our estimates. In those cases where we determine that the useful life of property, plant and equipment should be shortened, we depreciate the net book value in excess of the estimated salvage value over its revised remaining useful life. Factors such as changes in the planned use of manufacturing equipment, vending equipment, transportation equipment or software could result in shortened useful lives. We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of any such asset may not be recoverable. The estimate of future cash flows is based upon, among other things, certain assumptions about expected future operating performance. Our estimates of undiscounted cash flows may differ from actual cash flows due to, among other things, technological changes, economic conditions and changes to our business model or changes in operating performance. If the sum of the projected undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest) is less than the carrying value of the asset, the asset will be written down to its estimated fair value.
Goodwill Impairment losses
The Company proves on a yearly basis if the goodwill has suffered impairment losses. The recoverable amounts of cash generating units have been determined based on fair-value calculations. Key variables that management calculates include sales volume, prices, marketing expenses and other economic factors. The estimation of these variables requires significant discernment on the part of management, since these variables carry inherent uncertainties; however the assumptions used are consistent with our internal planning, and therefore, management periodically evaluates and updates these estimates, based on the conditions affecting these variables. If assets are considered to have suffered impairment losses, they will have a write off at an estimated fair value or future recovery value in accordance with discounted cash flows. Free cash flows from Brazil and Argentina are discounted at a rate of 15% and generated a higher value than their respective assets, including added value of the Brazilian and Argentine subsidiaries.
Liability for deposits for bottles and cases
We have a liability for deposits received for bottles and cases provided to our customers and distributors. The liability represents the deposit value that we may be required to remit upon receipt from the customer or distributor of the bottles and cases, in good condition, along with the original invoice. The liability is not subject to price level restatements as per current agreements with customers and distributors. We estimate the liability for deposits based on an periodic inventory of bottles sold to customers and distributors, estimates of bottles in circulation and a weighted average historical deposit value per bottle or case. Additionally, because the amount of bottles and cases has generally increased over time, the liability is presented as a long-term liability. Significant management judgment is involved in estimating the number of bottles in circulation, the deposit value that could be subject to redemption and the timing of disbursements related to this liability.

Consolidated Sales Volume amounted to 489.2 million unit cases in 2010, an increase of 6.7%. Soft Drinks grew 4.4%, while the other categories of, Juices, Waters, and Beer together increased by 31.1%. Particularly, the Waters segment recorded a significant 43.9% increase. Net Sales amounted to Ch$888.714 million, a 13.1% increase mainly explained by the increase of volume and prices in the three countries in addition to the positive effect upon translation of figures from Brazil and negative in the case of Argentina. Net sales of Coca-Cola soft drinks represented 85.4% of total Consolidated Net Sales.
In Chile, Sales Volume amounted to 161.5 million unit cases a 6.0% growth. This growth was a result of increased soft drink volumes (+3.6%) as well as an increase in the Juices and Waters segment (+20.4%). Net Sales amounted to Ch$295,659 million, a 8.3% improvement, driven by higher volumes and prices. In year 2010, our average volume market share in the soft drink market in Chile increased to 69.1% reflecting that we maintain a strong competitive position. Our average value market share was 71.8% during 2010 compared to 71.7% in 2009.
Soft drink net sales in Chile amounted to Ch$241,172 million during 2010, representing a 7.0% increase regarding the previous year, principally explained by a 3.6% increase of volumes and by an increase of the average income per unit case . Net sales of fruit juices and waters in Chile was Ch$54,487 million in 2010, showing an increase of 14.0% from 2009. This growth was led by a 18.4% increase of sales volume of these segments.
In Brazil, Sales Volume amounted to 202.5 million unit cases, a 9.3% increase driven by Soft drinks (+7.7%) and the Juices, Waters and Beer segment (+33.3%). This significant growth reflects the economic and consumption recovery and favorable weather conditions. Net Sales reached Ch$407,782 million (+20.1%) due to the effect upon translation of figures in addition to higher volumes and price adjustments above local inflation. The Brazilian real appreciated 3.5% on average with respect to the respect the Chilean peso, resulting in a positive accounting impact over costs and expenses upon translation of figures for consolidation. In year 2010, our average volume market share in the soft drink market in Brazil reached 57.4% reflecting that we maintain a strong competitive position. Our average value market share was 67.0% during 2010 compared to 67.6% in 2009.
Soft drink net sales in Brazil amounted to Ch$350,824 million during 2010, representing a 17.6% increase regarding the previous year, principally explained by the effect upon translation of figures, increased volumes and price adjustments made in this segment. On the other hand, the Companys beer, waters and juices operations in Brazil generated net sales in 2010 of Ch$56,958 million, representing a 38.2% increase from 2009.
In Argentina, Sales Volume for the Full Year ended December 31, 2010 reached 125.2 million unit cases, an increase of 3.6%. Soft drinks grew 0.5% and the other categories of juices and Waters together grew 126%. Net Sales reached Ch$185,273 million (+6.2%), explained by price adjustments and increased volumes, offset by the effect upon translation of figures. The Argentine peso devalued 13.1% on average with respect to the Chilean peso resulting in a negative accounting impact over income and a positive impact over costs and expenses upon translation of figures for consolidation, in the end, having a negative impact over results. In year 2010, our average volume market share in the soft drink market in Argentina increased to 55.3% reflecting that we maintain a strong competitive position. Our average value market share was 62.8% during 2010 compared to 61.2% in 2009.
Soft drink net sales in Argentina amounted to Ch$166,947 million during 2010, representing a 4.3% increase regarding the previous year, principally explained by higher volumes in this segment , offset by the negative effect upon translation of figures. Net sales of PET packaging and juices in Argentina were Ch$18,326 million in 2010, representing an increase of 27.8% compared to 2009 resulting from the same reasons given for the increase in soft drinks net sales.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales were Ch$504,516 million in 2010, representing 56.8% of net sales, compared to Ch$453,036 million, or 57.6% of net sales in 2009. The increase in cost of sales in 2010 was principally due to (i) significant increases in the cost of sugar; (ii) depreciation of the Argentine peso, affecting our U.S.-dollar denominated costs; (iii) increased concentrate costs in Chile due to the incidence factor; and (iv) increased labor costs in Argentina and Brazil. All of which was offset by the appreciation of the currencies in Chile and Brazil, which resulted in a positive impact of U.S. - dollar denominated costs.
In Chile, Cost of Sales per unit case increased by 3,5% mainly due to increases in (i) the price of PET resin; (ii) depreciation and (iii) concentrate price; partially offset by the revaluation of the Chilean peso which has a positive impact over U.S. dollar denominated costs . In Brazil, Cost of Sales per unit case increased 5.9% mainly explained by: (i) increased sugar prices; (ii) higher labor costs, and (iii) increased purchase of soft drinks from third parties. Increased U.S. - dollar denominated costs were partially offset by the revaluation of the Brazilian real. In Argentina, Cost of Sales per unit case remained practically the same.
For the Companys Chilean operations, the percentage representing cost of sales regarding net sales was 57.5% for the year 2010 and 56.8% for the year 2009. For the Companys Brazilian operations, Cost of Sales represented 56.5% for 2010 and 58.6% of net sales for 2009. For the Companys Argentine Operations, cost of sales represented 56.1% during 2010 and 57.3% of net sales in 2009.
Gross Profit
Due to the aforementioned, gross profit in 2010 increased by 15.4%, reaching Ch$384,198 million, or 43.2% of net sales, compared to Ch$332,809 million, or 42.4% of net sales in 2009.
Administrative and Selling Expenses
Selling and administrative expenses amounted to Ch$234,964 million in 2010, this represented 26.4% of net sales for 2010 and a 17.7% increase with respect to the Ch$199,686 million in 2009, that represented 25.4% of net sales for that year. SG&A increased by the effect upon translation of figures of our operations in Brazil and the adjustment of freight fees.
As a percentage of net sales, the Companys Chilean operations recorded selling and administrative expenses of 23.0% in 2010 compared with 23.4% in 2009. Selling and administrative expenses in our Brazilian operations were 25.7% in 2010 compared with 23.7% in 2009 and the selling and administrative expenses in our Argentine operations were 31.3% in 2010 compared with 29.3% in 2009
Operating Income
As a consequence of the aforementioned, operating income increased 12.1% in 2010, amounting to Ch$149,234 million, or 16.8% of net sales, compared to Ch$133,123 million, or 16.9% of net sales in 2009.

Non-Operating Results totaled a loss of (Ch$9,294) million, which compares negatively to a loss of (Ch$5,972) million recorded during 2009. The account with greater variation is Other income and expenses, by function and other gains and losses which reflects a higher loss of Ch$3,720 million due to (i) a lower restatement of judicial deposits in Brazil with respect to the previous year; (ii) higher debit and credit taxation in Argentina during year 2010; (iii) losses given the February 27 earthquake in Chile (below insurance deductibles); and (iv) greater contingency adjustments in year 2010 compared to year 2009. The Ch$711 million variation of from affiliated companies that are accounted for using the equity
method is mainly due to improved results from the juice business Joint Venture in Brazil and from the packaging subsidiary in Chile.
Income Taxes
Income taxes in 2010 increased 24.6% to Ch$36,340 million compared to Ch$29,166 million in 2009. The increase is principally explained by: (i) greater earnings from the three countries in which the Company operates; (ii) a lower charge for tax expenses during 2009 in Chile, due to taxable assets in accordance with the variation of the exchange rate, generating tax savings as a result of the strong appreciation of the Chilean peso in 2009; and (iii) a lower use of fiscal incentives during 2010 in Brazil.
Net Income
As a result of the aforementioned, net income in 2010 was Ch$103,600 million, representing 11.7% of net sales and an increase of 5.7% compared to net income of Ch$97,985 million in 2009.
Impact of Foreign Currency Fluctuations
In Chile we had losses of Ch$222million in 2010 due to the revaluation of the Chilean peso, compared to a negative impact of foreign currency fluctuations in 2009 in the amount of approximately Ch$621 million, due to our low net asset position in U.S. dollars amounting to a total of approximately US$3 million.
In accordance with IFRS conversion methods, assets and liabilities from Argentina and Brazil are converted from their functional currency (Brazilian Real and Argentine Peso, respectively) to the reporting currency of the parent company (Chilean peso) at the end of period exchange rate, and income accounts at the exchange rate as of the date of the transaction or monthly average exchange rate of the month when it took place. The effects of translation are presented as comprehensive income and do not affect the results for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. The translation effects due to the currency conversion undertaken for assets and liabilities in accordance with the method previously explained resulted in a decrease of other comprehensive income of Ch$5,171 during 2010 (increase of Ch$6,496 million during 2009) for Brazil and a decrease of other comprehensive income of Ch$4,279 million during 2009 (decrease of Ch$15,428 million during 2009) for Argentina. We also present under other comprehensive income the net effect as result of the restatement of Chilean pesos to U.S. Dollars and Brazilian Reais to U.S. dollars resulting from the update of intercompany accounts that have designated as part of the Companys investment, this effect amounted to Ch$1,845 million during 2010 (Ch$1,355 million during 2009).
We use hedge agreements, to protect against foreign currency risk. In 2009 and 2010 these agreements partially offset the effects of the variation of the Chilean peso exchange rate, whose results are recorded as earnings and losses in the consolidated statements of income. For further information about the instruments we use to protect against foreign currency risk, see Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market RiskForeign Currency Risk.
Impact of Governmental Policies
Our business is dependent upon the economic conditions prevailing in our countries of operation. Various governmental economic, fiscal, monetary and political policies, such as those related to inflation or foreign exchange, may affect these economic conditions, and in turn may impact our business. These government policies may also affect investments by our shareholders.
For a discussion of political factors and governmental, economic, fiscal and monetary policies that could materially affect investments by U.S. shareholders as well as our operations, please refer to Item 3. Key InformationRisk Factors and Item 10. Additional Information
A. Liquidity and Capital Resources
Capital Resources, Treasury and Funding Policies
Our principal source of financing comes from our operations which historically have been sufficient. Cash generation is designated to finance working capital and capital expenditure requirements. Cash surplus has been utilized to pay dividends. The main sources to finance future strategic and geographic expansion plans include (i) public equity offerings; (ii) borrowings from commercial banks, both internationally and in the local markets where we have operations; and (iii) debt offerings in the Chilean and foreign capital markets.
There are no restrictions to transfer funds among our operating subsidiaries.We have transferred funds from Argentina to Chile through capital reductions. During 2008, 2009 and 2010 we received dividends from our subsidiaries in Argentina and Brazil, and we also expect to receive them in 2011.
Our management believes that, through these sources, we have sufficient financial resources available to maintain our current operations and provide for our current capital expenditure and working capital requirements, scheduled debt payments, interest and income tax payments and dividends to shareholders. The amount and frequency of future dividends to our shareholders will be determined by the General Shareholders Meeting upon the proposal of our board of directors in light of our earnings and financial condition at such time, and we cannot assure you that dividends will be declared in the future, except for the minimum 30% of annual profits required by Chilean law.
Our board of directors has been empowered by our shareholders to define our financing and investment policies. Our bylaws do not define a strict financing structure, nor do they limit the types of investments we may make. Traditionally, we have preferred to use our own resources to finance our investments.
Our financing policy is that each subsidiary should finance its own operations. From this perspective, each subsidiarys management must focus on cash generation and should establish clear targets for operating income, capital expenditures and levels of working capital. These targets are reviewed on a monthly basis to ensure that their objectives are met. Should increased financing needs arise, either as a result of a cash deficit or to take advantage of market opportunities, our policy is to prefer local financing to allow for natural hedging. If local financing conditions are not acceptable, because of costs or other constraints, Andina will provide financing.
Our cash surplus policy is that Andina invests any cash surplus in a portfolio of investment grade securities until such time as our board of directors makes a final decision as to the disposition of the surplus.
Derivative instruments are utilized only for business purposes, and never for speculative purposes. Forward currency contracts are used to cover the risk of local currency devaluation relative to the U.S. dollar in an amount approximately equal to our budgeted purchases of U.S. dollar-denominated raw materials. Depending on market conditions, instead of forward currency contracts, from time to time we prefer to utilize our cash surplus to purchase raw materials in advance to obtain better prices and a fixed exchange rate.
Investing Activities
Additions to property, plants and equipment during 2010 totaled Ch$95,462 million. Capital expenditures during 2010 were funded with cash flows from operations.
At December 31, 2010, we had no material commitments for the purchase of capital assets other than those related to normal replacement of equipment.
We believe that cash flow generated by operations, cash balances, available lines of credit, including lines of credit from suppliers, and borrowings from third parties, are currently sufficient to meet our working capital, debt service and capital expenditure requirements.
Financing Activities
As of December 31, 2010, we had Ch$97.178 million invested in time deposits and other short-term investments. As of that date, we had available short-term credit lines in an amount equivalent to Ch$109.160 million. The aggregate unused portion of such lines of credit at that date was equivalent to Ch$87.046 million.
Our unused sources of liquidity include 14 lines of credit. In Chile, we had the equivalent of Ch$30.876 million in credit available from two separate lines. In Brazil, we had the equivalent of Ch$35.806 million in credit available with 6 lines. In Argentina, we had the equivalent of Ch$20.364 million in credit available with five lines.
Liabilities
For the period ending December 31, 2010, our total liabilities, excluding non controlling interest, were Ch$300,341 million, representing a 9.1% increase compared to December 31, 2009. The increase in total liabilities resulted principally from higher trade accounts payable and higher bank liabilities in Argentina, partially offset by lower tax liabilities. As of December 31, 2010, our non-current liabilities included (i) other non current financial liabilities of Ch$70,449 million, (ii) other non-current provisions of Ch$4,268 million, (iii) deferred tax liabilities for Ch$42,492 million; (iv) non-current employee benefit provisions for Ch$7,257 million; and (v) other non-current non-financial liabilities for Ch$8,323 million, totaling non-current liabilities for Ch$132,789 million during 2010 compared to Ch$137,577 million during 2009.
For the period ending December 31, 2010, our current liabilities, included (i) other current financial liabilities of Ch$11,996 million, (ii) commercial accounts and other accounts payable for Ch$105,282 million; (iii) current accounts payable to related entities for Ch$14,323 million; (iv) other current provisions for Ch$62 million; (v) current tax liabilities for Ch$4,009 million and (vi) other non financial current liabilities for Ch$31,880 million. Total current liabilities during 2010 amounted to Ch$167,552 million compared to Ch$137,810 million during 2009.
As of December 31, 2010, our bond liabilities had a weighted average interest rate of 6.50% while our bank liabilities had a weighted average interest rate of 12.61%.
Summary of Significant Debt Instruments
The following is a brief summary of our significant long-term indebtedness outstanding as of December 31, 2010:
Unsecured Notes. On October 1, 1997 we entered into an indenture pursuant to which we issued three series of bonds. One of which expired during in 2007. The indenture imposes certain restrictions on liens, sale and leaseback transactions, assets sales and subsidiary indebtedness and certain conditions in the event of merger or consolidation.
The two series of bonds issued in 1997 under this indenture are the following:
· US$100 million of 7.625% Unsecured Notes due 2027; and
· US$100 million of 7.875% Unsecured Notes due 2097.
The Company has repurchased, through our subsidiary Abisa Corp., for cash at par value the notes outstanding and the following notes were tendered:
· US$100 million of the 7.625% Unsecured Notes due 2027; and
· US$100 million of the 7.875% Notes due 2097.
During 2001, Andina completed a local bond placement in the Chilean capital markets of two series of bonds, one of which expired during 2008. The outstanding series as of December 31, 2010 is the following:
· UF 3.7 million series of bonds due 2026, with annual interest rate over inflation of 6.50
The bond issue and placement in the Chilean market is subject to the following restrictions:
· Andina must maintain a indebtedness level wherein consolidated financial liabilities must be less than 1.20 times of Consolidated Shareholders´ Equity. For this purpose, Consolidated Financial Liabilities will be equal to accruing interest current liabilities, i.e (i) other current financial liabilities, plus (ii) other non current financial liabilities. Consolidated Equity means Total Shareholders Equity including non-controlling interest
· Andina must maintain consolidated assets free of any pledge, mortgage or other encumbrances for an amount equal to at least 1.30 times the consolidated liabilities that are not guaranteed by the investee.
· Andina may not lease, sell, assign or dispose of the franchise territory in Chile.
· Andina may not lease, sell, deliver or dispose of its franchise territory in Argentina or Brazil, as long as either territory represents more than 40% of Andinas consolidated operating cash flows.
C. Research and development, patents and licenses
Given the nature of the business and the support provided by TCCC as franchisor to its bottlers, the Companys research and development expenses are not meaningful. For more information on patents and licenses, see Patents and Licenses.
D. Trend Information
Our results will likely continue to be influenced by changes in the level of consumer demand in the countries in which we operate, resulting from governmental economic measures that are or may be implemented in the future. Additionally, principal raw materials used in the production of soft drinks, such as sugar and resin, may experience price increases in the future. Such price increases may affect our results if we are unable to pass the cost increases on to the sales price of our products due to depressed consumer demand and/or heightened competition.
Increased competition from low-price brands is another factor that could limit our ability to grow, and thus negatively affect our results.
Finally, exchange rate fluctuations, in particular the potential devaluations relative to the U.S. dollar of local currencies in the countries in which we operate, may adversely affect our results because of the impact on the cost of U.S. dollar-denominated raw materials and the conversion of monetary assets.
E. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

