        3.02    Interest.    The Company hereby promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender for the period from and including the date of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full, at a rate per annum, for each Interest Period relating thereto, equal to the Eurodollar Rate for such Loan for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the

16


Company hereby promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender interest at the applicable Post-Default Rate on any principal of any Loan made by such Lender and on any other amount payable by the Company hereunder or under the Notes held by such Lender to or for account of such Lender, that shall not be paid in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration, by mandatory prepayment or otherwise), for the period from and including the due date thereof to but excluding the date the same is paid in full. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each Interest Period therefor and upon the payment or prepayment thereof (but only on the principal amount so paid or prepaid), except that interest payable at the Post-Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand. Promptly after the determination of any interest rate provided for herein or any change therein, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders to which such interest is payable and to the Company.

        Section 4.    Payments; Pro Rata Treatment; Computations; Etc.    

        4.01    Payments.    

        (a)   Except to the extent otherwise provided herein, all payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by any Obligor under this Agreement and the Notes, and, except to the extent otherwise provided therein, all payments to be made by the Obligors under any other Basic Document, shall be made in Dollars, in immediately available funds, without deduction, setoff or counterclaim, to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent's Account, not later than 1:00 p.m. New York time on the date on which such payment shall become due (each such payment made after such time on such due date to be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day).

        (b)   The Company shall, subject to Section 4.02 hereof, at the time of making each payment under this Agreement or any Note for account of any Lender, specify to the Administrative Agent (which shall so notify the intended recipient(s) thereof) the Loans or other amounts payable by the Company hereunder to which such payment is to be applied (and in the event that the Company fails to so specify, or if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may distribute such payment to the Lenders for application in such manner as it or the Majority Lenders, subject to Section 4.02 hereof, may determine to be appropriate).

        (c)   Each payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any Note for account of any Lender shall be paid by the Administrative Agent promptly to such Lender, in immediately available funds, for account of such Lender's Lending Office for the Loan or other obligation in respect of which such payment is made.

        (d)   If the due date of any payment under this Agreement or any Note would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall be payable for any principal so extended for the period of such extension.

        4.02    Pro Rata Treatment.    Except to the extent otherwise provided herein: (a) each payment or prepayment (whether optional or mandatory) of principal of Loans by the Company shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of such Loans held by them; and (b) each payment of interest on Loans by the Company shall be made for account of the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Loans then due and payable to the respective Lenders.

        4.03    Computations.    Interest on Loans and commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which payable.

        4.04    Minimum Amounts.    Except for mandatory prepayments made pursuant to Section 2.07 hereof, each partial prepayment of principal of Loans shall be in an aggregate amount at least equal to U.S.$5,000,000 or a larger multiple of U.S.$1,000,000.

17



        4.05    Certain Notices.    Notices by the Company to the Administrative Agent of optional prepayments of Loans shall be irrevocable and shall be effective only if received by the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. New York time on the third Business Day prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice of optional prepayment shall specify the amount (subject to Sections 4.02 and 4.04 hereof) of each Loan to be prepaid and the date of prepayment (which shall be a Business Day). The Administrative Agent shall promptly (and, if the Administrative Agent receives such notice by 10:00 a.m. on any Business Day, on the same Business Day) notify the Lenders of the contents of each such notice.

        4.06    Non-Receipt of Funds by the Administrative Agent.    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by the Company prior to the date on which the Company is to make payment to the Administrative Agent of a payment to the Administrative Agent for account of one or more of the Lenders hereunder (such payment being herein called the "Required Payment"), which notice shall be effective upon receipt, that the Company does not intend to make the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Required Payment has been made and may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make the amount thereof available to the intended recipient(s) on such date; and, if the Company has not in fact made the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, the recipient(s) of such payment shall, on demand, repay to the Administrative Agent the amount so made available together with interest thereon in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date (the "Advance Date") such amount was so made available by the Administrative Agent until the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate for such day and, if such recipient(s) shall fail promptly to make such payment, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount, on demand, from the Company, together with interest as aforesaid, provided that if neither the recipient(s) nor the Company shall return the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent within three Business Days of the Advance Date, then, retroactively to the Advance Date, the Company and the recipient(s) shall each be obligated to pay interest on the Required Payment. If the Required Payment shall represent a payment to be made by the Company to the Lenders, the Company and the recipient(s) shall each be obligated retroactively to the Advance Date to pay interest in respect of the Required Payment at the Post Default Rate (and, in case the recipient(s) shall return the Required Payment to the Administrative Agent, without limiting the obligation of the Company under Section 3.02 hereof to pay interest to such recipient(s) at the Post Default Rate in respect of the Required Payment).

        4.07    Sharing of Payments, Etc.    

        (a)   The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim a Lender and its Affiliates may otherwise have, each Lender and its Affiliates shall be entitled, at its option, to offset balances held by it (including any deposits, whether general or special, time or demand, or provisional or final, and including certificates of deposit) for account of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, or other Indebtedness of such Lender held by the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, at any of its offices, in Dollars or in any other currency, against any principal of or interest on any of such Lender's Loans, to the extent due and payable, or any other amount then due and payable to such Lender hereunder (regardless of whether such balances are then due to the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor), in which case it shall promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent thereof, provided that such Lender's failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof.

        (b)   If any Lender shall obtain from any Obligor payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan owing to it or payment of any other amount under this Agreement or any other Basic Document through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker's lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from the Administrative Agent as provided herein), and, as a result of such payment, such Lender shall have received a greater percentage of the principal of or interest on the Loans or such

18



other amounts then due hereunder or thereunder by such Obligor to such Lender than the percentage received by any other Lender, it shall promptly purchase from such other Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to such other Lenders (or in interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses that may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such excess payment) pro rata in accordance with the unpaid principal of and/or interest on the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to each of the Lenders. To such end all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.

        (c)   The Company agrees that any Lender so purchasing such a participation (or direct interest) may exercise all rights of setoff, banker's lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to such Lender in the amount of such participation.

        (d)   Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other Indebtedness or obligation of any Obligor. If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 4.07 applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lender entitled under this Section 4.07 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

        Section 5.    Yield Protection, Etc.    

        5.01    Additional Costs.    

        (a)   The Company shall pay directly to each Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may reasonably determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs that such Lender determines are attributable to its maintaining of any Loans, or any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender hereunder in respect of any Loans or such obligation (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called "Additional Costs"), resulting from any Regulatory Change that:

            (i)    shall subject any Lender (or its Lending Office or the bank holding company of which it is a subsidiary) to any tax, duty or other charge in respect of such Loans or its Notes or changes the basis of taxation of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement or its Notes in respect of Loans (excluding changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender or of such Lending Office by the jurisdiction in which such Lender has its principal office or such Lending Office or such bank holding company); or

            (ii)   imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Lender (including, without limitation, any of such Loans or any deposits referred to in the definition of "Eurodollar Rate" in Section 1.01 hereof), or any commitment of such Lender.

