PRESENTATION OF INFORMATION
 
In this annual report on Form 20-F, unless the context otherwise requires, references to “Lan Airlines” are to Lan Airlines S.A., the unconsolidated operating entity, and references to “LAN,” “we,” “us” or the “Company” are to Lan Airlines S.A. and its consolidated subsidiaries. All references to “Chile” are references to the Republic of Chile.
 
This annual report contains conversions of certain Chilean peso amounts into U.S. dollars at specified rates solely for the convenience of the reader. These conversions should not be construed as representations that the Chilean peso amounts actually represent such U.S. dollar amounts or could be converted into U.S. dollars at the rate indicated. Unless we specify otherwise, all references to “$,” “US$,” “U.S. dollars” or “dollars” are to United States dollars, references to “pesos,” “Chilean pesos” or “Ch$” are to Chilean pesos and references to “UF” are to Unidades de Fomento, a daily indexed Chilean peso-denominated monetary unit that takes into account the effect of the Chilean inflation rate. Unless we indicate otherwise, the U.S. dollar equivalent for information in Chilean pesos is based on the “dólar observado” or “observed” exchange rate published by Banco Central de Chile (which we refer to as the Central Bank of Chile) on December 31, 2010, which was Ch$468.37=US$1.00. The observed exchange rate on April 29, 2011, was Ch$460.04 =US$1.00. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York does not report a noon buying rate for Chilean pesos. See “Key Information—Exchange Rates” under Item 3.
 
Lan Airlines and the majority of our subsidiaries (including our main cargo subsidiary Lan Cargo S.A., or Lan Cargo) maintain their accounting records and prepare their financial statements in U.S. dollars. Some of our other subsidiaries, however, maintain their accounting records and prepare their financial statements in Chilean pesos or Argentinean pesos. Our audited consolidated financial statements include the results of these subsidiaries translated into U.S. dollars. International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”), require assets and liabilities to be translated at period-end exchange rates, revenue and expense accounts at monthly average rates.
 
Our audited consolidated financial statements for the periods ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were prepared in accordance with IFRS.  Prior to 2009 our audited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Chile (“Chilean GAAP”).  IFRS differs in certain significant respects from Chilean GAAP. As a result, our financial information presented under IFRS prior to 2009 is not directly comparable to our financial information presented with respect to previous years under Chilean GAAP. Accordingly, readers should avoid such comparison.
 
We have rounded percentages and certain U.S. dollar and Chilean peso amounts contained in this annual report for ease of presentation. Any discrepancies in any table between totals and the sums of the amounts listed are due to rounding.
 
This annual report contains certain terms that may be unfamiliar to some readers. You can find a glossary of these terms on page 3 of this annual report.

In 2008, the Company recorded a provision of US$109.0 million in Other gains/losses in connection with a plea agreement entered into with the United States Department of Justice regarding an antitrust investigation related to our cargo business (see “Information on the Company—Business of the Company—Cargo Operations—Cargo Related Investigations,” under Item 4). As of December 31, 2010 the Company recorded a US$14.0 million gain (pre-tax) due to the reversal of a portion of the provision related to the investigation in the cargo business carried out by the European Commission.  This was as a result of the fine announced in November 2010, which was lower than the amount provided for.   This reversal is recorded in Other gains/(losses).
 
(5)
As of December 31, 2008, 2009 and 2010 we had 338,790,909 common shares outstanding, which was equivalent to 338,790,909 American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”).
 
(6)
In August 2007, the Company implemented a change in its methodology used for calculating cargo ATKs in order to better represent the available capacity in the bellies of passenger aircraft. Cargo RTKs were not affected by this change. Historical data has been modified accordingly for comparison purposes.

Although most of our revenues and expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars, some are denominated in different currencies, such as the Chilean peso. Fluctuations in foreign exchange rates could lead to changes in the value of these items in U.S. dollars. Nevertheless, the impact on our results stemming from any such fluctuations is significantly mitigated by the fact that 85% of our revenues and 60% of our operating expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars.

In accordance with the Chilean Corporation Act and Regulation thereof, Ley sobre Sociedades Anónimas No. 18,046 and the Reglamento de Sociedades Anónimas, collectively known as the Chilean Corporation Law, we must pay annual cash dividends equal to at least 30% of our annual consolidated distributable net income each year (calculated in accordance with IFRS), subject to limited exceptions. On April 29, 2011 our Shareholders’ Meeting approved the payment of aggregate dividends for 2010 in the amount of US$209,852,536.48 to be paid in May 19, 2011.  Such ividends include two interim dividends paid in August 2010 and January 2011. The table below sets forth the cash dividends per common share and per ADS, as well as the number of common shares entitled to such dividends, for the years indicated. Dividends per common share amounts have not been adjusted for inflation and reflect common share amounts outstanding immediately prior to the distribution of such dividend. In August 2007, LAN modified its ADR to common share ratio from 5:1 to 1:1.

Our board of directors has the authority to declare interim dividends. Year-end dividends, if any, are declared by our shareholders at our annual meeting. For a description of our dividend policy, see “Financial Information—Other Financial Information—Dividend Policy” under Item 8.
 
We declare cash dividends in U.S. dollars, but make dividend payments in Chilean pesos, converted from U.S. dollars at the observed exchange rate two days prior to the day we first make payment to shareholders. Payments of cash dividends to holders of American Depositary Receipts, or ADRs, if any, are made in Chilean pesos to the custodian, which converts those Chilean pesos into U.S. dollars and delivers U.S. dollars to the depositary for distribution to holders. In the event that the custodian is unable to convert immediately the Chilean currency received as dividends into U.S. dollars, the amount of U.S. dollars payable to holders of ADRs may be adversely affected by a devaluation of the Chilean currency that may occur before such dividends are converted and remitted.

Risk Factors
 
We wish to caution readers that the following important factors, and those important factors described in other reports submitted to, or filed with, the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the “SEC,” among other factors, could affect our actual results and could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. In particular, as we are a non-U.S. company, there are risks associated with investing in our American Depositary Shares, or ADSs, that are not typical for investments in the shares of U.S. companies. Prior to making an investment decision, you should carefully consider all of the information contained in this document, including the following risk factors.
 
Risks Related to our Proposed Combination with TAM

The completion of the proposed combination is subject to many conditions precedent and if these are not satisfied or waived the proposed combination will not be completed.

The commencement of the exchange offer is subject to certain conditions set forth in the transaction agreements as described under “Transaction Agreements—Conditions to Commencement of the Exchange Offer,” under Item 4, including receipt of all required regulatory approvals (including the required approvals from the Comissão de Valores Mobiliários, or “CVM”, the Superintendencia de Valores y Seguros (the Chilean Securities and Insurance Supervisor, or “SVS”), and the SEC), approval of the proposed combination by the shareholders of LAN and the condition that the holders of not more than 2.5% of our outstanding common shares exercise their appraisal rights under Chilean law.  The completion of the exchange offer is also subject to certain conditions set forth in the transaction agreements as described under “Transaction Agreements—Conditions to Completion of the Exchange Offer,” under Item 4, including the conditions that the exchange offer be accepted by (i) the holders of at least 66 2/3 % of the outstanding shares of TAM not owned by TAM’s controlling shareholders and their affiliates (which is the minimum threshold required to permit the delisting of TAM stock from the BM&FBovespa (which we refer to as “Bovespa”) after completion of the proposed combination), and (ii) the holders of a sufficient number of TAM shares so that the sum of (A) the total number of TAM shares that have accepted the exchange offer and (B) the number of TAM shares owned by TAM’s controlling shareholders is more than 95% of the outstanding TAM shares (which is the minimum threshold required to permit a statutory squeeze-out under Brazilian law of all TAM shares that do not accept the exchange offer after completion of the proposed combination).   Certain of these conditions may not be waived without written agreement of both LAN and TAM’s controlling shareholders, and neither LAN nor TAM’s controlling shareholders has any obligation to waive any conditions not satisfied on or prior to the expiration of the exchange offer. Therefore, even if we are willing to waive an unsatisfied condition, we may be unable to complete the exchange offer if TAM’s controlling shareholders refuse to waive the condition.  In addition, the obligation of TAM’s controlling shareholders under the transaction agreements to contribute their TAM shares into the proposed combination prior to the completion of the exchange offer is subject to certain conditions relating to the operations and business of LAN and certain events outside of our control.  If any of these conditions is not satisfied or waived, the proposed combination will not be completed.

The proposed combination cannot be completed unless we receive consents and clearances from regulatory authorities and such authorities could impose conditions that could adversely affect LAN and/or the combined companies

Before the proposed combination of LAN and TAM may be completed, applicable waiting periods must expire or terminate under antitrust and competition laws and various approvals or consents must be obtained from regulatory entities, including the Tribunal de Defensa de la Libre Competencia, or the “TDLC.”  See the section entitled “Information on the Company—Business–Proposed Combination with TAM,” under Item 4, for a discussion of the status of the review of the proposed combination by the TDLC.  In deciding whether to grant antitrust or regulatory clearances, the relevant governmental entities will consider, among other things, the effect the proposed combination will have on competition and operations within their relevant jurisdictions. The terms and conditions of the approvals that are granted may impose requirements, limitations or costs or place restrictions on the conduct of the combined companies’ businesses. The transaction agreements expressly provide that neither we nor TAM is required to sell, hold separate or otherwise encumber any of our respective assets or to take the other actions specified therein in order to obtain such approvals and thus either company may refuse to complete the proposed combination on the basis of those regulatory conditions. There can be no assurance that regulators will not impose conditions, terms, obligations or restrictions or that such conditions, terms, obligations or restrictions will not have the effect of delaying completion of the proposed combination or imposing additional material costs on, or materially limiting the revenues of, the combined companies following the proposed combination. In addition, it is a condition to our and TAM’s obligation to complete the proposed combination that no governmental authority shall have issued any law or order making the proposed combination illegal or materially limiting or impairing the ownership or operation of any material part of the combined companies.

Any delay in completing the proposed combination may reduce or eliminate the benefits we expect to be achieved as a result of the proposed combination

In addition to the required regulatory clearances, the proposed combination is subject to a number of other conditions beyond our control that may prevent, delay or otherwise materially adversely affect its completion. We cannot predict whether or when these other conditions will be satisfied. Furthermore, the requirements for obtaining the required clearances and approvals could delay the completion of the proposed combination for a significant period of time or prevent it from occurring. Any delay in completing the proposed combination could cause the combined companies not to realize some or all of the synergies that we expect to achieve if the proposed combination is successfully completed within its expected time frame.

Failure to complete the proposed combination could negatively impact our stock price and future business and financial results

If the proposed combination is not completed, our ongoing businesses may be adversely affected, and we would be subject to several risks, including the following:

 
·
being required to pay a termination fee to TAM of $200 million and reimburse up to $25 million of TAM’s expenses under certain circumstances provided in the transaction agreements;

 
·
having to pay certain costs relating to the proposed combination, such as legal, accounting, financial advisor and printing fees; and
 
 
·
having had our management focus on the proposed combination instead of pursuing other opportunities that could have been beneficial to us.
 
If the proposed combination is not completed, we cannot assure our stockholders that these risks will not materialize and will not materially adversely affect our business, financial results and stock price.

The fairness opinion obtained by our board of directors from our financial advisor will not reflect changes in circumstances between signing the transaction agreements and the completion of the proposed combination

While our board of directors received a fairness opinion from J.P. Morgan, our financial advisor, before we entered into the transaction agreements, we have not obtained an updated fairness opinion as of the date of this Form 20-F. Changes in our operations and prospects of those of TAM, general market and economic conditions and other factors which may be beyond our control and on which the fairness opinion was based may alter the value of LAN or TAM and/or the prices of our common shares or the shares of TAM by the time the proposed combination is completed. The fairness opinion speaks only as of the date of the opinion and not as of the time the proposed combination will be completed or as of any other date. Because we do not anticipate asking our financial advisor to update its fairness opinion, the January 18, 2011 fairness opinion does not address the fairness of the exchange ratios, from a financial point of view, to our shareholders at the time the proposed combination will be completed.
 
 
12

 

The transaction agreements contain provisions that could discourage a potential competing acquirer of LAN

The transaction agreements require our board of directors to recommend that its shareholders approve the proposed combination and does not permit our board of directors to withdraw or adversely modify those recommendations. The transaction agreements also contains “no shop” provisions that prohibit us from soliciting, initiating or encouraging any competing third party proposals, including acquisitions of our equity securities or material assets, and there are no exceptions to these provisions. In addition, if the transaction agreements are terminated under certain circumstances, we may be required to pay to TAM a termination fee of $200 million and to reimburse TAM for up to $25 million of expenses incurred by TAM in connection with the transaction agreements and the proposed combination. See “Key Information—Transaction Agreements” and “Key Information—The Transaction Agreements—Termination,” under Item 4.  These provisions could discourage a potential third-party acquiror that might have an interest in acquiring all or a significant portion of LAN from considering or proposing that acquisition, even if it were prepared to pay consideration with a value per share higher than the benefits LAN shareholders may receive from the proposed combination, or might result in a potential third-party acquiror proposing to pay a lower price to the LAN shareholders than it might otherwise have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the $225 million termination fee and expense reimbursement that may become payable in certain circumstances.
 
Uncertainties associated with the proposed combination may cause a loss of management personnel and other key employees that could adversely affect LAN, TAM and/or the combined companies

The success of the operations of LAN, TAM and the combined companies is dependent, among other things, on the experience and industry knowledge of their senior management and other key employees and their ability to execute their business plans. In order to be successful, LAN, TAM and the combined companies must be able to retain their senior management and other key employees and their ability to attract highly qualified personnel in the future. Current and prospective employees of LAN and TAM may experience uncertainty about their roles within the combined companies following completion of the proposed combination, which may have an adverse effect on the ability of LAN, TAM and/or the combined companies to retain or attract senior management and other key employees. Competition for highly qualified personnel in the various localities and business segments in which LAN and TAM operate is intense. No assurances can be given that LAN, TAM or, after completion of the proposed combination, the combined companies will be able to retain or attract senior management and other key employees to the same extent that LAN and TAM have previously been able to do so.

Resales of the common shares we issue in the mergers may cause the market price of such shares to fall.

As of April 27, 2011, 339,310,509 common shares (including those represented by the ADSs) were issued and outstanding (34.01% of which are beneficially owned by LAN’s controlling shareholders) and 1,689,491 common shares were subject to issuance upon exercise of outstanding options and other rights to purchase such shares.  In the mergers, we expect to issue a significant amount of common shares (including those represented by the ADSs) to the holders of TAM shares in exchange for their TAM shares or TAM ADSs, although the actual number of common shares issued will depend on the extent to which holders of TAM shares or TAM ADSs elect to participate in the exchange offer. If the holders of all of the outstanding TAM shares (other than TAM’s controlling shareholders) tender their shares into the exchange offer and, except for the shares of LAN contemplated to be issued pursuant to the transaction agreements,  there are no new issuances of shares of LAN or TAM (including those common shares subject to issuance upon exercise of outstanding options and other rights to purchase those shares that have not been exercised), then after completion of the mergers the issued and outstanding shares of LAN will be distributed approximately as follows: 13.67% of the common shares issued and outstanding  at that time will be held by TAM’s controlling shareholders, 15.65% of the common shares issued and outstanding  at that time will be held by TAM shareholders (other than TAM’s controlling shareholders), 24.07% of the common shares issued and outstanding  at that time will be held by LAN’s controlling shareholders and 46.60% LAN’s shareholders (other than LAN’s controlling shareholders). If there are substantial sales of the newly issued common shares shortly after the mergers, this could adversely affect the market for, and the market price of, our common shares and the ADSs.

We have and will continue to incur significant costs and expenses in connection with the proposed combination and integration of the business operations of LAN and TAM.

We have incurred and expect to continue to incur substantial expenses in connection with the proposed combination and the integration of LAN and TAM. Non-recurring expenses expected to be incurred in connection with the proposed combination are anticipated to be approximately $ 25 million in 2011. These costs and expenses include financial advisory, legal and accounting fees and expenses, reorganization and restructuring costs, severance/employee benefit-related expenses, filing fees, printing expenses and other related charges. Some of these costs are payable regardless of whether the proposed combination is completed. There are also are a large number of processes, policies, procedures, operations, technologies and systems that must be integrated in connection with the proposed combination. While both we and TAM have assumed that a certain level of expenses would be incurred in connection with these transactions, there are many factors beyond our control that could affect the total amount or the timing of the integration expenses. Moreover, there could also be significant costs in compensating dissenting shareholders of LAN who exercise their appraisal rights under Chilean law.

There may also be additional unanticipated significant costs in connection with the transactions discussed below under “Key Information—The Transaction Agreements—Overview,” under Item 4, that we may not recoup. These costs and expenses could, particularly in the near term, exceed the savings that we expect the combined companies to achieve from the elimination of duplicative expenses and the realization of economies of scale, other efficiencies and cost savings. Although we expect that these savings will offset these transaction- and combination-related costs over time, this net benefit may not be achieved in the near term or at all.

We may be unable to fully realize the anticipated benefits of the proposed combination.

After completion of the proposed combination, we will change our name to “LATAM Airlines Group S.A.” (“LATAM”). The proposed combination involves bringing together two large and complex businesses that currently operate as independent public companies. We will be required to devote significant management attention and resources to integrating certain aspects of the business practices and operations of LAN and TAM. The success of the proposed combination will depend, in part, on our ability to realize anticipated revenue synergies, cost savings and growth opportunities by combining the businesses of LAN and TAM. We hope to generate synergies resulting from the consolidation of capabilities, rationalization of operations and headcount, greater efficiencies from increased scale and market integration, experience of product and service offerings and organic growth. There is a risk, however, that we may not be able to combine the businesses of LAN and TAM in a manner that permits us to realize these revenue synergies, cost savings and growth opportunities in the time, manner or amounts we currently expect, or at all. Potential difficulties we may encounter as part of the integration process include, among other things:

 
·
the inability to successfully combine the businesses of LAN and TAM in a manner that permits us to achieve the full revenue and cost synergies anticipated to result from the proposed combination;
 
 
·
complexities associated with managing the combined companies;
 
 
·
the need to implement, integrate and harmonize various business-specific operating procedures and systems, as well as the financial, accounting, information and other systems of LAN and TAM;
 
 
·
operational overlap among products and customer bases of LAN and TAM;
 
 
·
potential loss of key employees as a result of implementing the proposed combination; and
 
 
·
potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen increased expenses or delays associated with the exchange offer, the mergers and the other combination transactions, including one-time cash costs to integrate the two airlines that may exceed the one-time cash costs that we currently anticipate.
 
In addition, we and TAM have operated and, until the completion of the proposed combination, will continue to operate independently. It is possible that the integration process could result in:
 
 
14

 

 
·
diversion of management’s attention from their normal areas of responsibility to address integration issues; and
 
 
·
the disruption of, or the loss of momentum in, each company’s ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in its standards, controls, procedures and policies,
 
each of which could adversely affect each company’s ability to maintain good relationships with its customers, suppliers, employees and other constituencies or achieve the anticipated benefits of the proposed combination or could increase costs or reduce each company’s earnings or otherwise adversely affect the businesses, financial condition, results of operations and/or prospects of LATAM following the completion of the exchange offer and mergers. If they are achieved, actual revenue synergies, cost savings and efficiency and operational benefits may be lower and may take a longer time to achieve than we currently expect.

The integration of two large companies also presents significant management challenges. In order to achieve the anticipated benefits of the proposed combination of LAN and TAM, the operations of the two companies will need to be reorganized and their resources will need to be combined in a timely and flexible manner. There can be no assurance that we will be able to implement these steps as anticipated or at all. If we fail to achieve the planned restructuring effectively within the time frame that is currently contemplated or to the extent that is currently planned, or if for any other reason the expected synergies fail to materialize, the proposed combination may not produce the benefits we currently anticipate.

We will not control the voting shares or board of directors of TAM.

Under the terms of the transaction agreements, the controlling shareholders of TAM will retain ownership of at least 80% of the voting shares of TAM and will have the right to appoint 66 2/3% of the members of the board of directors of TAM and its subsidiaries. We will own the remaining voting shares of TAM and will have the right to appoint the remaining members of the board of directors of TAM and its subsidiaries. We will also own all of the non-voting shares of TAM, which will entitle us to substantially all of the economic rights in TAM. While we, the controlling shareholders of TAM and other parties have entered into shareholders agreements that establish agreements and restrictions relating to corporate governance in an attempt to balance our interests, as the owner of substantially all of the economic rights in TAM, with the interests of the controlling shareholders of TAM, as the continuing controlling shareholders of TAM, by, among other things, requiring the vote of the holders of at least 95% of the outstanding shares of TAM and/or supermajority approval of the board of directors of TAM prior to taking certain specified material corporate actions and decisions in respect of TAM and its subsidiaries, no assurances can be given that we and the controlling shareholders of TAM will be able to reach agreement with respect to such matters in the future and if we and they do not, our businesses, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be adversely affected. For further discussion of these arrangements, see “Transaction Agreements—Conditions to Commencement of the Exchange Offer,” under Item 4.

Our financial results will be more exposed to currency exchange rate fluctuations as a result of the proposed combination and the resulting increase in the proportion of assets, liabilities and earnings that are denominated in currencies other than Chilean pesos.

LATAM will prepare and present its consolidated financial statements in U.S. dollars. The proposed combination will significantly increase the proportion of our consolidated net assets, revenues and income in currencies other than U.S. dollars, primarily Chilean pesos and Brazilian reais. Our consolidated financial condition and results of operations will therefore be more sensitive to movements in foreign exchange rates. A depreciation of non-US dollar currencies relative to the US dollar could have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our future results will suffer if we cannot effectively manage our expanded operations following completion of the proposed combination.

Following the completion of the proposed combination, the size of the business of the combined companies will be significantly larger and more complex than the current business of LAN or TAM. Our future success will depend, in part, upon our ability to manage this expanded business, which will pose substantial challenges for management, including challenges related to the management and monitoring of new operations and associated increased costs and complexity. There can be no assurances that we will be successful or that we will realize the expected operating efficiencies, cost savings, revenue enhancements and other benefits we currently anticipate from the proposed combination.

The proposed combination could cause a downgrade of our credit ratings, which could have a negative effect on our business.

TAM currently has a lower credit rating than us and is more leveraged than us.  As a result of the proposed combination with TAM, our credit rating could be downgraded by one or more credit rating agencies, which could adversely affect the results and financial condition of the combined companies.  If our credit rating is downgraded, it could affect our ability to finance future fleet acquisitions and/or increase our financing costs.
 
Risks Related to our Operations and the Airline Industry
 
Our performance is heavily dependent on economic conditions in the countries in which we do business and negative economic conditions in those countries could have an adverse impact on our business.
 
Passenger and cargo demand is heavily cyclical and highly dependent on global and local economic growth, economic expectations and foreign exchange rate variations, among other things. In the past, our business has been negatively affected by global economic recessionary conditions, weak economic growth in Chile, recession in Argentina and poor economic performance in certain emerging market countries in which we operate.  The occurrence of similar events in the future could adversely affect our business.  In fact, starting as of late 2008, and during 2009, many of the countries we serve, including Chile, experienced economic slowdowns or recessions, which translated into a substantial weakening of demand.  We plan to continue to expand our operations based in Latin America and our performance will, therefore, continue to depend heavily on economic conditions in the region. Any of the following factors could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations in the countries in which we operate:
 
 
·
changes in economic or other governmental policies;
 
 
·
weak economic performance, including, but not limited to, low economic growth, low consumption and/or investment rates, and increased inflation rates; or
 
 
·
other political or economic developments over which we have no control.
 
Driven by the severe downturn in the global economy, including in the economies of many of the countries we serve, we began to experience weakening demand in cargo late in 2008, and this weak demand continued into 2009. However, we began to experience a recovery in cargo traffic in late 2009, which continued improving during 2010. If the regional economic environment continues its positive performance, demand in cargo may continue to grow during the current year. No assurance can be given that capacity reductions or other steps we may take will be adequate to offset any future reduction in our cargo and/or air travel demand.
 
The success of our business depends upon key regulatory issues and these issues may adversely affect our business and results of operations.
 
Our business is highly regulated and depends substantially upon the regulatory environment in the countries in which we operate or intend to operate. For example, price controls on fares may limit our ability to effectively apply customer segmentation profit maximization techniques (“passenger revenue management”) (management techniques utilizing passenger demand forecasting and fare mix optimization techniques to maximize profit for an airline) and adjust prices to reflect cost pressures. High levels of government regulation may limit the scope of our operations and our growth plans, especially in the event of deterioration of the relations between the countries in which we operate or the public perception of foreign companies in local markets. Accordingly, regulatory issues could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
 
 
16

 

Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected if we or certain aviation authorities (among them, those from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Ecuador, Mexico, Peru, Colombia and the United States) fail to maintain the required foreign and domestic governmental authorizations. In order to maintain the necessary authorizations issued by the Chilean Junta Aeronáutica Civil, which we refer to as the “JAC,” and technical operative authorizations issued by the Chilean Dirección General de Aeronáutica Civil, which we refer to as the “DGAC,” and other corresponding local authorities of the countries in which we operate, we must continue to comply with applicable statutes, rules and regulations pertaining to the airline industry, including any rules and regulations that may be adopted in the future.
 
We depend on strategic alliances or commercial relationships in many of the countries in which we operate and our business may suffer if any of our strategic alliances or commercial relationships terminates.
 
In many of the jurisdictions in which we operate, we have found it in our interest, to maintain a number of alliances and other commercial relationships. These alliances or commercial relationships allow us to enhance our network and, in some cases, to offer our customers services that we could not otherwise offer. If any of our strategic alliances or commercial relationships and, in particular, with American Airlines, Iberia, Qantas or oneworld® deteriorates, or any of these agreements are terminated, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be negatively affected.
 
Our business and results of operation may suffer if we fail to obtain and maintain routes, suitable airport access, slots and other operating permits.
 
Our business depends upon our access to key routes and airports. Our operations could be constrained by any delay or inability to gain access to key routes or airports, including:
 
 
·
limitations on our ability to process more passengers;
 
 
·
the imposition of flight capacity restrictions;
 
 
·
the inability to secure or maintain route rights in local markets or under bilateral agreements; or
 
 
·
the inability to maintain our existing slots and obtain additional slots.
 
We operate numerous international routes, subject to bilateral agreements and also internal flights within Chile, Argentina, Peru and other countries, subject to local route and airport access approvals. Bilateral aviation agreements as well as local aviation approvals frequently involve political and other considerations outside of our control. See “Information on the Company— Business of the Company—Regulation—Route Rights” under Item 4.
 
There can be no assurance that existing bilateral agreements between the countries in which our companies are based and permits from foreign governments will continue. A modification, suspension or revocation of one or more bilateral agreements could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The suspension of our permission to operate in certain airports or destinations or the imposition of other sanctions could also have a material adverse effect. We cannot assure that a change in a foreign government’s administration of current laws and regulations or that the adoption of new laws and regulations will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
If we are unable to obtain favorable take-off and landing authorizations at certain high-density airports, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain all requested authorizations and slots in the future because, among other factors, government policies regulating the distribution of the authorizations and slots are subject to change.
 
A failure to successfully implement our growth strategy would harm our business and the market value of the ADSs and our common shares.
 
Our growth strategy involves increasing the frequency of flights to the markets we currently serve and expanding our service to new markets. In order to carry out this strategy, we must be able to identify the appropriate geographic markets upon which to focus and to gain suitable airport access and route approval in these markets. There can be no assurance that the new markets we enter or in which we are seeking to expand our operations will provide passenger and cargo traffic that is sufficient to make our operations in those new markets profitable.
 
 
17

 

The expansion of our business will also require additional skilled personnel, equipment and facilities. An inability to hire and retain skilled personnel or secure the required equipment and facilities efficiently and cost-effectively may adversely affect our ability to execute our growth strategy. Expansion of our markets and flight frequencies may also strain our existing management resources and operational, financial and management information systems to the point that they may no longer be adequate to support our operations, requiring us to make significant expenditures in these areas.
 
Our business may be adversely affected by a downturn in the airline industry caused by exogenous events that affect travel behavior or increase costs, such as outbreak of disease, natural disasters, war or terrorist attacks.
 
Demand for air transportation may be adversely impacted by exogenous events, such as natural disasters, epidemics, terrorist attacks, war or political and social instability. Situations such as these in one or more of the markets in which we operate could have a material impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, these types of situations could have a prolonged effect on air transportation demand and on certain cost items.
 
During January 2010, bad weather affected the city of Cuzco in Peru causing important human and material damage and severely affecting this tourist destination. This affected our operations, which led us to decrease our capacity in order to improve load factors. We estimate the net impact of decreased passenger operations to have been approximately US$15.0 million.
 
In addition, on February 27, 2010, an earthquake struck Chile causing major damages mainly in the southern regions of the country. This earthquake damaged the terminal building at the Santiago International Airport causing the suspension of LAN’s passenger services to and from Chile until March 1, 2010. Lan Cargo’s operations suffered no impact since Lan Cargo has flexibility to redesign itineraries if and when needed.  As of March 28, 2010, operations were restored to normal levels and the airport started to operate normally.  As of December 31, 2010, we estimate the net impact of decreased passenger operations due to the earthquake to have been approximately US$30 million.
 
Terrorist attacks may also have a severe adverse impact on the airline industry. For example, the terrorist attacks in the United States on September 11, 2001 substantially affected the airline industry, particularly foreign air carriers operating international service to and from the United States. Throughout South America, passenger traffic also decreased substantially, although the decrease was less severe than that in the United States. The airline industry experienced increased costs following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Airlines have been required to adopt additional security measures and may be required to comply with more rigorous security guidelines in the future.
 
In addition, fuel prices and supplies, which constitute a significant cost for us, may increase as a result of any future terrorist attacks, a general increase in hostilities or a reduction in output of fuel, voluntary or otherwise, by oil-producing countries. Such increases may result in both higher airline ticket prices and decreased demand for air travel generally, which could have an adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.  Presently, there is a trend towards increases in jet fuel prices because of the increased demand caused by the 2010 recovery in the global economy coupled with conflicts during February 2011 in Egypt and Libya that affect global fuel supply. It is impossible for us to predict if we will be able to fully protect ourselves against the volatility of fuel costs.
 
A significant portion of our cargo revenues comes from relatively few product types and may be impacted by events affecting their production or trade.
 
Our cargo demand, especially from Latin American exporters, is concentrated in a small number of product categories, such as fish and sea products and  produce exports from Chile and Peru, and fresh flowers from Ecuador and Colombia. Events that negatively affect the production or trade of these goods may adversely affect the volume of goods that we transport and may have a significant impact on our results of operations. Some of our cargo products are sensitive to foreign exchange rates and, therefore, traffic volumes could be impacted by the appreciation or depreciation of local currencies.

In mid 2007, there was an outbreak of infectious salmon anemia virus (“ISA Virus”) in Chile, which was temporarily contained during 2008 but has continued to affect exports since then. The outbreak of ISA Virus has caused, and may continue to cause, a significant decline in salmon exports and has had, and may continue to have, an adverse impact on our cargo operations.
 
Our operations are subject to fluctuations in the supply and cost of jet fuel, which could negatively impact our business.
 
Higher jet fuel prices or a shortage in the supply of fuel could cause a reduction in our scheduled service and could have a materially negative effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Jet fuel costs have historically accounted for a significant amount of our operating expenses, and accounted for approximately 30% of our operating expenses in 2010. Both the cost and availability of fuel are subject to many economic and political factors and events that we can neither control nor predict. We have entered into fuel hedging arrangements, but there can be no assurance that such arrangements will be adequate to protect us from a significant increase in fuel prices in the near future or in the long term. Also, while these hedging arrangements are designed to limit the effect of an increase in fuel prices, some of our hedging methods may also limit our ability to take advantage of any decrease in fuel prices. Although we have implemented measures to pass a portion of incremental fuel costs to our customers, our ability to lessen the impact of any increase using these types of mechanisms may also be limited.
 
We rely on maintaining a high daily aircraft utilization rate to increase our revenues, which makes us especially vulnerable to delays.
 
One of the key elements of our business strategy is to maintain a high daily aircraft utilization rate, which measures the number of flight hours we use our aircraft per day. High daily aircraft utilization allows us to maximize the amount of revenue we generate from our aircraft and is achieved, in part, by reducing turnaround times at airports and developing schedules that enable us to increase the average hours flown per day. Our rate of aircraft utilization could be adversely affected by a number of different factors that are beyond our control, including air traffic and airport congestion, adverse weather conditions and delays by third-party service providers relating to matters such as fueling and ground handling.
 
Furthermore, high aircraft utilization rates increase the risk that, if an aircraft falls behind schedule, it could remain behind schedule for up to two days. Such delays could result in a disruption in our operating performance, leading to customer dissatisfaction due to any resulting delays or missed connections.
 
We fly and depend upon Airbus and Boeing aircraft, and our business is at risk if we do not receive timely deliveries of aircraft, if aircraft from these companies becomes unavailable or if the public negatively perceives our aircraft.
 
As our fleet has grown, our reliance on Airbus and Boeing has also grown. As of February 28, 2011, we operated a fleet of 74 Airbus and 51 Boeing aircraft. These risks include:
 
 
·
our failure or inability to obtain Airbus or Boeing aircraft, parts or related support services on a timely basis because of high demand or other factors;
 
 
·
the interruption of fleet service as a result of unscheduled or unanticipated maintenance requirements for these aircraft;
 
 
·
the issuance by Chilean or other aviation authorities of other directives restricting or prohibiting the use of Airbus or Boeing aircraft, or requiring time-consuming inspections and maintenance;
 
 
·
the adverse public perception of a manufacturer as a result of an accident or other negative publicity; or
 
 
·
delays between the time we realize the need for new aircraft and the time it takes us to arrange for Airbus and Boeing or from a third-party provider to deliver this aircraft.
 
The occurrence of any one or more of these factors could restrict our ability to use aircraft to generate profits, respond to increased demands, or could otherwise limit our operations and adversely affect our business.
 
 
19

 

We are often affected by certain factors beyond our control, including weather conditions, which can affect our operations.
 
Revenues for airlines depend on the number of passengers carried, the fare paid by each passenger and service factors, such as the timeliness of flight departures and arrivals. During periods of fog, ice, low temperatures, storms or other adverse weather conditions, some or all of our flights may be cancelled or significantly delayed, reducing our revenues.
 
Losses and liabilities in the event of an accident involving one or more of our aircraft could materially affect our business.
 
We are exposed to potential catastrophic losses in the event of an aircraft accident, terrorist incident or any other similar event. There can be no assurance that, as a result of an aircraft accident or significant incident:
 
 
·
we will not need to increase our insurance coverage;
 
 
·
our insurance premiums will not increase significantly;
 
 
·
our insurance coverage will fully cover all of our liability; or
 
 
·
we will not be forced to bear substantial losses.
 
Substantial claims resulting from an accident or significant incident in excess of our related insurance coverage could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, any aircraft accident, even if fully insured, could cause the negative public perception that our aircraft are less safe or reliable than those operated by other airlines, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Insurance premiums may also increase due to an accident or incident affecting one of our airline affiliates or alliance partners or affecting other airlines.
 
High levels of competition in the airline industry may adversely affect our level of operations.
 
Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected by high levels of competition within the industry, particularly the entrance of new competitors into the markets in which we operate. Airlines compete primarily over fare levels, frequency and dependability of service, brand recognition, passenger amenities (such as frequent flyer programs) and the availability and convenience of other passenger or cargo services. New and existing airlines could enter our markets and compete with us on any of these bases. Several of our competitors are larger than us and have greater brand recognition and greater resources than we do. Competing carriers include investor-owned, government-subsidized and national flag carriers of foreign countries as well as low-cost carriers offering discounted fares. The U.S.-Chile and other open skies agreements may subject us to further competition from international carriers. In addition to traditional competition among airline companies, we face competition from companies that provide ground transportation, especially in our domestic cargo and passenger businesses, as well as sea transportation for our cargo business. Competition could reduce our passenger traffic and cargo demand, forcing us to reduce our fare levels, which could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and level of operations.
 
Some of our competitors may receive external support which could negatively impact our competitive position.
 
Some of our competitors may receive support from external sources, such as their national governments, which may be unavailable to us. Support may include, among others, subsidies, financial aid or tax waivers. This support could place us at a competitive disadvantage and adversely affect our operations and financial performance.
 
If we are unable to incorporate leased aircraft into our fleet at acceptable rates and terms in the future, our business could be adversely affected.
 
A large portion of our aircraft are subject to long-term operating leases. Our operating leases typically run from three to twelve years from the date of delivery. We may face more competition for, or a limited supply of, leased aircraft, making it difficult for us to negotiate on competitive terms upon expiration of our current operating leases or to lease additional capacity required for our targeted level of operations. If we are forced to pay higher lease rates in the future to maintain our capacity and the number of aircraft in our fleet, our profitability could be adversely affected.
 
 
20

 

We are incorporating various new technologies and equipment and their phase-in may have a negative impact on our service and operating standards.
 
In recent years we have decided to incorporate a number of new aircraft, equipment and systems. The decision to incorporate these new elements has been based on their potential to enhance customer satisfaction, increase efficiency and/or streamline processes. However, the phase-in of these elements may temporarily result in lower service and operating standards, which could affect how our customers perceive us and have a negative impact on our results of operations.
 
Our business may be adversely affected if we are unable to meet our significant future financing requirements.
 
We require significant amounts of financing to meet our aircraft capital requirements and may require additional financing to fund our other business needs. We cannot guarantee that we will have access to or be able to arrange for financing in the future on favorable terms. If we are unable to obtain financing for a significant portion of our capital requirements, our ability to acquire new aircraft or to expand operations could be impaired and our business negatively affected.
 
Our business may be adversely affected by our high degree of debt and aircraft lease obligations compared to our equity capital.
 
We have a high degree of debt and payment obligations under our aircraft operating leases compared to equity capital. In order to finance our debt, we depend in part on our cash flow from operations. We cannot assure you that in the future we will be able to meet our payment obligations. In addition, the majority of our property and equipment is subject to liens securing our indebtedness. In the event that we fail to make payments on the secured indebtedness, creditors’ enforcement of liens could limit or end our ability to use the affected property and equipment to fulfill our operational needs and thus generate revenue.
 
Increases in insurance costs and/or significant reductions in coverage could harm our financial condition and results of operations.
 
Major events affecting the aviation insurance industry (such as terrorist attacks, hijackings or airline crashes) may result in significant increases of the airlines' insurance premium or in significant decreases of insurance coverage, as it happened after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.  Increases in insurance costs and/or significant reductions in coverage could harm our financial condition and results of operations.
 
Problems with air traffic control systems or other technical failures could interrupt our operations and have a material adverse effect on our business.
 
Our operations, including our ability to deliver customer service, are dependent on the effective operation of our equipment, including our aircraft, maintenance systems and reservation systems. Our operations are also dependent on the effective operation of domestic and international air traffic control systems and the air traffic control infrastructure in the markets in which we operate. Equipment failures, personnel shortages, air traffic control problems and other factors that could interrupt operations could adversely affect our operations and financial results as well as our reputation.
 
Our financial success depends on the availability and performance of key personnel, who are not subject to non-competition restrictions.
 
Our success depends to a significant extent on the ability of our senior management team and key personnel to operate and manage our business effectively. Our employment agreements with key personnel do not contain any non-competition provisions applicable upon termination. Competition for highly qualified personnel is intense. If we lose any executive officer, senior manager or other key employee and are not able to obtain an adequate replacement, or if we are unable to attract and retain new qualified personnel, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
 
 
21

 

Our business may experience adverse consequences if we are unable to reach satisfactory collective bargaining agreements with our unionized employees.
 
Approximately 39% of our employees, including administrative personnel, cabin crews, flight attendants, pilots and maintenance technicians are members of unions and have contracts and collective bargaining agreements which expire on a regular basis. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected by a failure to reach agreement with any labor union representing such employees or by an agreement with a labor union that contains terms that are not in line with our expectations or that prevent us from competing effectively with other airlines.
 
Pressure by employees could cause operating disruptions and negatively impact our business.
 
Certain employee groups such as pilots, flight attendants, mechanics and our airport personnel have highly specialized skills. As a consequence, actions by these groups, such as strikes, walk-outs or stoppages, could severely disrupt our operations and negatively impact our operating and financial performance, as well as how our customers perceive us.
 
For example, during the third quarter of 2001, members of one of our pilot unions implemented a series of actions that disrupted our services prior to the negotiation of their collective bargaining agreement, which had a negative impact on our operations and our profitability.
 
Increases in our labor costs, which constitute a substantial portion of our total operating costs, could directly impact our earnings.
 
Labor costs constitute a significant percentage of our total operating costs (20.4% in 2010), and at times in our operating history we have experienced pressure to increase wages and benefits for our employees. A significant increase in our labor costs above the assumed costs could result in a material reduction in our earnings.
 
We may experience difficulty finding, training and retaining employees.
 
Our business is labor intensive. We employ a large number of pilots, flight attendants, maintenance technicians and other operating and administrative personnel. The airline industry has, from time to time, experienced a shortage of qualified personnel, specifically pilots and maintenance technicians. In addition, as is common with most of our competitors, we may, from time to time, face considerable turnover of our employees. Should the turnover of employees, particularly pilots and maintenance technicians, sharply increase, our training costs will be significantly higher. We cannot assure you that we will be able to recruit, train and retain the qualified employees that we need to continue our current operations or replace departing employees. A failure to hire and retain qualified employees at a reasonable cost could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 
Failure to comply with applicable environmental regulations could adversely affect our business and reputation.
 
Our operations are covered by environmental regulations at local, national and international levels. These regulations cover, among other things, emissions to the atmosphere, disposal of solid waste and aqueous effluents, aircraft noise and other activities incident to our business. Future operations and financial results may vary as a result of such regulations. Compliance with these regulations and new or existing regulations that may be applicable to us in the future could increase our cost base and adversely affect our operations and financial results. In addition, failure to comply with these regulations could adversely affect us in a variety of ways, including adverse effects on our reputation.
 
Risks Related to Chile and Other Emerging Market Countries
 
Developments in Latin American countries and other emerging market countries may adversely affect the Chilean economy, negatively impact our business and results of operations and cause the market price of our common shares and ADSs to decrease.
 
We conduct a significant portion of our operations in emerging market countries, particularly in Latin America. As a result, economic and political developments in these countries, including future economic crises and political instability, could impact the Chilean economy or the market value of our securities and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.  Beginning late 2008, and continuing during 2009, many of the countries we serve, including Chile, experienced economic slowdowns or recessions, which resulted in a substantial weakening of demand.  Although economic conditions in other emerging market countries may differ significantly from economic conditions in Chile, we cannot assure that events in other countries, particularly other emerging market countries, will not adversely affect the market value of, or market for, our common shares or ADSs.
 
 
22

 

Fluctuations in the value of the Chilean peso and other currencies in the countries in which we operate may adversely affect our revenues and profitability.
 
Changes in the exchange rate between the Chilean peso and the U.S. dollar or other currencies in the countries in which we operate could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. We operate in numerous countries and face the risk of variation in foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar or between the currencies of these various countries. Approximately 99% of our indebtedness at December 31, 2010 is denominated in U.S. dollars, 15% of our revenues and 40% of our operating expenses in 2010 were denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, mainly the Chilean peso. If the value of the peso, or of other currencies in which revenues are denominated, declines against the U.S. dollar, we will need more pesos or other local currency to repay the same amount of U.S. dollars. The Chilean peso has experienced volatility in recent years, including an average nominal depreciation of 1.3% against the U.S. dollar in 2008, an average nominal depreciation of 4.7% against the U.S. dollar in 2009 and an average nominal appreciation of 4.6% against the U.S. dollar in 2010. The exchange rate of the Chilean peso and other currencies against the U.S. dollar may fluctuate significantly in the future. Changes in Chilean and other governmental economic policies affecting foreign exchange rates could also adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and the return to our shareholders on their common shares or ADSs.
 
Exchange controls in Venezuela delay our ability to repatriate cash generated from operations in Venezuela. They also increase our exposure to exchange rate losses due to potential devaluations of the Venezuelan bolivar vis à vis the U.S. dollar during the period of time between the time we are paid in Venezuelan bolivares and the time we are able to repatriate such revenues in U.S. dollars.  See “Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Year ended December 31, 2010 compared to year ended December 31, 2009—Cost of Sales” and “—Year ended December 31, 2009 compared to year ended December 31, 2008—Cost of Sales,” under Item 5.
 
We are not required to disclose as much information to investors as a U.S. issuer is required to disclose and, as a result, you may receive less information about us than you would receive from a comparable U.S. company.
 
The corporate disclosure requirements that apply to us may not be equivalent to the disclosure requirements that apply to a U.S. company and, as a result, you may receive less information about us than you would receive from a comparable U.S. company. We are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. The disclosure requirements applicable to foreign issuers under the Exchange Act are more limited than the disclosure requirements applicable to U.S. issuers. Publicly available information about issuers of securities listed on Chilean stock exchanges also provides less detail in certain respects than the information regularly published by listed companies in the United States or in certain other countries. Furthermore, there is a lower level of regulation of the Chilean securities markets and of the activities of investors in such markets as compared with the level of regulation of the securities markets in the United States and in certain other developed countries.
 
Risks Related to our Common Shares and ADSs
 
Our controlling shareholders may have interests that differ from those of our other shareholders.
 
As of April 29, 2011 our controlling shareholders, beneficially owned 34.01% of our voting common shares. Controlling shareholders are in a position to elect four of the nine members of our board of directors and are in a position to direct our management. In addition, under the terms of the deposit agreement governing the ADSs, if holders of ADSs do not provide The Bank of New York Mellon, in its capacity as depositary for the ADSs, with timely instructions on the voting of the common shares underlying their ADRs, the depositary will be deemed to have been instructed to give a person designated by the board of directors the right to vote those common shares.
 
 
23

 

Trading of our ADSs and common shares in the securities markets is limited and could experience further illiquidity and price volatility.
 
Chilean securities markets are substantially smaller, less liquid and more volatile than major securities markets in the United States. In addition, Chilean securities markets may be materially affected by developments in other emerging markets, particularly other countries in Latin America. Accordingly, although you are entitled to withdraw the common shares underlying the ADSs from the depositary at any time, your ability to sell the common shares underlying ADSs in the amount and at the price and time that you wish to do so may be substantially limited. This limited trading market may also increase the price volatility of the ADSs or the common shares underlying the ADSs.
 
Holders of ADSs may be adversely affected by currency devaluations and foreign exchange fluctuations.
 
If the peso exchange rate falls relative to the U.S. dollar, the value of the ADSs and any distributions made thereon from the depositary could be adversely affected. Cash distributions made in respect of the ADSs are received by the depositary (represented by the custodian bank in Chile) in pesos, converted by the custodian bank into U.S. dollars at the then prevailing exchange rate and distributed by the depositary to the holders of the ADRs evidencing those ADSs. In addition, the depositary will incur foreign currency conversion costs (to be borne by the holders of the ADRs) in connection with the foreign currency conversion and subsequent distribution of dividends or other payments with respect to the ADSs.
 
Future changes in Chilean foreign investment controls and withholding taxes could negatively affect non-Chilean residents that invest in our shares.
 
Equity investments in Chile by non-Chilean residents have been subject in the past to various exchange control regulations that govern investment repatriation and earnings thereon. Although not currently in effect, regulations of the Central Bank of Chile have in the past required, and could again require, foreign investors acquiring securities in the secondary market in Chile to maintain a cash reserve or to pay a fee upon conversion of foreign currency to purchase such securities. Further, future changes in withholding taxes could negatively affect non-Chilean residents that invest in our shares.
 
When we established our ADS facility as part of our initial public offering in 1997, there were foreign exchange controls in Chile. At that time, in order to allow the depositary and investors to be able to enter into foreign exchange transactions to repatriate from Chile amounts they received in connection with the deposited shares of common stock (including dividends and proceeds from the sale in Chile of the underlying shares of common stock and any rights with respect thereto), we entered into a foreign investment contract (the “Foreign Investment Contract”) with the Central Bank and the depositary. The Foreign Investment Contract guaranteed ADS investors and the depositary access to the Formal Exchange Market to convert amounts from Chilean pesos into U.S. dollars and to repatriate such amounts.
 
In 2001, a new Compendium of Foreign Exchange Regulations (the “New Compendium”) removed exchange controls and many other barriers to investment. However, even though there are no longer foreign exchange controls in Chile, all foreign investment contracts (including the Foreign Investment Contract), continue to remain in full force.
 
We cannot assure that additional Chilean restrictions applicable to the holders of ADRs, the disposition of the common shares underlying ADSs or the repatriation of the proceeds from an acquisition, a disposition or a dividend payment, will not be imposed or required in the future, nor could we make an assessment as to the duration or impact, were any such restrictions to be imposed or required. For further information, see “Additional Information— Foreign Investment and Exchange Controls in Chile,” under Item 10.
 
Our ADS holders may not be able to exercise preemptive rights in certain circumstances.
 
The Chilean Corporation Law, provides that preemptive rights shall be granted to all shareholders whenever a company issues new shares for cash, giving such holders the right to purchase a sufficient number of shares to maintain their existing ownership percentage. We will not be able to offer shares to holders of ADSs and shareholders located in the United States pursuant to the preemptive rights granted to shareholders in connection with any future issuance of shares unless a registration statement under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, is effective with respect to such rights and shares, or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available. At the time of any rights offering, we will evaluate the potential costs and liabilities associated with any such registration statement in light of any indirect benefit to us of enabling U.S. holders of ADRs evidencing ADSs and shareholders located in the United States to exercise preemptive rights, as well as any other factors that may be considered appropriate at that time, and we will then make a decision as to whether we will file a registration statement. We cannot assure that we will decide to file a registration statement or that such rights will be available to ADS holders and shareholders located in the United States.

ITEM 4.
INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY
 
BUSINESS
 
Overview
 
We are one of the leading passenger airlines in Latin America and the main air cargo operator in the region. We currently provide domestic and international passenger services in Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Argentina and Colombia. We carry out our cargo operations through the use of belly space on our passenger flights and dedicated cargo operations using freighter aircraft through our cargo airlines in Chile, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico. In 2007, we initiated a strategy for stimulating demand for air travel in our domestic markets by offering lower-fare options to travelers, lowering our costs and increasing the aircraft utilization rates and efficiency of operations. For more information about our short-haul operations see “—Business of the Company— Passenger Operations—Business Model for Domestic Operations” below.
 
As of February 28, 2011, we serviced 15 destinations in Chile, 14 destinations in Peru, 4 destinations in Ecuador, 14 destinations in Argentina, 24 destinations in Colombia, 14 destinations in other Latin American countries and the Caribbean, 5 destinations in the United States, 1 destination in Canada, 3 destinations in Europe and 4 destinations in the South Pacific. In addition, as of February 28, 2011, through our various code-share agreements, we offer service to 25 additional destinations in North America, 16 additional destinations in Europe, 25 additional destinations in Latin America and the Caribbean (including Mexico) and 2 destinations in Asia. We provide cargo service to all our passenger destinations and to approximately 20 additional destinations served only by freighter aircraft. We also offer other services, such as ground handling, courier, logistics, and maintenance.
 
Lan Airlines S.A. is a publicly-held stock corporation (sociedad anónima abierta) incorporated under the laws of Chile. Our principal executive offices are located at Presidente Riesco 5711, 20th floor, Las Condes, Santiago, Chile and our general telephone number at this location is (56-2) 565-2525.
 
History of the Company
 
The Chilean government founded Lan Airlines (formerly Lan Chile S.A.) in 1929. Lan Airlines was a government-owned company from 1929 until its incorporation in 1983. Lan Airlines began international service to Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1946, to the United States in 1958 and to Europe in 1970. In 1989, the Chilean government sold 51% of Lan Airlines’ capital stock to Chilean investors and to Scandinavian Airlines System. In 1994, our controlling shareholders together with other major shareholders acquired 98.7% of Lan Airlines’ stock, including the remaining stock held by the Chilean government, in a series of transactions. As of February 28, 2011, the controlling shareholders held 34.01% of our capital stock. For more information about our controlling shareholders, see “Controlling Shareholders” and “Related Party Transactions” under Item 7.
 
In 1997 LAN was listed on the New York Stock Exchange, becoming the first Latin American airline to trade its ADRs on this financial market.
 
Since this acquisition of our capital stock in 1994 and the appointment of our current management, we have grown our revenue base and maintained our profitability every year despite significant challenges. Additionally, we have created a comprehensive network across the region by forming, together with local partners, or acquiring, passenger affiliates in Peru, Ecuador, Argentina and Colombia, and cargo affiliates in Brazil, Mexico and Colombia. In early 2004, we changed our corporate image and started using the “LAN” brand in order to better reflect the common values and attributes present in all the companies forming our network. We have complemented our own network with a set of bilateral alliances with carriers such as American Airlines, Iberia and Qantas, and have been a member of the oneworld® alliance since 2000.

Organizational Structure
 
LAN is a company primarily involved in the transportation of passengers and cargo. Our operations are carried out principally by Lan Airlines and also by a number of different subsidiaries. As of February 28, 2011, in the passenger business we operated through six main airlines: Lan Airlines, Transporte Aéreo S.A. (which does business under the name “Lan Express”), Lan Perú S.A. (“Lan Peru”), Aerolane Líneas Aéreas Nacionales del Ecuador S.A. (“Lan Ecuador”), Lan Argentina S.A. (“Lan Argentina,” previously Aero 2000 S.A.) and the recently acquired Aerovías de Integración Regional, Aires S.A. (“Aires”).
 
In the passenger business we market our sales primarily under the “LAN” brand, except for Aires, which is working towards being rebranded to “LAN”.  As of February 28, 2011 we held a 99.9% stake in Lan Express through direct and indirect interests, a 70.0% stake in Lan Peru through direct and indirect interests, a 71.9% indirect stake in Lan Ecuador, a 99.0% indirect stake in Lan Argentina and a 94.99% indirect stake in Aires (a Colombian entity which was acquired on November 26, 2010).
 
Our cargo operations are carried out by a number of companies, including Lan Airlines and Lan Cargo.  As of February 28, 2011, Lan Airlines and Lan Cargo were complemented by the operations of certain related companies, such as Aero Transportes Mas de Carga S.A. de C.V. (“MasAir”), in Mexico, Aerolinhas Brasileiras S.A. (“ABSA”), in Brazil and Linea Aérea Carguera de Colombia S.A. (“Lanco”), in Colombia. As of February 28, 2011, we held a 69.2% stake in MasAir through direct and indirect participations, a 73.3% stake in ABSA through direct and indirect participations, and a 90.0% stake in LANCO through direct and indirect participations.  In the cargo business, we market ourselves primarily under the Lan Cargo brand.
 
In addition to our air transportation activities, we provide a series of ancillary services. We offer handling services, courier services and logistics, small package and express door-to-door services through Lan Airlines and various subsidiaries.
 
Proposed Combination with TAM
 
On August 13, 2010, we jointly announced with TAM that we had entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding relating to the proposed all-stock transaction that would combine the holdings of LAN and TAM under a single parent entity.
 
On January 18, 2011, we and Costa Verde Aeronáutica and Mineras del Cantábrico (we refer to these entities together as the “LAN controlling shareholders”) entered into an implementation agreement and an exchange offer agreement (we refer to these agreements together as the “transaction agreements”) with TAM S.A., TAM Empreendimentos e Participações S.A. (we refer to this entity as the “TAM controlling shareholder”) and Maria Cláudia Oliveira Amaro, Maurício Rolim Amaro, Noemy Almeida Oliveira Amaro and João Francisco Amaro (we refer to these individuals together as the “Amaro family”), which set forth the terms and conditions of a proposed business combination of LAN and TAM.

On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the transaction agreements (including the minimum conditions discussed in this section below), all or substantially all of the outstanding voting common shares of TAM will be acquired by a new Chilean corporation (which we refer to as “Holdco 1”) and all or substantially all of the outstanding non-voting preferred shares of TAM will be acquired by LAN if the series of transactions and corporate restructurings described below are successfully completed:

 
·
The Amaro family will create a new Chilean corporation (which we refer to as “TEP Chile”) that will be wholly owned by them;

 
·
TEP Chile will acquire and hold at least 80% of the voting stock of Holdco 1, which will have no economic rights in Holdco 1 (other than nominal dividend rights);

 
·
LAN will acquire no more than 20% of the voting stock of Holdco 1;

 
·
LAN will acquire and hold 100% of the non-voting stock of Holdco 1, which will have all of the economic rights in Holdco 1 (other than the nominal dividend rights of the voting stock of Holdco 1);

 
·
Holdco 1 will acquire and hold all or substantially all of the voting common shares of TAM;
 
 
26

 

 
·
LAN will acquire and hold all or substantially all of the non-voting preferred shares of TAM; and

 
·
LAN, TAM, TEP Chile, Holdco 1 and the LAN controlling shareholders will enter into the shareholder agreements described below under “—Shareholders Agreements,” relating to the holding of shares in, and the governance of, and relationships between, LAN, Holdco 1, TAM and their respective subsidiaries.

Pursuant to and subject to the terms of the transaction agreements, the parties will form a new Chilean corporation (which we refer to as “Holdco 2”) that will commence a delisting exchange offer to acquire all of the voting common shares of TAM and all of the non-voting preferred shares of TAM (in each case other than any such shares owned indirectly by the Amaro family) in exchange for the same number of shares of common stock of Holdco 2 (which we refer to as the “exchange offer”).

At or prior to the completion of the exchange offer:

 
·
the Amaro family will contribute to TEP Chile all of the voting common shares of TAM and non-voting preferred shares of TAM beneficially owned by them;

 
·
TEP Chile will pay nominal consideration for all of the voting shares of Holdco 1 and will contribute all of the voting common shares of TAM it receives from the Amaro family to Holdco 1 in exchange for all of the non-voting shares of Holdco 1;

 
·
TEP Chile will contribute (i) all of the non-voting shares of Holdco 1, (ii) 6.2% of the voting shares of Holdco 1 and (iii) all of the non-voting preferred shares of TAM it receives from the Amaro family to a new Chilean corporation (which we refer to as “Sister Holdco”) in exchange for all of the shares of common stock of Sister Holdco (other than one share held by a nominee of TEP Chile);

 
·
each of Holdco 2 and Sister Holdco will merge with and into LAN (we refer to these mergers together as the “mergers,” and individually as the “Holdco 2 Merger” and the “Sister Holdco Merger,” respectively), with LAN being the surviving company of each such merger; and

 
·
in the mergers, each share of common stock of Holdco 2 and each share of common stock of Sister Holdco will be converted into the right to receive 0.9 of a LAN common share.

As a result of the exchange offer and Holdco 2 merger, each holder of a voting common share of TAM and each holder of a non-voting preferred share of TAM that sells such shares in the exchange offer will ultimately receive 0.9 of a LAN common share for each share they sell.  Similarly, as a result of the foregoing transactions and the Sister Holdco merger, the Amaro family will ultimately receive 0.9 of a LAN common share for each voting common share of TAM and each non-voting preferred share of TAM that they own.
 
The commencement of the exchange offer is subject to certain conditions set forth in the transaction agreements as described under “Key Information—The Transaction Agreements—Conditions to Commencement of the Exchange Offer,” under Item 4, including receipt of all required regulatory approvals, approval of the proposed combination by the holders of LAN common shares and the condition that the holders of no more than 2.5% of the outstanding LAN common shares exercise their appraisal rights under Chilean law.  The completion of the exchange offer is also subject to certain conditions set forth in the transaction agreements as described under “Key Information—The Transaction Agreements—Conditions to Completion of the Exchange Offer,” under Item 4, including minimum tender conditions and conditions to the Amaro family’s obligation to contribute their TAM shares as described above.  As a result, no assurance can be given that the proposed combination will be completed.

If the proposed combination is completed, then:

 
·
LAN’s common shares will be listed in Brazil on the Bovespa in the form of BDRs;
 
 
27

 

 
·
LAN’s common shares will continue to be listed in Chile on the SSE and in the United States on the NYSE in the form of ADRs;

 
·
subject to satisfaction of the minimum tender conditions described above, all TAM shares (whether voting common shares or non-voting preferred shares) will be delisted from the from the Bovespa in Brazil and the NYSE in the United States; and

 
·
LAN will change its name to “LATAM Airlines Group S.A.”

On January 28, 2011, in response to a petition filed by a Chilean consumer association, Conadecus, the TDLC, determined to submit the proposed combination between LAN and TAM to a voluntary review procedure that is available under the Chilean antitrust laws upon the request of the Fiscalía Nacional Económica or someone with a legitimate interest. This voluntary review procedure could delay the implementation of the proposed combination because LAN and TAM cannot complete the proposed combination until the TDLC renders its final decision at the end of this process. On April 5, 2011, LAN, together with TAM, submitted a presentation in support the proposed combination.

On March 1, 2011, the Brazilian Agencia Nacional de Aviçao Civil (the Brazilian National Civil Aviation Agency or “ANAC”) authorized the transfers of the shares of TAM and its subsidiairies that are necessary to implement the proposed combination.  However, the proposed combination remains subject to other regulatory and shareholder approvals.
 
Competitive Strengths
 
Our strategy is to maximize shareholder value by increasing revenues and profitability through leveraging the operational efficiencies between our cargo and passenger divisions, thoroughly planning for our expansion efforts and carefully controlling costs. We plan to accomplish these goals by both focusing on our existing competitive strengths and implementing new strategies to fuel our future growth. We believe our most important competitive strengths are:
 
Leading Presence in Key South American Markets
 
We are one of the main international and domestic passenger airlines in Latin America, as well as the largest cargo operator in Chile and most of the South American markets that we serve. We hold the largest market share of passenger traffic to and from Chile, Peru and Ecuador, as well as the largest market share of domestic passenger traffic in both Chile and Peru. More recently, we have also achieved a solid and growing position in the Argentine domestic market through Lan Argentina and in the Argentine international market through Lan Argentina and our other passenger airlines. We are also strengthening our presence in the Ecuadorian market, where we began domestic passenger operations on April 6, 2009. We entered the Colombian domestic and international market through the acquisition of Aires on November 26, 2010. We are also the leading air cargo operator within, to and from South America, and we are consolidating our leadership through new cargo operations in Colombia and in the Brazilian domestic market, as well as through an increased presence in routes between South America and Europe. Our international and domestic passenger and cargo operations have increased substantially over the past four years in terms of capacity, traffic and revenue. Between 2005 and 2010, our passenger capacity grew 78.8% and our cargo capacity grew 28.2%.
 
Diversified Revenue Base from both Passenger and Cargo Operations
 
We believe that one of our distinct competitive advantages is our ability to profitably integrate our scheduled passenger and cargo operations. We take into account potential cargo services when planning passenger routes, and also serve certain dedicated cargo routes using our freight aircraft, when needed. By adding cargo revenues to our existing passenger service, we are able to increase the productivity of our assets and maximize revenue, which has historically covered fixed operating expenses per flight, lowered break-even load factors and enhanced per flight profitability. Additionally, this revenue diversification helps offset seasonal revenue fluctuations and reduces the volatility of our business over time. As of December 2010, passenger revenues accounted for 68.8% of total revenues and cargo revenues accounted for 28.3% of total revenues.
 
 
28

 
 
 
Attractive Cost Structure with High Utilization of our Assets and Productive Personnel
 
We believe that we have a highly competitive cost structure with a cost per ATK of 43.7 cents in 2010. Our cost advantage arises mainly from our productive and committed employees, high aircraft utilization, modern and fuel-efficient fleet and cost-conscious culture. Our wages and labor costs accounted for approximately 20.4% of total costs in 2010, which we believe is a lower percentage than that of many other U.S. and European carriers.
 
Furthermore, our itineraries and aircraft rotations are designed to maximize aircraft utilization. During 2010, our long-haul aircraft (Boeing 767-300 passenger and Airbus A340-300s) operated an average of approximately fourteen hours per day. We also implemented a new business model for short-haul operations in 2007; as a result, by the end of 2010 we increased the utilization of our narrow body aircraft to reach 9.5 hours per day.  In May 2008, we completed the phase out of the Boeing B737-200 from our fleet.  Our short haul fleet is now entirely composed of Airbus A320-Family Aircraft with the exception of the recently acquired Aires fleet.
 
In addition, during 2009 we continued with the implementation of LEAN, a system that seeks to improve our processes by eliminating activities that do not add value (thus increasing the value of each activity and suppressing those that are superfluous), which reduces costs, improves efficiency and increases customer satisfaction. The adoption of this system constituted a redesigning of processes that permits solving problems that may occur during the execution of any process, such as aircraft maintenance. The foregoing renders the daily tasks and processes carried out within the Company more efficient. Due to its implementation, during 2010 we achieved a 30% reduction in the time that an aircraft remains in the hangar and we were also able to reduce the period needed to install winglets from 58 to 18 days.  LEAN also allowed us in 2011 to support the Company’s high growth, by streamlining the pilot training process, which resulted in more pilots trained during that year.  Finally, it allowed the Company to reduce CO2 emissions, by redesigning processes in various areas that result in fuel consumption. In addition, by establishing clear roles, challenges and achievements, the implementation of LEAN has had an important benefit in terms of employee motivation. See Item 4. “Information on the Company—Business of the Company—Maintenance.”
 