The directors may or may not be shareholders and are elected for a term of three years subject to indefinite re-election. In the case of Series A shares, it is necessary to have 14.29% of the total shares represented in a shareholders meeting in order to elect one director assuming there is 100% shareholder vote participation. In the case of series B shares, it is necessary to have a total of 50.1% of the total shares represented in a shareholders meeting to elect a director if it is also assumed that there is 100% shareholder vote participation.

In the event of a vacancy, the designated alternate director fills the vacancy for the remaining period of the directors term.

B. Compensation
Compensation of Principal Officers
The Company does not have any incentive plans other than salaries. The compensation system is a mixed one, composed by a base salary and participation, which are in accordance with each market and the competitive conditions of each one. For General Managers it also considers use of cash flow versus the budget and market share versus the established goals. Amounts are different depending on each officer, position and/or responsibility, but it is applicable to all of the Company. For the year ended December 31, 2010, compensation paid out to the principal officers of Embotelladora Andina S.A. amounted to Ch$5,180 million (Ch$4,422 million in 2009). Of the Ch$5,180 million paid to the main officers of Embotelladora Andina S.A., the variable portion was 36% and for the period ended December 31, 2009 of the Ch$4,422 million paid to the main officers of Embotelladora Andina S.A., the variable portion was 43%.

C. Board Practices
Our board of directors has regularly scheduled meetings at least once a month, and extraordinary meetings are convened when called by the chairman or when requested by one or more directors. The quorum for a meeting of the board of directors is established by the presence of an absolute majority of its regular directors, without taking alternate directors into consideration, unless regular directors are absent. Resolutions are passed by the affirmative vote of an absolute majority of those directors present at the meeting, with the chairman determining the outcome of any tie vote.
Executive Committee
An Executive Committee that proposes Company policies and is comprised by the following Directors counsels the Companys Board of Directors: Mr. Arturo Majlis Albala, Mr. José Antonio Garcés Silva (junior), Mr. Gonzalo Said Handal and Mr. Salvador Said Somavía, who were elected during the Extraordinary Board Session N°1031 held April 14, 2009.

The duties developed by this Committee during 2010, following the same categorization of faculties and responsibilities established by Article 50 bis of Company Law N°18,046 were the following:

Sarbanes-Oxley Audit Committee
In accordance with NYSE and SEC requirements regarding compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Board of Directors established the first Audit Committee on July 26, 2005.

The resolutions, agreements and organization of the Audit Committee are governed by the rules relating to Board Meetings and to the Companys Directors Committee. Since its creation, the sessions of the Audit Committee have been held with the Directors Committee, since some of the functions are very similar and the members of both of these Committees are the same.
The Audit Committee Charter defines the duties and responsibilities of this Committee. The Audit Committee is responsible for analyzing the Companys financial statements; supporting the financial supervision and rendering of accounts; ensuring managements development of reliable internal controls; ensuring compliance by the audit department and external auditors of their respective roles; and reviewing auditing practices.

In Chile, 70.1% of employees with indefinite work contracts are members of labor unions. The following collective bargaining agreements are in effect as of December 31, 2010: (i) with Labor Union N°2, that mainly represents personel from the areas of management, logistics and oeprations sepcialists from June 1. 2007 to June 1, 2011; (ii) with Labor Union N° 1, that mainly represents workers from the Bottling area, from December 1, 2010 to November 30, 2012; (iii) with Labor Union N°3 that mainly represents sales force employees from May 1st, 2010 to April 31 2014; (iv) an agreement with the salesforce negotiating group from June 1, 2010 to May 31, 2013; (iv) with Labor Union TAR, that represents workers from the distribution area from July 1, 2008 to June 30, 2012; (vi) with the picking area workers from the Distribution Centers in Puente Alto, Maipú, Rancagua and San Antonio from September 1, 2010 to August 31, 2014; and with the picking area workers from the Venecia, Renca and Carlos Valdovinos branches, from March 2011, to February 28, 2015.
Chilean Law 20,123 (regulates Subcontracting employment) beginning January 16, 2007. The most significant aspects are the following: (i) amendment on the responsibility that the main company formerly had with the workers of its contractors. The main company shared responsibility regarding labor and social security obligations that can affect contractors and subcontractors favoring the workers of the contractors and subcontractors, expressly including the corresponding legal indemnities pursuant to termination of the labor relation of the workers assigned to the services. Nevertheless, this responsibility could be supplementary if the main company exerts information and retention rights in accordance to the law; (ii) an obligation is established for the main company in the sense of adopting necessary measures to effectively protect the life and health of all workers who perform duties for the company, at any of the companys locations; (iii) creation of the concept temporary services companies (EST for its meaning in Spanish-Empresa de Servicios Transitorios) that are solely and exclusively dedicated to providing workers to third parties as temporary workers for other companies; as well as selection, qualification and formation of workers and other activities within the scope of human resources; and (iv) jurisdictional faculties are granted to la Direccion del Trabajo by which resolutions of this organism could be appealed before the respective Court of Appeals. During the 2009, Andina implemented different actions to assure a proactive fulfillment of the new law, among other actions, the Company incorporated a group of contractor workers, as company employees, updating service agreements and implementing a Labor Audit system with contractor companies. A Contractor Regulation was established along with an internal procedure for the hiring of contractors, which must be fulfilled permanently, and must include a process of pre-qualification and a compliance assessment.
In Brazil, 16.0% of employees are members of labor unions. Collective bargaining agreements are negotiated on an industry-wide basis, although companies can negotiate special terms for their affiliates that apply to all employees in each jurisdiction where companies have a plant. Collective bargaining agreements are generally binding for one year. With respect to Andina Brazil, there are six collective bargaining agreements currently in force. Four agreements for employees in the State of Rio de Janeiro; (i) the Soft Drink Industry Employees Union agreement from July 1, 2010 to June 30, 2011; (ii) the Sales Force Union agreement from October 1, 2009 to September 30, 2011; (iii) the Stack Machine Operator Union agreement from May 1, 2010 to April 30, 2011; (iv) the Driver and Helper of the Lagos Region Union agreement from May 1, 2010 through April 30, 2011. Two agreements for employees in the State of Espírito Santo: (i) the Nourishment
Union agreement from July 1, 2010 to June 30, 2011; (ii) the Sales Force Union agreement from December 1, 2009 to November 30, 2011. These agreements do not require us to increase wages on a collective basis. Selected increases were granted, however, mainly in the manufacturing area. We provide benefits to our employees according to the relevant legislation and to the collective bargaining agreements. Andina Brazil experienced its most recent work stoppages in January and October 1990, for eight days in each instance.
In Argentina, 67.6% of EDASAs employees are parties to collective bargaining agreements and are represented by local workers unions associated with a national federation of unions. The Argentine Chamber of Non-Alcoholic Beverages of the Argentine Republic (Cámara Argentina de Industria de Bebidas sin Alcohol de la República Argentina (the Chamber) and the Argentine Workers Federation of Carbonated Water (Federación Argentina de Trabajadores de Aguas Gaseosas) (the Federation) are parties to a collective bargaining agreement that began July 29, 2008. On November 29, 2010, the Chamber and the Federation entered into a new collective bargaining agreement establishing new salaries, new non salary benefits, a new labor category, new figures for company contributions, contributions and a new complementary regulation on company contributions.
Argentine law requires severance payments upon dismissal without cause in an amount at least equal to an average of one-months wages for each year of employment or a fraction thereof if employed longer than three months. Severance payments are subject to maximum and minimum amounts fixed by legislations and jurisprudence of the Justice Supreme Court of Argentina.
At the end of 2008 Congress sanctioned Law N° 26,425 by which beginning 2009, private pension funds were eliminated instructing that all employee contributions must be destined to the government social security system, Most of the health system in the Argentine territory is run by the unions through contributions from union and non-union employees.