        (b)   Without limiting the effect of the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.01 (but without duplication), the Company shall pay directly to each Lender from time to time on request such amounts as such Lender may reasonably determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender (or, without duplication, the bank holding company of which such Lender is a subsidiary) for any costs that it determines are attributable to the maintenance by such Lender (or any Lending Office or such bank holding company), pursuant to any law or regulation or any interpretation, directive or request (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) of any court or governmental or monetary authority (i) following any Regulatory Change or

19


(ii) implementing any riskbased capital guideline or other requirement (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not the failure to comply therewith would be unlawful) heretofore or hereafter issued by any government or governmental or supervisory authority implementing at the national level the Basle Accord, of capital in respect of its Loans (such compensation to include, without limitation, an amount equal to any reduction of the rate of return on assets or equity of such Lender (or any Lending Office or such bank holding company) to a level below that which such Lender (or any Lending Office or such bank holding company) could have achieved but for such law, regulation, interpretation, directive or request). For purposes of this Section 5.01(b), "Basle Accord" shall mean the proposals for riskbased capital framework described by the Basle Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices in its paper entitled "International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards" dated July 1988, as amended, modified and supplemented and in effect from time to time or any replacement thereof.

        (c)   Each Lender shall notify the Company of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement entitling such Lender to compensation under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5.01 as promptly as practicable, but in any event within 45 days, after such Lender obtains actual knowledge thereof; provided that (i) if any Lender fails to give such notice within 45 days after it obtains actual knowledge of such an event, such Lender shall, with respect to compensation payable pursuant to this Section 5.01 in respect of any costs resulting from such event, only be entitled to payment under this Section 5.01 for costs incurred from and after the date 45 days prior to the date that such Lender does give such notice, (ii) no Lender shall be entitled to compensation under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5.01 for any period in excess of 120 days prior to the date of notice from such Lender to the Company (irrespective of the date on which such Lender had actual knowledge of the event giving rise to the request for compensation), (iii) any such Lender shall be entitled to compensation under paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 5.01 only if such Lender is requesting similar compensation from other borrowers similarly situated, and (iv) each Lender will designate a different Lending Office for the Loans of such Lender if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole opinion of such Lender, be disadvantageous to such Lender, except that such Lender shall have no obligation to designate a Lending Office located in the United States of America. Each Lender will furnish to the Company a certificate setting forth the basis and amount of each request by such Lender for compensation under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5.01. Determinations and allocations by any Lender for purposes of this Section 5.01 of the effect of any Regulatory Change pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5.01, or of the effect of capital maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 5.01, on its costs or rate of return of maintaining Loans or on amounts receivable by it in respect of Loans, and of the amounts required to compensate such Lender under this Section 5.01, shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations and allocations are made on a reasonable basis.

        (d)   Provided that no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company may, at any time, replace any Lender (x) as to which the Company is obligated to make payments under this Section 5.01 (unless such Lender has since changed its Lending Office so as to eliminate the obligation of the Company to make such payments), or (y) which has given the Company the notice contemplated by Section 5.03 hereof, by giving not less than ten Business Days' prior notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify such Lender), that it intends to replace such Lender with one or more lenders (including but not limited to one or more Lenders under this Agreement) selected by the Company that (i) have agreed to replace such Lender as provided in this Section 5.01(d), (ii) are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (iii) enter into an assignment agreement with such Lender (in form reasonably acceptable to such Lender). Upon the effective date of any replacement under this paragraph and as a condition to such replacement, the replacement lender or lenders shall pay to the Lender being replaced the principal of the Loans held by such Lender and the Company shall pay to such Lender all accrued interest on such Loans and all other amounts owing to such Lender hereunder (including any amounts payable under Section 5.05 hereof as if such Loans

20



were being prepaid by the Company) whereupon each such replacement lender (if not already a Lender) shall become a "Lender" for all purposes of this Agreement. Each Lender agrees to execute and deliver such instruments, and take such other actions, as may be required by the Central Bank of Chile in order to effect the replacement of such Lender pursuant to this Section 5.01(d).

        5.02    Alternative Interest Rate.    Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of any Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period or Default Interest Period:

            (a)   the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (so long as the Administrative Agent is making substantially the same determination with respect to other borrowers (situated similarly to the Company) to which it has made loans), which determination shall be conclusive, that interest rate reported for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of "Eurodollar Rate" in Section 1.01 hereof are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for Loans as provided herein; or

            (b)   the Majority Lenders reasonably determine (so long as they are making substantially the same determination with respect to other borrowers (situated similarly to the Company) to which they respectively have made loans), which determination shall be conclusive, and notify the Administrative Agent that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of "Eurodollar Rate" in Section 1.01 hereof upon the basis of which the rate of interest for Loans for such Interest Period or Default Interest Period is to be determined are not likely to adequately cover the cost to such Lenders of maintaining Loans for such Interest Period or Default Interest Period;

    then the Administrative Agent shall give the Company and each Lender prompt notice thereof and:

            (i)    During the 15-day period next succeeding the date of any such notice (the "Negotiation Period"), the Administrative Agent (in consultation with such Lenders) and the Company will negotiate in good faith for the purpose of agreeing upon an alternative, mutually acceptable basis (the "Substitute Basis") for determining the rate of interest to be applicable to the Loans for such Interest Period or Default Interest Period;

            (ii)   If at the expiry of the Negotiation Period, the Majority Lenders and the Company have agreed upon a Substitute Basis and the Administrative Agent has received confirmation from its Chilean counsel that such Substitute Basis has received all necessary governmental approvals and consents, the Substitute Basis shall be retroactive to, and take effect from, the beginning of such Interest Period or Default Interest Period;

            (iii)  If at the expiry of the Negotiation Period, a Substitute Basis shall not have been agreed upon as aforesaid or the Administrative Agent shall not have received the above mentioned confirmation as to requisite governmental approvals or consents, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith notify each Lender of such failure to agree to receive such confirmation and, within five Business Days after receipt of such notice (or as soon thereafter as may be practicable), each such Lender shall notify the Company (through the Administrative Agent) of the cost to such Lender (as determined by it in good faith and on commercially reasonable terms) of funding and maintaining such Loan for such Interest Period or Default Interest Period (which shall be substantially the same cost that such Lender quotes to other borrowers (similarly situated to the Company in similar situations) to which it has made loans); and the interest payable to such Lender on such Loan for such Interest Period shall be interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin above the cost to such Lender of funding and maintaining such Loan for such Interest Period or Default Interest Period as so notified by such Lender (or, as to any principal of such Loan or other amount payable to such Lender on or in respect of such Loan which is then past due, 3% plus the Applicable Margin above such cost); and

21



            (iv)  The procedures specified in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above shall apply to each Interest Period or Default Interest Period succeeding the first Interest Period or Default Interest Period to which they were applied unless and until the Administrative Agent shall determine in consultation with the Majority Lenders that the conditions referred to in clause (a) or clause (b) above no longer exist and so notifies the Company and the Lenders, whereupon interest on such Loans shall again be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.02 hereof commencing on the first day of the Interest Period or Default Interest Period next succeeding the date of such notice.