Strong Brand Teamed with Key Global Strategic Alliances
 
In March 2004 we launched the “LAN” brand, under which we operate all of our international passenger airlines (except for Aires, which is working towards being rebranded to “LAN”).  Brand uniformity enables our customers to better identify us with the high standards of service and safety that are common to all of our airlines. This corporate image has also improved the cost effectiveness and efficiency of our marketing efforts as we continue to expand in our existing and new markets. Additionally, LAN and our entire passenger affiliates (with the exception of Aires) are a member of the oneworld® alliance. We have also entered into bilateral agreements with strategic partners such as American Airlines, Iberia and Qantas, among others, whose leading presence in their respective markets creates a truly global reach for our passengers. Our passenger alliances and commercial agreements provide our customers with approximately 750 travel destinations, a combined reservations system, itinerary flexibility and various other benefits, which substantially enhance our competitive position within the Latin American market.
 
Optimized Fleet Strategy
 
We make optimal use of our fleet structure through a combination of minimal aircraft types, modern aircraft and staggered lease maturities. We carefully select our aircraft based on their ability to effectively and efficiently serve our short- and long-haul flight needs, while still striving to minimize the number of aircraft types we operate. For short-haul flights we operate the Airbus A320-Family Aircraft and the recently acquired Aires fleet in the Colombian market.  As of May 18, 2008, we stopped using Boeing 737-200 aircraft in our Chilean domestic operations. For long-haul passenger flights we operate the Boeing 767-300 passenger aircraft and for long-haul cargo flights we operate the Boeing 767-300 Freighters. For ultra long-haul service, such as between Santiago and Madrid and between Santiago and Auckland, we use the Airbus A340-300 aircraft. Having a fleet with minimal aircraft types reduces inventory costs, as fewer spare parts are required, and reduces the need to train our pilots to operate different types of aircraft.  LAN’s strategic fleet renewal plan involves the sale of five Airbus A318 aircraft in 2011, five in 2012 and five in 2013.

 
29

 

The average age of our fleet as of February 28, 2011 was 6.1 years (excluding the recently acquired Aires fleet), making our fleet one of the most modern in Latin America. The phasing out of our Boeing 737-200s, our oldest aircraft, which was completed in May 2008, contributed to reducing the average age of our fleet. Additionally, we expect that our purchase of additional aircraft, to be delivered between 2011 and 2018 will further reduce the average age of our fleet. Having a younger fleet makes us more cost competitive because it reduces fuel consumption and maintenance costs, and enables us to enjoy a high degree of performance reliability. In addition, a modern and fuel efficient fleet reflects our strong commitment to the environment as new aircraft incorporate the industry’s latest technology, allowing for a substantial reduction in emissions, while also decreasing noise levels.
 
Additionally, our leased fleet is structured with staggered lease maturities over time to create the strategic flexibility to expand or reduce capacity according to market conditions. We believe that our aircraft and the flexibility of our fleet allow us to maximize aircraft utilization by adapting rapidly to changes in passenger and cargo demand in the markets that we serve.
 
Strong Financial Position with Track Record of Growth and Profitability
 
We have historically managed our business to maintain financial flexibility and a strong balance sheet in order to accommodate our growth objectives while being able to respond to changing market conditions. We are one of the few investment-grade rated airlines in the world and we maintained this status during 2010. We have built our strong financial position by preserving our financial liquidity and continuing to structure long-term financing for newly acquired aircraft. Our financial flexibility has allowed us to secure large aircraft orders, including an important part of our current re-fleeting program at attractive financing rates.  We also monitor and seek opportunities to reduce financial risks associated with currency, interest rate and jet fuel price fluctuations. Over the last five years, while much of the airline industry has faced significant competitive and liquidity crises, we have remained consistently profitable.
 
Business Strategy
 
The principal areas in which we plan to focus our efforts going forward are as follows:
 
Continue to Grow Both our Passenger and Cargo Networks
 
We currently intend to continue to expand our capacity over the next several years to accommodate robust long-term growth in both passenger and cargo demand in the markets we target. We plan on expanding our operations not only in the markets we currently serve but also into new South American markets where we believe demand exists for our combination of passenger and cargo services. To meet this growth,
 
 
·
as of February 28, 2011, we had an order book of 82 latest generation Airbus A320-Family Aircraft to be delivered between 2011 and 2016 and nine Boeing 767-300 wide body passenger aircraft to be delivered between 2011 and 2012;
 
 
·
as of February 28, 2011, we had orders for two Boeing 777-200 Freighter aircraft to be delivered in 2012; and
 
 
·
we also have outstanding orders for 32 Boeing 787 Dreamliner passenger aircraft, currently expected to start to be delivered in 2012.
 
We will continue to leverage the benefits of combining our passenger and cargo operations. Our passenger and cargo operations are equally important aspects of our business, and we dedicate the necessary resources, employees, facilities, management and fleet to enable both operations to provide high-quality service and to compete effectively in their respective markets.
 
Enhance the Profitability of our Short-Haul Operations
 
We plan to continue implementing the business model launched in 2007 to increase the efficiency of our domestic and short-haul operations, specifically in the domestic markets in Chile and Peru. This model is also being applied in the domestic markets in Ecuador and Argentina, as well as in our recently acquired passenger operations in Colombia. In Argentina, the implementation of the model is subject to certain regulatory restrictions as a result of the fare bands in place in the Argentinean domestic market. In addition, we are evaluating the application of these initiatives on certain regional routes within Latin America. A key objective of this program has been to increase the utilization of our fleet through modified itineraries that include more point-to-point and overnight flights and faster turnaround times. Our Boeing 737-200 fleet was completely phased out in May 2008 in favor of the new Airbus A320-Family Aircraft, which we currently operate on all domestic and regional routes except those served by Aires.  These initiatives have increased efficiency and improved the margins of our short-haul operations. In addition, our modern fleet allows for lower unscheduled maintenance costs, lower fuel consumption, and operational and cost efficiencies achieved through operating fewer fleet types. Other key objectives of this business model include a reduction in sales and distribution costs through increased Internet penetration, reduced agency commissions, and increased self check-in service through web check-in and airport kiosks. We expect that these initiatives, together with simplifications in back-office and support functions, will continue to help us expand operations while controlling fixed costs, spurring a reduction in overhead costs per ASK. We have begun to pass on a portion of these operating efficiencies to consumers through fare reductions, which has stimulated additional demand and enhanced our overall profitability.

Maintain Excellent Customer Satisfaction
 
In both our passenger and cargo businesses, we focus on delivering high quality services that are valued by our customers. In our passenger businesses we strive to achieve high on-time performance, world-class on-board service on long-haul flights, attractive and convenient pricing and quick check-in for short-haul flights, and the comfort afforded by a modern fleet. During the first half of 2009 we completed the reconfiguration of the cabins of all our long-haul aircraft, including both the Boeing 767 and the Airbus A340 passenger aircraft, in order to incorporate our new Premium Business Class including full-flat seats, as well as improvements in economy class which include a state-of-the-art on-board entertainment system. Our frequent flyer program, LANPASS, provides travel benefits and rewards to almost 4.3 million loyal customers in Chile, Argentina, Peru and Ecuador as well as in other countries where we operate. In the cargo business, we focus on providing reliable service, taking advantage of our ability to handle different types of cargo as well as significant cargo volumes, and leveraging our facilities in key gateways, such as Miami, to ensure optimal handling of our customers’ needs. We continually assess opportunities to incorporate service improvements in order to respond effectively to our customers’ needs.
 
Continued Emphasis on Safety
 
Our top priority is safety, and we have structured our operations and maintenance to focus on safe flying. Our main maintenance facilities are certified by the Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”), DGAC and other civil aviation authorities. Our flight and maintenance safety procedures are certified under ISO 9001-2000 standards. We have programs in place to train our crews and mechanics to world-class standards both at facilities abroad or at our training centers, which we have developed in association with high-quality partners.
 
Focus on Efficiency and Sustainability
 
We are increasingly concerned with improving efficiency through a series of fleet initiatives that seek to reduce fuel consumption. The most significant is our ongoing fleet renewal and growth plan, through which we expect to incorporate 125 new aircraft between 2011and 2018. As an example, we estimate that the Boeing 787 Dreamliner operates with costs per ASK that are approximately 12% lower than other long haul passenger aircraft, while the new Boeing 777 freighter is approximately 17% more efficient in terms of costs per ASK than the Boeing 767 freighter. In addition, during the second half of 2010 we finalized the installation of winglets on all of our Boeing 767 aircraft, achieving fuel efficiencies of approximately 5% per aircraft. In order to mitigate the environmental impact of our operations we seek to operate in a sustainable manner by reducing our fuel consumption and related emissions. We also continue to focus on adjusting the configuration of our aircraft to market demand by, for example, adjusting the configuration of four Boeing 767s that operate on long-haul routes from Ecuador by reducing the number of Premium Business seats and increasing the number of Economy class seats.   Other long-term projects that aim at improving our cost structure include implementing the LEAN operating processes in our maintenance operations, as well as investing in new inventory and reservations systems provided by Sabre.

International Passenger Operations
 
As of February 28, 2011, we operated scheduled international services from Chile, Peru, Ecuador and Argentina through Lan Airlines; Lan Express in Chile; Lan Peru in Peru; Lan Ecuador in Ecuador; Lan Argentina in Argentina and Aires in Colombia. International passenger traffic has grown significantly in the past couple of years due to demand growth, market share gains, increased connecting traffic to and from other Latin American countries, the launch of new routes and additional frequencies on existing routes, and expansion into new markets.
 
Our international network combines our Chilean, Peruvian, Ecuadorian, Argentinean and Colombian affiliates. We have operated international services out of Chile since 1946, and we greatly expanded our flights out of Peru with the creation of Lan Peru in 1999 and out of Ecuador through Lan Ecuador in 2003. In August 2006, we expanded our international operations through Lan Argentina, which until then had only been offering domestic flights. The international operations of Aires, however, are being reduced since its acquisition in 2010. This strategy to generally expand our international network is aimed at enhancing our value proposition by offering customers more destinations and routing alternatives, maximizing aircraft utilization, increasing load factors, leveraging complementary seasonal patterns, and optimizing our commercial efforts. We provide long-haul services out of our four main hubs in Santiago, Lima, Guayaquil and Buenos Aires.  We also provide regional services from Chile, Peru, Ecuador and Argentina. Since 2004, we have grown our intra-Latin American operations out of Lima to position it as our main regional hub.

In line with our long-standing commitment to provide customers with superior service and the best products on the market, in May 2009 LAN completed the retrofit of all its long-haul fleet (including its Boeing 767 and Airbus A340 passenger aircraft) with the new Premium Business class and improved Economy class. Combining the best features of the traditional First and Business classes, the new Premium Business includes 180 degrees recline full-flat seats which allow passengers to sleep with the maximum comfort and privacy. Premium Business also includes top-level personalized in-flight service. Changes in Economy class include new seats with a greater recline angle, a cushion that slides forward for increased comfort and convenience, and larger individual video monitors for each seat.
 
LAN’s sustained development of its coverage has been a crucial factor in its growth and 2010 was no exception. New routes were added along with flight increases in some key existing routes in order to offer more and better alternatives to both business and tourist travelers. In 2010, the Company continued to consolidate its hub in Lima, which serves as the center of its Latin American network and also complements its intercontinental network, by opening new routes and increasing flights on existing routes.

As part of its mission, LAN seeks to promote tourism to South America. Due to its large network of services, visitors from around the world can experience world renowned destinations such as Cusco, Easter Island, the Galapagos Islands, or Patagonia in Chile and Argentina, including the cities of Punta Arenas, Ushuaia, El Calafate and Bariloche.
 
According to JAC data, Chilean international air passenger traffic increased 9.4% from 2009 to 2010 approximately 5.1 million passengers. We had a 52.8% market share in 2010, based on RPKs, compared to 52.4% in 2009. Our international operations out of Chile can be divided into four main segments, to: North America, Europe, the rest of Latin America, and the Pacific. As of February 28, 2011, the other principal carriers that transported passengers between Chile and North America with direct flights included American Airlines, Delta Airlines, Air Canada and Aeromexico. TACA and COPA also participated in the Chile-North American markets with stopovers in their respective Central American hubs. Our main competitors on routes between Chile and Europe were Air France-KLM and Iberia. On regional routes our main competitors were Aerolineas Argentinas, Air Canada, Avianca, GOL, TACA and TAM. We were the only airline operating between Chile and the South Pacific during this time.
 
Based on the information provided by the Peruvian DGAC, we flew approximately 5.0 million passengers on international flights to and from Peru in 2010. That year, we had 45.4% of the international market share in Peru, which was an increase from our 41.7% market share in 2009. Our Peruvian international operations can be divided into three main segments, based on the destination: North America, Europe and the rest of Latin America. As of February 28, 2011, our main competitors on direct routes to North America included American Airlines, Continental Airlines, Delta Airlines, Spirit Airlines, Air Canada and Aeromexico. TACA and COPA also participated in the Peru-North American markets with stopovers in their respective Central American hubs. On routes to Europe, our main competitors were Iberia, Air Europa and Air France-KLM. The other principal carriers operating between Peru and the rest of Latin America as of that date included Aerolineas Argentinas, TACA, TAM, Avianca and GOL.
 
The Ecuadorian international market increased 4.1% to approximately 2.8 million passengers between 2009 and 2010. According to travel agency statistics (“BSP”) and our estimates, we had a 28.7% market share of the Ecuadorian international market in 2010 compared to 24.5% in 2009. Our Ecuadorian international operations can be divided into three main segments, to: North America, Europe and the rest of Latin America. As of February 28, 2011, on direct routes to North America, our main competitors were American Airlines, Continental Airlines, Delta Airlines and Aerogal. TACA and COPA also participate in the Ecuador-North American markets with stopovers in their respective Central American hubs. On routes to Europe, our main competitors were Air Comet, Iberia, and Air France-KLM. On regional routes, our main competitors were TACA, COPA and Avianca.
 
Based on our internal estimates, the Argentinean international market increased 18.0% to approximately 9.1 million passengers between 2009 and 2010. Our estimated market share of the Argentinean international market was 15.9% in 2010 compared to 16.7% in 2009. Our Argentinean international operations can be divided into two main segments, based on destination to: North America and the rest of Latin America. As of February 28, 2011, on the Buenos Aires-Miami route, our main competitors were American Airlines and Aerolíneas Argentinas. TAM, TACA and COPA also participated in the Argentina-North American markets with stopovers in their respective hubs. On the Buenos Aires-Dominican Republic route, our main competitors were COPA and American Airlines. On the Buenos Aires-Sao Paulo route, our main competitors were TAM, GOL and Aerolíneas Argentinas.

Business Model for Domestic Operations
 
In 2007 we initiated an important project to redesign our domestic business operations with the goal of increasing efficiency and improving the margins of LAN’s short-haul operations, specifically with respect to our domestic operations in Chile and Peru.  The new business model was first tested in the last quarter of 2006. A key element of this project has been to significantly increase the utilization of our narrow body fleet, which we have been successfully achieving through modified itineraries including more point-to-point and overnight flights. We removed the Boeing 737-200 aircraft from our fleet in favor of the new more efficient Airbus A320-Family Aircraft. The Airbus A320-Family Aircraft fleet utilization reached approximately 10.9 block hours per day in 2010. The transition to a newer fleet allows for lower unscheduled maintenance costs as well as cost efficiencies achieved through operating fewer fleet types and operational efficiencies, including lower fuel consumption.

Other key elements of our new business model are the reduction in sales and distribution costs through higher Internet penetration and reduced agency commissions, a faster turnaround time, and increased self-check-in service through web check-in and kiosks at airports. These initiatives, together with simplifications in back-office and support functions, will continue to allow us to expand operations while controlling fixed costs, spurring a reduction in overhead costs. We have begun to pass on these operating efficiencies to consumers through significant fare reductions, which we expect will have a strong effect of stimulating new demand.
 
In 2007, we implemented all aspects of this new business model in the Chilean and Peruvian domestic markets. We launched our new short-haul business model on all domestic routes in Chile in April 2007, after a marketing campaign that began in March 2007. We launched the new model in all domestic Peruvian routes in January 2007.
 
As a result of the implementation of this model, we increased the number of passengers transported in all domestic markets. Between 2006 and 2010, the number of passengers transported increased significantly:
 
 
·
83% (from 2.5 million to 4.6 million) in Chile,
 
·
123% (from 1.7 million to 3.8 million) in Peru,
 
·
200% (from 0.6 million to 1.9 million) in Argentina, and
 
·
with a minor effect in Ecuador as we just started domestic operations during 2009.
 
Over the past three years we have sustained constant growth in each of our domestic passenger operations, and between 2009 and 2010 we achieved an increase in domestic transported passengers at 13%.
 
On November 26, 2010, LAN acquired Colombian airline Aerovías de Integración Regional S.A. (“Aires”) for US$12 million in cash, in addition to assuming net liabilities of US$87 million.  The Colombian market is the second largest market in South America with over 13 million annual domestic passengers and represents a key market in LAN’s consolidation as a leading airline within the region.  Aires is currently the second largest operator in Colombia’s domestic market with approximately a 20% market share as of December 2010.  The Aires fleet consists of 9 B737-700s, 11 Q200 and 4 Q400, all of which are operating leases.
 
We plan to continue with the implementation of this business model during 2011 and we are evaluating its implementation in some regional routes, as we look for ways to increase operational efficiency, encourage direct sales and self check-in, and implement new sales strategies aimed at stimulating demand.
 
Operations within Chile
 
Through Lan Airlines and Lan Express we are the leading domestic passenger airline in Chile. We have operated domestic flights in Chile since the Company’s creation in 1929. As of February 28, 2011, we flew to 13 destinations within Chile (including Santiago, but not including Easter Island, which we consider an international destination even though it is a part of Chile, because we serve it with long-haul aircraft) as well as some seasonal destinations. Lan Airlines and Lan Express have integrated passenger operations, including operations under the same two-letter “designator reservation code,” and have coordinated fare structures, scheduling and other commercial matters in order to maximize cooperative benefits and revenues for the two carriers. Our strategy is based on providing frequent service to Chile’s main destinations, offering a reliable and high quality service, and leveraging our strong brand position in Chile and abroad. We evaluate our network of domestic routes on an ongoing basis in order to achieve optimal operational efficiency and profitability. Our strategic objective is to maintain our leadership position in our domestic routes.
 
LAN’s flexibility and broad passenger network also allowed us to manage the negative impact of the catastrophic earthquake that struck Chile in February 2010, causing significant damage to the terminal building at the Santiago International Airport and affecting all air travel in and out of the country. With no alternative airport in the Santiago Metropolitan Region, commercial passenger operations were suspended for three days, and were re-launched on March 2, 2010 with provisional facilities. LAN operated with reduced capacity out of Santiago until the terminal building was fully operational on March 28, 2010. LAN estimates the net impact of decreased passenger operations due to the earthquake were approximately US$30 million in 2010. Cargo operations were not materially affected by the earthquake, nor were the passenger operations of LAN or its subsidiaries in Peru, Ecuador and Argentina.

During 2010 we operated an average fleet of 18 Airbus A320-Family Aircraft in the Chilean domestic market, and we plan to operate an average fleet of 21 Airbus A320-Family Aircraft in 2011. Domestic operations in Chile were positively affected by the greater utilization of the latest-generation Airbus fleet and the retirement of the Boeing 737-200s. The new business model was launched nationwide within Chile in April 2007. We reduced sales costs by increasing direct sales from 78% in 2009 to 80% in 2010 (with 63% of our 2010 sales done through the Internet) and by reducing agency commissions from 6% to 1% in February 2007. We also increased fleet utilization, crew productivity and the average flight leg through schedule changes. Additionally, we simplified our processes, which helped to increase the self check-in rate from 77% in 2009 to 80% in 2010. Finally, we utilized the greater efficiency of the Airbus aircraft to reach operational efficiencies such as reducing the turn-around time, increasing our punctuality (which reached 94.0% in 2009 and 87.5% in 2010) and lowering fuel consumption. As of February 28, 2011, we operated 100% of our ASKs with our Airbus A320-Family Aircraft fleet
 
According to JAC data, the Chilean domestic market as a whole transported approximately 6.0 million passengers in 2010 and it had an increase of 16% in terms of RPK. Our domestic passenger market share in Chile was 77.5% for 2010 and 75.6% as of  March 31, 2011. During 2010, our main competitors in the domestic market were Sky Airlines and PAL Airlines, which began operations in June 2009. Sky Airlines currently operates a fleet of 13 Boeing 737-200 aircraft and flies to12 destinations. PAL Airlines currently operates a fleet of 4 Boeing 737-200 aircraft and flies to 5 destinations.
 
There are currently no foreign airlines participating in the Chilean domestic market. Chile permits foreign airlines to operate in Chile if the airline’s home country gives similar treatment to Chilean airlines. Additionally, there are no regulatory barriers that prevent a foreign airline from creating a Chilean subsidiary and entering the Chilean domestic market using that subsidiary.
 
Operations within Peru
 
Lan Peru started operations in 1999 with domestic and international flights from Lima. During the past ten years, Lan Peru has expanded consistently, consolidating its domestic operations and coverage of relevant markets.
 
Regarding the domestic market, Peru has tremendous potential compared to other Latin American markets based on per capita travel ratios.  In 2010 the domestic market reached 5.0 million passengers and 6.4 million passengers are expected for 2011.
 
LAN Peru has one of the most modern fleets in Latin America, operating 19 Airbus A319 aircraft, with twelve for domestic operations and seven for regional operations.  This fleet is ideal for Peruvian routes, as it maximizes available payload in high-altitude airports with tail wind conditions. This uniform fleet also allows for low maintenance costs, high crew productivity and operational flexibility.
 
Compared to 2009, Lan Peru’s domestic operations in Peru showed an expansion of 8.9% during 2010, due to an increase in the number of flights to existing destinations. According to data provided by the Corporación Peruana de Aeropuertos y Aviación Comercial S.A. (the Peruvian Airport and Commercial Aviation Corporation, or “CORPAC”), our domestic market share in Peru was 62% for 2007, 73% for 2008, 80% for 2009 and 70% for 2010.
 
A total of 3,836,134 passengers traveled on LAN Peru’s domestic Peruvian routes in 2010, which represented an increase of 13% compared to 2009. As of February 28, 2011, competitors included Star Peru, Peruvian Airlines and TACA (which has increased its operations in the domestic market by adding new frequencies to Cusco, Juliaca, Tarapoto and Trujillo).
 
LAN Peru expects to increase the connections between cities within the country.  Cusco, the country’s most important tourist destination, accounts for most of LAN Peru’s domestic operations and is served by 16 (and even 21 during certain periods) flights each day. LAN Peru flies at least two times daily to each of its 13 destinations from Lima with Tumbes as an exception (10 flights a week).

 
37

 

Regarding airport services, LAN Peru has over 141 domestic daily arrivals and departures.  Self-check in levels have grown steadily in the past years, reaching 83% for domestic routes at the end of 2010.
 
In 2010, LAN Peru was awarded the “Gran Marca Moderna” by the Effie Awards (a Marketing Hall of Fame distinction), and was the first airline in the country to receive this honor.
 
Operations within Argentina
 
Lan Argentina initiated services in June 2005, covering two Argentine domestic destinations from Buenos Aires, Cordoba and Mendoza. Between 2005 and 2007, Lan Argentina increased the number of Argentine domestic destinations to nine adding Bariloche, Iguazu, Comodoro Rivadavia, Rio Gallegos, Ushuaia, Calafate and Salta. In June 2008, Lan Argentina initiated services to Neuquen and in September 2008 to San Juan. In April 2009, Lan Argentina initiated services to Tucuman.
 
From June to November 2006, Lan Argentina replaced its Boeing B737-200 fleet, which consisted of five aircraft, four of which were Airbus A320 aircraft. We use these aircraft in both domestic and regional operations. The replacement of these aircraft enabled Lan Argentina to increase the scope, size and efficiency of its operations. By the end of December 2010, we operated a fleet of eight Airbus A320 aircraft in our domestic operations.
 
In the domestic Argentine market, Lan Argentina operates in a regulated environment in which fares sold to Argentine passengers are subject to minimum and maximum prices that vary per route. In August 2006, by presidential decree, both the floor and ceiling of the regulated price range were increased by 20%. The decree liberalized foreign ownership of Argentinean airlines, previously capped at 49%. Since this decree, the floor and ceiling of the regulated price range have been consistently increased as follows:  by 18% in April 2008, by 18% in May 2008, by 20% in 2009, by 15% in June 2010 and by 10% in November 2010.
 
Our domestic market share in Argentina, based on our internal estimates for December 2010 amounted to 27%. Our competitors in the Argentinean market during 2010 were Aerolíneas Argentinas and its affiliate Austral Líneas Aéreas. Together, these two companies held substantially the entire remaining share of the domestic Argentine market.
 
Operations within Ecuador
 
At the end of 2008, the Civil Aviation National Board authorized us to operate domestic flights in Ecuador. In April 2009, we initiated the operations between Quito and Guayaquil.
 
In December 2009, LAN Ecuador operated 49 weekly flights between Quito and Guayaquil, one of Latin America’s major routes. The company also began daily flights between Cuenca and Quito. As of February 28, 2011, LAN Ecuador operated 63 flights between Quito and Guayaquil. In September 2010, the company incorporated daily flights to the Galapagos Islands.
 
In 2010, LAN Ecuador transported 623,104 passengers in the domestic passenger market, achieving a load factor of 75% with a growth of 70% in passengers in respect with 2009 and a national market of 25%.
 
In Ecuador, the company’s principal competitors are TAME, Aerogal and Icaro.
 
Operations within Colombia (Acquisition of AIRES)
 
On November 26, 2010, LAN acquired Colombian airline Aerovías de Integración Regional S.A., (“Aires”) for US$12 million in cash, in addition to assuming net liabilities of US$87 million. The Colombian market is the second largest market in South America with over 13 million annual domestic passengers and represents a key market in LAN’s consolidation as a leading airline within the region.  Aires is currently the second largest operator in Colombia’s domestic market with approximately a 20% market share as of December 2010.  The Aires fleet consists of 9 B737-700s, 11 Q200 and 4 Q400, all of which are operating leases.
 
The company will replicate LAN’s “low cost” model already operating in the domestic markets of Argentina, Chile, Ecuador and Peru, stimulating demand on domestic flights by providing more Colombian citizens the opportunity to use air transportation.  In the medium term, Aires will evaluate the expansion of international passenger operations and the advantages of any synergies it may obtain from LAN Cargo’s affiliate in Colombia, Lanco, launched in March 2009.

 
38

 

LAN will dedicate its maximum efforts to ensure that the safety, on time performance and service quality standards of its new affiliate are consistent with LAN’s own high standards.  The integration process may involve certain operational changes such as itinerary modifications and efficiency improvements.  This process will not interfere with the continuity of current operations of Aires.
 
Prior to the acquisition of Aires, since May 6, 2010, LAN had an agreement to provide technical support and service consultancy to Colombian airline Aeroasis S.A. (“Aeroasis”) while Aeroasis completed the process of obtaining an operating permit from the Colombian civil aviation authority (Unidad Administrativa Especial de Aeronáutica Civil), within the established deadline of February 2011. This process included the hiring of personnel and development of technical materials, as well as the selection and acquisition of equipment, all in compliance with the applicable legal and regulatory frameworks. On February, 2011 LAN acquired the parent companies of Aeroasis with the purpose to merge with Aires operations.
 
Passenger Alliances and Commercial Agreements
 
The following are our passenger alliances and partnerships as of February 28, 2011:
 
 
·
oneworld®. In June 2000, Lan Airlines and Lan Peru were officially incorporated into the oneworld® alliance along with Aer Lingus. At the time, oneworld® was a global marketing alliance consisting of American Airlines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific Airlines, Qantas, Iberia and Finnair, that, among other benefits, offered improved service to its customers. In April 2007, JAL from Japan, Royal Jordanian from Jordan and Malev from Hungary, together with Lan Ecuador and Lan Argentina, joined the alliance, while AerLingus withdrew from the alliance. In November 2009, Mexicana joined the alliance. In November 2010, S7 Airlines joined oneworld® adding 55 destinations in Russia to the alliance.  Last November 2010, S7 Airlines joined oneworld® adding 55 destinations in Russia to the alliance.  Together, these airlines are able to offer customers travel advantages, such as approximately 750 worldwide destinations, schedule flexibility and reciprocal frequent flyer program benefits. Additionally, oneworld® is the first alliance to deploy full interline e-ticketing between its partners.
 
 
·
American Airlines. Since 1997, Lan Airlines has had an agreement with American Airlines, which enables Lan Airlines and American Airlines to share carrier codes for certain flights on global reservations systems, thereby enabling American Airlines passengers to purchase seats on Lan Airlines flights and vice-versa. The Department of Transportation, or DOT, granted antitrust immunity to our arrangement with American Airlines in October 1999. The antitrust immunity encompasses cooperation in commercial and operational areas such as pricing, scheduling, joint marketing efforts and reductions of airport and purchasing costs, as well as further implementation of cargo synergies in areas such as handling and other airport services. For more information see “—Regulation—U.S. Aeronautical Regulation—Regulatory Authorizations in Connection With Strategic Alliances” below. Through this alliance, we currently offer service to thirty additional destinations in the United States and Canada. In 2005, the DOT granted antitrust immunity to a similar agreement between Lan Peru and American Airlines. This antitrust immunity allows enhanced coordination between Lan Peru and American Airlines, and both companies established in 2007 code-share operations between Peru and the U.S. with additional destinations in both countries.
 
 
·
Iberia. In January 2001, Lan Airlines initiated a code-share agreement with Iberia, pursuant to which we offer passengers between ten and fourteen non-stop frequencies per week between Santiago and Madrid. In subsequent years, other destinations were added to the agreement, such as Alicante, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Bilbao, Brussels, London (Heathrow), Malaga, Milan, Paris, Rome and Zurich. In 2007, Lan Ecuador and Lan Peru set up code-share agreements with Iberia for routes between Ecuador, Peru and Spain; as well as four additional European destinations with Lan Peru and seven destinations with Lan Ecuador.
 
 
·
Qantas. In July 2002, Lan Airlines initiated a code-share agreement with Qantas to operate between Santiago, Chile and Sydney, Australia with a stopover in Auckland, New Zealand. As of February 28, 2011, this code-share agreement includes daily flights operated by Lan Airlines.
 
 
39

 

 
·
British Airways. In 2007, Lan Airlines initiated a code-share agreement with British Airways on Lan Airlines flights between Sao Paulo and Santiago to provide service for British Airways passengers traveling from London to Santiago through a connection in Sao Paulo. This code-share agreement also includes British Airways’ flights between Madrid and London.
 
 
·
Aeromexico. In 2004, we expanded our previous alliance with Aeromexico. The new agreement includes all of our passenger airlines. Under this alliance, we code-share in flights to Mexico from Chile and Peru, as well as to eighteen domestic destinations in Mexico. Additionally, it provides our passengers with benefits such as easier connections and reciprocal accrual and redemption of frequent flyer program rewards.
 
 
·
TAM. In 2007, Lan Airlines and Lan Peru, established regional code-share agreements with TAM Linhas Aéreas. Through this agreement, LAN offers twelve additional destinations in Brazil. LAN also code shares with Transportes Aéreos del Mercosur S.A. (“TAM Mercosur”) with respect to flights from Santiago to Asunción, Paraguay, that are operated by TAM Mercosur. These arrangements provide our passengers with reciprocal accrual and redemption of frequent flyer program rewards. In 2008, Lan Argentina established a code-share agreement with TAM from Buenos Aires to Sao Paulo and vice versa, which includes eight domestic destinations in Argentina and twelve domestic destinations in Brazil.
 
 
·
Cathay Pacific. In May 2010, Lan Airlines initiated a code-share agreement with Cathay Pacific to operate between Santiago, Chile and Hong Kong, China, through connections in Los Angeles, California, New York and Auckland, and in November 2010, Lan Peru initiated a code-share agreement with Cathay Pacific to operate between Lima, Peru and Hong Kong, China, through connections in Los Angeles and San Francisco.
 
 
·
Jetstar Airways. In November 2010, LAN signed an Interline Agreement and a Special Prorate Agreement with Jetstar Airways in order to broaden the destinations offered to LAN’s customers, particularly in the domestic markets of New Zealand, Australia, and South East Asia.
 
 
·
JetBlue. During March 2011, LAN signed an Interline Agreement and a Special Prorate Agreement with JetBlue increasing the connection opportunities between New York and Boston, Washington, Chicago, Pittsburgh and many other US cities through JetBlue’s HUB in JFK.
 
 
·
Other alliances and partnerships: Since 2005, we have had a code-share agreement with Korean Air. Under this agreement we place our code on Korean Air flights between Los Angeles and Seoul, while Korean Air places its code on our flights from Los Angeles to Santiago. In 2004, LAN and Mexicana signed a frequent flyer program that allows for reciprocal accrual and allowance of frequent flyer benefits. Since 1999, Lan Airlines has been in an alliance with Alaska Airlines, which permits us to provide customers with service between Chile and three destinations in the west coast of the U.S. and Canada. Reciprocal accrual and redemption of frequent flyer program rewards is also available for LAN customers flying on Alaska Airlines flights and vice versa.
 
Passenger Marketing and Sales
 
Even though we market our services under the common “LAN” brand, we differentiate our marketing strategies between our long-haul and short-haul services.
 
Our long-haul marketing strategy emphasizes attributes valued by our international customers, including reliability, high quality on-board and ground service, comfort, comprehensive coverage of key South American markets and frequent service to major overseas gateways such as New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Miami, Madrid and Sydney. In order to strengthen our market position, we have continued improving our passenger cabins and service and constantly monitor our corporate image. As such, in December 2008 and May 2009 we completed a retrofit program for our Boeing 767-300 and for our Airbus A340-300 fleet respectively, merging the Business and First Classes cabins into a Premium Business Class featuring full-flat seats, new entertainment units for both Premium Business and Economy cabins, together with a new on-board service.  We invested US$124 million in this retrofit program for all our long haul passenger aircraft, which aims to give our passengers a sense of a “shorter” and more pleasant flight. For our Business passengers, our cabin features an on-board service aimed at providing the passenger with more time to rest, and for our Economy Class passengers, our upgraded entertainment units aim to make the flight a more enjoyable one.

 
40

 

Our long-haul fleet plan includes the incorporation of the new Boeing 787 in 2012. LAN will be the first airline in Latin America, and one of the first in the world, to receive this model whose latest-generation technology and cabin innovations represent a revolution in the airline industry. Passengers will experience the 787’s advantages in the form of higher cabin humidity and increased comfort. These acquisitions will allow us to reach new destinations and boost LAN’s existing services while also continuing to increase the efficiency of our operations and reduce our carbon footprint.
 
Our short-haul operations are designed to better match the customers’ needs in those routes, which are punctuality, reliability, higher frequencies, modern aircraft and efficient operations. As such, these routes now feature modern planes, with leather seats, increased frequencies with more point-to-point flights, improved punctuality and streamlined processes including Internet sales, web check-in and airport self-check-in. We completed the phase-out of our Boeing B737-200 fleet in 2008 and replaced it with modern Airbus Family Aircraft such as A320, A319 and A318.
 
We are constantly focused on delivering the services and flight items valued by customers in order to maintain high levels of customer satisfaction and we continuously monitor our customers’ preferences through surveys and perception studies. As a result, we created the new Premium Economy class on some regional routes in response to comments made by our business travelers. The Premium Economy program grants our customers preferential check-in and boarding, access to our VIP lounges, priority baggage claim, exclusive cabins with only twelve passengers, and personalized attention by our cabin attendants, among other benefits.
 
As mentioned above, we have been implementing a new business model in all our domestic operations (Argentina, Chile, Peru and Ecuador) that seeks to make air travel accessible to more people through low fares supported by a low-cost operation based on the efficient use of our resources. During 2010 LAN received several awards solidifying the Company’s market position. These awards included Best Airline in South America (Skytrax) and Airline Staff Service Excellence in South America (Skytrax).
 
Branding
 
In March 2004, we launched our new “LAN” brand to bring together, under one strong international name, all our local brands such as “LAN Chile,” “LAN Peru,” “LAN Argentina” and “LAN Ecuador.” We developed our new brand and corporate image after an extensive process supported by a leading global branding agency.
 
Our corporate image is based on two core concepts: reliability and warmth, which support our promise of the best travel experience to, from and within South America.  We are also committed to offer our customers with the best coverage to, from and within South America, and to promote sustainable tourism, helping develop the regions where we operate.
 
During 2005 and 2006, we focused on advancing the transition to our new brand image. This included the gradual repainting of our fleet, which was completed in the second quarter of 2006. Our commercial strategy, centered on exploiting the LAN alliance concept, has been widely recognized, as exemplified by Airline Business magazine’s recognition of us in 2004 with its “Airline Strategy Award, Marketing.”
 
Using a single brand enabled our customers to better understand the common service and operating standards among our airlines, and our new image improved our visibility, which enhanced flexibility and increased the efficiency of our marketing efforts.  It also provided a platform for the strategic use in mature markets of the following three powerful sub-brands, all related to the LAN root:
 
 
·
the www.lan.com website for the convenience of our web booking engine and services platform;
 
 
·
LANPASS for our frequent flyer program; and
 
 
·
LANTOURS, a sub-brand through which we offer travel packages, hotels and other ancillary products, as well as promote tourism activities to and from the regions in which we operate.  LANTOURS took hold first in Chile and is gradually being introduced into other key markets.
 
 
41

 

Our regular brand tracking and marketing effectiveness measurements show outstanding results in brand consistency and recognition, improving year after year, with marketing investments managed at healthily stable rates. As the corporate values behind our umbrella brand encompass attributes applicable to both operations, long haul and short haul, a single brand strategy has resulted in significant savings, as we only have to promote one master brand, thereby increasing the efficiency of our marketing efforts.
 
Distribution Channels
 
We use direct and indirect distribution channels. In the past few years, we have focused on streamlining our distribution strategy in order to reduce costs and enhance the effectiveness of our commercial efforts. This effort has resulted in efficiency gains, and we believe it should lead to further benefits in the future.
 
Travel agents conduct indirect sales that accounted for approximately 38% of passengers during 2010. We paid these travel agents standard commissions ranging from 0% to 6% depending on the market and the ticket region type (domestic / international). Consistent with our efforts to reduce commission costs, and in line with current market practices, in recent years we have reduced standard commissions in several markets. However, we are now charging a fee to customers for sales done through our own ticket offices or call centers in most countries, leaving the Internet as the only free-of-charge distribution channel.
 
Travel agents obtain airline travel information and issue airline tickets through Global Distribution Systems, or GDSs, that enable them to make reservations on flights from a large number of airlines. We participate actively in all major international GDSs, including Sabre, Amadeus, Galileo and Worldspan. In return for access to these systems, we pay transaction fees that are generally based on the number of reservations booked through each system. As part of its continued commitment to its passengers, in late 2009, LAN signed a series of agreements with Sabre, one of the major suppliers of IT solutions in the global airline industry. Through these agreements, Sabre will provide the Company with the most advanced technology in reservation and distribution systems, optimization of routes and operational planning. The process of implementing the new system platforms comprises a period of adjustment and migration that will last between two and three years until its full implementation. These agreements represent a major step in terms of innovation by implementing the industry’s most advanced technology to streamline business and operational processes involved in the service the Company provides to its customers. These agreements will serve to provide itineraries that best fit the needs of passengers and to provide simpler, agile and efficient services in airports and in the sales and distribution channels, improving LAN’s services in each of the stages of the travel experience.
 
Direct channels refer to sales by our own ticket offices, contact-centers and website. In 2010, direct bookings accounted for approximately 62% of all our passengers.
 
We have an extensive sales and marketing network in over thirty countries consisting of more than 155 domestic and international points-of-sale owned by us and approximately 37 general sales agents.
 
Our contact-centers support the growth of our operations constituting a sales and a multi-service channel. During 2010, we continued to grow and develop new services to match the increasing expectations of our clients and the growth of our direct sales channels, in particular the www.lan.com website. Our main contact-center located in Santiago accounts for 700 agents (of which 270 are home-based) and 230 agents in Lima. We complement our contact-center’s operations with third-party service providers that add approximately 400 agents who are located in Santiago, Lima and Buenos Aires. In total, all the centers handle more than 28,000 calls/contacts per day, which mainly originate from the regions where we fly (South America, North America, Europe and Australasia) and cover four languages (Spanish, English, Portuguese, French and German). We have continually upgraded our systems by incorporating technological advances to enhance efficiency and customer service.
 
Our website, www.lan.com, is an integral part of our commercial, marketing and service efforts. Together with other direct sales initiatives, our website provides us with an important tool to reduce our distribution costs. Our Internet-related sales have increased significantly in recent years, by 21.9% in 2009 compared to 2008, and 22.0% in 2010 compared to 2009, which amounted to US$646 million in 2010. We are continually improving our website, a key element of our new short-haul model, so that the technological platform can support the expected future growth.

Besides serving as a sales channel, we have utilized our website as a tool to provide value-added services and enhance communications. We send weekly promotional e-mails to more than 3.8 million subscribers. Members of our frequent flyer program receive their monthly balances and other information by e-mail and can access the data and redeem awards through our website. We have an active online marketing program which brings visitors to the website from search engines and travel-related websites.
 
During 2009 we improved several services on the website. We introduced the flexible award redemption service, which enables LANPASS members to obtain flights with their kilometers at any time of year. We also updated our Flight Information System to ensure accurate, real time information.  In addition, we continued to promote our web-based check-in service for domestic and international flights. This system allows those passengers who are not checking-in bags, to go directly to the gate, and the remaining checked-in passengers, to leave their bags at a special bag drop counter and proceed to the gate. In addition to web-based check-in, we have self-check kiosks in 13 airports in Chile, seven airports in Peru, two airports in Argentina and three airports in Ecuador. As of December 31, 2010, the kiosk and web check-in utilization rate increased to 81% for domestic routes in Chile, 82% for domestic routes in Peru, 52% for domestic routes in Argentina and 39% for domestic routes in Ecuador.  Also in 2010 we launched our LAN.com Mobile service, enabling our customers to check-in, verify their flight status and other itineraries using their internet-enabled mobile phones.
 
In 2010 LAN was recognized as the “Latin American e-commerce Company of the Year” by the Latin American e-Commerce Institute.
 
Electronic Ticketing
 
In 1997, we introduced electronic tickets, commonly referred to as e-tickets, and have since worked to increase their use. E-tickets are a key element of our sales efforts through the Internet and our call centers and they also produce important simplifications in our back-office, enabling us to significantly reduce distribution costs. Since 2008, the Company has reached a 100% penetration of e-ticketing on all LAN routes.
 
Also, during 2010 we completed the implementation of interline e-ticketing with all of our oneworld® partners.
 
Advertising and Promotional Activities
 
Our advertisement and promotional efforts are aimed at enhancing our brand positioning and supporting specific aspects of our commercial efforts. These activities include the use of television, print, outdoors and radio advertisements as well as direct and online marketing.
 
During 2010, our campaigns where mainly focused on continuing stimulating demand by implementing a pricing strategy that has made flying more accessible to those traveling especially for tourism. Our various promotional efforts have allowed us to reach new customers and to promote local and regional tourism in the markets where we operate.  This is supported by the unique coverage and travel experience that we offer to those passengers traveling to, from and within South America.
 
On a country-specific level, we carried out a TV campaign in Chile to promote sustainable tourism within the country, inviting people to discover and take care of the wonders of Chile, travelling in an environmentally conscious way.  This was also leveraged by a second TV campaign launched by SERNATUR, Chile’s National Tourism Agency, in partnership with LAN and other members, aimed at promoting local tourism among Chilean citizens.  These efforts show LAN’s ongoing commitment with the development of local communities through the promotion of sustainable tourism.
 
In Peru, we carried out a campaign aimed at communicating LAN’s extensive international coverage through its unique South American network and the oneworld alliance.  The campaign also focused on attributes such as quality of service and travel experience.
 
In Argentina, we launched a campaign aimed at communicating the main reasons why LAN has become the airline of choice, focusing on attributes such as unique service and flight experience, reliability, punctuality and domestic coverage.

In April 2009, LAN Ecuador launched its domestic operations, which constituted a turning point in Ecuador’s domestic market by broadening access to air travel, as a result of lower prices and LAN Ecuador’s world-class service. In 2010, we launched a campaign to communicate the new daily route to the wonderful and exotic Galápagos Islands, as well as the new direct flight from Guayaquil to Miami, offered four times a week.
 
LAN has built a comprehensive database that includes valuable information such as flying preferences, demographic and other relevant customer information, which is used for passenger revenue management (including targeted promotions to different customer segments), thereby reducing dilution and maximizing response rates. This type of information is also a source for customer metrics and monitoring and provides significant management information.  During the past years, the skills involved in profitably exploiting these resources were strengthened with the incorporation of key teams to act locally in Peru, Argentina, Ecuador, the United States and Europe, in close collaboration with the head office.
 
Frequent Flyer Program
 
Our frequent flyer program is called LANPASS. The objective of LANPASS is to generate incremental revenue and customer retention through customer loyalty and targeted marketing. Worldwide, as of December 2010 LANPASS has approximately 4.3 million members.
 
Customers earn kilometers in their LANPASS accounts based on distance flown and class of ticket purchased, or by using services of other participants in the LANPASS program. Based on an award schedule, customers can redeem kilometers for free tickets, upgrades or other products. Under our current frequent flyer program, our passengers are grouped into one standard level and three different elite levels based on each passenger’s flying behavior. These different groups determine which benefits customers are eligible to receive, such as free upgrades on a space-available basis, VIP lounge access and preferred boarding and check-in.
 
Aiming to increase redemptions and broaden redemption alternatives, in 2010 LANPASS offered new redemption options such as an online product catalogue and special wine events where top tier members were invited to redeem their kilometers for the wine offered in LAN’s Premium Business menu. These new offerings along with the traditional rewards already offered resulted in an increase of 25% in kilometers redeemed by LANPASS’ members in 2010.
 
LANPASS has highly rated partners, including other airlines, hotels, car rental agencies, retailers, and credit card issuers from the main financial institutions in Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Argentina and beginning in 2010 in the United States.  These partnerships give our customers the opportunity to accrue additional kilometers for using their services.
 
Through the incorporation of additional partners in 2010, LAN customers accrued 48% more kilometers than in 2009, by using other services different from the services offered by LAN and other airlines.  In the banking segment, LANPASS renewed its partnership with Santander Chile for another five years, spreading LANPASS accrual from credit/debit card to all retail banking offering.  LANPASS also launched a new partnership with BBVA, a leading bank in Argentina, began to issue credit cards in the United States with US Bank, and increased our offering in redemption catalogs in Brazil with Banco Itau.
 
In the non banking segment, LANPASS continues to leverage its member’s purchase behavior to partner with leading players in the markets and become the most attractive loyalty program in the home markets. Last year, LANPASS enter in new industries, such as Automotive, Real Estate, Drugstores and Health Care Centers.
 
As an active member of the oneworld® alliance, we have reciprocal frequent-flyer agreements with all oneworld® carriers. In addition, we have reciprocal agreements with other carriers, such as Alaska Airlines, Aeromexico, Mexicana and TAM, which allow us to benefit from the loyalty of their customers, as they can accrue points under their frequent flyer program when traveling on LAN’s flights.
 
The LANPASS frequent flyer program aims to be the leading loyalty program in all of LAN’s home markets. In the past couple of years, we have implemented a number of marketing initiatives to increase customer’s engagement with the program outside Chile. In 2010, membership in LANPASS grew 36% in Peru, 42% in Ecuador and 32% in Argentina.

Our cargo business generated revenues of US$895.6 million in 2009 and US$1,280.7 million in 2010.  This represented 24.5% and 28.3% of our operating revenues, respectively. Cargo revenues declined 32.1% between 2008 and 2009 primarily due to the global economic crisis that affected the industry and the decline in salmon exports from Chile due to the ISA virus. Nevertheless, during 2010 revenues increased 43.0% on a year-over-year basis as we took advantage of the recovery of world cargo markets.
 
Our cargo business generally operates on the same route network used by our passenger airline business, which is supplemented by freighter-only operations. Overall, it includes approximately 86 destinations (over 66 are operated by passenger and/or freighter aircraft and approximately 20 operated only by freighter aircraft). We complement our own international operations through coordination with our regional affiliates, MasAir in Mexico, ABSA in Brazil and Lanco in Colombia. ABSA also operates in the Brazilian domestic market since March 2009. We carry cargo for a variety of customers, including other international air carriers, freight-forwarding companies, export oriented companies and individual consumers. For information about our fleet, see “—Fleet—General” below.
 
We transport cargo in four ways: (i) in the bellies of our passenger aircraft, (ii) in our own dedicated freighter fleet, (iii) in belly space that we purchase from other airlines and, (iv) in aircraft that we charter or lease pursuant to ACMI contracts (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance). Under the latter, which are also known as “wet-leases,” the lessor operates the aircraft and provides the aircraft, crew, maintenance and insurance pursuant to short- and medium-term contracts.
 
Our international cargo operations are headquartered in Miami, whose geographical location positions it as the natural gateway for Latin American imports and exports to and from the United States. Since 2001 we have operated in our 380,000 square-foot facilities within the Miami International Airport. In 2010 we upgraded this facility to enhance our ability to handle perishables and we leased an additional 117,000 square-foot warehouse close to our main facilities. The United States accounts for the majority of the cargo traffic to and from Latin America. Besides being the main market for Latin American exports by air, the United States is also the main supplier of goods, such as high-tech equipment or spare parts, transported by air to Latin American countries. To complement our own cargo operations to the United States, we have negotiated commercial agreements with American Airlines on some routes from Miami to Brazil.
 
We operate to three destinations in Europe: to Madrid, which we serve via passenger aircraft (using our flights from Santiago, Lima and Guayaquil), Frankfurt (through both passenger flights and freighter operations since October 2002, when we signed our partnership with Lufthansa Cargo (for more information on this agreement see “—Cargo Agreements” below), and Amsterdam (through freighter operations since October 2005).
 
In Latin America, the principal origins of our cargo are Colombia, Chile, Ecuador, Peru, Argentina and Brazil, which represent a large part of our northbound traffic. And for our southbound flights, Brazil is the main import market.

In general terms, cargo flows are unidirectional. This characteristic is a key determinant in the structure of cargo operations as well as in the commercial conditions in the cargo business. This is especially relevant in markets featuring structural imbalances between inbound and outbound flows or during specific periods of such disequilibrium. Lack of demand in one particular direction may force airlines to rely on different markets in order to maximize loads on return flights. Furthermore, demand weakness in one direction may limit the capacity that is profitable to allocate to some routes, therefore creating pressure on fares in order to compensate for weaker revenues in one particular direction. The evolution of our international cargo operations has always been affected by the flow imbalances of the Latin American cargo markets, resulting in a dramatic shift in the relative weight of southbound and northbound cargo flows throughout the years. For example, from 2002 to 2003 our international operations were characterized by very strong export traffic out of Latin America, but gradual increases in import demand, as well as the deceleration of export growth, led to more balanced cargo flows during 2004. Further extension of this trend led to excess demand on southbound routes since 2005.
 
We have designed our operations, route network and commercial strategies with the flexibility required to respond to changing conditions. As such, during 2003 we allocated additional capacity to northbound routes and adjusted fares on northbound routes in response to excess demand. During 2004 we gradually adjusted our operations to leverage a more balanced demand environment by performing an increased number of direct roundtrips between key export and import markets. However, weakness in exports since 2005 has driven us to support the northbound segment of certain routes with stopovers in additional export markets, to reduce northbound fares to stimulate demand and to raise southbound fares.
 
The flexibility that this business model allows based on adaptation to changes in market trends was key for LAN’s operations in 2009 when the business was affected by the contraction of import and export markets in response to the global economic crisis. In addition LAN Cargo saw a sharp drop in salmon exports from Chile as a result of an outbreak of the ISA virus. Such flexibility has also been a key element in the recuperation and growth experienced by LAN Cargo during 2010.
 
Our cargo traffic increased 23.5% between 2009 and 2010, from 2,623 million cargo revenue ton kilometers in 2009 to 3,239 million cargo revenue ton kilometers in 2010. This increase was above the 20.6% growth experienced by cargo traffic of the international airline industry. The company increased its capacity by approximately 20.5%, resulting in a 1.7 point increase in its load factor to 70.1% in December 2010. The increase in capacity was mainly driven by the incorporation of additional freighters, in particular two Boeing 777 freighters received between April and May 2009, as well as higher utilization of the freighter fleet. LAN Cargo transported 779,509 tons of freight in 2010, up by 20.1% compared to 2009.
 
In 2010, LAN’s cargo revenues increased by 43.0% to US$1,280.7 million, representing 29.2% of the Company’s total annual revenues, from US$895.6 million in 2009, when cargo represented 25.4% of annual revenues. The increase in revenues also reflected the 15.8% increase in cargo yields.
 
The sharp contraction of LAN’s traditional markets in 2009 - imports into the region and exports from the region – followed by the rapid recovery of demand in 2010 required the Company to fully lever the flexibility of its business model. During 2009 the Company implemented of a series of measures such as the adjustment of its capacity through a reduction in the number of planes rented under Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance & Insurance (“ACMI”) agreements and adjustments in the operations of its own cargo fleet of Boeing 767F freighters. This process was also reinforced by the incorporation of two new Boeing 777-200F, the most modern and efficient cargo aircraft of their type in the world, with a capacity of 104tons of freight and a range of 9,045 kilometers when carrying its maximum payload. This significant investment allowed LAN to consolidate its regional competitiveness by positioning it as the first airline in the region, and only the second internationally, to use these latest-generation cargo planes.
 
The Company also achieved a significant regional expansion in 2009.  In March, LAN Cargo launched Lanco, a subsidiary in Colombia, which began operations after successfully obtaining the necessary operational and technical certification. It launched its services with two Boeing 767-300Fs, with a capacity for 54 tons of freight, connecting the cities of Bogotá and Medellín with Miami. It is important to note that Colombia is Latin America’s largest market for exports by air to the United States reaching an estimated 200,000 tons annually.

 
46

 

In addition, in March 2009, the Company’s cargo subsidiary in Brazil, ABSA, began operations in that country’s domestic market, with one flight daily, from Monday through Friday, between the cities of Sao Paulo and Manaus. On this route, ABSA operates an advanced-technology Boeing 767-300F with a capacity of 54 tons.  This route accounts for a large part of Brazil’s airfreight traffic. Manaus is the country’s fourth largest city in terms of GDP, with a large number of companies, principally part of the electronics sector, in its industrial pole. The special tax incentives offered by the Amazon capital of Manaus as part of efforts to promote the area’s development, make it an attractive alternative for exporter and importer clients.
 
During 2010, revenue growth in the cargo business continued to reflect the Company’s ability to exploit the expansion in global cargo flows, as well as the development of key strategic initiatives. Active capacity management, with the purpose of optimizing capacity assignation coupled with new revenue management tools to manage cargo rates in response to demand, enabled LAN Cargo to benefit from the growth trends seen in import markets to Latin America, especially to Brazil. The expansion of operations to Europe utilizing the new Boeing 777-200 freighter fleet strengthened the Company’s competitive position and further diversified its revenue base. Additionally, through its Brazilian affiliate, ABSA, the Company continued to strengthen domestic cargo operations in Brazil. During 2010, ABSA launched operations from Sao Paulo to Recife and Fortaleza and added a second daily flight from Sao Paulo to Manaus. The Company also added capacity by securing three leased Boeing 767-300F, two of which were incorporated in late 2010 and one in early 2011. Furthermore, the Company continues to successfully optimize capacity in the bellies of passenger aircraft, maximizing the synergies of the Company’s integrated passenger and cargo operation.
 
During the last five years, we also improved our competitive position as key operators reduced their operations, and competitors such as UPS and FedEx either downsized their operations or exited some markets. Since mid-2004, competition increased as regional carriers added capacity, but despite this increase in competition, we have been able to maintain solid market shares in large part because of the efficient utilization of our fleet and network. Today, on Latin America-United States routes, our main competitors are Centurion, Transportes Aéreos Mercantiles Panamericanos S.A., or TAMPA, and Polar Air, and on the Latin American-Europe routes, our main competitors are Cargolux, Lufthansa Cargo, Martinair and Air France-KLM.
 
Cargo Agreements
 
Since 2002, Lan Cargo and Lufthansa Cargo have had a block space agreement between Europe and Latin America. As part of this agreement, Lan Cargo allocates space to Lufthansa Cargo on its flights between selected cities in Latin America and Europe, and Lufthansa Cargo allocates space to Lan Cargo on its flights between Europe and Brazil and Argentina.
 
We also have agreements with Asian carriers such as Korean Airlines, JAL, China Airlines, Air China and Cathay Pacific through which Lan Cargo receives space allocations from these airlines to move our cargo from Seoul, Tokyo, Taipei, Shanghai and Hong Kong to Los Angeles and Miami connecting with our network. In exchange, Lan Cargo provides them with space from these same two hubs in the United States to all Latin American destinations and also feeds them with westbound cargo.
 
Marketing and Sales
 
Our sales and marketing efforts are carried out either directly when we have a local office or through general sales agents. In Latin America we have our own offices in all key markets. In the United States we have our own offices in Miami, New York and Los Angeles, and work with representatives in various other cities. In Europe we have offices in Frankfurt and Madrid and use agents in other key cities. Finally, in Asia all our sales efforts are done through general sales agents. In total, we maintain a network of more than forty independent cargo sales agencies domestically and internationally.
 
Our cargo marketing strategy emphasizes our combination of freighter and passenger aircraft cargo capacity, which allows customers to ship large, bulky freight, as well as smaller, high-density cargo, fresh products, express shipments, and other types of cargo. Our cargo marketing strategy also emphasizes our high-quality services, scheduling flexibility and punctuality. On some routes, Lan Cargo offers special, value-added products such as Positive Flight Specific or FS, which enables the customer to choose a specific passenger flight to transport its goods. During 2010 we also launched the first phase of a new revenue management project aimed at optimizing yields.

Cargo-Related Investigations
 
In February 2006 the European Commission (“EC”), in conjunction with the Department of Justice of the United States (“DOJ”), initiated a global investigation of a large number of international cargo airlines (among them Lan Cargo, LAN’s cargo subsidiary) for possible price fixing of cargo fuel surcharges and other fees in the European and United States air cargo markets. On December 26, 2007, the European competition authorities notified Lan Cargo and LAN of the initiation of proceedings against twenty-five cargo airlines, among them Lan Cargo, for allegations of anti-competitive behavior in the airfreight business. On January 21, 2009, Lan Cargo announced that it had reached a plea agreement with the DOJ in relation to the DOJ’s ongoing investigation regarding price fixing of fuel surcharges and other fees for cargo shipments. Under the plea agreement, Lan Cargo agreed to pay a fine of US$88 million. In addition, ABSA also reached a plea agreement with the DOJ and agreed to pay a fine of US$21 million. These amounts were stipulated to be paid over a five-year payment schedule starting in 2009.  As of December 31, 2010, the pending amount to be paid during the next four years is approximately US$72 million and has been recorded within “Other Accounts Payable.”
 
On November 9, 2010 the EC imposed fines to 11 air carriers for a total amount of €800 million (equivalent to approximately US$1.1 billion). The fine imposed against Lan Cargo and its parent company, LAN Airlines, totaled €8.2 million (equivalent to approximately US$ 10.9 million).  The Company provisioned US$25 million during the fourth quarter of 2007 for such fines, and maintained this provision until the fine was imposed in 2010.  This was the lowest fine applied by the EC, which includes a significant reduction due to the Company’s cooperation with the Commission during the course of the investigation. In accordance with European Union law, on January 24, 2011 this administrative decision was appealed by Lan Cargo and Lan Airlines to the General Court in Luxembourg. Any judgment by the General Court may also be appealed to the Court of Justice of the European Union.
 
As of December 31, 2010 the Company recorded a US$14.0 million gain (pre-tax) due to the reversal of a portion of the provision related to the investigation in the cargo business carried out by the European Commission. This was as a result of the fine announced in November 2010, which was lower than the amount provided for. This reversal is recorded in Other gains/(losses).
 
The investigation by the DOJ prompted the filing of numerous civil class actions by freight forwarding and shipping companies against many airlines, including Lan Cargo and Lan Airlines, including fifty-four in the United States. The cases filed in the United States were consolidated in the United States District Court, Eastern District of New York and the original complaint was subsequently amended to include additional airlines, including ABSA. In February 2006 the Canadian Competition Bureau (“CCB”), in conjunction with the DOJ, initiated a global investigation of a large number of international cargo airlines (among them Lan Cargo) for possible price fixing of cargo fuel surcharges and other fees in the Canadian air cargo markets. The CCB’s investigation prompted the filing of four separate civil class actions by freight forwarding and shipping companies against many airlines, including Lan Cargo and Lan Airlines in Canada.  Given the current stage of the both proceedings, it is not possible at this time to anticipate with any precision the outcome of the Civil actions filed against Lan Cargo.
 
On April 5, 2008, Brazilian authorities notified ABSA of the initiation of administrative proceedings before the Conselho Administrativo de Defesa Econômica (the Brazilian Antitrust Authority) against several cargo airlines and airline officers, among them ABSA, for allegations of anticompetitive practices regarding fuel surcharges in the air cargo business. Given the current stage of the proceedings, it is not possible at this time to anticipate with any precision the outcome of the civil actions filed against Lan Cargo, although it is expected to be a lengthy process.
 
In June 2008, the Korean Fair Trade Commission notified LAN of an investigation into the air cargo industry and its non-compliance with the Monopoly Regulation and Fair Trade Act and has requested information and documentation from LAN, which LAN duly submitted. On May 26, 2010 the Korean Fair Trade Commission announced the imposition of penalties against 29 other airlines and excluded LAN from further investigation.
 
The New Zealand Commerce Commission also initiated an investigation into potential anti-competitive activities in the international air cargo markets and requested information and documentation from LAN, which LAN duly submitted. On December 15, 2008, the New Zealand Commerce Commission announced it would focus its investigation on ten airlines and excluded LAN from further investigation.

We operate different aircraft types as we perform various different missions ranging from short-haul domestic trips to long-haul trans-continental flights. We have selected our aircraft based on the ability to effectively and efficiently serve these missions while trying to minimize the number of aircraft families we operate.

For short-haul domestic and regional flights we operate the Airbus A320-Family aircraft and, since the acquisition of Aires, we also operate the Boeing 737-700 aircraft, the Dash 8-200 aircraft, and the Dash 8-400 aircraft. The Airbus A320 Family that we currently operate has been incorporated into our fleet pursuant to operating leases or have been purchased directly from Airbus pursuant to various purchase agreements since 1999. In December 2010, we ordered 50 Airbus A320 Family aircraft. Consequently, as of February 28, 2011 we had outstanding orders for 16 Airbus A319 aircraft, 61 Airbus A320 aircraft, and 10 Airbus A321 aircraft for delivery between 2011 and  2016.  Our purchase contracts with Airbus provide for some flexibility with regard to future changes in aircraft types and delivery dates. We believe that our fleet of A320-Family Aircraft will allow us to provide broader service across Latin America as well as the domestic markets that we serve given their longer range. We also believe that they will enable us to increase efficiency levels through reduced fuel consumption and maintenance costs.
 
 
·
For long-haul passenger and cargo flights we operate the Airbus A340-300 aircraft, the Boeing 767-300 passenger aircraft and Boeing 767-300 aircraft’s Freighters 777. The Boeing 767-300 aircraft’s size and range provides an optimal alternative for most of our long-haul passenger and cargo routes. Additionally, the commonality between the passenger and dedicated cargo versions allows us to leverage the ensuing economies of scale. We believe that these aircraft provide a key efficiency advantage over our peers, especially in the cargo business. The Boeing 767-300 aircraft that we currently operate have been incorporated into our fleet pursuant to operating leases or have been purchased directly from Boeing pursuant to various purchase orders since 1997. As of February 28, 2011 we had outstanding orders for nine Boeing 767-300 aircraft.  We also operate five Airbus A340-300 aircraft for long-haul routes. Given their range and four-engine configuration, these aircraft are well suited to perform trans-Atlantic and trans-Pacific missions out of Santiago. In the future, we will operate Boeing 787 aircraft for our long-haul fleet, for which we have placed 26 orders and committed 6 operating leases. We expect to receive our first Boeing 787 in 2012. For our cargo operations, we operate 12 Boeing 767 Freighters and two Boeing 777 Freighters.
 
For more information, see “Additional Information—Material Contracts” under Item 10.
 
During the first quarter of 2009, we initiated the process of incorporation of winglets, advanced technology devices, in all our Passenger and Freighter Boeing 767-300 aircraft. Winglets are placed on the wings of an aircraft causing an approximate 5% reduction in fuel consumption. The total investment in this project amounts to approximately US$ 70 million while as of February 28, 2011, 38 aircraft have been modified and US$ 50.5 million of the total investment has been disbursed. We expect to continue with the implementation of this project during 2011 and 2012 as we continue to receive Boeing 767s.
 
Fleet Leasing and Financing Arrangements
 
Our financing and leasing methods include borrowing from financial institutions and leasing under financial leases, tax leases and operating leases.
 
In 2000, to finance Airbus aircraft, LAN entered into a US$1.3 billion umbrella credit facility with a syndicate of international financial institutions under which the Company borrowed in the form of separate loans in connection with the specific financing requirements of each Airbus aircraft (including pre-delivery and long-term financing). This umbrella facility was guaranteed by the English, French and German Export Credit Agencies. The repayment profile for each aircraft financed under the facility was for a period of up to eighteen years. Under this financing package LAN incorporated Airbus aircraft into its fleet through operating leases, financial leases and tax leases. Even though this facility covered the aircraft scheduled to be delivered under our 1998/9 Airbus purchase agreements through December 31, 2006, the Company decided to fund the 2006 deliveries with a new facility negotiated in 2006. This new facility financed the acquisition of
 
 
·
eight Airbus A319 delivered in 2006;
 
 
50

 

 
·
five A318 and two A320 delivered in 2007;
 
 
·
ten A318, two A319 and two A320 delivered in 2008; and
 
 
·
three A319 delivered in the first quarter of 2009.
 