Anti-Competition Lawsuit filed by the FNE (Chiles National Economic Prosecutor)
On April 28, 2011the Company was legally informed of an anti-competition lawsuit filed by the Chilean Fiscalía Nacional Económica (Chiles National Economic Prosecutor, the FNE) before the Tribunal de Defensa de la Libre Competencia (Chiles Court on Anti-Competition Cases, the TDLC) against Embotelladora Andina S.A. and Coca-Cola Embonor S.A. This lawsuit indicates that said companies would have violated the regulation of free competition by establishing a system of granting incentives in the traditional distribution channel (mom & pops) with the purpose that these points of sale do not advertise, exhibit and/or commercialize, in any manner, the so called B-brands or alternative soft drink beverages.
Pursuant to the aforementioned, the FNE requires the TDLC to impose a fine to each of the companies amounting to 10,000 Unidades Tributarias Anuales yearly taxable units (currently USD9.6 million approximately);
Andina is dedicating all necessary efforts to prove before the TDLC the lack of merits of this lawsuit.
Dividend Policy
Pursuant to Chilean law, we must distribute cash dividends equal to at least 30% of our annual net income, calculated in accordance with IFRS, unless otherwise provided for by a unanimous vote of the Series A shareholders. If there is no net income in a given year, we are not legally required to distribute dividends from accumulated earnings. At the annual meeting of shareholders held in April 2010, the shareholders authorized the board of directors to distribute, at its discretion, interim dividends during July and October 2010 and January 2011. During 2009 and 2010, the respective shareholders meetings approved additional dividend payments to be paid from retained earnings fund in light of significant cash generation. There can be no assurance that these additional dividend payments will be available in the future.
The following table sets forth the nominal amount in Chilean pesos of dividends declared and paid per share each year and the U.S. dollar amounts paid to ADR holders, on each of the respective payment dates:

The total number of registered ADR holders Andina had at December 2010 was 34 (21 in the Series A ADRs and 13 in the Series B ADRs). At December 31, 2010, the ADRs represented 8.3% of the total number of our issued and outstanding shares. On December 31, 2010, the closing price for the Series A shares on the Santiago Stock Exchange was Ch$1,920 per share (US$23.80 per Series A ADR), and Ch$2,369 for the Series B shares (US$30.20 per Series B ADR). At December 31, 2010, there were 1,900,908 Series A ADRs (equivalent to 11,405,448 Series A shares) and 8,600,646 Series B ADRs (equivalent to 51.603.876 Series B shares).
Trading activity on the Santiago Stock Exchange is on average substantially less than that on the principal national securities exchanges in the United States. We estimate that for the year ended December 31, 2010, Andinas shares were traded on the Santiago Stock Exchange on an average of approximately 87.6% and 100% of such trading days, for Series A and Series B shares respectively.
Other than as previously discussed in Item 7-Major Shareholders we are not aware of any other existing contracts or documents that impose material limitations or qualifications on the rights of shareholders of our listed securities.
The Yankee Bonds
Our 7 5/8% Notes due 2027 and 7 7/8% Notes due 2097 are not listed on any stock exchange or other regulated market and through its subsidiary, Abisa Corp S.A. (formerly Pacific Sterling). Embotelladora Andina S.A. repurchased its Yankee Bonds issued on the U.S. Market during the years 2000, 2001, 2002, 2007 and 2008. The entire placement amounted to US$350 million, of which US$200 million are outstanding and are presented after deducting the long-term liability from the other financial liabilities item.
Debt Securities
The Central Bank is responsible, inter alia, for Chiles monetary policies and exchange controls. The Central Bank has authorized Chilean issuers to offer bonds in Chile and abroad under the terms of Chapter XIV of the Compendium of Foreign Exchange Regulations (Compendio de Normas de Cambios Internacionales or CFER). The following paragraphs summarize some of the Central Bank rules on international bond issuances. This summary does not intend to be complete and those interested in a full description should refer to Chapter XIV of the CFER.
Effective April 19, 2001 the CFER greatly simplified the procedure to register capital contributions, investments and foreign loans, including bonds issuances. Payments or remittances of funds, to or from Chile, in connection with credits granted abroad should be made through the Formal Exchange Market, which is composed by the main commercial banks that operate in Chile. When foreign currency resulting from loans or bonds is made available to the beneficiary in the country, the intervening bank should issue the pertinent Form and request certain information from the debtor and creditor, as applicable, pursuant to Chapter XIV.
Payments or remittances of foreign currency as capital, interest, adjustments, profits and other benefits originating in the transactions regulated under Chapter XIV must be reported to the Central Bank as follows: (i) if the foreign currency represents a remittance made from Chile, the intervening Formal Exchange Market bank should issue the above form; (ii) the issuer or borrower should inform the Central Bank, within the first 10 days of the month following the date of the transaction, if the foreign currency used to make the pertinent payments originates from credit transactions for which the foreign currency has been used directly abroad or if the corresponding payment obligation is fulfilled abroad using funds other than those indicated in Chapter XIV.
Any change in the terms of the transaction must be reported to the Central Bank within 10 days after formalization. This requirement applies, among others, to the substitution of the debtor or creditor, total or partial assignments of credits or rights and the modification of the financial terms of the respective credit regarding investments or capital contributions.
Exchange rule amendments dated April 2001 established that transactions recorded prior to April 19, 2001 will continue to be governed by the rules in force at the time they were recorded, but that the parties may choose to apply the new regulations.
These procedures also apply to foreign loans obtained through the placement of convertible bonds, in which case the issuer shall report to the Central Bank any increase or decrease in their registered amount as a result of the conversion of convertible bonds denominated and payable in Chilean pesos, for other convertible bonds denominated and payable in foreign currency or shares, as applicable, acquired by foreign investors with proceeds that had entered Chile under the terms of Chapter XIV.
According to Chapter XIV, the Central Bank established that credits relating to acts, agreements or contracts which create a direct obligation of payment or remittance of foreign currency abroad by persons domiciled or residing in Chile, that exceed on an individual basis the sum of US$100,000 or the equivalent in other foreign currencies, absent any special rule in
the CFER, shall be reported to the Chilean Central Bank by the obligor either directly or through a Formal Exchange Market entity using the forms contained in the CFER, within 10 days from formalization.
In February 1999, after obtaining the requisite authorization from the Central Bank, we issued bonds in the international markets, subject to the exchange regulations in effect at that time. The main difference between the exchange regime applicable to our bond issuances and those currently in effect, is that in the case of our bond issuances the Central Banks warrants the access to currency markets. However, the regime applicable to our bond issuance has less flexibility as far as the procedures to carry out payments or remittances to bond holders.
We cannot give any assurance that the Central Bank will not impose future restrictions applicable to the holders of debt securities, nor can we make any evaluation of the duration or impact of such restrictions, if imposed.

C. Material Contracts
On August 31, 2010, Andina Brazil along with the other Coca-Cola bottlers in Brazil, entered into an agreement with Recofarma (A Coca-Cola Brazil Group company) to transfer all of the shares of Leão Junior S.A. (Matte Leão), by which the bottlers will now hold 50% ownership interest of the capital stock of that company. With this joint venture, Andina Brazil now holds a 18.20% of the capital stock of Leão Junior S.A. With this transfer agreement, Leão Junior S.A. will produce Matte Leão products and supply the bottlers so that they can commercialize them in their respective territories.
During 2009, Edasa entered into the following materially significant agreements: construction of the new juice plant; leasing of processing equipment and filling lines for the juice plant; supply of natural gas; supply of power; and purchase and sale agreement of a blow molding machinery system for PET bottles.
On December 16, 2008 Andina Brazil entered into a Cession Agreement with Recofarma (a company from the Coca-Cola group in Brazil) along with the other Coca-Cola Bottlers and Jugos del Valle S.A.P.I. de C.V. (México) for the total shares of Holdfab Particapacoes Ltda. of the Sucos del Valle Brasil Ltda. Company (Sucos del Valle) whereby the Coca-Cola bottlers now hold a 50% ownership interest of this company. With this joint venture Andina Brazil now holds a total ownership interest of 6.164% of capital share of the Sucos Mais + Sucos del Valle joint venture. By this Cession Agreement, Sucos del Valle will produce and supply on an exclusive basis to all Coca-Cola bottlers so that they in turn can commercialize the products in their respective territories.
Pursuant to a Joint Venture Agreement or JV dated October 4, 2007 Andina Brazil and all Coca-Cola bottlers in Brazil entered into a joint venture to exploit the Brazilian juice market, through the incorporation of a company called Mais Industria de Alimentos S.A. or Sucos Mais. Sucos Mais was structured as follows: 50% of its capital was subscribed by the 18 Coca-Cola bottlers in Brazil and 50% by the company representing Coca-Cola in the country (called Recofarma Industria do Amazonas Ltda.). Andina Brazil holds an interest of 7.35% in the capital of Sucos Mais. By this JV, Sucos Mais will produce all Minute Maid Mais products, as well as Kapo, Nestea and Burn (non-carbonated, expet waters) and supply on an exclusive basis to all Coca-Cola bottlers so that they in turn can commercialize the products in their respective territories.
In Chile, on December 22, 2005, Andina, Vital, Coca-Cola Embonor S.A. or Embonor and Embotelladoras Coca-Cola Polar S.A. or Polar entered into an agreement to carry out the production and bottling of products in the business categories of Water, Juices and Non-Carbonated Beverages, licensed by The Coca-Cola Company in Chile: (i) in the category of Water, Andina, Embonor (through its subsidiary, Embonor S.A.) and Polar have an interest of 56.5%, 26.4% and 17.1%, respectively, in Vital Aguas S.A., conducting the business of the processing, production and bottling of the Vital de Chanqueahue Mineral Water and other waters, according to the terms of the contracts and authorizations agreed upon by Vital Aguas S.A. and TCCC; and (ii) During January of 2011, the juice business was restructured, allowing the incorporation of the other Coca-Cola bottlers in Chile to the property of Vital S.A. which changed its name to Vital Jugos S.A. Andina, Embonor S.A. and Embotelladora Coca-Cola Polar S.A. own 57%, 28% and 15%, respectively, of the outstanding capital of Vital Jugos S.A.
D. Exchange Controls
Foreign Investment and Exchange Controls in Chile
The Central Bank is responsible, among other matters, for setting monetary policies and exchange controls in Chile. As of April 19, 2001, the Chilean Central Bank (CCB) eliminated prior foreign exchange controls, imposed certain reporting requirements and determined that certain operations be conducted through the Formal Exchange Market (FEM). The main purpose of these amendments, as declared by the Central Bank, is to facilitate the flow of capital into Chile and outside the country and to foster foreign investment.
Equity investments in Chile (including investments in stock) by non-resident persons or entities must comply with some of the existing exchange control restrictions. Foreign investments may be registered with the Foreign Investment Committee (Comité de Inversiones Extranjeras) in accordance with Law N° 600 of 1974 and amendments or with the Central Bank in accordance with Chapter XIV of the Compendium of Foreign Exchange Regulations (Compendio de Normas de Cambios Internacionales or CFER) of the Central Bank. In the case of Decree Law N° 600, foreign investors execute a foreign investment agreement with Chile, thus guaranteeing access to the FEM. However, investors under Decree Law N° 600 will only be able to repatriate capital one-year after the investment. Earnings can be remitted abroad at any time. In the case of CFER, capital as well as earnings can be repatriated at any time, without an agreement with the Central Bank.
During 2001 the CCB eliminated certain exchange controls. For instance, it revoked Chapter XXVI of the CFER, which regulated the issuance and placement of ADRs by Chilean corporations. Pursuant to the new rules, the Central Banks approval is no longer a pre-condition for ADR issuances or foreign investment contracts with the CCB. ADR issuances are now regarded as an ordinary foreign investment, and the only requirements are that the CCB be informed of the transaction, by fulfilling the rules of Chapter XIV of the CFER, that mainly establishes that the monies come in or leave the country exclusively through the Formal Exchange Market, if the recipient of the investment decides to enter the foreign currency to the country or if it carries out payments or remittances from Chile.
Notwithstanding these changes, exchange transactions authorized prior to April 19, 2001 remained subject to the rules in force as of the date of such transactions. The new exchange regime did not affect Chapter XXVI of the CFER and the Foreign Investment Contract - FIC between Andina, the Central Bank and The Bank of New York Mellon (as depositary of the shares represented by ADRs). Notwithstanding the previous, the parties to the FIC may choose to adopt the norms imposed by the CCB, resigning to those of the FIC, and which has been the option we have taken until this date. The FIC is the agreement by which access to the FEM is given to the depositary and ADR holders. The FIC adopted the dispositions of Chapter XXVI and was celebrated pursuant to Article 47 of the Constitutional Organic Act of the CCB.
Under Chapter XXVI of the CFER, if the funds to purchase the common shares underlying the ADRs are brought into Chile, the depositary must deliver, on behalf of foreign investors, an annex providing information on the transaction to the Formal Exchange Market entity involved, together with a letter instructing such entity to deliver the foreign currency or the equivalency in pesos, on or before the date the foreign currency is brought or is to be brought into Chile.
Repatriation of amounts received with respect to deposited common shares or common shares withdrawn from deposits on surrender of ADRs (including amounts received as cash dividends and proceeds from the sale in Chile of the underlying common shares and any rights arising there from) need be made through the FEM. The FEM entity intervening in the repatriation must provide certain information to the CCB on the following banking business day.
Under Chapter XXVI and the FIC, the CCB agreed to grant to the depositary, on behalf of ADR holders, and to any investor not residing nor domiciled in Chile who acquire shares or replace ADRs for common stock, which we refer to as the Withdrawn Shares, FEM access to convert Chilean pesos into U.S. dollars and to remit those dollars outside Chile including amounts received as: (i) cash dividends; (ii) proceeds from the sale in Chile of Withdrawn Shares; (iii) proceeds from the sale in Chile of preemptive rights to subscribe for additional shares; (iv) proceeds from the liquidation, merger or consolidation of Andina; (v) proceeds resulting from capital decreases or earnings or liquidations; and (vi) other distributions, including those in respect of any re-capitalization resulting from holding shares, ADRs or by Withdrawn Shares.
The guarantee of FEM access under the FIC will extend to the participants of the ADR offering if the following requirements are met: (i) that the funds to purchase the shares underlying the ADRs are brought into Chile and converted into Chilean pesos through the FEM; (ii) that the purchase of the underlying shares is made on a Chilean stock exchange; and (iii) that within five business days from the conversion of the funds into Chilean pesos, the CCB is informed that the funds converted were used to purchase the underlying shares, if those funds are not invested in shares within that period, it can access the FEM to reacquire foreign currency, provided that the request is submitted to the CCB within seven banking business days of the initial conversion into pesos.
Chapter XXVI provides that FEM access in connection with dividend payments is conditioned to our certifying to the CCB that a dividend payment has been made and that any applicable tax has been withheld. Chapter XXVI also provides that FEM access in connection with the sale of Withdrawn Shares, or distribution thereon, is conditioned upon receipt by the CCB (i) a certificate by the depositary or custodian, as the case may be, that the shares have been withdrawn in exchange for delivery of the appropriate ADRs, and (ii) a waiver of the benefits of the FIC with respect to ADRs (except in connection with the proposed sale of the shares) until the Withdrawn Shares are re-deposited.
FEM access under any of the circumstances described above is not automatic. Pursuant to Chapter XXVI, such access needs the BCCs approval on a request submitted to that end through a banking institution established in Chile. The FIC provides that if the BCC has not acted upon the request within seven banking days, the request is deemed to have been granted.
Under current Chilean law, the BCC cannot unilaterally change the FIC. The Chilean Courts (although not binding on future judicial decisions) also have established that the FIC cannot be annulled by future legislative changes. No assurance can be given, however, that additional Chilean restrictions applicable to the holders of ADRs, to the disposition of underlying shares, or to the repatriation of proceeds from their disposition, will not be imposed in the future; nor can there be any assessment of the duration or impact of any restrictions that might be imposed. If for whatever reason, including changes in the FIC or Chilean law, the Depositary is prevented from converting Chilean pesos into U.S. dollars; the investors shall receive dividends or other payments in Chilean pesos, which shall subject the investors to exchange rate risks. It cannot be assured that the CFER, as amended, or any other exchange regulation will not be amended in the future, or that if new regulations are enacted that they shall have no material bearing on Andina or the ADR holders.
No assurance can be given that Andina will be able to purchase U.S. dollars in the local exchange market at any time in the future, nor that any such purchase will be for the amounts necessary to pay any sum due under any of its capital or debt instruments. Likewise, it is not possible to guarantee that changes to the regulations of the CCB or other legislative changes relating to exchange controls will not restrict nor impair Andinas ability to purchase U.S. dollars in order to make payment on its debt instruments.
E. Taxation
Tax Considerations Relating to Equity Securities
Chilean Tax Considerations
The following discussion summarizes the material Chilean income tax consequences of an investment in Andinas stock or ADRs by an individual who is not domiciled or resident in Chile or a legal entity that is not organized under the laws of Chile and does not have a permanent establishment in Chile (a foreign holder). This discussion is based upon Chilean income tax laws presently in force, including Ruling No. 324 of January 29, 1990 of the Servicio de Impuestos Internos (the Chilean Internal Revenue Service or SII) and other applicable regulations and rulings that are subject to change without notice. The discussion is not intended as a tax advice to any particular investor, which can be rendered only in light of that investors particular tax situation. Each investor or potential investor is encouraged to seek independent tax advice with respect to consequences of investing in Andinas stock or the ADRs.
Under Chilean law, all matters regarding taxation such as tax rates (including tax rates applicable to foreign investors), the computation of taxable income for Chilean purposes, the manner in which Chilean taxes are imposed and collected, and others thereof, may only be imposed or amended by a law enacted by Congress. In addition, the SII is empowered to issue rulings and regulations of either general or specific application, and to interpret the provisions of Chilean tax law. Chilean tax may not be assessed retroactively against taxpayers who act in good faith relying on such rulings, regulations and interpretations, but the SII may change said rulings, regulations and interpretations prospectively. There is no income tax treaty in force between Chile and the United States.
Cash Dividends and Other Distributions
Dividends we pay with respect to the shares of stock held by a foreign holder will be subject to Chilean withholding tax at a rate of 35% (the Withholding Tax). The tax paid by the Company on profits originating from Chile from which the dividends are paid (the First Category Tax), imposed at a rate of 17%, will be credited against the Withholding Tax. The credit will increase the base upon which the Withholding Tax is imposed. Consequently, dividends that are attributable to current profits will be subject to an effective dividend withholding tax rate of 21.7%, calculated as follows:
|
|