        5.03    Illegality.    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that it becomes unlawful for any Lender or its Lending Office to honor its obligation to maintain any of its Loans hereunder (and, in the reasonable opinion of such Lender, the designation of a different Lending Office would either not avoid such unlawfulness or would be disadvantageous to the Lender), then such Lender shall promptly notify the Company thereof (through the Administrative Agent) and such Lender's obligation to maintain Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again maintain Loans and, if any of such Lender's Loans are then outstanding, the Company shall, upon the request of such Lender, promptly prepay the principal of such Loans together with accrued interest thereon.

        5.04    Chilean Taxes.    

        (a)   All payments on account of the principal of and interest on the Loans, fees and all other amounts payable hereunder by the Obligors to or for the account of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including, without limitation, amounts payable under clause (b) of this Section 5.04, shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or liability for Chilean Taxes. The Obligors will pay all Chilean Taxes for their own respective accounts, prior to the date on which penalties attach thereto, except for any Chilean Taxes (other than Chilean Taxes imposed on or in respect of any amount payable hereunder, under the Notes or under any other Basic Document) the payment of which is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings and against which adequate reserves are being maintained, so long as no claim for such Chilean Taxes is made on the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

        (b)   Each of the Obligors shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender against, and reimburse the Administrative Agent and each Lender on demand for, any Chilean Taxes and any loss, liability, claim or expense, including interest, penalties and legal fees, which the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as the case may be) may incur at any time arising out of or in connection with any failure of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to make any payment of Chilean Taxes when due.

        (c)   In the event that any Obligor is required by applicable law, decree or regulation to deduct or withhold Chilean Taxes from any amounts payable on, under or in respect of this Agreement or the Loans (including, without limitation, the Chilean income taxes referred to in clause (e) of this Section 5.04), such Obligor shall promptly pay the Person entitled to such amount such additional amounts as may be required, after the deduction or withholding of Chilean Taxes to enable such Person to receive from such Obligor, on the due date thereof, an amount equal to the full amount stated to be payable to such Person under this Agreement.

        (d)   Each Obligor shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, upon the request of any Lender (through the Administrative Agent), together with sufficient certified copies for distribution to each Lender requesting the same original official tax receipts in respect of each payment of Chilean Taxes required under this Section 5.04, within 30 days after the date such payment is made, and the Obligors shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent at its request or at the request of any Lender (through the Administrative Agent) any other information, documents and receipts that the Administrative Agent or such Lender may reasonably require to establish to its satisfaction that full and timely payment has been made of all Chilean Taxes required to be paid under this Section 5.04.

22



        (e)   Each Obligor represents and warrants to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent that, on and as of the date of this Agreement, none of this Agreement, any other Basic Document, or the execution or delivery by any Obligor of this Agreement or any other Basic Document, is subject to any Chilean Taxes, and no payment to be made by any Obligor under this Agreement is subject to any Chilean Taxes, except for Chilean income taxes at the rate of 4% on interest payable by the Company hereunder, certain other Chilean income taxes of up to a rate of 35% on amounts payable by the Company hereunder (other than interest on and principal of the Loans) and, if applicable, Chilean stamp taxes at the rate of 1.2% on the amount of each Loan, in each case required to be withheld and paid by the Company.

        5.05    Compensation.    The Company shall pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through the Administrative Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Lender) to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense that such Lender reasonably determines is attributable to:

            (a)   any payment or mandatory or optional prepayment of a Loan made by such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, the acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 10 hereof) on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan; or

            (b)   any failure by the Company for any reason to prepay a Loan from such Lender on the date specified in the relevant notice of prepayment given pursuant to Section 2.06 hereof.

Without limiting the effect of the preceding sentence, such compensation shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that otherwise would have accrued on the principal amount so paid, prepaid, or not borrowed (other than the portion thereof that represents the Applicable Margin) for the period from the date of such payment, prepayment, or failure to borrow to the last day of the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period for such Loan that would have commenced on the date specified for such borrowing) at the applicable rate of interest for such Loan provided for herein over (ii) the amount of interest that otherwise would have accrued on such principal amount at a rate per annum equal to the interest component of the amount such Lender would have bid in the London interbank market for Dollar deposits of leading banks in amounts comparable to such principal amount and with maturities comparable to such period (as reasonably determined by such Lender).

        Section 6.    Guarantee.    

        6.01    The Guarantee.    The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby irrevocably jointly and severally guarantee to each Lender and the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the principal of and interest on the Loans made by the Lenders to, and the Notes held by each Lender of, the Company and all other amounts from time to time owing to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent by the Company under this Agreement and under the Notes and by any Obligor under any of the other Basic Documents, in each case strictly in accordance with the terms thereof (and giving effect to any amendment or modification of such terms) (such obligations being herein collectively called the "Guaranteed Obligations"). The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby further jointly and severally agree that if the Company shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the Subsidiary Guarantors will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal.

        6.02    Obligations Unconditional.    The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under Section 6.01 hereof are absolute and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity,

23



regularity or enforceability of the obligations of the Company under this Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 6.02 that the obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional, joint and several, under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of the Subsidiary Guarantors hereunder which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

            (i)    at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Subsidiary Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

            (ii)   any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

            (iii)  the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified, supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right under this Agreement or the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

            (iv)  any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or Lenders as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected; or

            (v)   any law regulation or order of any jurisdiction, or any other event, affecting any term of any Guaranteed Obligation or the Administrative Agent's or any Lender's rights with respect thereto, including, without limitation: (A) the application of any such law, regulation, decree or order, including any prior approval, which would prevent the exchange of a currency or the remittance of funds outside of such jurisdiction or the unavailability of Dollars in any legal exchange market in such jurisdiction in accordance with normal commercial practice; or (B) a declaration of banking moratorium or any suspension of payments by banks in such jurisdiction or the imposition by such jurisdiction or any governmental authority thereof of any moratorium on, the required rescheduling or restructuring of, or required approval of payments on, any indebtedness in such jurisdiction; or (C) any expropriation, confiscation, nationalization or requisition by such country or any governmental authority that directly or indirectly deprives the companies in such jurisdiction of any payment obligation under any Guaranteed Obligations; or (D) any war (whether or not declared), insurrection, revolution, hostile act, civil strife or similar events occurring in such jurisdiction which has the same effect as the events described in clause (A), (B) or (C) above (in each of the cases contemplated in clauses (A) through (D) above, to the extent occurring or existing on or at any time after the date of this Agreement).