This new US$920 million facility is similar to the previous one as there are separate loans drawn in connection with the specific financing requirements of each Airbus aircraft and is also based on support guarantees from the European Export Credit Agencies namely Compagnie Francaise d'Assurance pour le Commerce Exterieur (Coface), Euler Hermes Kreditversicherungs-AG (Euler Hermes) and the Secretary of State of Her Britannic Majesty's Government acting by the Export Credits Guarantee Department (ECGD).. Under this financing package LAN incorporated into its fleet Airbus aircraft through financial leases. The facility covered 85% of the purchase price of each aircraft plus the associated export credit agencies premium. The remaining 15% was funded directly by the Company. There is no remaining drawdown availability under this facility.
 
Between 2004 and 2006, LAN ordered fifteen Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft and Freighters for delivery between 2005 and 2008. In 2004 the Company structured a new syndicated facility for US$260 million to finance the entire cost of the two Boeing 767-300 Freighters delivered in 2005 and the first Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft delivered in 2006. In 2005, LAN finalized the syndicated facility to fund the purchase of four Boeing 767-300 Passenger and Freighter aircraft for delivery in 2006. Between 2005 and 2006, LAN also finalized two additional syndicated facilities to fund the purchase of the remaining eight Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft. Three of these aircraft were delivered in 2007, and five were delivered in 2008. Each loan with respect to these aircraft is guaranteed by the Export-Import Bank of the United States (“Ex-Im Bank”) with a twelve-year profile for the financing of 85% of the aircraft value.
 
On June 12, 2005, LAN finished the payments with respect to a Boeing 767-200 aircraft that was held under a financial lease. This aircraft has been subleased to a third party at market rate until December 2011.
 
In 2006, LAN also ordered three additional Boeing 767-300 passenger aircraft for delivery between 2009 and 2010. The first aircraft, which was delivered in November 2009, was financed through the issuance of an Ex-Im-Bank guaranteed bond and through LAN’s own funds (85% and 15%, respectively). The remaining two aircraft were financed through a new Ex-Im Bank guaranteed facility and through LAN’s own funds (85% and 15%, respectively).
 
In April 2007, we entered into two lease agreements with GE Commercial Aviation Services for the lease of two Boeing 777-200LR Freighters, for delivery in 2009. In October 2007, we signed a purchase agreement with the Boeing Company for two additional Boeing 777-200LR Freighters to be delivered in 2011 and 2012.  In March 2010, LAN and the Boeing Company agreed to switch the first Boeing 777-200LR Freighter for two Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft to be delivered in 2011.
 
In the second half of 2007, the Company decided to acquire thirty-two new Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft with deliveries initially scheduled between 2011 and 2016. The Company entered into a purchase agreement with the Boeing Company for 26 of these aircraft and entered into leasing agreement with the International Lease Finance Corporation for the remaining six aircraft.
 
In November 2008, the Company entered into a purchase agreement for four additional Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft to be delivered in 2012. In March 2010, LAN decided to replace three of these passenger aircraft with three Boeing 767-300 Freighters to be delivered between 2013 and 2014. The fourth aircraft was rescheduled to be delivered in 2011.  During the last quarter of 2010, LAN decided to exchange the three Boeing 767 Freighters with three Boeing passenger 767-300 aircraft with deliveries in 2012. As part of this same contract, LAN also ordered a Boeing 777 Aircraft to be delivered in 2012.
 
During 2008, LAN decided to exercise 15 options to acquire A320-Family Aircraft.  Six of these aircraft were delivered in 2010 and the remaining nine are scheduled for delivery in 2011.  In March 2010, LAN entered into a credit facility to finance the entire pre-delivery payments attached to these 15 aircraft.  In April 2010, LAN entered into an agreement to finance the purchase of these 15 aircraft partially guaranteed by the European Export Credit Agencies and partially through its own funds (85% and 15%, respectively).

In the third quarter of 2010, LAN entered into three lease agreements with GE Commercial Aviation Services for the six year lease of Boeing 767-300 Freighters already delivered in November 2010, December 2010 and January 2011.
 
In December 2009, LAN entered into a purchase agreement with Airbus for 30 aircraft of the A320 family to be delivered between 2011 and 2014.
 
As of February 28, 2011, and as a result of the aircraft purchase agreements entered into with Airbus in 2009 and 2010, LAN has 82 Airbus passenger aircraft of the A320 family expected to be delivered between 2011 and 2016.
 
In September 2010, LAN entered into two new six-year operating lease agreements with AerCap for two A320 aircraft for our operations in Colombia.
 
In January 2011, LAN entered into a seven year lease agreement with the Bank of China Aviation Pte. Ltd. for one A320 aircraft.
 
In February 28, 2011, LAN increased its long haul aircraft orders by three Boeing 767-300 Passenger Aircraft with deliveries in the second half of 2012.
 
Regarding our Boeing fleet, three Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft are expected to be delivered in 2011, six Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft are expected to be delivered in 2012, Boeing 787-8/9 passenger aircraft are expected to be delivered between 2012 and 2018 and two Boeing 777-Freighter are expected to be delivered in 2012.
 
As of February 28, 2011, we held 46 aircraft under operating leases compared to 16 as of February, 2010. Twenty five of these aircraft are related to Aires domestic operations which consist of 10 Boeing 737-700, 11 Dash 8-200 and 4 Dash 8-400 aircraft. Under the terms of our operating leases, we are required to return the aircraft in an agreed upon condition at the end of the lease. Although the title to the aircraft remains with the lessor, we are responsible during the lease term for the maintenance, servicing, insurance, repair and overhaul of the aircraft.
 
As of December 31, 2010, aggregate future minimum lease payments required under our aircraft operating leases were US$675million, with US$193 million related to Aires. Our operating leases have terms ranging from three months to twelve years from the date of delivery of the aircraft. For more information, see Note 2.21 to our audited consolidated financial statements.
 
For more information on our expected future capital expenditures in connection with aircraft purchases see “Capital Expenditures” under Item 5.
 
Maintenance
 
Our heavy maintenance, line maintenance and component shop are equipped to service our entire fleet of Airbus and Boeing aircraft. Our maintenance capabilities allow us flexibility in scheduling airframe maintenance, offering us an alternative to third-party maintenance providers.
 
LAN facilities at Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport in Santiago, Chile are among the most extensive in Latin America and have been certified according to IOSA standards and as a FAA approved repair station. Our hangars and components shops at our Santiago repair station can service the Boeing 767, Boeing 777, Airbus 340 and Airbus 320 Family Aircraft fleet. In addition, we have facilities for designing and manufacturing galleys, structures and composite materials, and we have the capability to retrofit aircraft interiors, including sophisticated in-flight entertainment equipment, and blended winglets in the Boeing 767 fleet.
 
Our engineering and maintenance division is supervised by the local Civil Aviation Authority (the Dirección General de Aeronáutica Civil “DGAC”) and is subject to several recurrent external audits from civil aviation authorities and international entities such as the FAA, the Argentine Dirección Nacional de Aeronavegabilidad (the National Directorate of Airworthiness or “DNA”), the Brazilian Agencia Nacional de Aviacao Civil (the ANAC), the International Air Transport Association Operational Safety Audit (“IOSA”) (from the International Air Transport Association or “IATA”) and the International Civil Aviation Organization (“ICAO”), in order to strictly comply with applicable regulations. The audits are conducted in connection with each country’s certification procedures and enable us to continue to perform maintenance for aircraft registered in the certificating jurisdictions. Our repair station holds FAA Part-145 certifications under these approvals.

We also rely on third parties for certain maintenance support for our aircraft and engines. Lufthansa Technik provides our Airbus A320-Family Aircraft and A340 Aircraft component support on a power-by-the-hour basis under a long-term contract, which runs until 2019. International Aero Engines provides the A320 and A319 engine support on a power-by-the-hour contract, which runs for twelve years once each engine is received. Pratt and Whitney provides the A318 engine support on a power-by-the-hour basis contract, which runs for ten years once an engine is received. General Electric provides the maintenance of our Airbus A340 engines under a similar contract, which also runs for twelve years once an engine is received In addition, General Electric provides for the maintenance of most of our Boeing 767 engines under a contract effective until 2014. Third parties also provide certain additional engine maintenance services. Air France-KLM, which services have been contracted until 2015, provides the maintenance of our Boeing 777 engines and components and to our Boeing 767-300 components.
 
We occasionally perform certain maintenance services for other airlines.
 
Our aircraft maintenance personnel participate in extensive training programs at the jointly operated Lufthansa LAN Technical Training S.A., located in Santiago, Chile.
 
In 2010, LAN continued implementing the management system known as LEAN in an effort to increase efficiency, specifically in its operational areas. The adoption of this system constituted a redesigning of processes that permits solving problems that may occur during aircraft maintenance. The foregoing renders the daily tasks and processes carried out within the Company more efficient. Internationally, the LEAN system has been defined as a methodology for achieving excellence and continuous improvement. It seeks to eliminate activities that do not add value to processes, and suppressing those activities that are superfluous, thereby allowing companies to reduce costs, improve processes and increase customer satisfaction.
 
During the last year, LAN continued to benefit from the implementation of LEAN in heavy maintenance. Heavy maintenance is performed approximately every 12–18 months or a specific amount of actual flight hours as defined by the manufacturer.  This maintenance check puts the aircraft out of service. In 2010, we achieved a 20% reduction in the time an aircraft remains in the hangar.  Other benefits of LEAN include a reduction of approximately 80% in errors, a gain of approximately 60% in productivity and a reduction of approximately 60% in labor accidents.  Furthermore, by establishing clear roles, challenges and achievements, the implementation of LEAN has had an important benefit in terms of employee motivation.
 
Safety and Security Corporate Direction
 
The Safety and Security Corporate Direction (“SSCD”) is an internal division in charge of the management of safety and security matters related to flight operations, operative and administrative buildings, organization and coordination of emergency response matters, safety and security audits and safety and occupational health.
 
The SSCD reports directly to LAN’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), which reflects the firm commitment that the Company’s senior management has with its employees. The SSCD is comprised of five independent reporting management areas: safety management, security management, emergency response management, Safety & Security Audit management and Safety and Occupational Health Management .
 
Safety Management
 
We give high priority to providing safe and reliable air service, as it is considered a fundamental asset to LAN and one of the basic pillars for the development of our Company. We have uniform safety standards and safety-related training programs that cover all of our operations. LAN has implemented a Safety and Quality Management System (“SMS”) throughout the operational areas of the Company, which is certified by the Chilean DGAC and IOSA System. The SMS provides clear definitions of the functions and responsibilities regarding operational safety for all persons involved, from the top to the bottom of the operational structure of the airline. It strengthens the commitment and knowledge required from everyone in the Company regarding any and all actions that could affect safety.
 
The Operational Safety Director (“OSD”) is responsible for the Operational Safety Oversight and the implementation of the SMS. The OSD supervises a staff of approximately twenty-one safety specialists of different backgrounds, including pilots, aeronautical engineers, aircraft maintenance engineers, a psychologist, and dangerous goods and ground handling safety specialists.

Our corporate operational safety organization consists of four main areas:
 
 
·
Flight Safety Management: The Flight Safety Area oversees and audits our operational safety measures, investigates major incidents and programs and controls the LOSA and FOQA Programs (as defined below). The Flight Safety Area also oversees and audits safety measures related to ground handling and cargo areas and investigates related incidents.
 
 
·
Maintenance Safety Management: The Maintenance Safety Area oversees and audits our maintenance safety measures and investigates maintenance-related incidents.
 
 
·
Flight Data Monitoring Management: The Flight Data Monitoring Area is responsible for the maintenance and administration of the recorded flight data and safety-related databases and software.
 
 
·
Corporate Quality Management: The Corporate Quality Management Area is responsible for the administration of Internal Evaluation Program conducting organization-wide audits in all operational areas.
 
The main safety programs, elements and procedures include:
 
 
·
Flight Operations Quality Assurance (“FOQA”). Since the end of 2002, LAN has been implementing a Flight Data Monitoring (“FDM”) program using two different analysis programs. The FDM program is fully developed for the A320-Family Aircraft, A340,Boeing B767, and B777 fleet. The statistical information obtained has produced standard operational procedure changes and valuable inputs to the Advance Qualification Program project. We have also fully developed a maintenance variation for the same fleets which monitors the engines, flight controls and general performance of the airplanes.
 
 
·
Mandatory Occurrence and Mandatory Reports. Our operations policy manuals define the incidents that require a mandatory report. On a voluntary basis, personnel can provide confidential reports to the flight safety area in hard copy or electronic form.
 
 
·
Safety Information Management. All safety information regarding all occurrences is entered into dedicated software, where it is analyzed according to its potential risk. Important incidents are investigated thoroughly. The relevant areas related to each particular incident implement corrective actions with the assistance of the corporate operational safety directory.
 
 
·
Line Operation Safety Audit (“LOSA”). LOSA is a program designed to survey and analyze the safety components of our equipment and operations. LOSA observations have been conducted on the A-340, A-320 and Boeing B767 fleets. In 2007, a second LOSA observation has been applied to the A-340 fleet, which has given important information of the effectiveness of the corrective actions recommended by the first observation conducted in 2004.
 
 
·
Human Factors Program. This program is based on a manual developed by LAN that includes all interconnectivities between flight operations and human factors. The program includes a Fatigue Risk Management Program that is being implemented since 2008.  The program also includes Crew Resource Management and Flight Crews Training and study of incidents using the Threat and Error Management (“TEM”) model.
 
 
·
Quality Assurance and IOSA Certification Programs. Our flight and maintenance safety areas have a quality assurance system and are currently certified ISO 9001-2000. Our safety management system is based on the ISO 9001-2000 standards. We also periodically evaluate the skills, experience and safety records of our flight crews in order to maintain strict control over the quality of our flight crews. All of our aircraft pilots participate in training programs, some of which are sponsored by aircraft manufacturers, and all are required to undergo recurrent training. LAN Airlines, and passenger subsidiaries are IOSA registered. Currently, cargo subsidiaries IOSA audits are ongoing.
 
 
54

 

We also have an operational safety committee, composed of senior executives and key operational managers, responsible for the initiation of safety-related actions.
 
All of our Boeing 767, A320, A340 and Boeing 777 fleets are equipped with an enhanced ground proximity warning system, a traffic collision avoidance system, a wind shear detection system and reduced vertical separation minimum capabilities.
 
Since 1991, we have had no accidents involving major injury to passengers, crew or aircraft.
 
Security Management
 
The main policy and the essential principle of the Company is to ensure an adequate security protection to all its flights, aircraft, passengers, crew members, ground personnel, airport facilities and other services related to the commercial civil aviation against any threat or unlawful action.
 
The Company has implemented corporate policies and a quality management system through the operational system to detect any lack of security in its operations. Audits and assessments are used to assign different levels of security to international and domestic operations.
 
The Corporate Security Manager (“CSM”) has the responsibility to evaluate, analyze and assign threat levels (high, medium, low) to international and domestic operations, proposing security procedures for each scenario. The CSM leads an organization of five security managers and approximately fifteen security specialists. The current CSM is a former police officer with more than 25 years of experience in the civil aviation.
 
The corporate security organization has five main areas:
 
 
·
Domestic Security Operations: that report to a former police officer with more than 20 years of experience in civil aviation.
 
 
·
International Security Operations: that report to a former police officer, with more than 20 years of experience in civil aviation.
 
 
·
North America, Caribbean and Europe Security Operations: that report to a security specialist, with more than 18 years of experience in civil aviation.
 
 
·
Argentinean Security Operations: that report to a security specialist, with more than 30 years of experience in civil aviation.
 
 
·
Peruvian Security Operations: that report to a security specialist, with more than 19 years of experience in civil aviation.
 
Each of the five areas is subdivided in internal investigations, fraud, training, cargo security, security of facilities and quality control.
 
Since 2002, the Company’s Corporate Security Manual unified international and domestic security procedures:
 
 
·
Manual de Gestión de Seguridad (Manual of Security Management). The basis for local security procedures.
 
 
·
Airport Security Plan or Airport Security Program. Approved by the DGAC for each country in which we have operations.  It includes procedures to prevent unlawful conduct and procedures for a bomb threat or hijacking drill.

Fuel Supplies
 
Fuel costs comprise the single largest category of our operating expenses. Over the last years, our fuel consumption and operating expenses have increased due to the significant growth in our operations and to the increase in fuel prices as a result of economic and political factors. In 2010, the foregoing trend was enhanced by the global economic recovery and the total fuel costs represented 29.79% of our total operating expenses.  The into-wing (fuel price plus taxes and transportation costs) 2010 average final price was US$2.32 per gallon, representing a 9.4% increase from the 2009 average. We can neither control nor accurately predict the volatility of fuel prices. Despite the foregoing, it is possible to partially offset the price volatility risk through our hedging and fuel surcharge programs in place in both our passenger and cargo business. For more information, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk —Risk of Fluctuations in Jet Fuel Prices” under Item 11.
 
The following table details our consolidated fuel consumption and operating costs (which exclude fuel costs related to charter operations in which fuel expenses are covered by the entity that charters the flight) during the last three years.

We have entered into fuel contracts to serve operations to more than sixty international and domestic destinations around the world.  Contractual terms and conditions vary for each location depending on market conditions, logistics network, volume, economic and political factors, among others. In 2010, approximately 26.0% of our total fuel consumption was originated in Chile where we maintain a long-term commercial relationship with a joint venture between Air BP and Copec, and where we have entered into specific supply contracts with Petrobras Aviation and Shell Aviation. We have more than twenty additional suppliers in our network such as Repsol YPF, Cepsa, Petroperu, Chevron, Air Total, Q8 Aviation and Exxon Mobil. In our secondary hubs we have the following fuel suppliers: Shell Aviation (Miami), Exxon Mobil and Petroperu (Lima), Exxon Mobil, Repsol YPF and Shell (Buenos Aires) and PetroEcuador (Guayaquil).
 
Ground Facilities and Services
 
Our main operations are based at the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport in Santiago, Chile. We also operate from various other airports in Chile and abroad. We operate hangars, aircraft parking and other airport service facilities at the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport and other airports throughout Chile pursuant to concessions granted by the DGAC. We also maintain one customs warehouse at the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport, additional customs warehouses in Chile (Iquique, Antofagasta and Punta Arenas) and Argentina (Aeroparque) and operate cargo warehouses at the Miami International Airport to service our cargo customers. Our facilities at Miami International Airport include corporate offices for our cargo and passenger operations and temperature-controlled and freezer space for imports and exports.
 
We have VIP lounges at the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport. The 7,500 square foot Neruda lounge, which represented an investment of approximately US$550,000 in 2001, has been widely acclaimed. In 2005, Latin Trade magazine selected it as the “Best Airline Lounge” in Latin America. In the same airport we also have the 4,300 square foot Mistral lounge.
 
Finally, we incur certain airport usage fees and other charges for services performed by the various airports where we operate, such as air traffic control charges, take-off and landing fees, aircraft parking fees and fees payable in connection with the use of passenger waiting rooms and check-in counter space.
 
During 2010, APV’s (“In-flight Service Supplier”) new 1,650 square meter facilities were completed in the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benitez International Airport.
 
The development of the new building for the facilities of Andes Airports Services (“Andes,” which performs ground handling services) is in process which is scheduled to be delivered at the beginning of 2012.
 
Ancillary Airline Activities
 
In addition to our airline operations, we generate revenues from a variety of other activities. In 2010, LAN generated other revenues of US$132.8 million from ancillary activities.
 
Our total revenue from aircraft leases (including subleases, dry-leases, wet-leases and capacity sales to certain alliance partners) and charter flights amounted to US$13.1 million in 2010.
 
LAN also provides cargo-related services such as courier, warehousing, value-added door-to-door services and customs services, through various subsidiaries.  During 2010, our logistics and courier businesses generated revenues of US$36.8 million while customs and warehousing services generated US$ 24.7 million. During January 2011, in relation with our courier business, we signed a promise of sale of our subsidiaries Blue Express Intl. Servicios de Transporte Limitada and Blue Express S.A. (together referred to as “Blue Express”), through which we operate vans and trucks and offer distribution and warehouse services throughout Chile. In April 2011, LAN sold Blue Express to Bethia S.A. a related party of LAN, for US$54.0 million. Since Blue Express’ book value is US$9.1 million, the sale generates a non-operational profit of approximately US$44.9 million, which will be reflected in the second quarter of 2011 financial results.
 
During 2010, we had revenues of US$28.1 million for tours and US$12.0 million for duty-free in-flight sales. The balance of our operating revenues, US$18.1 million in 2010, was generated by maintenance and handling. Other revenues in 2010 decreased mainly because of  fewer revenues from aircraft leases, tours and travel services, but this decrease was partially offset by higher revenues from customs and warehousing and from duty-free sales.

Insurance
 
We carry hull insurance that includes, among other coverage, “all risk,” war and allied risks, spares and liability for passengers, cargo, mail, baggage and third parties. We renew our insurance coverage yearly, and are subject to deductibles that vary depending on the coverage type and the loss type. Our deductibles are US$1,250 for loss or damage associated with passengers’ baggage liabilities, US$10,000 for loss or damage associated with cargo liabilities and between US$500,000 and US$1.0 million for hull “all risk” insurance (depending on the aircraft type). Additionally, we have hull deductible coverage to reduce the net hull deductible to US$100,000 per occurrence (aircraft and/or engine).
 
Since December 2006, we have negotiated common terms for Hull All Risk, Aviation Legal Liabilities and Spares coverage, together with British Airways, Aer Lingus and their affiliates and franchises which allows us to obtain premium reductions and coverage improvements.
 
Our insurance coverage has a one-year term starting in April of each year. The aggregate cost of our insurance coverage for the 2010 calendar year was US$15.6 million, which represents a 2.6% increase in insurance expenses and a 2.0% decrease in average insurance rates compared to the 2009 calendar year.
 
Aires is covered under a separate insurance policy, and its acquisition in 2010 resulted in an additional insurance cost of US$600,000 during 2010.
 
Information Technology
 
General
 
We use information technology in almost every aspect of our business.
 
Our reservations, departure control (check-in), inventory, flight planning and baggage tracing systems are operated by Amadeus, Sabre, Iberia and SITA, and we operate our internal systems from two data center facilities in Santiago, Chile. In 2006, we implemented a Disaster Recovery Plan between those two sites in order to ensure the functionality of our critical systems, with a recovery time objective of four days.  The line of business infrastructure currently has an average recovery time of two hours for 80% of our systems and two days for the remaining 20%.
 
Third-party suppliers provide us with the following technical infrastructure elements:
 
 
·
wide-area data network (provided mainly by SITA and Telefónica); and
 
 
·
data centers and desktop operations and support (provided by Accenture and IBM).
 
Basic Infrastructure Operation
 
Since early 2010, we have outsourced our IT infrastructure with Accenture and IBM worldwide. IBM manages the data center and Accenture handles our desktop equipment. This outsourcing allowed us to:
 
 
·
deliver a standard world-class service;
 
 
·
increase the efficiency of our IT operations;
 
 
·
convert fixed costs into variable costs;
 
 
·
guarantee that the service standards (such as up-time and response time) required by critical processes of our business are fulfilled;
 
 
·
accelerate critical infrastructure projects while significantly reducing the resources required;
 
 
·
increase the efficiency of our personnel; and
 
 
·
focus internal IT efforts on business functions, rather than basic hardware and software issues.
 
Telecommunications
 
We have used the latest technology available with regard to our global telecommunications network. Our network has the capacity to transport voice, data, and video with the quality required by the Company, combining traditional private data channels with virtual private networks through the Internet.
 
 
59

 
 
Front-End Systems
 
During 2002, we deployed new systems to support our sales personnel. These systems provide the employees who have a direct contact with our customers with additional tools to improve service, enhance customer information and increase efficiency. During 2004 and 2005, we implemented these systems at our airport counters and our call centers.
 
Since 2005, we have favored a strategy of encouraging and facilitating self service alternatives for customers, through improving the functionality of the www.lan.com website as well as implementing self check-in kiosks in airports.
 
During 2009, we deployed a new online system in order to provide the processes that our engineering, maintenance and materials areas develop, with technological solutions.  This project has allowed us to establish and automate simple and integrated processes, standardize processes for the Company (including our subsidiaries and related companies), facilitate handling of materials and maintenance, make relevant information available in a full, unique and consistent way to all users, and optimize distribution and execution (planned and non planned), among other benefits.
 
Enterprise Resource Planning
 
In 2002, we purchased an enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system from SAP. This system was fully implemented in the second quarter of 2004 for Lan Airlines and almost all of its subsidiaries. This ERP system includes modules covering areas such as: finance, accounting, inventory management, human resources, business warehouse, as well as a user-friendly portal. We are currently working on optimizing and simplifying this system, and in leveraging it to increase the efficiency of our back-office processes.
 
Development and Maintenance System
 
With respect to new development needs, our first choice is to acquire existing packaged software, but we outsource this service when such software is not available in the market.  Since early 2007, we have outsourced our IT system development to three principal vendors:  TATA Consultancy Services, Everis and Indra.  Thanks to this outsourcing initiative, we have achieved:
 
 
·
a decrease in project delays;
 
 
·
an increase in systems reliability; and
 
 
·
a shift in the efforts of the internal IT department to a more business oriented perspective.
 
New initiatives
 
We are implementing a new host (“Host”). A Host change is one of the most important decisions for the passenger business division in an airline in terms of process and technology. It consists in replacing the PSS, or Passenger Service System, that contains the reservation, inventory and departure control systems of an airline. This decision permits the understanding of the software from an aviation industry provider in ASP mode, adherence to standard processes and best industry practices and the integration of multiple legacy applications that complement the needs of the processes model for the airline business. For LAN, the Host change implies going from two suppliers (Amadeus and Resiber) currently covering the role of the complete PSS, to a single supplier (Sabre). This project represents an investment of approximately US$70.0 million, and is expected to provide immediate savings of 75% per passenger in reservation transaction costs and is estimated to be in place during March 2012.
 
The IT department expects to implement a Technology Refreshing Project between 2010 and 2012, to move to the platforms that will host our applications and services for the next five years.  During 2010, Lan Airlines will define the Technology Refreshing Project and all the platforms, software, solutions and services that it will use to support its business. These hardware and software solutions will be gradually implemented   between 2011 and 2012.
 
We are also buying new airplanes, namely, Boeing 787 aircraft. The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is Boeing's most fuel-efficient aircraft and is the world’s first e-Enabled commercial airplane.
 
 
60

 
 
The Boeing 787 combines the integrated information and communications systems to drive operational efficiency and streamline airplane maintenance. The e-Enabled tools on the 787 will be a significant change from any other commercial airplane previously operated. The extensive e-Enabling on the 787 increases the need for network connectivity, hardware and software improvements, and systems management practices.
 
Regulation
 
Below is a brief reference to the material effects of aeronautical and other regulations in force in each of the relevant jurisdictions in which LAN and its subsidiaries operate.
 
Chile
 
Aeronautical Regulation
 
Both the DGAC and the JAC oversee and regulate the Chilean aviation industry. The DGAC reports directly to the Chilean Air Force and is responsible for supervising compliance with Chilean laws and regulations relating to air navigation. The JAC is the Chilean civil aviation authority. Primarily on the basis of Decree Law No. 2,564, which regulates commercial aviation, the JAC regulates the assignment of international routes, and the compliance with certain insurance requirements, and the DGAC regulates flight operations, including personnel, aircraft and security standards, air traffic control and airport management. We have obtained and maintain the necessary authority from the Chilean government to conduct flight operations, including authorization certificates from the JAC and technical operative certificates from the DGAC, the continuation of which is subject to the ongoing compliance with applicable statutes, rules and regulations pertaining to the airline industry, including any rules and regulations that may be adopted in the future.
 
Chile is a contracting state, as well as a permanent member, of the ICAO, an agency of the United Nations established in 1947 to assist in the planning and development of international air transport. The ICAO establishes technical standards for the international aviation industry, which Chilean authorities have incorporated into Chilean laws and regulations. In the absence of an applicable Chilean regulation concerning safety or maintenance, the DGAC has incorporated by reference the majority of the ICAO’s technical standards. We believe that we are in material compliance with all relevant technical standards.
 
Route Rights
 
Domestic Routes. Chilean airlines are not required to obtain permits in connection with carrying passengers or cargo on any domestic routes, but only to comply with the technical requirements established by the DGAC. Non-Chilean airlines are permitted to provide domestic air service between destinations in Chile, provided that the country in which the foreign airline is based grants a reciprocal right to Chilean airlines. There are no regulatory barriers that would prevent a foreign airline from creating a Chilean subsidiary and entering the Chilean domestic market using that subsidiary.
 
International Routes. As an airline providing services on international routes, Lan Airlines is also subject to a variety of bilateral civil air transport agreements that provide for the exchange of air traffic rights between Chile and various other countries. There can be no assurance that existing bilateral agreements between Chile and foreign governments will continue, and a modification, suspension or revocation of one or more bilateral treaties could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial results.
 
International route rights, as well as the corresponding landing rights, are derived from a variety of air transport agreements negotiated between Chile and foreign governments. Under such agreements, the government of one country grants the government of another country the right to designate one or more of its domestic airlines to operate scheduled services to certain destinations of the former and, in certain cases, to further connect to third-country destinations. In Chile, when additional route frequencies to and from foreign cities become available, any eligible airline may apply to obtain them. If there is more than one applicant for a route frequency the JAC awards it through a public auction for a period of five years. The JAC grants route frequencies subject to the condition that the recipient airline operate them on a permanent basis. If an airline fails to operate a route for a period of six months or more, the JAC may terminate its rights to that route. International route frequencies are freely transferable. In the past, we have generally paid only nominal amounts for international route frequencies obtained in uncontested auctions.
 
 
61

 
 
Airfare Pricing Policy. Chilean airlines are permitted to establish their own domestic and international fares without government regulation, as long as they do not abuse any dominant market position they may enjoy. For more information, see “Antitrust Regulation” below. Airlines may file complaints before the Antitrust Court with respect to monopolistic or other pricing practices by other airlines that violate Chile’s antitrust laws. In 1997, the Antitrust Commission approved and imposed a specific self-regulatory fare plan for our domestic operations consistent with the Antitrust Commission’s directive to maintain a competitive environment. According to this plan, we must file notice with the JAC of any increase or decrease in standard fares on routes deemed “non-competitive” by the JAC and any decrease in fares on “competitive” routes at least twenty days in advance. We must file notice with the JAC of any increase in fares on “competitive” routes at least ten days in advance. In addition, the Chilean authorities now require that we justify any modification that we make to our fares on non-competitive routes. We must also ensure that our average yields on a non-competitive route are not higher than those on competitive routes of similar distance.
 
Registration of Aircraft. Aircraft registration in Chile is governed by the Chilean Aeronautical Code (“CAC”). In order to register or continue to be registered in Chile, an aircraft must be wholly owned by either:
 
 
·
a natural person who is a Chilean citizen; or
 
 
·
a legal entity incorporated in and having its domicile and principal place of business in Chile and a majority of the capital stock of which is owned by Chilean nationals, among other requirements established in article 38 of the CAC.
 
The Aeronautical Code expressly allows the DGAC to permit registration of aircraft belonging to non-Chilean individuals or entities with a permanent place of business in Chile. Aircraft owned by non-Chileans, but operated by Chileans or by an airline which is affiliated with a Chilean aviation entity, may also be registered in Chile. Registration of any aircraft can be cancelled if it is not in compliance with the requirements for registration and, in particular, if:
 
 
·
the ownership requirements are not met; or
 
 
·
the aircraft does not comply with any applicable safety requirements specified by the DGAC.
 
Safety. The DGAC requires that all aircraft operated by Chilean airlines be registered either with the DGAC or with an equivalent supervisory body in a country other than Chile, so long as that country is a member of the Warsaw Convention. All aircraft must have a valid certificate of airworthiness issued by either the DGAC or an equivalent non-Chilean supervisory entity. In addition, the DGAC will not issue maintenance permits to a Chilean airline until the DGAC has assessed the airline’s maintenance capabilities. The DGAC renews maintenance permits annually, and has approved our maintenance operations. Only DGAC-certified maintenance facilities or facilities certified by an equivalent non-Chilean supervisory body in the country where the aircraft is registered may maintain and repair the aircraft operated by Chilean airlines. Aircraft maintenance personnel at such facilities must also be certified either by the DGAC or an equivalent non-Chilean supervisory body before assuming any aircraft maintenance positions.
 
Security. The DGAC establishes and supervises the implementation of security standards and regulations for the Chilean commercial aviation industry. Such standards and regulations are based on standards developed by international commercial aviation organizations. Each airline and airport in Chile must submit an aviation security handbook to the DGAC describing its security procedures for the day-to-day operations of commercial aviation and procedures for staff security training. Lan Airlines has submitted its aviation security handbook to the DGAC. Chilean airlines that operate international routes must also adopt security measures in accordance with the requirements of applicable bilateral international agreements.
 
Airport Policy. The DGAC supervises and manages airports in Chile, including the supervision of take-off and landing charges. The DGAC proposes airport charges, which are approved by the JAC and are the same at all airports. Since the mid-90s, a number of Chilean airports have been privatized, including the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport in Santiago. At the privatized airports, the airport administration manages the facilities under the supervision of the DGAC and JAC.
 
 
62

 
 
Environmental and Noise Regulation. There are no material environmental regulations or controls imposed upon airlines, applicable to aircraft, or that otherwise affect us in Chile, except for environmental laws and regulations of general applicability. There is no noise restriction regulation currently applicable to aircraft in Chile. However, Chilean authorities are planning to pass a noise-related regulation governing aircraft that fly to and within Chile. The proposed regulation will require all such aircraft to comply with certain noise restrictions, referred to in the market as Stage 3 standards. LAN’s fleet already complies with the proposed restrictions so we do not believe that enactment of the proposed standards would impose a material burden on us.
 
Argentina
 
Aeronautical Regulation.
 
Both the Administración Nacional de Aviación Civil (“ANACI”) and the Secretary of Transport oversee and regulate the Argentinean aviation industry. ANACI regulates flight operations, including personnel, aircraft and security standards, air traffic control and airport management, and reports indirectly to the Ministry of Planning and is responsible for supervising compliance with Argentinean laws and regulations relating to air navigation. The Secretary of Transport also reports to the Ministry of Planning and regulates the assignment of international routes and matters related to tariff regulation policies. We have obtained and maintain the necessary authorizations from the Argentinean government to conduct flight operations, including authorization certificates and technical operative certificates from ANACI, the continuation of which is subject to the ongoing compliance with applicable statutes, rules and regulations pertaining to the airline industry, including any rules and regulations that may be adopted in the future.
 
Argentina is a contracting state and a permanent member of the ICAO, an agency of the United Nations established in 1947 to assist in the planning and development of international air transport. The ICAO establishes technical standards for the international aviation industry, which Argentinean authorities have incorporated into Argentinean laws and regulations. In the absence of applicable Argentinean regulation concerning safety or maintenance, the ANACI has incorporated by reference the majority of the ICAO’s technical standards. We believe that we are in material compliance with all relevant technical standards.
 
Route Rights
 
Domestic Routes. In Argentina airlines are required to obtain permits in connection with carrying passengers or cargo on any domestic routes, and to comply with the technical requirements established by the local authority. There are no regulatory barriers preventing a foreign airline from creating an Argentine subsidiary and entering the Argentine domestic market using that subsidiary. However, ownership of such subsidiary by the foreign airline may not be direct, but through a subsidiary formed in Argentina, which in turn may be directly or indirectly owned by the foreign company. However, such subsidiary should operate Argentine registered aircraft and employ Argentine aeronautical personnel.
 
International Routes. As an airline providing services on international routes, Lan Argentina is also subject to a variety of bilateral civil air transport agreements that provide for the exchange of air traffic rights between Argentina and various other countries. There can be no assurance that existing bilateral agreements between Argentina and foreign governments will continue. Furthermore, a modification, suspension or revocation of one or more bilateral treaties could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial results.
 
International route rights, as well as the corresponding landing rights, are derived from a variety of air transport agreements negotiated between Argentina and foreign governments. Under such agreements, the government of one country grants the government of another country the right to designate one or more of its domestic airlines to operate scheduled services to certain destinations of the former and, in certain cases, to further connect to third-country destinations. In Argentina, when additional route frequencies to and from foreign cities become available, any eligible airline may apply to obtain them. ANACI grants route frequencies subject to the condition that the recipient airline operate them on a permanent basis. If an airline fails to operate a route for a period of six months or more, the ANACI may terminate its rights to that route.
 
Airfare Pricing Policy. Argentine airlines are permitted to establish their own international fares without government regulation, as long as they do not abuse any dominant market position they may enjoy. Yet, there are government-fixed maximum and minimum prices for domestic flights.
 
 
63

 
 
Registration of Aircraft. Aircraft registration in Argentina is governed by the Argentinean Aeronautical Code (“AAC”). In order to register or continue to be registered in Argentina, an aircraft must be wholly owned by either:
 
 
·
a natural person who is an Argentinean citizen; or
 
 
·
a legal entity incorporated in and having its domicile and principal place of business in Argentina and a majority of the capital stock of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by Argentinean nationals, among other requirements established in the AAC.
 
Safety. ANACI requires that all aircraft operated by Argentinean airlines be registered with ANACI. All aircraft must have a valid certificate of airworthiness issued by ANACI. In addition, ANACI will not issue maintenance permits to an Argentinean airline until ANACI has assessed the airline’s maintenance capabilities. ANACI renews maintenance permits periodically and approves maintenance operations once the airline initiates its operations and each time an airline changes its maintenance regime. Only ANACI-certified maintenance facilities (in Argentina or in any other country) may maintain and repair the aircraft operated by Argentinean airlines. Aircraft maintenance personnel at such facilities must also be certified by ANACI before assuming any aircraft maintenance positions.
 
Security. ANACI establishes and supervises the implementation of security standards and regulations for the Argentinean commercial aviation industry. Such standards and regulations are based on standards developed by international commercial aviation organizations. Each airline and airport in Argentina must submit an aviation security handbook to ANACI describing its security procedures for the day-to-day operations of commercial aviation and procedures for staff security training. Lan Argentina has submitted its aviation security handbook to ANACI. Argentinean airlines that operate international routes must also adopt security measures in accordance with the requirements of applicable bilateral international agreements.
 
Airport Policy. The ORSNA (Organismo Regulador del Sistema Nacional de Aeropuertos) supervises and manages the airports in Argentina, including the supervision of take-off and landing charges. The ORSNA proposes airport charges, which are approved by ANACI and are the same at all airports. Nevertheless, while domestic flights are charged in local currency, international flights are charged in U.S. dollars. Since the late-90s, a number of Argentinean airports have been privatized, including Aeroparque and Aeropuerto Internacional de Ezeiza Ministro Pistarini in Buenos Aires, the two most important airports in Argentina. At the privatized airports, the airport administration manages the facilities under the supervision of ANACI and ORSNA.
 
Environmental and Noise Regulation. There are no material environmental regulations or controls imposed upon airlines, applicable to aircraft, or that otherwise affect us in Argentina, except for environmental laws and regulations of general applicability and noise restriction regulation currently applicable to aircraft in Argentina. Any aircraft operated by an Argentinean airline should comply with certain noise restrictions, specifically with Stage 3 standards, as set forth in chapter 91.805 of the Argentinean civilian aviation regulations (Regulaciones Argentinas de Aviación Civil) referred to in the market as Stage 3 standards. LAN’s fleet already complies with the proposed restrictions so we do not believe that enactment of the proposed standards would impose a material burden on us.
 
 
64

 
 
Peru
 
Aeronautical Regulation.
 
The Peruvian DGAC (“PDGAC”) oversees and regulates the Peruvian aviation industry. The PDGAC reports directly to the Ministry of Transportation and Communications and is responsible for supervising compliance with Peruvian laws and regulations relating to air navigation. In addition,  the PDGAC regulates the assignment of national and international routes, and the compliance with certain insurance requirements, and  it regulates flight operations, including personnel, aircraft and security standards, air traffic control and airport management. We have obtained and maintain the necessary authorizations from the Peruvian government to conduct flight operations, including authorization and technical operative certificates, the continuation of which is subject to the ongoing compliance with applicable statutes, rules and regulations pertaining to the airline industry, including any rules and regulations that may be adopted in the future.
 
Peru is a contracting state and a permanent member of the ICAO. The ICAO establishes technical standards for the international aviation industry, which Peruvian authorities have incorporated into Peruvian laws and regulations. In the absence of an applicable Peruvian regulation concerning safety or maintenance, the PDGAC has incorporated by reference the majority of the ICAO’s technical standards. We believe that we are in material compliance with all relevant technical standards.
 
Route Rights
 
Domestic Routes. Peruvian airlines are required to obtain permits in connection with carrying passengers or cargo on any domestic routes, but only to comply with the technical requirements established by the PDGAC. Non-Peruvian airlines are not permitted to provide domestic air service between destinations in Peru.
 
International Routes. As an airline providing services on international routes, Lan Peru is also subject to a variety of bilateral civil air transport agreements that provide for the exchange of air traffic rights between Peru and various other countries. There can be no assurance that existing bilateral agreements between Peru and foreign governments will continue, and a modification, suspension or revocation of one or more bilateral treaties could have a material adverse effect on our operations and financial results.
 
International route rights, as well as the corresponding landing rights, are derived from a variety of air transport agreements negotiated between Peru and foreign governments. Under such agreements, the government of one country grants the government of another country the right to designate one or more of its domestic airlines to operate scheduled services to certain destinations of the former and, in certain cases, to further connect to third-country destinations. In Peru, when additional route frequencies to and from foreign cities become available, any eligible airline may apply to obtain them. If there is more than one applicant for a route frequency the PDGAC awards it through a public auction for a period of four years. The PDGAC grants route frequencies subject to the condition that the recipient airline operate them on a permanent basis. If an airline fails to operate a route for a period of 90 days or more, the PDGAC may terminate its rights to that route, although that has never happened.
 
Airfare Pricing Policy. Peruvian airlines are permitted to establish their own domestic and international fares without government regulation, as long as they do not abuse any dominant market position they may enjoy. For more information, see “Antitrust Regulation” below. Airlines may file complaints before the Institute for Protection of Fair Competition and Consumer Rights (“Indecopi”) with respect to monopolistic or other pricing practices by other airlines that violate Peru’s antitrust laws.
 
Registration of Aircraft. Aircraft registration in Peru is governed by the Peruvian Civil Aviation Law. In order to register or continue to be registered in Peru, an aircraft must be wholly owned by either:
 
 
·
a natural person who is a Peruvian citizen; or is domiciled in Peru; or
 
 
·
a legal entity incorporated in and having its domicile and principal place of business in Peru and a majority of the capital stock of which is owned by Peruvian nationals, among other requirements established in article 47 of the  Peruvian Civil Aviation Law.
 
The Civil Aviation Law expressly allows the PDGAC to permit registration of aircraft belonging to non-Peruvian individuals or entities with a permanent place of business in Peru. Aircraft owned by non-Peruvians, but operated by a Peruvian airline, may also be registered in Peru but only if the aircraft is used for general, not commercial aviation.  Registration of any aircraft can be cancelled if it is not in compliance with the requirements for registration and, in particular, if:
 
 
65

 
 
 
·
the ownership requirements are not met; or
 
 
·
the aircraft does not comply with any applicable safety requirements specified by the PDGAC.
 
Safety. Peruvian law allows the use of aircraft that are registered either with the PDGAC or with an equivalent supervisory body in a country other than Peru. All aircraft must have a valid certificate of airworthiness issued by either the PDGAC or an equivalent non-Peruvian supervisory entity. In addition, the PDGAC will not issue maintenance permits to a Peruvian airline until the PDGAC has assessed the airline’s maintenance capabilities. The PDGAC renews maintenance permits annually, and has approved our maintenance operations. Only PDGAC-certified maintenance facilities or facilities certified by an equivalent non-Peruvian supervisory body in the country where the aircraft is registered may maintain and repair the aircraft operated by Peruvian airlines. Aircraft maintenance personnel at such facilities must also be certified either by the PDGAC or an equivalent non-Peruvian supervisory body before be appointed to any aircraft maintenance positions.
 
Security. The PDGAC establishes and supervises the implementation of security standards and regulations for the Peruvian commercial aviation industry. Such standards and regulations are based on standards developed by international commercial aviation organizations. Each airline and airport in Peru must submit an aviation security handbook to the PDGAC describing its security procedures for the day-to-day operations of commercial aviation and procedures for staff security training. Lan Peru has submitted its aviation security handbook to the PDGAC. Peruvian airlines that operate international routes must also adopt security measures in accordance with the requirements of applicable bilateral international agreements.
 
Airport Policy. CORPAC supervises and manages airports in Peru, including the supervision of take-off and landing charges. CORPAC sets airport charges for navigation facilities, which may differ  from airport to airport. Since the mid-90s, a number of Peruvian airports have been privatized, including the Aeropuerto Internacional Jorge Chávez in Lima. At the privatized airports, the airport administration manages the facilities under the supervision of the Organismo Supervisor de la Inversión en Infraestructura de Transporte de Uso Público, (the Supervising Agency of Investment in Public Transport Infrastructure Facilities or “OSITRAN”), an independent regulatory and supervising entity.
 
Environmental and Noise Regulation. There are no material environmental regulations or controls imposed upon airlines, applicable to aircraft, or that otherwise affect us in Peru, except for environmental laws and regulations of general applicability, but there are noise restriction regulations currently applicable to aircraft in Peru. LAN’s fleet complies with the proposed restrictions so they do not impose a material burden on us.
 
Ecuador
 
Aeronautical Regulation.
 
There are two institutions that control commercial aviation on behalf of the State:  (i) The National Civil Aviation Board (“CNAC”), which directs aviation policy; and (ii) the General Civil Aviation Bureau (“EDGAC”), which is a technical regulatory and control agency. The CNAC issues operating permits and grants operating concessions to national and international airlines.  It also issues opinions on bilateral and multilateral air transportation treaties, allocates routes and traffic rights, and approves joint operating agreements such as wet leases and shared codes.
 
Fundamentally, the EDGAC is responsible for:
 
 
·
ensuring that the national standards and technical regulations and international ICAO standards and regulations are observed;
 
·
keeping records on insurance, airworthiness and licenses of Ecuadorian civil aircraft;
 
·
maintaining the National Aircraft Registry;
 
·
issuing licenses to crews; and
 
·
controlling air traffic control inside domestic air space.
 
 
66

 
 
The EDGAC also must comply with the standards and recommended methods of the ICAO since Ecuador is a signatory of the 1944 Chicago Convention.
 
Route Rights
 
Domestic Routes. Airlines must obtain authorization from CNAC (an operating permit or concession) to provide air transportation. For domestic operations, only companies incorporated in Ecuador can operate locally, and only Ecuadorian-licensed aircraft and dry leases are authorized to operate domestically.
 
International Routes. Permits for international operations are based on air transportation treaties signed by Ecuador or, otherwise, the principle of reciprocity is applied. All airlines doing business in Latin America that are incorporated in countries that are members of the Comunidad Andina de Naciones (the Andean Community, or “CAN”) obtain their traffic rights on the basis of decisions currently in force under that regime, in particular decision N°582 of 2004, which guarantee free access to markets, with no type of restriction except technical considerations.
 
Shared codes are allowed in Ecuador after authorization by the CNAC, but the respective airlines must have the relevant traffic rights.
 
Airfare Pricing Policy. There is no law in Ecuador regulating competition, although currently there is one under discussion. So far, the government has enacted a decision of the CAN that is being applied by the Undersecretary of Competition. This Department can impose sanctions and penalties if it is proven that a certain fare is predatory, i.e., when the fare is below cost. Rates are not regulated and are subject only to registration. In general, bilateral treaties regarding air transportation provide for airfares to be regulated by the regulation of the country of origin.
 
Registration of Aircraft. The legislation allows Ecuadorian companies to provide international air transportation services using aircraft licensed in Ecuador and aircraft with a foreign license, always provided the latter are exploited under dry leases. For domestic operations, aircraft is authorized only pursuant to dry leases and Ecuadorian registration. Aircraft interchange agreements are also allowed for international operations, provided that the aviation authority can confirm that the aircraft is under the operational control of an Ecuadorian operator. Wet leases are permitted, but very restricted.
 
Safety. In order to ensure aviation safety, the EDGAC requires that the airline hold an Air Operator Certificate and have Operating Specifications that are examined technically and rigorously to ensure compliance with the Civil Aviation Technical Regulations, which are essentially the same as the Federal Aviation Regulations (“FAR”) of the FAA. They cover matters of aircraft airworthiness, certification of maintenance facilities, and oversight by the EDGAC.
 
Security. The governing rules also apply to security in respect of the EDGAC. There are regulations, manuals and procedures on airport security overseen by the EDGAC.
 
Airport Policy. The international airports in Quito and Guayaquil are managed under administrative concessions, and the EDGAC merely controls air traffic. Fees for the use of airport facilities, terminal fees, landing fees, parking fees are all overseen and collected by the operator. Over-flight and approach fees are controlled and collected by the EDGAC.
 
Environmental and Noise Regulation. Aircraft must comply with the standards of category 3 under Ecuadorian applicable noise regulations, as set forth in Executive Decree (Decreto Ejecutivo) 1,405, enacted on October 24,2008, which provides certain technical specific criteria. Beginning in May 2010, aircraft must comply with standards of category 4 under cited regulation. Category 3 provides for compliance with ICAO regulations and technical conditions mandatory in the United States of America.
 
United States of America
 
Aeronautical Regulation.
 
Operations to and from the United States by non-U.S. airlines, such as Lan Airlines, are subject to Title 49 of the U.S. Code, under which the Department of Transportation (“DOT”) and the FAA exercise regulatory authority. The DOT has jurisdiction over international aviation in connection with the United States, subject to review by the President of the United States. The DOT also has jurisdiction with respect to unfair practices and methods of competition by airlines and related consumer protection matters. The U.S. DOJ also has jurisdiction over airline competition matters under the federal antitrust laws. Flight operations between Chile and the United States by airlines licensed by either country are governed generally by the open skies air transport agreement that Chile and the United States signed in October 1997. Under the open skies agreement, there are no restrictions on the number of destinations or flights that either a U.S. or a Chilean airline may operate between the two countries or on the number of U.S. and Chilean airlines that may operate.

Authorizations and Licenses.
 
Lan Airlines is authorized by the DOT to engage in scheduled and charter air transportation services, including the transportation of persons, property (cargo) and mail, or combinations thereof, between points in Chile and points in the United States and beyond (via intermediate points in other countries). Lan Airlines holds the necessary authorizations from the DOT in the form of a foreign air carrier permit, exemption authorizations and statements of authorization to conduct current operations to and from the United States. Exemptions and statements of authorization are temporary in nature and are subject to renewal and therefore there can be no assurance that any particular exemption or statement of authorization will be renewed. Lan Airlines’ foreign air carrier permit has no expiration date, while a renewal of the exemption authorization (which includes the open skies traffic rights) was timely filed and the Authority was automatically extended until such time as the DOT issues the renewal order. Lan Airlines intends to request the inclusion of the open skies rights into our foreign air carrier permit, which would eliminate our need to renew the exemption authority in the future.
 
The FAA is engaged in the regulation with respect to safety matters, including aircraft maintenance and operations, equipment, aircraft noise, ground facilities, dispatch, communications, personnel, training, weather observation and other matters affecting air safety. The FAA requires each foreign air carrier to obtain certain operations specifications that authorize it to operate to particular airports on approved international routes using specified equipment. Lan Airlines currently holds FAA operations specifications under Part 129 of the FAR in compliance in all material respects with all requirements necessary to maintain in good standing of its operations specifications issued by the FAA. The FAA can amend, suspend, revoke or terminate those specifications, or can suspend temporarily or revoke permanently our authority if an airline fails to comply with the regulations, and can assess civil penalties for such failure. A modification, suspension or revocation of any of our DOT authorizations or FAA operations specifications could have a material adverse effect on our business.
 
The FAA also conducts safety audits and has the power to impose fines and other sanctions for violations of airline safety regulations. We have not incurred any material fines related to operations.
 
Certain Regulatory Authorizations in Connection with Strategic Alliances.
 
The alliance between Lan Airlines and American Airlines includes three major components: a frequent flyer agreement, a reciprocal code-share agreement and the coordination of pricing, scheduling and other functions. The last two of these items required the approval of regulatory authorities in both Chile and the United States. With respect to the code-share agreement, the open skies agreement between Chile and the United States expressly permits code-sharing operations by U.S. and Chilean airlines. With regard to the coordination of pricing and scheduling, Lan Airlines and American Airlines filed a joint application with the DOT in December 1997, requesting approval of their alliance agreement and immunity from the application of all U.S. antitrust laws pursuant to Title 49 of the U.S. Code. Lan Airlines and American Airlines received approval and antitrust immunity from the DOT in September 1999, and implemented the code-share agreement in October 1999. In accordance with the terms of the DOT’s 1999 approval, Lan Airlines and American Airlines were required to resubmit their alliance agreement to the DOT for review within three years after the DOT’s grant of approval. Lan Airlines and American Airlines resubmitted the agreement in September 2002 and did not receive any comments from the DOT.
 
Lan Peru was granted antitrust immunity by the DOT on October 13, 2005 with respect to the alliance agreements and other agreements incorporated therein (i.e., the reciprocal code-share agreements, among others) with Lan Airlines and American Airlines. In accordance with the terms of the DOT’s 2005 approval, Lan Airlines, Lan Peru and American Airlines resubmitted their alliance agreement to the DOT for review in October 2010.

Flight operations between Argentina and the United States by airlines licensed by either country are governed generally by the air transport agreement that Argentina and the United States signed in 1986, as amended, including the Memorandum of Consultation dated March 22, 2007.  Lan Argentina is authorized by the DOT to engage in scheduled air transportation of persons, property and mail, between any point or points in Argentina and Miami, Florida, (via the intermediate point of Punta Cana, Dominican Republic).  Lan Argentina holds the necessary authorizations from the DOT in the form of exemption authorizations and statements of authorization to conduct current operations to and from the United States. Lan Argentina also holds the necessary DOT authorizations regarding code share with American Airlines, which have been granted indefinitely, subject to applicable conditions and all other required authorizations remaining in place for both air carriers.
 
Security. On November 19, 2001, the Congress of the United States passed, and the President signed into law, the Aviation and Transportation Security Act, also referred to as the Aviation Security Act. This law federalized substantially all aspects of civil aviation security and created the Transportation Security Administration (“TSA”), which took over security responsibilities previously held by the FAA. The TSA is an agency of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The Aviation Security Act requires, among other things, the implementation of certain security measures by airlines and airports, such as the requirement that all passenger bags be screened for explosives. Funding for airline and airport security required under the Aviation Security Act is provided in part by a US$2.50 per segment passenger security fee, subject to a US$10 per roundtrip cap; however, airlines are responsible for costs in excess of this fee. Implementation of the requirements of the Aviation Security Act has resulted in increased costs for airlines and their passengers. Since the events of September 11, 2001, Congress has mandated and the TSA has implemented numerous security procedures and requirements that have imposed and will continue to impose burdens on airlines, passengers and shippers.
 
Noise Restrictions. Under the Airport Noise and Capacity Act of 1990 (“ANCA”), and related FAA regulations, aircraft that fly to the United States must comply with certain Stage 3 noise restrictions, which are currently the most stringent FAA noise requirements. All of our aircraft that fly to the United States meet the Stage 3 requirements.
 
Under the direction of the ICAO, governments are considering the creation of a new and more stringent noise standard than that contained in the ANCA. The ICAO adopted new noise standards in 2001 that established more stringent noise requirements for aircraft manufactured after January 1, 2006. In the U.S., legislation known as the “Vision 100—Century of Aviation Reauthorization Act,” which was signed into law in December 2003, required the FAA to issue regulations implementing Stage 4 noise standards consistent with recommendations adopted by the ICAO. FAA regulations require all aircraft designed and certified after January 1, 2006 to comply with Stage 4 noise restrictions.
 
FAA regulations also require compliance with the Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System, approved airborne wind shear warning system and aging aircraft regulations. Our entire fleet meets these requirements.
 
Brazil
 
Aeronautical Regulation.
 
The Brazilian aviation industry is regulated and overseen by the ANAC. The ANAC reports directly to the Brazilian Defense Ministry, which is subordinated by the Federal Executive Power of this country. Primarily on the basis of Law No. 11.182/2005, ANAC was created to regulate commercial aviation, air navigation, the assignment of domestic and international routes,  compliance with certain insurance requirements, flight operations, including personnel, aircraft and security standards, air traffic control, in this case sharing it activities and responsibilities with the Departamento de Controle do Espaço Aéreo (Department of Airspace Control, or “DECEA”), which is a public secretary also subordinated by the  Brazilian Defense Ministry, and airport management, in this last case sharing responsibilities with the Empresa Brasileira de Infra-Estrutura Aeroportuária (the Brazilian Airport Infrastructure Company, or “INFRAERO”), a public company that was created by Law No. 5862/72, and is responsible for administrating, operating and exploring Brazilian airports  industrially  and commercially.
 
 
69

 
 
We have obtained and maintain the necessary authority from the Brazilian government to conduct flight operations, including authorization and technical operative certificates from ANAC, the continuation of which is subject to ongoing compliance with applicable statutes, rules and regulations pertaining to the airline industry, including any rules and regulations that may be adopted in the future.
 
ANAC is the Brazilian civil aviation authority and it is responsible for supervising compliance with Brazilian laws and regulations relating to air navigation. Brazil is a contracting state and a permanent member of the ICAO. The ICAO establishes technical standards for the international aviation industry, which Brazilian authorities, represented by the Brazilian Defense Ministry, have incorporated into Brazilian laws and regulations. In the absence of an applicable Brazilian regulation concerning safety or maintenance, ANAC has incorporated by reference the majority of the ICAO’s technical standards.
 
Route Rights.
 
Domestic Routes. Brazilian airlines are not required to obtain permits in connection with domestic passenger or cargo transportation, but only to comply with the technical requirements established by ANAC. Based on the Brazilian Aeronautical Code (“CBA”) established by Law No. 7.565/86, non-Brazilian airlines are not permitted to provide domestic air service between destinations in Brazil. The same law prevents a foreign airline from creating a Brazilian subsidiary and entering the Brazilian domestic market using that subsidiary.
 
International Routes. Brazilian and non-Brazilian airlines providing services on international routes are also subject to a variety of bilateral civil air transport agreements that provide for the exchange of air traffic rights between Brazil and various other countries. International route rights, as well as the corresponding landing rights, are derived from a variety of air transport agreements negotiated between Brazil and foreign governments. Under such agreements, the government of one country grants the government of another country the right to designate one or more of its domestic airlines to operate scheduled services to certain destinations of the former and, in certain cases, to further connect to third-country destinations. In Brazil, when additional route frequencies to and from foreign cities become available, any eligible airline may apply to obtain them. If there is more than one applicant for a route frequency ANAC must carry out a public bid and award it to the elected airline. ANAC grants route frequencies subject to the condition that the recipient airline operate them on a permanent basis. If an airline fails to operate a route for a period of six months or more, ANAC may terminate its rights to that route. ANAC may also terminate its right if the recipient airline does not operate at least 80% of the frequency given for that specific route.
 
Airfare Pricing Policy. Brazilian and non-Brazilian airlines are permitted to establish their own international and domestic fares, in this last case only for Brazilian airlines, without government regulation, as long as they do not abuse any dominant market position they may enjoy. Airlines may file complaints before the Antitrust Court with respect to monopolistic or other pricing practices by other airlines that violate Brazil’s antitrust laws.
 
Registration of Aircraft. Aircraft registration in Brazil is managed by ANAC, which maintains the Brazilian Aeronautical Register, as regulated by the CBA. The CBA allows ANAC to permit registration of aircraft belonging to Brazilian and non-Brazilian individuals.
 
Safety. ANAC requires that all Brazilian aircraft must have a valid certificate of airworthiness issued by ANAC. In addition, ANAC will not issue maintenance permits to a Brazilian airline until it has assessed the airline’s maintenance capabilities. ANAC renews maintenance permits annually, and has approved our maintenance operations. Only ANAC certifies aircraft maintenance services and its personnel.
 
 Security. ANAC establishes and supervises the implementation of security standards and regulations for the Brazilian commercial aviation industry. Such standards and regulations are based on standards developed by international commercial aviation organizations. Each airline and airport in Brazil must submit an aviation security handbook to ANAC describing its security procedures for the day-to-day operations of commercial aviation and procedures for staff security training.
 
Brazilian Airport Policy. INFRAERO supervises and manages airports in Brazil, including the supervision of take-off and landing charges. INFRAERO proposes airport charges, which are approved by ANAC and are the same at all airports. At privatized airports, the airport administration manages the facilities under the supervision of ANAC.
 
 
70

 
 
Environmental and Noise Regulation. ANAC coordinates and supervises noise regulations by regulation 121, which established noise restriction applicable to aircraft in Brazil. There are no material environmental regulations or controls imposed specifically upon airlines companies, applicable to aircraft, other than Brazilian general environmental laws and regulations.
 
Colombia
 
Aeronautical Regulation.
 
The governmental entity in charge of regulating, directing and supervising the civil aviation is the Aeronáutica Civil (“AC”), a technical agency ascribed to the Ministry of Transportation. The AC is the aeronautical authority for the entire domestic territory, in charge of regulating and supervising the Colombian air space. The AC may interpret, apply and complement all civil aviation and air transportation regulation to ensure compliance with the Colombian Aeronautical Regulations (“RAC”). The AC also grants the necessary permits for air transportation.
 
Route Rights.
 
The AC grants operation permits to domestic and foreign carrier that intend to operate in, from and to Colombia. In the case of Colombian airlines in order to obtain the operational permit the company must comply with the RAC and fulfill legal, economic and technical requirements, to later be subject to public hearings where the public convenience and necessity of the service is considered. The same process must be followed to add national or international routes, whose concession is subject to the bilateral instruments entered into by Colombia. Routes cannot be transferred under any circumstance and there is no limit to foreign investment in domestic airlines.
 
Airfare Pricing Policy. Domestic and international cargo transportation fares are not restricted in Colombia, but are subject to market regulations.  In addition, there is a fuel surcharge that is regulated by the AC and that fluctuates in accordance with the cost of fuel.  This surcharge, which is regulated by the authority, is not mandatory for cargo and it can be applied without exceeding the regulated maximum.
 
Registration of Aircraft. The AC, through the Office of Aeronautical Registration, is in charge of handling the registration of aircraft that will be operated by Colombian airlines. Registration may be obtained by a registration process fully conducted in Colombia or through the validation in Colombia of a foreign registration. For such registration, the aircraft must be legally imported to the country and inspected by the aeronautical inspectors. This office is also in charge of property registrations, lease contracts and liens of the registered aircraft.
 
Safety. Aircraft registered in Colombia obtain an airworthiness certificate or a validation of the airworthiness certificate (if they operate under the approval of the foreign registration).
 
 Security. Following the guidelines of the OACI annexes, the AC issued an airport security program that must be strictly complied with by all the aircraft operators in the country as well as by airports.
 
Environmental and Noise Regulation. In Colombia, only aircraft that comply with category 3 noise limits may operate.  There are strict regulations to control noise during takeoffs and landings of the aircraft at the El Dorado Airport in Bogotá due to its location in an urban area.
 
Antitrust Regulation
 
The Chilean antitrust authority, which we refer to as the Antitrust Court (previously the Antitrust Commission), oversees antitrust matters, which are governed by Decree Law No. 211 of 1973, as amended, or the Antitrust Law. The Antitrust Law prohibits any entity from preventing, restricting or distorting competition in any market or any part of any market. The Antitrust Law also prohibits any business or businesses that have a dominant position in any market or a substantial part of any market from abusing that dominant position. An aggrieved person may sue for damages arising from a breach of Antitrust Law and/or file a complaint with the Antitrust Court requesting an order to enjoin the violation of the Antitrust Law. The Antitrust Court has the authority to impose a variety of sanctions for violations of the Antitrust Law, including termination of contracts contrary to the Antitrust Law, dissolution of a company and imposition of fines and daily penalties on businesses. Courts may award damages and other remedies (such as an injunction) in appropriate circumstances. Lan Airlines, Lan Express and Lan Cargo must comply with Chilean Antitrust Law that prohibits a carrier from abusing a dominant position in the market. As described above under “Route Rights—Air Fare Pricing Policy,” in October 1997, the Antitrust Court approved a specific self-regulatory fare plan for us consistent with the Antitrust Court’s directive to maintain a competitive environment within the domestic market.
 
 
71

 
 
Since October 1997, Lan Airlines and Lan Express follow a self-regulatory plan, which was modified and approved by the Tribunal de la Libre Competencia (the Competition Court) in July 2005. In February 2010, the Fiscalía Nacional Economica (the National Economic Prosecutor’s Office) finalized the investigation initiated in 2007 regarding our compliance with this self-regulatory plan and no further observations were made.
 
For more recent information regarding regulatory proceedings see “Other Financial Information—Legal and Arbitration Proceedings” under Item 8.
 
