The Borrower may elect to prepay any of the Loans, on any date and from time to time, after giving by 12:00 p.m. (New York City, New York time) at least 10 Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of such prepayment. If any such notice is given, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in whole or ratably in part in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount specified in such notice, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.08 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date; provided, however, that each partial payment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $2,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, in the event a lesser amount remains outstanding, such lesser amount. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment.

(c) Illegality. If any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts, or a Lender determines in good faith, that it is unlawful for such Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to perform its obligations under this Agreement to make Loans or maintain any Loans of such Lender then outstanding hereunder, (i) to the extent such Lender’s Commitment has not been terminated, the right of the Borrower to request Loans for the relevant Borrowing from such Lender shall be suspended until such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and (ii) the Borrower, shall, if such Lender is not prohibited by law or regulation to maintain such Loans for the duration of the Interest Period, no later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City, New York time), on the last day of the Interest Period for each outstanding Loan, or if such Lender is prohibited by law or regulation to maintain such Loans for the duration of the Interest Period, within three (3) Business Days of its receipt of such notice, prepay all of the Loans of such Lender then outstanding, together with accrued interest on the principal amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.08 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date. Each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such designation would avoid the effect of this paragraph and would not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(d) Change of Control. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days of such Change of Control, prepay all of the Loans then outstanding, together with accrued interest on the principal amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.08 as a result of such

 

-22-


prepayment being made on such date; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to prepay the Loans pursuant to this Section 2.07(d) in the event that (i) prior to such Change of Control (x) each Lender has received all documentation and other information required under applicable “know your customer” requirements of each such Lender and (y) each Lender has received such other documents, governmental approvals, agreements, licenses and other information as the Administrative Agent or any Lender may reasonably request and (ii) immediately after giving effect to such Change of Control and at all times thereafter (x) the Borrower is the surviving entity and (y) Itaú Unibanco Holdings S.A. beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, voting securities of the Borrower (or other securities convertible into such voting securities) representing no less than (A) 33.58% of the combined voting power of all voting securities of the Borrower on a fully diluted basis or (B) such lesser percentage, provided that, in either case, Itaú Unibanco Holdings S.A. is the controlling shareholder (controlador) as defined under Article 97 of the Chilean Securities Market Law (Law No. 18045, as amended by Law No. 20448, dated August 13, 2010) (any Change of Control meeting the requirements of subsections (i) and (ii), a “Permitted Change of Control”).

(e) Ratable Payments; Effect of Notice; No Reborrowing. Each payment of any Loan pursuant to this Section 2.07 or any other provision of this Agreement, except for prepayments pursuant to Section 2.07(c) or other amounts payable solely to the Administrative Agent or a specific Lender pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.08, 2.09, 2.12, or 9.08, shall be made in a manner such that all Loans are paid in whole or ratably in part. All notices given pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower. Loans, once prepaid or repaid, may not be reborrowed.

Section 2.08. Breakage Costs.

(a) Funding Losses. The Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, out-of-pocket cost, or expense incurred by such Lender, and shall pay to such Lender any amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the opinion of such Lender) to compensate such Lender for any loss, cost or expense, as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in the Notice of Effectiveness or the Notice of Borrowing, as applicable, the conditions set forth in Section 3.01 and 3.02, respectively, including, without limitation, any loss, cost, or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to make the payments required to be made under the Master Assignment, Assumption and Waiver Agreement or to fund the Loan to be made by such Lender as part of the Borrowing when such payment or Loan, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

(b) Prepayment Losses. If (i) any payment of principal of any Loan is made other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan as a result of any prepayment or payment pursuant to Section 2.07, the acceleration of the maturity of the Loans, or for any other reason or (ii) the Borrower fails to make a principal or interest payment with respect to any Loan on the date such payment is due and payable (including, without limitation, pursuant to a notice of prepayment pursuant to Section 2.07), the Borrower shall, within ten (10) days of any written demand sent by any Lender to the Borrower, pay to such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, out-of-pocket costs, or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or nonpayment, including, without limitation, any loss, cost, or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Loan.

Section 2.09. Increased Costs and Capital Adequacy.