Profits originating from Brazil or Argentina have a different tax treatment for credit on First Category Tax.
For purposes of determining the amount of First Category Tax we pay on profits from which the dividends are paid, dividends are attributed to our oldest retained profits.
The two aforementioned factors generate a profit origin mix and thus, an additional net tax withholding.
Dividend distributions made in property will be subject to the same Chilean tax rules as cash dividends. Our stock dividends are not subject to Chilean taxation.
Capital Gains
Gains recognized from the sale or exchange of ADRs by a foreign holder outside Chile will not be subject to Chilean taxation. Gains recognized on a sale or exchange of shares of stock will be subject to both the First Category Tax and the Withholding Tax (the former being credited against the latter) if either: (i) the foreign holder has held the shares of common stock for less than one year, (ii) the foreign holder acquired and disposed of the shares of common stock in the ordinary course of its business or as an habitual trader of shares; or (iii) the foreign holder transfers shares of common stock to a related person, as defined by Chilean tax law. In all other cases, gain on the disposition of shares of common stock will be subject only to the First Category Tax, currently imposed at a rate of 17%, except if it is for shares resulting from an exchange of ADRs for shares (flow back) in which case, the Chilean Internal Revenue Service pursuant to Oficio 1,705 dated May 15, 2006 has interpreted that said shares may benefit from article 18 ter if the ADRs were acquired through a stock broker or by any other circumstance stipulated by that norm.
The tax basis of shares of common stock received in exchange for ADRs will be determined in accordance with the valuation procedure set forth in the deposit agreement, which values shares of common stock at the highest reported sales price at which they trade on the Santiago Stock Exchange on the date of the withdrawal of the shares of common stock from the depositary. Consequently, the conversion of ADRs into shares of common stock, and the immediate sale of the shares for the value established under the deposit agreement, will not generate a capital gain subject to taxation in Chile. However, in the case where the sale of the shares is made on a day that is different than the date in which the exchange is recorded, capital gain subject to taxation in Chile may be generated. In connection thereto, on October 1, 1999 the Chilean Internal Revenue Service issued Ruling No. 3708 whereby it allowed Chilean issuers of ADRs to amend the deposit agreements to which they are parties in order to include a clause that states that, in the case that the exchanged shares are sold by the ADRs holders on a Chilean Stock Exchange either on the same day in which the exchange is recorded or within the two business days prior to such date, the acquisition price of such exchanged shares shall be the price registered in the invoice issued by the stock broker that participated in the sale transaction. Consequently, should this amendment be included in the deposit agreement, the capital gain that may be generated if the exchange date is different than the date in which the shares received in exchange for ADRs were sold, will not be subject to taxation. We reiterate that if a contributor in good faith adopts Oficio 1,705, then the excess value will not be subject to taxation in Chile.
The distribution and exercise of preemptive rights relating to the shares of common stock will not be subject to Chilean taxation. Any gain on the sale or assignment of preemptive rights relating to the shares of common stock will be subject to both the First Category Tax and the Withholding Tax (the former being credited against the latter).
Other Chilean Taxes
No Chilean inheritance, gift or succession taxes apply to the transfer or disposition of the ADRs by a foreign holder, but such taxes generally will apply to the transfer at death or by gift of shares of common stock by a foreign holder. No Chilean stamp, issue, registration or similar taxes or duties apply to foreign holders of ADRs or shares of common stock.
Withholding Tax Certificates
Upon request, we will provide to foreign holders appropriate documentation evidencing the payment of Chilean withholding taxes.
United States Tax Considerations Relating toADRs or Shares of Common Stock
The following discussion summarizes certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in ADRs or shares of common stock. This discussion is based upon U.S. federal income tax laws presently in force. The discussion is not a full description of all tax considerations that may be relevant to a decision to purchase ADRs or shares of common stock. In particular, the discussion is directed only to U.S. holders (as defined below) that hold ADRs or shares of common stock as capital assets, and it does not address the tax treatment of holders that are subject to special tax rules under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (the Code), such as financial institutions, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, investors in pass-through entities, dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities holdings, insurance companies, tax-exempt entities, persons holding ADRs or shares of common stock as part of a hedging, integrated, conversion or constructive sale transaction or a straddle, holders of 10% or more of our voting shares, persons liable for alternative minimum tax or persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. Furthermore, the discussion below is based upon the provisions of the Code and regulations,
rulings and judicial decisions there under as of the date hereof, and such authorities may be repealed, revoked or modified so as to result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those discussed below. In addition, the discussion below assumes that the Deposit Agreement, and all other related agreements, will be performed in accordance with their terms. If a partnership holds our ADRs or shares of common stock, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partners in a partnership holding ADRs or shares of common stock should consult their tax advisors. This summary does not contain a detailed description of all the United States federal income tax consequences to a holder in light of its particular circumstances and does not address the effects of any state, local or non-United States tax laws. Prospective purchasers should consult their tax advisors about the federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences to them of the purchase, ownership and disposition of ADRs or shares of common stock.
As used herein, the term U.S. holder means a holder of ADRs or shares of common stock that is (i) an individual U.S. citizen or resident, (ii) a corporation (or any other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source or (iv) a trust that: (a) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and with respect to which one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (b) has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.
If the obligations contemplated by the deposit agreement are performed in accordance with its terms, ADR holders generally will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as the owners of the shares of common stock represented by those ADRs. Deposits or withdrawals of shares of common stock by U.S. holders in exchange for ADRs will not result in the realization of gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The U.S. Treasury has expressed concerns that intermediaries in the chain of ownership bewtween the holder of an ADR and the issuer of the security underlying the ADR may be taking actions that are inconsistent with the claiming of foreign tax credits for U.S. holders of ADRs. Such actions would also be inconsistent with the claiming of the reduced rate of tax, described below, applicable to dividends received by certain non-corporate holders. Accordingly, the analysis of the creditability of Chilean taxes and the availability of the reduced tax rate for dividends received by certain non-corporate holders, each described below, could be affected by actions taken by that intermediaries in the chain of ownership bewtween the holder of an ADR and the Company.
Cash Dividends and Other Distributions
Cash dividends (including the amount of any Chilean taxes withheld) paid to U.S. holders with respect to the ADRs or shares of common stock generally will be treated as dividend income to such U.S. holders, to the extent paid out of current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Such income will be includable in the gross income of a U.S. holder as ordinary income on the day received by the Depositary, in the case of ADRs, or by the U.S. holder, in the case of shares of common stock. The dividends will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporations under the Code. With respect to non-corporate U.S. holders, certain dividends received before January 1, 2011 from a qualified foreign corporation may be subject to reduced rates of taxation. A foreign corporation is treated as a qualified foreign corporation with respect to dividends received from that corporation on shares (or ADRs backed by such shares) that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. U.S. Treasury Department guidance indicates that our ADRs (which are listed on the New York Stock Exchange), but not our shares of common stock, are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. Thus, we do not believe that dividends that we pay on our shares of our common stock that are not backed by ADRs currently meet the conditions required for these reduced tax rates. There can be no assurance that our ADRs will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in later years. Non-corporate holders that do not meet a minimum holding period requirement during which they are not protected from the risk of loss or that elect to treat the dividend income as investment income pursuant to section 163(d)(4) of the Code will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation regardless of our status as a qualified foreign corporation. In addition, the rate reduction will not apply to dividends if the recipient of a dividend is obligated to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. This disallowance applies even if the minimum holding period has been met. Non-corporate U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of these rules given their particular circumstances.
Dividends paid in Chilean pesos will be includable in income in a U.S. dollar amount based on the exchange rate in effect on the day of receipt by the Depositary, in the case of ADRs, or by the U.S. holder in the case of shares of common stock, regardless of whether the Chilean pesos are converted into U.S. dollars. If the Chilean pesos received as dividends are not converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, a U.S. holder will have a basis in the Chilean pesos equal to their U.S.
dollar value on the date of receipt. Any gain or loss realized on a subsequent conversion or other disposition of the Chilean pesos will be treated as U.S. source ordinary income or loss, regardless of whether the pesos are converted into U.S. dollars.
The Chilean Withholding Tax (net of any credit for the First Category Tax) paid by or for the account of any U.S. holder may be eligible, subject to generally applicable limitations and conditions, for credit against the U.S. holders federal income tax liability. For purposes of calculating the foreign tax credit, dividends paid with respect to the ADRs or shares of common stock generally will be foreign source income and will generally constitute passive category income. Further, in certain circumstances, a U.S. holder that (i) has held ADRs or shares of common stock for less than a specified minimum period during which it is not protected from risk of loss or (ii) is obligated to make payments related to the dividends, will not be allowed a foreign tax credit for foreign taxes imposed on dividends paid on ADRs or shares of common stock. The rules governing the foreign tax credit are complex. Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.
Distributions to U.S. holders of additional shares of common stock or preemptive rights with respect to shares of common stock that are made as part of a pro rata distribution to all shareholders of the Company generally should not be subject to U.S. federal income tax.
To the extent that the amount of any distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits for a taxable year, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles, the distribution will first be treated as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction in the adjusted basis of the ADRs or shares of common stock (thereby increasing the amount of gain, or decreasing the amount of loss, to be recognized by the investor on a subsequent disposition of the ADRs or shares of common stock), and the balance in excess of adjusted basis will be taxed as capital gain recognized on a sale or exchange. Consequently, such distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits generally would not give rise to foreign source income and a U.S. holder generally would not be able to use the foreign tax credit arising from any Chilean withholding tax imposed on such distributions unless such credit can be applied (subject to applicable limitations) against U.S. taxes due on other foreign source income in the appropriate category for foreign tax credit purposes. However, we do not expect to keep earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, a U.S. holder should expect that a distribution will generally be treated as a dividend (as discussed above).
We do not believe that we are, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a passive foreign investment company (a PFIC), and expect to continue our operations in such a manner that we will not be a PFIC. If, however, we are or become a PFIC, U.S. holders could be subject to additional U.S. federal income taxes on gain recognized with respect to the ADRs or shares of common stock and on certain distributions, plus an interest charge on certain taxes treated as having been deferred by the U.S. holder under the PFIC rules of the U.S. federal income tax laws.
Non-corporate U.S. holders will not be eligible for reduced rates of taxation on any dividends received from us prior to January 1, 2011, if we are a PFIC in the taxable year in which such dividends are paid or in the preceding taxable year.
Capital Gains
U.S. holders that hold ADRs or shares of common stock as capital assets will recognize capital gain or loss for federal income tax purposes on the sale or other disposition of such ADRs or shares (or preemptive rights with respect to such shares) held by the U.S. holder or the Depositary. Capital gains of individuals derived with respect to capital assets held for more than one year are eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. holder generally will be treated as U.S. source gain or loss. Consequently, in the case of a disposition of shares of common stock (which, unlike a disposition of ADRs, may be taxable in Chile), the U.S. holder may not be able to use the foreign tax credit for Chilean tax imposed on the gain unless it can apply (subject to applicable limitations) the credit against tax due on other income from foreign sources.
Estate and Gift Taxation
As discussed above under Chilean Tax Considerations Other Chilean Taxes, there are no Chilean inheritance, gift or succession taxes applicable to the transfer or disposition of ADRs by a foreign holder, but such taxes generally will apply to the transfer at death or by gift of shares of common stock by a foreign holder. The amount of any inheritance tax paid to Chile may be eligible for credit against the amount of U.S. federal estate tax imposed on the estate of a U.S. holder. U.S. holders should consult their personal tax advisors to determine whether and to what extent they may be entitled to such credit. The Chilean gift tax generally will not be treated as a creditable foreign tax for U.S. tax purposes.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
In general, information reporting requirements will apply to dividends in respect of ADRs or the shares of common stock or the proceeds received on the sale, exchange, or redemption of the ADRs or the shares of common stock paid within the United States (and in certain cases, outside of the United States) to U.S. holders other than certain exempt recipients. A backup withholding tax may apply to such payments if the U.S. holder fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number or certification of other exempt status or fails to report interest and dividends required to be shown on its federal income tax returns. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a U.S. holder will be allowed as a refund or a credit against the U.S. holders U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.
Tax Considerations Relating to Debt Securities
General
In October 1997, we issued US$100 million of 7.625% Unsecured Notes due 2027 and US$100 million of 7.875% Unsecured Notes due 2097 (together the Debt Securities). The following is a summary of certain Chilean tax and U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the purchase, ownership and disposition of Debt Securities. The summary does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all tax considerations that may be relevant to a decision to purchase Debt Securities. This summary does not describe any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, locality or taxing jurisdiction other than the United States and Chile.
This summary is based on the tax laws of Chile and the United States as in effect on the date hereof, as well as regulations, rulings and decisions of Chile and the United States available on or before such date and now in effect. All of the foregoing is subject to change, which change could apply retroactively and could affect the continued validity of this summary.
There is currently no tax treaty between the United States and Chile.
Chilean Tax Considerations
The following is a general summary of the material consequences under Chilean tax law, as currently in effect, of an investment in the Debt Securities made by a Foreign Holder. The term Foreign Holder means: (i) an individual, who is not a resident in Chile (for purposes of Chilean taxation, an individual is resident in Chile if he or she has resided in Chile for more than six months in one calendar year, or a total of more than six months in two consecutive fiscal years); or (ii) a legal entity that is not organized under the laws of Chile, unless the Debt Securities are assigned to a branch or an agent, representative or permanent establishment of such entity in Chile.
Under Chiles Income Tax Law, payments of interest made in respect of the Debt Securities to a Foreign Holder will generally be subject to a Chilean withholding tax (the Chilean Interest Withholding Tax) currently assessed at a rate of 4.0%. If the Debt Securities are issued through our offshore branch, payment to Foreign Holders of Debt Securities by such branch generally will not be subject to the Chilean withholding tax.
Chiles Income Tax Law provides that any capital gains realized on the sale or other disposition by a Foreign Holder of the Debt Securities generally will not be subject to any Chilean income taxes provided that such sale or other disposition occurs outside of Chile (except that any premium payable on redemption of the Debt Securities will be treated as interest and subject to the Chilean Interest Withholding Tax, as described above).
A Foreign Holder will not be liable for gift, inheritance or similar taxes with respect to its holdings unless the securities held by a foreign holder:
· are located in Chile at the time of such Foreign Holders death, or
· if they are located outside of Chile, they were purchased or acquired with funds derived from Chilean source income,
The initial issuance of the Debt Securities by a foreign entity (be they a company or a branch) is generally not subject to stamp taxes in Chile. If stamp taxes apply, a foreign or Chilean holder will not be liable for Chilean stamp, registration or similar taxes because these would be payable by the Company.
United States Tax Considerations Relating to Debt Securities
The following summary describes certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership of Debt Securities by U.S. holders (as defined below) as of the date hereof. Except where noted, it deals only with Debt Securities held as capital assets and does not deal with special situations, such as those of dealers in securities or currencies, financial institutions, insurance companies, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, tax-exempt entities, investors in pass-through entities, persons holding the Debt Securities as a part of a hedging, integrated, conversion or constructive sale transaction or a straddle, traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities holdings, persons liable for the alternative minimum tax or holders of Debt Securities whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. Furthermore, the discussion below is based upon the provisions of the Code, and regulations, rulings and judicial decisions there under as of the date hereof, and such authorities may be repealed, revoked or modified so as to result in U.S. federal income tax consequences different from those discussed below. If a partnership holds our Debt Securities, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partners in a partnership holding our Debt Securities should consult their tax advisors.
Persons considering the purchase, ownership or disposition of the Debt Securities should consult their own tax advisors concerning the federal income tax consequences in light of their particular situations as well as any consequences arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction.
As used herein, a U.S. holder of the Debt Securities means a holder of the Debt Securities that is (i) an individual U.S. citizen or resident, (ii) a corporation (or any other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source or (iv) a trust that (a) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and with respect to which one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decision of the trust or (b) has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.
Payments of Interest
Interest on the Debt Securities will generally be taxable to a U.S. holder as ordinary income at the time it is paid or accrued in accordance with the U.S. holders method of accounting for tax purposes. In addition to interest on the Debt Securities, a U.S. holder will be required to include in income any additional amounts and any tax withheld from interest payments notwithstanding that such withheld tax is not in fact received by such U.S. holder. A U.S. holder may be entitled to deduct or credit such tax, subject to applicable limitations in the Code, including that the election to deduct or credit foreign taxes applies to all of the U.S. holders foreign taxes for a particular year. Interest income, including Chilean taxes withheld there from and additional amounts on the Debt Securities, generally will constitute foreign source income and generally will be considered passive category income, which is treated separately from other types of income in computing the foreign tax credit that may be allowable to U.S. holders under U.S. federal tax laws. A U.S. holder will generally be denied a foreign tax credit for Chilean taxes imposed with respect to the Debt Securities where such a holder does not meet a minimum holding period requirement during which the holder is not protected from risk of loss.
The rules governing the foreign tax credit are complex. We urge investors to consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.
Market Discount
If a U.S. holder purchases a Debt Security for an amount that is less than its principal amount, the amount of the difference will be treated as market discount for U.S. federal income tax purposes, unless that difference is less than a specified de minimis amount. Under the market discount rules, the U.S. holder will be required to treat any principal payment on, or any gain on the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of, a Debt Security as ordinary income to the extent of the market discount that the U.S. holder has not previously included in income and is treated as having accrued on the Debt Security at the time of its payment or disposition.
In addition, the U.S. holder may be required to defer, until the maturity of the Debt Security or its earlier disposition in a taxable transaction, the deduction of all or a portion of the interest expense on any indebtedness attributable to the Debt Security. A U.S. holder may elect, on a bond-by-bond basis, to deduct the deferred interest expense in a tax year prior to the year of disposition. U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors before making this election.
Any market discount will be considered to accrue ratably during the period from the date of acquisition to the maturity date of the Debt Security, unless the U.S. holder elects to accrue on a constant interest method. A U.S. holder may elect to include market discount in income currently as it accrues, on either a ratable or constant interest method, in which case the rule described above regarding deferral of interest deductions will not apply.
Amortizable Bond Premium
A U.S. holder that purchases a Debt Security for an amount in excess of its principal amount will be considered to have purchased the Debt Security at a premium. The U.S. holder may elect to amortize the premium over the remaining term of the Debt Security on a constant yield method as an offset to interest when includible in income under the holders regular accounting method. If the U.S. holder does not elect to amortize bond premium, that premium will decrease the gain or increase the loss the holder would otherwise recognize on disposition of the Debt Security.
Sale, Exchange and Retirement of Debt Securities
Upon the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of the Debt Securities, a U.S. holder will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized upon the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition (less any accrued interest, which will be taxable as such if not previously included in income) and the U.S. holders adjusted tax basis in the Debt Securities. A U.S. holders tax basis in the Debt Securities generally will be the U.S. holders cost therefore, increased by market discount previously included in income, and reduced by any amortized premium. Except as described above with respect to market discount, gain or loss realized by a U.S. holder on the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of the Debt Securities will generally be capital gain or loss. Gain or loss realized by a U.S. holder on the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of the Debt Securities will generally be treated as U.S. source gain or loss. Consequently, a U.S. holder may not be able to claim a credit for any Chilean tax imposed on the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of the Debt Securities due to limitations on the foreign tax credit under the Code. Capital gains of individuals derived with respect to capital assets held for more than one year are eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
In general, information reporting requirements will apply to certain payments of principal and interest on the Debt Securities and to the proceeds of the sale of the Debt Securities made to U.S. holders other than certain exempt recipients. A backup withholding tax will apply to such payments if the U.S. holder fails to provide its taxpayer identification number or a certification of exempt status, or, in the case of interest payments, fails either to report in full dividend and interest income or to make certain certifications.
Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against the U.S. holders U.S. federal income tax liability provided the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.
Special Tax Considerations Relating to the 2097 Debentures
As a result of the 2097 Debentures 100 year term, it is not certain whether such Debentures will be treated as debt or as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We have taken the position that the 2097 Debentures constitute debt for financial reporting and U.S. federal income tax purposes. Our position, however, is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service. Although classification of the 2097 Debentures as equity generally would not significantly affect a U.S. holders taxable income resulting from an investment in the 2097 Debentures, the discussion that follows also briefly describes certain U.S. federal income tax consequences that would arise if the 2097 Debentures were not treated as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
If the 2097 Debentures are treated as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the potential differences in the U.S. federal income tax treatment to U.S. holders of the 2097 Debentures that would result include (i) payments denominated as interest on the 2097 Debentures (including additional amounts) would be reclassified as dividends to the extent paid out of the current or accumulated earnings and profits of the Company (as determined using U.S. federal income tax principles) and
(ii) U.S. holders would be required to report such payment amounts as ordinary income when actually or constructively received (instead of accruing such amounts as interest, even if such U.S. holders are accrual method taxpayers). To the extent any such payments exceed such earnings and profits, they would be treated as a return of capital or capital gain (although, as we do not expect to keep earnings and profits in accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles. U.S. holders should expect that such payments will generally be treated as dividends). Amounts treated as dividends will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction generally allowed U.S. corporations. In addition, because our 2097 Debentures are not readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States, we do not believe that any amounts treated as dividends currently meet the conditions required for the reduced tax rates that apply to qualified dividend income received by non-corporate U.S. holders. Persons considering the purchase, ownership or disposition of the 2097 Debentures should consult their own tax advisors concerning additional potential tax consequences, including those arising upon a sale, exchange or redemption of the 2097 Debentures, which could result from the treatment of the 2097 Debentures as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