Property
 
Headquarters
 
Our main facilities are located on approximately five acres of land near the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport. The complex includes approximately 150,695 square feet of office space, 32,292 square feet of conference space and training facilities, 9,688 square feet of dining facilities and mock-up cabins used for crew instruction. In 2004, we adapted part of this building to meet our expanding training needs. This process included developing new rooms for technical instruction, in-flight and airport services.
 
During the fourth quarter of 2003, we moved some of our executive offices into a new building in a more central location in Santiago, Chile, where we initially occupied a total of four floors. In the first half of 2005 we added three more floors to accommodate our growth requirements. In 2007, in order to accommodate the Company’s growth, LAN leased two floors in an adjacent building (totaling 1,700 square meters), where some of LAN staff moved in February 2008. In 2009, to respond to the Company’s growth, LAN leased two additional floors in this building (totaling 1,200 square meters).  In 2010, new offices were leased east of Santiago to allow for Company growth and to implement projects such as “Host,” which involves changing our system of reservations, sales, inventory and passenger check-in. These additional offices add a total of 1,850 square meters to LAN’s property.
 
In addition, during 2011 we expect to add a new floor of 1,100 square meters to the Arrau Building for the new facilities of LAN Cargo.
 
Maintenance Base
 
Our 877,258 square feet maintenance base is located on a site that we own inside the grounds of the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport. This facility contains our aircraft hangar, warehouses, workshops and offices, as well as a 559,720 square feet aircraft parking area capable of accommodating up to seventeen short-haul aircraft. We have a five-floor, 53,820 square feet office building plus a 10,000 square feet office and workshop space. This facility is certified by several civil aviation authorities, including the United States’ FAA. As such, we are permitted to perform maintenance work for third parties at the facility. The FAA periodically inspects the facility to ensure its compliance with FAA standards. In 2005, we finalized the construction of an additional hangar, as well as 75,000 square feet of aircraft parking space, for US$2.1 million. During 2006 we started a new investment plan at this facility that includes building 64,580 square feet of additional aircraft parking space, a new 15,340 square foot building for offices and maintenance shops, a new 16,680 square feet engine shop and storage facility, and additional warehousing and external work space. The plan also included the upgrade of some of the current facilities, increasing parking space and building a new access road. Further, in 2006 we completed construction of an engine workshop with eight workstations and capacity for 36 engines, for a total investment of US$820,000. We also lease from the DGAC 193,750 square feet of space inside the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport for operational and service purposes.
 
In 2007, LAN approved a two-year capital expenditures plan earmarking approximately US$7.0 million for preparing our buildings and plants for the future growth of the Company and of its fleet.
 
 
72

 
 
During 2008, LAN finalized the construction of a 4,300 square feet warehouse especially designed for the storage of oil and flammable supplies, which complies with all the security standards required for its operation. We also upgraded some facilities such as bathrooms and dressing rooms in our maintenance base increasing the total area in 15,000 square feet.
 
During 2009, LAN finalized the construction of a new five-story building located in our maintenance base, which has a total surface of 49,500 square feet and represented an investment of US$5.8 million. This building has new workshops, a new food court with capacity for over 2,500 people in different shifts, two floors of new offices and meeting rooms.
 
Also, during 2009, LAN finalized the extension of the engine workshop, which added 900 square feet and represented an investment of US$0.5 million. This extension will be used mainly for the Boeing 777’s engine maintenance.
 
During 2010 LAN remodelled portions of the administrative offices in the Mario Bontempi Building and the Luis Ernesto Videla Buildings (“LEV Building”), which are located within the Company’s maintenance base inside the ground of the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benitez International Airport.  Currently we are working in adding a fifth floor to the LEV Building, which is expected to be finalized on May 2011.
 
Miami Facilities
 
We occupy a 36.3-acre site at the Miami International Airport that has been leased to us by the airport under a concession agreement. Our facilities include a 48,000 square foot corporate building, a 380,000 square foot cargo warehouse and a 783,000 square foot aircraft-parking platform, which were constructed and are now leased to us under a long-term contract by a North American developer. We began using these new facilities in September 2001 for our passenger and cargo offices (with the exception of our reservations and ticket offices). We converted 21,528 square feet of the warehouse into fully furbished offices during 2004.
 
During 2009, LAN began the extension of the cooling area in the cargo warehouse. This extension added 30,000 square feet and represented an investment of US$4.0 million. This extension was inaugurated on April 20, 2010.
 
During 2010, LAN signed a concession agreement with the Miami International Airport to add a new cargo warehouse for additional areas for future developments.
 
Other Facilities
 
We own a building and sixteen acres of land on the west side of the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport that houses a flight-training center. As of March 2007, this facility features three full-flight simulators for Boeing 767, Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 aircraft. We rent this flight-training center under a long-term lease to CAE Inc. (a leading Canadian company in the flight training business).  These full-flight simulators are being extended and are expected to be completed in the second semester of 2011.
 
We own a 661,980-square foot warehouse in Santiago, which includes 91,493 square feet of space for offices and other administrative facilities and 45,000 square foot distribution center. We use this facility to support Blue Express door-to-door cargo transport business.
 
In 2004, Fast Air Almacenes de Carga S.A. (“Fast Air”), one of our subsidiaries that operates import customs warehouses, began utilizing an import warehouse and office building at the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport. This 172,000 square foot building was developed in conjunction with two other operators.
 
We have also developed a recreational facility for our employees with Airbus’ support. The facility, denominated “Parque LAN,” is located near the Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport. Parque LAN includes amenities such as a gymnasium, synthetic fields for multiple uses and swimming pools.
 
During 2008, we acquired a 43,000 square feet piece of land in Chile, which represented a US$12 million investment, for the purpose of constructing our new corporate building.
 
During 2008, we acquired a 161,000 square feet piece of land near the Lima airport, which will host new facilities for the Company.
 
 
73

 
 
We are currently working on the design and estimate that the construction will start during the first semester of 2011.
 
In March 2009, we began the construction of a new maintenance base in Argentina. The project includes a new hangar of 26,900 square feet with 9,600 square feet of offices, 1,070 square feet of workshops and an exterior platform of 5,300 square feet.  This project comprised a US$3.2 million investment and was completed in 2009.

LAN Shareholder Meeting
 
Prior to the LAN shareholders meeting, our board of directors will recommend that our shareholders vote to approve the mergers, changing our name to “LATAM Airlines Group S.A.” (which we refer to as the “name change”) and the other transactions contemplated by the implementation agreement (which we refer to as the “LAN board merger recommendation”).  We are required to take all action necessary to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting (which we refer to as the “LAN shareholders meeting”) of our shareholders for the purpose of voting to approve the mergers, the name change and the other transactions contemplated by the implementation agreement (which we refer to collectively as, the “LAN shareholder merger matters”), (ii) cause such vote to be taken and completed and (iii) include the LAN board recommendations in the materials distributed to our shareholders connection with the LAN shareholders meeting.  Under Chilean law and our by-laws, the mergers must be approved by the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of LAN common stock (which we refer to as the “requisite LAN shareholder approval”).  Approval of the LAN shareholder merger matters will be expressly conditioned upon, and will become effective only upon, the completion of the mergers.
 
TAM Shareholder Meeting
 
Prior to the TAM shareholders meeting, TAM will convene a meeting of the TAM board of directors to approve a list of three independent specialized companies experienced in valuing companies with similar size and operations to TAM (we refer to each such company as an “appraiser” and to such list as the “appraiser list”) to be submitted to holders of the free float shares at the TAM shareholders meeting.  TAM is required to take all action necessary to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its shareholders solely for the purpose of voting to select an appraiser from the appraiser list to prepare an appraisal report to determine the economic value of TAM and LAN (which we refer to as the “appraisal report”) in accordance with the terms of TAM’s by-laws and the rules of the Bovespa (which we refer to as the “TAM shareholders meeting”).  Under TAM’s by-laws and the rules of the Bovespa, the quorum for the first calling of the TAM shareholders meeting requires the presence in person or by proxy of holders of shares of TAM stock (other than the TAM controlling shareholder, the Amaro family, their respective affiliates and TAM and its subsidiaries) (which we refer to collectively as, the “free float shares”) representing at least 20% of the outstanding shares of TAM stock.  Under TAM’s by-laws and the rules of the Bovespa, any appraiser so selected must be approved by a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the free float shares present in person or by proxy at the TAM shareholders meeting at which the requisite quorum is present (we refer to this approval as the “requisite TAM shareholder approval”).
 
If a quorum is not present at the first calling of the TAM shareholders meeting, then TAM is required to call additional meetings of its shareholders solely for the same purpose until a quorum is established, and under TAM’s by-laws and the rules of the Bovespa the quorum for any such subsequently called meeting requires the presence in person or by proxy of any holder of at least one free float share.  If quorum is established at any TAM shareholders meeting and a vote of the holders of free float shares is taken but the requisite TAM shareholder approval is not obtained, then TAM is required to call additional meetings of its shareholders solely for the same purpose until the requisite TAM shareholder approval is obtained.  However, TAM is not required to call more than five shareholder meetings within a period of five months.

If after the appraiser prepares the appraisal report the holders of free float shares exercise their right under Brazilian law to request that TAM call a special meeting of the shareholders of TAM to vote upon whether or not to request a new appraisal report and to appoint a new appraiser, then TAM is required to take all action necessary to establish a record date for, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold such a special meeting of the TAM shareholders no later than 45 days after the request for such special meeting.
 
Prior to the commencement of the exchange offer, TAM is required to convene a special meeting of the TAM board of directors to recommend that the holders of shares of TAM stock tender and sell such shares in the exchange offer (which we refer to as the “TAM board exchange offer recommendation”), and promptly after such meeting TAM must publicly announce the TAM board exchange offer recommendation.

Actions on the Expiration Date; Completion of the Exchange Offer
 
The date on which the auction (leilão) established in the Edital will occur as specified in the Edital is referred to as the “expiration date”.
 
The transaction agreements describe the schedule of events on the expiration date as follows:
 
 
90

 

 
at 2:00 p.m., São Paulo time, on the expiration date, the Bovespa will inform LAN, Holdco 2 and the Amaro family whether or not the minimum conditions have been satisfied;
 
 
promptly after receiving that notice (but no later than 2:10 p.m., São Paulo time, on the expiration date), we will notify the Amaro family in writing as to whether all of the exchange offer conditions (other than the condition relating to the TEP Chile subscription) have been satisfied or irrevocably waived by us;
 
 
if we state in that notice that all exchange offer conditions are satisfied or waived by us, then promptly after receiving our notice (but no later than 2:20 p.m., São Paulo time, on the expiration date), the Amaro family will inform us in writing whether or not all of the exchange offer conditions and the subscription conditions have been satisfied or irrevocably waived by them, and if all such conditions have been satisfied or waived by them, then promptly after sending that notice (but no later than 2:30 p.m., São Paulo time, on the expiration date) the Amaro family will subscribe and pay for all shares of TEP Chile stock in exchange for all of the voting common shares of TAM and non-voting preferred shares of TAM held by them, which we refer to as the “TEP Chile subscription.” The transaction agreements require that, as a result of the TEP Chile subscription, each member of the Amaro family will have the same ownership in TEP Chile as he or she had in the TAM controlling shareholder;
 
 
prior to the date of this annual report on Form 20-F, TEP Chile subscribed for non-voting shares of Holdco 1 in exchange for all of the voting common shares of TAM to be contributed by the Amaro family to TEP Chile and subscribed for Sister Holdco shares in exchange for all of the non-voting shares of Holdco 1, 6.2% of the voting shares of Holdco 1 and all of the non-voting preferred shares of TAM to be contributed by the Amaro family to TEP Chile.  Immediately after subscription and payment of the TEP Chile subscription, TEP Chile will pay for the Holdco subscriptions by paying Holdco 1 with all of the voting common shares of TAM contributed by the Amaro family and pay Sister Holdco with all of the non-voting shares of Holdco 1, 6.2% of the voting shares of Holdco 1 and all of the non-voting preferred shares of TAM contributed by the Amaro family.  We refer to the subscriptions for shares of Holdco 1 and Sister Holdco as the “Holdco subscriptions” and the Holdco subscriptions and TEP Chile subscription collectively as the “subscriptions”;
 
 
promptly after payment of the subscriptions (but no later than 2:40 p.m., São Paulo time, on the expiration date), we and the Amaro family will issue a press release announcing that all of the exchange offer conditions have been satisfied or irrevocably waived; and
 
 
the auction will commence at 3:00 p.m., São Paulo time (or such other time as the Bovespa may determine), on the expiration date, and the Amaro family will cause Holdco 2 to complete the exchange offer on the expiration date by accepting for exchange and exchanging (with LAN shares issuable in the mergers) all TAM shares and TAM ADSs validly tendered into and not withdrawn from the exchange offer that Holdco 2 is obligated to purchase pursuant to the terms of the exchange offer. The completion of the exchange offer will be deemed to be the purchases of TAM shares and TAM ADSs pursuant to the auction, and such purchases will be settled on the third business day following the expiration date in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Bovespa.
 
However, if (x) either we or the Amaro family do not state that all of the conditions described above have been satisfied or irrevocably waived by us or (y) the TEP Chile subscription or any of the payments required pursuant to the subscriptions are not made in full when required by the transaction agreements, then the auction will not occur and the exchange offer will expire without the purchase of any TAM shares or TAM ADSs.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the auction commences at any time other than 3:00 p.m., São Paulo time, on the expiration date, then each of the times specified above (except for the last time that a withdrawal may be made) will be adjusted by the same amount that the actual time of the commencement of the Auction differs from 3:00 p.m., São Paulo time.
 
 
91

 

Extensions and Amendments
 
The exchange offer will initially expire on the date provided in the Edital.  However, if all of the exchange offer conditions are not satisfied at, or waived by the parties prior to, the scheduled expiration time for the exchange offer, then we or the Amaro family (if they are entitled to the benefit of the unsatisfied condition) may cause Holdco 2 to request permission from the CVM to extend the expiration time for the exchange offer in maximum increments of 30 days to no later than 28 days after the commencement date. If both we and the Amaro family agree to request a modification to the terms and conditions of the exchange offer or revocation of the exchange offer, the Amaro family is required to cause Holdco 2 to request permission from the CVM to modify the terms and conditions of the exchange offer or to revoke the exchange offer.  We and the Amaro family have agreed to cause Holdco 2 to request permission from the CVM to revoke the exchange offer if the transaction agreements terminate in accordance with their terms.
 
Post-Completion Board Meeting
 
We are required to convene a special meeting of our board of directors to approve the issuance of LAN common shares issuable pursuant to the mergers as soon as practicable, but not later than two business days following the completion of the exchange offer.
 
The Mergers; Directors and Officers; By-laws
 
Holdco 2 Merger
 
The implementation agreement provides for the merger of Holdco 2 with and into LAN after the completion of the exchange offer and prior to the settlement of the purchases made pursuant to the exchange offer.  As the surviving corporation, we will continue to exist following the Holdco 2 merger.  Pursuant to the Holdco 2 merger, each share of Holdco 2 stock (including those issuable pursuant to the settlement of the purchases made pursuant to the Auction) will be converted into a LAN common share at a ratio of 0.9 of a LAN common share per share of Holdco 2 stock (we refer to this ratio as the “Holdco 2 exchange ratio”).  Holders of TAM preferred shares (including those represented by TAM ADSs) will receive, by virtue of the Holdco 2 merger, LAN common shares in the following form in exchange for their TAM shares or TAM ADSs tendered and accepted for exchange in the exchange offer, depending on the form of TAM preferred shares tendered in the exchange offer:
 
 
holders of TAM ADSs that are tendered and accepted for exchange in the exchange offer will receive LAN ADRs issued pursuant to the deposit agreement, dated as of March 25, 2003, among LAN, the LAN depositary, and the record holders and beneficial owners of LAN ADRs from time to time;
 
 
holders of TAM shares registered under Resolution No. 2,689/00 of January 26, 2000 enacted by the CMN that are tendered and accepted for exchange in the exchange offer will receive LAN common shares in the form of LAN BDRs or LAN ADRs, as permitted by applicable law; and
 
 
holders of all other TAM shares tendered and accepted for exchange in the exchange offer will receive LAN common shares in the form of BDRs representing such shares to be issued pursuant to a deposit agreement in customary form among LAN, a depositary agent to be selected by LAN and reasonably acceptable to TAM and the holders of LAN BDRs from time to time.
 
We are required to pay or cause to be paid all deposit fees and other expenses payable in connection with the issuance of such LAN ADRs and LAN BDRs.
 
Immediately after the completion of the Holdco 2 merger, we will contribute any TAM common shares beneficially owned by Holdco 2 immediately prior to such merger to Holdco 1 in exchange for new non-voting shares of Holdco 1 on a one-for-one basis.  After this contribution, we will increase our ownership percentage of the outstanding voting shares of Holdco 1 by converting our non-voting shares of Holdco 1 into voting shares of Holdco 1 to (A) 100% minus (B) 80% divided by the percentage of the outstanding TAM common shares owned by Holdco 1 determined on a primary basis after giving effect to such contribution.
 
 
92

 

Voting shares of Holdco 1 have the exclusive right to vote on, approve or consent to all matters that are subject to any vote of or approval by the shareholders of Holdco 1 under the applicable law of Chile or otherwise (other than the limited voting rights of the non-voting shares of Holdco 1) and have no economic rights other than the right to receive a nominal dividend (we refer to these rights as the “dividend rights” ).  Non-voting shares of Holdco 1 have the exclusive right to receive all dividends, distributions or other amounts payable by Holdco 1 in respect of any shares of its capital stock other than the dividend rights and have no right to vote on or approve any matter that is subject to any vote of or approval by the shareholders of Holdco 1 under applicable law of Chile or otherwise other than the rights to vote on and approve the matters requiring the approval of the holders of such shares under the applicable law of Chile or otherwise.
 
Sister Holdco Mergers
 
The implementation agreement also provides for the merger of Sister Holdco with and into LAN after the completion of the exchange offer and prior to the settlement of the purchases made pursuant to the exchange offer. As the surviving corporation, LAN will continue to exist following the Sister Holdco merger. We refer to the time that the mergers become effective as the “effective time.”
 
Pursuant to the Sister Holdco merger, each share of Sister Holdco stock will be converted into 0.90 of a LAN common share at a ratio of 0.9 of a LAN common share per share of Sister Holdco stock (we refer to this ratio as the “Sister Holdco exchange ratio” ). We will pay or cause to be paid all deposit fees and other expenses payable in connection with the issuance of such LAN common shares.
 
By-Laws
 
The parties are required to take all necessary action so that immediately following the effective time the by-laws of Holdco 1, Sister Holdco and Holdco 2 shall be in the forms attached to the exchange offer agreement.
 
Directors
 
We and the controlling shareholder are required to discuss in good faith and agree upon the individuals who will be directors of LAN, Holdco 1, TAM and their subsidiaries as of the effective time and to take all necessary action to ensure that immediately following, and on the same day as, the effective time, the individuals selected for election to the board of directors of LAN, Holdco 1, TAM and their subsidiaries by each of us and TEP Chile pursuant to the Holdco 1 shareholders agreement, by each of us and TEP Chile pursuant to the TAM shareholders agreement and by each of the LAN controlling shareholders and TEP Chile pursuant to the control group shareholders agreement shall be the directors of LAN, Holdco 1, TAM and their subsidiaries.  For a discussion of the parties rights to elect the directors of LAN, Holdco 1, TAM and their subsidiaries, see the “Shareholders Agreements—Voting Agreements.”
 
Effects of the Mergers
 
Capital Increase
 
If and when our shareholders approve the mergers, the share capital of LAN will be increased by an aggregate amount equal to the sum of the share capital of Holdco 2 and the share capital of Sister Holdco at such time. We refer to this capital increase as the “initial capital increase.” After the completion of the mergers, the share capital of LAN will be increased by the amount by which the net asset value of the shares of TAM stock contributed pursuant to the subscriptions exceeds, or is decreased by the amount by which such net asset value is less than, the initial capital increase.
 
Treatment of Holdco 2 Stock
 
At the effective time, each share of Holdco 2 Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time will be converted into the right to receive a fraction of a validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable LAN common share at the Holdco 2 exchange ratio, less applicable withholding taxes.  Each share of Sister Holdco stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time will be converted into the right to receive a fraction of a validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable LAN common share at the Sister Holdco exchange ratio, less applicable withholding taxes.
 
 
93

 

TAM Options
 
TAM and the TAM board of directors, as applicable, were required prior to the commencement of the exchange offer to adopt any resolutions and take any actions necessary to ensure that (a) from and after the effective time each TAM stock option outstanding immediately prior to the effective time, whether vested or unvested, will be exercisable only when vested and only for an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the total number of shares of TAM stock in respect of which such TAM stock option is exercisable, and (ii) the amount (if any) by which (x) the product of the Holdco 2 exchange ratio and the closing price of the LAN common shares on the SSE on the last business day prior to the date on which such TAM stock option was exercised exceeds (y) the exercise price per share of TAM stock under such TAM stock option, less any applicable taxes required to be withheld with respect to such payment, and (b) none of execution, delivery or performance of the implementation agreement or the completion of the mergers or any other transactions contemplated by implementation agreement will, directly or indirectly, cause or result in any acceleration of the vesting of any TAM stock options, whether prior to, on or after the effective time.
 
Exchange Fund
 
Prior to the effective time, we will deposit or cause to be deposited with the US exchange agent, for the benefit of the holders of Holdco 2 stock and Sister Holdco stock, certificates or, at our option, evidence of shares in book-entry form, representing LAN common shares, including any cash to be paid in lieu of fractional LAN common shares, as discussed below in this section.  We refer to such certificates or evidence of book-entry form, as the case may be, for LAN common shares and such cash paid in lieu of fractional shares collectively as the “exchange fund.”  Any interest or income produced from investments of the exchange fund by the US exchange agent will not be deemed part of the exchange fund and will be payable to us.
 
Fractional Shares
 
No certificates or scrip representing fractional LAN common shares will be issued in the mergers or pursuant to the statutory squeeze-out and such fractional shares will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a shareholder of LAN. In lieu of fractional shares, we will pay each holder of a fractional LAN common share an amount in cash in US dollars equal to the product of (a) the fractional LAN common shares to which such holder would otherwise be entitled after taking into account all shares of Holdco 2 Stock or Sister Holdco stock owned of record by such holder immediately prior to the effective time, and (b) the closing price of the LAN common shares on the SSE on the last trading day immediately preceding the effective time (as reported in www.bolsadesantiago.com or, if not reported therein, by another authoritative source).
 
Statutory Squeeze-Out
 
After the completion of the exchange offer, if permitted under applicable Brazilian law, we (as the surviving corporation of the Holdco 2 merger) will effect a statutory squeeze-out of any holders of voting common shares of TAM and/or non-voting preferred shares of TAM (including those represented as TAM ADSs) other than those beneficially owned by the Amaro family that did not accept the exchange offer (we refer to these shares collectively as “non-tendered shares”).  In this statutory squeeze-out, the holders of non-tendered shares will have the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the product of (i) the number of LAN common shares that it would have received pursuant to the exchange offer in respect of its non-tendered shares (assuming it could have received fractional LAN common shares), and (ii) the closing price of the LAN common shares on the SSE on the day on which the exchange offer is completed.  After the squeeze-out of all remaining voting common shares of TAM, LAN will (i) contribute all voting ordinary shares of TAM acquired in the exchange offer to Holdco 1 in exchange for non-voting shares of Holdco 1, and (ii) increase its ownership percentage of the outstanding voting shares of Holdco 1 to 20% by converting its non-voting shares of Holdco 1 into voting shares of Holdco 1.

Each of the TAM controlling shareholder and TAM are required to use its or their commercially reasonable efforts to cause (i) the TAM preferred shares to be delisted from the Bovespa if the delisting condition is satisfied with respect to such class of TAM stock and (ii) the TAM ADSs to be delisted from the NYSE as soon as practicable after the effective time.
 
Termination
 
The transaction agreements will terminate automatically if and when (i) the exchange offer expires in accordance with its terms or is revoked with the permission of CVM without the purchase of any TAM stock or (ii) if the product of 0.9 and the high end of the range of economic value of LAN per share of LAN common stock as determined by the appraiser at any time is less than the low end of the range of economic value of TAM per share of TAM stock as determined by the appraiser at such time.  In addition, LAN and the Amaro family may terminate the transaction agreements by mutual written consent.

The transaction agreements may also be terminated and the exchange offer and the mergers may be abandoned at any time prior to the commencement of the exchange offer as follows, whether before or after receipt of any requisite shareholder approvals:
 
 
·
by either LAN or the Amaro family:
 
 
o
if the exchange offer has not commenced by December 31, 2011 (as it may be extended as set forth below, which we refer to as the “outside date”); however if all conditions to commencement of the exchange offer, other than the conditions relating to receipt of all required approvals and absence of pending adverse actions and conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the closing to be held on the condition date, then the outside date may be extended until June 30, 2012 at the election of the Amaro family or LAN by written notice to the other party;
 
 
o
if any governmental entity of competent jurisdiction refuses to grant any required approval (other than any approval required from CVM with respect to the inclusion in the Edital of any of the LAN’s conditions to the completion of the exchange offer) and such refusal has become final and nonappealable or any governmental entity of competent jurisdiction has enacted, issued, promulgated, enforced or entered any restraining order that has become final and non-appealable, and such event would give rise to the failure of the condition relating to receipt of all required approvals or absence of restraining order;
 
 
o
if the vote of the holders of LAN common stock at the LAN shareholders meeting to approve the mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the transaction agreements has been taken and completed and the requisite LAN shareholder approval is not obtained; or
 
 
o
if TAM has called five TAM shareholders meetings and a quorum is not present at any such meeting or if a quorum was present and the vote of the holders of the free float shares at the TAM shareholders meeting to select an appraiser is taken and completed but the requisite TAM shareholder approval is not obtained;
 
however, none of the termination rights described in the preceding bullet points will be available to any party whose material breach of a representation, warranty or covenant in any transaction agreement has been a principal cause of the failure of the exchange offer to commence by the outside date or the failure of the condition giving rise to such termination right, as applicable.
 
 
·
by LAN:
 
 
o
if TAM, the TAM controlling shareholder or the Amaro family has breached or failed to perform any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in the transaction agreements or any of such representations and warranties becomes untrue as of any date after the signing date, which breach or failure to perform or untruth (i) would give rise to the failure of the condition relating to accuracy of the representations and warranties of TAM, the TAM controlling shareholder and the Amaro family or compliance by any of them with their obligations under the transaction agreements and (ii) is not capable of being cured or, if capable of being cured, is not cured by TAM, the TAM controlling shareholder or the Amaro family, as applicable, by the earlier of (A) the day before the outside date and (B) the 30th calendar day following receipt of written notice of such breach or failure to perform from LAN;

until such time as TEP Chile sells any of its LAN common shares, the LAN controlling shareholders will vote their LAN common shares to elect to the LATAM board of directors any individual designated by TEP Chile unless TEP Chile beneficially owns enough LAN common shares to directly elect two directors to the LATAM board of directors;

102

 

The parties to the Holdco 1 shareholders agreement and TAM shareholders agreement have agreed to vote their voting shares of Holdco 1 and shares of TAM so as to give effect to the agreements with respect to representation on the TAM board of directors discussed above.
 
Transfer Restrictions
 
Pursuant to the control group shareholders agreement, the LAN controlling shareholders and TEP Chile are subject to certain restrictions on sales, transfers and pledges of the LAN common shares and (in the case of TEP Chile only) the voting shares of Holdco 1 beneficially owned by them. Except for a limited amount of LAN common shares, neither the LAN controlling shareholders nor TEP Chile may sell any of its LAN common shares, and TEP Chile may not sell its voting shares of Holdco 1, until the third anniversary of the effective time.  Thereafter, sales of LAN common shares by either party are permitted, subject to (i) certain limitations on the volume and frequency of sales and (ii) in the case of TEP Chile only, certain minimum ownership requirements. After the tenth anniversary of the effective time, TEP Chile may sell all of its LAN common shares and voting shares of Holdco 1 as a block, subject to (x) approval of the transferee by the LATAM board of directors, (y) the condition that the sale not have an adverse effect and (z) a right of first offer in favor of the LAN controlling shareholders, which we refer to collectively as “block sale provisions.” An “adverse effect” is defined in the control group shareholders agreement to mean a material adverse effect on our and Holdco 1’s ownership of TAM and its subsidiaries or the ability of TAM and its subsidiaries to operate their airline businesses worldwide. The LAN controlling shareholders have agreed to transfer any voting shares of Holdco 1 acquired pursuant to such right of first offer to us for the same consideration paid for such shares.
 
The block sale provisions will also apply to any transfer by TEP Chile of LAN common shares or voting shares of Holdco 1 beneficially owned by it after the third anniversary of the effective time if a release event (as described below) occurs or if TEP Chile is required to make two or more directed votes during any twenty-four month period at two meetings (consecutive or not) of the shareholders of LAN held at least twelve months apart and we have has not yet fully exercised our conversion option described below. A “release event” will occur if (i) a capital increase of LATAM occurs, (ii) TEP Chile does not fully exercise the preemptive rights granted to it under applicable law in Chile with respect to such capital increase in respect of all of its restricted LAN common shares, and (iii) after such capital increase is completed, the individual designated by TEP Chile for election to the LATAM board of directors with the assistance of the LAN controlling shareholders is not elected to the LATAM board of directors.
 
In addition, after the tenth anniversary of the effective time and after the occurrence of the full ownership trigger date (as described below under the “—Conversion Option” section), TEP Chile may sell all or any portion of its LAN common shares, subject to (x) a right of first offer in favor of the LAN controlling shareholders and (y) the restrictions on sales of LAN common shares more than once in a 12-month period.
 
The control group shareholders agreement provides certain exceptions to these restrictions on transfer for certain pledges of LAN common shares made by the parties and for transfers to affiliates, in each case under certain limited circumstances.
 
In addition, TEP Chile agreed in the Holdco 1 shareholders agreement not to vote its voting shares of Holdco 1, or to take any other action, in support of any transfer by Holdco 1 of any equity securities or convertible securities issued by it or by any of TAM or its subsidiaries without our prior written consent.
 
Call Option
 
We agreed in the Holdco 1 shareholders agreement not to sell or transfer any shares of TAM stock to any person (other than our affiliates) at any time when TEP Chile owns any voting shares of Holdco 1.  However, we will have the right to effect such a sale or transfer if, at the same time as such sale or transfer, we (or our assignee) acquires all the voting shares of Holdco 1 beneficially owned by TEP Chile for an amount equal to TEP Chile’s then current tax basis in such shares and any costs TEP Chile is required to incur to effect such sale or transfer.  TEP Chile has irrevocably granted us the assignable right to purchase all of the voting shares of Holdco 1 beneficially owned by TEP Chile in connection with any such sale.

Overview
 
The principal and most distinctive aspect of our business model is the way in which we integrate our passenger and cargo activities. Our sophisticated service-oriented approach to combining passenger and cargo traffic enables us to better utilize our aircraft, reduce our break-even load factors on passenger flights, and diversify our revenue streams. Furthermore, the geographically diversified nature of the passenger and cargo networks of LAN and its subsidiaries provide additional diversification in our operations and reduce exposure to any single market. These benefits have helped us maintain strong profitability and expand our operations consistently in recent years, despite volatile macroeconomic conditions and various external shocks that have affected the airline industry over the years.
 
Approximately 97% of our revenues are generated by our air transport activities. We generate the balance of our operating revenues from customs and storage brokerage operations, aircraft leases, courier services, on-board sales, tour operator services, third-party maintenance, ground handling and interest income.
 
Our operating environment in 2010 was marked by strong recovery and growth in both the cargo and passenger businesses compared with 2009. The Company demonstrated its ability to seize opportunities in the recovery of global economy despite the challenging outlook we faced in 2009, and withstand the impact of the earthquake that affected Chile in February 2010.

During 2010, growth in passenger demand was driven by growth in both domestic and international markets.  During this period, cargo demand showed a strong recovery and growth as a result of the global economic recovery, which affected global trade. While competition on both passenger and cargo routes has grown gradually since 2005, changes in competitive conditions in specific markets generated opportunities for us to expand. Certain factors outside of our control, such as fuel prices that have risen consistently since 2002, and reached historically record-high levels in mid-2008, have also generated significant cost pressures. During 2010, fuel prices again increased as compared to 2009.
 
Our results for the period between 2009 and 2010 reflect our efforts in recent years to expand and diversify our revenue base while maintaining an efficient cost base. We have aimed to effectively respond to the opportunities and challenges presented by the expansion and diversification of our revenue base. This process included expanding our domestic passenger operations in Chile and Peru, continuing to develop the domestic operations of LAN Argentina, launching domestic operations of LAN Ecuador in April 2009, and starting passenger operations in Colombia through the purchase of Aires in November 2010. As a result, we have significantly increased our passenger capacity and redeployed our assets in response to specific opportunities. In the cargo business, we have adjusted our routes and our capacity mix to adapt to changing cargo flows and we have expanded cargo operations within the region and on long haul routes to take advantage of existing opportunities. We have also launched initiatives to enhance customer preference and increase efficiency. These initiatives have enabled us to maintain a solid market position and to develop new mechanisms to sustain high levels of profitability despite facing unprecedented high fuel prices during 2008 and the negative effect of the global economic crisis during 2009. As a result, net income amounted to US$336.5 million in 2008, US$231.1 million in 2009 and US$419.7 million in 2010.
 
Passenger Business
 
In general, our passenger revenues are driven by international and country-specific political and economic conditions, competitive activity, the attractiveness of the destinations that we serve, and the capacity we allocate among our different routes.
 
Passenger demand has grown in the last years, driven by positive economic conditions in Latin America. Economic growth and improved customer confidence have led to an expansion in both business and leisure traffic to and from Latin America. Increased interest in travel into South America from Europe and the United States has been another factor positively impacting overall passenger traffic. As a consequence, passenger volumes in markets such as Chile, Peru, Argentina and Ecuador grew significantly between 2009 and 2010. LAN’s traffic growth during 2010, which reached 11.1%, was also based on a capacity expansion plan driven by the delivery of nine new passenger aircraft during the year.
 
Competitive activity on both our domestic and international passenger routes has also varied over the last several years. On our international routes, competition gradually increased as both incumbent and new competitors expanded their operations. Nevertheless, we have maintained our market share in most of our international markets since 2005 and have gradually increased our presence in the domestic markets of Chile and Peru, as well as in the Argentine domestic and international routes. We also initiated domestic operations in Ecuador in April 2009 and in Colombia, through the acquisition of Aires, in November 2010.  During 2010 the combined yield for the international and domestic passenger businesses increased 6.8%, reflecting the recovery and growth in demand experienced in 2010.  During 2009 yields experienced a 16.2% decrease compared with 2008, as a result of the economic crisis that affected passenger demand for airflights in 2009 and a high comparison base in 2008 as fuel surcharge incorporated in the yields represented the increase in fuel prices during that year.
 
Overall, market conditions on the passenger business provided us with opportunities to advance on our strategic development plans and expand our operations. We addressed these by taking advantage of our integrated business model, efficient operations, continued customer focus, and flexible capacity management. Customer focus has provided a key tool to address competitive challenges as well as to successfully enter new markets.
 
 
105

 

We also took advantage of our flexibility to adapt capacity quickly in response to demand shocks or market opportunities. We actively manage our capacity by transferring capacity between routes or adding new aircraft when necessary. This enabled us to rapidly respond by adding capacity in the Peruvian domestic market during 2004 and supporting the launch of LAN Argentina’s domestic operations in 2005, as well as launching the latter’s international operations in October 2006, and launching domestic operations in Ecuador in April 2009.
 
These opportunistic actions fit in with our long-term development strategy, which is aimed at consolidating LAN as the preferred carrier in the Southern Cone. This plan incorporates development of domestic, regional and intercontinental routes in the markets we serve. Continuous monitoring of demand trends and competitive activity has allowed us to identify opportunities and, as a consequence, additional capacity has also been allocated to operations to the South Pacific, Europe and the United States, as well to specific regional routes. We also shifted capacity among our routes in order to better match seasonal patterns in flights to the United States and to other destinations. Further refinements to our itineraries were also implemented in order to improve connectivity between our operations and those of our partners.
 
LAN’s flexibility and broad passenger network also allowed us to manage the negative impact of the catastrophic earthquake that struck Chile in February 2010, causing significant damage to the terminal building at the Santiago International Airport and affecting all air travel in and out of the country. With no alternative airport in the Santiago Metropolitan Region, commercial passenger operations were suspended for three days, and were re-launched on March 2, 2010 with provisional facilities. LAN operated with reduced capacity out of Santiago until the terminal building was fully operational on March 28, 2010. LAN estimates the net impact of decreased passenger operations due to the earthquake were approximately US$30 million in 2010. Cargo operations were not materially affected by the earthquake, nor were the passenger operations of LAN or its subsidiaries in Peru, Ecuador and Argentina.
 
We have also enhanced our regional network by selectively adding new destinations and launching new routes. Since 2004, we have been developing an intra-regional hub in Lima. We have launched several routes that enable us to effectively use Lima as a connecting point for passengers traveling between Mexico City, Bogotá, Caracas, Guayaquil, Quito, Buenos Aires, La Paz, Santa Cruz, Sao Paulo and Santiago de Chile. In 2007, we began direct service between Lima and Madrid; in 2008, we began service to Medellín, Colombia (with one stop in Quito); and in 2009, we began direct service to Cartagena de Indias, Colombia as well as service from Lima to Cali via Quito and from Lima to Punta Cana, Cancun and Cordoba. During the first half of 2010 the Company implemented various new passenger destinations. Lan Peru launched a new regional route in August 2010 between Lima and Brasilia. Regarding long-haul operations, in July 2010, LAN Peru launched four weekly frequencies between Lima and San Francisco, with connections from Sao Paulo, Santiago and Buenos Aires. We plan to continue growing our operation in Lima by increasing the number of flight frequencies we operate on these routes and also by adding new destinations.
 
Among others, on May 10, 2010, LAN Argentina launched three daily flights between Santiago and Aeroparque and in June 2010 it launched services between Aeroparque and Sao Paulo.  In 2010, Lan Argentina also initiated flights between Rosario and Lima.
 
Our domestic operations have also grown between 2009 and 2010.
 
 
·
In both the Chilean and Peruvian domestic markets, total domestic traffic increased during 2010, driven mainly by the positive macroeconomic scenarios in both markets and by attractive fare structures in line with the model for short-haul operations that we implemented in 2007.
 
 
·
Between 2005 and 2010, LAN Argentina increased the number of Argentine domestic destinations from six to fourteen and, based on internal estimates, our market share was approximately 30% as of December 2010.
 
 
·
By the end of 2008, Ecuador’s aeronautical authority, CNAC, granted LAN Ecuador permission to operate domestic flights within the country. These operations started in April 2009 with flights between the cities of Quito and Guayaquil. As of December 2010, LAN Ecuador was operating sixty-three flights a week between Guayaquil and Quito, one of the most heavily traveled routes in Latin America, as well as fourteen flights a week from Quito to Cuenca and seven flights a week from Guayaquil to Cuenca. In September 2010, LAN Ecuador launched regular service to the Galapagos Islands, offering a daily flight from both Quito and Guayaquil. LAN Ecuador had 16.7% market share in the domestic market of Ecuador as of December 2010.

Cargo Business
 
Our cargo business depends on exports from and imports to South America and  is, therefore, affected by economic conditions, foreign exchange rates, changes in international trade, the health of particular industries, competition and fuel prices (which we usually pass on to our customers through a cargo fuel surcharge). The relative size of inbound and outbound flows to a particular market or route is a key element in cargo operations as the unidirectional nature of freight flows requires airlines to create routes that combine origin-destination pairs that feature complementary freight flows. Changes in macroeconomic conditions may lead to major fluctuations in cargo flows to and from Latin America, therefore requiring continuous route and capacity adjustments.
 
The flexibility that this business model allows based on adaptation to changes in market trends was key for LAN’s operations in 2009 when the business was affected by the contraction of import and export markets in response to the global economic crisis. In addition, LAN Cargo saw a sharp drop in salmon exports from Chile as a result of an outbreak of the ISA virus. During 2009 LAN received two Boeing 777 freighters at a time where there was a decrease in demand in cargo operations. These aircraft were utilized to increase capacity, mainly on routes between South America and Europe.  Not only did the incorporation of these cargo planes increase capacity, but they also helped the company expand its coverage beyond the region and strengthen its cargo services to Europe; LAN currently operates routes between Frankfurt and Brazil, Argentina and Chile, Ecuador and Colombia and Amsterdam and Frankfurt. In line with this strategy, the Company plans to initiate a fifth weekly freighter frequency to Europe.
 
During 2009 the Company achieved an important step in regional expansion. Colombia is Latin America’s largest market for exports by air transport to the United States, exporting an estimated 200,000 tons annually. In March 2009, LAN Cargo launched LANCO, after successfully obtaining the necessary operational and technical certification. It launched its services with two latest-generation Boeing 767-300Fs, with a capacity for 54 tons of freight, connecting the cities of Bogotá and Medellin with Miami.
 
In addition, in March 2009, the Company’s cargo subsidiary in Brazil, ABSA, began operations in the country’s domestic market, with one flight daily - from Monday to Friday - between the cities of Sao Paulo and Manaus. On this route, ABSA operates an advanced-technology Boeing 767-300F with a capacity of 54 tons.  This route accounts for a large part of Brazil’s airfreight traffic. Manaus is the country’s fourth largest city in terms of GDP, with a large number of companies, principally in the electronics sector, in its industrial pole. The special tax incentives offered by the Amazon capital of Manaos as part of efforts to promote the area’s development, make it an attractive alternative for exporter and importer clients. During 2010, the Company opened a route between Sao Paulo and Fortaleza and Sao Paulo and Recife.
 
As the economy started to recover at the end of 2009, and continuing through 2010, LAN was able to take advantage of the new capacity and growth opportunities in various markets; as a result, the cargo business played an important role in driving LAN’s revenue growth in 2010.
 
Cargo traffic increased 23.5% between 2009 and 2010, from US$2,623.3 million in cargo revenue ton kilometers in 2009 to 3,238.3 million cargo revenue ton kilometers in 2010. This improvement was in line with the 20.6% growth experienced by this segment of the international air cargo industry. The Company increased its capacity by approximately 20.5%, resulting in a 1.7-point improvement in its load factor to 70.1%. The increase in capacity was mainly driven by LAN’s incorporation of two types of aircraft.  LAN added two new Boeing 777-200 freighters in 2009, which is the most modern and efficient cargo aircraft of its type in the world, with a capacity for 104 tons of freight and a range of 9,045 kilometers when carrying its maximum weight.  LAN also leased two Boeing 767-300 freighters at the end of 2010 in order to expand routes between Latin America and the United States, as well as by higher utilization of the freighter fleet. These efforts allow LAN to enhance its competitiveness in the region by positioning it as the first airline in the region - and only the second internationally - to use these latest-generation cargo planes. LAN Cargo transported 779 thousand tons of freight in 2010, an increase of 20.1% as compared to 2009.
 
In 2010, LAN’s cargo revenues rose in 43.0% to US$1.281 million, representing 28.3% of the Company’s total annual revenues. The growth in revenues also reflects the 15.8% increase in cargo yields that year.

Cost Structure
 
LAN’s costs are generally driven by the size of our operations, fuel prices, fleet costs and exchange rates.
 
As an airline, we are subject to fluctuations in costs that are outside our control, particularly fuel prices and exchange rates. However, we manage part of our exposure to changes in fuel prices through a fuel-hedging policy and the use of pass-through mechanisms on both the passenger and cargo businesses. For more information see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk—Risk of Fluctuations in Jet Fuel Prices” under Item 11. Personnel expenses are another significant component of our overall costs. Because a significant portion of our labor costs is denominated in pesos, appreciation of the peso against the dollar as well as increases in local inflation rates can result in increased costs in dollar terms and can negatively affect our results. However, this cost pressure is mitigated by the partial natural hedge between the currencies of denomination of our total operating revenues and expenses.
 
Commission to travel and cargo agents also compose a significant cost to us. We compete with other airlines over the amount of commission we pay per sale, particularly in connection with special programs and marketing efforts, and to maintain competitive incentives with travel agents. In February 2007 we reduced commission paid to agents in Chile for economy class ticket sales from 6% to 1%. Between 2007 and 2008, commissions were also reduced to 1% in Ecuador, Argentina and Peru.
 
Fleet related expenses, namely aircraft rentals and depreciation are another significant cost. These costs are mainly fixed and can be reduced on a per unit basis by achieving higher daily aircraft utilization rates.
 
During 2010, LAN’s operating costs increased.  For example, fuel prices increased from record-low levels in 2009 which led to US$202.3 million in increased fuel expenses and contributed to a 5.7% increase in cost per ATK (a key industry metric). Excluding fuel costs, the increase in cost per ATK over this period was 5.9%.  In addition, the Company recognized a US$1.0 million fuel hedge gain compared to a US$128.7 million fuel hedge loss in 2009.
 
Apart from higher expenditure on fuel, the Company paid higher wages and salaries due to a higher average headcount that is in-line with the Company’s operational expansion, and the impact of the appreciation of Latin American currencies in 2010.

We have launched various efficiency-related initiatives aimed at reducing fuel consumption and increasingly incorporating efficient aircraft into the fleet.
 
Higher aircraft utilization has been an important source of improved efficiency. Our long-haul passenger and cargo aircraft are used, on average, over 14.3 hours per day. Our utilization strategy in 2010 was designed in concert with the addition of new routes to our network, which enabled us to leverage our human and physical assets for increased efficiency. This was especially the case in our domestic operations in Chile and Peru, where we increased aircraft utilization as a result of the itineraries of our new short-haul business model. We have increased our use of our narrow body fleet of Airbus A320-Family Aircraft to approximately 10.8 block hours per day per aircraft.
 
In domestic operations we have also worked consistently to improve our cost structure. This process has included initiatives such as the modification of short-haul service standards, which were implemented in late 2005 and modified further in 2007 as a result of the new business model on domestic routes, enabling us to reduce passenger service expenses. The key elements of this new business model have been a reduction in sales and distribution costs through higher Internet penetration and reduced agency commission, a faster turnaround time, and increased self check-in service through web check-in and kiosks at airports.
 
In addition, during 2009 we implemented LEAN, a system for improving our processes by eliminating activities that do not add value to processes (thus increasing the value of each activity and suppressing those that are superfluous), thereby allowing us to reduce costs, and increase customer satisfaction. In addition, during 2010 we continued to install winglets on our Boeing 767 aircraft fleet, achieving fuel efficiencies of approximately 5% per aircraft. To mitigate the environmental impact of our operations we strive to operate in a sustainable manner by reducing our fuel consumption and related emissions.

Outlook
 
Our long-term strategy is aimed at consolidating LAN’s position as the main passenger and cargo airline in South America. We will continue to expand our network by further developing our existing routes, adding new destinations, developing new alliances, and entering new markets. We expect our brand recognition and a continuous effort to improve service standards to drive increased customer preference, ultimately leading to strong market shares in the markets we serve. Our product and service design is aimed at providing passengers and cargo customers with differentiated offerings that provide valuable solutions to the needs of each of our customer types. We also aim to have products and services that evolve together with changes in technology, market conditions and competitive actions. We plan to maintain a highly competitive cost structure by leveraging our cost-conscious culture, incorporating new technologies and practices, and by identifying and implementing adequate cost-reduction and efficiency-related initiatives. We believe that a focus on flexibility will enable us to adequately react to changing market conditions. Finally, a healthy financial structure will allow us to effectively fund our growth, enhance our strategic development and reinforce our customer appeal.
 
Our results will be mainly determined by the expansion of our current network, the evolution of our market share in our main markets, our level of success in entering new markets, the continued implementation of new efficiency-related programs, the continued implementation of our business model for short-haul operations, and fuel price levels.
 
 
·
We plan to increase frequencies on long-haul flights out of Chile, Peru, Ecuador and Argentina, and eventually add new destinations in the United States and Europe. We plan to reinforce our regional network through the addition of new frequencies on our current routes and the addition of new destinations. We will also seek to enter into new alliances in both the passenger and cargo business, especially to build up our presence in new markets.
 
 
·
Competitive activity in key markets has increased gradually in recent years, and we expect it to continue doing so in the future. Nevertheless, we expect to maintain solid market shares based on offering attractive value propositions that combine broad international and domestic networks, a strong customer focus and a competitive cost base.
 
 
·
We are also working on increasing efficiency by streamlining our support processes, reducing commercial costs, and by continuing with the implementation of our new business model on short-haul operations. Further enhancements should arise from economies of scale, especially as solid growth in the passenger business accompanied by controlled fixed costs will serve to dilute our fixed costs base. In both the passenger and the cargo business, efficiencies are also expected to come from the replacement of older aircraft with new and more fuel-efficient Boeing 787 and Boeing 777 models and from efficiency-related initiatives such as installing winglets on the B767 fleet as well as continuing to adjust aircraft configuration to market demand.
 
Our financial performance will also be highly dependent on jet fuel prices.  These prices rose significantly until mid-2008, which led to a sharp rise in our fuel expenditures, but significantly declined in 2009. Presently, there is a trend towards increases in jet fuel prices because of the increased demand caused by the 2010 recovery in the global economy coupled with conflicts during February 2011 in Egypt and Libya that affect global fuel supply. Although we have implemented a number of strategies to mitigate the impact of the volatility of fuel prices, including financial hedging and the use of fuel surcharges, it is unlikely that we will be able to fully protect ourselves against the volatility of fuel costs.
 
Overall, we believe that these initiatives will enable us to successfully respond to growth opportunities, maintain a solid competitive position, and enhance our distinct cost performance.

The revenue increase during 2010 was driven by the recovery of the world economy and the strong capacity expansion in both the passenger and cargo businesses. In addition, the traffic increased strongly, driving yields and load factors higher.
 
Operating costs increased mainly due to higher fuel prices, higher wages and salaries driven by the appreciation of Latin America currencies, as well as higher costs related to ACMI leases in the cargo business.
 
Operating Revenues
 
Operating revenues in 2010 totaled US$4,390.5 million, a 24.7% increase as compared to total operating revenues of US$3,519.2 million in 2009. Our consolidated passenger revenues increase 18,5% to US$3,109.8 million in 2010 from US$2,623.6 million in 2009, due to a 6.8% increase in yields (from US¢8.8 to US¢9.4), and passenger load factors, which increased from 76.9% in 2009 to 78.3% in 2010 as the 11.2% increase in traffic outpaced the 9.2% capacity increase. Overall, revenues per ASK increased 8.5%. Traffic grew as a result of a 10.6% increase in domestic traffic (including domestic operations by LAN and its affiliates in Chile, Argentina, Peru and Ecuador), and an 11.3% increase in international traffic. International traffic accounted for approximately 70% of our total passenger traffic during 2010. Yields increased 6.8% as a result of a stronger demand environment driven by world economy recovery during the year.
 
Domestic passenger revenues in Chile, Peru, Argentina and Ecuador, which accounted for approximately 35% of our total passenger revenues in 2010 as compared to approximately 36% in 2009, increased 14.7% to US$1,072.4 million in 2010 from US$934.9 million in 2009. Domestic passenger traffic (as measured in RPKs) increased 10.5%, while domestic passenger capacity (as measured in ASKs) increased 6,6%, resulting in a increase in load factor from 74.9% in 2009 to 77.7% in 2010. Domestic passenger yield increased 3.7% from US¢10.4 in 2009 to US¢10.8 in 2010, mainly due to strong increases in traffic.
 
International passenger revenues, which accounted for approximately 65% of total passenger revenues in 2010 as compared to approximately 64% of passenger revenues in 2009, increased 20.7% to US$2,018.2 million in 2010 from US$1,672.0 million in 2009. International passenger traffic (as measured in RPKs) increased 11.3%, while passenger capacity (as measured in ASKs) increased 10.4% in 2010, resulting in an improvement in load factor from 77.8% in 2009 to 78.5% in 2010. Total international passenger yield (based on RPKs) increased 8.0% to US¢9.6 in 2010 from US¢8.7 in 2009, driven by strong world economy recovery.
 
Cargo revenues increased 32.1%, to US$1,280.7 million in 2010 from US$895.6 million in 2009, mainly driven by a 24.8% increase in yields (US¢41.6 in 2010 from US¢35.7 in 2009), and coupled with a 23.5% increase in traffic. In 2010, cargo traffic was driven by a strong recovery and growth in the global cargo markets, as well as better revenue management practices capacity increased 20.5% during 2010. As a consequence, load factors increased from 68.4% in 2009 to 70.1% in 2010. Revenues per ATK also increased 18.7% as compared to 2009.
 
Cost of Sales
 
Cost of sales in 2010 totaled US$3,012.7 million, representing a 19.4% increase as compared to cost of sales of US$2,522.8 million in 2009. As a percentage of total revenues, cost of sales decreased from 71.7% in 2009 to 68.6% in 2010, as a result of higher traffic and yields compared to 2009.
 
The increase in cost of sales was driven by higher aircraft fuel expenses, which totaled US$1,161.9 million in 2010, a 21.1% increase as compared to aircraft fuel expenses of US$959.6 million in 2009. Fuel expenses increased 21.1% mainly due to a 26.4% increase in unhedged jet fuel prices (9.4% in the hedged price), coupled with a 10.7% increase in consumption. However, the Company recognized a US$1.0 million fuel hedge gain, compared to a US$128.7 million fuel hedge loss in 2009.
 
In addition, the Company recorded higher ACMI leases in the cargo business due to the expansion in the cargo business. Depreciation expenses increased mainly due to the incorporation of one new Boeing 767-300 passenger aircraft in February 2010 and eight new Airbus A320 aircraft between July and December 2010. For further information on depreciation policies, please refer to “Critical Accounting Policies” below, and Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements.

Aircraft maintenance expenses decreased by 0.3%, from US$121.0 million in 2009 to US$120.6 million in 2010, due to lower maintenance payments to third parties, which offset the effects of a larger fleet. Aircraft rental expenses increased mainly due to an increase in the average rental cost due to the delivery of two leased Boeing 777 freighters in April and May 2009, two leased Airbus A320s in September 2010 and two leased Boeing 767-300 freighters in November and December 2010. Wages and benefits expenses increased mainly because of a higher average headcount, which is in-line with the Company’s operational expansion, an appreciation of Latin American currencies, and an increase in variable bonus payments, which were in line with higher profits obtained in 2010.
 
Passenger service expenses totaled US$114.2 million in 2010 compared to US$92.8 million in 2009. This represented a 23.1% increase that was driven by a 12.3% increase in the number of passengers transported during the year, as well as higher compensation paid to passengers during this period.
 
As a result of the above, gross margin increased 38.2% from US$996.4 million in 2009 to US$1,377.8 million in 2010.
 
Other operating income decreased by 2.6% to US$132.8 million in 2010 from US$136.4 million in 2009, mainly because of a decrease in tour and travel services and lower revenues from aircraft leases, which were partially offset by higher revenues from storage and custom services to third parties. Interest income decreased by 18.1% to US$14.9 million in 2010 from US$18.2 million in 2009, mainly due to lower average interest rates.
 
Distribution costs increased 17.3% from US$327.0 million in 2009 to US$383.5 million in 2010. This increase was caused by higher overall commissions to agents (related to both passenger and cargo sales), which increased by 20.5% to US$173.4 million in 2010 from US$143.9 million in 2009, and by a 24.8% increase in traffic revenues (for both passenger and cargo revenues); this increase was partially offset by a 0.1 point reduction in the average commission paid. This reduction was mainly related to a decrease in the commission rate paid to agents in the passenger business.
 
Administrative expenses increased 23.1% from US$269.6 million in 2009 to US$331.8 million in 2010 due to the higher wages of administrative personnel and higher asset (non aircraft) depreciation, as a result of additions in 2009 and 2010.
 
Other operating expenses increased 71.5% from US$100.5 million in 2009 to US$172.4 million in 2010, as a result of higher sales costs, advertising and marketing expenses and costs related to tours and travel services.
 
Financial costs (from non-financial activities) increased by 1.4% to US$155.3 million in 2010 from US$153.1 million in 2009 due to higher debt related to fleet financing, but was partially offset by lower average interest rates.
 
Exchange rate differences increased from an expense of US$11.2 million in 2009 to a gain of US$13.8 million in 2010 as a result of a recognized US$5.4 million gain that mainly stemmed from foreign exchange variations during the period; part of the exchange gain was a result of remittances from LAN’s operations in Venezuela. See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk—Risk of Variation in Foreign Currency Exchange Rates,” under Item 11, for a discussion of LAN’s hedging program for currency fluctuations.. During 2009 the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency impacted the Company’s operations in that country and the Company recognized a US$28.0 million charge related to it.
 
On December 31, 2010, the Company held US$ 36.0 million in assets located in Venezuela, of which over 74.0% constituted cash equivalents. On a consolidated basis, the Company’s assets related to its operations in Venezuela represented less than 0.5% of the total assets of the Company. For the year 2010, operating revenues of the Venezuelan regional office represented 1.7% of the Company’s consolidated revenues.   The Company´s operations in Venezuela are carried out through an agency that, from an accounting perspective, is considered an extension of the Company. Therefore, the functional currency is the US dollar and hyperinflationary accounting is not required.
 
As of December 31, 2010 the Company recorded a US$14.0 million gain (pre-tax) due to the reversal of a portion of the provision related to the investigation in the cargo business carried out by the European Commission. This was as a result of the fine announced in November 2010, which was lower than the amount provided for. This reversal is recorded in Other gains/(losses).  (See “Information on the Company—Business of the Company—Cargo Operations—Cargo-Related Investigations,” under Item 4).

Income tax expenses increased by 82.2%, amounting to US$81.1 million in 2010 as compared to US$44.5 million in 2009. This increase was primarily the result of an 80.9% increase in pre-tax income, coupled with a 0.1% increase in the average tax rate (currently 16.2%) in 2010. For more information, see “—Critical Accounting Policies—Deferred Income Taxes” below and Note 20 to our audited consolidated financial statements.
 
Year ended December 31, 2009 compared to year ended December 31, 2008
 
Net Income
 
Net income for the period decreased 31.1% from US$338.3 million in 2008 to US$233.0 million in 2009. Net income attributable to the parent company’s equity holders decreased 31.3% from US$336.5 million in 2008 to US$231.1 million in 2009.
 
The revenue decline during 2009 was partially offset by a strong capacity expansion and an improvement in demand in the passenger business, mainly driven by the domestic markets. The decline in cargo revenues reflected the impact of the global crisis in both import and export markets, as well as the salmon ISA Virus crisis in Chile. These negative impacts were partially offset by our entrance into new markets, and the expansion of our routes network. Operating costs declined mainly due to lower fuel prices, as well as due to expense-reduction initiatives. In addition, during 2008 the Company had recorded a provision of US$109.0 million in other net earnings in connection with a plea agreement entered into with the DOJ regarding an antitrust investigation related to our cargo business (see “Information on the Company—Business of the Company—Cargo Operations—Cargo-Related Investigations,” under Item 4).
 
Operating Revenues
 
Operating revenues in 2009 totaled US$3,519.2 million, a 15.0% decrease as compared to total operating revenues of US$4,140.2 million in 2008. Our consolidated passenger revenues declined 7.0% to US$2,623.6 million in 2009 from US$2,820.8 million in 2008, due to a 16.0% decrease in yields (from US¢10.5 to US¢8.8), which was partially offset by a 10.7% increase in passenger traffic. Load factors increased from 76.6% in 2008 to 76.9% in 2009 as the 10.7% increase in traffic outpaced the 10.2% capacity increase. Overall, revenues per ASK decreased 15.6%. Traffic grew as a result of a 20.6% increase in domestic traffic (including domestic operations by LAN and its affiliates in Chile, Argentina, Peru and Ecuador), and a 6.9% increase in international traffic. International traffic accounted for approximately 70% of our total passenger traffic during 2009. Yields decreased 16.0% as a result of lower fuel surcharges and lower fares due to price promotions implemented on certain routes as a result of weaker demand during 2009.
 
Domestic passenger revenues in Chile, Peru, Argentina and Ecuador, which accounted for approximately 36% of our total passenger revenues in 2009 as compared to approximately 32% in 2008, increased 2.6% to US$934.9 million in 2009 from US$911.5 million in 2008. Domestic passenger traffic (as measured in RPKs) increased 20.6%, while domestic passenger capacity (as measured in ASKs) increased 22.3%, resulting in a decrease in load factor from 76.0% in 2008 to 74.9% in 2009. Domestic passenger yield decreased 14.9% from US¢12.2 in 2008 to US¢10.4 in 2009, mainly due to lower fuel surcharges driven by lower fuel prices and lower fares due to price promotions.
 
International passenger revenues, which accounted for approximately 64% of total passenger revenues in 2009 as compared to approximately 67% of passenger revenues in 2008, decreased 11.1% to US$1,672.0 million in 2009 from US$1,880.9 million in 2008. International passenger traffic (as measured in RPKs) increased 6.9%, while passenger capacity (as measured in ASKs) increased 5.6% in 2009, resulting in an improvement in load factor from 76.9% in 2008 to 77.8% in 2009. Total international passenger yield (based on RPKs) decreased 16.9% to US¢8.0 in 2009 from US¢9.6 in 2008, driven by lower fuel surcharges and nominal fare decreases due to price promotions.
 
Cargo revenues fell by 32.1%, to US$895.6 million in 2009 from US$1,319.4 million in 2008, mainly driven by a 24.8% decrease in yields (US¢34.1 in 2009 from US¢45.4 in 2008), and coupled with a 9.7% decrease in traffic. In 2009, cargo traffic was impacted by the global economic crisis, a very weak seed export season, as well as by the decline in salmon exports from Chile as a result of the ISA virus. Capacity during 2009 decreased 6.0%. As a consequence, load factors decreased from 71.2% in 2008 to 68.4% in 2009. Revenues per ATK decreased 27.8% as compared to 2008.

Cost of Sales
 
Cost of sales in 2009 totaled US$2,522.8 million, representing a 12.8% decrease as compared to cost of sales of US$2,893.9 million in 2008. As a percentage of total revenues, cost of sales increased from 69.9% in 2008 to 71.7% in 2009.
 
The decline in cost of sales was driven by lower aircraft fuel expenses, which totaled US$959.6 million in 2009, a 30.9% decrease as compared to aircraft fuel expenses of US$1,388.8 million in 2008. Fuel expenses declined due to a 42.6% decrease in average fuel prices, which was partially offset by the Company’s recognition of a US$128.7 million fuel hedge loss, as compared to a US$35.4 million fuel hedge gain in 2008.
 
In addition, the Company recorded lower ACMI leases in the cargo business. These lower costs were offset in part by higher fleet costs. Depreciation expenses increased mainly due to the incorporation of two new Boeing 767 aircraft and three Airbus A319 aircraft to LAN’s fleet during 2009. For further information on depreciation policies, please refer to “Critical Accounting Policies” below, and Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements.
 
Aircraft maintenance expenses increased by 14.3%, from US$105.9 million in 2008 to US$121.0 million in 2009, due to a larger fleet and the escalation in maintenance contracts. Aircraft rental expenses increased mainly due to an increase in the average rental cost due to the arrival of two Boeing 777 freighters in the second quarter of 2009. Wages and benefits expenses increased mainly driven by an increase in average headcount during 2009, which was partially offset by an average depreciation of local currencies versus the U.S. dollar.
 
Passenger service expenses totaled US$92.8 million in 2009 compared to US$85.3 million in 2008. This represented an 8.8% increase driven mainly by a 16.3% increase in the number of passengers transported during 2009. This was partially offset by a decrease in on-board service costs due to a renegotiation of agreements with third party suppliers and an increase in logistics’ efficiencies in the on board service process.
 
As a result of the above, gross margin declined 20.1% from US$1,246.3 million in 2008 to US$996.4 million in 2009.
 
Other operating income decreased by 4.3% to US$154.5 million in 2009 from US$161.4 million in 2008, mainly driven by a decrease in onboard sales, storage and custom services to third parties and lower revenues from aircraft leases, which was partially offset by higher revenues from tour and travel services. Interest income decreased by 1.6% to US$18.2 million in 2009 from US$18.5 million in 2008 as a higher cash balance during 2009 was largely offset by lower interest rates. Marketing costs increased by 6.7% from US$107.3 million in 2008 to US$114.5 million in 2009, mainly driven by higher selling and marketing expenses.
 
Distribution costs declined 10.8% from US$366.7 million in 2008 to US$327.0 million in 2009.This decline was driven by lower commissions to agents (related to both passenger and cargo sales), which decreased by 24.4% to US$143.9 million in 2009 from US$190.2 million in 2008, due to a 15.0% decrease in traffic revenues (passenger and cargo), coupled with a 0.5% reduction in average commissions. This reduction was mainly related to lower commissions in the passenger business as a result of a higher penetration of internet sales and to a higher percentage of passengers traveling in Economy Class.
 
Administrative expenses declined 7.5% from US$167.6 million in 2008 to US$155.1 million in 2009 due to lower general and administrative expenses, offset in part by higher wages related to administrative personnel and higher asset (non aircraft) depreciation.
 
Other operating expenses declined 21.4% from US$127.9 million in 2008 to US$100.5 million in 2009, as a result of lower sales costs, as well as lower costs related to on-board sales, employee travel expenses and lower general expenses.
 
Financial costs (from non-financial activities) increased by 22.0% to US$153.1 million in 2009 from US$125.5 million in 2008 due to increased average long-term debt related to fleet financing.