        The Subsidiary Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Company under this Agreement or the Notes or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

        6.03    Reinstatement.    The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Section 6 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Company in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or

Any amount paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of any such subrogation rights prior to the payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and each holder of a Note and, forthwith upon receipt by any Subsidiary Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by such Subsidiary Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required) and credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

        6.05    Remedies.    The Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally agree that, as between the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of the Company under this Agreement and the Notes may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 10 hereof (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in said Section 10) for purposes of Section 6.01 hereof notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Company and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Company) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Subsidiary Guarantors for purposes of said Section 6.01.

The payment obligation of a Subsidiary Guarantor to any Excess Funding Subsidiary Guarantor under this Section 6.07 shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the other provisions of this Section 6 and such Excess Funding Subsidiary Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such obligations.

If any Subsidiary becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder subsequent to the Closing Date, then for purposes of this Section 6.07 such subsequent Subsidiary Guarantor shall be deemed to have been a Subsidiary Guarantor as of the Closing Date and the aggregate present fair saleable value of the Properties, and the amount of the debts and liabilities, of such Subsidiary Guarantor as of the Closing Date shall be deemed to be equal to such value and amount on the date such Subsidiary Guarantor becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

        6.08    General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations.    In any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state or Federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor under Section 6.01 hereof would otherwise, taking into account the provisions of Section 6.07 hereof, be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under said Section 6.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such Subsidiary Guarantor, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

Such intercreditor agreement shall provide that any realization with respect to any of the Collateral shall require a vote of the Lenders, any QLF Lenders and Hedge Agreement counterparties, representing at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the loans, notes or bonds (and in the case of Hedge Agreement counterparties, the amount of the applicable termination payment) held by them.

        (d)   Further Assurances—The Company agrees that from time to time, at the expense of the Company, the Company will, and will cause each of the other Obligors to, promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action, that may be reasonably necessary or

42



desirable, or that the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and protect the assignments, security interests and Liens granted or purported to be granted under the Basic Documents or to enable the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies under this Agreement or any other Basic Document with respect to any Collateral. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will, and will cause each of the other Obligors to:

            (i)    authorize such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, and such other instruments or notices, as may be reasonably necessary or desirable, or as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, in order to perfect and preserve the assignments, security interests and Liens granted or purported to be granted under the Basic Documents; and

            (ii)   furnish to the Administrative Agent, from time to time at the Administrative Agent's request, statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other reports in connection with the Collateral as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail.

With respect to the foregoing and the grant of the security interest under the Basic Documents, the Company and each of the other Obligors hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of the Company or any such Obligor where permitted by law.

        9.21    Qualified Local Financing.    Each of the Company, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders agrees as follows:

            (a)    Engagement of Chilean Rating Agency.    Within 15 days after the Closing Date, the Company will engage a Chilean Rating Agency for the purpose of rating senior secured debt obligations of the Company (any such rating by a Chilean Rating Agency, a "Debt Rating") in accordance with clause (b) below.

            (b)    Obtaining a Rating.    The Company will do each of the following:

              (i)    upon the earlier of the following (the "First Request Date"):

                (A)  the Company determining that is reasonably likely to obtain a Debt Rating of 'A-' or better, and promptly notifying the Administrative Agent, and

                (B)  the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders,

        the Company shall:

                (x)   use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a Debt Rating no later than 60 days after the First Request Date, and

                (y)   furnish to the Administrative Agent, no later than 65 days after the First Request Date, a written report stating whether a Debt Rating was obtained and, if such Debt Rating is less than 'A-', the reasons therefore (to the extent provided by the applicable Chilean Rating Agency);

              (ii)   in the event that the Company receives a Debt Rating that is lower than an 'A-' (or if the Company receives a Debt Rating of 'A-' or better that is subsequently downgraded to lower than 'A-'), then at the reasonable request of the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders from time to time thereafter (each, a "Subsequent Request"), the Company shall:

                (x)   use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a new Debt Rating by no later than 30 days after the date of such Subsequent Request (provided that the Company shall have no obligation to obtain more than one Debt Rating in any one fiscal quarter and, subject to clause (y) below, shall have no obligation to obtain a new Debt Rating unless

43


        the Company shall have prepared new financial statements that were not the basis for the immediately prior Debt Rating),

                (y)   if so requested by the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders, select a Chilean Rating Agency other than the one used in connection with the First Request Date, and

                (z)   furnish to the Administrative Agent, no later than 40 days after each Subsequent Request, a written report stating whether a Debt Rating was obtained and, if such Debt Rating is less than 'A-', the reasons therefore (to the extent provided by the applicable Chilean Rating Agency); and

              (iii)  promptly after any date (a "QLF Rating Date") on which the Company receives a Debt Rating of 'A-' or better, the Company will notify the Lenders of the receipt of such Debt Rating; and

              (iv)  for purposes of clauses (i) and (ii) above, "commercially reasonable efforts" shall include cooperating with the relevant Chilean Rating Agency as reasonably requested by such Chilean Rating Agency, and making members of its senior management available for meetings with such Chilean Rating Agency.

            (c)    Commencement of QLF Process.    The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to do each of the following:

              (i)    by no later than 60 days after each Commencement Date, obtain written proposals from prospective lead arrangers or underwriters (which lead arrangers or underwriters shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company) to structure a Qualified Local Financing, and furnish copies of the same to each of the Lenders (provided that the compensation terms are not required to be disclosed),

              (ii)   promptly after the receipt thereof, consult with the Administrative Agent and the Lenders about the respective terms and conditions of each such proposal,

              (iii)  promptly after such consultations, request that the Majority Lenders give their preliminary written approval to one or more such proposals that contain Acceptable Terms (and each Lender agrees to provide (or advise that it cannot provide such approval) no later than 14 days after receipt of the Company's written request therefor),

              (iv)  promptly after receipt of such preliminary approvals, request binding written commitments with respect to one or more of the proposals that have Acceptable Terms with respect to which the Majority Lenders have given preliminary approval,

              (v)   by no later than 90 days after the Commencement Date, obtain binding written commitments (subject to customary conditions) with respect to each proposal referred to in clause (iii) above (any such commitment that has Acceptable Terms, a "Commitment"),

              (vi)  promptly thereafter, notify the Lenders which Commitment the Company intends to accept (an "Accepted QLF");

              (vii) obtain from the Majority Lenders (or, if required by Section 12.05 hereof, all of the Lenders), any existing QLF Lenders, and the counterparties to any Hedge Agreement, (x) an irrevocable written consent to any modifications required by the lenders or investors that will participate in the Accepted QLF as a condition to the closing of such Accepted QLF, and (y) an intercreditor agreement contemplated by Section 9.20(c) hereof (collectively, the "Required Modifications"); and

              (viii) promptly after obtaining all Required Modifications, accept the Accepted QLF.