I. Subsidiary Information
Not applicable.
ITEM 11. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Market risk generally represents the risk that losses may occur in the values of financial instruments as a result of movements in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity prices. We are exposed to changes in financial market conditions in the normal course of our business due to our use of certain financial instruments as well as transacting in various foreign currencies and translation of our foreign subsidiaries financial statements into the Chilean peso.
Interest Rate Risk
Our primary interest rate exposures relate to U.S. dollar denominated and UF long-term fixed rate bond liabilities and other long-term variable and fixed rate bank liabilities. We also invest in certain medium-term bond securities that bear a fixed interest rate. We monitor our exposure to interest rate fluctuations regularly depending on market conditions.
The following table provides information about our long-term debt and bond investments that are sensitive to changes in market interest rates as of December 31, 2010.

ITEM 12. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES OTHER THAN EQUITY SECURITIES
Not applicable.
ITEM 12.D.3. AMERICAN DEPOSITARY RECEIPITS
The Bank of New York Mellon serves as the depositary for our ADRs. ADR holders are required to pay various fees to the depositary, and the depositary may refuse to provide any service for which a fee is assessed until the applicable fee has been paid.
ADR holders are required to pay the depositary amounts in respect of expenses incurred by the depositary or its agents on behalf of ADR holders, including expenses arising from compliance with applicable law, taxes or other
governmental charges, or conversion of foreign currency into U.S. dollars. The depositary may decide in its sole discretion to seek payment by either billing holders or by deducting the fee from one or more cash dividends or other cash distributions.
ADR holders are also required to pay additional fees for certain services provided by the depositary, as set forth in the table below.
Depositary service |
|
Fee payable by ADR holders |
Issuance and delivery of ADRs, including in connection with share distributions |
|
Up to US$ 5.00 per 100 ADSs (or portion thereof) |
Withdrawal of shares underlying ADRs |
|
Up to US$ 5.00 per 100 ADSs (or portion thereof) |
Registration for the transfer of shares |
|
Registration or transfer fees that may from time to time be in effect |
Cash distribution fees |
|
US$ 0.02 or less per ADS |
In addition, holders may be required to pay a fee for the distribution or sale of securities. Such fee (which may be deducted from such proceeds) would be for an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the fee for the issuance of ADRs that would be charged as if the securities were treated as deposited shares and (2) the amount of such proceeds.
12.D.4 DIRECT AND INDIRECT PAYMENTS BY THE DEPOSITARY
Fees Incurred in Past Annual Period
From January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010, the Company received from the depositary US$142,226.58 for continuing annual stock exchange listing fees, standard out-of-pocket maintenance costs for the ADRs (consisting of the expenses of postage and envelopes for mailing annual and interim financial reports, printing and distributing dividend checks, electronic filing of U.S. Federal tax information, mailing required tax forms, stationery, postage, facsimile, and telephone calls), any applicable performance indicators relating to the ADR facility, underwriting fees and legal fees.
Fees to be Paid in the Future
The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary, has agreed to reimburse the Company for expenses they incur that are related to establishment and maintenance expenses of the ADR program. The depositary has agreed to reimburse the Company for its continuing annual stock exchange listing fees. The depositary has also agreed to pay the standard out-of-pocket maintenance costs for the ADRs, which consist of the expenses of postage and envelopes for mailing annual and interim financial reports, printing and distributing dividend checks, electronic filing of U.S. Federal tax information, mailing required tax forms, stationery, postage, facsimile, and telephone calls. It has also agreed to reimburse the Company annually for certain investor relationship programs or special investor relations promotional activities. In certain instances, the depositary has agreed to provide additional payments to the Company based on any applicable performance indicators relating to the ADR facility. There are limits on the amount of expenses for which the depositary will reimburse the Company, but the amount of reimbursement available to the Company is not necessarily tied to the amount of fees the depositary collects from investors.
The depositary collects its fees for delivery and surrender of ADRs directly from investors depositing shares or surrendering ADRs for the purpose of withdrawal or from intermediaries acting for them. The depositary collects fees for making distributions to investors by deducting those fees from the amounts distributed or by selling a portion of distributable property to pay the fees. The depositary may collect its annual fee for depositary services by deduction from cash distributions or by directly billing investors or by charging the book-entry system accounts of participants acting for them. The depositary may generally refuse to provide fee-attracting services until its fees for those services are paid.