Exchange rate differences decreased to an expense of US$11.2 million in 2009 from a gain of US$23.4 million in 2008. In addition, during 2009 the Company recognized a US$28.0 million charge related to the impact that the devaluation of the Venezuelan currency had on the Company’s operations in that country.  As of December 31, 2009 the Company held US$ 28.0 million in assets located in Venezuela (net of  already registered charges), of which  over 94.0% constituted cash equivalents. On a consolidated basis, the Company’s assets related to its operations in Venezuela represented less than 0.5% of the total assets of the Company.  For the year 2009, operating revenues of the Venezuelan regional office represented 2.4% of the Company’s consolidated revenues.  Given the foregoing, the Company does not foresee that hyperinflationary accounting will have a material effect on the Company in the near future.
 
Other net earnings (losses) amounted to a loss of US$11.7 million in 2009 as compared to a loss of US$135.3 million in 2008. In 2008, the Company recorded a provision of US$109.0 million in other net earnings in connection with a plea agreement entered into with the DOJ regarding an antitrust investigation related to our cargo business (see “Information on the Company—Business of the Company—Cargo Operations—Cargo-Related Investigations,” under Item 4).
 
Income tax expense decreased by 31.7%, amounting to US$44.5 million in 2009 as compared to US$65.1 million in 2008. This was mainly the result of a 31.2% decrease in pre-tax income, coupled with a 0.1% decrease in the average tax rate (currently 16.1%) in 2009. For more information, see “—Critical Accounting Policies—Deferred Income Taxes” below and Note 20 to our audited consolidated financial statements.

U.S. Dollar Presentation and Price-Level Adjustments
 
General
 
Foreign currency transactions
 
(a)           Presentation and functional currencies
 
The items included in the financial statements of each of Lan Airlines and its consolidated subsidiaries are valued using the currency of the main economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The functional currency of Lan Airlines is the U.S. dollar, which is also the currency of presentation of the audited consolidated financial statements of Lan Airlines and its subsidiaries.
 
(b)           Transactions and balances
 
Foreign currency transactions are translated to the functional currency using the exchange rates on the transaction dates. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from the liquidation of these transactions and from the translation, at the closing exchange rates, of the monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency, are shown in the consolidated statement of income.
 
(c)           Group entities
 
The results and financial position of all the LAN entities (none of which utilizes the currency of a hyper-inflationary economy) that have a functional currency other than the currency of presentation are translated to the currency of presentation as follows:
 
 
(i)
Assets and liabilities of each consolidated statement of financial position are translated at the closing exchange rate on the date of the consolidated statement of financial position;
 
(ii)          The revenues and expenses of each results account are translated at monthly average rates; and
 
(iii)         All the resultant exchange differences are shown as a separate component in net equity.
 
For consolidation purposes, exchange differences arising from the translation of a net investment in foreign entities (or in local entities with a functional currency different to that of the parent), and of loans and other foreign currency instruments designated as hedges for such investments, are recorded within net equity. When the investment is sold, these exchange differences are shown in the consolidated statement of income as part of the loss or gain on the sale.
 
Adjustments to the goodwill and fair value arising from the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and are translated at the period-end exchange rate.
 
Effects of Exchange Rate Fluctuations
 
Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar in terms of the pricing of our products, composition of our balance sheet and effects on our results of operations. Most of our revenues (85% in 2010) are in U.S. dollars or in prices pegged to the U.S. dollar and a substantial portion of our expenses (60% in 2010) is denominated in dollars or pegged to the U.S. dollar, particularly fuel costs, landing and over flight fees, aircraft rentals, insurance and aircraft components and supplies. Almost all of our liabilities are denominated in U.S. dollars (92% as of December 31, 2010), including bank loans, air traffic liabilities, and certain amounts payable to our suppliers. As of December 31, 2010, 90% of our assets were denominated in U.S. dollars, principally aircraft, cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other fixed assets. Substantially all of our commitments, including operating leases and purchase commitments for aircraft, are denominated in U.S. dollars.
 
Although we generally maintain our international passenger fares and cargo prices in U.S. dollars or at prices pegged to the U.S. dollar, we are exposed to foreign exchange losses and gains due to exchange rate fluctuations. We recorded a net foreign exchange loss of US$11.2 million in 2009 and a net foreign exchange profit of US$13.8 million in 2010, which are set forth in our consolidated statement of income under “Exchange rates differences.” For more information, see Notes 2.3(a) and 31 to our audited consolidated financial statements. The profit incurred in 2010 was mainly related to the appreciation of the Latin American currencies against the U.S. dollar.

IFRS/Non-IFRS Reconciliation
 
We use “Cost per ATK” and “Cost per ATK excluding fuel price variations” in analyzing operating costs on a per unit basis. “ATKs” (available ton kilometers) measure the number of tons of capacity available for the transportation of revenue load (passengers and/or cargo) multiplied by the kilometers flown. To obtain our unit costs, which are used by our management in the analysis of our results, we divide our “total costs” by our total ATKs. “Total costs” are calculated by starting with operating costs as defined under IFRS and making certain adjustments for interest costs and other  revenues. The cost component is further adjusted to obtain “costs per ATKs excluding fuel price variations,” in order to remove the impact of changes in fuel prices for the year. “Cost per ATK” and “Cost per ATK excluding fuel price variations” do not have a standardized meaning, and as such may not be comparable to similarly titled measures provided by other companies.  These metrics should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating costs or as indicators of performance or cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
 
The table below reconciles operating costs as defined by IFRS to costs used in the calculation of “Cost per ATK” and “Cost per ATK excluding fuel price variations.”

In addition, we use revenues per ASK or ATK, as applicable, in analyzing revenues on a per unit basis. To obtain our unit revenues, which are used by our management in the analysis of our results, we divide our passenger revenues by our total ASKs and our cargo revenues by our total ATKs. We use our revenues as defined under IFRS for purposes of the calculation of this metric. Revenues per ASK or ATK, as the case may be, do not have a standardized meaning, and as such may not be comparable to similarly titled measures provided by other companies. It is not an IFRS based measure of performance or liquidity. This metric should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenues or as indicators of performance or cash flows as a measure of liquidity.

Seasonality
 
Our operating revenues are substantially dependent on overall passenger and cargo traffic volume, which is subject to seasonal and other changes in traffic patterns. Our passenger revenues are generally higher in the first and fourth quarters of each year, during the southern hemisphere’s (Chile and Argentina) spring and summer, than in the second and third quarters. Since Peru and Ecuador have different seasonal patterns, the expansion into those markets has led to stronger passenger revenues in the second and third quarters, therefore moderating the overall seasonality of our passenger business. Our cargo revenues generally are higher in the fourth quarter, which correspond to the harvest season in the southern hemisphere.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
A summary of our significant accounting policies is included in Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements. We believe that the consistent application of these policies enables us and our subsidiaries to provide readers of the financial statements with more useful and reliable information about our operating results and financial condition. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. The following are the accounting policies that we believe are the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments.
 
Accounting estimates judgments
 
The Company has used estimates to value and book some of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and commitments; these basically refer to:
 
 
·
The evaluation of possible impairment loss for certain assets.
 
 
·
The useful life and residual value of fixed assets and intangible assets.
 
 
·
The criteria employed in the valuation of certain assets.
 
 
·
Air tickets sold that are not actually used.
 
 
·
The calculation of deferred income at the period-end corresponding to the valuation of kilometers credited to holders of the LANPASS loyalty card which have not yet been used.
 
 
·
The need for provisioning and where required the determination of their values.
 
 
·
The recoverability of deferred tax assets.
 
These estimates are made on the basis of the best information available on the matters analyzed. In any case, it is possible that events will require them to be modified in the future, in which case the effects would be accounted for prospectively.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Revenues include the fair value of the proceeds received or to be received on sales of goods and rendering services in the ordinary course of the Company’s business. Revenues are shown net of refunds, rebates and discounts.
 
(a)           Rendering of services
 
a.1           Passenger and cargo transport
 
We recognize passenger and cargo revenues either when the transportation service is provided or when we determine that the tickets will not be used or refunded, which, in the case of passenger revenues, reduces the air traffic liability. We estimate revenue breakage based on historical breakage experience that takes into account the aging of tickets that will not be used or refunded. Commissions payable related to such unearned earnings are shown net of the air traffic liability.  Other revenues, including aircraft leases, courier, logistic and ground services, duty free sales, and storage and customs brokering, are recognized when services are provided.
 
 
118

 

The amount of passenger ticket sales not yet recognized as revenue is reflected as an air traffic liability. Air traffic liability includes estimates of the amount of future refunds and exchanges, net of forfeitures for all unused tickets once the flight date has passed. We perform periodic evaluations of this estimated liability based on actual results. Any adjustments, which can be significant, are included in the results of operations for the periods in which the evaluations are completed. These adjustments relate primarily to the differences between our estimation of certain revenue transactions and the related sales price, as well as refunds, exchanges and other items for which final settlement occurs in periods subsequent to the sale of the related tickets at amounts other than the original sales price.
 
Actual events and circumstances may differ from historical fare sale activity and customer travel patterns and can result in refunds, exchanges or forfeited tickets differing significantly from estimates. We evaluate our estimates periodically. If actual refunds, exchanges or forfeitures fall outside of our estimated ranges, we review our estimates and assumptions and adjust air traffic liability and passenger revenues as necessary. Our estimation techniques have been consistently applied from year to year and in the last two years, deviations from our estimates did not result in material differences that required adjustments. Nevertheless, as with any estimates, actual results may vary from estimated amounts.
 
a.2           Frequent flyer program
 
The Company has a frequent flyer program called LANPASS, whose objective is customer loyalty through the delivery of kilometers every time that member fly with the Company or its alliance partners, use the services of entities registered with the program or make purchases with an associated credit card. The kilometers earned can be exchanged for flights tickets or other services of associated entities. The consolidated financial statements include liabilities for this concept (deferred income), according to the estimate of the valuation established for the kilometers accumulated pending use at that date, in accordance with IFRIC 13: “Customer loyalty programs”.
 
Property and Equipment
 
The land of Lan Airlines Subsidiaries is recognized at cost less any accumulated impairment loss. The rest of the property, plant and equipment are shown, initially and subsequently, at their historic cost less the corresponding depreciation and any impairment loss, except for certain land and minor equipment that are reassessed at first adoption, according to IFRS.
 
The amount of advance payments to aircraft manufacturers are capitalized by the Company under “Construction in progress” until receipt of aircraft.
 
Subsequent costs (replacement of components, improvements and extensions) are included in the value of the initial asset or shown as a separate asset only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the elements of property, plant and equipment are going to flow to the Company and the cost of such element can be determined reliably. The value of the component replaced is written-off in the books. The rest of the repairs and maintenance are charged to the result of the year in which they are incurred.
 
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives; except in the case of certain technical components, which are depreciated on the basis of cycles and hours flown.
 
The residual value and useful life of assets is revised, and adjusted if necessary, once a year.
 
When the carrying amount of an asset is higher than its estimated recoverable amount, its value is reduced immediately to its recoverable amount. For more information, see Notes 2.8 to our audited consolidated financial statements.
 
Losses and gains on the sale of property, plant and equipment are calculated by comparing the proceeds obtained with the book value and are included in the consolidated statement of income.
 
Maintenance
 
The costs incurred for scheduled major maintenance of aircraft´s fuselage and engines are capitalized and depreciated until the next maintenance. The depreciation rate is determined on technical grounds, according to its use expressed based on cycles and flight hours. Unscheduled maintenances of aircraft and engines are charged to income as incurred.

Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
 
Derivatives are booked initially at fair value on the date the derivative contracts are signed and later they continue to be valued at their fair value. The method for booking the resultant loss or gain depends on whether the derivative has been designated as a hedging instrument and, if so, the nature of the item hedged. The Company designates certain derivatives as:
 
 
(a) 
Hedge of the fair value of recognized assets (“fair value hedge”);
 
 
(b)
Hedge of a identified risk associated with a recognized liability or an expected highly-probable transaction (“cash-flow hedge”); or
 
 
(c) 
Derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting.
 
The Company documents, at the inception of each transaction, the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, as well as its objectives for managing risk and the strategy for carrying out various hedging transaction. The Company also documents its assessment, both at the beginning and on an ongoing basis, as to whether the derivatives used in the hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the items being hedged.
 
The total fair value of the hedging derivatives is booked as an other non-current financial asset or liability if the remaining maturity of the item hedged is over 12 months, and as an other current financial asset or liability if the remaining term of the item hedged is less than 12 months. Derivatives not booked as hedges are classified as other financial assets or liabilities, current in the case that their remaining is less than 12 months and non-current in the case that it is more than 12 months.
 
(a)           Fair value hedges
 
Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as fair value hedges are shown in the consolidated statement of income, together with any change in the fair value of the asset or liability hedged that is attributable to the risk being hedged.
 
(b)           Cash flow hedges
 
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is shown in net equity. The loss or gain relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the consolidated statement of income under “Other gains (losses).”
 
In the case of variable interest-rate hedges, this means that the amounts recognized in equity are reclassified to results within financial cost at the same time the associated debts accrue interest.
 
For fuel price hedges, the amounts shown in equity are reclassified to income as Cost of sales to the extent that the fuel subject to the hedge is used.
 
When hedging instruments mature or are sold or when they do not meet the requirements to be accounted for as hedges, any gain or loss accumulated in net equity until that moment remains in equity and is reclassified to the consolidated statement of income when the hedged transaction is finally recognized. When its is expected that the hedged transaction is no longer going to occur, the gain or loss accumulated in net equity is taken immediately to the consolidated statement of income as “Other gains (losses).”
 
(c)           Derivatives not booked as a hedge
 
Certain derivatives are not booked as a hedge. The changes in fair value of any derivative instrument that is not booked as a hedge are shown immediately in the consolidated statement of income, in “Other gains (losses).”
 
Deferred taxes
 
Deferred taxes are calculated, according to the balance-sheet method, on the temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their book values. However, if the temporary differences arise from the initial recognition of a liability or an asset in a transaction different from a business combinations that at the time of the transaction does not affect the accounting result or the tax gain or loss, they are not booked. The deferred tax is determined using the tax rates (and laws), that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the end of reporting period, and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realized or the deferred tax liability is discharged.

 
120

 

Deferred tax assets are recognized when it is probable that there will be sufficient future tax earnings with which to compensate the temporary differences.
 
Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except for deferred income tax liability where timing of the reversal of the temporary differences is controlled by the group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Our cash and cash equivalents totaled US$631.1 million as of December 31, 2010, US$731.5 million as of December 31, 2009 and US$401.0 million as of December 31, 2008. The decrease in our cash and cash equivalents from 2009 to 2010 was due to higher investment activities partly compensated by higher cash from operations. Cash from operations derives primarily from providing air passenger and cargo transportation to customers. Operating cash outflows are primarily related to the recurring expenses of airline operations. Net cash inflows from operating activities were US$1,125.3 million in 2010, US$845.8 million in 2009 and 631.1 in 2008. Net cash inflows increased $279.5 million from 2009 to 2010 due to higher yields and higher load factors. In recent years, we have been able to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements through cash from our operations. Given the nature of our business, the Company generally benefits from having a positive working capital (cash inflows). We expect to continue generating positive working capital through our operations. However, we cannot predict whether current trends and conditions will continue, or how the effects of competition or other factors that are beyond our control could affect us.
 
We have generally been able to arrange for short-term loans with local Chilean and international banks when we have needed to finance working capital expenditures or increase our liquidity. During the first quarter of 2009, the Board of Directors of the Company approved entering into loans with different local financial institutions for a total of US$250 million in order to increase the Company’s cash position during the global economic crisis. As of December 2009, the Company had borrowed the equivalent of US$252 million in U.S. dollar and Chilean peso denominated facilities. In order to avail itself of U.S. dollar cash flows, the Company entered into cross currency swaps for an equivalent amount of US$171 million. As of February 28, 2011, we maintained US$513 million in short-term credit lines of which US$167.3 million are unused, with both local and foreign banks. These short term credit lines have been used in issuing stand by letters of credit and the obtaining of cash advances included within other financial liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial position. With respect to collateral posting, the company has issued stand-by letters of credit for approximately US$32.7 million as of February 28, 2011.
 
As of December 31, 2010, the cash pledged to financial institutions relating to margin calls on derivative positions was US$78.5 million.
 
Cash capital expenditures were US$1,029.2 million in 2010, US$538.6 million in 2009 and US$779.3 in 2008. The increase in capital expenditures in 2010 was due to the acquisition of higher number of aircraft in 2010.
 
Our capital expenditures for 2010 were mainly composed of:
 
 
·
cash contributions for pre-delivery deposits related to aircraft with deliveries in 2010, 2011 and 2012;
 
 
·
the acquisition of eight Airbus A320 Passenger aircraft and one Boeing B767-300 Passenger aircraft; and
 
 
·
the acquisition of aircraft spare parts and spare engines.
 
 
121

 

Our capital expenditures for 2009 were mainly composed of:
 
 
·
cash contributions for pre-delivery deposits related to aircraft with deliveries in 2009, 2010 and 2011;
 
 
·
the acquisition of three Airbus A319 Passenger aircraft and three Boeing B767-300 Passenger aircraft; and
 
 
·
the acquisition of aircraft spare parts and spare engines.
 
Our capital expenditures for 2008 were mainly composed of:
 
 
·
cash contributions for pre-delivery deposits related to aircraft that will be incorporated into our fleet in 2008, 2009 and 2010;
 
 
·
the acquisition of four Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft, ten Airbus A318 Passenger aircraft, two Airbus A319 and two A320 Passenger aircraft; and
 
 
·
the acquisition of aircraft spare parts and spare engines.
 
For more information about current and future capital expenditures, see “—Capital Expenditures” under this Item 5. The difference between net cash used in investing activities and cash capital expenditures during 2008, 2009 and 2010 relates mainly to the investment in financial instruments and the purchase of our new subsidiary in Colombia, Aires.
 
Net cash outflows from financing activities were US$124.7 million in 2010, compared to net cash inflows of US$99.2 million in 2009 and US$100.4 million in 2008. Such variance was due to an increase in loan payments and higher dividend payments. In 2010, our main uses of cash were US$554.5 million for loan payments, US$155.4 million for dividends payments and US$128.7 million for interest payments. In 2009, our main uses of cash were US$261.7 million for loan payments, US$139.9 million for dividend payments and US$129.3 million for interest payments. In 2008, our main uses of cash were US$222.4 million for dividend payments, US$102.6 million for loan payment and US$81.4 million for interest payments.
 
Our cash and cash equivalents including investment funds and domestic and foreign bonds are mainly held in U.S. dollars or U.S. dollar-based instruments. A fraction (around 16%) of our cash position is held in currencies other than U.S. dollars to fulfill short-term obligations denominated in local currencies.
 
We have contractual obligations and commitments primarily related to the payment of debt, lease arrangements and for the future incorporation of aircraft to our fleet. As of December 31, 2010 we have financed the acquisition of 18 Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft and eight Boeing 767-300 Freighters through bond issuances and syndicated loans provided by international financial institutions with the support of partial guarantees issued by the Ex-Im Bank with repayment profiles of either 12 or 15 years. The Ex-Im Bank guarantees support 85% of the net purchase price and are secured with a first priority mortgage on the aircraft in favor of a security trustee on behalf of Ex-Im Bank. The documentation for each loan follows standard market forms for this type of financing, including standard events of default. We have financed the remaining 15% of the net purchase price with commercial loans or with our own funds. Our Ex-Im Bank supported financings are denominated in U.S. dollars and have quarterly amortizations with a combination of fixed and floating rates linked to U.S. dollar LIBOR. Through the use of interest rate swaps, we have effectively converted a significant portion of our floating rate debt under these loans into fixed rate debt. See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk—Risk of Fluctuations in Interest Rates” under Item 11, for more information. Between 2004 and 2009, LAN sold its ownership in the entities borrowing some of these loans and they were therefore reclassified as financial leases. As of December 31, 2010, the total amount outstanding under our Ex-Im Bank-supported financings totaled US$1,116.0 million.
 
In 2000, in order to finance our Airbus aircraft, we entered into a US$1.3 billion umbrella credit facility with a syndicate of international financial institutions under which we borrowed in the form of separate loans in connection with the specific financing requirements of each Airbus aircraft (including pre-delivery and long-term financings). This umbrella facility provided for guarantees from the English, French and German export credit agencies and contained customary terms for the industry, including standard events of default. Loans under the facility were denominated in U.S. dollars and bore interest at floating rates linked to LIBOR. The majority of these loans were converted into fixed rate loans through interest rate swaps. All the aircraft acquired under this facility were delivered by the end of 2005. In late 2005, we decided to negotiate a US$920 million facility to finance the acquisition of the 32 Airbus A320-Family Aircraft that were received in 2006, 2007, 2008 and in the first quarter of 2009. The new facility, arranged in early 2006, provided us with guarantees from the export credit agencies for 85% of the net purchase price of each aircraft. The remaining 15% of the net purchase price was funded internally. As of March 31, 2009, all the aircraft acquired under this new facility have been delivered and there are no remaining availabilities thereunder.

Our total debt (including capital leases) as of December 31, 2010, was US$3,259.7 million compared to US$3,074.4 million in 2009 and US$2,657.2 million in 2008. The increase in long-term debt during 2010 relates to the incorporation of debt-financed fixed assets. We have minimum lease payment obligations primarily associated with our aircraft leases. As of December 31, 2010, we had 45 aircraft under operating leases (25 which correspond to recent acquired Aires total fleet), and we had minimum lease payment obligations of US$675 million compared to US$444 million as of December 31, 2009 and US$207 as of December 31, 2008. The amount of lease obligations in 2010 includes US$193 million related to Aires’ recently incorporated fleet. The average interest rate of our long-term debt was 5.0% as of December 31, 2010. Of the total debt amount, 94.0% accrues interest at a fixed rate (either through a stated fixed interest rate or through our use of interest rate swap agreements) or is subject to interest rate caps. As of February 28, 2011, we also had purchase obligations for:
 
 
·
15 Airbus A319, 57 Airbus A320, 10 Airbus A321;
 
 
·
9 Boeing 767-300 Passenger aircraft;
 
 
·
2 Boeing 777-200 Freighter aircraft; and
 
 
·
26 Boeing 787 Passenger aircraft;
 
The purchase obligations amount to a combined total of US$7,974.6 million, with delivery between 2011 and 2018.

Trend Information
 
During 2011, we expect to continue seeing positive trends in both passenger and cargo operations driven by strong economic growth and solid demand in the markets we operate after the global crisis that affected markets worldwide during 2009.
 
Currently, fuel supply remains uncertain given the increase in fuel prices and demand. Although fuel supply is key to our business, as it represents approximately 30% of our operating costs, we plan to address the issue of fuel supply through our fuel-hedging policy and the use of pass-through mechanisms for both the passenger and cargo businesses. Specifically, we expect to face:
 
 
·
revenue growth in the passenger business, caused by capacity expansion and an increase in yields resulting mainly from higher demand. We expect to pass through current fuel prices increases to the passenger through the fuel surcharge. During January and February 2011, passenger traffic increased 14.4% compared with the same period in 2010, driven mainly by a strong recovery in international passenger operations, which increased 10.7% as compared to 2010 as well as domestic passenger operations which increased 22.8% in that period. During such period, total passenger capacity increased 13.8%, leading to a 0.4 points increase in load factors - from 82.1% to 82.5%. Capacity expansion was mainly driven by an increase in operations on certain regional routes, as well as routes to the United States and the incorporation of Aires; and
 
 
·
growth in cargo demand, in line with global and regional trends. Growth is expected to be driven by a continued increase in imports to Latin America, mainly to Brazil. Furthermore, we already received three new B767 freighters between November 2010 and January 2011. In June 2010, LAN Cargo also launched domestic cargo operations in Brazil to Recife and Fortaleza through its affiliate, ABSA. During January and February 2011, cargo demand, as measured in RTKs, increased 14.4%, while capacity increased by 16.0%. In turn, the cargo load factor decreased 0.9 points to 66.8%.
 
In 2011, we expect to continue expanding and diversifying our revenue base through the expansion of our network, namely, by further developing our existing routes, adding new destinations, developing new alliances, and entering new markets. For example, during January and February 2011, we received seven Airbus A320 family aircraft designated for domestic and regional passenger operations, and we expect to receive sixteen additional passenger aircraft, thirteen Airbus A320 family aircraft and three Boeing 767-300 aircraft, that are designated for international long-haul passenger operations during the remainder of 2011.
 
In the cargo business, we will continue adjusting our routes and our capacity mix to adapt to changing cargo flows and to take advantage of expansion opportunities. During 2011, we intend to expand our Boeing 767 Freighter operation between Latin America and the United States.

 
124

 

We continue to maintain significant flexibility to adjust the physical size of our fleet. Between 2012 and 2014, we will have thirteen operating lease expirations (including Japanese operating leases) in our wide-body passenger fleet, which can be terminated without cost. Furthermore, during 2010 part of our Boeing 767 fleet began to be fully paid for, providing us with additional flexibility.
 
We also intend to make our cost structure more efficient and to offset decreases in demand with more efficient asset utilization, and we aim to enhance efficiency by streamlining our support processes, reducing commercial costs, continuing to implement our new business model for short-haul operations, and implementing the LEAN system in our processes.
 
We expect jet fuel prices to continue being volatile in 2011, but will continue using fuel hedging programs and fuel surcharge mechanisms in both the passenger and cargo businesses to help minimize the impact of short-term movements in crude oil prices. For instance, as of February 28, 2011 we have hedged approximately 54.0% of our estimated fuel requirements for the first quarter 2011, 74.8% for the second quarter, 19.2% for the third quarter, and 8.4% for the fourth quarter. These hedging instruments are comprised of a combination of collars and swaps at an average price of approximately US$84.4 per barrel.
 
Capital Expenditures
 
Our capital expenditures are related to the acquisition of aircraft, aircraft-related equipment, IT equipment, support infrastructure and the funding of pre-delivery deposits. Net cash flow used in investment activities totaled US$1029.2 million in 2010, US$538.6 million in 2009 and US$779.3 in 2008. The increase in capital expenditure is explained by a higher number of aircraft acquired during 2010 and higher expenditure in pre-delivery deposits.
 
The following chart sets forth our estimate, as of February 28, 2011, of our future capital expenditures for 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015:

(1)
Pre-delivery payments (inflows are presented as after the delivery of the aircraft is made, the manufacturer refunds the pdp’s to LAN).
(2)
Includes expenditures on spare engines and parts, information technology and other expenditures. The Company plans to finance these expenditures through approximately 15% internally generated funds and 85% through guaranteed facilities with third party international financial institutions.
 
The expenditures set out in the table above reflect payments for purchases and other fleet-related items, as well as for information technology and other items. See “Business of the Company — Fleet” under Item 4 above. Principally, we have projected our capital expenditures based on:
 
 
·
the delivery of 17 Airbus A320-Family Aircraft in 2011, 13 in 2012, 15 in 2013, 15 in 2014, 15 in 2015 and 12 in 2016;
 
 
·
the delivery of three Boeing B767-300 Passenger aircraft in 2011, six in 2012.
 
 
·
the delivery of two Boeing 777 Freighter aircraft in 2012;
 
 
·
the delivery of seven Boeing 787-8 passenger aircraft in 2012, five in 2013 and ten between 2014 and 2018.
 
 
125

 

 
·
the delivery of four Boeing 787-9 passenger aircraft in 2015.
 
 
·
the implementation of a new host system as a part of a three year capital expenditure plan, totaling approximately US$70 million; and
 
 
·
Costs related to the startup of new operations in the region under LAN’s standards.
 
We expect that cash generated from operations, short-term credit-lines and long-term syndicated loans with various banks will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements in the foreseeable future, although events that materially affect our operating results could also have a negative impact on our liquidity.
 
Credit Card Receivables Securitization
 
We have raised a total of US$100.0 million through two similar transactions involving the private placement of certificates backed by our credit card receivables. In these transactions, we sold our right to receive certain present and future U.S. dollar payment obligations, referred to as future credit card receivables, arising from the purchase of passenger tickets and related services in the United States through American Express, Diners Club, Discover, Visa and MasterCard to Pelican Finance Ltd. (“Pelican”). In the first transaction, completed in March 1999, we sold US$60.0 million of our future credit card receivables to Pelican which then issued notes to a United States trust, backed by payments received on these payment obligations, which in turn issued trust certificates, backed by payments received on the notes, to investors. This transaction had a term of seven years and our sale of these receivables authorized Pelican to collect payments on them until March 2006. We utilized this securitization facility to pay down our short-term debt. Final payment for this transaction was made in June 2006. In August 2002, we entered into a similar sale of future credit card receivables to Pelican for an additional US$40.0 million. This transaction had a term of seven years, with a four-year grace period on principal payments. Our sale of these receivables authorized Pelican to collect payments on them until the earlier of the date the notes issued by Pelican were fully redeemed and August 2009. We utilized this securitization facility to improve our liquidity. Final payments for this transaction were made on June 30, 2009.
 
As of February 28, 2011, LAN has no securitization agreement in place.
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of December 31, 2010 the Company had aircraft and aircraft engines under operating leases. These operating leases provide us with great flexibility to adjust to any demand volatility that may affect the airline industry and therefore we consider such arrangements to be of great value.
 
Under the aforementioned operating leases, LAN is responsible for all maintenance, insurance and other costs associated with operating these aircraft. The Company has not made any residual value or similar guarantees to our lessors. There are certain guarantees and indemnities to other unrelated parties that are not reflected on the Company’s balance sheet, but we believe that these will not have a significant impact on our results of operations or financial condition.
 
The Company operates 17 aircraft under a financing structure called Japanese Operating Lease (“JOL”). This method involves the creation of a special purpose entity that acquires aircraft with bank and third party financing. Under IFRS, these aircraft are shown in the consolidated statement of financial position as part of “Property, plant and equipment” and the corresponding debt is shown as a liability.
 
Revenues from aircraft under operating leases account for approximately 11.6% of the total revenues of the Company.
 
As of February 28, 2011 we are not aware of any event, lawsuit, commitment, trend or uncertainty that may result in, or is reasonably likely to result in, the termination of the operating leases. See Note 37 to our audited consolidated financial statements for a more detailed discussion of these commitments.

Board of Directors’ Committee and Audit Committee
 
Pursuant to Chilean Corporation Law, as amended by Law No. 19,705, Lan Airlines must have a board of directors’ committee composed of no less than three board members. Lan Airlines has established a three-person committee of its board of directors, which, among other duties, is responsible for:
 
 
·
examining the reports of Lan Airlines’ external auditors, the balance sheets and other financial statements submitted by Lan Airlines’ administrators to the shareholders, and issuing an opinion with respect thereto prior to their presentation to the shareholders for their approval;
 
 
·

Under Chilean law we are required, to the extent possible, to appoint a majority of independent directors to the board of directors committee. The corresponding independence requirements are set forth in Chilean Corporation Law, as amended by Law No. 19,705, and relate to the relationship between the directors and the shareholders that control a corporation. A director is considered independent when he or she can be elected regardless of the voting of the controlling shareholders.
 
Pursuant to U.S. regulations, we are required to have an audit committee of at least three board members, which complies with the independence requirements set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Given the similarity in the functions that must be performed by our Board of Directors’ Committee and the audit committee, our Board of Directors’ Committee serves as our Audit Committee for purposes of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act.
 
As of February 28, 2011, all of the members of our Board of Directors’ Committee, which also serves as our Audit Committee, were independent under Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. As of February 28, 2011, the committee members were Mr. Jorge Awad Mehech, Mr. Gerardo Jofré Miranda and Mr. Ramón Eblen Kadis. We pay each member of the committee 32 UFs per meeting.

LAN’s acquisition of Aires in November 2010 provided an additional 1,319 employees to the Company’s total number of employees. By the end of 2010, approximately 54% of our employees worked in Chile, 44% in other Latin American countries and 2% in the rest of the world.
 
We have a performance-related pay structure for our administrative, management and flight personnel (such as cabin crew members, airport and sales agents, call-center employees, and some back office employees) including performance-based bonuses and pay scales that reward foreign language proficiency among counter, technical and administrative personnel. During 2010, over 94% of our employees were eligible to receive performance related bonus payments that are linked to personal, team and corporate performance.
 
We provide our employees with medical insurance complementary to the coverage of the private health system, and also grant other benefits, such as free and discounted airline tickets, to our permanent employees.

Training
 
Some of our employees, such as the flight operations, maintenance and customer ground operations personnel undergo training when they join the Company and throughout their employment with us. For this training, we invested US$12.6 million in 2008, US$12.5 million in 2009 and US$13.7 million in 2010. We generally recruit our pilots from the Academia de Ciencias Aeronáuticas (at the Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María), aeroclubs and the armed forces. Before being promoted to the position of captain, first officers must have logged at least 4,000 flight hours and received the approval of a special pilots’ committee. We provide ground-school training in Santiago, as well as in Lima and Quito for our Peruvian and Ecuadorian crews. We maintain an agreement with CAE (a Canadian firm specializing in flight simulators and training centers) to develop a pilot training center in Santiago de Chile. This training center includes two Airbus A320 and one Boeing 767 Full Flight simulators plus 1 MFTD A320/340 simulator. Our pilot staff also receives simulator training at sites in the United States and Brazil.
 
Our pilots are rated for only one aircraft type by local aeronautical authorities, and they are not cross-qualified between two or more aircraft types. Chilean regulations require pilots to be licensed as commercial pilots for a first officer position and as an airline transport pilot for a captain position, with specific type, function and special ratings for each aircraft to be flown, and to be medically certified as physically fit. Licenses and medical certifications are subject to periodic reevaluation, including flight simulator recurrent training, ground recurrent training, annual emergency procedures training, safety and security training and recent flying experience. Our pilots receive a variety of training, such as lectures, simulations and gaming and computer based training. Cabin crew must have initial and periodic competency fitness training.
 
Aircraft mechanics and maintenance supervisory personnel must be licensed by the DGAC and other corresponding authorities in other countries in which we operate. We train our technicians (Mechanics, Specialists, Inspectors and Maintenance Supervisors) in all programs required by both local authority (DGAC) and international authorities and aviation associations, such as the FAA, the European Aviation Safety Agency (“EASA”), IATA rules and regulations, those required by aircraft manufacturers and the training needs that we identify during our annual reviews. The program of study contains initial and continuing training. Initial training is level III ATA SPEC 104 and lasts forty to fifty days depending on the aircraft types and continuing training lasts up to five to six days.
 
During 2010, we continued training sales and administrative personnel in areas such as service and sales quality. We also continued delivering learning programs to develop leadership skills and others with different methodologies including e-learning.
 
Labor Relations
 
We have negotiated longer-term labor contracts with the labor unions in anticipation of their scheduled expirations, which under Chilean law are limited to a period of four years. In general, the expiration of our labor agreements with the several unions that represent our pilots and other personnel are staggered in a way that we avoid being in the position of having to renegotiate contract terms with substantially all of our pilots or other personnel at the same time.
 
Two collective contracts are in place between Lan Airlines and its pilots, both through the pilots’ union. Non-unionized pilots (less than 5% of the pilot corps), have the same benefits, through direct extension of the union’s collective agreement. These contracts were negotiated in February 2009 and expire between August 2012 and January 2013. Lan Cargo is also a party to an employment agreement with its pilots that expires in November 2012. Finally, Lan Express has two collective agreements with its pilots, both unionized and non-unionized. Those contracts expire between September and December 2012.
 
Lan Airlines and its affiliates have also entered into collective bargaining agreements (CBAs) with many of their employees:
 
LAN entered into a CBA covering the majority of its flight attendants that will likely be renegotiated in the second quarter of 2011.
 
Lan Airlines renewed the CBAs with its maintenance personnel in June 2008 for a period of four years. On March 30, 2011, the collective bargaining agreement with maintenance personnel working for Lan Express, one of LAN’s Chilean subsidiaries, was renewed until March 31, 2015.

 
133

 

LAN’s CBA with the union representing our administrative personnel expires in July 2013, but the CBA with Lan Express, administrative personnel expires in April of the same year.
 
The majority of Lan Argentina’s employees belong to industry-wide unions. Currently, labor relations are stable. In 2005, Lan Argentina hired employees from another airline and agreed to maintain their employment conditions and labor stability during a three-year period. The conditions and labor relations that Lan Argentina had to maintain expired on September 2008, a situation that did not generate any conflict for the company. In December 2009, salary agreements were finalized with the five unions in Lan Argentina. These agreements expired on September 2010 and were renewed until September 2011. The three remaining collective agreements (Land personnel, Hierarchical Personnel and Cabin Crew) also expired.
 
In Lan Peru and Lan Ecuador, meanwhile, the employment relationship is smooth and stable. With respect to Lan Ecuador, there is a collective agreement in force since October 2010 with Pilots (non-union), whose duration is 3 years and 6 months. The only union that exists in this country is the Cabin Crew. It still has no legal authority to negotiate collective agreements with the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company maintains a relationship with the union continuing to address issues of common interest and welfare. As for Lan Peru, in 2010 negotiated a collective agreement with the union of technical and mechanical, with a duration of 4 years. The next collective bargaining with the union will Pilots, 2012.
 
We believe we generally maintain good relations with our employees and the unions, and expect to continue to enjoy good relations with our employees and the unions in the future. We also believe that we have built a solid base among our employees that will support and facilitate our growth plans. We can provide no assurance, however, that our employee compensation arrangements may not be subject to change or modification after the expiration of the contracts currently in effect, or that we will not be subject to labor-related disruptions due to strikes, stoppages or walk-outs.

As of February 28, 2011, the Cueto Group controlled the Company. The Cueto Group is comprised by Mr. Juan Cueto Sierra, Mr. Juan José Cueto Plaza, Mr. Ignacio Cueto Plaza, Mr. Enrique Cueto Plaza and certain other family members.
 
Beginning in the first quarter of 2010, the Piñera Group (which was comprised by Mr. Sebastián Piñera Echenique and certain members of his family), which owned 26.3% of the voting common shares as of December 31, 2009, commenced to sell its ownership of the Company after Mr. Sebastián Piñera Echenique was elected as the new president of Chile.
 
On March 9, 2010, the Cueto Group acquired an 8.6% stake of the Company from the Piñera Group. As a result of this transaction, the shareholders agreement between the two groups was terminated.
 
In addition, the Piñera Group sold 9.8% of the Company through two auctions in the Santiago Stock Exchange, which took place on February 25, 2010 and on March 25, 2010, respectively.
 
Finally, on March 24, 2010, the Piñera Group signed an agreement to sell an additional 8.0% stake in the Company to Bethia S.A.
 
As a result of the above, the Cueto Group controls the Company. As of February 28, 2011, the Cueto Group owned 34.01% of the voting common shares. This Controlling Shareholder is entitled to elect a four of the nine members of our board of directors and is in a position to direct the management of the Company.
 
As of February 28, 2011, a second shareholder group, which includes our director Ramón Eblen Cádiz, owned 9.37% of our common shares. Also Bethia Group, which includes our director Carlos Heller Solari, owned 7.99% of LAN’s common shares.

On July 6, 2007, the Superintendencia de Valores y Seguros (“SVS”) fined Juan José Cueto Plaza 1,620 UF (approximately US$58,000) in connection with the purchase of Shares that he carried out through Inversiones Mineras del Cantábrico on July 24, 2006. The SVS considered that such purchase had breached an obligation not to acquire Shares until the financial statements of the company became publicly available, in alleged violation of Article 165, paragraph 1 of Law No.18,045 of October 22, 1981. The SVS ruled that, although Mr. Cueto had not used any privileged information, LAN’s financial statements should be considered to be privileged information per se, and thus, created a duty to abstain from trading the securities prior to the disclosure of the financial statements. On July 26, 2007 Juan José Cueto filed an appeal of this fine before the 27° Civil Court of Santiago, which was dismissed on January 8, 2009. The defense of Mr. Cueto filed two legal recourses against the first dismissal, which were rejected by the Court of Appeals of Santiago on March 8, 2010. Against this second dismissal Juan José Cueto filed two additional and separate legal recourses, which as of this date are pending before the Supreme Court of Chile. A final decision is pending.
 
As of February 28, 2011, investors outside of Chile held 4.41% of our capital stock in the form of ADSs, Chilean pension funds held 13.2% of our capital stock and other minority investors held 31% in the form of common shares. It is not practicable for us to determine the number of ADSs or common shares beneficially owned in the United States. As of February 28, 2011, we had 1,508 record holders of our common shares. It is not practicable for us to determine the portion of shares held in Chile or the number of record holders in Chile.
 
All of our shareholders have identical voting rights.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Other Financial Information
 
Legal and Arbitration Proceedings
 
We are involved in routine litigation and other proceedings relating to the ordinary course of our business.
 
In February 2006 the European Commission (“EC”), in conjunction with the Department of Justice of the United States (“DOJ”), initiated a global investigation of a large number of international cargo airlines (among them Lan Cargo, LAN’s cargo subsidiary) for possible price fixing of cargo fuel surcharges and other fees in the European and United States air cargo markets. On December 26, 2007, the European competition authorities notified Lan Cargo and LAN of the initiation of proceedings against twenty-five cargo airlines, among them Lan Cargo, for allegations of anti-competitive behavior in the airfreight business.
 
On January 21, 2009, Lan Cargo announced that it had reached a plea agreement with the DOJ in relation to the DOJ’s ongoing investigation regarding price fixing of fuel surcharges and other fees for cargo shipments. Under the plea agreement, Lan Cargo agreed to pay a fine of US$88 million. In addition, ABSA also reached a plea agreement with the DOJ and agreed to pay a fine of US$21 million. These amounts were stipulated to be paid over a five-year payment schedule starting in 2009. As of December 31, 2010, the pending amount to be paid during the next four years is approximately US$72 million and has been recorded within “Other Accounts Payable.”
 
On November 9, 2010 the EC imposed fines to 11 air carriers for a toatal amount of €800 million (equivalent to approximately US$1.1 billion). The fine imposed against Lan Cargo and its parent company, LAN Airlines, totaled €8.2 million (equivalent to approximately US$ 10.9 million). The Company provisioned US$25 million during the fourth quarter of 2007 for such fines, and maintained this provision until the fine was imposed in 2010. This was the lowest fine applied by the European Commission, which includes a significant reduction due to the Company’s cooperation with the Commission during the course of the investigation. In accordance with European Union law, on January 24, 2011 this administrative decision was appealed by Lan Cargo and Lan Airlines to the General Court in Luxembourg. Any judgment by the General Court may also be appealed to the Court of Justice of the European Union.
 
As of December 31, 2010 the Company recorded a US$14.0 million gain (pre-tax) due to the reversal of a portion of the provision related to the investigation in the cargo business carried out by the European Commission. This was as a result of the fine announced in November 2010, which was lower than the amount provided for. This reversal is recorded in Other gains/(losses).
 
The investigation by the DOJ prompted the filing of numerous civil class actions by freight forwarding and shipping companies against many airlines, including Lan Cargo and Lan Airlines, including fifty-four in the United States. The cases filed in the United States were consolidated in the United States District Court, Eastern District of New York and the original complaint was subsequently amended to include additional airlines, including ABSA. In February 2006 the Canadian Competition Bureau (“CCB”), in conjunction with the DOJ, initiated a global investigation of a large number of international cargo airlines (among them Lan Cargo) for possible price fixing of cargo fuel surcharges and other fees in the Canadian air cargo markets. The CCB’s investigation prompted the filing of four separate civil class actions by freight forwarding and shipping companies against many airlines, including Lan Cargo and Lan Airlines in Canada. Given the current stage of the both proceedings, it is not possible at this time to anticipate with any precision the outcome of the civil actions filed against Lan Cargo.

On April 5, 2008, Brazilian authorities notified ABSA of the initiation of administrative proceedings before the Conselho Administrativo de Defesa Econômica (the Brazilian Antitrust Authority) against several cargo airlines and airline officers, among them ABSA, for allegations of anticompetitive practices regarding fuel surcharges in the air cargo business. Given the current stage of the proceedings, it is not possible at this time to anticipate with any precision the outcome of the civil actions filed against Lan Cargo, although it is expected to be a lengthy process.
 
In June 2008, the Korean Fair Trade Commission notified LAN of an investigation into the air cargo industry and its non-compliance with the Monopoly Regulation and Fair Trade Act and has requested information and documentation from LAN, which LAN duly submitted. On May 26, 2010 the Korean Fair Trade Commission announced the imposition of penalties against 29 other airlines and excluded LAN from further investigation.
 
The New Zealand Commerce Commission also initiated an investigation into potential anti-competitive activities in the international air cargo markets and requested information and documentation from LAN, which LAN duly submitted. On December 15, 2008, the New Zealand Commerce Commission announced it would focus its investigation on ten airlines and excluded LAN from further investigation.
 
In January 2007, we announced that we had provided, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Atlantic Aviation Investments LLC (“AAI”), a total of US$17.1 million in financing to Brazilian company VRG LINHAS AEREAS S.A. (“New Varig”), convertible into shares of New Varig. On March 28, 2007, GOL announced that it was acquiring 100% of the equity participation in New Varig. Pursuant to the terms of the relevant loan agreements, upon the sale of New Varig to GOL, we sought repayment of the principal of the loans plus interest from Varig Logística S.A. (“VarigLog”), the parent company of New Varig. VarigLog failed to respond to our demands for repayment and we subsequently filed a lawsuit in New York State court on August 29, 2007, seeking repayment of the outstanding principal plus interest. On October 10, 2008, the Court granted summary judgment in our favor for the full principal amount of the loans, US$17.1 million and entered a final judgment on December 1, 2008. The Court also held that AAI was entitled to collect the interest due under the loan agreement along with reasonable attorneys’ fees. After a hearing, a special referee appointed by the Court to decide the issue recommended that AAI recover US$1.9 million in accrued interest and attorneys’ fees, and the Court approved that recommendation. VarigLog appealed that decision, and the decision was upheld. On March 3, 2009, VarigLog filed an insolvency proceeding (recuperação judicial) before the bankruptcy court in Brazil, and on March 31, 2009, VarigLog filed a Chapter 15 petition in bankruptcy court in Florida seeking recognition of its Brazilian filing. The Florida court has entered an order, based upon AAI’s stipulation with VarigLog pursuant to which there would be no stay against the continuation and commencement of legal actions by AAI against VarigLog and any of its affiliates but AAI would not be able take any action against two discreet VarigLog assets located in the United States. AAI continues its enforcement efforts to recover the amounts owed to it by VarigLog under the loan agreements.
 
In July 2009, as a result of VarigLog’s continued failure to repay the amount owed to AAI, we instituted a second lawsuit in New York State court against MatlinPatterson Global Advisers LLC, MatlinPatterson Global Opportunities Partners II LP, MatlinPatterson Global Opportunities (Cayman) II LP and Volo Logistics LLC (collectively, the “MP Entities”), seeking to hold them liable as the alter egos of VarigLog and asserting separate contract-based claims related to AAI’s loans to VarigLog. If AAI succeeds in its alter ego claim, the MP Entities would be liable for VarigLog’s debts, and obligated to repay what VarigLog has been adjudged to owe AAI by the prior decisions of the New York courts. The Court denied in large part the MP Entities motion to dismiss AAI’s complaint on April 23, 2010. Thereafter, the MP Entities answered AAI’s complaint and filed counter-claims against AAI and its direct and indirect parents, LAN Pax Group S.A. (“LAX Pax”) and LAN Airlines S.A. (“LAN Airlines”), seeking declaratory relief and damages for breach of contract and tortuous interference with contract. AAI and LAN Airlines moved to dismiss the counterclaims and the Court heard oral argument on January 13, 2011, but has yet to announce its decision. AAI also moved for summary judgment on its breach of contract claims against the MP Entities and is awaiting the Court’s decision. The discovery phase of this case is ongoing.
 
During 2009, two antitrust administrative investigations were initiated against our subsidiary in Ecuador, and conducted before the Undersecretary of Competition and Consumer Defense (Subsecretaría de la Competencia y Defensa del Consumidor) of the Ministry of Industries and Productivity (Ministerio de Industrias y Productividad), arising from the introductory fares offered by Aerolane for its Guayaquil-Quito and Quito-Guayaquil routes. The first proceeding was initiated on April 7, 2009, following a request by Aerogal alleging predatory pricing. The second proceeding was initiated on April 20, 2009, following a request by Tame (an Ecuadorian airline) based on similar allegations. Based on the absence of legal basis and on the evidence that Aerolane had complied with the regulation currently in place in Ecuador, on June 29, 2010, both investigations were disregarded.

Dividend Policy
 
In accordance with the Chilean Corporation Law, Lan Airlines must distribute cash dividends equal to at least 30% of its annual consolidated net income calculated in accordance with IFRS, unless otherwise decided by a unanimous vote of the holders of all issued shares and unless and except to the extent it has accumulated losses. If there is no net income in a given year, Lan Airlines can elect but is not legally obligated to distribute dividends out of retained earnings. The board of directors may declare interim dividends out of profits earned during such interim period. Pursuant to Lan Airlines’ by-laws, the annual cash dividend is approved by the shareholders at the annual ordinary shareholders’ meeting held between February 1 and April 30 of the year following the year with respect to which the dividend is proposed. All outstanding common shares are entitled to share equally in all dividends declared by Lan Airlines, unless the shares have not been fully paid by the shareholder after being subscribed.
 
Holders of ADSs will be entitled to receive dividends on the underlying common shares to the same extent as holders of common shares. Holders of ADRs on the applicable record dates will be entitled to receive dividends paid on the common shares represented by the ADSs evidenced by such ADRs. Dividends payable to holders of ADSs will be paid by us to the depositary in Chilean pesos and remitted by the depositary to such holders net of foreign currency conversion fees and expenses of the depositary and will be subject to Chilean withholding tax currently imposed at a rate of 35% (subject to credits in certain cases as described under “Chilean Taxation—Cash Dividends and Other Distributions” under Item 10). Owners of the ADSs will not be charged any dividend remittance fee by the depositary with respect to cash dividends.
 
Chilean law requires that holders of shares of Chilean companies that are not residents of Chile register as foreign investors under one of the foreign investment regimes established by Chilean law in order to have dividends, sale proceeds or other amounts with respect to their shares remitted outside Chile through the Formal Exchange Market (Mercado Cambiario Formal). Under our Foreign Investment Contract, the depositary, on behalf of ADS holders, will be granted access to the Formal Exchange Market to convert cash dividends from pesos to U.S. dollars and to pay such U.S. dollars to ADS holders outside Chile.

Trading
 
The Chilean stock market, which is regulated by the SVS under Law 18,045 of October 22, 1981, as amended, which we refer to as the Securities Market Law, is one of the most developed among emerging markets, reflecting the particular economic history and development of Chile. The Chilean government’s policy of privatizing state-owned companies, implemented during the 1980s, led to an expansion of private ownership of shares, resulting in an increase in the importance of stock markets. Privatization extended to the social security system, which was converted into a privately managed pension fund system. These pension funds have been allowed, subject to certain limitations, to invest in stocks and are currently major investors in the stock market. Some market participants, including pension fund administrators, are highly regulated with respect to investment and remuneration criteria, but the general market is less regulated than the U.S. market with respect to disclosure requirements and information usage.

The Santiago Stock Exchange is Chile’s principal exchange and accounts for approximately 86.23% of securities traded in Chile. Approximately 13.36% of equity trading is conducted on the Chilean Electronic Stock Exchange, an electronic trading market created by banks and non-member brokerage houses. The remaining equity trading is conducted on the Valparaíso Stock Exchange.
 
Equities, closed-end funds, fixed-income securities, short-term and money market securities, gold and U.S. dollars are traded on the Santiago Stock Exchange. In 1991, the Santiago Stock Exchange initiated a futures market with two instruments: U.S. dollar futures and Selective Shares Price Index, or IPSA, futures. Securities are traded primarily through an open voice auction system; a firm offers system or daily auctions. Trading through the open voice system occurs on each business day between 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The Santiago Stock Exchange has an electronic system of trade, called Telepregón, which operates continuously for stocks trading in high volumes from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The Chilean Electronic Stock Exchange operates continuously from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (or 5:30 p.m., depending on the period of the year) on each business day. In February 2000, the Santiago Stock Exchange Off-Shore Market began operations. In the Off-Shore Market, publicly offered foreign securities are traded and quoted in U.S. dollars.

Memorandum and Articles of Association
 
Set forth below is information concerning our share capital and a brief summary of certain significant provisions of our by-laws and Chilean law. This description contains all material information concerning the common shares but does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to our by-laws, the Chilean Corporation Law and the Securities Market Law, each referred to below. For additional information regarding the common shares, reference is made to our by-laws, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 1.1 to this annual report on Form 20-F.
 
Organization and Register
 
Lan Airlines is a publicly held stock corporation (sociedad anónima abierta) incorporated under the laws of Chile. Lan Airlines was incorporated by a public deed dated December 30, 1983, an abstract of which was published in the Chilean Official Gazette (Diario Oficial de la República de Chile) No. 31.759 on December 31, 1983, and registered on page 20,341, No. 11,248 of the Chilean Real Estate and Commercial Registrar (Registro de Comercio del Conservador de Bienes Raices y Comercio de Santiago) for the year 1983. Our corporate purpose, as stated in our by-laws, is to provide a broad range of transportation and related services, as more fully set forth in Article Four thereof.
 
General
 
Shareholders’ rights in a Chilean company are generally governed by the company’s by-laws and the Chilean Corporation Law. Article 22 of the Chilean Corporation Law states that the purchaser of shares of a company implicitly accepts its by-laws and any prior agreements adopted at shareholders’ meetings. Additionally, the Chilean Corporation Law regulates the government and operation of corporations (“sociedades anónimas,” or S.A.) and provides for certain shareholder rights. Article 137 of the Chilean Corporation Law provides that the provisions of the Chilean Corporation Law take precedence over any contrary provision in a corporation’s by-laws. The Chilean Corporation Law and our by-laws also provide that all disputes arising among shareholders in their capacity as such or between us or our administrators and the shareholders may either be submitted to arbitration in Chile or to the courts of Chile at the election of the plaintiff initiating the action. Despite the foregoing a recent legal amendment has forbidden certain individuals (directors, senior managers, administrators and main executives of the corporation, and any shareholder that directly or indirectly holds shares whose book or market value exceed 5,000 UF at the moment of filing of the action) from submitting such action before the ordinary courts, thus obligating them to proceed with arbitration in all situations.. Finally, Decree-Law No. 3,500 on Pension Fund Administrators, which allows pension funds to invest in the stock of qualified corporations, indirectly affects corporate governance and prescribes certain rights of shareholders. The Chilean Corporation Law sets forth the rules and requirements under which a corporation is deemed to be “publicly held.” Article 2 of the Chilean Corporation Law defines publicly held corporations as corporations that register their shares with the Registro de Valores (Securities Registry) of the SVS, either voluntarily or pursuant to a legal obligation. In addition, Article 5 of the Chilean Securities Market Law indicates which corporation’s shares must be registered with the Securities Registry:

 
140

 

 
·
one with 500 or more shareholders; and
 
 
·
one in which 100 or more shareholders own at least 10% of the subscribed capital (excluding any direct or indirect individual holdings exceeding 10%).
 
The framework of the Chilean securities market is regulated by the SVS under the Securities Market Law and the Chilean Corporation Law, which imposes certain disclosure requirements, restricts insider trading, prohibits price manipulation and protects minority investors. In particular, the Securities Market Law establishes requirements for public offerings, stock exchanges and brokers and outlines disclosure requirements for corporations that issue publicly offered securities.
 
Ownership Restrictions
 
Under Articles 12 and 20 of the Securities Market Law and Circular 289 issued by the SVS in 2009, certain information regarding transactions in shares of publicly held corporations must be reported to the SVS and the Chilean stock exchanges on which the shares are listed. Since the ADRs are deemed to represent the shares underlying the ADSs, transactions in ADRs will be subject to those reporting requirements. Among other matters, the beneficial owners of ADSs that directly or indirectly hold 10% or more of the subscribed capital of Lan Airlines, or that reach or exceed such percentage through an acquisition, are required to report to the SVS and the Chilean stock exchanges, the day following the event:
 
 
·
any acquisition or sale of shares; and
 
 
·
any acquisition or sale of contracts or securities the price or performance of which depends on the price variation of the Lan Airlines’ shares.
 
These obligations are extended (i) to certain individuals (immediate family, next of kin and others) if the ADSs holder is a natural person; (ii) to any entity controlled by the holder, if the ADSs is an legal entity,; and (iii) to groups, if a holder has any joint action agreement with other holders and the group reaches or exceeds the cited threshold.
 
In addition, majority shareholders must state in their report whether their purpose is to acquire control of the company or if they are making a financial investment.
 
Under Article 54 of the Securities Market Law and under SVS regulations, persons or entities that intend to acquire control, whether directly or indirectly, of a publicly traded company, must follow certain notice requirements, regardless of the acquisition vehicle or procedure or whether the acquisition will be made through direct subscriptions or private transactions. In the first place, the potential acquiror must first send a written communication to the target corporation, any companies controlling or controlled by the target corporation, the SVS and the Chilean stock exchanges on which the target’s securities are listed, stating, among other things, the person or entity purchasing or selling and the price and conditions of any negotiations. Subsequently, the potential acquiror must also inform the public of its planned acquisition by means of a publication in two Chilean newspapers with national distribution and by uploading such notice to the acquiror’s website, if available. Both requirements shall be met at least ten business days prior to the date on which the acquisition transaction is to close, and in any event, as soon as negotiations regarding the change of control have been formalized or when confidential information or documents concerning the target are delivered to the potential acquiror. The notices must state, among other things, the person or entity purchasing or selling and the price and conditions of any negotiations.

 
141

 

In addition to the foregoing, Article 54A of the Securities Market Law requires that within two business days of the completion of the transactions pursuant to which a person has acquired control of a publicly traded company, a notice shall be published in the same newspapers in which the notice referred to above was published and notices shall be sent to the same persons mentioned in the preceding paragraphs.
 
Consequently, a beneficial owner of ADSs intending to acquire control of Lan Airlines will be subject to the foregoing reporting requirements.
 
The provisions of the aforementioned articles do not apply whenever the acquisition is being made through a tender or exchange offer.
 
Title XXV of the Securities Market Law on tender offers and SVS regulations provide that the following transactions shall be carried out through a tender offer:
 
 
·
an offer which allows to take control of a publicly traded company, unless the shares are being sold by a controlling shareholder of such company at a price in cash which is not substantially higher than the market price and the shares of such company are actively traded on a stock exchange;
 
 
·
an offer for all the outstanding shares of a publicly traded company upon acquiring two-thirds or more of its voting shares (this offer must be made at a price not lower than the price at which appraisal rights may be exercised, that is, book value if the shares of the company are not actively traded or, if the shares of the company are actively traded, the weighted average price at which the stock has been traded during the two months immediately preceding the acquisition); and
 
 
·
an offer for a controlling percentage of the shares of a publicly traded company if the acquiror intends to take control of the company (whether publicly-traded or privately held) controlling such publicly traded company, to the extent that the latter represents 75.0% or more of the consolidated net assets of the former.
 
Article 200 of the Securities Market Law prohibits any shareholder that has taken control of a publicly traded company from acquiring, for a period of twelve months from the date of the transaction that granted it control of the publicly traded company, a number of shares equal to or higher than 3.0% of the outstanding issued shares of the target without making a tender offer at a price per share not lower than the price paid at the time of taking control. Should the acquisition from the other shareholders of the company be made on the floor of a stock exchange and on a pro rata basis, the controlling shareholder may purchase a higher percentage of shares, if so permitted by the regulations of the stock exchange.
 
Title XV of the Securities Market Law sets forth the basis for determining what constitutes a controlling power, a direct holding and a related party.
 
Capitalization
 
Under Chilean law, the shareholders of a company, acting at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting, have the power to authorize an increase in the company’s share capital. When an investor subscribes issued shares, the shares are registered in that investor’s name even without payment, and the investor is treated as a shareholder for all purposes except with regard to receipt of dividends and return of capital, provided that the shareholders may, by amending the by-laws, also grant the right to receive dividends of distribution of capital despite not having paid for the subscribed shares. The investor becomes eligible to receive dividends once it has paid for the shares, or, if it has paid for only a portion of such shares, it is entitled to receive a corresponding pro rata portion of the dividends declared with respect to such shares, unless the company’s by-laws provide otherwise. If an investor does not pay for shares for which it has subscribed on or prior to the date agreed upon for payment, the company is entitled under Chilean law to auction the shares on the appropriate stock exchange, and it has a cause of action against the investor to recover the difference between the subscription price and the price received for the sale of those shares at auction. However, until such shares are sold at auction, the investor continues to exercise all the rights of a shareholder (except the right to receive dividends and return of capital, as noted above). Regarding shares issued but not paid for within the period determined by the extraordinary shareholders’ meeting for their payment (which period cannot exceed three years from the date of such shareholders’ meeting), until January 1, 2010 they were canceled and no longer available for issuance by us. As of January 1, 2010, the board of directors of Lan Airlines has a legal obligation to initiate the necessary legal actions to collect the unpaid amounts, unless the shareholders’ meeting which authorized the capital increase, allowed the board to abstain from taking such action by a vote of two thirds of the issued shares, in which case the former rule still applies. Once the foregoing legal actions are exhausted, the board of directors shall propose to the shareholders’ meeting the appropriate capital adjustment measures, to be decided by simple majority. Fully paid shares are not subject to further calls or assessments or to liabilities of Lan Airlines.

 
142

 

As of February 28, 2011, our share capital consisted of 339,150,459 common shares, all of which were subscribed and fully paid. Chilean law recognizes the right to issue common and preferred shares. To date, we have issued and are authorized by our shareholders to issue only common shares. Each share of stock is entitled to one vote. Pursuant to an employee compensation plan approved by extraordinary shareholders’ meetings dated April 5, 2007 and October 29, 2009, the issuance of certain shares has been authorized but that has not been made effective in full, as such issuance is subject to the exercising of rights granted to certain employees that expire on December 31, 2011.
 
Preemptive Rights and Increases in Share Capital
 
The Chilean Corporation Law requires Chilean companies to offer existing shareholders the right to purchase a sufficient number of shares to maintain their existing percentage of ownership in a company whenever that company issues new shares for cash, except for up to 10% of the capital increase which may be destined to employee compensation pursuant to article 24 of the Corporation Law. Under this requirement, any preemptive rights will be offered by us to the depositary as the registered owner of the common shares underlying the ADSs, but holders of ADSs and shareholders located in the United States will not be allowed to exercise preemptive rights with respect to new issuances of shares by us unless a registration statement under the Securities Act is effective with respect to those common shares or an exemption from the registration requirements thereunder is available.
 
We intend to evaluate at the time of any preemptive rights offering the costs and potential liabilities associated with the preparation and filing of a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as well as the indirect benefits of enabling the exercise by the holders of ADSs and shareholders located in the United States of preemptive rights and any other factors we consider appropriate at the time. No assurances can be given that any registration statement would be filed. If preemptive rights are not made available to ADS holders, the depositary may sell those holders’ preemptive rights and distribute the proceeds thereof if a secondary market for such rights exists and a premium can be recognized over the cost of such sale. In the event that the depositary does not sell such rights at a premium over the cost of any such sale, all or certain holders of ADRs may receive no value for the preemptive rights. The inability of holders of ADSs to exercise preemptive rights in respect of common shares underlying their ADSs could result in a change in their percentage ownership of common shares following a preemptive rights offering.
 
Under Chilean law, preemptive rights are freely exercisable, transferable or waived by shareholders during a thirty-day period commencing upon publication of the official notice announcing the start of the preemptive rights period in the newspaper designated by the shareholders’ meeting. The preemptive right of the shareholders is the pro rata amount of the shares registered in their name in the shareholders’ registry of Lan Airlines as of the fifth business day prior to the date of publication of the notice announcing the start of the preemptive rights period. During such thirty-day period (except for shares as to which preemptive rights have been waived), Chilean companies are not permitted to offer any newly issued common shares for sale to third parties. For that thirty-day period and an additional thirty-day period, Chilean publicly held corporations are not permitted to offer any unsubscribed common shares for sale to third parties on terms that are more favorable to the purchaser than those offered to shareholders. At the end of such additional thirty-day period, Chilean publicly held corporations are authorized to sell non-subscribed shares to third-parties on any terms, provided they are sold on a Chilean stock exchange.
 
Directors
 
Our by-laws provide for a board of nine directors. Compensation to be paid to directors must be approved by vote at the annual shareholders’ meeting. We hold elections for all positions on the board of directors every two years. Under our by-laws, directors are elected by cumulative voting. Each shareholder has one vote per share and may cast all of his or her votes in favor of one nominee or may apportion his or her votes among any number of nominees. These voting provisions currently ensure that a shareholder owning more than 10% of our outstanding shares is able to elect at least one representative to our board of directors.

 
143

 

Under the Chilean Corporation Law, transactions of a publicly-traded company with a “related” party must be conducted on an arm’s-length basis and must satisfy certain approval and disclosure requirements which are different from the ones that apply to a privately-held company. The conditions apply to the publicly-traded company and to all of its subsidiaries.
 
These transactions include any negotiation, act, contract or operation in which the publicly-traded company intervenes together with either (i) parties which are legally deemed related pursuant to article 100 of the Chilean Securities Market Law, (ii) a director, senior manager, administrator, main executive or liquidator of the company, either on their own behalf or on behalf of a third party, including those individuals’ spouses or close relatives, (iii) companies in which the foregoing individuals own at least 10% (directly or indirectly), or in which they serve as directors, senior managers, administrators or main executives (iv) parties indicated as such in the publicly-traded company’s by-laws, or identified by the directors’ committee, or (v) those who have served as directors, senior managers, administrators, main executives or liquidators of the counterparty in the last eighteen months and are now serving in one of those positions at the publicly-traded company.
 