44



            (d)    Consummation of QLF.    If the Company shall have obtained a Commitment and the Required Modifications within 90 days of such Commencement Date (the date on which both such Commitment and such Required Modifications have been obtained is referred to as the "Relevant Date" for such Accepted QLF), then the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate such Accepted QLF by no later than 30 days after such Relevant Date (or, if the agent or underwriter with respect to such Accepted QLF shall recommend a longer period of time, such longer period of time).

            (e)    Increase in Applicable Margin.    If each of the following conditions are satisfied:

              (i)    the Company shall have defaulted in the performance of its obligations under this Section 9.21, and

              (ii)   no Market Change shall have occurred during the period commencing on the applicable Commencement Date and ending on the date 120 days thereafter (or such later date in accordance with the terms of Section 9.21(d) hereof),

    then, during the period commencing on the first date that the Company shall have defaulted in the performance of its obligations under this Section 9.21 (but not earlier than the applicable Relevant Date) and ending on the date of the consummation of a QLF, the "Applicable Margin" shall be increased to a rate per annum equal to the "Applicable Margin" as provided in Section 1.01 hereof plus 4.00%; provided that, if the Company shall have defaulted in the performance of its obligations under Section 9.21(a), (b) or (c) hereof and a Market Change shall occur during the period commencing on the date of such default and ending on the date 150 days after the QLF Rating Date or relevant QLF Rating Date Anniversary, as applicable (or such later date in accordance with the terms of Section 9.21(d) hereof), the "Applicable Margin" shall be reduced, effective as of the later of (i) the date of such Market Change and (ii) the applicable Relevant Date, to the rate provided for in Section 1.01 hereof.

            (f)    Amount of QLF.    Any QLF commenced by the Company shall be in the following amounts:

              (i)    with respect to the first Qualified Local Financing that is consummated, an aggregate principal amount at least equal to U.S.$60,000,000; and

              (ii)   with respect to each subsequent Qualified Local Financing, an aggregate principal amount at least equal to U.S.$30,000,000.

        9.22    Limitation on Amendments to QLF Documentation.    The Company will not consent to any modification, supplement or waiver of any of the provisions of the documentation for any QLF without the prior approval of the Administrative Agent, except any such modification, supplement or waiver that would not reasonably be expected to materially adversely effect the interests of the Lenders hereunder.

        Section 10.    Events of Default.    If one or more of the following events (herein called "Events of Default") shall occur and be continuing:

            (a)   The Company shall default in the payment when due (whether at stated maturity or at mandatory or optional prepayment) of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan or any other amount payable by it hereunder or under any other Basic Document; or

            (b)   Any Relevant Party shall default in the payment when due (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) of any principal of or interest on any of its other Indebtedness aggregating U.S.$5,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies) or more, or in the payment when due (beyond any applicable grace or cure period) of any amount under any Hedge Agreement aggregating U.S.$5,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies) or more; or any event specified

45



    in any note, agreement, indenture or other document evidencing or relating to any such Indebtedness aggregating U.S.$5,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies) or more, or any event specified in any Hedge Agreement aggregating U.S.$5,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies) or more shall occur if the effect of such event is to cause, or (after the expiration of any applicable cure period) to permit the holder or holders of such Indebtedness (or a trustee or agent on behalf of such holder or holders) to cause, such Indebtedness to become due, or to be prepaid in full (whether by redemption, purchase, offer to purchase or otherwise), prior to its stated maturity (except to the extent that, in the case of any Indebtedness representing the purchase price of equipment where there is a dispute between an Obligor and the vendor of such equipment, the holder of such Indebtedness has been indefinitely stayed from exercising any right or remedy with respect to such Indebtedness) or, in the case of an Hedge Agreement, to permit the payments owing under such Hedge Agreement to be liquidated; or

            (c)   Any representation, warranty or certification made or deemed made herein or in any other Basic Document (or in any modification or supplement hereto or thereto) by any Relevant Party, or any certificate furnished to any Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions hereof or thereof, shall prove to have been false or misleading as of the time made or furnished in any material respect; or

            (d)   The Company or any other Obligor shall default in the performance of any of its obligations under any of Sections 9.01(e), 9.05, 9.06, 9.07, 9.08, 9.09, 9.10, 9.11, 9.12, 9.13, 9.15 or 9.20 hereof; or any Relevant Party shall default in the performance of any of its other obligations in this Agreement or any other Basic Document (other than Section 9.21 hereof) and such default shall continue unremedied for a period of fourteen or more days after notice thereof to the Company by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (through the Administrative Agent); or

            (e)   The Company shall declare or make any Dividend Payment at any time; or

            (f)    Any Relevant Party shall admit in writing its inability to, or be generally unable to, pay its debts as such debts become due; or

            (g)   Any Relevant Party shall (i) apply for or consent to the appointment of, or the taking of possession by, a receiver, custodian, trustee, examiner or liquidator of itself or of all or a substantial part of its Property, (ii) make a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, (iii) commence a voluntary case under any applicable law relating to bankruptcy or insolvency, (iv) file a petition seeking to take advantage of any other law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution, arrangement or windingup, or composition or readjustment of debts (except as expressly contemplated by and pursuant to Section 9.05 hereof), (v) fail to controvert in a timely and appropriate manner, or acquiesce in writing to, any petition filed against it in an involuntary case under any applicable law relating to bankruptcy or insolvency or (vi) take any corporate action for the purpose of effecting any of the foregoing; or

            (h)   A proceeding or case shall be commenced, without the application or consent of the affected Relevant Party, in any court of competent jurisdiction, seeking (i) its reorganization, liquidation, dissolution, arrangement or windingup, or the composition or readjustment of its debts, (ii) the appointment of a receiver, custodian, trustee, examiner, liquidator or the like of such Relevant Party or of all or any substantial part of its Property, or (iii) similar relief in respect of such Relevant Party under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, windingup, or composition or adjustment of debts, and such proceeding or case shall continue undismissed, or a court order, judgment or decree approving or ordering any of the foregoing shall be entered and continue unstayed and in effect, for a period of 60 or more days (each Lender agreeing to respond within ten Business Days to any request by the Company for an extension of this grace period (without any obligation on the part of any Lender to so consent)); or a court order for relief

46



    against any Relevant Party shall be entered in an involuntary case under any applicable law relating to bankruptcy or insolvency; or