ITEM 15. CONTROLS AND DISCLOSURE PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Administration Officer and Controller, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Administration Officer and Controller have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Managements Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Company management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Companys Chief Executive Officer, Chief Administration Officer and Controller and effected by the Companys Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisitions, use or disposition of the Companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness as to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
The Companys management assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. In making this assessment, the Companys management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, the Companys internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.
The effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 has been audited by the Companys registered independent accounting firm, which opinion is stated in their report, included herein.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2010 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct that constitutes a code of ethics for our employees.

Our Code of Business Conduct is available on our website www.embotelladoraandina.com.

(2) Audit-related fees relate to assurance and associated services that traditionally are performed by the independent accountant, including: attest services that are not required by statute or regulation; accounting consultation and audits in connection with mergers, acquisitions and divestitures; employee benefit plans audits; and consultation concerning financial accounting and reporting standards.
(3) Tax fees relate to services performed by the tax division for tax compliance, planning, and advice.
Directors Committee and Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures
We have adopted pre-approval policies and procedures under which all audit and non-audit services provided by our external auditors must be pre-approved by our Directors Committee and Audit Committee and then it is discussed and approved by these committees during its meetings, which take place at least four times a year. Once the proposed service is approved, our subsidiaries or we formalize the engagement of services. In addition, the members of our board of directors are briefed on matters discussed by the different committees of our board of directors.
ITEM 16D. EXEMPTIONS FROM THE LISTING STANDARDS FOR AUDIT COMMITTEES
The Companys Audit Committee is comprised of Salvador Said Somavía, Heriberto Urzúa Sánchez, Arturo Majlis Albala.
The Company discloses that, with respect to the current membership of Mr. Salvador Said and Mr. Arturo Majlis Albala on the Companys 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 . Pursuant to said rule, 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. Salvador Said and Mr. Arturo Majlis Albala meet, for the duration of their membership, the requirements of Rule 10A-3(b)(1)(iv)(D) because they (i) are a representative of the controlling shareholder of the Company, Inversiones Freire Ltda.; (ii) have an observer-only status on the audit committee of the Company; and (iii) are not officers of the Company.
The Companys reliance on the exemption provided by Rule 10A-3of the Exchange Act, with respect to Mr. Salvador Said and Mr. Juan Claro, would not materially adversely affect the ability of the audit committee of the Company to act independently.
ITEM 16E. PURCHASERS OF EQUITY SECURITIES BY THE ISSUER AND AFFILIATED PURCHASERS

CHILEAN LAW REQUIREMENTS |
|
|
|
|
|
303A.01 Independence |
|
Members of the Board of Directors must be independent in their majority. |
|
There is no legal obligation to have a Board of Directors composed mainly of independent members. In addition, according to section 303A regarding Controlled Companies, the requirements of 303A do not apply to our Company. |
|
|
|
|
|
303A.02 Test of Independence |
|
Members of the Board of Directors must meet the Test of Independence. |
|
No similar legal obligation exists under Chilean law. However, Chilean law defines a director as independent if he is elected by votes of shareholders who are not controlling shareholders or otherwise related to controlling shareholders. |
|
|
|
|
|
303A.03 Meetings of Non-Management Directors |
|
Non-Management Directors must meet regularly without management of the company. |
|
No similar legal obligation exists under Chilean law. Under Chilean law, the position of director of a corporation is incompatible with the position of manager, auditor, accountant or president of the company.

|
A company must adopt a Code of Business Conduct for its directors, officers and employees. Such company must disclose any waiver of its code of conduct that is granted to an officer or director. |
|
There is no legal obligation to adopt a Code of Business Conduct. Chilean law requires that a company have a set of internal regulations which regulate the company and its relations with personnel. Such regulations must contain, among other things, regulations related to ethics and good behavior. Notwithstanding the above, a company may create internal codes of conduct, provided they do not require or prohibit behavior that contravenes Chilean law.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of
Embotelladora Andina S.A.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Embotelladora Andina S.A. and subsidiaries (the Company) which comprise the consolidated statements of financial position as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the opening consolidated statement of financial position as of January 1, 2009, and the related consolidated income statements, statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Embotelladora Andina S.A. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and as of January 1, 2009, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB)
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America), the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria) and our report dated June 28, 2011, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of
Embotelladora Andina S.A.:
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Embotelladora Andina S.A. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). The Companys management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the companys internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the companys assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, Embotelladora Andina S.A. and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on the COSO criteria.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America), the consolidated statements of financial position of Embotelladora Andina S.A. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2009 and as of January 1, 2009, and the consolidated income statements, statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, and expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

2.4 Basis of Consolidation
2.4.1 Subsidiaries
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the Financial Statements of the Company and the companies it controls (its subsidiaries). The Company has control when it has the power to direct the financial and operating policies of a company so as to obtain benefits from its activities. They include assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2010, December 31, 2009 and January 1, 2009; and income and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009. Income or losses from subsidiaries acquired or sold are included in the consolidated financial statements from the effective date of acquisition through the effective date of sale, as applicable.
The acquisition method is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries. The acquisition cost is the fair value of assets, of equity securities and of liabilities incurred or assumed on the date of exchange, plus the cost directly attributable to the acquisition. Identifiable assets acquired and identifiable liabilities and contingencies assumed in a business combination are accounted for initially at their fair value as of the acquisition date. The excess acquisition cost above the fair value of the Groups share in identifiable net assets acquired is recognized as goodwill. If the acquisition cost is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognized directly in income.
Intra-group transactions, balances and unrealized gains in intra-group transactions are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated. Whenever necessary, the accounting policies of subsidiaries are modified to assure uniformity with the policies adopted by the Group.
The value of non-controlling interest in equity and the results of the consolidated subsidiaries is presented in Equity; non-controlling interests, in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and in net income attributable to non-controlling interests, in the Consolidated Income Statements by Function.
The consolidated financial statements include all assets, liabilities, income, expenses, and cash flows of the company and its subsidiaries after eliminating intra-group balances and transactions.
The list of subsidiaries included in the consolidation is detailed as follows:

2.4.2 Investments in associates accounted for using the equity method
Associates are all entities over which the Group exercises a material influence but does not have control. Generally, it holds an interest of 20% to 50% in the voting rights of associates. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognized at cost.
The Groups share in income and losses subsequent to the acquisition of associates is recognized in income.
Unrealized gains in transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the interest the Group holds in those associates. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless there is evidence in the transaction of an impairment loss on the asset being transferred. Whenever necessary, the accounting policies of associates are adjusted to assure uniformity with the policies adopted by the Group.
2.5 Financial reporting by operating segment
IFRS 8 requires that entities disclose information on the revenues of operating segments. In general, this is information that Management and Board of Directors use internally to evaluate the profitability of segments and decide how to allocate resources to them. Therefore, the following operating segments have been determined by geographic location:
· Chile operation
· Brazil operation
· Argentina operation
2.6 Foreign currency translation
2.6.1 Functional currency and currency of presentation
The items included in the financial statements of each of the entities in the Group are valued using the currency of the main economic environment in which the entity does business (functional currency). The consolidated financial statements are presented in Chilean pesos, which is the Companys functional currency and presentation currency.
2.6.2 Balances and transactions
Foreign currency transactions are converted to the functional currency using the foreign exchange rate prevailing on the date of each transaction. Translation losses and gains in the settlement of these transactions and in the conversion of the foreign currencydenominated assets and liabilities at the closing foreign exchange rates are recognized in the comprehensive income account.
The foreign exchange rates and values prevailing at the close of each fiscal year were:

2.6.3 Companies in the Group
The income statement and financial position of all companies in the Group (none of which uses the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that use a functional currency other than the presentation currency are translated to the presentation currency in the following way:
(i) Assets and liabilities in each statement of financial position are translated at the closing foreign exchange rate at the reporting date;
(ii) Income and expenses of each income statement account are translated at the average foreign exchange rate; and
(iii) All resulting translation differences are recognized as other comprehensive income.
The Companies that use a functional currency different from the presentation currency of the parent company are:

|

|
Argentine Peso A$ |
In the consolidation, the translation differences arising from the conversion of a net investment in foreign entities are recognized in other comprehensive income. On disposal of the investment, those translation differences are recognized in the income statement as part of the loss or gain on the disposal of the investment.
2.7 Property, Plant, and Equipment
The assets included in property, plant and equipment are recognized at cost, less depreciation and cumulative impairment losses.
The cost of property, plant and equipment includes expenses directly attributable to the acquisition of items. The historical cost also includes revaluations and price-level restatement of opening balances at January 1, 2009, due to first-time exemptions in IFRS.
Subsequent costs are included in the value of the original asset or recognized as a separate asset only when it is likely that the future economic benefit associated with the elements of property, plant and equipment will flow to the Group and the cost of the element can be determined reliably. The value of the component that is substituted is derecognized. The remaining repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement in the fiscal year in which they incurred.
Land is not depreciated. Other assets, net of residual value, are depreciated by distributing the cost of the different components on a straight line basis over the estimated useful life, which is the period during which the companies expect to use them.
The estimated years of useful life are:
Assets |
|
Range in years |
Buildings |
|
30-50 |
Plant and Equipment |
|
10-20 |
Warehouse installations and accessories |
|
10-30 |
Other accessories |
|
4-5 |
Motor vehicles |
|
5-7 |
Other property, plant and equipment |
|
3-8 |
Bottles and Containers |
|
3-7 |
The residual value and useful lives of assets are revised and adjusted, if necessary, at each reporting date.
When the value of an asset is higher than its estimated recoverable amount, the value is reduced immediately to the recoverable amount.
Losses and gains on the disposal of property, plant, and equipment are calculated by comparing the disposal proceeds to the carrying amount, and are charged to the income statement.
2.8 Intangible Assets
2.8.1 Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of the Groups share in identifiable net assets of the subsidiary on the acquisition date. The goodwill recognized separately is tested annually for impairment and is carried at cost, less accumulated impairment losses.
Gains and losses on the sale of an entity include the carrying amount of the goodwill related to that entity.
The goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units (CGU) in order to test for impairment losses. The allocation is made to CGUs that are expected to benefit from the business combination that generated the goodwill.
2.8.2 Water rights
Water rights that have been paid for are included in the group of intangible assets, carried at acquisition cost. They are not amortized since they have no expiration date, but are annually tested for impairment.
2.9 Impairment Losses
Assets that have an indefinite useful life, such as land, are not amortized and are tested annually for impairment. Amortizable assets are tested for impairment whenever there is an event or change in circumstances indicating that the carrying amount might not be recoverable. An excess carrying value of the asset above its recoverable amount is recognized as an impairment loss. The recoverable amount is the higher of an assets fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.
In order to evaluate impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that have suffered an impairment loss are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there were any reversals of the loss.
2.10 Financial Assets
The Company classifies its financial assets into the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and accounts receivable, and assets available for sale. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial assets were acquired. Management determines the classification of financial assets at the time of initial recognition.
2.10.1 Financial Assets at Fair Value through Profit or Loss
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets available for sale. A financial asset is classified in this category if it is acquired mainly for the purpose of being sold in the short term. Assets in this category are classified as current assets.
Losses or gains from changes in fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are recognized in the income statement under finance income or expenses during the year in which they occur.
2.10.2 Loans and Accounts Receivable
Loans and accounts receivable are not quoted on an active market. They are recorded in current assets, unless they are due more than 12 months from the reporting date, in which case they are classified as non-current assets. Loans and accounts receivable are included in trade and other accounts receivable in the statement of financial position.
2.10.3 Other Financial Assets
Other Financial Assets corresponds to bank deposits that the Groups management has the positive intention and ability to hold until their maturity. They are recorded in current assets because they mature in less than 12 months from the reporting date.
Accrued interests are recognized in the income statement under finance income during the year in which they occur.
2.11 Derivatives and hedging
The derivatives held by the Company correspond to transactions hedged against foreign exchange rate risk and the price of raw materials and thus materially offset the risks that are hedged.
The derivatives are accounted for at fair value. If positive, they are recorded under hedge assets. If negative, they are recorded under hedge liabilities.
The Companys hedge agreements do not qualify as hedges pursuant to IFRS requirements. Therefore, the changes in fair value are immediately recognized in the income statement under Other income (expenses).
The Company does not use hedge accounting for its foreign investments.
The Company has also evaluated the derivatives implicit in financial contracts and instruments to determine whether their characteristics and risks are closely related to the master agreement, as stipulated by IAS 32 and 39.
Fair value hierarchy
At December 31, 2010, the Company did not have any open sugar sales contracts. The Company had a total liability related to its foreign exchange forward contracts of ThCh$ 917,219, which are classified within the other current non-financial liabilities and are carried at fair value on the statement of financial position. The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:
Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly
Level 3: techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data
During the reporting period ended December 31, 2010, there were no transfers of items between fair value measurements categories all of which were valued during the period using level 3.
2.12 Inventory
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined by using the weighted average cost method. The cost of finished products and of work in progress includes raw materials, direct labor, other direct costs and manufacturing overhead (based on a normal operating capacity) to bring the goods to marketable condition, but it excludes interest expense. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less any variable cost of sale.
Estimates are also made for obsolescence of raw materials and finished products based on turnover and ageing of the items involved.
2.13 Trade receivable
Trade accounts receivable are recognized initially at their nominal value, given the short term in which they are recovered, less any impairment loss. A provision is made for impairment losses on trade accounts receivable when there is objective evidence that the Company will be incapable of collecting all sums owed according to the original terms of the receivable, based either on individual analyses or on global aging analyses. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced as the provision is used and the loss is recognized in administrative and sales expenses in the income statement.
2.14 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, time deposits in banks and other short-term, highly liquid investments with purchased maturities of three months or less.
2.15 Bank and Debt Security Debt
Bank funding such as debt securities issued are initially recognized at fair value, net transaction costs. Liabilities with third parties are later valued at amortized cost. Any difference between the funding obtained (net of the costs required to obtain it) and the reimbursement amount is recognized in the income statement during the term of the debt using the effective interest rate method.
2.16 Income tax and deferred taxes
The Company and its subsidiaries in Chile account for income tax according to the net taxable income calculated by the rules in the Income Tax Law. Its subsidiaries abroad do so according to the rules of the respective countries.
Deferred taxes are calculated using the balance sheet - liability method on the temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the annual consolidated accounts.
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary differences can be offset.
Deferred taxes for temporary differences deriving from investments in subsidiaries and associates are recognized except when the Company can control the timing when the temporary differences will be reversed and it is likely that they will not be reversed in the foreseeable future.
2.17 Employee benefits
The Company has established a provision to cover employee indemnities that will be paid to its employees according to the individual and collective contracts in place. This provision is accounted for at the actuarial value in accordance with IAS 19. The positive or negative effect on indemnities because of changes in estimates (turnover, mortality, retirement, and other rates) is recorded directly in income.
The Company also has an executive retention plan. It is accounted for as a liability according to the directives of this plan. This plan grants certain executives the right to receive a fixed cash payment on a pre-set date once they have completed the required years of employment.
The Company and its subsidiaries have made a provision for the cost of vacation and other employee benefits on an accrual basis. This liability is recorded under accrued liabilities.
2.18 Provisions
Provisions for litigation are recognized when the company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount can be reliably estimated.
2.19 Bottle deposits
This is a liability comprised of cash collateral received from customers for bottles made available to them.
This liability represents the value of the deposit maimed at client and distribute facilities that must be returned if the client or the distributor returns the bottles and cases to us in good condition, along with the original invoice. Estimation of this liability is based on an inventory of bottles given as a loan to clients and distributors, the estimated amount of bottles in circulation and a historical average weighted value per bottle or case.
2.20 Revenue Recognition
Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods in the ordinary course of the Companys business. Revenue is presented net of value-added tax, returns, rebates, and discounts and net of sales between the companies that are consolidated.
The Company recognizes revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured and it is probable that the future economic benefits will flow to the Company.
2.21 Dividend payments
Dividend payments to the Companys shareholders are recognized as a liability in the consolidated financial statements of the Company, based on the obligatory 30% minimum in accordance with the Corporations Law.
2.22 Critical accounting estimates and judgments
The Company makes estimates and judgments about the future. Actual results may differ from previously estimated amounts... The estimates and judgments that might have a material impact on future financial statements are explained below.
2.22.1 Estimated impairment loss on goodwill
The Group test annually whether goodwill has undergone any impairment. The recoverable amounts of cash generating units have been determined on the basis of value in use calculations. The key variables that management must calculate include the sales volume, prices, marketing expense, and other economic factors. Estimating these variables requires considerable judgment by the management, as those variables imply inherent uncertainties. However, the assumptions used are consistent with the Companys internal planning. Therefore, the management evaluates and updates estimates from time to time according to the conditions affecting these variables. If these assets are deemed to have become impaired, the estimated fair value will be written off, as applicable. Should these assets deteriorate, they will be written off to the estimated fair value or future recoverable value, in accordance with discounted cash flows. Estimated future free cash flows in Brazil and Argentina were discounted at a rate of 15% and generated a higher value than the respective assets, including the surplus value of the Brazilian and Argentine subsidiaries.
2.22.2 Provision for Doubtful Receivables
The Company evaluates the possibility of collecting trade accounts receivable using several factors. When the Company becomes aware of a specific inability of a customer to fulfill its financial commitments, a specific provision for doubtful accounts is estimated and recorded, which reduces the recognized receivable to the amount that the Company estimate will ultimately be collected. In addition to specifically identifying potential uncollectible customer accounts, debits for doubtful accounts are accounted for based on the recent history of prior losses and a general assessment of trade accounts receivable, both outstanding and past due, among other factors. The balance of the Companys trade accounts receivable was ThCh$105,059,078 at December 31, 2010, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts provision of ThCh$1,225,556. Historically, doubtful accounts have represented an average of less than 1% of consolidated net sales.
2.22.3 Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property, plant, and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of those assets. Changes in circumstances, such as technological advances, changes to the Companys business model, or changes in its capital strategy might modify the effective useful life as compared to our estimates. Whenever the Company determines that the useful life of property, plant and equipment might be shortened, it depreciates the excess between the net book value and the estimated recoverable amount according to the revised remaining useful life. Factors such as changes in the planned use of manufacturing equipment, dispensers, and transportation equipment or computer software could make the useful lives of assets shorter. The Company reviews the impairment of long-lived assets each time events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value of any of those assets might not be recovered. The estimate of future cash flows is based, among other things, on certain assumptions about the expected operating profits in the future. Company estimates of non-discounted cash flows may differ from real cash flows because of, among other reasons, technological changes, economic
conditions, changes in the business model, or changes in the operating profit. If the sum of non-discounted cash flows that have been projected (excluding interest) is less than the carrying value of the asset, the asset will be written down to its estimated fair value.
2.22.4 Liabilities for bottle and case collateral
The Company records a liability represented by deposits received in exchange for bottles and cases provided to its customers and distributors. This liability represents the amount of the deposit that must be returned if the client or distributor returns the bottles and cases in good condition, together with the original invoice. This liability is estimated on the basis of an inventory of bottles given as a loan to customers and distributors, estimates of bottles in circulation and a weighted average historical cost per bottle or case. Management must make several assumptions in relation to this liability in order to estimate the number of bottles in circulation, the amount of the deposit that must be reimbursed and the synchronization of disbursements.
2.23 New IFRS and Interpretations of the IFRS Interpretation Committee
New accounting pronouncements from the IAS and IFRIC interpretation have been published and / or reviewed. The management assessed the impact of these new pronouncements and interpretation and does not anticipate that its adoption will lead to a significant impact on the annual information of the company and its subsidiaries in the year of initial application.

NOTE 3 FIRST-TIME ADOPTION OF IFRS
Embotelladora Andina S.A. and Subsidiaries have implemented IFRS effective December 31, 2010.
The transition date for Embotelladora Andina and Subsidiaries is January 1, 2009.
Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 present the reconciliations required by IFRS 1 between the beginning and closing balances of the year ending December 31, 2009 and the year ended December 31, 2009; and the beginning balances as of January 1, 2009, after applying these standards.
The exemptions in IFRS 1 that the Company decided to apply in its IFRS adoption are:
i) Business combinations:
The Company did not retroactively restate any business combinations that took place prior to January 1, 2009.
ii) Fair value or revaluation as deemed cost.
The Company considered the valuation of certain items in property, plant, and equipment as the fair value to be used as the deemed cost on the transition date. Those assets comprise virtually all of the land of operations in Chile, Argentina and Brazil and selected real estate, machinery and equipment, the values of which, in local currency, were significantly different from the fair values determined by valuation.
The group of assets of Chilean Companies for which the fair value was not assigned as deemed cost was valued at historical cost, plus a legal price-level restatement to represent the deemed cost on the transition date.
iii) Cumulative actuarial gains and losses for post-employment benefits:
The effects of applying actuarial calculations to post-employment benefits were recognized directly in accrued income as of January 1, 2009.
iv) Translation reserves:
The Company considered all cumulative translation reserves at the transition date to be zero.
Below is a detailed description of the main differences between Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in Chile (Chile GAAP) and IFRS applied by the Company, and the impact on Equity at December 31, 2009, and January 1, 2009 and on the net income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009:

3.3 Explanation of main differences between Chilean GAAP and IFRS
3.3.1 Property, plant and equipment
The Company reviewed all property, plant, and equipment in order to consider their fair value as deemed cost on the transition date. After the review, the Company determined that almost all of the land and selected real estate, machinery and equipment of our operations in Chile, Argentina and Brazil was significantly different from the fair values determined in valuations. The re-valuation was conducted one time only in accordance with IFRS 1. The new value determined corresponds to the initial cost of the asset beginning as of the transition date. The fair value of the assets amounted to ThCh$20,778,523 for Chile, ThCh$27,108,950 for Brazil and ThCh$16,298,876 for Argentina as of January 1, 2009 and represents an increase in equity of ThCh$64,186,349 as of that same date.
The group of assets of Chilean Companies for which the fair value was not used as the deemed cost was valued at historical cost, plus legal price-level restatement, as the deemed cost on the transition date.
Moreover, according to Chilean GAAP, property, plant and equipment of operations in Brazil and Argentina were accounted for in U.S. Dollars while according to IFRS, those same assets are now controlled accounted for in the functional currency of each of the countries of origin. This change in GAAP represents an decrease in equity of ThCh$35,716,490, with ThCh$12,573,086 originating from Argentina and ThCh$23,143,404 from Brazil.
Because of the increases in the initial balances for property, plant and equipment as described above, there was a greater charge for depreciation expense as presented in the reconciliation of income between Chilean GAAP and IFRS for a value of ThCh$4,276,931.
The amount shown in property, plant and equipment totaled, on a consolidated basis, ThCh$223,676,043 at December 31, 2008 according to Chilean GAAP, a value that in accordance with the new GAAP increased to ThCh$248,747,764, with ThCh$ 116,197,382 of this increase deriving from operations in Chile, ThCh$84,444,005 from operations in Argentina and ThCh$48,106,377 from operations in Brazil.
3.3.2 Goodwill
The equity adjustment originates in the change in functional currency between Chilean GAAP and IFRS. According to Chilean GAAP, goodwill on the operations in Argentina and Brazil was accounted for in U.S. dollars while under IFRS, it is accounted for directly in the functional currency of each country.
The effects on income presented in the reconciliation between Chilean GAAP and IFRS come from suspending the straight-line amortization that had been performed through December 31, 2009 under Chilean GAAP. Under IFRS, those amounts are not amortizable and the value is reduced only provided the impairment test shows a recoverable amount that is less than the carrying value.
3.3.3 Intercompany account treated as investment in subsidiary
Within its corporate structure, the Company has intercompany accounts receivable in U.S. dollars from its subsidiaries abroad. According to Chilean GAAP, the foreign exchange rate differences originating in the Chilean Companies resulting from these accounts receivable were accounted for directly in income, while the foreign subsidiaries recognized this effect and the rest of the items controlled in U.S. dollars as a translation effect in the income statement. Under IFRS, those U.S. dollar accounts receivable and accounts payable have been assigned as part of the foreign investment, therefore any difference between the U.S. dollar and the functional currency of each of the entities is accounted for under other comprehensive income.
3.3.4 Post-employment benefits
Under IFRS, the employee severance indemnity based on individual or collective employment contracts creates a liability that must be determined by the actuarial value of the accrued cost of the benefit. This means making estimates of variables such as future permanence, the interest rate at which benefits are discounted, mortality rate, employee turnover rate and future salary increases, among others. According to Chilean GAAP, this same obligation was recognized at the actual value according to the benefit accrued cost and a year of capitalization that considered the expected time of employment of employees on the date of their retirement.
The difference derived from applying actuarial calculations to the employee severance benefits is shown in the reconciliation of equity and income statement between Chilean GAAP and IFRS.
3.3.5 Foreign currency translation effects
Under Chilean GAAP, according to Bulletin 64 of the Chilean Accountants Association, the non-monetary assets and liabilities of foreign companies were accounted for in historic dollars and results were translated from local currency to the control currency (U.S. dollar). Subsequently the figures in the control currency were translated to Chilean pesos at the closing foreign exchange rate.
According to IFRS, non-monetary asset and liability accounts are accounted for in the functional currency of each reporting entity and income accounts are translated at the functional currency of the parent company at the average foreign exchange rate for each transaction.
In the reconciliation of results between Chilean GAAP and IFRS, the foreign currency translation effects recognized under Chilean standards have been reversed and the income that results from the foreign currency translation to IFRS has been recognized.
3.3.6 Price-level restatement
Accounting principles in Chile require that the financial statements be adjusted to reflect the effect exerted by variations in of the purchasing power of the Chilean peso on the financial position and operating income of the reporting entities. This method was based on a model that required calculating the profit or loss from net inflation attributed to monetary assets and liabilities exposed to variations in the purchasing power of the local currency. The historical cost of non-monetary assets and liabilities, equity accounts and income accounts are restated to reflect variations in the CPI from the date of acquisition to the close of the fiscal year.
The gain or loss in the purchasing power, included in net income or losses, reflected the effects of inflation on monetary assets and liabilities held by the Company.
IFRS does not permit indexing by inflation in countries, like Chile, that are not hyperinflationary. So, the income statement and statement of financial position accounts are not adjusted for inflation, and variations are nominal. The reconciliation of equity and income between Chilean GAAP and IFRS shows the effects of eliminating price-level restatement recorded during 2009.
3.3.7 Hedging instruments
The Company holds hedging agreements to hedge foreign exchange rates, prices of raw materials and adjustment indicators. Under Chilean GAAP, pursuant to Technical Bulletin 57, theses were appraised according to variations in their fair value. The effects on income in those items defined as expected hedging transactions of items are deferred until settlement. However, under IFRS, these agreements have not demonstrated effective hedging, so the effects on variations in their fair value are charged directly to income at each year end.
3.3.8 Deferred taxes
Differences from deferred taxes correspond to deferred taxes recognized according to the new treatment of each of the financial items according to IFRS as well as the reversal of the complementary deferred tax accounts in effect under Chilean GAAP at December 31, 2008.
3.3.9 Investment in Associates
This corresponds to the effects of IFRS adoption by companies in which the parent company holds investments accounted for using the equity method.
3.3.10 Minimum dividend
Chilean Company Law requires companies to pay a cash dividend of at least 30% of net profits, unless otherwise decided by shareholders. Since paying a dividend on net profits in each year is a requirement, under IFRS, the dividend liability pursuant to Chilean law must be recorded on an accrual basis. This liability did not exist under Chilean GAAP.
NOTE 4 REPORTING BY SEGMENT
The Company provides information by segments according to IFRS 8 Operating Segments, that establishes standards for reporting by operating segment and related disclosures for products, services, and geographic areas.
The Companys Board of Directors and Management measures and evaluates performance of segments according to the operating income of each of the countries where there are franchises.
The operating segments are disclosed coherently with the presentation of internal reports to the senior officer in charge of operating decisions. That officer has been identified as the Company Board of Directors, which makes strategic decisions.
The segments defined by the Company for strategic decision-making are geographic. Therefore, the reporting segments correspond to:
· Chilean operations
· Brazilian operations
· Argentine operations
The three operating segments conduct their business through the production and sale of soft drinks, other beverages, and packaging.
The expenses and income associated with corporate management were assigned to the Chilean operation in the operating segments soft drinks.
The total income by segment includes sales to unrelated customers, as indicated in the Companys consolidated statement of income, as well as inter-segment sales.
A summary of the operations by segment of the Company is detailed as follows, according to IFRS:

The main movements for the year are detailed as follows:
Holdfab2 Participacoes Societarias Ltda. was established in Brazil on March 23, 2010, along with the Coca-Cola bottlers for the purpose of concentrating their investments in the company Leon Junior S.A., in which our subsidiary Rio de Janeiro Refrescos Ltda. has a 36.40% ownership interest, capital contributions amounted to ThCh$15,229,291 and were carried out on August 23, 2010. In turn, Holdfab 2 Participações Societárias Ltda. holds a 50% ownership interest in Leão Junior, hence the Company indirectly controls 18.2% of the latter.
Through a shareholders agreement involving the Brazilian company Holdfab Participacoes Ltda., in which our subsidiary Rio de Janeiro Refrescos held a 14.73% ownership interest, this company was divided into two companies: Mais Industria de Alimentos Ltda and Sucos del Valle do Brasil Ltda. The company holds a 6.16% ownership interest in each of them. The effects of this division began on January 1, 2010.
Vital Aguas S.A., an associate, decided to increase capital by ThCh$1,274,284 at a Special General Shareholders Meeting held in April 2009. The increase was to be made by issuing 5,000 shares. Embotelladora Andina S.A. subscribed and paid for 2,825 shares, for a price of ThCh$719,970.
On February 12, 2009, our Brazilian subsidiary Rio de Janeiro Refrescos Ltda, contributed to a capital increase approved by Holdfab Participações Ltda, in which it holds an interest of 14.732%. This entailed a payment of ThCh$217,637.

(1) In 1999, the Companys subsidiary Rio Janeiro Refrescos Ltda. brought a tax lawsuit against the Brazilian Treasury for alleged unconstitutionality in the collection of the tax called CPMF (Contribuição Provisória sobre Movimentação Financeira) on the debits and credits to bank current accounts. While the subsidiary obtained a provisional suspension of said payments from the Courts of Justice, the corresponding tax obligation was still provisioned. In November 2006, the Courts of Justice ruled the constitutionality of the referred tax and Refrescos came to an agreement with the Brazilian Treasury to divide payments in 60 installments.

16.2.4 Restrictions
The following restrictions apply to the issuance and placement of the Companys bonds on the Chilean market in 2001 for a total of UF 3,700,000. Of that amount, UF 3,508,794.30 is outstanding:
· Embotelladora Andina S.A. must maintain a debt level in which consolidated financial liabilities do not exceed 1.20 times the consolidated Equity. For these purposes, consolidated financial liabilities will be considered to be current interest-accruing liabilities, namely: (i) Other financial liabilities, plus (ii) Other non-current financial liabilities. Total Equity plus non-controlling interests will be considered consolidated Equity.
· Consolidated assets must be kept free of any pledge, mortgage or lien for an amount at least equal to 1.30 times the consolidated unsecured current liabilities of the issuer.
· The franchise of The Coca-Cola Company in Chile, called Metropolitan Region, must be maintained and in no way forfeited, sold, assigned or transferred to a third party. This franchise is for the elaboration, production, sale and distribution of Coca-Cola products and brands according to the bottlers agreement or periodically renewable licenses.
· The territory now under franchise to the Company by The Coca-Cola Company in Argentina or Brazil, which is used for the preparation, production, sale and distribution of Coca-Cola products and brands, must not be forfeited, sold, assigned or transferred to a third party, provided such territory represents more than 40% of the adjusted consolidated operating flow of the Company.
The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants at December 31, 2010; at December 31 and January 1, 2009.
16.2.5 Repurchased bonds
In addition to UF bonds, the Company holds bonds issued by itself that it has repurchased in full through companies that are integrated in the consolidation:
Through its subsidiaries, Abisa Corp S.A. (formerly Pacific Sterling), Embotelladora Andina S.A. repurchased its Yankee Bonds issued on the U.S. Market during the years 2000, 2001, 2002, 2007 and 2008. The entire placement amounted to US$350 million, of which US$200 million are outstanding and are presented after deducting the long-term liability from the other financial liabilities item.
Rio de Janeiro Refrescos Ltda. holds a liability corresponding to a US$75 million bond issue expiring in December 2012, with semi-annual interest payments. At December 31, 2010 and 2009 and January 1, 2009, those bonds were held in full by Abisa Corp S.A., (formerly Pacific Sterling). Consequently, the assets and liabilities relating to that transaction have been eliminated from these consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, that transaction has been treated as an investment by the group in the Brazilian subsidiary, so the effects of foreign exchange differences between the dollar and the functional currency of each of the entities have been charged to other comprehensive income.
16.3 Liability for Banking fees
These amounts are liabilities for banking fees on bonds owed by our subsidiary, Rio de Janeiro Refrescos Ltda.:

20.2 Dividend policy
According to Chilean law, cash dividends must be paid equal to at least 30% of annual net profits, barring a unanimous vote by shareholders to the contrary. If there is no net profit in a given year, the company will not be legally obligated to pay dividends from retained earnings. At the 2010 annual shareholders meeting, the shareholders authorized the board to pay interim dividends during July and October 2010 and January 2011, at its discretion.
During 2009 and 2010, the shareholders meeting approved an extraordinary dividend payment against the retained earnings fund in light of significant cash generation. We cannot guarantee that those payments will be repeated in the future.
Regarding Circular Letter N°1945 of the Chilean Superintendence of Securities and Insurance, the Company does not present any adjustments to be made in order to determine distributable net earnings to comply with minimum legal amounts.
Pursuant to Circular Letter N° 1,945 of the Chilean Superintendence of Securities and Insurance dated September 29, 2009, during the session held October 26, 2010, the Companys Board of Directors decided to maintain the initial adjustments of adopting IFRS as retained earnings for future distribution.
Retained earnings at the date of IFRS adoption amounted to ThCh$19,260,703, of which ThCh$935,908 have been realized at December 31, 2010 and are available for distribution as dividends in accordance with the following:

NOTE 21 HEDGE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
The company held the following hedge liabilities at December 31, 2010; December 31 and January 1, 2009.
21.1 Currency forwards for highly probable expected transactions:
At December 31, 2010, the Company had contracts to hedge the foreign exchange rate in foreign currency purchases of property, plant and equipment to be made in 2011, for a total of Th$ 4,841. They were valued at fair value, resulting in a net loss of ThCh$913,378. Since the contracts do not meet the documentation requirements to be considered hedges under IFRS, they have been valued at fair value and the effects have been recognized in income.
At December 31, 2010, the Company had contracts to mitigate changes in the foreign exchange rate on purchases of property, plant and equipment in foreign currencies to be made in 2011, for a total of ThUS$61,815. These were valued at fair value, resulting in a net loss of ThCh$485,983. Since the contracts do not meet the documentation requirements of the IFRS to be considered hedges, they have been measured at fair value with all changes being recorded through profit and loss.
During 2009, the Company had contracts to mitigate changes in the foreign exchange rate on purchases of property, plant and equipment in foreign currencies for a total of ThUS$10,483, which matured during the same year. They were valued at fair value, resulting in a net loss of ThCh$342,213. Since the contracts do not meet the IFRS documentation requirements to be considered hedges, they have been measured at fair value with all changes being recorded through profit and loss.
21.2 Foreign currency forward of items recognized in the accounting:
At January 1, 2009, the Company had contracts to mitigate the foreign exchange impact of foreign-currency-denominated assets totaling ThUS$32,886. Those contracts expire in the first quarter of 2009. They were valued at fair value, which resulted in a net profit of ThCh$1,039,841. Since these contracts do not meet the documentation requirements of IFRS to be treated as hedging, they have been measured at fair value with all changes being recorded through profit and loss.
21.3 Forward of UF (unidad de fomento) adjustment for items recognized in the accounting:
At December 31, 2009, the Company had contracts to compensate cash flows in Chilean pesos of financial investments denominated in Unidades de Fomento, amounting to UF 143,115, Those contracts expire in the first quarter of 2010. They were valued at fair value, which resulted in a net profit of ThCh$13,083. Since these contracts do not meet the documentation requirements of IFRS to be treated as hedging, they have been measured at fair value with all changes being recorded through profit and loss
21.4 Raw material price swap:
At December 31, 2010 and at December 31, 2009, the Company had sugar sales contracts with the London Exchange to hedge a variable price in the supply of sugar during 2010. These contracts expired during 2010, and were accounted for at fair value. During the year ended December 31, 2010 these contracts generated net earnings amounting to ThCh$2,121,469. During the year ended December 31, 2009 these contracts represented a loss amounting to ThCh$2,079,511. Since these contracts do not meet the documentation requirements of IFRS to be treated as hedging, they have been treated as investment contracts and the effects have been charged directly to income. See also Note 2.11 Fair value hierarchy.
Fair value hierarchy
At December 31, 2010, the Company did not have any open sugar sales contracts. The Company had a total liability related to its foreign exchange forward contracts of ThCh$ 917,219, which are classified within the other current non-financial liabilities and are carried at fair value on the statement of financial position. The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining and disclosing the fair value of financial instruments by valuation technique:
Level 1: quoted (unadjusted) prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly
Level 3: techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data
During the reporting period ended December 31, 2010, there were no transfers of items between fair value measurements categories all of which were valued during the period using level 3.

NOTE 23 FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The Groups businesses are exposed to diverse financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange rate risk, fair value interest rate risk and price risk). The Groups global risk management program concentrates on the uncertainty of financial markets and tries to minimize potentially adverse effects on the financial returns of the Group. The Group uses derivatives to hedge certain risks. Below is a description of the primary policies established by the Group to manage financial risks.
Interest rate risk
As of December 31, 2010, the Company carried all of its debt at a fixed rate. Consequently, the risk of fluctuations in market interest rates as compared to the Companys cash flows is low.
Foreign currency risk
Sales revenues earned by the Company are linked to the local currencies of countries in which it does business. The composition for this year is provided below:
CHILEAN PESO |
|
BRAZILIAN REAL |
|
ARGENTINE PESO |
|
33 |
% |
46 |
% |
21 |
% |
Since the Companys income is not tied to the U.S. Dollar, the policy of managing that risk, meaning the gap between assets and liabilities denominated in that currency, has been to hold financial investments in dollardenominated instruments for at least the equivalent of the liabilities denominated in that currency.
Additionally and depending on market conditions, the Companys policy is also to make foreign currency hedge contracts to reduce the foreign exchange rate impact on cash outflows expressed in American dollars, corresponding mainly to payments made to raw material suppliers. In accordance with the percentage of raw material purchases that are indexed to the US Dollar, if the currencies were to devalue by 5% in the three countries where the Company operates, it would generate a decrease in income of ThCh$5,498,365.
The exposure to conversion differences of subsidiaries abroad (Brazil and Argentina), because of the difference between monetary assets and liabilities, i.e., those denominated in a local currency and consequently exposed to foreign currency translation risk from translation from their functional currency to the presentation currency of the consolidated statements, is only hedged when it is predicted that material adverse differences could occur and when the cost associated with such hedging is deemed reasonable by the management. In terms of income and the current scenario, where the appreciation of the Chilean peso with respect to the U.S. dollar is almost the same as the appreciation of the Brazilian real with respect to the U.S. Dollar, there is currently no significant difference upon translation of these two currencies. On the other hand, the existence of a devaluation process of the Argentine peso with respect to the U.S. dollar and thus to the Chilean peso, which is in the process of appreciation, originates negative effects on income. If the Argentine peso were to devalue 5% more than it did during the year against the U.S. dollar, considering a 5% higher appreciation of the Chilean peso than what occurred during the year, the negative effect on income would have been ThCh$ 2,229,886. On the other hand, in terms of shareholders equity, this same scenario would cause the rest of the conversion of asset and liability accounts to result in a shareholders equity decrease of ThCh$2,654,409.
Commodities risk
The Company faces a risk of price fluctuations in the international markets for sugar, aluminum and PET resin, which are inputs required to produce beverages and, as a whole, account for 35% to 40% of operating costs. Procurement and anticipated purchase contracts are made frequently to minimize and/or stabilize this risk when market conditions warrant. Commodity hedges have also been used. The probable effect on these financial statements if there was a 5% increase in the prices of raw materials would be an approximate income decrease of ThCh$6,929,718. In order to minimize and/or stabilize this risk, we frequently enter into anticipated purchase and supply agreements when market conditions are favorable. We have also used commodity hedge agreements.