Corporations may enter into transactions with interested parties if (i) the transaction is in the interest of the corporation, (ii) the transaction is made on an arm’s-length basis at market conditions, (iii) the individuals involved in the transactions report them immediately to the board, (iv) the transaction is approved after a reasoned explanation by the majority of the board, excluding those directors or liquidators that are involved in the transaction (who shall, nonetheless, render an opinion on the matter if required by the board), (v) the decisions of the board is disclosed at the next shareholders’ meeting, and (vi) in case the majority of the board is disqualified to vote, the majority of the non-involved directors have approved the transaction, or two thirds of the voting shares have approved the transaction).
 
If as noted in (vi) above, the transaction is to be approved by the shareholder’s meeting, the following additional rules apply: (i) the board shall appoint an independent appraiser that shall report to the shareholders on the transaction; (ii) the director’s committee or the non-involved directors may appoint a second independent appraiser; (iii) the appraiser’s reports shall be made available for fifteen days; (iv) the receipt and availability of the reports shall be disclosed as a material fact; (iv) directors shall render an opinion on the transaction within five business days after receiving the reports.
 
Transactions which do not meet the foregoing requirements are valid and enforceable, but neither the corporation nor its shareholders shall have a cause of action to sue the infringing party for reimbursement on behalf of the corporation, for a total of the benefits reported to the interested party, in addition to indemnification for the damages caused. In such proceedings, the defendant shall prove that the transaction met the legal requirements.
 
The Chilean Corporation Law sets forth a number of exceptions to the foregoing rules. In the following situations, transactions with related parties may be carried out without complying with the foregoing rules: (i) if a transaction does not involve a substantial amount (if it does not exceed 1.0% of the net worth of the company and does not exceed the equivalent of 2,000 UF or approximately US$79,000 as of the date of this annual report) unless such a transaction exceeds 20,000 UF (for this calculation all similar transactions carried out within a consecutive 12-month period between the same parties or for the same subject matter, shall be deemed as a single transaction), (ii) transactions which according to the policies determined by the board of directors, are deemed to be within the ordinary course of business (the determination of such policies shall be disclosed as a material fact and made available to shareholders), and (iii) if the counterparty is an entity in which the publicly-traded company has, directly or indirectly, at least a 95.0% ownership. As per the exemption indicated in (ii) above, on December 29, 2009, the Board of Directors of LAN determined the cited policies setting forth the transactions that fall within the ordinary course of business. That determination was publicly disclosed on the same day and is currently available on LAN’s website under the “Corporate Governance” section.”

Shareholders’ Meetings and Voting Rights
 
The Chilean Corporation Law requires that an ordinary annual meeting of shareholders be held within the first four months of each year after being called by the board of directors (generally they are held in April, but in any case following the preparation of our financial statements, including the report of our auditors, for the previous fiscal year). Lan Airlines’ by-laws further provide that the ordinary annual meeting of shareholders must take place between February 1 and April 30. The shareholders at the ordinary annual meeting approve the annual financial statements, including the report of our auditors, the annual report, the dividend policy and the final dividend on the prior year’s profits, elect the board of directors (in our case, every two years or earlier if a vacancy occurs) and approve any other matter that does not require an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting. The most recent extraordinary meeting of our shareholders was held on October 29, 2009, and the most recent ordinary annual meeting of our shareholders was held on April 29, 2010.
 
Extraordinary shareholders’ meetings may be called by the board of directors, if deemed appropriate, and ordinary or extraordinary shareholders’ meetings must be called by the board of directors when requested by shareholders representing at least 10.0% of the issued voting shares or by the SVS. In addition, as from January 1, 2010 there are two new rules in this regard: (i) the SVS may directly call for an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting in case of a publicly-traded companies, and (ii) any kind of shareholders’ meeting may be self-convened and take place if all voting shares attend, regardless of the fulfillment of the notice and other type of procedural requirements.
 
Notice to convene the ordinary annual meeting or an extraordinary meeting is given by means of three notices which must be published in a newspaper of our corporate domicile (currently Santiago, Chile) designated by the shareholders at their annual meeting and, if the shareholders fail to make such designation, the notice must be published in the Chilean Official Gazette pursuant to legal requirements. The first notice must be published not less than fifteen days and not more than twenty days in advance of the scheduled meeting. Notice also must be mailed not less than fifteen days in advance of the meeting to each shareholder and to the SVS and the Chilean stock exchanges. Currently, we publish our official notices in the newspaper La Tercera (available online at www.latercera.com).
 
The quorum for a shareholders’ meeting is established by the presence, in person or by proxy, of shareholders representing a majority of our issued common shares. If that quorum is not reached, the meeting can be reconvened within forty-five days, and at the second meeting the shareholders present are deemed to constitute a quorum regardless of the percentage of the common shares that they represent.
 
Only shareholders registered with us on the fifth business day prior to the date of a meeting are entitled to attend and vote their shares. A shareholder may appoint another individual (who need not be a shareholder) as his or her proxy to attend and vote on his or her behalf. Proxies addressed to us that do not designate a person to exercise the proxy are taken into account in order to determine if there is a sufficient quorum to hold the meeting, but the shares represented thereby are not entitled to vote at the meeting. The proxies must fulfill the requirements set forth by the Chilean Corporation Law and its regulatory norms. Every shareholder entitled to attend and vote at a shareholders’ meeting has one vote for every share subscribed.
 
The following matters can only be considered at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting:
 
 
·
our dissolution;
 
 
·
a merger, transformation, division or other change in our corporate form or the amendment of our by-laws;
 
 
·
the issuance of bonds or debentures convertible into shares;
 
 
·
the conveyance of 50% or more of our assets (whether or not it includes our liabilities);
 
 
·
the adoption or amendment of any business plan which contemplates the conveyance of assets in excess of the foregoing percentage;
 
 
·
the conveyance of 50% or more of the assets of a subsidiary, if the latter represents at least 20% of our assets;
 
 
·
the conveyance of shares of a subsidiary which entails the transfer of control;
 
 
·
granting of a security interest or a personal guarantee in each case to secure the obligations of third parties, unless to secure or guarantee the obligations of a subsidiary, in which case only the approval of the board of directors will suffice; and
 
 
145

 

 
·
other matters that require shareholder approval according to Chilean law or the by-laws.
 
The matters referred to in the first seven items listed above may only be approved at a meeting held before a notary public, who shall certify that the minutes are a true record of the events and resolutions of the meeting.
 
The by-laws establish that resolutions are passed at shareholders’ meetings by the affirmative vote of an absolute majority of those voting shares present or represented at the meeting. However, under the Chilean Corporation Law, the vote of a two-thirds majority of the outstanding voting shares is required to approve any of the following actions:
 
 
·
a change in our corporate form, division or merger with another entity;
 
 
·
amendment to our term of existence, if any;
 
 
·
our early dissolution;
 
 
·
change in our corporate domicile;
 
 
·
decrease of our capital stock;
 
 
·
approval of contributions and the assessment thereof whenever consisting of assets other than money;
 
 
·
any modification of the authority reserved for the shareholders’ meetings or limitations on the powers of the board of directors;
 
 
·
decrease in the number of members of the board of directors;
 
 
·
the conveyance of 50% or more our assets (whether or not it includes our liabilities);
 
 
·
the adoption or amendment of any business plan which contemplates the conveyance of assets in excess of the foregoing percentage;
 
 
·
the conveyance of 50% or more of the assets of a subsidiary, if the latter represents at least 20% of our assets;
 
 
·
the conveyance of shares of a subsidiary which entails the transfer of control;
 
 
·
the form that dividends are paid in;
 
 
·
granting a security interest or a personal guarantee in each case to secure obligations of third parties that exceeds 50% of our assets, unless to secure or guarantee the obligations of a subsidiary, in which case only approval of the board of directors will suffice;
 
 
·
the acquisition of our own shares, when, and on the terms and conditions, permitted by law;
 
 
·
all other matters provided for in the by-laws; and
 
 
·
the correction of any formal defect in our incorporation or any amendment to our by-laws that refers to any of the matters indicated in the first thirteen items listed above;
 
 
·
the institution of the right of the controlling shareholder who has purchases at least 95% of the shares, to purchase shares of the outstanding minority shareholders pursuant to the procedure set forth in article 71 bis of the Corporation Law;
 
 
·
the approval or ratification of transactions with related parties, as per article 147 of the Corporation Law (described above).
 
Amendments to the by-laws that have the effect of establishing, modifying or eliminating any special rights pertaining to any series of shares require the consenting vote of holders of two-thirds of the shares of the affected series. As noted above, Lan Airlines does not have special series of shares.

 
146

 

In general, Chilean law does not require a publicly held corporation to provide the level and type of information that the U.S. securities laws require a reporting company to provide to its shareholders in connection with a solicitation of proxies. However, shareholders are entitled to examine the books of the company and its subsidiaries within the fifteen-day period before the scheduled meeting. No later than the first notice summoning an ordinary shareholder’s meeting, the board of directors of a publicly held corporation shall send to every shareholder notice by regular mail, containing a reference to the issues that will be discussed, together with instructions to obtain all the appropriate documentation regarding those issues, in addition to being obligated to publish them in our website, and also a copy of the annual report and the financial statements of the company. However, the SVS may authorize companies that have a large number of shareholders to limit the sending of such documents only to those shareholders who have a number of shares exceeding a certain number, and, in any case, to any shareholder that has required of the company such sending. Shareholders who do not fall into this category but who request it must be sent a copy of our annual report. In addition to these requirements, we regularly have provided, and currently intend to continue to provide, together with the notice of shareholders’ meeting, a proposal for the final annual dividend for shareholder approval. See “—Dividend and Liquidation Rights” below.
 
The Chilean Corporation Law provides that, whenever shareholders representing 10% or more of the issued voting shares so request, a Chilean company’s annual report must include such shareholders’ comments and proposal in relation to the company’s affairs, together with the comments and proposals set forth by the directors’ committee. Similarly, the Chilean Corporation Law provides that whenever the board of directors of a publicly held corporation convenes an ordinary meeting of the shareholders and solicits proxies for that meeting, or distributes information supporting its decisions or other similar material, it is obligated to include as an annex to its annual report any pertinent comments and proposals that may have been made by shareholders owning 10% or more of the company’s voting shares who have requested that such comments and proposals be included, together with the comments and proposals set forth by the directors’ committee.
 
Dividend and Liquidation Rights
 
In accordance with the Chilean Corporation Law, Lan Airlines must distribute an annual cash dividend equal to at least 30% of its annual net income calculated in accordance with IFRS, unless otherwise decided by a unanimous vote of the holders of all issued shares, and unless and except to the extent it has accumulated losses. If there is no net income in a given year, Lan Airlines can elect but is not legally obligated to distribute dividends out of retained earnings. All outstanding common shares are entitled to share equally in all dividends declared by Lan Airlines, unless the shares have not been fully paid by the shareholder after being subscribed.
 
For all dividend distributions agreed by the board of directors in excess of the mandatory minimum of 30% noted in the preceding paragraph, Lan Airlines may grant an option to its shareholders to receive those dividends in cash, or in shares issued by either Lan Airlines or other corporations. Shareholders who do not expressly elect to receive a dividend other than in cash are legally presumed to have decided to receive the dividend in cash. A U.S. holder of ADSs may, in the absence of an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or an available exemption from the registration requirement thereunder, effectively be required to receive a dividend in cash. See “—Preemptive Rights and Increases in Share Capital” above.
 
Dividends that are declared but not paid within the appropriate time period set forth in the Chilean Corporation Law (as to minimum dividends, thirty days after declaration; as to additional dividends, the date set for payment at the time of declaration) are adjusted to reflect the change in the value of the UF. The UF is a daily indexed, Chilean peso-denominated accounting unit designed to discount the effect of Chilean inflation and it is based on the previous month’s inflation rate as officially determined. Such dividends also accrue interest at the then-prevailing rate for UF-denominated deposits during such period. The right to receive a dividend lapses if it is not claimed within five years from the date such dividend is payable. After that period, the amount not claimed is given to a non-profit organization, the Junta Nacional de Cuerpos de Bomberos de Chile (the National Corporation of Firefighters).
 
In the event of Lan Airlines’ liquidation, the holders of fully paid common shares would participate pro rata in the distribution of assets remaining after payment of all creditors. Holders of shares not fully paid will participate in such distribution in proportion to the amount paid.
 
Approval of Financial Statements
 
The board of directors is required to submit our consolidated financial statements to the shareholders for their approval at the annual ordinary shareholders’ meeting. If the shareholders reject the financial statements, the board of directors must submit new financial statements not later than sixty days from the date of that meeting. If the shareholders reject the new financial statements, the entire board of directors is deemed removed from office and a new board is to be elected at the same meeting. Directors who approved such financial statements are disqualified for re-election for the ensuing period.

Right of Dissenting Shareholders to Tender Their Shares
 
The Chilean Corporation Law provides that, upon the adoption at an extraordinary meeting of shareholders of any of the resolutions or if it takes place any of the situations enumerated below, dissenting or affected shareholders acquire the right to withdraw and to compel the company to repurchase their shares, subject to the fulfillment of certain terms and conditions. However, such right shall be suspended if we are declared bankrupt or are subject to a creditor’s agreement pursuant to Title XII of Book IV of the Commerce Code. In the case of holders of ADRs, however, in order to exercise such rights, holders of ADRs would be required to first withdraw the common shares represented by the ADRs pursuant to the terms of the deposit agreement. Such holders of ADRs would need to perfect the withdrawal of the common shares on or before the fifth business day prior to the date of the meeting.
 
“Dissenting shareholders” are defined as those who attend a shareholders’ meeting and vote against a resolution which results in the withdrawal right, or, if absent at such a meeting, those who state in writing to the company their opposition to such resolution within the following thirty days. Dissenting shareholders must perfect their withdrawal rights by tendering their stock to the company within thirty days after adoption of the resolution.
 
The price paid to a dissenting shareholder of a publicly held corporation is the weighted average of the sales prices for the shares as reported on the Chilean stock exchanges on which the shares are quoted for the two-month period preceding the event giving rise to the withdrawal right. If, because of the volume, frequency, number and diversity of the buyers and sellers, the SVS determines that the shares are not shares actively traded on a stock exchange (acciones de transacción bursátil), the price paid to the dissenting shareholder is the book value. Book value for this purpose equals paid capital plus reserves and profits, less losses, divided by the total number of subscribed shares (whether entirely or partially paid). For the purpose of making this calculation, the last annual balance sheet is used and adjusted to reflect inflation up to the date of the shareholders’ meeting that gave rise to the withdrawal right.
 
The resolutions and situations that result in a shareholder’s right to withdraw are the following:
 
 
· 
the transformation of the company into an entity that is not a publicly held corporation governed by the Chilean Corporation Law;
 
 
· 
the merger of the company with or into another company;
 
 
· 
the conveyance of 50% or more of the assets of the company, whether or not such sale includes the company’s liabilities;
 
 
· 
the adoption or amendment of any business plan which contemplates the conveyance of assets in excess of the foregoing percentage;
 
 
· 
the conveyance of 50% or more of the assets of a subsidiary, if the latter represents at least 20% of our assets;
 
 
· 
the conveyance of shares of a subsidiary which entails the transfer of control;
 
 
· 
the creation of preferential rights for a class of shares or an extension, amendment or reduction to those already existing, in which case the right to withdraw only accrues to the dissenting shareholders of the class or classes of shares adversely affected;
 
 
· 
the correction of any formal defect in the incorporation of the company or any amendment to the company’s by-laws that grants the right to withdraw;
 
 
· 
the granting of security interests or personal guarantees to secure or guarantee third parties’ obligations exceeding 50% of the company’s assets, except with regard to subsidiaries;
 
 
· 
resolutions of the shareholders’ meeting approving the decision to make private a public corporation in the case the requirements set forth in “—General” cease to be met;
 
 
148

 
 
 
·
if a publicly-traded company ceases to be obligated to register its shares in the Securities Registry of the SVS, and an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting agrees to de-register the shares and finalize its disclosure obligations mandated by the Corporation Law;
 
 
·
if the controlling shareholder of a publicly-traded company reaches over 95% of the shares (in such case, the right must be exercised within 30 days of the date in which the threshold is reached, circumstance that must be communicated by means of a publication); and
 
 
·
such other causes as may be established by the company’s by-laws (no such additional resolutions currently are specified in our by-laws).
 
In addition, shareholders of publicly held corporations have the right to withdraw if a person acquires two-thirds or more of the outstanding shares of such corporation with the right to vote (except as a result of other shareholders not having subscribed and paid a capital increase) and does not make a tender offer for the remaining shares within thirty days after acquisition.
 
Under Article 69(bis) of the Chilean Corporation Law, the right to withdraw also is granted to shareholders (other than pension funds that administer private pension plans under the national pension law), under certain terms and conditions, if a company were to become controlled by the Chilean government, directly or through any of its agencies, and if two independent rating agencies downgrade the rating of its stock from first class because of certain actions specified in Article 69(bis) undertaken by the company or the Chilean government that affect negatively and substantially the earnings of the company. Shareholders must perfect their withdrawal rights by tendering their shares to the company within thirty days of the date of the publication of the new rating by two independent rating agencies. If the withdrawal right is exercised by a shareholder invoking Article 69(bis), the price paid to the dissenting shareholder shall be the weighted average of the sales price for the shares as reported on the stock exchanges on which the company’s shares are quoted for the six-month period preceding the publication of the new rating by two independent rating agencies. If, as previously described, the SVS determines that the shares are not actively traded on a stock exchange, the price shall be the book value calculated as described above.
 
There is no legal precedent as to whether a shareholder that has voted both for and against a proposal (such as the depositary) may exercise withdrawal rights with respect to the shares voted against the proposal. As such, there is doubt as to whether holders of ADRs who have not surrendered their ADRs and withdrawn common shares on or before the fifth business day prior to the shareholder meeting will be able to exercise withdrawal rights either directly or through the depositary with respect to the shares represented by ADRs. Under the provisions of the deposit agreement the depositary will not exercise these withdrawal rights.
 
The circumstance indicated above regarding ownership in excess of 95% by the controlling shareholder creates not only a withdrawal right for the remaining minority shareholders, but as of January 1, 2010, it also creates a “squeeze out” right by the controlling shareholder with respect to those same shareholders (granting a call option by means of which the controlling shareholder may buy-out the existing ownership participations pursuant to the provisions of article 71 bis of the Corporation Law).
 
Registration and Transfers
 
The Depósito Central de Valores, (“DCV”), acts as Lan Airlines’ registration agent. In the case of jointly owned common shares, an attorney-in-fact must be appointed to represent the joint owners in dealings with us.

Foreign Investment and Exchange Controls in Chile
 
The Central Bank of Chile is responsible, among other things, for monetary policies and exchange controls in Chile. Equity investments, including investments in shares of stock by persons who are non-Chilean residents, have been generally subject in the past to various exchange control regulations restricting the repatriation of their investments and the earnings thereon.
 
Article 47 of the Central Bank Act and Chapter XXVI of the Central Bank Foreign Exchange Regulations regulated the foreign exchange aspects of the issuance of ADSs by a Chilean company until April 2001. According to Chapter XXVI, the Central Bank of Chile and the depositary had to enter into an agreement in order to gain access to the formal exchange market. The issuers of the shares underlying the ADSs and the custodian could also be parties to these agreements and we are party to such agreement.
 
On April 16, 2001, the Central Bank of Chile agreed that, effective April 19, 2001:
 
 
·
prior foreign exchange restrictions would be eliminated: and
 
 
·
a new Compendium of Foreign Exchange Regulations (Compendio de Normas de Cambios Internacionales) would be applied.
 
The main objective of these amendments, as declared by the Central Bank of Chile, is to facilitate movement of capital in and out of Chile and to encourage foreign investment.
 
In connection with the change in policy, the Central Bank of Chile eliminated the following restrictions:
 
 
·
a reserve requirement with the Central Bank of Chile for a period of one year (this mandatory reserve was imposed on foreign loans and funds brought into Chile to purchase shares other than those acquired in the establishment of a new company or in the capital increase of the issuing company; the reserve requirement was gradually decreased from 30% of the proposed investment to 0%);
 
 
·
the requirement of prior approval by the Central Bank of Chile for certain operations;
 
 
·
mandatory return of foreign currencies to Chile; and
 
 
151

 
 
 
·
mandatory conversion of foreign currencies into Chilean pesos.
 
Under the new regulations, only the following limitations apply to these operations:
 
 
·
the Central Bank of Chile must be provided with information related to certain operations; and
 
 
·
certain operations must be conducted with the Formal Exchange Market.
 
The Central Bank of Chile also eliminated Chapter XXVI of the Compendium of Foreign Exchange Regulations, which regulated the establishment of an ADR facility by a Chilean company. Pursuant to the new rules, it is no longer necessary to seek the Central Bank of Chile’s prior approval in order to establish an ADR facility nor to enter into a foreign investment contract with the Central Bank of Chile. The establishment of an ADR facility is now regarded as an ordinary foreign investment, and simply requires that the Central Bank of Chile be informed of the transaction pursuant to Chapter XIV of the revised Compendium of Foreign Exchange Regulations and that the transaction be conducted exclusively through the Formal Exchange Market.
 
However, all contracts executed under the provisions of Chapter XXVI (including the foreign investment contract among Lan Airlines, the Central Bank of Chile and the ADS depositary, or the “Foreign Investment Contract”), remain in full force and effect and continue to be governed by the provisions, and continue to be subject to the restrictions, set forth in Chapter XXVI at the time of its abrogation. Our Foreign Investment Contract guarantees ADS investors access to the Formal Exchange Market to convert amounts from Chilean pesos into U.S. dollars and repatriate amounts received with respect to deposited common shares or common shares withdrawn from deposit or 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 from them).
 
The guarantee of access to the Formal Exchange Market under the Foreign Investment Contract requires compliance of the following conditions:
 
 
·
the funds to purchase the common shares underlying the ADSs are brought into Chile and converted into Chilean pesos through the Formal Exchange Market;
 
 
·
the purchase of the underlying common shares is made on a Chilean stock exchange; and
 
 
·
within five business days from conversion of the funds into Chilean pesos, the Central Bank of Chile is informed that the conversion funds were used to purchase the underlying common shares.
 
The following is a summary of material provisions of the Foreign Investment Contract, a form of which was filed as an exhibit to the registration statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-7750) that we filed on October 10, 1997 in connection with our November 6, 1997 offering. This summary is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Chapter XXVI and the Foreign Investment Contract.
 
Under Chapter XXVI and the Foreign Investment Contract, the Central Bank of Chile agreed to grant to the depositary, on behalf of ADR holders, and to any investor not residing or domiciled in Chile who withdraws common shares upon surrender of ADRs, access to the Formal Exchange Market to convert Chilean pesos into U.S. dollars (and to remit those dollars outside Chile) in respect of common shares represented by ADSs or withdrawn shares, including amounts received as:
 
 
·
cash dividends;
 
 
·
proceeds from the sale in Chile of withdrawn shares or from shares distributed as a result of a liquidation, merger or consolidation of Lan Airlines (subject to receipt by the Central Bank of Chile of a certificate from the holder of the withdrawn shares or the distributed shares (or from an institution authorized by the Central Bank of Chile) that the holder’s residence and domicile are outside of Chile, and a certificate from a Chilean stock exchange (or from a brokerage or securities firm established in Chile) that the withdrawn shares or the distributed shares were sold on a Chilean stock exchange);
 
 
·
proceeds from the sale in Chile of preemptive rights to subscribe for additional common shares;
 
 
·
proceeds from the liquidation, merger or consolidation of Lan Airlines;
 
 
152

 
 
 
·
proceeds from the sale in Chile of common shares received as a dividend; and
 
 
·
other distributions, including those in respect of any recapitalization resulting from holding common shares represented by ADSs or withdrawn shares.
 
Chapter XXVI provided that access to the Formal Exchange Market in connection with dividend payments is conditioned on our certifying to the Central Bank of Chile that a dividend payment has been made and that any applicable tax has been withheld. We agreed to provide this certification. Chapter XXVI also provides that access to the Formal Exchange Market in connection with the sale of withdrawn shares, or distribution on them, is conditioned upon receipt by the Central Bank of Chile of a certification by the depositary or custodian, as the case may be, that the common shares have been withdrawn in exchange for delivery of the appropriate ADRs and receipt of a waiver of the benefit of the Foreign Investment Contract with respect to them (except in connection with the proposed sale of the common shares) until the withdrawn shares are redeposited.
 
Chapter XXVI and the Foreign Investment Contract provided that a person who brings foreign currency into Chile to purchase common shares pursuant to the Foreign Investment Contract must convert that foreign currency into Chilean pesos on the date of entry into Chile, and must invest in common shares within five banking business days in order to receive the benefits of the Foreign Investment Contract. If a person does not invest in common shares within that period, that person can access the Formal Exchange Market to reacquire foreign currency, provided that the request is presented to the Central Bank of Chile within seven banking business days of the initial conversion into pesos. Common shares acquired as described above may be deposited in exchange for ADRs and will receive the benefits of the Foreign Investment Contract, subject to:
 
 
·
receipt by the Central Bank of Chile of a certificate from the depositary that the common shares have been deposited and that the related ADRs have been issued; and
 
 
·
receipt by the custodian of a declaration from the person making the deposit waiving the benefits of the Foreign Investment Contract with respect to the deposited common shares.
 
Access to the Formal Exchange Market under any of the circumstances described above is not automatic. Pursuant to Chapter XXVI, such access required approval of the Central Bank of Chile based on a request presented through a banking institution established in Chile. The Foreign Investment Contract provides that if the Central Bank of Chile has not acted on the request within seven banking days, the request is deemed approved.
 
Under current Chilean law, the Foreign Investment Contract cannot be changed unilaterally by the Central Bank of Chile. We cannot guarantee, however, that additional Chilean restrictions applicable to the holders of ADRs, the disposition of the common shares underlying ADSs or the repatriation of the proceeds from an acquisition, a disposition or a dividend payment, will not be imposed or required in the future, nor could we make an assessment as to the duration or impact, were any such restrictions to be imposed or required.  On May 10, 2007, the Council of the Central Bank of Chile agreed to grant the Chilean companies that increased their capital stock between the date of the agreement and August 31, 2007 the option to request, on a one-time only basis, the application of Chapter XXVI to those shares issued and actually paid before August 31, 2008 (assuming prior fulfillment of the requirements of the Central Bank of Chile).
 
Voting Rights
 
Holders of our ADSs, which represent common shares, may instruct the depositary to vote the shares underlying their ADRs. If we ask holders for instructions, the depositary will notify such holders of the upcoming vote and arrange to deliver our voting materials to such holders. The materials will describe the matters to be voted on and explain how holders may instruct the depositary to vote the shares or other deposited securities underlying their ADSs as they direct by a specified date. For instructions to be valid, the depositary must receive them on or before the date specified as “Vote Cut-Off Date.” The depositary will try, as far as practical, subject to Chilean law and the provisions of our by-laws, to vote or to have its agents vote the shares or other deposited securities as holders instruct. Otherwise, holders will not be able to exercise their right to vote unless they withdraw the shares. However, holders may not know about the meeting far enough in advance to withdraw the shares. We will use our best efforts to request that the depositary notify holders of upcoming votes and ask for their instructions.
 
 
153

 
 
If the depositary does not receive voting instructions from a holder by the specified date, it will consider such holder to have authorized and directed it to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by our board of directors to vote the number of deposited securities represented by such holder’s ADSs. The depositary will give a discretionary proxy in those circumstances to vote on all questions to be voted upon unless we notify the depositary that:
 
 
·
we do not wish to receive a discretionary proxy;
 
 
·
we think there is substantial shareholder opposition to the particular question; or
 
 
·
we think the particular question would have an adverse impact on our shareholders.
 
The depositary will only vote or attempt to vote as such holder instructs or as described above.
 
We cannot assure holders that they receive the voting materials in time to ensure that they can instruct the depositary to vote their shares. This means that holders may not be able to exercise their right to vote and there may be nothing they can do if their shares are not voted as they requested.
 
Exchange Rates
 
Prior to 1989, Chilean law permitted the purchase and sale of foreign exchange only in those cases explicitly authorized by the Central Bank of Chile. The Central Bank Act liberalized the rules that govern the ability to buy and sell foreign currency. The Central Bank Act empowers the Central Bank of Chile to determine that certain purchases and sales of foreign currency specified by law must be carried out exclusively in the Formal Exchange Market, which is made up of the banks and other entities authorized by the Central Bank of Chile. All payments and distributions with respect to the ADSs must be conducted exclusively in the Formal Exchange Market.
 
For purposes of the operation of the Formal Exchange Market, the Central Bank of Chile sets a reference exchange rate (dólar acuerdo). The Central Bank of Chile resets the reference exchange rate monthly, taking internal and external inflation into account, and adjusts the reference exchange rate daily to reflect variations in parities between the Chilean peso, the U.S. dollar, the Japanese yen and the European euro.
 
The observed exchange rate (dólar observado) is the average exchange rate at which transactions were actually carried out in the Formal Exchange Market on a particular day, as certified by the Central Bank of Chile on the next banking day.
 
Prior to September 3, 1999, the Central Bank of Chile was authorized to buy or sell dollars in the Formal Exchange Market to maintain the observed exchange rate within a specified range above or below the reference exchange rate. On September 3, 1999, the Central Bank of Chile eliminated the exchange band. As a result, the Central Bank of Chile may buy and sell foreign exchange in the Formal Exchange Market in order to maintain the observed exchange rate at a level the Central Bank of Chile determines.
 
Purchases and sales of foreign exchange may be effected outside the Formal Exchange Market through the Informal Exchange Market (Mercado Cambiario Informal) established by the Central Bank in 1990. There are no limits on the extent to which the rate of exchange in the Informal Exchange Market can fluctuate above or below the observed exchange rate.
 
Although our results of operations have not been significantly affected by fluctuations in the exchange rates between the peso and the U.S. dollar because our functional currency is the U.S. dollar, we are exposed to foreign exchange losses and gains due to exchange rate fluctuations. Even though the majority of our revenues are denominated in or pegged to the U.S. dollar, the Chilean government’s economic policies affecting foreign exchange and future fluctuations in the value of the peso against the U.S. dollar could adversely affect our results of operations and an investor’s return on an investment in ADSs.

Chilean Taxation
 
The following discussion relates to Chilean income tax laws presently in force, including Ruling No. 324 of January 29, 1990 of the Chilean Internal Revenue Service (“Chilean IRS”) and other applicable regulations and rulings, all of which are subject to change. The discussion summarizes the principal Chilean income tax consequences of an investment in the ADSs or common shares by a person who is neither domiciled in, nor a resident of, Chile or by a legal entity that is not organized under the laws of Chile and does not have a branch or a permanent establishment located in Chile (such an individual or entity is referred to herein as a Foreign Holder). For purposes of Chilean tax law, an individual holder is a resident of Chile if such person has resided in Chile for more than six consecutive months in one calendar year or for a total of six months, whether consecutive or not, in two consecutive tax years. In addition, an individual is considered domiciled in Chile in case he or she resides in Chile with the actual or presumptive intent of staying in the country. The discussion is not intended as tax advice to any particular investor, which can be rendered only in light of that investor’s particular tax situation.
 
Under Chilean law, provisions contained in statutes such as tax rates applicable to foreign investors, the computation of taxable income for Chilean purposes and the manner in which Chilean taxes are imposed and collected may only be amended by another statute. In addition, the Chilean tax authorities enact rulings and regulations of either general or specific application and 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 Chilean tax authorities may change these rulings, regulations and interpretations prospectively. On February 4, 2010, representatives of the governments of the United States and Chile signed an income tax treaty. The new treaty will have to be approved by the U.S. Senate.
 
Cash Dividends and Other Distributions.
 
Cash dividends we pay with respect to the ADSs or common shares held by a Foreign Holder will be subject to a 35% Chilean withholding tax, which we withhold and pay over to the Chilean tax authorities and which we refer to as the Withholding Tax. A credit against the Withholding Tax is available based on the level of corporate income tax we actually paid on the income to be distributed (referred to herein as the First Category Tax); however, this credit does not reduce the Withholding Tax on a one-for-one basis because it also increases the base on which the Withholding Tax is imposed. If we register net income but taxable losses, no credit against the Withholding Tax will be available. In addition, if we distribute less than all of our distributable income, the credit for First Category Tax we pay is proportionately reduced. In 2010 the First Category Tax rate was 17%. That year, the first category tax rate was increased to 20% for fiscal year 2011, and to 18.5% for fiscal year 2012. From 2013 onwards, the rate of First Category Tax will revert back to 17%. In general, the example below illustrates the effective Withholding Tax burden on a cash dividend received by a Foreign Holder, assuming a Withholding Tax rate of 35%, an effective First Category Tax rate of 17%, the actual payment of such First Category Tax at that 17% rate and a distribution of 30% of the consolidated net income of the Company after payment of the First Category Tax:
 
The Company’s taxable income
    100.00  
First Category Tax (17% of Ch$100)
    (17 )
Net distributable income
    83.00  
Dividend distributed (30% of net distributable income)
    24.9  
First category increase
    5.1  
Withholding Tax (35% of the sum of Ch$24.9 dividend plus Ch$5.1 First Category Tax paid)
    (10.5 )
Credit for 17% of First Category Tax
    5.1  
Net tax withheld
    (5.4 )
Net dividend received
    19.5  
Effective dividend withholding rate
    21.69 %
         
In general, the effective dividend Withholding Tax rate, after giving effect to the credit for the First Category Tax, can be calculated using the following formula:
 
 
155

 
 
(Withholding Tax rate) − (First Category Tax effective rate)
1 − (First Category Tax effective rate)
 
Under Chilean income tax law, dividends generally are assumed to have been paid out of our oldest retained profits for purposes of determining the level of First Category Tax that we paid. The effective rate of Withholding Tax to be imposed on dividends we pay will vary depending upon the amount of First Category Tax we paid (if any) on the earnings to which the dividends are attributed, according to the Company’s Taxable Profit Fund. The Effective Withholding Tax rate for dividends attributed to earnings from 1991 until 2001, for which the First Category Tax rate was 15%, will be 23.5%. For 2002, the First Category Tax rate was 16.0%, which results in an effective rate of 22.62%. In 2003, the First Category Tax rate was 16.5%, which results in an effective rate of 22.16%, and from 2004 onwards, the First Category Tax rate is 17%, which results in an effective rate of Withholding Tax of 21.69%.
 
For dividends attributable to our profits during years when the First Category Tax was 10% (before 1991), the effective rate will be 27.8%. However, whether the First Category Tax is 10%, 15%, 16%, 16.5% or 17%, the effective overall combined tax rate imposed on our distributed profits will be 35%. In the event that profits from previous years are not sufficient to cover a particular dividend, and the dividend is attributable to the current year, we will generally withhold tax from the dividend at the full 35% rate. If as of December 31 of the year in which the dividend is paid, the withholding is determined to be excessive taking into account First Category Tax, holders may file for a refund.
 
Dividend distributions made in property would be subject to the same Chilean tax rules as cash dividends based on the fair market value of such property. Stock dividends and the distribution of preemptive rights are not subject to Chilean taxation.
 
Capital Gains
 
Gain from the sale or other disposition by a Foreign Holder of ADRs evidencing ADSs outside Chile will not be subject to Chilean taxation. The deposit and withdrawal of common shares in exchange for ADRs will not be subject to any Chilean taxes.
 
Gain recognized on a sale or disposition of common shares (as distinguished from sales or exchanges of ADRs evidencing ADSs representing such common shares) may be subject to both the First Category Tax and the Withholding Tax (the former being creditable against the latter) if:
 
 
·
the Foreign Holder has held the common shares for less than one year since exchanging ADSs for the Shares;
 
 
·
the Foreign Holder acquired and disposed of the common shares in the ordinary course of its business or as a habitual trader of shares; or
 
 
·
the Foreign Holder and the purchaser of the common shares are “related parties” or has an interest in the latter within the meaning of Article 17, Number 8, of the Chilean Income Tax Law.
 
In all other cases, gain on the disposition of common shares will be subject only to a flat capital gains tax which is assessed at the same rate as the First Category Tax as sole income tax (currently imposed at a rate of 17% for 2010, 20% for 2011, 18.5% for 2012 and 17% from 2013 onwards) and no withholding tax will apply. The sale of shares of common stock by a Foreign Holder to an individual or entity resident or domiciled in Chile is subject to a provisional withholding. Such a provisional withholding will be equal to (i) 5% of the total (sale price) amount, without any deduction, paid to, credited to, account for, put at the disposal of, or corresponding to, the Foreign Holder if the transaction is subject to the First Category Tax, as a sole tax. Unless the gain subject to taxation can be determined, case in which the withholding is equal to 17%, 20% o 18,5%, whichever is applicable, on the gain, or (ii) 20% of the total amount (the sale price without any deduction), paid to, credited to, account for, put at the disposal of, or corresponding to, the Foreign Holder if the transaction is subject to the general tax regime, that is, the First Category Tax, and the Withholding Tax, with a credit of the First Category Tax already paid. The Foreign Holder would be entitled to request a tax refund for any amounts withheld in excess of the taxes actually due, in April of the following year upon filing its corresponding tax return. Gain recognized in the transfer of common shares that have a high presence in the stock exchange, however, is not subject to capital gains tax in Chile, provided that the common shares are transferred in a local stock exchange, in other authorized stock exchanges or within the process of a public tender of common shares governed by the Securities Market Law.

Chile’s Internal Revenue Service Ruling Nº224 (issued on January 30, 2008) confirmed that capital gains stemming from the sale of shares with high stock-market presence acquired through the exchange of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) for shares is not subject to capital gains tax in Chile. Such exemption is applicable provided that the purchase of such ADR certificates has been made at stock exchanges duly authorized by SVS (which includes the New York Stock Exchange).
 
The common shares must also have been acquired either in a stock exchange, within the process of a public tender of common shares governed by the Securities Market Law, in an initial public offer of common shares resulting from the formation of a corporation or a capital increase of the same, or in an exchange of convertible bonds. Shares are considered to have a high presence in the stock exchange when they:
 
 
·
are registered in the Securities Registry;
 
 
·
are registered in a Chilean Stock exchange; and
 
 
·
have an adjusted presence equal to or above 25%.
 
To calculate the adjusted presence of a particular share, the aforementioned regulation first requires a determination of the number of days in which the operations regarding the stock exceeded, in Chilean pesos, the equivalent of 200 UF (US$9,060 as of February 28, 2011) within the previous 180 business days of the stock market. That number must then be divided by 180, multiplied by 100, and expressed in a percentage value. This tax regime does not apply if the transaction involves an amount of shares that would allow the acquirer to take control of the publicly traded corporation, in which case the ordinary tax regime referred to in the previous paragraph will apply, unless the transfer is part of a tender offer governed by the Securities Market Law or the transfer is done on a Chilean stock exchange, without substantially exceeding the market price.
 
Capital gains obtained in the sale of shares that are publicly traded and have a high presence in a stock exchange are also exempt from capital gains tax in Chile when the sale is made by “foreign institutional investors” such as mutual funds and pension funds, provided that the sale is made in a stock exchange or in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Market Law, or in any other form authorized by the SVS. To qualify as a foreign institutional investor, an entity must be formed outside of Chile, not have a domicile in Chile, and must be at least one of the following:
 
 
·
a fund that offers its common shares or quotas publicly in a country with investment grade public debt, according to a classification performed by an international risk classification entity registered with the SVS;
 
 
·
a fund registered with a regulatory agency or authority from a country with investment grade public debt, according to a classification performed by an international risk classification entity registered with the SVS, provided that its investments in Chile constitute less than 30% of the share value of the fund, including deeds issued abroad representing Chilean securities, such as ADRs of Chilean companies;
 
 
·
a fund whose investments in Chile represent less than 30% of the share value of the fund, including deeds issued abroad representing Chilean securities, such as ADRs of Chilean companies, provided that not more than 10% of the share value of the fund is directly or indirectly owned by Chilean residents;
 
 
·
a pension fund that is formed exclusively by natural persons that receive pensions out of an accumulated capital in the fund;
 
 
·
a Foreign Capital Investment Fund, as defined in Law No. 18,657, in which case all quota holders shall be Chilean residents or domestic institutional investors; or
 
 
·
any other foreign institutional investor that complies with the requirements set forth in general regulations for each category of investor or prior information from the SVS and the Chilean IRS.
 
 
157

 
 
The foreign institutional investor must not directly or indirectly participate in the control of the corporations issuing the shares it invests in, nor possess or participate in 10% or more of the capital or the profits of such corporations.
 
Another requirement for the exemption is that the foreign institutional investor must execute a written contract with a bank or a stock broker incorporated in Chile. In this contract, the bank or stock broker must undertake to execute purchase and sale orders, verify the applicability of the tax exemption or tax withholding and inform the Chilean IRS of the investors it works with and the transactions it performs. Finally, the foreign institutional investor must register with the Chilean IRS by means of a sworn statement issued by such bank or stock broker.
 
The tax basis of common shares received in exchange for ADRs will be the acquisition value of the common shares on the date of exchange duly adjusted for local inflation. The valuation procedure set forth in the deposit agreement, which values common shares which are being exchanged at the highest price at which they trade on the Santiago Stock Exchange on the date of the exchange, will determine the acquisition value for this purpose. Consequently, the surrender of ADRs for common shares and the immediate sale of the common shares for the value established under the Deposit Agreement will not generate a capital gain subject to taxation in Chile, provided that the sale of the common shares is made on the same date on which the exchange of ADRs for common shares is recorded, or if the price of the common shares at the exchange date, as determined above, is higher than the price at which the common shares are sold.
 
The exercise of preemptive rights relating to the common shares will not be subject to Chilean taxation. Any gain on the sale of preemptive rights relating to the common shares will be subject to both the First Category Tax and the Withholding Tax (the former being creditable against the latter).
 
Other Chilean Taxes
 
There are no Chilean inheritance, gift or succession taxes applicable to the ownership, transfer or disposition of ADSs by a Foreign Holder, but such taxes generally will apply to the transfer at death or by gift of the common shares by a Foreign Holder. There are no Chilean stamp, issue, registration or similar taxes or duties payable by Foreign Holders of ADSs or common shares.
 
Withholding Tax Certificates
 
Upon request, we will provide to Foreign Holders appropriate documentation evidencing the payment of the Withholding Tax (net of the applicable First Category Tax).
 
United States Federal Income Tax Considerations
 
The following is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common shares and ADSs by a beneficial owner that is: (i) a citizen or resident of the United States; (ii) a U.S. domestic corporation; (iii) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or (iv) a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over its administration and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust (or otherwise if the trust has a valid election in effect under current Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person). For purposes of this discussion, we refer to these owners of common shares and ADSs as U.S. Holders. If a partnership holds common shares or ADSs, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend upon the status of the partner and upon the activities of the partnership. A prospective investor who is a partner of a partnership holding our common shares or ADSs should consult its own tax advisor.
 
This summary is not a comprehensive discussion of all of the tax considerations that may be relevant to your decision to purchase ADSs or common shares. In particular, this discussion is directed only to U.S. Holders that will hold ADSs or common shares as capital assets and it does not address any special U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be applicable to U.S. Holders that are subject to special treatment under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commonly referred to as the “Code,” such as banks, brokers or dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities electing to mark to market, financial institutions, life insurance companies, tax exempt entities, holders that own or are treated as owning 10% or more of our voting common shares, persons holding common shares or ADSs as part of a hedging or conversion transaction or a straddle, or persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. Prospective purchasers are advised to satisfy themselves as to the overall U.S. federal, state and local tax consequences of their ownership of ADSs or common shares by consulting their own tax advisers.
 
 
158

 
 
The statements of U.S. federal income tax laws set out below are based on the laws in force as of the date hereof and may be subject to changes in U.S. federal income tax law occurring after that date, including changes that may have retroactive effect.
 
ADRs
 
In general, if you are a U.S. Holder of ADRs evidencing our ADSs, you will be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as the beneficial owner of the underlying common shares that are represented by those ADSs and evidenced by those ADRs.
 
Taxation of Dividends
 
If you are a U.S. Holder, distributions of cash or property (other than common stock, if any, distributed pro rata to all of our shareholders, including holders of ADSs) paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) with respect to common shares or ADSs, including the net amount of the Chilean Withholding Tax withheld on the distribution (after taking into account the credit for the First Category Tax), will be includible in your gross income as ordinary income on the day on which you receive the dividends, in the case of common shares, or the date the depositary receives the dividends, in the case of common shares represented by ADSs, and will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to corporations under the Code. If you are a U.S. Holder, dividends paid in pesos generally will be includible in your gross income in a U.S. dollar amount calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the day you receive the dividends, in the case of common shares, or the date the depositary receives the dividends, in the case of common shares represented by ADSs. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisers regarding the treatment of foreign currency gain or loss, if any, on any pesos received which are converted into U.S. dollars after they are received. To the extent that the amount of any distribution exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such excess amounts will be treated first as a nontaxable return of capital to the extent of such U.S. Holder’s tax basis in the common shares or ADSs and, thereafter, as capital gain.
 
Subject to certain exceptions for short-term and hedged positions, the U.S. dollar amount of dividends received by an individual prior to January 1, 2013 with respect to the ADSs will be subject to taxation at a maximum rate of 15% if the dividends are “qualified dividends.” Dividends paid on the ADSs will be treated as qualified dividends if:
 
 
·
the ADSs are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States; and
 
 
·
we were not, in the year prior to the year in which the dividend was paid, and are not, in the year in which the dividend is paid, a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”).
 
The ADSs are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and will qualify as readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States so long as they are so listed. Moreover, based on our audited financial statements and relevant market and shareholder data, we believe that we were not treated as a PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to our 2009 or 2010 taxable year. In addition, based on our audited financial statements and our current expectations regarding the value and nature of our assets, the sources and nature of our income, and relevant market and shareholder data, we do not anticipate becoming a PFIC for our 2011 taxable year. However, there can be no assurance in this regard because the PFIC determination is made annually and is based on the portion of our assets and income that is characterized as passive under the PFIC rules.
 
Based on existing guidance, it is not clear whether dividends received with respect to the common shares will be treated as qualified dividends, because the common shares are not themselves listed on a U.S. exchange. In addition, the U.S. Treasury has announced its intention to promulgate rules pursuant to which U.S. Holders of ADSs or common shares and intermediaries through whom such securities are held will be permitted to rely on certifications from issuers to establish that dividends are treated as qualified dividends. Because such procedures have not yet been issued, it is not clear whether we will be able to comply with them. Holders should consult their own tax advisers regarding the availability of the reduced dividend tax rate in light of their own particular circumstances.
 
 
159

 
 
Subject to generally applicable limitations and conditions under the Code, Chilean Withholding Tax withheld from dividends (after taking into account the credit for the First Category Tax, when it is available) will be treated as a foreign income tax eligible for credit against a U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability. If the amount of Chilean Withholding Tax initially withheld from a dividend is determined to be excessive, however (as described above under “Taxation—Chilean Taxation—Cash Dividends and Other Distributions”), the excess tax will not be creditable. For purposes of calculating the foreign tax credit, dividends paid on the common shares will generally constitute foreign source “passive income.” U.S. Holders are not allowed foreign tax credits for withholding taxes imposed in respect of certain short-term or hedged positions in securities and may not be allowed foreign tax credits in respect of arrangements in which their expected economic profit is insubstantial. U.S. Holders should consult their own advisers concerning the implications of these rules in light of their particular circumstances.
 
U.S. Holders that receive distributions of additional common shares or rights to subscribe for common shares as part of a pro rata distribution to all our shareholders generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax in respect of the distributions.
 
Taxation of Capital Gains or Losses
 
If you are a U.S. Holder, gain or loss realized on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of ADSs or common shares, generally will be capital gain or loss and generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the ADSs or common shares have been held for more than one year. Long-term capital gain realized by an individual U.S. Holder generally is subject to preferential tax rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to significant limitations.
 
Any gain or loss a U.S. Holder realizes on such a sale, exchange or other taxable disposition will generally be treated as U.S. source income or loss for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes. Consequently, in the case of a disposition of common shares (which, unlike a disposition of ADSs, could be taxable in Chile), a U.S. Holder generally would not be able to utilize foreign tax credits in respect of any Chilean tax imposed on the disposition (see “Taxation—Chilean Taxation—Capital Gains”) unless the U.S. Holder has other income from foreign sources, in the appropriate category, for purposes of the foreign tax credit limitation rules. U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisers regarding the application of the foreign tax credit limitation rules to their investment in, and disposition of, the ADSs and common shares.
 
Deposits and withdrawals of common shares by U.S. Holders in exchange for ADSs will not result in the realization of gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
 
Backup Withholding and Information Reporting
 
Dividends paid on, and proceeds from the sale or other disposition of, the ADSs or common shares to a U.S. Holder generally may be subject to the information reporting requirements of the Code and may be subject to backup withholding unless the U.S. Holder provides an accurate taxpayer identification number and makes any other required certification or otherwise establishes an exemption. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a U.S. Holder will be allowed as a credit against the U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle the U.S. Holder to a refund, provided that certain required information is timely furnished to the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.
 
A holder that is a foreign corporation or a non-resident alien individual may be required to comply with certification and identification procedures in order to establish its exemption from information reporting and backup withholding.
 
In addition, U.S. Holders should be aware that recently enacted legislation imposes new reporting requirements with respect to investments in certain foreign financial assets, if the aggregate value of all such assets exceeds $50,000.  Investors who fail to report required information could become subject to substantial penalties. Potential investors are encouraged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the possible implications of this legislation on their investment in ADSs or common shares.
 
HOLDERS AND/OR PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS OF ADSs OR COMMON SHARES SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISERS AS TO THE CHILEAN, U.S. FEDERAL INCOME OR OTHER TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF ADSs OR COMMON SHARES, INCLUDING, IN PARTICULAR, THE EFFECT OF ANY NON-U.S., STATE OR LOCAL TAX LAWS.

ITEM 11.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
General
 
Given the nature of its business, LAN is exposed mainly to three market risks:
 
 
·
Jet fuel price fluctuations;
 
 
·
Interest rate fluctuations; and
 
 
·
Exchange rate fluctuations.
 
The level of exposure to these risks is periodically assessed to determine the most effective mechanisms to hedge against them. LAN purchases derivative instruments in foreign markets to offset market risk exposure, typically utilizing a mixture of call options, collar structures and fixed price swaps agreements. LAN does not hold derivative contracts for trading purposes.
 
Risk of Fluctuations in Jet Fuel Prices
 
Jet fuel price fluctuations are largely dependent on supply and demand for crude oil, OPEC decisions, refinery capacities, stock levels of crude oil and geopolitical factors. In order to minimize the risk of jet fuel price fluctuations, LAN hedges against such risk using derivative instruments.
 
Because jet fuel is not traded in organized futures exchanges, there are limited options to hedge against jet fuel price fluctuations. However, LAN deems financial derivative instruments in other commodities such as crude oil or heating oil, useful for decreasing its exposure to jet fuel price increases.
 
LAN uses swaps, calls and collars to hedge against fuel prices fluctuations. Swap contracts allow us to eliminate the volatility risk by fixing the price. In a typical swap contract, LAN is compensated if the market price is above the fixed price at certain predetermined dates or needs to make disbursements if the market price is below the fixed price in those dates. Call options give us protection against rise in prices. Call option are only exercised when the market price is above the predetermined strike price thus providing LAN with protection with no downside risk. Collars are a combination of call and put options that limit the range of possible positive or negative outcomes to a specific price range. Above the predetermined ceiling price, LAN is compensated for the difference between the market price and the ceiling price. For any price below the predetermined floor price, LAN has to disburse the difference between the market price and the floor price.
 
We are exposed to fuel hedging transaction losses if the counterparties default. To manage this credit risk, we select counterparties based on their credit ratings and monitor our relative market position on a daily basis. For more information see “—Our operations are subject to fluctuations in the supply and cost of jet fuel which could materially impact our business” under Item 3.
 
During 2010, 2009 and 2008 we entered into a mix of swaps, calls, zero cost collars and collars option contracts on WTI with investment banks and other financial entities for notional fuel purchases. In 2010, 282.7 million gallons were purchased, which represented 55.5% of our total annual fuel consumption; in 2009, 205.2 million gallons were purchased, which represented 45.7% of our fuel consumption; and in 2008, 218.5 million gallons were purchased, which represented 48.0% of our total fuel consumption. The combined result of these contracts was a gain of US$1 million in 2010, compared to a loss of US$128.7 million in 2009 and a gain of US$35.4 million in 2008. As of December 31, 2010, the fair value of our outstanding fuel related derivative contracts was estimated to be US$45.8 million (asset).

Gains and losses on the hedging contracts outlined above are recognized as a cost of sales in the income statement when the fuel subject to the hedge is consumed. Premiums paid related to fuel derivative contracts are recorded as prepaid expenses (current assets) and amortized over the respective contract periods.
 
Under IFRS, the fair value of the hedging derivatives is booked as a non-current asset or liability if the remaining maturity of the item hedged is over 12 months, and as a current asset or liability if the remaining term of the item hedged is less than 12 months. The fair value of the derivative contracts is deferred within an equity reserve account. Please see Note 2.10 to our audited consolidated financial statements.
 
Sensitivity analysis
 
In order to protect the Company from increases in fuel prices, a portion of the fuel consumption is hedged using a mixture of protective instruments (call, collars) and fixing instruments (swaps). To keep the Company competitive, a portion of the fuel consumption is not hedged, as a drop in fuel prices affects the   Company through a reduction in costs.
 
As the current positions do not represent changes in cash flows but a variation in the exposure to the market value, the Company’s current hedge positions have no impact on income (they are booked as cash flow hedge contracts, so a variation in fuel prices has an impact on the Company’s net equity).
 
The following table shows the sensitivity analysis of the financial instruments reflecting reasonable changes in fuel prices and their effect on equity. The term used for the projection was December 31, 2011, the final date of the last current fuel hedge contract. The calculations were made considering a parallel movement of US$5 per barrel in the curve of the WTI crude futures benchmark price at the end of December 2010, 2009 and 2008.
 
The Company seeks to reduce the risk of increases in fuel price in order to maintain its competitivity, therefore hedging instruments like swaps, options and collars are used to partially hedge against these fuel price fluctuations.

During the periods presented, the Company has not recorded amounts for ineffectiveness in the consolidated income statement pursuant to IAS 39 (IFRS principles for recognizing and measuring financial instruments).
 
Given the fuel hedge structure as of December 31, 2010, which considers a hedge-free portion, a vertical fall by US$ 5 in the WTI benchmark price (the monthly daily average) for each month would have meant savings of approximately US$ 27.1 million in the cost of the Company’s total fuel consumption. A vertical increase by US$ 5 in the WTI benchmark price (the monthly daily average) for each month would have meant an additional cost of approximately US$ 26.0 million of the Company’s total fuel consumption.
 
Risk of Fluctuations in Interest Rates
 
As of December 31, 2010, LAN’s debt amounted to US$2,955 million in interest bearing loans. LAN uses swaps and caps to reduce the impact of an increase of interest rates. As of December 31, 2010, 94% of our outstanding debt was effectively at fixed rate either as fixed rate loans or variable rate loans hedged using a floating to fix rate derivative instrument.
 
 
162

 
 
As of December 31, 2010, 94% of our outstanding debt was subject to a fixed rate either through a fixed rate loan converting floating rate payment obligations to fixed rate obligations.
 
Given the percentage of our outstanding debt that is hedged and the instruments that we use to hedge, an increase in interest rates has no material impact on LAN’s costs. Under an interest rate swap contract, given the case of decreases in interest rates, LAN has to pay compensation equal to the difference between the fixed and floating rate times the outstanding debt under the specific contract. However, under such contracts the interest rate has a floor preventing LAN from incurring major financial losses.
 
In May 2001, we entered into six swap contracts in order to hedge our floating rate-exposure on US$331 million of our debt. Pursuant to these contracts, we pay or receive, depending on the case, the difference between the agreed fixed rate and the floating rate, calculated on the notional amount of each contract. In October 2005, the Company entered into two interest rate swap contracts in order to hedge the LIBOR exposure of the financing of two Airbus A319 aircraft delivered in 2005.
 
In July 2003, we purchased four interest rate cap contracts for a total notional amount of US$127.7 million. These caps are intended to limit the Company’s exposure arising from variable-rate debt. These contracts qualify as cash flow hedges with no ineffectiveness associated to them due to the fact that all critical terms of the debt and the caps match perfectly.  As of December 31, 2010, the fair value of these contracts has been estimated at US$102.7 thousand.
 
In July 2003, the Company purchased two additional interest rate cap contracts. These caps are intended to limit the exposure of LIBOR-linked operational lease payments on aircraft received during 2004. As of December 2010, the fair value of these contracts at year-end amounted to US$142.4 thousand.
 
In April 2004, the Company purchased two additional interest rate Cap contracts. These caps are intended to limit the exposure of LIBOR-linked operational lease payments on aircraft received during 2005.  As of December 31, 2010, the fair value of these contracts at year-end amounted to US$176.1 thousand.
 
In 2005, the Company purchased three additional interest rate Cap contracts. These contracts are intended to limit the exposure of LIBOR-linked financing on aircraft delivered in 2005 and 2006. As of December 31, 2010, the fair value of these contracts at year-end amounted US$0.84 thousand.
 
The premiums paid on the cap were allocated to individual caplets and recognized in the income statement throughout the term of each contract. Under IAS 39 these derivatives qualify as cash flow hedges even though some ineffectiveness exists as the notional amount over which some caps are calculated is different from the one used to determine the interest and lease payments on the aircraft. For IFRS purposes, there was no amount of ineffectiveness recorded in earnings because the change in fair value of the perfect hypothetical option was greater than the change in the fair value of the Company’s option.
 
In the first half of 2006, the Company also entered into ten fixed-floating interest rate swap contracts in order to hedge the variable interest payments on the unhedged portion of existing debt of approximately US$46.7 million. Additionally, in May 2006 the Company entered into thirty-two forward starting interest rate swap contracts in order to hedge the LIBOR exposure of the financing of thirty-two A320-Family Aircraft to be delivered between 2006 and 2009. Of these thirty-two contracts, twenty-five were contracted directly with the debt provider, while the remaining seven swaps were contracted with a different institution. In 2009 all of the thirty-two aircraft were delivered to the Company.  Of those, twenty-five were converted into fixed interest rate debt.
 
In June 2006 the Company entered into eleven forward starting interest rate swap contracts in order to hedge the LIBOR exposure of the financing of 11 Boeing 767-300 ER aircraft to be delivered between 2006 and 2009. All of those aircraft have already been delivered to the Company, and the corresponding swap and loan were restructured into fixed rate debt.
 
 
163

 
 
In August 2007 the Company entered into three forward starting interest rate swaps contracts in order to hedge the LIBOR exposure of the debt financing of three Boeing 767-300 ER aircraft to be delivered in 2009. This debt allows for conversion of the variable interest rate loan into fixed interest rate debt by capital markets financing after the arrival of the aircraft. As of February 28, 2011, the three aircraft had been delivered to the Company. The first aircraft was refinanced through a fixed interest rate bond issued in December 2009, the second was refinanced through a fixed interest rate bond issued in June 2010 and the third was refinanced through a fixed interest rate bond issued in April 2010. In September 2007, the Company entered into another three forward starting interest rate swaps contracts in order to hedge the LIBOR exposure of the financing of three Airbus A320-Family Aircraft to be delivered in 2010.
 
In June 2008, the Company entered into fourteen forward starting interest rate swaps contracts in order to hedge the LIBOR exposure of the financing of 12 A320-Family Aircraft to be delivered in 2010 and 2011, two Boeing 767-300 aircraft to be delivered in 2011 and two Boeing 787-8 to be delivered in 2012.
 
As of December 31, 2010, the fair value of all the aforementioned interest rate swaps was estimated to be a negative US$119.0 million.
 
Under IFRS, the positive fair value of these interest rate swaps is reflected in the balance sheet as hedging assets and the negative fair value of these agreements is reflected as hedging liabilities.
 
The utilization of the aforementioned hedging instruments, combined with fixed interest rate financing for two Boeing 767-300 F aircraft delivered in 2001, 17 Boeing 767-300 Passenger and Freighter aircraft delivered in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009 and 32 Airbus A320-Family Aircraft delivered in 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009, has enabled the Company to have a predictable interest rate costs, reducing the cash volatility. As of December 2010, the average interest rate of all of our outstanding interest-bearing long-term debt rate was 5.0%.
 
The following table summarizes our principal payment obligations on our interest-bearing long-term debt and capital leases as of December 31, 2010 and the related average interest rates. The average interest rates for U.S. dollar liabilities are calculated based on the prevailing interest rate on December 31, 2010 for each loan.

Changes in market conditions produce a change in the valuation of current financial instruments hedging against fluctuations in interest rates, causing an effect on the Company’s equity (because they are booked as cash-flow hedges). These changes are considered reasonably possible based on current market conditions. The calculations were made vertically increasing (decreasing) 100 basis points of the three-month Libor futures curve.

There are market-related limitations in the method used for the sensitivity analysis. These limitations derive from the fact that the levels indicated by the futures curves may not be necessarily met and may change in each period.
 
Risk of Variation in Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
 
LAN sells most of its services in U.S. dollars (or prices equivalent to the U.S. dollar), and a large part of its expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars (or its equivalents), particularly fuel costs, aeronautic charges, aircraft leases, insurance and aircraft components and accessories. Of the Total expenses, the main item denominated in local currencies is Remunerations. During 2010, 85% of our operating revenues and 60% of our operating expenses were denominated in U.S. dollars. However, because we conduct business in local currencies in several countries, we face the risk of variations in foreign currency exchange rates. A depreciation of the Chilean peso, the Brazilian real, the Argentine peso, the Mexican peso, the Peruvian nuevo sol, the Venezuelan bolivar or the euro against the U.S. dollar could have an adverse effect on us as part of our revenues and receivables are denominated in those currencies. LAN has entered into currency forward contracts in order to convert its deposit in Chilean pesos to U.S. dollars. As of December 31, 2010 we had foreign exchange forward contracts for a notional amount of US$169 million with a market negative value of US$14 million.
 
During the first half of 2009, the Company entered into cross currency swaps for a notional amount of US$ 171 million, in order to hedge significant variation of the cash flows associated to the current interest rate and the dolar-peso exchange rate of the bank loan. For accounting purposes, the market value of this position was reflected as a hedging asset, with a market value of positive US$27 million as of December 31, 2010.

12.D.3 Fees and Charges for ADR Holders
 
The Bank of New York Mellon, as depositary, collects its fees for delivery and surrender of ADSs directly from investors depositing shares or surrendering ADSs 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 the distributable property to pay the fees. The depositary may also collect its annual fee for depositary services by deductions from cash distributions, 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.
 
Persons depositing or withdrawing shares must pay:
 
For:
     
US$5.00 (or less) per 100 ADSs (or portion of 100 ADSs)
 
•   Issuance of ADSs, including issuances resulting from a distribution of shares or rights or other property
   
•   Cancellation of ADSs for the purpose of withdrawal, including if the deposit agreement terminates
     
US$.02 (or less) per ADS
 
• Any cash distribution to ADS registered holders
     
A fee equivalent to the fee that would be payable if securities distributed had been shares and the shares had been deposited for issuance of ADSs
 
• Distribution of securities distributed to holders of deposited securities which are distributed by the depositary to ADS registered holders
     
US$.02 (or less) per ADSs per calendar year

12.D.4 Fees and Direct and Indirect Payments Made by the Depositary to the Foreign Issuer

Past Fees and Payments

During 2010, the Company received from the depositary $420,871.53 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.

Future Fees and Payments

The depositary has agreed to reimburse the Company for expenses incurred by the Company in connection with the establishment and maintenance of the ADS 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. The depositary has also agreed to annually reimburse the Company for certain investor relationship programs or special investor relationship 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 such reimbursements is not necessarily tied to the amount of fees the depositary collects from investors.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
(a)           Controls and Procedures. We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2010. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Based upon our evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures, as of December 31, 2010, were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the applicable rules and forms, and that it is accumulated and communicated to our management including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
(b)           Management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting.
 
The management of the Company, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, as amended.
 
The Company’s 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. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting 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 acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
 
167

 
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.  Lan Airlines’ management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, has assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s 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 (“COSO”) and, based on such criteria, Lan Airlines’ management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting effectiveness as of December 31, 2010 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers Consultores, Auditores y Companía Limitada, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report included herein.
 
(c)           Attestation report of the registered public accounting firm. See page F-2 of our audited consolidated financial statements.
 
(d)           Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
 
New York Stock Exchange Corporate Governance Comparison
 
Pursuant to Section 303A.11 of the Listed Company Manual of the The New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), we are required to provide a summary of the significant ways in which our corporate governance practices differ from those required for U.S. companies under the NYSE listing standards.  We are a Chilean corporation with shares listed on the Santiago Stock Exchange, the Chilean Electronic Exchange and the Valparaiso Stock Exchange and ADSs on the NYSE.  Our corporate governance practices are governed by our bylaws, the Chilean Corporation Law and the Securities Market Law.
 
The table below discloses the significant differences between our corporate governance practices and the NYSE standards.
 
NYSE Standards
 
Our Corporate Governance Practice
     
Director Independence.  Majority of board of directors must be independent.  §303A.01
 
Under Chilean law, we are not required to have a majority of independent directors on our board.

 
169

 

NYSE Standards
 
Our Corporate Governance Practice
     
   
Our board of directors’ committee (all of whom are members of our board of directors) is composed of three directors, two of whom must be independent if we have a sufficient number of independent directors on our board.
     