            (i)    (i) A final judgment or judgments for the payment of money for which the amount is in excess of U.S.$5,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies), exclusive of judgment amounts fully covered by insurance, or the amount is in excess of U.S.$20,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies), regardless of insurance coverage, in the aggregate shall be rendered by one or more courts, administrative tribunals or other bodies having jurisdiction against any Relevant Party and the same shall not be discharged (or provision shall not be made for such discharge), vacated, bonded or a stay of execution thereof shall not be procured, within 30 days from the date of entry thereof and such Relevant Party shall not, within said period of 30 days, or such longer period during which execution of the same shall have been stayed, appeal therefrom and cause the execution thereof to be stayed during such appeal; or (ii) any non-monetary judgment or order shall be rendered against the Company or any of the other Obligors that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and there shall be any period of 15 consecutive days during which a stay of enforcement of such judgment or order, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, shall not be in effect; or

            (j)    any of the following:

              (y)   any Person or two or more Persons acting in concert shall have entered into a contract or arrangement that, upon consummation, will result in one or more of the events described in clause (x) above (unless such contract or agreement is conditioned upon such transaction being permitted under this Agreement), or

            (k)   The Liens created by the Security Documents shall at any time not constitute a valid and perfected Lien on the Property intended to be covered thereby (other than any immaterial items of Property) in favor of the Lenders, free and clear of all other Liens (other than Liens permitted under Section 9.06 hereof), or, the Lenders shall cease to have a valid and perfected first priority Lien on 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of, or other equity interests in, any Obligor, or, except for expiration in accordance with its terms, any of the Basic Documents shall for whatever reason be terminated or cease to be in full force and effect, or the enforceability thereof shall be contested by any Relevant Party; or

            (l)    Any license, consent, authorization, registration or approval at any time necessary to enable any Relevant Party to comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Basic Document shall be revoked, withdrawn or withheld or shall be modified or amended, which revocation, withdrawal, withholding, modification or amendment could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or

            (m)  Any governmental authority shall take any action to condemn, seize, nationalize or appropriate any substantial portion of the Property of the Obligors (either with or without

            (o)   Any event, circumstance or condition shall have occurred that has had a Material Adverse Effect; provided that a default by the Company in the performance of its obligations under Section 9.21 shall be deemed to not have caused a Material Adverse Effect; or

            (p)   Any Obligor shall make any principal payment in respect of any of the Indebtedness described in Section 9.07(c) or 9.07(d) during the continuance of any Default in respect of Sections 9.11, 9.12 and 9.13 hereof; or

        Section 11.    The Administrative Agent.    

        11.01    Appointment, Powers and Immunities.    Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as its agent hereunder and under the other Basic Documents with such powers as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and of the other Basic Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent (which term as used in this sentence and in Section 11.05

48



and the first sentence of Section 11.06 hereof shall include reference to its affiliates and its own and its affiliates' officers, directors, employees and agents): (a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Basic Documents, and shall not by reason of this Agreement or any other Basic Document be a trustee for any Lender; (b) shall not be responsible to the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or in any other Basic Document, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Basic Document, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement, any Note or any other Basic Document or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by the Company or any other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder; (c) shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings hereunder or under any other Basic Document; and (d) shall not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Basic Document or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until a notice of the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.

        11.02    Reliance by Administrative Agent.    The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including, without limitation, any thereof by telephone, facsimile, telex, telegram or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any other Basic Document, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Majority Lenders or, if provided herein, in accordance with the instructions given by all of the Lenders and such instructions of such Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders.

        11.03    Defaults.    The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default unless the Administrative Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Company specifying such Default and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default". In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice of the occurrence of a Default, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 11.07 hereof) take such action with respect to such Default as shall be directed by the Majority Lenders provided that, unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Lenders except to the extent that this Agreement expressly requires that such action be taken, or not be taken, only with the consent or upon the authorization of the Majority Lenders or all of the Lenders.

        11.04    Rights as a Lender.    With respect to any Loan made by The Toronto-Dominion Bank or any of its affiliates, The Toronto-Dominion Bank or such affiliate (as the case may be) shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though TD were not acting as the Administrative Agent, and the term "Lender" or "Lenders" shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include The Toronto-Dominion Bank. The Toronto-Dominion Bank or such affiliates, as the case may be, may (without having to account therefor to any Lender) accept deposits from, lend money to, make investments in and generally engage in any kind of banking or other business with the Obligors (and any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates) as if TD were not acting as the Administrative Agent, and The Toronto-Dominion Bank and its affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from the Obligors for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

49


        11.05    Indemnification.    The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed under Section 12.03 hereof, but without limiting the obligations of the Company under said Section 12.03) ratably in accordance with the aggregate principal amount of the Loans held by the Lenders, for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (including by any Lender) arising out of or by reason of any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Basic Document or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including, without limitation, the costs and expenses that the Company is obligated to pay under Section 12.03 hereof but excluding, unless a Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent they arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified.

        11.06    Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.    Each Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of the Company and its Subsidiaries and decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or under any other Basic Document. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by any Obligor of this Agreement or any of the other Basic Documents or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the Properties or books of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under the Security Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or any of their affiliates) that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its affiliates.

        11.07    Failure to Act.    Except for action expressly required of the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Basic Documents, the Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from the Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 11.05 hereof against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

        11.08    Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent.    Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided below, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and the Company, and the Administrative Agent may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Majority Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent's giving of notice of resignation or the Majority Lenders' removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, that shall be a financial institution that has an office in New York, New York. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative

50



Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. After any retiring Administrative Agent's resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 11 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.

        11.09    Consents under Other Basic Documents.    Except as otherwise provided in Section 12.05 hereof with respect to this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may, with the prior consent of the Majority Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to any modification, supplement or waiver under any of the Basic Documents, provided that, without the prior consent of each Lender, the Administrative Agent shall not (except as provided herein or in the Security Documents) release any collateral or otherwise terminate any Lien under any Basic Document providing for collateral security, or agree to additional obligations being secured by such collateral security.

        Section 12.    Miscellaneous.    

        12.01    Waiver.    No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any Note shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Agreement or any Note preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted by facsimile or personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid.

        12.04    Indemnification.    The Company hereby agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective affiliates, directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents from, and hold each of them harmless against, any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by any of them (including, without limitation, any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent to any Lender, whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Lender is a party thereto) arising out of or by reason of any investigation or litigation or other proceedings (including any threatened investigation or litigation or other proceedings) relating to the Loans hereunder, any actual or proposed use by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of the proceeds of any of the Loans hereunder or any Environmental Laws or any Environmental Claim, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation or litigation or other proceedings (but excluding any such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified). Each of the Obligors agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any of their respective affiliates, or any of their, or their respective affiliates', respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys and agents, on any theory of liability for special, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to any of the transactions contemplated herein or in any other Basic Document.