   
The definition of independence applicable to us pursuant to the Chilean Corporation Law differs in certain respects from the definition applicable to U.S. issuers under the NYSE rules.
     
   
Pursuant to Law No. 20,382 on Corporate Governance, which came into effect on January 1, 2010, we are also required to have at least one independent director.
      
Until January 1, 2010, under the Chilean Corporation Law, a director was deemed to be independent if such member would have been elected as a Director at the Shareholders Meeting after excluding the votes of any controlling shareholder or party related to it.
         
Starting on January 1, 2010, directors are deemed to be independent if they have not fallen within any of the following categories during the 18 months prior to their election: (i) had a relevant relationship, interest or dependence on us, our subsidiaries, controlling shareholders, main executives, or had served any of the foregoing in a senior position; (ii) had a close family relationship with any of the individuals indicated in (i); (iii) had served in a non-profit organization which received significant funds from the individuals indicated in (i); (iv) had been a partner or shareholder (with a direct or indirect participation in excess of 10%) in, or had a senior position at a company which has rendered significant services to, the individuals indicated in (i); (v) had been a partner or shareholder (with a direct or indirect participation in excess of 10%) in, or had a senior position at, our main competitors, suppliers or clients. In addition, the election of such an independent director is subject to a procedure set forth by the cited Corporation Law.
     
Executive Sessions. Non-management directors must meet regularly in executive sessions without management. Independent directors should meet alone in an executive session at least once a year. §303A.03
 
There is no similar requirement under our bylaws or under applicable Chilean law.
     
Audit committee. Audit committee satisfying the independence and other requirements of Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act, as amended, and the more stringent requirements under the NYSE standards is required. §§303A.06, 303A.07
 
We are in compliance with Rule 10A-3. We are not required to satisfy the NYSE independence and other audit committee standards that are not prescribed by Rule 10A-3.
     
Nominating/corporate governance committee. Nominating/corporate governance committee of independent directors is required. The committee must have a charter specifying the purpose, duties and evaluation procedures of the committee. § 303A.04
 
We are not required to have, and do not have, a nominating/corporate governance committee.

 
170

 

NYSE Standards
 
Our Corporate Governance Practice
     
Compensation committee. Compensation committee of independent directors is required, which must approve executive officer compensation. The committee must have a charter specifying the purpose, duties and evaluation procedures of the committee. §303A.05
 
We are not required to have a compensation committee. Pursuant to the Chilean Corporation Law, our board of directors’ committee must approve our senior management and employee’s compensation.
     
Equity compensation plans. Equity compensation plans require shareholder approval, subject to limited exemptions.
 
Under the Chilean Corporation Law, equity compensation plans require shareholder approval.
     
Code of Ethics. Corporate governance guidelines and a code of business conduct and ethics is required, with disclosure of any waiver for directors or executive officers. §303A.10
 
We have adopted a code of ethics and conduct applicable to our senior management, including our chief executive officer, our chief financial officer and our chief accounting officer, as well as to other employees. Our code is freely available online at our website, www.lan.com, under the heading “Corporate Governance” in the Investor Relations informational page. In addition, upon written request, by regular mail to Lan Airlines S.A., Investor Relations Department, attention: Investor Relations, Av. Presidente Riesco 5711, Piso 20, Comuna Las Condes, Santiago, Chile or by e-mail at Investor.Relations@lan.com, we will provide any person with a copy of our code of ethics without charge. We are required by Item 16B of Form 20-F to disclose any waivers granted to our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, principal accounting officer and persons performing similar functions.

The disclosure of the significant ways in which our corporate governance practices differ from those required for U.S. companies under the New York Stock Exchange listing standards is also posted on our website and can be accessed at www.lan.com.

ITEM 18.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
In accordance with SVS’s regulations, Chile started a process to adopt IFRS for all public companies with significant market presence over a three-year period from 2009 to 2011, as follows:
 
 
·
January 1, 2009: major listed (open) companies were required to report under IFRS (i.e. 2009 financial statements had to be prepared using IFRS and had to include 2008 comparative information using IFRS).

·
January 1, 2010: smaller listed (open) companies, insurance companies, mutual funds, pension funds, stock brokers and dealers, insurance agents, companies that issue publicly traded debt securities, and large listed (open) companies that were unable to move to IFRS in 2009; and

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Lan Airlines S.A.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lan Airlines S.A. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2010 and 2009 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010 in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.  Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).  The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 15.  Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits.  We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.  Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk.  Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
 
A company’s 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 company’s internal control over financial reporting 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 acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
 
F-2

 
 
 
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.

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to use its judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies. Note 4 shows the areas that imply a greater degree of judgment or complexity or the areas where the assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements.

2.2.    Consolidation
 
(a)
Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are all the entities (including special-purpose entities) over which the Company has the power to control the financial and operating policies, which are generally accompanied by a holding of more than half of the voting rights. In evaluating whether the Company controls another entity, the existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered. The subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is passed to the Company and they are excluded from the consolidation on the date they cease to be so controlled.

The Company uses the acquisition-cost method or purchase accounting for the purchase of subsidiaries. The cost of acquisition is the fair value of the assets delivered, the equity instruments issued and the liabilities incurred or assumed on the exchange date. The identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are initially valued at their fair value on the date of acquisition, regardless of the extent of the non-controlling interests. The excess of the acquisition cost over the fair value of the Company’s holding in the net identifiable assets acquired is shown as goodwill. If the cost is less than the fair value of the net assets of the acquired subsidiary, the difference is recorded directly in the consolidated statement of income (Note 2.6).

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealized gains on transactions between the Company’s entities are eliminated. Unrealized losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment loss of the asset transferred. When necessary in order to ensure uniformity with the policies adopted by the Company, the accounting policies of the subsidiaries are modified.
 
(b) 
Transactions and minority holdings

The Group applies the policy of considering transactions with non-controlling interests, when not related to loss of control, as equity transactions without an effect on income.

(c)
Investees or associates

Investees or associates are all entities over which Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries exercise a significant influence but has no control, this usually arise by a holding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in associates are booked using the equity method and are initially recorded at their cost.

The participation of Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries in the losses or gains after the acquisition of its investees or associates is shown in results, and its participation in post acquisition movements in reserves of investees or associates are shown in reserves. Post-acquisition movement is adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. When the participation of Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries in the losses of an investee or associate is equal to or more than its holding in it, including any other non guaranteed account receivable, Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries will not show the additional losses unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the investee or associate.

Gains or losses for dilution in investees or associates are shown in the consolidated statement of income.
 
2.3.
Foreign currency transactions
 
(a)      Presentation and functional currencies

The items included in the financial statements of each of the entities of Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries are valued using the currency of the main economic environment in which the entity operates (the functional currency). The functional currency of Lan Airlines S.A. is the United States dollar which is also the currency of presentation of the consolidated financial statements of Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries.

 
F-19

 
 
 
(b)
Transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated to the functional currency using the exchange rates on the transaction dates. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from the liquidation of these transactions and from the translation at the closing exchange rates of the monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are shown in the consolidated statement of income.
 
(c)
Group entities

The results and financial position of all the Group entities (none of which has the currency of a hyper-inflationary economy) that have a functional currency other than the currency of presentation are translated to the currency of presentation as follows:

(i)
Assets and liabilities of each consolidated statement of financial position presented are translated at the closing exchange rate on the consolidated statement of financial position date;
(ii)
The revenues and expenses of each results account are translated at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates,
(iii)
All the resultant exchange differences are shown as a separate component in net equity.

In the consolidation, exchange differences arising from the translation of a net investment in foreign entities (or local with a functional currency different to that of the parent), and of loans and other foreign currency instruments designated as hedges for these investments, are recorded within net equity. When the investment is sold, these exchange differences are shown in the consolidated statement of income as part of the loss or gain on the sale.

Adjustments to the goodwill and fair value arising from the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and are translated at the period-end exchange rate.
 
2.4.
Property, plant and equipment
 
The land of Lan Airlines S.A. and Subsidiaries is recognized at cost less any accumulated impairment loss. The rest of the property, plant and equipment is shown, initially and subsequently, at historic cost less the corresponding depreciation and any impairment loss, except for certain land and minor equipment that were  revalued on first time adoption of IFRS.
 
The amounts of advance payments to aircraft manufacturers are capitalized by the Company under Construction in progress until receipt of the aircraft.
Subsequent costs (replacement of components, improvements, extensions, etc.) are included in the value of the initial asset or shown as a separate asset only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the elements of property, plant and equipment are going to flow to the Company and the cost of the element can be determined reliably. The value of the component replaced is written off in the books at the time of replacement. The rest of the repairs and maintenance are charged to the result of the year in which they are incurred.

Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over their estimated technical useful lives; except in the case of certain technical components which are depreciated on the basis of cycles and hours flown.
The residual value and useful life of assets is revised, and adjusted if necessary, once a year.

When the carrying amount of an asset is higher than its estimated recoverable amount, its value is reduced immediately to its recoverable amount (Note 2.8).

Losses and gains on the sale of property, plant and equipment are calculated by comparing the proceeds obtained with the book value and are included in the consolidated statement of income.
 
 
F-20

 
 
 
2.5.
Intangible assets
 
Computer software

Licenses for computer software acquired are capitalized on the basis of the costs incurred in acquiring them and preparing them for using the specific software. These costs are amortized over their estimated useful lives.

Expenses related to the development or maintenance of computer software which do not qualify for capitalization, are shown as an expense when incurred. Certain costs directly related to the production of unique and identifiable computer software controlled by the Company, are shown as intangible assets when met all the criteria for capitalization. The direct costs include the expenses of the personnel who develop the computer software and other costs directly associated.

Development costs of computer software shown as assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives.
 
 
F-21

 
 
 
2.6.
Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the Company’s participation in the net identifiable assets of the subsidiary on the acquisition date. Goodwill related to acquisitions of subsidiaries is not amortized but tested for impairment annually and when there are indications that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Gains and losses on the sale of an entity include the book amount of the goodwill related to the entity sold.

2.7.
Borrowing costs

Interest costs incurred for the construction of any qualified asset are capitalized over the time necessary for completing and preparing the asset for its intended use. Other interest costs are charged to income and expenses.

2.8.
Losses for impairment of non-financial assets

Assets that have an indefinite useful life, and developing IT projects, are not subject to amortization and are subject to annual testing for impairment losses. Assets subject to amortization are subjected to impairment tests whenever any event or change in circumstances indicates that the book value of the assets may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recorded when the book value is greater than the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. In evaluating the impairment, the assets are grouped at the lowest level for which cash flows are separately identifiable (CGUs). Non-financial assets other than goodwill that have suffered an impairment loss are subjected to a test once a year to check that there has been no reversal of the loss.

2.9.
Financial assets

The Company classifies its financial instruments in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit and loss, loans and accounts receivable and financial assets held to maturity. The classification depends on the purpose for which the financial instruments were acquired. Management determines the classification of its financial instruments at the time of initial recognition, which occurs on the date of transition.

(a)
Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are financial instruments held for trading and those in their initial classification has been designated as at fair value through profit or loss. A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired mainly for the purpose of being sold in the near future or when these assets are managed and measured using  fair value. Derivatives are also classified as acquired for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Assets in this category are classified as cash and cash equivalents, held for trading, and other financial assets, designated on initial recognition.

(b)
Loans and accounts receivable

Loans and accounts receivable are non-derivative financial instruments with fixed or determinable payments not traded on an active market. These items are classified in current assets except for those with maturity over 12 months from the date of the consolidated statement of financial position, which are classified as non-current assets. Loans and accounts receivable are included in trade and other accounts receivable in the consolidated statement of financial position (Note 2.12).
 
 
F-22

 
 
 
(c)
Financial assets held to maturity

Financial assets held to maturity are non-derivative financial instruments with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the Company’s management has the positive intention and capacity to hold until their maturity. Should the Company sell a not-insignificant amount of the financial assets held to their maturity, the whole category is reclassified as available for sale. These financial instruments held to maturity  are included in non-current assets, except for those maturity equal to or less than 12 months from the consolidated statement of financial position, which are classified as other current financial assets.

Regular purchases and sales of financial assets are recognized on the trade-date – the date on which the group commits to purchase or sell the asset. Investments are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at fair value, and transaction costs are expensed in the income statement. Financial assets are derecognized when the rights to receive cash flows from the investments have expired or have been transferred and the group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership. Financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are subsequently carried at fair value. Loans and receivables are subsequently carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Held to maturity investments are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest rate.

The company valued at the date of each consolidated statement of financial position if there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets may have suffered an impairment loss. For the case of financial assets held to maturity, if any evidence of impairment, the amount of the provision is  the difference between the book value of the assets and the present value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate.

2.10.
Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities

Derivatives are booked initially at fair value on the date the derivative contracts are signed and later they continue to be valued at their fair value. The method for booking the resultant loss or gain depends on whether the derivative has been designated as a hedging instrument and, if so, the nature of the item hedged. The Company designates certain derivatives as:

(a)
Hedge of the fair value of recognized assets (fair value hedge);

(b)
Hedge of an identified risk associated with a recognized liability or an expected highly-probable transaction (cash-flow hedge), or

(c)
Derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting.

The Company documents, at the inception of each transaction, the relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item, as well as its objectives for managing risk and the strategy for carrying out various hedging transaction. The Company also documents its assessment, both at the beginning and on an ongoing basis, as to whether the derivatives used in the hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting the changes in the fair value or cash flows of the items being hedged.

The total fair value of the hedging derivatives is booked as an other non-current financial asset or liability if the remaining maturity of the item hedged is over 12 months, and as an other current financial asset or liability if the remaining term of the item hedged is less than 12 months.
Derivatives not booked as hedges are classified as other financial assets or liabilities, current in the case that their remaining maturity is less than 12 months and non-current in the case that it is more than 12 months.
 
 
F-23

 
 
 
(a)
Fair value hedges

Changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as fair value hedges are shown in the consolidated statement of income, together with any change in the fair value of the asset or liability hedged that is attributable to the risk being hedged.

(b)
Cash flow hedges

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is shown in net equity. The loss or gain relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the consolidated statement of income under “Other gains (losses)”.

In the case of variable interest-rate hedges, this means that the amounts recognized in equity are reclassified to results within financial cost at the same time the associated debts accrue interest.

For fuel price hedges, the amounts shown in equity are reclassified to income as Cost of sales to the extent that the fuel subject to the hedge is used.

When hedging instruments mature or are sold or when they do not meet the requirements to be accounted for as hedges, any gain or loss accumulated in net equity until that moment remains in equity and is reclassified to the consolidated statement of income when the hedged transaction is finally recognized. When it is expected that the hedged transaction is no longer going to occur, the gain or loss accumulated in net equity is taken immediately to the consolidated statement of income as “Other gains (losses)”.

(c)
Derivatives not booked as a hedge

Certain derivatives are not booked as a hedge. The changes in fair value of any derivative instrument that is not booked as a hedge are shown immediately in the consolidated statement of income, in “Other gains (losses)”.

2.11.
Inventories

Inventories, detailed in note 10, are shown at the lower of cost and their net realizable value. The cost is determined on the basis of the weighted average cost method. The net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, less estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

2.12.
Trade and other accounts receivable

Trade accounts receivable are shown initially at their fair value and later at their amortized cost in accordance with the effective interest rate method, less the allowance for impairment losses.  An allowance for impairment losses of trade accounts receivable is made when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to recover all the amounts due according to the original terms of the accounts receivable. The existence of significant financial difficulties on the part of the debtor, the probability that the debtor is entering bankruptcy or financial reorganization and the default or delay in making payments are considered as indicators that the receivable has been impaired. The amount of the provision is the difference between the book value of the assets and the present value of the estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. The book value of the asset is reduced by the amount of the allowance and the loss is shown in the consolidated statement of income in Cost of sales. When an account receivable is written off, it is charged to the allowance account for accounts receivable.
 
 
F-24

 
 
 
2.13.           Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash and bank balances, time deposits in financial institutions, and other short-term and easily-liquidated investments.

2.14.
Capital

The common shares are classified as net equity.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issuance of new shares or options are shown in net equity as a deduction from the proceeds obtained.

2.15.
Trade and other accounts payable

Trade payables and other accounts payables are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently at amortized cost are valued according to the method of the effective interest rate

2.16.           Interest-bearing loans

Financial liabilities are shown initially at their fair value, net of the costs incurred in the transaction. Later, these financial liabilities are valued at their amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds obtained (net of the necessary arrangement costs) and the repayment value, is shown in the consolidated statement of income during the term of the debt, according to the effective interest rate method.

Financial liabilities are classified in current and non-current liabilities according to the contractual payment dates of the nominal principal.

2.17.
Deferred taxes

Deferred taxes are calculated, according to the balance-sheet method, on the temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their book values. However, if the temporary differences arise from the initial recognition of a liability or an asset in a transaction different from a business combination that at the time of the transaction does not affect the accounting result or the tax gain or loss, they are not booked. The deferred tax is determined using the tax rates (and laws), that have been enacted or substantially enacted at the end of the reporting period, and are expected to apply when the related deferred tax asset is realized or the deferred tax liability discharged.

Deferred tax assets are recognised when it is probable that there will be sufficient future tax earnings with which to compensate the temporary differences.

Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except for deferred income tax liability where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

2.18.
Employee benefits

(a)
Personnel vacations

The Company recognizes the expense for personnel vacations on an accrual basis.

(b)
Share-based compensation

The compensation plans implemented by the granting of options for the subscription and payment of shares are shown in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS 2: Share based payments, showing the effect of the fair value of the options granted as a charge to remuneration on a straight-line basis between the date of granting such options and the date on which these become vested.
 
 
F-25

 
 
 
(c)
Post-employment and other long-term benefits

Provisions are made for these obligations by the application of the actuarial value of the accrued cost of the benefit method, and take into account estimates of future permanence, mortality rates and future wage increases determined on the basis of actuarial calculations. The discount rates are determined by reference to market interest-rate curves. Actuarial gains or losses are shown in results for the period when they occur.

(d)
Incentives

The Company has an annual incentives plan for its personnel for compliance with objectives and individual contribution to the results. The incentives eventually granted consist of a given number or portion of monthly remuneration and the provision is made on the basis of the amount estimated for distribution.

2.19.
Provisions

Provisions are recognised when:

(i)
The Company has a present legal or implicit obligation as a result of past events.

(ii)
It is probable that some payment is going to be necessary to settle an obligation, and

(iii)
The amount has been reliably estimated.

Provisions are shown at the present value of the disbursements expected to be necessary for settling the obligation using the Company’s best estimates. The pre-tax discount rate used for determining the present value reflects current market evaluations on the date of the financial statements of the time value of money, plus the specific risks related to the liability in question.

 
F-26

 
 
 
2.20.
Revenue recognition

Revenues include the fair value of the proceeds received or to be received on sales of goods and rendering services in the ordinary course of the Company’s business. Revenues are shown net of refunds, rebates and discounts.

(a)
Rendering of services

 
a.1
Passenger and cargo transport

The Company shows revenue from the transportation of passengers and cargo once the service has been provided.

 
a.2
Frequent flyer program

The Company currently has a frequent flyer program called Lan Pass, whose objective is customer loyalty through the delivery of kilometers every time that members fly with the Company or its alliance partners, use the services of entities registered with the program or make purchases with an associated credit card. The kilometers earned can be exchanged for flights tickets or other services of associated entities. The consolidated financial statements include liabilities for this concept (deferred income), according to the estimate of the valuation established for the kilometers accumulated pending use at that date, in accordance with IFRIC 13: Customer loyalty programs.

 
a.3
Other revenues

The Company records revenues for other services when these have been provided.

(b)
Interest income

Interest income is booked using the effective interest rate method.

(c)
Dividend income

Dividend income is booked when the right to receive the payment is established.

2.21.
Leases

(a)
When the Company is the lessee – financial lease

The Company leases certain property, plant and equipment in which it has substantially all the risk and benefits deriving from the ownership; they are therefore classified as financial leases. Financial leases are capitalized at the start of the lease at the lower of the fair value of the asset leased and the present value of the minimum lease payments.

Every lease payment is separated between the liability component and the financial expenses so as to obtain a constant interest rate over the outstanding amount of the debt. The corresponding leasing obligations, net of financial charges, are included in Interest-bearing loans. The element of interest in the financial cost is charged in the consolidated statement of income over the lease period so that it produces a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. The asset acquired under a financial lease is depreciated over the shorter of its useful life and the lease term and is included in Property, plant and equipment.
 
 
F-27

 
 
 
(b)
When the Company is the lessee – operating lease

Leases, in which the lessor retains an important part of the risks and benefits deriving from ownership, are classified as operating leases. Payments with respect to operating leases (net of any incentive received from the lessor) are charged in the consolidated statement of income on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

2.22.
Non-current assets (or disposal groups) classified as held for sale

Non-current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as assets held for sale and are shown at the lesser of their book value and the fair value less costs to sell.

2.23.
Maintenance

 The costs incurred for scheduled major maintenance of the aircraft’s fuselage and engines are capitalized and depreciated until the next maintenance. The depreciation rate is determined on technical grounds, according to its use expressed based on cycles and flight hours.

The unscheduled maintenances of aircraft and engines, and minor maintenances, are charged to income as incurred.

2.24.
Environmental costs

Disbursements related to environmental protection are charged to income when incurred.

NOTE 3 - FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

3.1.
Financial risk factors

The Company’s activities are exposed to different financial risks: (a) market risk, (b) credit risk, and (c) liquidity risk. The Company’s global risk management program is focused on uncertainty in the financial markets and tries to minimize the potential adverse effects on the net margin. The Company uses derivatives to hedge part of these risks.

(a)
Market risk

Due to the nature of its operations, the Company is exposed to market risks such as:

(i) fuel-price risk, (ii) interest-rate risk, and (iii) local exchange-rate risk. In order to fully or partially hedge all these risks, the Company operates with derivative instruments to fix or limit rises in the underlying assets.

(i)
Fuel-price risk:

Fluctuations in fuel prices largely depend on the global supply and demand for oil, decisions taken by Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), global refining capacity, stock levels maintained, and weather and geopolitical factors.

The Company purchases an aircraft fuel called Jet Fuel grade 54. There is a benchmark price in the international market for this underlying asset, which is US Gulf Coast Jet 54. However, the futures market for this asset has a low liquidity index and as a result the Company hedges its exposure using West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude, which has a high correlation with Jet Fuel and is a highly liquid asset and therefore has advantages in comparison to the use of the U.S. Gulf Coast Jet 54 index.

During 2010, the Company booked gains of US$ 1 million on fuel hedging. During 2009, the Company recognized losses of US$ 128.7 million for the same reason.

At December 31, 2010, the market value of its fuel positions amounted to US$ 45.8 million.  At the December 31, 2009, this market value was US$ 13.6 million. The following tables show the notional value of the purchase positions together with the derivatives contracted for the different periods:

Sensitivity analysis

A drop in fuel prices positively affects the Company through a reduction in costs. However, this drop negatively affects contracted positions as these are to protect the Company against the risk of a rise in prices. The policy therefore is to maintain a hedge-free percentage in order to be competitive in the event of a drop in prices.

As the current positions do not represent changes in cash flows, but a variation in the exposure to the market value, the current hedge positions have no impact on income (they are booked as cash flow hedge contracts, so a variation in the fuel price has an impact on the Company’s net equity).

The following table shows the sensitivity analysis of the financial instruments according to reasonable changes in the fuel price and their effect on equity. The term of the projection was defined until the end of the last current fuel hedge contract, being the last business day of 2011. The calculations were made considering a parallel movement of US$ 5 per barrel in the curve of the WTI crude futures benchmark price at the end of December 2010, and 2009.

The Company seeks to reduce the risk of fuel price rises to ensure it is not left at a disadvantage compared to its competitors in the event of a sharp price fall. The Company therefore uses hedge instruments like swaps, options and collars to partially hedge the fuel volumes consumed.

According to that required by IAS 39, during the periods presented, the company has not recorded amounts for ineffectiveness in the consolidated income statement.

Given the fuel hedge structure to December 31, 2010, which considers a hedge-free portion, a vertical fall by US$ 5 in the WTI benchmark price (the monthly daily average) for each month would have meant a saving of approximately US$ 27.1 million in the cost of total fuel consumption. A vertical rise by US$ 5 in the WTI benchmark price (the monthly daily average) would have meant an impact of approximately US$ 26.0 million of increased fuel costs for 2010.

(ii)
Cash flow interest-rate risk:

The fluctuation in interest rates depends heavily on the state of the global economy. An improvement in long-term economic prospects moves long-term rates upward while a drop causes a decline through market effects. However, if we consider government intervention in periods of economic recession, it is usual to reduce interest rates to stimulate aggregate demand by making credit more accessible and increasing production (in the same way interest rates are raised at times of economic expansion). The present uncertainty about how the market and governments will react, and thus how interest rates will change, creates a risk related to the Company’s debt at floating interest rates and its investments.

 
F-30

 
 
 
Cash flow interest rate risk equates to the risk of future cash flows of the financial instruments due to the fluctuation in interest rates on the market. The Company’s exposure to risks of changes in market interest rates is mainly related to long-term obligations which accrued interest at a floating rate.

In order to reduce the risk of an eventual rise in interest rates, the Company has signed interest-rate swap and call option contracts in order to eliminate more than 94% of its exposure to interest-rate fluctuations. The Company is therefore exposed to a small portion of the fluctuations in the 90 days London Inter Bank Offer Rate (LIBOR) and the nominal Chilean Active Banking Rate (TAB) 180-day rate.

The following table shows the sensitivity of changes in financial obligations that are not hedged against interest-rate variations.  These changes are considered reasonably possible based on current market conditions.

Changes in market conditions produce a change in the valuation of current financial instruments hedging interest rates, causing an effect on the Company’s equity (because they are booked as cash-flow hedges). These changes are considered reasonably possible based on current market conditions. The calculations were made increasing (decreasing) vertically 100 basis points of the three-month Libor futures curve.

There are limitations in the method used for the sensitivity analysis and relate to those provided by the market. These are because the levels indicated by the futures curves are not necessarily met and will change in each period.

According to that required by IAS 39, during the periods presented, the company has not recorded amounts for ineffectiveness in the consolidated income statement.

(iii) 
Local exchange-rate risk:

The functional currency used by the parent Company is the US dollar in terms of setting prices for its services, the composition of its classified statements of financial position and effects on its operating income. It sells most of its services in US dollars or prices equivalent to the US dollar, and a large part of its expenses are denominated in US dollars or equivalents of the US dollar, particularly fuel costs, aeronautic charges, aircraft leases, insurance and aircraft components and accessories. Remuneration expenses are denominated in local currencies.

The Company maintains its cargo and passenger business tariffs in US dollars. There is a mix in the domestic markets as sales in Peru are in local currency but the prices are indexed to the US dollar. In Chile and Argentina, tariffs are in local currency without any kind of indexation. In the case of the domestic business in Ecuador, both tariffs and sales are in dollars. The Company is therefore exposed to fluctuations in the different currencies, mainly: Chilean peso, Argentine peso, Uruguayan peso, Peruvian sol, Brazilian real, Australian dollar and New Zealand dollar; of these, the largest exposure is in Chilean pesos.
 
 
F-31

 
 
 
The company manages its exposure to foreign currency risk through hedging selected balances using forward exchange contracts and cross currency swaps. The impact of remaining, unhedged exposures is monitored on an ongoing basis and for the periods presented has not been relevant to the company’s results.

(b)
Credit risk

Credit risk occurs when the counterparty to a financial agreement or instrument fails to discharge an obligation due.

The Company is exposed to credit risk due to its operative and financial activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, investments in other kinds of instruments, exchange-rate transactions and the contracting of derivative instruments or options.

(i)
Financial activities

Cash surpluses that remain after the financing of assets necessary for the operation are invested according to credit limits approved by the Company’s board, mainly in time deposits with different financial institutions, short-term mutual funds, and easily-liquidated corporate and sovereign bonds with short remaining maturities. These investments are booked as cash and cash equivalents and as investments held to maturity.

In order to reduce counterparty risk and to ensure that the risk assumed is known and managed by the Company, investments are diversified among different banking institutions (both local and international). The Company evaluates the credit standing of each counterparty and the levels of investment, based on (i) their credit rating, (ii) the equity size of the counterparty, and (iii) investment limits according to the Company’s level of liquidity. According to these three parameters, the Company chooses the most restrictive parameter of the previous three and based on this, establishes limits for operations with each counterparty. All other financial assets with contractual cash flows other than trade receivables are considered by the Company to have minimal credit risk, as they relate principally to the instruments issued by counterparties with high credit quality. The maximum credit loss associated with these instruments is their carrying value.

The Company has no guarantees to mitigate this exposure.

(ii)
Operational activities

The Company has four large sales “clusters”: travel agencies, cargo agents, airlines and credit-card administrators. The first three are governed by IATA (International Air Transport Association), international organization comprising most of the airlines that represent over 90% of scheduled commercial traffic and one of its main objectives is to regulate the financial transactions between airlines and travel agents and cargo. When an agency or airline does not pay their debt, they are excluded from operating with IATA’s member airlines. In the case of credit-card administrators, they are fully guaranteed by the issuing institutions.

The exposure consists of the term granted, and this fluctuates between 1 and 45 days.

One of the tools the Company uses for reducing credit risk is to participate in global entities related to the industry, such as IATA, Business Sales Processing (BSP), Cargo Account Settlement Systems (“CASS”), IATA Clearing House (“ICH”) and banks (credit cards). These institutions fulfill the role of collectors and distributors between airlines and travel and cargo agencies. In the case of the Clearing House, it acts as an offsetting entity between airlines for the services provided between them. A reduction in term and implementation of guarantees has been achieved through these entities.

Credit quality of financial assets

The credit evaluation system used by the Company for trade receivables is that provided by IATA. Internal systems are also used for particular evaluations or specific markets based on trade reports available on the local market. The internal classification system is complementary to the external one, i.e. for agencies or airlines not members of IATA, the internal demands are greater. The bad-debt rate in the principal countries where the Company has a presence is insignificant.

(c) 
Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk represents the risk that the Company has no funds to meet its obligations.

Because of the cyclical nature of the business, the operation, and its investment and financing needs related to the acquisition of new aircraft and renewal of its fleet, plus the financing needs related to market-risk hedges, the Company requires liquid funds to meet its payment obligations.

The Company therefore manages its cash and cash equivalents and its financial assets, matching the term of investments with those of its obligations. Its policy is that the average term of its investments may not exceed the average term of its obligations. This cash and cash equivalents position is invested in highly-liquid short-term instruments through first-class financial entities.

The Company has future obligations related to financial leases, operating leases, maturities of other bank borrowings, derivative contracts and aircraft purchase contracts.

The Company has fuel and interest rate hedging, strategies involving derivatives contracts with different financial institutions. The Company has margin facilities with each financial institution in order to regulate the mutual exposure produced by changes in the market valuation of the derivatives. During 2008, with the fall in the fuel price, the Company was obliged to provide cash guarantees for this concept.

At the end of 2009, the Company had provided US$ 40.4 million in derivative margin guarantees, for cash and stand-by letters of credit. At the end of December 31, 2010, have provided US$ 38.1 millions in security for cash due at maturity and acquisition of fuel contracts and rates, rising fuel prices and falling interest rates .

Capital risk management

The Company’s objectives,  with respect to the management of capital, are (i) to safeguard it in order to continue as an on-going business, (ii) to seek a return for its shareholders, and (iii) to maintain an optimum capital structure and reduce its cost.

In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company could adjust the amount of the dividends payable to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

The Company monitors the capital according to the leverage ratio, in line with sector practice. This ratio is calculated as net adjusted debt to capital. Net adjusted debt is total financial debt plus 8 times the operating lease payments of the last 12 months, less total cash (measured as the sum of cash and cash equivalents plus marketable securities). Capital is the amount of net equity without the impact of the market value of derivatives, plus net adjusted debt.

Currently the company's strategy, which has not changed since 2007, and has consisted of maintaining a leverage ratio of between 70% and 80% and an international credit rating of higher than BBB- (the minimum required for being considered investment grade). The leverage ratios as of December 31, 2010, and December 31, 2009, were as follows:

Estimates of fair value

At December 31, 2010, the Company maintained financial instruments that should be recorded at fair value. These include:

Investments in short-term Mutual Funds (cash equivalent),
Interest rate derivative contracts,
Fuel derivative contracts,
Currency derivative contracts, and
Investment funds.

The Company has classified the fair value measurement using a hierarchy that reflects the level of information used in the assessment. This hierarchy consists of 3 levels (I) fair value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, (II) fair value based on inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (III) fair value based on inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets, such as investments acquired for trading, is based on quoted market prices at the close of the period used the current price buyer. The fair value of financial assets not traded in active markets (derivative contracts) is determined using valuation techniques that maximize use of available market information. Valuation techniques generally used by the Company are quoted market prices of similar instruments and / or estimating the present value of future cash flows using forward price curves of period-end market.

The following table shows the classification of financial instruments at fair value at December 31, 2010 depending on the level of information used in the assessment:

The book values of accounts receivable and payable are assumed to approximate their fair values, due to their short-term nature. In the case of cash on hand, bank balances, deposits and others accounts payables, non-currents, fair value approximates their carrying values.

The fair value of other financial liabilities is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate for similar financial instruments. In the case of other financial assets, valuation was performed according to market prices at year end.

NOTE 4 - ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS

The Company has used estimates to value and book some of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and commitments; these relate principally to:

1. 
The evaluation of possible impairment losses for certain assets.

2. 
The useful lives and residual values of fixed and intangible assets.

3. 
The criteria employed in the valuation of certain assets.

4. 
Air tickets sold that are not actually used.

5. 
The calculation of deferred income at the period-end, corresponding to the valuation of kilometers credited to holders of the Lan Pass loyalty card which have not yet been used.
 
6. 
The need provisions and where required the determination of their values.

7. 
The recoverability of deferred tax assets.

These estimates are made on the basis of the best information available on the matters analyzed.

In any case, it is possible that events will require them to be modified in the future, in which case the effects would be accounted for prospectively.

The movement in the allowance for impairment loss of trade accounts and other accounts receivables from January 01, 2009 and December 31, 2010 is as follows:

    5,039  
Increase in allowance
    (3,299 )
Balance as of December 31, 2010
    (22,077 )
 
Once extra-judicial and judicial collection efforts are exhausted, the assets are written off against the allowance. The Company only uses the allowance method rather than direct write-off, to ensure control.
 
Historic and current re-negotiations are not relevant and the policy is to analyze case by case in order to classify them according to the existence of risk determining whether it is appropriate to re-classify accounts as in pre-judicial recovery. If such re-classification is justified, an allowance is made for the account, whether overdue or falling due.
 
The maximum credit-risk exposure at the date of presentation of the information is the fair value of each one of the categories of accounts receivable indicated above:

NOTE 17 – GOODWILL

The goodwill represents the excess of cost of acquisition over the fair value of the participation of the Company in the identifiable net assets of the subsidiary at the acquisition date. Goodwill at December 31, 2010 amounted to ThUS$ 157,994 (ThUS$ 63,793 at December 31, 2009)
 
The Company performed an impairment test based on the value in use and no impairment was identified.
 
The value in use of those cash generating units to which goodwill has been assigned has been determined assuming that yields, occupation factors and fleet capacity are maintained at current obtainable levels. The company projects cash flows for number periods which is consistent with its internal budgeting process and thereafter calculates a terminal value. Growth rates applied in determining these terminal values are consistent with long range economic forecasts for the relevant markets in which these cash generating units operate. The determined cash flows are discounted at a rate which takes into account the time value of money and risks related to those cash generating units which have not been taken into account in estimation of the units’ future cash flows.
 
The movement of goodwill from January 01, 2009 to December 31, 2010, is as follows:
 
Opening balance as of January 01, 2009
    62,927

Covers investments denominated in Chilean pesos to changes in the US Dollar - Chilean Peso exchange rate, with the aim of ensuring investment in dollars.
 
During the periods presented, the Company only maintains cash flow hedges. In the case of fuel hedges, future fuel purchases will occur and impact results from 1 to 12 months from the consolidated statement of financial position date, whereas in the case of interest rate hedging, they will occur and will impact results over the life of the related loans, which are valid for 12 years. Regarding coverage rate and currency, the impact on outcomes will occur continuously throughout the life of the contract (3 years), while cash flows will occur quarterly. Finally, the results will impact investment hedges steadily over the life of the investment (up to 3 months), while the cash flows occur at the maturity of the investment.

During the periods presented, all hedged highly probable forecast transactions have occurred.

During the periods presented, there has been no hedge ineffectiveness recognized in the consolidated statement of income.

Since none of the coverage resulted in the recognition of a nonfinancial asset, no portion of the result of the derivatives recognized in equity was transferred to the initial value of such assets.

European Commission Provision:
 
(a) This provision was established because of the investigation begun by the Directorate General for Competition of the European Commission against more than 25 cargo airlines, including Lan Cargo S.A., as part of a global investigation begun in 2006 regarding possible unfair competition on the air cargo market.  This was a joint investigation by the European and U.S.A. authorities.  The start of the investigation was disclosed through a material event notice dated December 27, 2007.  The U.S.A. portion of the global investigation concluded with respect to Lan Cargo S.A. and its subsidiary, Aerolíneas Brasileiras S.A. (“ABSA”) by the signature of a Plea Agreement with the U.S.A.  Department of Justice, as disclosed in a material event notice on January 21, 2009.
 
(b) A significant matter report dated November 9, 2010, reported that the General Direction of Competition had issued its decision  on this case (the "decision"), under which it imposed fines totaling € 799,445,000 (seven hundred and ninety nine million four hundred and forty-five thousand  Euro) for infringement of European Union regulations on free competition against eleven (11) airlines, among which are Lan Airlines S.A. and Lan Cargo S.A., Air Canada, Air France, KLM, British Airways, Cargolux, Cathay Pacific, Japan Airlines, Qanta Airways, SAS and Singapore Airlines.
 
(c) Jointly, Lan Airlines S.A. and Lan Cargo S.A., have been fined in the amount of € 8,220,000 (approximately equivalent to ThUS$ 10,916) for such infractions, which was provisioned in the financial statements of LAN. This is a minor fine in comparison to the original decision, as there was a significant reduction in fine because Lan cooperated during the investigation.
 
(d) On January 25, 2011, Lan Airlines S.A. and Lan Cargo S.A. appealed the decision before the Court of Justice of the European Union. According to the above, the Company decided to make a provision for the amount of ThUS$ 10,916.

(d.1)           Currency translation reserve
 
These originate from exchange differences arising on the translation of any investment in foreign entities (or Chilean with a functional currency different to that of the parent), and from loans and other instruments in foreign currency designated as hedges for such investments. When the investment (all or part) is sold or disposed, and loss of control occurs, these reserves are shown in the consolidated statement of income as part of the loss or gain on the sale or disposal. If the sale does not involve loss of control, these reserves are transferred to non-controlling interests.
 
(d.2)           Cash flow hedging reserve
 
These originate from the at fair value valuation the end of each period of the outstanding derivative contracts that have been defined as cash flow hedges. When these contracts expire, these reserves should be adjusted and the corresponding results recognized.

Subject:
Special Matters Letter Applicable to the 2011 Accelerated Aircraft and the Substitute 767 Freighter Aircraft
 
Reference:
Purchase Agreement No. 2126 (the Purchase Agreement) between The Boeing Company (Boeing) and LAN Airlines S.A. (Customer) relating to Model 767-316F, Model 767-38EF and Model 767-316ER aircraft (hereinafter referred to as "Aircraft")
 
This letter agreement (Letter Agreement) amends and supplements the Purchase Agreement.  All terms used but not defined in this Letter Agreement have the same meaning as in the Purchase Agreement.
 
 
1.
 Definitions.
 
1.1      “STE” when used specifically in relation to any credit memorandum contained in this letter agreement shall mean that the relevant credit memorandum shall be escalated to the month of delivery in the same manner as the Airframe Price in accordance with the escalation formula reflected in Supplemental Exhibit AE1 2008$ to the Purchase Agreement entitled “Escalation adjustment - airframe and optional features”.
 
1.2      “Limitations on Use” when used in relation to any credit memorandum contained in this letter agreement shall mean that the applicable credit memorandum may be used for the purchase of Boeing goods and services or applied to the final delivery payment for the Aircraft for which the credit was issued, but that the relevant credit memorandum shall be prohibited from use for satisfaction of any Advance Payment obligation.
 
1.3      “2011 Accelerated Aircraft” shall mean either or both, as the case may be, of the two new Boeing Model 767-316ER Aircraft originally scheduled for delivery during the months of February and March of 2012, which contingent upon satisfaction of the terms of this letter agreement, are now scheduled for delivery in October and November of 2011, respectively.
 
1.4      “2012 Deferral Aircraft” shall mean the two (2) 767-300ER Aircraft scheduled for delivery in October and November 2012 that were substituted to 767-316F Aircraft.
 
1.5      [***].
 
1.6      “Incremental Aircraft” shall mean either or both, as the case may be, of the two new Boeing Model 767-316ER Aircraft scheduled for delivery during the months of September 2011 and September of 2012 to be purchased by Customer.  Supplemental Agreement 28 converts the September 2012 Incremental Aircraft into a Substitute 767 Freighter Aircraft.
 
1.7      [***].
 
1.8       “Table 11” shall mean the table entitled “Aircraft Information Table 11 to the Purchase Agreement”.
 
1.9      “Table 12” shall mean the table entitled “Aircraft Information Table 12 for the Substitute 767 Aircraft to the Purchase Agreement”.
 
 

 

 
 

 
 
1.10    “Substitute 767 Freighter Aircraft” shall mean the three (3) Boeing Model 767-316F Aircraft bearing serial numbers 40799, 40592, and 40593 now scheduled for delivery in 2nd Quarter 2013, 4th Quarter 2013, and 1st Quarter 2014, respectively.  Prior to substitution, these Aircraft were the two (2) 2012 Deferral Aircraft and one (1) Incremental Aircraft.
 
 
2.
Export License.
 
Customer understands and confirms that it is Customer’s responsibility to obtain any required Export License from the relevant U.S. authority.  Without accepting any liability for any failure to do so, Boeing will use reasonable endeavors to alert Customer to any regulatory changes of which Boeing becomes aware and which require Customer to obtain such Export License.
 
 
3.
Warranty Modification.
 
Notwithstanding paragraph 3.2 of Part 2 of Exhibit C to the AGTA, Boeing agrees that the warranty period for a Corrected Boeing Product resulting from a defect in material or workmanship is 6 months or the remainder of the initial warranty period, whichever is longer.
 
 
4.
Credit Memoranda for the 2011 Accelerated Aircraft and Substitute 767 Freighter Aircraft.
 
Subject to Customer’s adherence to the Limitations on Use, Boeing will provide the Customer with a credit memorandum concurrently with the delivery of each Aircraft, in description and amount which is identified in the credit memoranda table 4.1 for each of the 2011 Accelerated Aircraft and in credit memoranda table 4.2 for each of the Substitute 767 Freighter Aircraft:

6.
Special Considerations for the Substitute Aircraft.
 
6.1            If Customer elects to change the configuration of any 2011 Accelerated Aircraft from a 767-316ER Passenger Aircraft to a 767-316F Freighter Aircraft in accordance with the terms of Letter Agreement 6-1162-ILK-0383R1 entitled “Aircraft Model Substitution Relating to the 2011 Accelerated Aircraft (such Customer election creating a Substitute Aircraft), then the following provisions shall apply:
 
6.2            Aircraft Purchase Price.  The Airframe Base Price, Optional Features Prices, Engine Price and Aircraft Basic Price of a Substitute Aircraft shall be as set forth in Exhibit A to this Letter Agreement for the applicable Substitute Aircraft.

 
 

 
 
6.3            Economic Considerations. The credit memoranda applicable to any Substitute Aircraft will be revised as set forth in Exhibit B to this Letter Agreement.
 
6.4            Optional Features.  The Aircraft Basic Price for any Substitute Aircraft incorporates the selected Optional Features Prices set forth in Exhibit C to this Letter Agreement.
 
6.5            Advance Payments.  Customer may apply the terms of the following to its payment obligations arising from Customer’s purchase of any Substitute Aircraft:
 
 
6.5.1
Article 5 of this Letter Agreement; and
 
 
6.5.2
[***].
 
 
7.
Intentionally Deleted.
 
 
8.
Assignment.
 
Any assignment by Customer of any benefits, entitlements, or services described in this Letter Agreement requires Boeing's prior written consent.  Further, Customer will not reveal to any third party the amount of the credit memoranda provided to Customer by Boeing without Boeing’s prior written consent and subject to such circumstances as Boeing may reasonably require.
 
Boeing will not unreasonably withhold consent to Customer’s request to assign, as security, rights in the Purchase Agreement if done for purposes of obtaining financing or for such other purpose consistent with fulfilling its obligations under the Purchase Agreement.  Boeing’s consent will be conditioned on all parties accepting Boeing’s customary conditions for consenting to an assignment, including, but not limited to, the following: assignor and assignee indemnification of Boeing for any actions taken by an assignee under any assignment agreement; Boeing’s right to exercise the manufacturer’s option to assume Customer’s rights under the Purchase Agreement in the event of a default under an assignment agreement; and confidentiality.  A Party that is
 
i.            bound by a customary confidentiality agreement;
 
ii.           neither an airplane manufacturer nor an airline;  and
 
 
iii.
responding to a Customer request for proposals to provide financing of Aircraft pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, including pre-delivery payment financing
 
shall be deemed a “Financing Party”.
 
Without Boeing’s consent, Customer may represent to any Financing Party that Boeing will provide to that Financing Party, concurrently with the delivery of each of the Aircraft to that Financing Party, a financier credit memorandum equal to
 
(a)  [***]
 
(b)  [***]
 
escalated to the month of delivery in the same manner as the Airframe Price as described in Supplemental Exhibit AE-1 and in conformance with terms and conditions of this Letter Agreement.  Insofar as such Financing Party is concerned, this Financier Credit Memorandum shall be in lieu of any other provision in the Letter Agreement. When the Customer identifies a Financing Party and the preliminary terms of an assignment under which pre-delivery payment financing or aircraft purchase financing could be provided, at Customer’s request, Boeing agrees to enter into discussions with the Customer to consider whether an additional credit memorandum can be assigned, with the goal of helping Customer obtain third-party financing.

 
 

 
 
Boeing will consent to any reasonable request by Customer to assign the Purchase Agreement to an affiliate provided that Boeing is provided with an adequate  guarantee of performance of all obligations under this Purchase Agreement and in a form reasonably satisfactory to Boeing.
 
Customer understands that Boeing is not required under any circumstances to consent to an assignment that would constitute a novation.
 
The foregoing provisions are intended to supplement, and not to supersede, the assignment provisions of the AGTA, which address delivery date and post-delivery assignments, merger-type assignments, and other matters.
 
 
9.
16G Seat Requirement Credit Memorandum.
 
In the event that Customer notifies Boeing of a selection of record option 2525C826G85 (for Boeing certification of the business class, economy class and attendant seats to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Regulation Information Number 2120-AC84 entitled “Improved Seats in Air Carrier Transport Category Airplanes” (the 16G Requirement) in lieu of existing 9G capability) (such record option, including successor record options which supersede the identified record option, are herein referred to as the 16G Record Option), [***]:

[***]
[***]
[***]
[***]
[***]
[***]
 
Boeing acknowledges that Customer has provided a waiver for the 2011 Aircraft and does not have to comply with the 16G requirement for said Aircraft.
 
 
10.
Deferral of Payment Due at Signing of Supplemental Agreement 24 (SA-24). (This section is no longer applicable.)
 
 
11.
[***].
 
 
12.
Confidentiality.
 
Boeing and Customer understand that the commercial and financial information contained in this Letter Agreement is considered by the parties as confidential (Confidential Information) and both agree not to disclose such Confidential Information except as provided herein.  In addition to the parties’ respective officers, directors and employees who need to know the Confidential Information and who understand the obligation to keep it confidential, the parties may disclose Confidential Information (1) to the extent required by law and (2) to its agents, auditors and advisors who need to know the Confidential Information for purposes of enabling each party to understand, perform its obligations under, or receive the benefits of, this Letter Agreement and who have agreed not to use or disclose the Confidential Information for any other purpose without the other party’s prior written consent.  In the event that a party concludes that disclosure of Confidential Information contained in this Letter Agreement is required by applicable law, the party will so advise the other party promptly in writing and endeavor to protect the confidentiality of such Confidential Information to the widest extent possible.  In the event of a legal dispute with Boeing, nothing herein will preclude Customer from sharing with its legal counsel information necessary for purposes of enabling counsel to advise or represent Customer provided that so long as Customer causes its legal counsel to maintain the confidentiality of information that is the subject of this Article.  Except as provided in the assignment provisions of Article 7 of Letter Agreement 6-1162-KSW-6423, Special Matters Applicable to the Incremental Aircraft; Article 21 of Letter Agreement 6-1162-LAJ-0895, as amended, entitled “Business Considerations”; Article 8 herein and Article 9 of Letter Agreement 6-1162-ILK-0412 entitled “Special Matters Relating to Three Aircraft Originally Scheduled to Deliver in 2009”, Customer will not disclose this Letter Agreement for purposes of financing payments without the prior written consent of Boeing, which consent will be provided once the financier enters into a Non Disclosure Agreement with Boeing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Boeing, which will include agreeing not to disclose or use Confidential Information except for the purpose set forth herein. This provision shall not apply to any Confidential Information that is in the public domain except that a party will be liable to the other for breach of its obligations under this provision if the Confidential Information entered the public domain as a consequence of a wrongful act or omission on its part.

 
 

 

The Purchase Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent herein provided and as amended shall continue in full force and effect.
 
Very truly yours,

AIRCRAFT CONFIGURATION
 
4.1
The guarantees contained in this Attachment are based on the Aircraft configuration as defined in Detail Specification D019T002LAN63F-2 (hereinafter referred to as the Detail Specification).  Appropriate adjustment shall be made for changes in such Detail Specification approved by the Customer and Boeing or otherwise allowed by the Purchase Agreement which cause changes to the flight performance and/or weight and balance of the Aircraft.  Such adjustment shall be accounted for by Boeing in its evidence of compliance with the guarantees.
 
4.2
The Manufacturer's Empty Weight guarantee of Section 3 will be adjusted by Boeing for the following in its evidence of compliance with the guarantees:
 
(1)        Changes to the Detail Specification or any other changes mutually agreed upon between the Customer and Boeing or otherwise allowed by the Purchase Agreement.
 
(2)        The difference between the component weight allowances given in Appendix IV of the Detail Specification and the actual weights.
 
5
GUARANTEE CONDITIONS
 
5.1
All guaranteed performance data are based on the International Standard Atmosphere (ISA) and specified variations therefrom; altitudes are pressure altitudes.
 
5.2
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations referred to in this Attachment are, unless otherwise specified, the 767-300 Certification Basis regulations specified in the Type Certificate Data Sheet A1NM, Revision 23, dated May 10, 2004.
 
5.3
In the event a change is made to any law, governmental regulation or requirement, or in the interpretation of any such law, governmental regulation or requirement that affects the certification basis for the Aircraft as described in Paragraph 5.2, and as a result thereof, a change is made to the configuration and/or the performance of the Aircraft in order to obtain certification, the guarantees set forth in this Attachment shall be appropriately modified to reflect any such change.
 
 
 

 

5.4
The takeoff and landing guarantees are based on hard surface, level and dry runways with no wind or obstacles, no clearway or stopway, 225 mph tires, with Category D brakes and anti-skid operative, and with the Aircraft center of gravity at the most forward limit unless otherwise specified.  The takeoff performance is based on no engine bleed for air conditioning or thermal anti-icing and the Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) turned off unless otherwise specified.  The improved climb performance procedure will be used for takeoff as required.  The landing performance is based on the use of automatic spoilers.
 
5.5
The cruise fuel mileage guarantee includes allowances for normal power extraction and engine bleed for normal operation of the air conditioning system.  Normal electrical power extraction shall be defined as not less than a 140 kilowatts total electrical load.  Normal operation of the air conditioning system shall be defined as pack switches in the "Auto" position, the temperature control switches in the "Auto" position that results in a nominal cabin temperature of 75°F, and all air conditioning systems operating normally.  This operation allows a maximum cabin pressure differential of 8.6 pounds per square inch at higher altitudes, with a nominal Aircraft cabin ventilation rate of 1,600 cubic feet per minute including passenger cabin recirculation (nominal recirculation is 0 percent).  The APU is turned off unless otherwise specified.
 
5.6
The cruise fuel mileage guarantee is based on an Aircraft center of gravity location of 17 percent of the mean aerodynamic chord.
 
5.7
Performance, where applicable, is based on a fuel Lower Heating Value (LHV) of 18,580 BTU per pound.
 
6
GUARANTEE COMPLIANCE
 
6.1
Compliance with the guarantees of Sections 2 and 3 shall be based on the conditions specified in those sections, the Aircraft configuration of Section 4 and the guarantee conditions of Section 5.
 
6.2
Compliance with the takeoff and landing guarantees shall be based on the FAA approved Airplane Flight Manual for the Model 767-300F.
 
6.3
Compliance with the cruise fuel mileage guarantee shall be established by calculations based on flight test data obtained from an aircraft in a configuration similar to that defined by the Detail Specification.
 
6.4
Compliance with the Manufacturer's Empty Weight guarantee shall be based on information in the "Weight and Balance Control and Loading Manual - Aircraft Report."
 
6.5
The data derived from tests shall be adjusted as required by conventional methods of correction, interpolation or extrapolation in accordance with established engineering practices to show compliance with these guarantees.
 
6.6
Compliance shall be based on the performance of the airframe and engines in combination, and shall not be contingent on the engine meeting its manufacturer's performance specification.
 
7
EXCLUSIVE GUARANTEES
 
The only performance guarantees applicable to the Aircraft are those set forth in this Attachment.

ENGINE ESCALATION,
ENGINE WARRANTY AND PATENT INDEMNITY

between

THE BOEING COMPANY

and

LAN AIRLINES S.A

Supplemental Exhibit EE1 to Purchase Agreement Number 2126

 
 

 

ENGINE ESCALATION,
ENGINE WARRANTY AND PATENT INDEMNITY

relating to

BOEING MODEL 767-316ER and BOEING MODEL 767-316F AIRCRAFT

1.            [***] ENGINE ESCALATION.

(a)           The Aircraft Basic Price of each Aircraft set forth in Table 13 of the Purchase Agreement includes an aggregate price for engines and all accessories, equipment and parts provided by General Electric Aircraft Engines (GE).  The adjustment in Engine Price applicable to each Aircraft (Engine Price Adjustment) will be determined at the time of Aircraft delivery in accordance with the following formula:

 Pe = [(Pb + F)  x ( CPI / CPIb )] - Pb

where CPIb is the engine escalation base year index of 133.190 as set forth in Table 13 of the Purchase Agreement .

(b)   The following definitions will apply herein:

 Pe =           Engine Price Adjustment

 
Pb  =
 Engine Price (per Aircraft), as set forth in Table 13 of the Purchase Agreement.

 
F=
 0.005 x (N/12) x Pb where N is the number of calendar months which have elapsed from the Engine Price base year and month up to and including the month of delivery, both as shown in Table 13 of the Purchase Agreement.

 CPI =        L + ICI  (rounded to the nearest hundredth)

 
L  =
A value determined using the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics "Employment Cost Index Wages and Salaries for Aircraft Manufacturing (BLS series ID ciu2023211000000i)”, base 100 = December 2005, calculated as a 3-month arithmetic average of the released values (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the 12th, 13th, and 14th months prior to the month of scheduled Aircraft delivery, then multiplied by sixty-five percent (65%) (rounded to the nearest thousandth).

 
ICI  =
A value determined using the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics "Producer Prices and Price Index - Industrial Commodities Index (BLS series ID wpu03thru15)", base 100 = Calendar year 1982, calculated as a 3 month arithmetic average of the released monthly values (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest hundredth) using the values for the 12th, 13th and 14th months prior to the month of scheduled Aircraft delivery, then multiplied by thirty-five percent (35%) (rounded to the nearest thousandth).

The Engine Price Adjustment will not be made if it would result in a decrease in the Engine Price.

(c)           The values of the Employment Cost Index Wages & Salaries and Producer Prices and Price Index - Industrial Commodities Index used will be those published as of a date thirty (30) days prior to the first day of the scheduled Aircraft delivery month to Customer.  As the Employment Cost Index values are only released on a quarterly basis, the value released for the first quarter will be used for the months of January, February and March; the value released for the second quarter will be used for the months of April, May and June; the value released for the third quarter will be used for the months of July, August and September; the value released for the fourth quarter will be used for the months of October, November and December.  Such values will be considered final and no Engine Price Adjustment will be made after Aircraft delivery for any subsequent changes in published index values.  If no values have been released for an applicable month, the provisions set forth in paragraph 1(e), below, will apply.  If prior to delivery of an Aircraft, the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics changes the base year for determination of the L or ICI values as defined above, such rebase values will be incorporated in the Engine Price Adjustment calculation.

 
 

 

(d)           If at the time of delivery of an Aircraft, Boeing is unable to determine the Engine Price Adjustment because the applicable values to be used to determine L and ICI have not been released by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics; then, in the event the Engine Price escalation provisions are made non enforceable or otherwise rendered null and void by any agency of the United States Government, GE agrees to meet jointly with Boeing and Customer (to the extent such parties may lawfully do so) to adjust equitably  the Aircraft Basic Price of any affected Aircraft to reflect an allowance for increase or decrease in labor compensation and material costs occurring since February of the base price year which is consistent with the application provisions of this Supplemental Exhibit EE1.

(e)           If prior to delivery of an Aircraft, the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics substantially revises the methodology used for the determination of the values to be used to determine the L and ICI values (in contrast to benchmark adjustments or other corrections of previously released values), Customer, Boeing and GE will, prior to delivery of such Aircraft, select a substitute for such values from data published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics or other similar data reported by non-governmental United States organizations, such substitute to lead in application to the same adjustment result insofar as possible, as would have been achieved by continuing the use of the original values as they may have fluctuated during the applicable time period.  Appropriate revisions of the formula will be made as required to reflect any substitute values.  However, if within twenty-four (24) months from delivery of the Aircraft, the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics should resume releasing values for the months needed to determine the Engine Price Adjustment, such values will be used to determine the increase or decrease in the Engine Price Adjustment determined at the time of delivery of such Aircraft.

NOTE:
The factor (CPI divided by the base year index) by which the Engine Price is to be multiplied will be expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest thousandth.  Any rounding of a number, as required under this Supplemental Exhibit EE1 with respect to escalation of the Engine Price, will be accomplished as follows:  if the first digit of the portion to be dropped from the number to be rounded is five or greater, the preceding digit will be raised to the next higher number.

 
 

 

2.           ENGINE WARRANTY AND PRODUCT SUPPORT PLAN.

Boeing has obtained from GE the right to extend to Customer the provisions of GE's warranty and product support plan (Warranty and Product Support Plan); subject, however, to Customer's acceptance of the conditions set forth herein and in such Warranty and Product Support Plan.  Accordingly, Boeing hereby extends to Customer and Customer hereby accepts the provisions of GE's Warranty and Product Support Plan, and such Warranty and Product Support Plan shall apply to all CF6 turbofan engines including all Modules and Parts thereof, as these terms are defined in the Warranty and Product Support Plan, (Engines) installed in the Aircraft at the time of delivery or purchased from Boeing by Customer for support of the Aircraft except that, if Customer and GE have executed a general terms agreement (Engine GTA), then the terms of the Engine GTA shall be substituted for and supersede the below-stated provisions and such provisions shall be of no force or effect and neither Boeing nor GE shall have any obligation arising therefrom.  In consideration for Boeing's extension of the GE Warranty and Product Support Plan to Customer, Customer hereby releases and discharges Boeing from any and all claims, obligations and liabilities whatsoever arising out of the purchase or use of the Engines and Customer hereby waives, releases and renounces all its rights in all such claims, obligations and liabilities.

The Warranty and Product Support Plan is set forth in Exhibit C to the applicable purchase contract between GE and Boeing.  Copies of the Warranty and Product Support Plan shall be provided to Customer by Boeing upon request.

 
 

 

ESCALATION ADJUSTMENT

AIRFRAME AND OPTIONAL FEATURES

between

THE BOEING COMPANY

and

LAN AIRLINES S.A

Supplemental Exhibit AE1 [***] to Purchase Agreement Number 2126
 
 
 

 

1.           [***].

Airframe and Optional Features price adjustments (Airframe Price Adjustment) are used to allow prices to be stated in current year dollars at the signing of this Purchase Agreement and to adjust the amount to be paid by Customer at delivery for the effects of economic fluctuation.  The Airframe Price Adjustment will be determined at the time of Aircraft delivery in accordance with the following formula:

Pa = (P) (L + M) - P

Where:

Pa =   Airframe Price Adjustment.
 
  P =
Airframe Price plus the price of the Optional Features (as set forth in Table 13 of this Purchase Agreement).

L =           .65 x (ECI
            ECIb)

Where:

ECIb is the base year airframe escalation index (computed as the three month arithmetic average value of 106.8 for June, July and August [***] as set forth in Table 13 of this Purchase Agreement);

ECI is a value determined using the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Employment Cost Index for NAICS Manufacturing – Total Compensation (BLS Series ID CIU2013000000000I), calculated by establishing a three-month arithmetic average value (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the 11th, 12th, and 13th months prior to the month of scheduled delivery of the applicable Aircraft.  As the Employment Cost Index values are only released on a quarterly basis, the value released for the first quarter will be used for the months of January, February, and March; the value released for the second quarter will be used for the months of April, May, and June; the value released for the third quarter will be used for the months of July, August, and September; the value released for the fourth quarter will be used for the months of October, November, and December.

M =           .35 x (CPI 
             CPIb )

Where:

CPIb is the base year airframe escalation index (computed as the three month arithmetic average value of 215.6 for June, July and August of 2009 as set forth in Table 13 of this Purchase Agreement); and

CPI is a value determined using the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index – All Urban Consumers (BLS Series ID CUUR0000SA0), calculated as a three (3) month arithmetic average of the released monthly values (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the 11th, 12th, and 13th months prior to the month of scheduled delivery of the applicable Aircraft.

 
 

 

As an example, for an Aircraft scheduled to be delivered in the month of July, the months of June, July, and August of the preceding year will be utilized in determining the value of ECI and CPI.

Note:
i.
In determining the values of L and M, all calculations and resulting values will be expressed as a decimal rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth.

 
ii.
.65 is the numeric ratio attributed to labor in the Airframe Price Adjustment formula.

 
iii.
.35 is the numeric ratio attributed to materials in the Airframe Price Adjustment formula.

 
iv.
The denominators (base year indices) are the actual average values reported by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.  The actual average values are calculated as a 3-month arithmetic average of the released monthly values (expressed as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth) using the values for the [***].  The applicable base year and corresponding denominator is provided by Boeing in Table 13 of this Purchase Agreement.

 
v.
The final value of Pa will be rounded to the nearest dollar.

 
vi.
The Airframe Price Adjustment will not be made if it will result in a decrease in the Aircraft Basic Price.

2.           Values to be Utilized in the Event of Unavailability.

2.1           If the Bureau of Labor Statistics substantially revises the methodology used for the determination of the values to be used to determine the ECI and CPI values (in contrast to benchmark adjustments or other corrections of previously released values), or for any reason has not released values needed to determine the applicable Airframe Price Adjustment, the parties will, prior to the delivery of any such Aircraft, select a substitute from other Bureau of Labor Statistics data or similar data reported by non-governmental organizations.  Such substitute will result in the same adjustment, insofar as possible, as would have been calculated utilizing the original values adjusted for fluctuation during the applicable time period.  However, if within 24 months after delivery of the Aircraft, the Bureau of Labor Statistics should resume releasing values for the months needed to determine the Airframe Price Adjustment, such values will be used to determine any increase or decrease in the Airframe Price Adjustment for the Aircraft from that determined at the time of delivery of the Aircraft.

2.2           Notwithstanding Article 2.1 above, if prior to the scheduled delivery month of an Aircraft the Bureau of Labor Statistics changes the base year for determination of the ECI and CPI values as defined above, such re-based values will be incorporated in the Airframe Price Adjustment calculation.

2.3           In the event escalation provisions are made non-enforceable or otherwise rendered void by any agency of the United States Government, the parties agree, to the extent they may lawfully do so, to equitably adjust the Aircraft Price of any affected Aircraft to reflect an allowance for increases or decreases consistent with the applicable provisions of paragraph 1 of this Supplemental Exhibit AE1 in labor compensation and material costs occurring since August of the year prior to the price base year shown in the Purchase Agreement.

2.4           If within twelve (12) months of Aircraft delivery, the published index values are revised due to an acknowledged error by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Airframe Price Adjustment will be re-calculated using the revised index values (this does not include those values noted as preliminary by the Bureau of Labor Statistics).  A credit memorandum or supplemental invoice will be issued for the Airframe Price Adjustment difference. Interest charges will not apply for the period of original invoice to issuance of credit memorandum or supplemental invoice.

 
 

 

 
Note:
i.
The values released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and available to Boeing 30 days prior to the first day of the scheduled delivery month of an Aircraft will be used to determine the ECI and CPI values for the applicable months (including those noted as preliminary by the Bureau of Labor Statistics) to calculate the Airframe Price Adjustment for the Aircraft invoice at the time of delivery.  The values will be considered final and no Airframe Price Adjustments will be made after Aircraft delivery for any subsequent changes in published Index values, subject always to Paragraph 2.4 above.

 
ii.
The maximum number of digits to the right of the decimal after rounding utilized in any part of the Airframe Price Adjustment equation will be 4, where rounding of the fourth digit will be increased to the next highest digit when the 5th digit is equal to 5 or greater.