        12.05    Amendments, Etc.    Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any provision of this Agreement may be modified or supplemented only by an instrument in writing signed by the Company and the Majority Lenders, or by the Company and the Administrative Agent acting with the consent of the Majority Lenders, and any provision of this Agreement may be waived by the Majority Lenders or by the Administrative Agent acting with the consent of the Majority Lenders; provided that:

            (a)   no modification, supplement or waiver shall, unless by an instrument signed by all of the Lenders or by the Administrative Agent acting with the consent of all of the Lenders: (i) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee hereunder, (ii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iii) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon (other than in connection with an increase in the interest rate pursuant to Section 9.21(e) hereof) or any fee is payable hereunder, (iv) alter the rights or obligations of the Company to prepay Loans, (v) alter the terms of Section 4.02 or this Section 12.05, (vi) modify the definition of the term "Majority Lenders" or the term "Required Lenders", or modify in any other manner the number or percentage of the Lenders required to make any determinations or waive any rights hereunder or to modify any provision hereof (including the requirement set forth in Section 11.09 hereof), or (vii) release any Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under Section 6 hereof;

            (b)   any modification or supplement of Section 11 hereof shall require the consent of the Administrative Agent; and

            (c)   any modification or supplement of Section 6 hereof shall require the consent of each Subsidiary Guarantor.

        12.06    Successors and Assigns.    This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

        12.07    Assignments and Participations.    

            (a)   No Obligor may assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder or under the Notes without the prior consent of all of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Central Bank of Chile.

52


            (b)   Each Lender may assign any of its Loans and its Notes to any Eligible Assignee (or during an Event of Default, any Person); provided that (i) any such partial assignment shall be in an amount at least equal to U.S.$3,000,000 (or, with respect to assignments among Lenders, U.S.$1,000,000); (ii) each such assignee Lender shall be a bank or registered as a financial institution with the Central Bank of Chile; and (iii) each such partial assignment by a Lender of any of its Loans and Notes shall be made in such manner so that the same portion of its Loans and Notes are assigned to the respective assignee. Upon execution and delivery by the assignee to the Company and the Administrative Agent of an instrument in writing pursuant to which such assignee agrees to become a "Lender" hereunder (if not already a Lender) having the Loan specified in such instrument, and the assignee shall have, to the extent of such assignment (unless otherwise provided in such assignment with the consent of the Company and the Administrative Agent, such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the obligations, rights and benefits of a Lender hereunder holding the Loan (or portions thereof) assigned to it (in addition to the Loan, if any, theretofore held by such assignee) and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment, be released from the Loan (or portion thereof) so assigned, but shall be entitled to indemnification and other rights under this Agreement and the other Basic Documents with respect to the period prior to the date of such assignment. Upon each such assignment the assigning Lender shall pay the Administrative Agent an assignment fee of U.S.$3,500. The Company agrees to cause any assignment made pursuant to this Section 12.07(b) to be notified to the Central Bank of Chile pursuant to, and in accordance with, the applicable provisions of Chapter XIV of the Foreign Exchange Rules of the Central Bank of Chile.

            (c)   A Lender may sell or agree to sell to one or more other Persons a participation in all or any part of any Loan held by it, in which event each purchaser of a participation (a "Participant") shall be entitled to the rights and benefits of the provisions of Section 9.03(f) hereof with respect to its participation in such Loan as if (and the Company shall be directly obligated to such Participant under such provisions as if) such Participant were a "Lender" for purposes of said Section, but, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.07(c) hereof with respect to participations purchased pursuant to Section 4.07 (b) hereof, shall not have any other rights or benefits under this Agreement or any Note or any other Basic Document (the Participant's rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreements executed by such Lender in favor of the Participant). All amounts payable by the Company to any Lender under Section 5 hereof in respect of any Loan held by it, shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold or agreed to sell any participations in such Loan, and as if such Lender were funding each of such Loan in the same way that it is funding the portion of such Loan in which no participations have been sold. In no event shall a Lender that sells a participation agree with the Participant to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder or under any other Basic Document except that such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the Loan or any portion of any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, (ii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iii) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon, or any fee hereunder payable to the Participant, to a level below the rate at which the Participant is entitled to receive such interest or fee, (iv) alter the rights or obligations of the Company to prepay the Loans or (v) consent to any modification, supplement or waiver hereof or of any of the other Basic Documents to the extent that the same, under Section 11.09 or 12.05 hereof, requires the consent of each Lender.

            (d)   Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (including any other provision regarding assignments, participations, transfers or novations), any Lender (a "Granting Lender") may, without the consent of any other party hereto, grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (whether a corporation, partnership, limited liability company, trust or otherwise, an "SPV") sponsored or managed by the Granting Lender or any affiliate thereof identified to

53



    Borrower as such, a participation in all or any part of any existing or future advances hereunder that such Granting Lender has made or will make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) such Granting Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Granting Lender shall remain the holder of the Notes for all purposes under this Agreement and (iii) the Company, Administrative Agent and other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Granting Lender in connection with such Granting Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement.

            (e)   Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) no SPV will be entitled to any rights or benefits that a Participant would not otherwise be entitled to under this Agreement and (ii) an SPV may assign its interest in any existing or future advances hereunder to any entity that would constitute a Participant. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any state thereof, other than as a holder of a security or other debt instrument of such SPV.

            (f)    Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Granting Lender and any SPV may, without the consent of any other party hereto, and without limiting any other rights of disclosure of the Granting Lender under this Agreement, disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of advances to (i) (in the case of the Granting Lender) any actual or prospective SPV in accordance with Section 12.17(vi) hereof, (ii) (in the case of an SPV) its lenders, sureties, reinsurers, guarantors or credit liquidity enhancers, and their respective directors, officers, and advisors and (iii) any rating agency. This section may not be amended without the written consent of Borrower and each Lender.

            (g)   In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.07, any Lender may (without notice to the Company, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and without payment of any fee) (i) assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loan and its Note to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, and (ii) assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and its Loan and its Note to an affiliate, so long as such assignee is a bank or a foreign financial institution considered as such for purposes of Article 59 No 1 of the income tax law of Chile. No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder, provided that each such assignment by a Lender of its loan shall have the prior authorization of the Central Bank of Chile.

            (h)   A Lender may furnish any information concerning the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants), provided that such assignee or participant shall have agreed, pursuant to its customary confidentiality agreement, to keep such information confidential.

            (i)    Anything in this Section 12.07 to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to the Company or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the prior consent of each Lender.

        12.08    Survival.    The obligations of the Company under Sections 5.01, 5.04, 5.05, 12.03 and 12.04 hereof, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor under Sections 6.03 and 6.04 hereof, the obligations of the Lenders under Section 11.05 hereof, and the provisions of Sections 12.11, 12.12, 12.13, 12.14 and 12.15 shall survive the repayment of the Loans. In addition, each representation and warranty made, or deemed to be made by a notice of any Loan, herein or pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty, and no Lender shall be deemed to have waived, by

54


reason of having made any Loan, any Default that may arise by reason of such representation or warranty proving to have been false or misleading, notwithstanding that such Lender or the Administrative Agent may have had notice or knowledge or reason to believe that such representation or warranty was false or misleading at the time such Loan was made.