AIRCRAFT CONFIGURATION
 
4.1
The guarantees contained in this Attachment are based on the Aircraft configuration as defined in the original release of Detail Specification TBD (hereinafter referred to as the Detail Specification).  Appropriate adjustment shall be made for changes in such Detail Specification approved by the Customer and Boeing or otherwise allowed by the Purchase Agreement which cause changes to the flight performance and/or weight and balance of the Aircraft.  Such adjustment shall be accounted for by Boeing in its evidence of compliance with the guarantees.
 
4.2
The Manufacturer's Empty Weight guarantee of Section 3 will be adjusted by Boeing for the following in its evidence of compliance with the guarantees:
 
(1)        Changes to the Detail Specification or any other changes mutually agreed upon between the Customer and Boeing or otherwise allowed by the Purchase Agreement.
 
(2)        The difference between the component weight allowances given in Appendix IV of the Detail Specification and the actual weights.
 
5
GUARANTEE CONDITIONS
 
5.1
All guaranteed performance data are based on the International Standard Atmosphere (ISA) and specified variations therefrom; altitudes are pressure altitudes.
 
5.2
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations referred to in this Attachment are, unless otherwise specified, the 777F Certification Basis regulations specified in the Type Certificate Data Sheet T00001SE, dated July 28, 2009.
 
5.3
In the event a change is made to any law, governmental regulation or requirement, or in the interpretation of any such law, governmental regulation or requirement that affects the certification basis for the Aircraft as described in Paragraph 5.2, and as a result thereof, a change is made to the configuration and/or the performance of the Aircraft in order to obtain certification, the guarantees set forth in this Attachment shall be appropriately modified to reflect any such change.
 
5.4
The takeoff and landing guarantees are based on hard surface, level and dry runways with no wind or obstacles, no clearway or stopway, 235 mph tires, with anti-skid operative, and with the Aircraft center of gravity at the most forward limit unless otherwise specified.  The takeoff performance is based on no engine bleed for air conditioning or thermal anti-icing and the Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) turned off unless otherwise specified.  Unbalanced field length calculations and the improved climb performance procedure will be used for takeoff as required.  The landing performance is based on the use of automatic spoilers.
 
 
 

 
 
5.5
The cruise range guarantee includes allowances for normal power extraction and engine bleed for normal operation of the air conditioning system.  Normal electrical power extraction shall be defined as not less than a 212 kilowatts total electrical load.  Normal operation of the air conditioning system shall be defined as pack switches in the "Auto" position, the temperature control switches in the "Auto" position that results in a nominal cabin temperature of 75°F, and all air conditioning systems operating normally.  This operation allows a maximum cabin pressure differential of 8.6 pounds per square inch at higher altitudes, with a nominal Aircraft cabin ventilation rate of 9,100 cubic feet per minute including passenger cabin recirculation (nominal recirculation is 50 percent).  The APU is turned off unless otherwise specified.
 
5.6
The cruise range guarantee is based on an Aircraft center of gravity location, as determined by Boeing, not to be aft of 30 percent of the mean aerodynamic chord.
 
5.7
Performance, where applicable, is based on a fuel Lower Heating Value (LHV) of 18,580 BTU per pound.
 
6
GUARANTEE COMPLIANCE
 
6.1
Compliance with the guarantees of Sections 2 and 3 shall be based on the conditions specified in those sections, the Aircraft configuration of Section 4 and the guarantee conditions of Section 5.
 
6.2
Compliance with the takeoff and landing guarantees shall be based on the FAA approved Airplane Flight Manual for the Model 777F.
 
6.3
Compliance with the cruise range guarantee shall be established by calculations based on flight test data obtained from an aircraft in a configuration similar to that defined by the Detail Specification.
 
6.4
Compliance with the Manufacturer's Empty Weight guarantee shall be based on information in the "Weight and Balance Control and Loading Manual - Aircraft Report."
 
6.5
The data derived from tests shall be adjusted as required by conventional methods of correction, interpolation or extrapolation in accordance with established engineering practices to show compliance with these guarantees.
 
6.6
Compliance shall be based on the performance of the airframe and engines in combination, and shall not be contingent on the engine meeting its manufacturer's performance specification.

Assignment.
 
Any assignment by Customer of any benefits, entitlements, or services described in this Letter Agreement requires Boeing's prior written consent.  Further, Customer will not reveal to any third party the amount of the credit memoranda provided to Customer by Boeing without Boeing’s prior written consent and subject to such circumstances as Boeing may reasonably require.
 
Boeing will not unreasonably withhold consent to Customer’s request to assign, as security, rights in the Purchase Agreement if done for purposes of obtaining financing or for such other purpose consistent with fulfilling its obligations under the Purchase Agreement.  Boeing’s consent will be conditioned on all parties accepting Boeing’s customary conditions for consenting to an assignment, including, but not limited to, the following: assignor and assignee indemnification of Boeing for any actions taken by an assignee under any assignment agreement; Boeing’s right to exercise the manufacturer’s option to assume Customer’s rights under the Purchase Agreement in the event of a default under an assignment agreement; and confidentiality.  A Party that is
 
i.       bound by a customary confidentiality agreement;

 
24

 
 
ii.       neither an airplane manufacturer nor an airline;  and
 
iii.       responding to a Customer request for proposals to provide financing of Aircraft pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, including pre-delivery payment financing
 
shall be deemed a “Financing Party”.
 
[***]. When the Customer identifies a Financing Party and the preliminary terms of an assignment under which pre-delivery payment financing (PDP) or aircraft purchase financing could be provided, at Customer’s request, [***].
 
Boeing will consent to any reasonable request by Customer to assign the Purchase Agreement to an affiliate provided that Boeing is provided with an adequate  guarantee of performance of all obligations under this Purchase Agreement and in a form reasonably satisfactory to Boeing.
 
Customer understands that Boeing is not required under any circumstances to consent to an assignment that would constitute a novation.
 
The foregoing provisions are intended to supplement, and not to supersede, the assignment provisions of the AGTA, which address delivery date and post-delivery assignments, merger-type assignments, and other matters.
 
11.
[***].
 
Boeing recognizes that Customer requires early notification of Development Changes, incorporated into the Detail Specification, and Manufacturer Changes applicable to the Aircraft so Customer can evaluate, in a timely manner, the effect of such changes on maintenance and operation of the Aircraft.  Boeing will provide to Customer notification of such Developmental Changes and Manufacturer Changes affecting Customer's airplanes through Boeing's standard notification process.

13.
Confidential Treatment.
 
Boeing and Customer understand that the commercial and financial information contained in this Letter Agreement is considered by the parties as confidential (Confidential Information) and both agree not to disclose such Confidential Information except as provided herein.  In addition to the parties’ respective officers, directors and employees who need to know the Confidential Information and who understand the obligation to keep it confidential, the parties may disclose Confidential Information (1) to the extent required by law and (2) to its agents, auditors and advisors who need to know the Confidential Information for purposes of enabling each party to understand, perform its obligations under, or receive the benefits of, this Agreement and who have agreed not to use or disclose the Confidential Information for any other purpose without the other party’s prior written consent.  In the event that a party concludes that disclosure of Confidential Information contained in this Letter Agreement is required by applicable law, the party will so advise the other party promptly in writing and endeavor to protect the confidentiality of such Confidential Information to the widest extent possible.  In the event of a legal dispute with Boeing, nothing herein will preclude Customer from sharing with its legal counsel information necessary for purposes of enabling counsel to advise or represent Customer provided that so long as Customer causes its legal counsel to maintain the confidentiality of information that is the subject of this Article.  Except as provided in the assignment provisions of Article 10 of this Special Matters Letter Agreement, Customer will not disclose this Letter Agreement for purposes of financing payments without the prior written consent of Boeing, which consent will be provided once the financier enters into a Non Disclosure Agreement with Boeing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Boeing, which will include agreeing not to disclose or use Confidential Information except for the purpose set forth herein. This provision shall not apply to any Confidential Information that is in the public domain except that a party will be liable to the other for breach of its obligations under this provision if the Confidential Information entered the public domain as a consequence of a wrongful act or omission on its part.

Customer has selected Rolls Royce Engines for its September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft.  Sections of the Purchase Agreement related to GENX engines no longer apply to the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft.
 
3.
Table of Contents.
 
The “Table of Contents” to the Purchase Agreement is revised to reflect the changes made by this SA-2.  The revised Table of Contents is attached hereto.
 
4.
Articles.
 
4.1.   [***]:
 
“[***].”
 
5.      Tables.
 
The Aircraft Information Tables are revised a) to delete the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft from Table 1-ROLLS 787-816 and b) to add Table 5 for the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft.  The revised Table 1-ROLLS 787-816 and Table 5 are attached hereto and identified with the SA-2 legend.
 
 
 

 
 
6.
Exhibits and Supplemental Exhibits.
 
6.1           Exhibit A1, “Aircraft Configuration” relating to 2011 787-816 Aircraft provides the configuration for the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft.  If Boeing defers the delivery of one or both of the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft so that the new delivery date is June 2012 or later, the deferred aircraft will have the same configuration as Customer’s Aircraft delivering in May 2012.  Boeing and Customer continue to analyze what, if any, of Customer’s May 2012 configuration could be incorporated into the Aircraft delivering in 2011 during production.
 
6.2.          Subject to paragraph 6.1, BFE seats are not available for the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft.  Supplemental Agreements “Buyer Equipment Variables” (BFE1) and “Buyer Equipment Variables for 2012-2013 Aircraft” (BFE2) do not apply to the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft.  If Boeing defers the delivery of one or both of the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft so that the new delivery date is June 2012 or later, “Buyer Equipment Variables for 2012-2013 Aircraft” (BFE2) will be revised to include such deferred September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft.
 
7.
Letter Agreements.
 
7.1.          For the Accelerated Aircraft and the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft the Initial Provisioning Meeting called out in paragraph 2.2 of Letter Agreement 3256-01 entitled “Spare Parts Initial Provisioning” was held in March 2010.
 
7.2.          The September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft configuration is finalized at the time SA-2 is signed.  Therefore, except for paragraphs 1.2.4 and 1.2.5, Letter Agreement 3256-02, “Boeing Model 787 Open Configuration Matters” does not apply to the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft.  Master changes may still be processed in accordance with Boeing standard processes.
 
7.3.          Letter Agreement 6-1162-ILK-0310R1 entitled “Special Matters” is revised to address the economic considerations for the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft.  The revised Letter Agreement 6-1162-ILK-0310R2 is attached hereto.
 
7.4.          Letter Agreement 6-1162-ILK-0312 entitled “Promotional Support Agreement” is revised and the revised Letter Agreement 6-1162-ILK-0312R1 attached hereto.
 
7.5.          [***].
 
7.6.          [***].
 
7.7.          [***].
 
7.8.          For the Accelerated Aircraft and the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft the Planning Conferences called out in Letter Agreement 6-1162-ILK-0323 entitled “Special Matters Customer Support Document”, paragraph 1 revising CS1 Part 1, Art. 2.1 and Part 3, item 2 were in March 2010.
 
7.9.          Letter Agreement 6-1162-ILK-0326 entitled “Special Matters Customer 787 Fleet” does not apply to the September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft.

7.13.        Letter Agreement 6-1162-KSW-6473 entitled “Delivery Flexibility for September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft” is added to the Purchase Agreement and attached hereto.
 
8.
[***].
 
8.1.          [***].
 
8.2.          The parties recognize that if Boeing exercises its right to slide either or both September 2011 Accelerated Aircraft the advance payments owed will change.  Therefore no advance payment is required at the signing of SA-2.  On August 1, 2010 Customer will either pay the advance payment amount called out in paragraph 8.1 if the delivery months remains September 2011 or a revised advance payment amount based on the new delivery positions.
 
 
 

 
 
9.
Confidential Treatment.
 
Boeing and Customer understand that the commercial and financial information contained in this Supplemental Agreement is considered by the parties as confidential (Confidential Information) and both agree not to disclose such Confidential Information except as provided herein.  In addition to the parties’ respective officers, directors and employees who need to know the Confidential Information and who understand the obligation to keep it confidential, the parties may disclose Confidential Information (1) to the extent required by law and (2) to its agents, auditors and advisors who need to know the Confidential Information for purposes of enabling each party to understand, perform its obligations under, or receive the benefits of, this Agreement and who have agreed not to use or disclose the Confidential Information for any other purpose without the other party’s prior written consent.  In the event that a party concludes that disclosure of Confidential Information contained in this Supplemental Agreement 2 is required by applicable law, the party will so advise the other party promptly in writing and endeavor to protect the confidentiality of such Confidential Information to the widest extent possible.  In the event of a legal dispute with Boeing, nothing herein will preclude Customer from sharing with its legal counsel information necessary for purposes of enabling counsel to advise or represent Customer provided that so long as Customer causes its legal counsel to maintain the confidentiality of information that is the subject of this Article.  Except as provided in the assignment provisions of Article 10 of the Special Matters Letter Agreement 6-1162-ILK-0310R2, Customer will not disclose this Supplemental Agreement 2 for purposes of financing payments without the prior written consent of Boeing, which consent will be provided once the financier enters into a Non Disclosure Agreement with Boeing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Boeing, which will include agreeing not to disclose or use Confidential Information except for the purpose set forth herein. This provision shall not apply to any Confidential Information that is in the public domain except that a party will be liable to the other for breach of its obligations under this provision if the Confidential Information entered the public domain as a consequence of a wrongful act or omission on its part.

6.
Economic Considerations for the Option Aircraft.
 
Subject to Customer’s adherence to the Limitations on Use, Boeing agrees that the Option Aircraft [***].
 
[***]:
 
 
(iii)
For 2017 delivery year option aircraft: Customer to provide Boeing with its notice of option exercise rights no later than July 1, 2014; and
 
(iv)
for 2018 delivery year option aircraft: Customer to provide Boeing with its notice of option exercise rights no later than July 1, 2015.
 
Notwithstanding Article 4.2 of the Option Aircraft Letter, [***].  A sample form of supplemental agreement (illustrative of the contractual documentation incident to implementation of the Customer’s exercise of its rights in respect of the purchase of Option Aircraft) that is acceptable to Boeing is attached as Appendix 1 to this Letter Agreement.  Appendix 1 reflects a Customer exercise of its rights in respect of two (2) Option Aircraft; however, the parties agree that Customer may exercise its rights in respect of a minimum of one (1) Option Aircraft so long as such Customer exercise occurs no later than the applicable Option Exercise Date.
 
7.
Economic Considerations for the Substitution Aircraft.
 
In the event of substitution of an Aircraft by the Customer pursuant to the Aircraft Model Substitution Letter Agreement to the Purchase Agreement, Boeing agrees to provide Customer with [***].  A sample form of supplemental agreement (illustrative of the contractual documentation incident to implementation of the Customer’s exercise of its substitution rights in respect of one (1) Boeing Model 787-916 Aircraft to replace the purchase of one (1) Boeing Model 787-816 Aircraft) that is acceptable to Boeing is attached as Appendix 2 to this Letter Agreement.
 
8.
Correction Time Objectives.
 
In the event that Boeing is able to make improvements to Correction Time Objectives as defined in Article 8.3.1 of Exhibit C to the AGTA, Product Assurance Document, then Boeing will revise the referenced Article to reflect the revision, e.g., to reflect subsequent schedule improvement to the extent realized.
 
9.

Aircraft Model
 
Fuel Provided
Boeing Model 787 Aircraft,
 including all minor models
  
 
3,000
 
10.
Assignment.
 
Any assignment by Customer of any benefits, entitlements, or services described in this Letter Agreement requires Boeing's prior written consent.  Further, Customer will not reveal to any third party the amount of the credit memoranda provided to Customer by Boeing without Boeing’s prior written consent and subject to such circumstances as Boeing may reasonably require.
 
 
 

 
 
Boeing will not unreasonably withhold consent to Customer’s request to assign, as security, rights in the Purchase Agreement if done for purposes of obtaining financing or for such other purpose consistent with fulfilling its obligations under the Purchase Agreement.  Boeing’s consent will be conditioned on all parties accepting Boeing’s customary conditions for consenting to an assignment, including, but not limited to, the following: assignor and assignee indemnification of Boeing for any actions taken by an assignee under any assignment agreement; Boeing’s right to exercise the manufacturer’s option to assume Customer’s rights under the Purchase Agreement in the event of a default under an assignment agreement; and confidentiality.  A Party that is
 
i.       bound by a customary confidentiality agreement;
 
ii.      neither an airplane manufacturer nor an airline;  and
 
iii.     responding to a Customer request for proposals to provide financing of Aircraft pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, including pre-delivery payment financing
 
shall be deemed a “Financing Party”.
 
Without Boeing’s consent, Customer may represent to any Financing Party that Boeing will provide to that Financing Party, concurrently with the delivery of each of the Aircraft to that Financing Party, [***] each Aircraft escalated to the month of delivery in the same manner as the Airframe Price as described in Supplemental Exhibit AE-1.  Insofar as such Financing Party is concerned, this Financier Credit Memorandum shall be in lieu of any other provision in this Letter Agreement. When the Customer identifies a Financing Party and the preliminary terms of an assignment under which pre-delivery payment financing (PDP) or aircraft purchase financing could be provided, at Customer’s request, Boeing agrees to enter into discussions with the Customer to consider whether an additional credit memorandum can be assigned, with the goal of helping Customer obtain third-party financing.
 
Boeing will consent to any reasonable request by Customer to assign the Purchase Agreement to an affiliate provided that Boeing is provided with an adequate  guarantee of performance of all obligations under this Purchase Agreement and in a form reasonably satisfactory to Boeing.
 
Customer understands that Boeing is not required under any circumstances to consent to an assignment that would constitute a novation.
 
The foregoing provisions are intended to supplement, and not to supersede, the assignment provisions of the AGTA, which address delivery date and post-delivery assignments, merger-type assignments, and other matters.
 
11.           MTOW and Other Configuration Matters.
 
Boeing recognizes that Customer requires early notification of Development Changes, incorporated into the Detail Specification, and Manufacturer Changes applicable to the Aircraft so Customer can evaluate, in a timely manner, the effect of such changes on maintenance and operation of the Aircraft.  Boeing will provide to Customer notification of such Developmental Changes and Manufacturer Changes affecting Customer's airplanes through Boeing's standard notification process.
 
[***]
 
 
 

 
 
12.
Acknowledgement of Financing Support.
 
Boeing acknowledges that financing assistance has been requested by Customer and discussions have been held between Customer and Boeing Capital Corporation.
 
13.
Confidential Treatment.
 
Boeing and Customer understand that the commercial and financial information contained in this Letter Agreement is considered by the parties as confidential (Confidential Information) and both agree not to disclose such Confidential Information except as provided herein.  In addition to the parties’ respective officers, directors and employees who need to know the Confidential Information and who understand the obligation to keep it confidential, the parties may disclose Confidential Information (1) to the extent required by law and (2) to its agents, auditors and advisors who need to know the Confidential Information for purposes of enabling each party to understand, perform its obligations under, or receive the benefits of, this Agreement and who have agreed not to use or disclose the Confidential Information for any other purpose without the other party’s prior written consent.  In the event that a party concludes that disclosure of Confidential Information contained in this Letter Agreement is required by applicable law, the party will so advise the other party promptly in writing and endeavor to protect the confidentiality of such Confidential Information to the widest extent possible.  In the event of a legal dispute with Boeing, nothing herein will preclude Customer from sharing with its legal counsel information necessary for purposes of enabling counsel to advise or represent Customer provided that so long as Customer causes its legal counsel to maintain the confidentiality of information that is the subject of this Article.  Except as provided in the assignment provisions of Article 10 of this Special Matters Letter Agreement, Customer will not disclose this Letter Agreement for purposes of financing payments without the prior written consent of Boeing, which consent will be provided once the financier enters into a Non Disclosure Agreement with Boeing in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Boeing, which will include agreeing not to disclose or use Confidential Information except for the purpose set forth herein. This provision shall not apply to any Confidential Information that is in the public domain except that a party will be liable to the other for breach of its obligations under this provision if the Confidential Information entered the public domain as a consequence of a wrongful act or omission on its part.

(c)           When the shareholders of LAN approve the Mergers, the share capital of LAN shall be increased by an aggregate amount equal to the sum of the share capital of Holdco 2 and the share capital of Sister Holdco at such time (the “Initial Capital Increase”). After the consummation of the Mergers, the share capital of LAN shall be increased by the amount by which the net asset value of the shares of TAM Stock determined pursuant to Section 2.07 exceeds, or decreased by the amount by which such net asset value is less than, the Initial Capital Increase.  The time at which the Mergers become effective is referred to herein as the “Effective Time.”

ARTICLE I
 
SCOPE OF AGREEMENT
 
SECTION 1.01                     Scope of Agreement.  The Shareholders desire to set forth in this Agreement certain terms and conditions upon which they have agreed to hold their Restricted Shares and their agreements with respect to the governance, control and operation of LATAM, Holdco 1, TAM and their respective Subsidiaries.  All actions required to be taken or performed under this Agreement shall be taken or performed in accordance with applicable Law.  The Shareholders agree that the specific provisions of this Agreement shall not be limited by any inconsistent or conflicting provisions of the By-laws and accordingly, as between parties, such specific provisions shall prevail over such provisions of the By-laws.

 
2

 

SECTION 1.02                     Effectiveness.  This Agreement shall become effective only if, and at that time at which, Holdco 1 becomes a holder of at least 80% of the outstanding ordinary shares of TAM (the “Effective Time”).
 
ARTICLE II
 
GOVERNANCE
 
SECTION 2.01                     Composition of the LATAM Board.  (a) The LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP each agree to exercise or cause to be exercised all voting rights in respect of all shares of LATAM Common Stock beneficially owned by it (as to each Shareholder at any time, its “Subject Shares”), and to use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the LATAM Controlling Shareholder Directors (in the case of the LATAM Controlling Shareholders) or the TEP Directors (in the case of TEP) to take all actions within their power that are necessary or appropriate to:
 
(i)           in the case of TEP, assist in the removal and replacement of the directors elected to the board of directors of LATAM (the “LATAM Board”) by the LATAM Controlling Shareholders through the vote of their Subject Shares (the “LATAM Controlling Shareholder Directors”);
 
(ii)           in the case of the LATAM Controlling Shareholders, assist in the removal and replacement of the director(s) elected to the LATAM Board by TEP through the vote of its Subject Shares and, if applicable, the director elected to the LATAM Board by the vote of the LATAM Controlling Shareholders pursuant to Section 2.01(b) (the “TEP Directors”);
 
(iii)         maintain the size of the LATAM Board at a total of nine directors; and
 
(iv)         maintain the quorum required for action by the LATAM Board at a majority of the total number of directors of the LATAM Board.
 
(b)          Until such time as TEP consummates any Partial Sale, unless TEP beneficially owns enough shares of LATAM Common Stock to elect two directors to the LATAM Board by voting such shares, the LATAM Controlling Shareholders agree to vote their Subject Shares for the election to the LATAM Board of any individual designated by TEP in a written notice delivered to the LATAM Controlling Shareholders no later than thirty days prior to the relevant election date.
 
 
3

 

(c)           Until the Full Ownership Trigger Date, TEP will take all necessary action to ensure that at all times when any individual is a TEP Director, such individual will also be a member of the board of directors of each of Holdco 1 and TAM.
 
SECTION 2.02                     Meetings of the LATAM Board.  Prior to each meeting of the LATAM Board, the LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP shall convene a meeting (each, a “Board Pre-Meeting”) to consult with each other and use their good faith efforts to reach agreement on all matters to come before the LATAM Board at such meeting (including the matters set forth in Article 56 of the Chilean Corporations Act (the “Chilean Corporate Law”)  No. 18.046) other than any action that would require the approval of two-thirds of the shareholders of LATAM under Article 67 of the Chilean Corporate Law (each, a “Supermajority Action”) and shall record their agreement, if any, on each such matter in the minutes of such Board Pre-Meeting.  Unless otherwise agreed between the LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP, each Board Pre-Meeting shall be held on the third business day prior to any regular meeting of the LATAM Board and on the business day prior to any special meeting of the LATAM Board.  If the LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP cannot reach agreement on any such matter prior to such meeting of the LATAM Board, then such matter shall be resolved by the LATAM Board at such meeting.  Nothing in this Section 2.02 shall be construed to prevent the LATAM Controlling Shareholder Directors or the TEP Directors from participating in any meeting of the LATAM Board or voting or participating in any such meeting.
 
SECTION 2.03                     Shareholder Votes on Non-Supermajority Actions.  Prior to each meeting of the shareholders of LATAM, the LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP shall convene a meeting (each, a “Shareholder Pre-Meeting”) to discuss and agree upon all matters to be submitted to a vote of the shareholders of LATAM other than any Supermajority Action and shall record their agreement, if any, on any such matter in the minutes of such Shareholder Pre-Meeting.  At each meeting of the shareholders of LATAM, each of the LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP shall vote or cause to be voted all of their Subject Shares in the same manner as a block on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders of LATAM other than a Supermajority Action and in favor of any such matter that has been approved by the LATAM Controlling Shareholder Directors and the TEP Directors (if any) or, in the absence of such approval, in accordance with the proposal of the LATAM Board to the shareholders of LATAM (without regard to the views or positions of the LATAM Controlling Shareholder Directors or any TEP Directors).  Unless otherwise agreed between the Shareholders, each Shareholder Pre-Meeting shall be held on the third business day prior to any regular meeting of the shareholders of LATAM and on the business day prior to any special meeting of the shareholders of LATAM.  If any shareholder of LATAM other than any Shareholder requests that any matter other than a Supermajority Action be submitted to a vote of the shareholders of LATAM at any meeting of the shareholders of LATAM, then the LATAM Controlling Shareholders shall cause the LATAM Controlling Shareholder Directors, and TEP shall cause the TEP Directors, to request that the LATAM Board consider such matter and make a proposal to the shareholders of LATAM with respect to such matter prior to such shareholder meeting.

SECTION 2.04                     Supermajority Matters. The LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP shall not vote on or take any action, and shall instruct the LATAM Controlling Shareholder Directors, in the case of the LATAM Controlling Shareholders, and the TEP Directors, in the case of TEP, not to vote on or take any action, in respect of any Supermajority Action except in compliance with this Section 2.04.  With respect to any proposed Supermajority Action, each of the LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP shall consult with each other, shall give due consideration to all views expressed by the other with respect to such Supermajority Action and shall use their good faith efforts to agree upon whether or not to approve any such Supermajority Action.  If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP cannot reach an agreement with respect to such Supermajority Action, then the LATAM Controlling Shareholders, on the one hand, and TEP, on the other hand, will each appoint a senior representative thereof who will negotiate in good faith with the senior representative appointed by the other for a period of 30 days, which initial period may be extended for one additional 30-day period by either the LATAM Controlling Shareholders or TEP by delivering a written notice to the other (such period, as it may be extended or shortened pursuant to this Section 2.04 or by mutual agreement of the Shareholders, the “Mediation Period”).  If a special meeting of the shareholders of LATAM has been called to vote on a Supermajority Action other than as a result of any action by a Shareholder or any LATAM Controlling Shareholder Director or TEP Director, the LATAM Controlling Shareholders shall cause the LATAM Controlling Shareholder Directors, and TEP shall cause the TEP Directors, to try to convince the LATAM Board to call such meeting of shareholders of LATAM so that there will be sufficient time for a thirty-day Mediation Period prior to such shareholders meeting unless such directors’ fiduciary duties require that such shareholders meeting be held earlier.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a special meeting of the shareholders of LATAM has been called to vote on a Supermajority Action other than as a result of any action by a Shareholder or any LATAM Controlling Shareholder Director or TEP Director and such special meeting will occur prior to the date when the Mediation Period would otherwise end, then the Mediation Period shall end on the second business day prior to the date on which such special meeting will be held.  During the Mediation Period the senior representatives selected by the LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP shall meet with a mediator jointly selected by them, together with any relevant experts and advisors that they agree to retain and include in the mediation process, in an attempt to resolve their disagreement with respect to such Supermajority Action.  The fees and expenses of each mediator, expert or advisor shall be shared equally between the LATAM Controlling Shareholders, on the one hand, and TEP, on the other hand.  Each senior representative shall give due consideration to the positions, views and arguments of the other senior representative and shall negotiate in good faith with the other senior representative in an attempt to reach a mutually acceptable position or alternative with respect to such Supermajority Action.  If the Shareholders’ disagreement with respect to such Supermajority Action remains unresolved after the Mediation Period, then each of the LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP will vote or cause to be voted all of their Subject Shares with respect to such Supermajority Action as directed by the LATAM Controlling Shareholders to TEP in writing prior to the relevant shareholder meeting (each, a “LATAM Controlling Shareholder Directed Action”).  The LATAM Controlling Shareholders will vote or cause to be voted all of their Subject Shares to approve, and will cause the LATAM Controlling Shareholder Directors to approve and implement, and TEP will vote or cause to be voted all of its Subject Shares to approve, and will cause the TEP Directors to approve and implement, each Supermajority Action that has been approved by agreement of the LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP or, in the case of a LATAM Controlling Shareholder Directed Action, as directed by the LATAM Controlling Shareholders.  Unless otherwise agreed between the Shareholders, no Shareholder will vote or cause to be voted any of its Subject Shares to approve any amendment to the By-laws that would require any action, other than any Supermajority Action, to be approved by the holders of shares constituting more than a simple majority of the issued and outstanding shares of LATAM Common Stock at a duly called meeting of the shareholders of LATAM at which a quorum is present and acting throughout.

ARTICLE III
 
TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS
 
SECTION 3.01                     Restrictions on Transfers.  No Shareholder will, or will permit any of its Affiliates (including the ultimate beneficial owners of such Shareholder) to, directly or indirectly, by operation of law or otherwise, sell, exchange, transfer, convey, assign, mortgage, pledge, encumber or otherwise dispose of any direct or indirect interest in, or beneficial ownership of (each, a “Transfer”), all or any portion of such Shareholder’s Restricted Shares to any Person except in compliance with this Article III.  The LATAM Controlling Shareholders and TEP each shall have the right, exercisable at any time or from time to time by written notice delivered to the other Shareholder(s), to exempt from the provisions of this Article III all or any portion of its shares of Restricted Common Stock not to exceed [·] shares1 (any such shares so exempted by a Shareholder at any time, its “Exempted Shares”).  Except pursuant to Section 3.04 or as otherwise expressly provided herein, prior to the Third Anniversary, no Shareholder will, or will permit any of its Affiliates (including the ultimate beneficial owners of such Shareholder) to, directly or indirectly, Transfer all or any portion of its Restricted Shares to any Person, unless the other Shareholder(s) has or have given its or prior written consent to such Transfer.  On and after the Third Anniversary, the Shareholders shall have the right to Transfer, or to permit any of its Affiliates (including the ultimate beneficial owners of such Shareholder) to Transfer, their Restricted Shares only pursuant to and in compliance with the terms of Sections 3.02, 3.03 and 3.04.  Any Transfer made other than in compliance with the terms of this Article III shall be null and void and of no force or effect.  The Shareholders shall be entitled to specific performance (to the extent permitted by applicable Law) of their rights under this Article III, in addition to any other legal and equitable remedies to which they may be entitled under applicable Law.

(B)           Prior to a Block Sale, the Person to whom such Restricted Shares are to be sold or transferred shall have been approved by a resolution duly adopted by the LATAM Board as a buyer of the shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock beneficially owned by TEP; it being agreed that the LATAM Board shall grant such approval without unreasonable delay unless it has a bona fide business objection to such Person being the transferee of such shares or if a Transfer of such shares to such Person would, in the reasonable determination of the LATAM Board, be inconsistent with applicable Law in Brazil.
 
(C)           No Block Sale shall be permitted if it would have a material adverse effect on the ability of (x) LATAM or Holdco 1 to own, or to receive the full benefits of ownership of, TAM and its Subsidiaries or (y) TAM or its Subsidiaries to operate their airline businesses worldwide (each, an “Adverse Effect”).
 
(D)           A Block Sale shall be subject to the rights of first offer pursuant to Section 3.05.

SECTION 3.05                     Right of First Offer.
 
(a)           If a Shareholder elects to sell or transfer all or any portion of its shares of Restricted Common Stock as permitted by the applicable provisions of Section 3.02 or 3.03, such sale or transfer (and, in the case of a sale or transfer pursuant to Section 3.02(c)(i), Section 3.02(d) or Section 3.02(e) (each, a “Whole Block Sale”), the related sale or transfer of shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock) shall be subject to the right of first offer provided in this Section 3.05 except to the extent that Section 3.02 or 3.03 expressly provides that such right of first offer shall not apply to such sale or transfer.  Unless the context otherwise requires, each Shareholder and its Affiliates shall be deemed to be a single Shareholder for purposes of this Section 3.05.  The Shareholder electing to make any such sale or transfer (the “Selling Shareholder”) shall give written notice thereof (each, an “Offer Notice”) to the other Shareholder (the “Non-Selling Shareholder”), which notice shall set forth the number of shares of Restricted Common Stock (and, if applicable, shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock) proposed to be sold or transferred (collectively, the “Subject Securities”), a single price in cash that Selling Shareholder is willing to accept for the Subject Securities (the “Proposed Purchase Price,” of which an amount equal to the Non-Selling Shareholder’s then current tax basis in such shares and any costs that it is required to incur to effect such sale shall be allocated to any Holdco 1 Voting Stock included in the Subject Securities) and any other material terms and conditions of the proposed sale or transfer.  The Non-Selling Shareholder shall have the right to purchase the Subject Securities at the Proposed Purchase Price and on the other terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice (“ROFO Right”).  The Non-Selling Shareholder may exercise its ROFO Right in whole but not in part by delivering written notice of such election (each, an “Acceptance Notice”) to the Selling Shareholder within 30 days after the date on which it received the Offer Notice (the “Offer Period”).  If the Non-Selling Shareholder does not deliver an Acceptance Notice to the Selling Shareholder by the end of the Offer Period, it will no longer be able to exercise its ROFO Right with respect to the Subject Securities.  For all sales or transfers pursuant to Section 3.02 (other than Sections 3.02(a) and (b)), the Non-Selling Shareholder shall have the right (but not the obligation) to assign its ROFO Rights in whole or in part to any Person; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of a Whole Block Sale the LATAM Controlling Shareholders may only assign its ROFO Rights to a Person approved in advance by the LATAM Board and whose purchase would not have an Adverse Effect.  If the Non-Selling Shareholder elects to assign any ROFO Right pursuant to this Section 3.05(a) to any Person, then the Non-Selling Shareholder shall describe such assignment in its Acceptance Notice, including the identity of the assignee and the Subject Securities that are the subject of the assignment, and the Selling Shareholder shall sell or transfer such Subject Securities to such assignee in lieu of the Non-Selling Shareholder.
 
 
11

 
 
(b)           If the Non-Selling Shareholder (i) does not deliver an Acceptance Notice during the Offer Period or (ii) delivers an Acceptance Notice during the Offer Period in which it (and/or any assignee) elects to purchase less than all of the Subject Securities, then the Selling Shareholder shall have the right to market and sell all of the Subject Securities to a third party for an all-cash purchase price no less than the Proposed Purchase Price and on terms and conditions no more favorable to the purchaser than those contained in the Offer Notice during the 90-day period commencing on the day immediately following, in the case of clause (i), the last day of the Offer Period or, in the case of clause (ii), the date on which such Acceptance Notice was delivered (such period, the “Sale Period”).  If the Subject Securities are not sold during the Sale Period or if Selling Shareholder seeks to reduce the sale price below the Proposed Purchase Price or to offer other sale terms and conditions that are more favorable to the purchaser than those contained in the Offer Notice, all of the provisions of this Section 3.05 shall again apply with respect to any sale or transfer of such Subject Securities.
 
(c)           If the Non-Selling Shareholder delivers an Acceptance Notice to the Selling Shareholder during the Offer Period in which it (and/or any assignee) elects to purchase all of the Subject Securities, then there shall be deemed a valid, legally binding and enforceable agreement between the Selling Shareholder, on the one hand, and the Non-Selling Shareholder (and/or any such assignee) (each, a “Purchaser”), on the other hand, for the sale or transfer of the Subject Securities for the Proposed Purchase Price and on the other terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice.  The closing of any such sale or transfer shall take place at 10 a.m., New York time, on the later of (A) the 30th business day after the day on which such Acceptance Notice was received by Selling Shareholder and (B) the first date on which all of the consents, approvals or authorizations required by Law from any Governmental Entity for such sale or transfer are obtained at the principal office of LATAM or on such other date or at such other place as may be agreed to between the Selling Shareholder and the Purchaser(s), and the following provisions shall apply:
 
 
12

 

(i)           the Selling Shareholder shall execute such instruments of transfer as are customarily executed and reasonably requested to evidence and consummate the sale or transfer of the Subject Securities to each Purchaser; and
 
(ii)          each party shall bear its own legal fees and expenses in connection with such sale or transfer.
 
SECTION 3.06                   Additional Requirements.  Each Shareholder agrees that it will not Transfer any of its Restricted Shares if such Transfer would violate any applicable Law (each, a “Prohibited Transfer”).  If and to the extent permitted by applicable Law, LATAM and Holdco 1, as applicable, may refuse to register any Prohibited Transfer, and each Shareholder hereby waives any rights it may have in the future to object to or challenge any such refusal in respect of any Transfer that is determined to be a Prohibited Transfer by a final and non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.
 
SECTION 3.07                   Assignment of Rights.   Any transferee of Restricted Shares Transferred pursuant to Sections 3.02(c), (d) or (e) or Section 3.04 shall execute a counterpart to this Agreement agreeing to be bound by all the terms and conditions hereof.  Except for Affiliate Transfers made pursuant to Section 3.04 or as otherwise contemplated in this Article III, no Shareholder shall have the right to assign any of its rights under this Agreement to any permitted transferee of such Shareholder’s Restricted Shares.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations and warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:

 
 

 

ARTICLE I
 
GOVERNANCE OF HOLDCO 1
 
SECTION 1.01                  Scope of the Agreement; Effective Time.  The Parties desire to set forth in this Agreement certain terms and conditions upon which they have agreed to hold their shares of Holdco 1 Stock, including with respect to disposition and voting thereof, as well as their agreements with respect to governance, management and operation of, and the relationship among, Holdco 1 and its Subsidiaries and certain other matters.  In the event of any inconsistency or conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the other Organizational Documents of Holdco 1 or any of its Subsidiaries, this Agreement shall control and the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to amend any such Organizational Documents to conform to the provisions of this Agreement and to exercise their rights under such Organizational Documents to give effect to such provisions.  This Agreement shall become effective only if, and at that time at which, Holdco 1 becomes a holder of at least 80% of the outstanding shares of TAM Ordinary Stock (the “Effective Time”).  All actions required to be taken or performed under this Agreement shall be taken or performed in accordance with applicable Law.
 
SECTION 1.02                  Formation of Holdco 1.  Prior to the date of this Agreement, TEP and LATAM incorporated Holdco 1 as a closed sociedad anónima under the Law of Chile with the by-laws in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto (the “Holdco 1 By-Laws”) for the sole purpose of owning the shares of TAM Ordinary Stock to be contributed by TEP.  From and after the Effective Time, the parties agree that all acquisitions of TAM Ordinary Stock by any member of the LATAM Group shall be made by Holdco 1.
 
SECTION 1.03                  Role and Composition of the Holdco 1 Board.  The business and affairs of Holdco 1 shall be managed under the direction of the board of directors of Holdco 1 (the “Holdco 1 Board”) in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Organizational Documents of Holdco 1.  At all times, the Holdco 1 Board shall be comprised of the same number of directors as the number of directors that then comprise the board of directors of TAM (the “TAM Board”) and the directors of Holdco 1 shall be the same individuals that then are directors of TAM.  The Holdco 1 Board shall be comprised of six directors and initially LATAM shall have the right to elect two individuals to the Holdco 1 Board and TEP shall have the right to elect four individuals to the Holdco 1 Board. Whenever LATAM or TEP so elects or appoints any individual as a director of Holdco 1, it will select, and Holdco 1 will elect or appoint, the same individual as a director of TAM.  Each person so elected by LATAM or TEP as a director of Holdco 1 is referred to herein as one of such Shareholder’s “Director Representatives”).  The term of office for the directors of the Holdco 1 Board shall be two years.

 
2

 

SECTION 1.04                  Removal and Vacancies.  In the event of any vacancy on the Holdco 1 Board resulting from the resignation, incapacity, retirement, death or removal of any Director Representative of any Shareholder, such Shareholder shall have the right to designate another individual to replace such Director Representative on the Holdco 1 Board.  In such event, the Shareholders shall cause their Director Representatives to request that the Holdco 1 Chairman call a special meeting of the Holdco 1 Board in order to appoint such designee to the Holdco 1 Board and to serve until the next annual meeting of the shareholders of Holdco 1 and at such meeting shall cause their Director Representatives to make such appointment. At the same time, LATAM and TEP shall cause their Director Representatives in their capacity as directors of TAM to request that the chairman of the TAM Board (the “TAM Chairman”) call a special meeting of the shareholders of TAM to elect such designee to the TAM Board and Holdco 1 shall elect such designee to the TAM Board to serve until the next annual meeting of the shareholders of TAM.  If at any time any Director Representative of any Shareholder ceases to be a member of the TAM Board, such Shareholder shall promptly cause him or her to resign or to be removed from the Holdco 1 Board and the Shareholders will replace such Director Representative on the Holdco 1 Board pursuant to the foregoing procedures.

SECTION 1.05                  Enabling Provisions.
 
(a)           Each Shareholder agrees that it shall vote, or cause to be voted or execute written consents for, as the case may be, all shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock beneficially owned by it, and each Party shall take all other action reasonably necessary (including by causing Holdco 1 or TAM to call a special meeting of shareholders or the Holdco 1 Chairman or the TAM Chairman to call a special meeting of the Holdco 1 Board or the TAM Board, as applicable) so as to give effect to the agreements with respect to representation on the Holdco 1 Board and the TAM Board contained in this Article I and to ensure that the other Organizational Documents of Holdco 1 and TAM (i) facilitate, enable and do not at any time conflict with any provision of this Agreement and (ii) permit each Shareholder to receive the full benefits to which each Shareholder is entitled under this Agreement.  Each Party further agrees that it shall not take any action directly as a shareholder of Holdco 1 or TAM, indirectly through any of its Director Representatives as members of the Holdco 1 Board or the TAM Board, or otherwise that would contravene or frustrate the implementation of these agreements, and that it shall cause all of its Director Representatives as members of the Holdco 1 Board or the TAM Board to act at all times in conformity with, and to take such action as may reasonably be required of and available to them to ensure the fulfillment of, the terms of this Agreement and the other Organizational Documents of Holdco 1 and TAM.  Holdco 1 agrees not to take, or to cause or permit TAM to take, any action that would conflict with or subvert the operation or enforcement of any provision of this Agreement or that would impede any Shareholder’s ability to receive the full benefits to which such Shareholder is entitled under this Agreement.
 
(b)           Each Shareholder shall cause any and all shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock beneficially owned by it and entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders of Holdco 1 to be present in person or represented by proxy at all annual and special meetings of shareholders of Holdco 1 to the extent necessary so that all shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock beneficially owned by it shall be counted as present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum at such meeting.  Each Shareholder further agrees to execute from time to time in the future any document or documents required by Law to keep the agreements contained in this Section 1.05 in full force and effect at all times throughout the term of this Agreement.  Each Shareholder agrees that it will take all necessary actions (including amending the Holdco 1 By-Laws) to effect and implement any stock splits or reverse stock splits of the Holdco 1 Non-Voting Stock at such times and in such proportions as any holder thereof shall request if (but only if) such split is necessary or advisable to permit or preserve the ability of TAM or any of its Subsidiaries to conduct operations in any market worldwide.

SECTION 1.06                  Holdco 1 Chairman.  For so long as TEP is entitled to elect at least one director to the Holdco 1 Board, TEP shall have the right to designate from time to time one of its Director Representatives to serve as chairman of the Holdco 1 Board (the “Holdco 1 Chairman”), who at all times shall be the same individual who is then serving as the TAM Chairman.  After such designation, each Shareholder shall cause its Director Representatives to cause  the Holdco 1 Board to appoint such Director Representative as the Holdco 1 Chairman in accordance with the Organizational Documents of Holdco 1. Each time an individual is so appointed as the Holdco 1 Chairman, LATAM and TEP shall cause their Director Representatives in their capacity as directors of TAM, and Holdco 1 shall cause the directors of TAM, to appoint the same individual as the TAM Chairman in accordance with the Organizational Documents of TAM (as defined in the TAM Shareholders Agreement).  As of the Effective Time and for a minimum period of two years, the Holdco 1 Chairman shall be Maria Cláudia Oliveira Amaro.  In no event shall the Holdco 1 Chairman have a casting vote with respect to any matter before the Holdco 1 Board.
 
SECTION 1.07                  Meetings of the Holdco 1 Board.
 
(a)           Regular meetings of the Holdco 1 Board shall be held on a monthly basis, and each regular monthly meeting of the Holdco 1 Board shall occur on the same day as, and promptly before the regular monthly meeting of the TAM Board and within three business days after the regular monthly meeting of the board of directors of LATAM.
 
(b)           Special meetings of the Holdco 1 Board may be called by the Holdco 1 Chairman on not less than 48 hours’ notice to each director of the Holdco 1 Board, and such meetings shall be called by the Holdco 1 Chairman with like notice and like manner promptly after receipt of a written request for a special meeting of the Holdco 1 Board by any one director of the Holdco 1 Board; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing a special meeting of the Holdco 1 Board may be so called on any shorter notice permitted by applicable Law if necessary or desirable in the particular circumstances.
 
(c)           The Holdco 1 By-Laws shall provide that the directors of the Holdco 1 Board shall be permitted to participate in, and shall be deemed to be present at, any meeting of the Holdco 1 Board using teleconference or any other means pursuant to which all the directors participating in such meeting can speak to and hear one another.

(a)           Block Sales.  On and after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Time (the “Tenth Anniversary”) and prior to the first date on which LATAM would be permitted under applicable Law in Brazil and other applicable Law to fully convert all of the shares of Holdco 1 Non-Voting Stock beneficially owned by LATAM and its Affiliates into shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock and such conversion would not have any Adverse Effect (the “Full Conversion Date”), TEP may sell or transfer all (but not less than all) of its shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock to any Person in a single block sale (a “Block Sale”) if (but only if) such Block Sale complies with all of the requirements set forth in this Section 3.01(a).
 
(i)           A Block Sale must include all of the shares of LATAM Common Stock that TEP is contractually obligated to transfer along with its shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock (collectively, “LATAM Shares”) in such Block Sale.
 
(ii)           Prior to a Block Sale, the Person to whom such shares are to be sold or transferred has been approved by a resolution duly adopted by the LATAM Board as a buyer of such shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock; it being agreed that the LATAM Board shall grant such approval without unreasonable delay unless it has a bona fide business objection to such Person being the transferee of such shares or if a transfer of such shares to such Person would, in the reasonable determination of the LATAM Board, be inconsistent with applicable Law in Brazil.
 
(iii)         No Block Sale shall be permitted if it would have a material adverse effect on the ability of (x) LATAM or Holdco 1 to own, or to receive the full benefits of ownership of, TAM and its Subsidiaries or (y) TAM or its Subsidiaries to operate their airline businesses worldwide (each, an “Adverse Effect”).

(c)           Release Event Sales.  If a Release Event occurs and prior to such Release Event TEP has not sold or transferred any shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock and/or any shares of LATAM Common Stock that were (i) beneficially owned by TEP immediately after the Effective Time and (ii) not exempted from the provisions of Article III of the Control Group Shareholders Agreement at the time of such sale or transfer (collectively, “LATAM Restricted Shares”), then at any time after such Release Event, TEP shall have the right to sell or transfer all (but not less than all) of its shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock together with its LATAM Restricted Shares; provided, however, that if the sale or transfer occurs prior to the Full Conversion Date it must comply with the requirements of Section 3.01(a) but without giving effect to the phrase “On and after the Tenth Anniversary and,” at the beginning of such section.  A “Release Event” shall be deemed to have occurred only if and when each of the following events shall have occurred: (i) a capital increase (as defined under the Law of Chile) in LATAM is completed after the Effective Time, (ii) TEP does not fully exercise the preemptive rights granted to it under applicable Law in Chile with respect to such capital increase in respect of all of its LATAM Restricted Shares, (iii) after such capital increase is completed, the individual designated by TEP for election to the LATAM Board with the assistance of the LATAM Controlling Shareholders is not elected to such board.

TEP hereby irrevocably grants LATAM the assignable right to purchase all of the shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock beneficially owned by TEP in connection with any sale pursuant to the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence.

SECTION 3.02                  Ownership Control Events.  If at any time LATAM is permitted under the Law of Brazil and other applicable Law to beneficially own a greater percentage of the issued and outstanding shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock than it currently beneficially owns, then LATAM shall have the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, to convert the shares of Holdco 1 Non-Voting Stock beneficially owned by it into shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock on a 1:1 basis or at another conversion ratio agreed to by LATAM and TEP in writing prior to such conversion, in each case to the maximum extent allowable under applicable Law (the “Conversion Option”) by providing written notice of such election to TEP and Holdco 1 (each, an “Ownership Notice”); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing LATAM may exercise the Conversion Option only if and to the extent that the consummation of such exercise would not have any Adverse Effect.  If at any time LATAM is permitted under applicable Law to have more than two Director Representatives on the Holdco 1 Board, then LATAM shall have the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, to appoint additional Director Representatives to the Holdco 1 Board in accordance with Section 1.03 by providing written notice of such election to TEP and Holdco 1 (each, a “Director Election Notice”); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing LATAM shall not have the right to deliver any Director Election Notice that would result in it appointing half or a majority of the members of any Holdco 1 Board unless at such time LATAM is permitted under applicable Law in Brazil and other applicable Law to own a majority of the outstanding shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock.  Promptly following delivery of any Ownership Notice or Director Election Notice to TEP and Holdco 1, each of Holdco 1 and TEP shall cooperate with LATAM and shall take or cause to be taken all actions (including by calling a special meeting of shareholders of Holdco 1 to remove all the directors of the Holdco 1 and to relect such directors and elect the additional individuals designated by LATAM to the Holdco 1 Board), and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under the Organizational Documents of Holdco 1 and applicable Law to permit LATAM to increase its representation on the Holdco 1 Board and/or to convert such shares of Holdco 1 Non-Voting Stock into shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock pursuant to this Section 3.02.  Without limitation of the foregoing, TEP agrees to cause one or more of its Director Representatives to resign from each Holdco 1 Board promptly following request therefor from LATAM in order to effectuate the purpose of this Section 3.02.  LATAM and Holdco 1 shall take all necessary action to ensure that at the same time that any individuals are added or removed from the Holdco 1 Board as a result of this Section 3.02 the same individuals are added or removed from the TAM Board.  On and after the Tenth Anniversary and after LATAM has fully converted all of the shares of Holdco 1 Non-Voting Stock beneficially owned by it into shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock as permitted by applicable Law in Brazil and other applicable Law (the “Full Ownership Conversion Date”), then LATAM shall have the right to purchase all of the shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock held by all holders of such shares for an amount equal to TEP’s then current tax basis in such shares and any costs TEP is required to incur to effect such sale (the “Call Option”).  If LATAM does not exercise the Call Option within 30 days following the occurrence of the Full Ownership Conversion Date or if, after the Tenth Anniversary, LATAM has the right under applicable Law in Brazil and other applicable Law to fully convert all the shares of Holdco 1 Non-Voting Stock beneficially owned by it into shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock, such conversion would not have an Adverse Effect and LATAM has not fully exercised such right within 30 days after the first date on which LATAM has such right, then each of the holders of the shares of Holdco 1 Voting Stock shall have the right to put its shares to LATAM for an amount equal to its then current tax basis in such shares and any costs that it is required to incur to effect such sale.

W I T N E S S E T H
 
WHEREAS, as of the Effective Time (as defined below),  Holdco 1 will own 100% of the shares of ordinary stock, no par value (the “TAM Ordinary Stock”), of TAM and LATAM will own 100% of the shares of the non-voting preferred stock, no par value (the “TAM Preferred Stock” and, together with the TAM Ordinary Stock, the “TAM Stock”), of TAM, which collectively will constitute all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of TAM;
 
WHEREAS, as of the Effective Time, TEP and LATAM collectively will own 100% of the outstanding voting shares of Holdco 1;
 
WHEREAS, the Parties desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions upon which they have agreed to hold their shares of TAM Stock, including with respect to the voting thereof, as well as their agreements with respect to governance, management and operation of TAM and its Subsidiaries and certain other matters; and
 
WHEREAS, each of LATAM and Holdco 1 has determined and declared that the execution and delivery of this Agreement is in its best interests, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by it have been duly authorized by its board of directors and all other necessary corporate action on the part of it.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and agreements contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
 
ARTICLE I

GOVERNANCE OF TAM

SECTION 1.01                     Scope of the Agreement; Effective Time.  The Parties desire to set forth in this Agreement certain terms and conditions upon which the shares of TAM Stock will be held, including with respect to the voting thereof, as well as their agreements with respect to governance, management and operation of TAM and its Subsidiaries and certain other matters.  In the event of any inconsistency or conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the other Organizational Documents of TAM or any of its Subsidiaries, this Agreement shall control and the Parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to amend any such Organizational Documents to conform to the provisions of this Agreement and to exercise their rights under such Organizational Documents to give effect to such provisions.  This Agreement shall become effective only if, and at that time at which, Holdco 1 becomes a holder of at least 80% of the outstanding shares of TAM Ordinary Stock (the “Effective Time”).  All actions required to be taken or performed under this Agreement shall be taken or performed in accordance with applicable Law.

 
 

 

SECTION 1.02                     Role and Composition of the TAM Board.  The business and affairs of TAM shall be managed under the direction of the board of directors of TAM (the “TAM Board”) in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Organizational Documents of TAM.  The TAM Board shall be comprised of six board members to be elected by Holdco 1. Holdco 1 agrees to elect two individuals selected by LATAM and four individuals selected by TEP as the six board members of TAM (each person so selected by LATAM or TEP is referred to herein as one of their “Board Representatives”).  The term of office for the board members of TAM shall be two years.  If at any time LATAM is permitted under applicable Law to select more than two Board Representatives on the TAM Board, then LATAM shall have the right, exercisable in its sole discretion, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, to cause Holdco 1 to elect additional Board Representatives to the TAM Board by providing written notice of such election to Holdco 1 (each, a “Board Representative Election Notice”); provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing LATAM shall not have the right to deliver any Board Representative Election Notice that would result in it selecting half or a majority of the members of the TAM Board unless at such time LATAM is permitted under applicable Law in Brazil and other applicable Law to own a majority of the outstanding voting shares of Holdco 1.  Promptly following delivery of any Board Representative Election Notice to Holdco 1, Holdco 1 shall cooperate with LATAM and shall take or cause to be taken all actions (including by calling a special meeting of shareholders of TAM to elect the additional individuals selected by LATAM for election to the TAM Board), and do or cause to be done all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under the other Organizational Documents of TAM and applicable Law to permit LATAM to increase its representation on the TAM Board pursuant to this Section 1.02.  Without limitation of the foregoing, Holdco 1 agrees to cause one or more of TEP’s Board Representatives to resign from the TAM Board promptly following request therefor from LATAM in order to effectuate the purpose of this Section 1.02.
 

SECTION 1.03                     Removal and Vacancies.  In the event of any vacancy on the TAM Board resulting from the resignation, incapacity, retirement, death or removal (each, a “Departure”) of any Board Representative of LATAM or TEP, such party shall have the right to select another individual to replace such Board Representative on the TAM Board.  In such event, Holdco 1 shall cause a special meeting of the shareholders of TAM to be held to elect such replacement to the TAM Board and at such meeting shall elect such replacement to the TAM Board to serve until the next annual meeting of the shareholders of TAM.  If at any time any Board Representative of LATAM or TEP ceases to be a board member of Holdco 1, Holdco 1 shall promptly cause him or her to resign or to be removed from the TAM Board and Holdco 1 will replace such Board Representative on the TAM Board pursuant to the foregoing procedures.

SECTION 1.04                     Enabling Provisions.
 
(a)           Holdco 1 agrees that it shall vote, or cause to be voted or execute written consents for, as the case may be, all shares of TAM Ordinary Stock beneficially owned by it, and shall take all other action reasonably necessary (including by causing TAM to call a special meeting of shareholders or the TAM Chairman to call a special meeting of the TAM Board, as applicable) so as to give effect to the agreements with respect to representation on the TAM Board contained in this Article I and to ensure that the by-laws of TAM (i) facilitate, enable and do not at any time conflict with any provision of this Agreement and (ii) permit each of LATAM and TEP to receive the full benefits to which it is entitled under this Agreement.  Holdco 1 further agrees that it shall not take any action directly as a shareholder of TAM, and each of LATAM and TEP agree it shall not take any action indirectly through any of its Board Representatives, or otherwise that would contravene or frustrate the implementation of these agreements. Each of LATAM and TEP shall cause all of its Board Representatives, and Holdco 1 shall cause each board member of TAM, to act at all times in conformity with, and to take such action as may reasonably be required of and available to them to ensure the fulfillment of, the terms of this Agreement and the by-laws of TAM.  TAM agrees not to take any action that would conflict with or subvert the operation or enforcement of any provision of this Agreement or that would impede any party’s ability to receive the full benefits to which such party is entitled under this Agreement.
 
(b)           Holdco 1 shall cause any and all shares of TAM Ordinary Stock beneficially owned by it and entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders of TAM to be present in person or represented by proxy at all annual and special meetings of shareholders of TAM to the extent necessary so that all shares of TAM Ordinary Stock beneficially owned by it shall be counted as present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum at such meeting.  Each party agrees to execute from time to time in the future any document or documents required by Law to keep the agreements contained in this Section 1.04 in full force and effect at all times throughout the term of this Agreement.
 
SECTION 1.05                     TAM Chairman.  For so long as TEP is entitled to select at least one individual to be elected as a board member of TAM, TEP shall have the right to designate from time to time one of its Board Representatives to serve as the chairman of the TAM Board (the “TAM Chairman”).  After any such designation, Holdco 1 shall cause the TAM Board to appoint such Board Representative as the TAM Chairman in accordance with the Organizational Documents of TAM.  From and after the Effective Time until the second anniversary of the Effective Time, the TAM Chairman shall be Maria Cláudia Oliveira Amaro.  In no event shall the TAM Chairman have a casting vote with respect to any matter before the TAM Board.
 
SECTION 1.06                     Meetings of the TAM Board.  Regular meetings of the TAM Board shall be held on a monthly basis.  Special meetings of the TAM Board may be called by the TAM Chairman on not less than 48 hours’ notice to each board member of TAM, and such meetings shall be called by the TAM Chairman with like notice and like manner promptly after receipt of a written request for a special meeting of the TAM Board by any one board member of  TAM; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing a special meeting of the TAM Board may be so called on any shorter notice permitted by applicable Law if necessary or desirable in the particular circumstances.

SECTION 1.09                     Board Supermajority Matters.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement or the other Organizational Documents of TAM or any of its Subsidiaries to the contrary, neither TAM nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, and TAM shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, engage in or take, directly or indirectly, any of the following actions (each, a “Board Supermajority Matter”), unless approved by a Supermajority Board Vote:

Similarly, any knowledge or information that Customer discloses to GE with respect to its operations performance, maintenance programs, and the like, is proprietary to Customer, and GE shall hold such information in confidence.  Such information shall not be reproduced, or disclosed to others by GE without Customer’s prior written consent, except to the extent required by government agencies and courts for official purposes and to GE’s affiliates, subsidiaries, subcontractors and vendors for the performance of services related to this Agreement.  Disclosures required by government agencies and courts shall be made only (i) [***] calendar days advance written notice to Customer of such disclosure (unless the applicable law requires disclosure within that period, in which case GE shall give as much notice as is reasonably practicable), so as to provide Customer the ability to obtain appropriate protective orders, and (ii) with a suitable restrictive legend limiting further disclosure.  Disclosures to GE’s affiliates, subsidiaries, subcontractors and vendors shall be made only when and if such subcontractors and vendors have executed a confidentiality agreement that affords Customer substantially the same protection as required hereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, where Customer is a lessee or otherwise not the owner of the Engines, GE reserves the right to disclose engine operational performance data to the owner of the Engines, [***].

 
5.3
Exceptions.  The preceding Sections 5.1 and 5.2 shall not apply to information which (i) is or becomes part of the general public knowledge or literature otherwise than as a result of breach of a Party’s obligations hereunder, or (ii) was, as shown by written records, known to the disclosing Party prior to receipt from the other Party, or (iii) is disclosed without restriction to a Party by a third party having the right to do so.

 
5.4
Customer consents and agrees that all proprietary Customer information and data (including, without limitation, GE’s diagnostics system data output relevant to Customer) may be transmitted between GE and [***].

 
5.6
Customer acknowledges that the Services performed may be conducted by GE affiliates outside of the U.S., and that GE's disclosure of Customer data for such purposes is permitted.

6.
Indemnification

 
6.1
GE shall handle all claims and defend any suit or proceeding (each a “Claim”) brought against Customer, including payment of damages awarded against Customer in a final judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction, insofar as:
 
a)
it is based on a claim that without further combination, the use of the myEngines interface constitutes an infringement of any patent of the United States, France or of any patent of any other country that is signatory to the Convention on International Civil Aviation signed by the United States at Chicago on December 7, 1944, [***], or
 
b)
it is the result of any infringement or alleged infringement by GE of any copyright in respect of any computer software provided to Customer by GE as part of or in connection with the myEngines interface, provided that GE’s obligations in this regard shall be limited to infringements or alleged infringements in any country which at the time of such infringement or alleged infringement is a member of the Berne Union and recognizes computer software as a "work" under the Berne Convention,
provided that (i) Customer promptly notifies GE writing of the Claim; (ii) Customer makes no admission of liability and gives GE sole authority, at GE’s sole expense, to direct and control the defense and any settlement and compromise negotiations; and (iii) Customer provides GE with full disclosure and assistance [***] that may be reasonably required to defend any such Claim. To the extent that any aspect of the myEngines digital Services or modules becomes the subject of a Claim, GE may at its option and expense (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using the relevant myEngines Services, or any portion thereof, (b) modify or replace the myEngines modules, in whole or in part, to make them non-infringing, or (c) refund any applicable fees. GE shall not be responsible to Company or its customers for incidental or consequential damage, including, but not limited to, costs, expenses, liabilities and loss of profits resulting from loss of use under this Section 6.1. The obligations recited in this Section 6.1 shall constitute the sole and exclusive remedies of Company and the sole and exclusive liability of GE for actual and alleged patent or copyright infringement.

 
6.2
Customer hereby waives all rights of recourse against GE and agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless GE from and against any and all liabilities, claims, damages, losses, and judgments (whether in contract, tort, negligence of any kind, including strict liability, or otherwise) which may be suffered by, accrued against, be charged to, or recoverable from GE by reason of loss of, damage to or loss of use of any property (including intellectual property and proprietary information) of the Customer, and/or by reason of the use and/or provision of the myEngines digital Services, except to the extent that such loss or damage is due to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of GE. This waiver does not extend to any breach by GE of its express obligations under this Agreement, including any breach of Section 5.2. The indemnity provided by this Section 6.2 does not extend to matters covered by section 6.1

7.
Limitation of Liability

 
7.1
The total liability of GE for any and all claims, whether in contract, warranty, tort (excluding gross negligence or willful misconduct), product liability, or otherwise for any damages arising out of, connected with, or resulting from the performance or non-performance of any service or services provided hereunder shall not exceed [***].

 
7.2
In no event, whether as a result of a breach of contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), product liability, patent infringement, or otherwise, will either Party be liable to the other Party for any special, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary, or other indirect damages (including, without limitation, loss of use of data, loss of profit or loss of revenue or accreditation in connection with the Services).

8.
Excusable Delay

 
8.1
Excusable Delays.  Either party shall be excused from, and shall not be liable for, any delays in its performance or failure to perform hereunder, and shall not be deemed to be in default for any delay in or failure of performance hereunder due to causes beyond its reasonable control.  Such causes shall be conclusively deemed to include, but not be limited to, [***].  In the event of any such delay, the time of performance shall be extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of the delay. No charge shall be made for Services that are not provided due to such excusable delay. It is understood and agreed that system outages and monthly maintenance outages, as described in Section 1.8, are not “delays” within the meaning of this Section 8.1.

8.2
Continuing Obligations.  Section 8.1 above shall not, however, relieve the parties from using their best commercial efforts to avoid or remove such causes of delay and continue performance with reasonable dispatch when such causes are removed.

9.
Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

 
9.1
Governing Law. The Agreement shall be interpreted and applied in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to its conflicts of laws rules.

 
9.2
The Parties agree to try to resolve any dispute relating to the performance or interpretation of this Agreement amicably within [***].  In the event that the Parties fail to reach such an amicable resolution, the Parties agree that the jurisdiction over and venue of any suit arising out of or relating to this Agreement will be exclusively in the federal court for the southern district of New York or the state court in the borough of Manhattan. The Parties hereby waive their right to jury trial.