        12.09    Captions; Integration.    The table of contents and captions and section headings appearing herein are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement, the Notes and the other Basic Documents constitute the entire understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede any agreements, written or oral, with respect thereto, entered into prior to the date of this Agreement.

        12.10    Counterparts.    This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument and any of the parties hereto may execute this Agreement by signing any such counterpart.

        12.11    Judgment Currency.    This is an international loan transaction in which the specification of Dollars and payment in New York City is of the essence, and the obligations of the Obligors under this Agreement to make payment to (or for the account of) a Lender in Dollars shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender or recovery pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any other currency or in another place except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by such Lender in New York City of the full amount of Dollars payable to such Lender under this Agreement. If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency (in this Section 12.11 called the "judgment currency"), the rate of exchange that shall be applied shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase such Dollars at its New York City office with the judgment currency on the Business Day next preceding the day on which such judgment is rendered. The obligation of the Obligors in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any Basic Document (in this Section 12.11 called an "Entitled Person") shall, notwithstanding the rate of exchange actually applied in rendering such judgment, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Entitled Person of any sum adjudged to be due hereunder in the judgment currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase and transfer Dollars to New York City with the amount of the judgment currency so adjudged to be due; and each of the Obligors hereby, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, agrees to indemnify such Entitled Person against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand, in Dollars, the amount (if any) by which the sum originally due to such Entitled Person in Dollars hereunder exceeds the amount of the Dollars so purchased and transferred.

        12.12    Governing Law.    This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York, United States of America.

        12.13    Jurisdiction; Service of Process; Venue.    

        (a)   Each Obligor hereby agrees that any suit, action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, any Note, any other Basic Document (other than the Security Documents) or any judgment entered by any court in respect of any thereof may be brought in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, as the party commencing such suit, action or proceeding may elect in its sole discretion; and each Obligor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of any suit, action, proceeding or judgment. Each Obligor hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for the purpose of any such suit, action, proceedings or judgment brought against it (including any suit, action, proceedings or judgment relating to any of the Security Documents), to any ordinary court of justice of the City and Comuna of Santiago, Chile. Each Obligor

55



agrees that final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by law suit on the judgment or in any other manner permitted by law.

        (b)   Each Obligor hereby agrees that service of all writs, process and summonses in any such suit, action or proceeding brought in the State of New York may be made upon CT Corporation, presently located at 1633 Broadway, New York, New York 10019, U.S.A. (the "Process Agent"), and each Obligor hereby confirms and agrees that the Process Agent has been duly and irrevocably appointed as its agent and true and lawful attorney-in-fact in its name, place and stead to accept such service of any and all such writs, process and summonses, and agrees that the failure of the Process Agent to give any notice of any such service of process to such Obligor shall not impair or affect the validity of such service or of any judgment based thereon. Each Obligor hereby further irrevocably consents to the service of process in any suit, action or proceeding in said courts by the mailing thereof by the Administrative Agent or any Lender by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, at its address set forth beneath its signature hereto.

        (c)   Nothing herein shall in any way be deemed to limit the ability of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to serve any such writs, process or summonses in any other manner permitted by applicable law or to obtain jurisdiction over any Obligor in such other jurisdictions, and in such manner, as may be permitted by applicable law.

        (d)   Each Obligor hereby irrevocably waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Notes or any other Basic Document brought in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York or in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and hereby further irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

        (e)   Each Obligor irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any claim that any action or proceeding commenced by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relating in any way to this Agreement should be dismissed or stayed by reason, or pending the resolution, of any action or proceeding commenced by any Obligor relating in any way to this Agreement whether or not commenced earlier. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Obligors shall take all measures necessary for any such action or proceeding commenced by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to proceed to judgment prior to the entry of judgment in any such action or proceeding commenced by any Obligor.

        12.14    No Immunity.    To the extent that any Obligor may be or become entitled, in any jurisdiction in which judicial proceedings may at any time be commenced with respect to this Agreement or any other Basic Document, to claim for itself or its Property any immunity from set-off, suit, court jurisdiction, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of a judgment, execution of a judgment or from any other legal process or remedy relating to its obligations under this Agreement or any other Basic Document, and to the extent that in any such jurisdiction there may be attributed such an immunity (whether or not claimed), each of the Obligors hereby irrevocably agrees not to claim and hereby irrevocably waives such immunity to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdiction and agrees that the foregoing waiver shall have the fullest extent permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States of America and is intended to be irrevocable for purposes of such Act.

        12.15    Waiver of Jury Trial.    EACH OF THE OBLIGORS, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

56


        12.16    Use of English Language.    This Agreement has been negotiated and executed in the English language. All certificates, reports, notices and other documents and communications given or delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be in the English language, or accompanied by a certified English translation thereof. Except in the case of laws of, or official communications of, Chile, in the case of any document originally issued in a language other than English, the English language version of any such document shall for purposes of this Agreement, and absent manifest error, control the meaning of the matters set forth therein.

        12.17    Confidentiality.    Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agrees (on behalf of itself and each of its affiliates, directors, officers, employees and representatives) to use reasonable precautions to keep confidential, in accordance with their customary procedures for handling confidential information of the same nature and in accordance with safe and sound banking practices, any non-public information supplied to it by the Company pursuant to this Agreement that is identified by the Company in writing as being confidential at the time the same is delivered to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent (including, without limitation, the information included in Schedules I, II, III and IV hereto), provided that nothing herein shall limit the disclosure of any such information (i) to the extent required by statute, rule, regulation or judicial process, (ii) to counsel for any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, (iii) to bank examiners, auditors or accountants, (iv) to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (v) in connection with any litigation to which any one or more of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent is a party, (vi) to any assignee or participant (or prospective assignee or participant) so long as such assignee or participant (or prospective assignee or participant) first executes and delivers to the respective Lender a written confidentiality agreement or (vii) that has become generally available to the public, other than by a breach of this Section 12.17 by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, or that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, has received from a Person not party to this Agreement where the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, is not aware of such Person being under an obligation to keep such information confidential. Solely for the purposes of complying with Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011 - 4(b)(3)(iii), the Company, the Administrative Agent and each Lender (and each of their respective employees, representatives, or other agents) may disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the U.S. tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to any of them relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. However, any such information relating to the tax treatment or tax structure is required to be kept confidential to the extent necessary to comply with any applicable federal or state securities laws. For purposes of this Section "Treasury Regulations" shall mean the Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code. "Code" shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