(a) Increased Costs. If any change in law, rule, regulation or treaty, or in its interpretation or administration, or compliance with any law or request from or requirement of any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other Governmental Authority (including, without limitation, a request or requirement which affects the manner in which a Lender or any holding company of such Lender is required to or does maintain capital resources relating to such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and to amounts owing to it under this Agreement):

(i) subjects a Lender to any tax, duty or other charge (other than a FATCA Deduction required to be made by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) with respect to any Loans or its obligation to make Loans, or changes the basis on which any of the foregoing is imposed on any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement in respect of any Loans;

(ii) shall impose or modify any reserve, special deposit, or similar requirement relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities or commitments of, such Lender (including its Commitments); or

(iii) shall impose on a Lender or on the offshore Eurodollar interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or any of such extensions of credit or liabilities or commitments;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loans or Commitments or to reduce any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement with respect to any Loans, then from time to time within five (5) Business Days of receipt of written demand of such Lender (with a copy of such demand to Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for the increased cost or reduction in rate of return caused by such change in law, interpretation, or administration or by compliance with such request or requirement; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.09(a) for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the occurrence of an event described in this Section 2.09(a) giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the event giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof). For the avoidance of doubt, (i) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or by United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, and (ii) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof and, in each case, any compliance by a Lender with any request or directive relating thereto shall, for purposes of this Section 2.09, be deemed to be a change in law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

 

-24-


(b) Capital Adequacy. If any (i) change in law or in its interpretation or administration or (ii) compliance with any law or request from or requirement of any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other Governmental Authority (including, without limitation, a request or requirement which affects the manner in which a Lender or any holding company of such Lender is required to or does maintain capital resources relating to such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement and to amounts owing to it under this Agreement) shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of a Lender or the holding company of any such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital), then from time to time within five (5) Business Days of receipt of written demand of such Lender (with a copy to Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.09(b) for any reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the occurrence of an event described in this Section 2.09(b) giving rise to such reductions, and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the event giving rise to such reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(c) Mitigation. Each Lender shall promptly (but in any event within 90 days after the occurrence of the event giving rise to such right to compensation) notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge that will entitle such Lender to compensation pursuant to this Section 2.09, and will use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to it. Any Lender claiming compensation under this Section 2.09 shall furnish to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a copy of the applicable law, rule, regulation or directive and a statement setting forth the additional amount to be paid to it hereunder, which additional amount shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(d) Right to Replace. The Borrower shall have the right to replace each Lender affected by a condition under Sections 2.09(a) or (b) for more than 30 days from the date such Lender was affected by such condition (each such affected Lender, an “Affected Lender”) with an Eligible Assignee designated by the Borrower or by the Administrative Agent with the Borrower’s consent. Any replacement of a Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall be (i) made by the Eligible Assignee’s and the Affected Lender’s entering into an Assignment and Acceptance and by following the procedures in Section 9.07 for adding a Lender; (ii) shall close within ten (10) days after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a notice of election to replace such Affected Lender from the Borrower; and (iii) shall only be made upon the Affected Lender’s being paid in full all principal, interest, and other amounts owed to it (including, without limitation, pursuant to Sections 2.08, 2.09(a) or (b), 2.12 or 9.08) as of the effective date of the replacement.

Section 2.10. Alternate Interest Rate. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to any Interest Determination Date:

(a) the Administrative Agent reasonably determines that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBOR” in Section 1.01 are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest on such Interest Determination Date as provided herein; or

(b) the Administrative Agent receives a Market Disruption Event Notice from the Lenders constituting the Majority Lenders (any of the events set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 2.10, hereinafter a “Market Disruption Event”);

then the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower thereof within three (3) Business Days of the occurrence of such Market Disruption Event and the following provisions shall apply:

(i) During the thirty-day period following the date of any such notice (the “Negotiation Period”), the Lenders and the Borrower 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, and any other amounts hereunder not paid when due, from time to time and if, at the expiry of the Negotiation Period, the Lenders and the Borrower have agreed upon a Substitute Basis and any required governmental approvals therefor have been obtained, the Substitute Basis shall take effect from such date (including such retroactive date) as the Lenders and the Borrower may in such circumstance agree.

(ii) If, at the expiry of the Negotiation Period, a Substitute Basis shall not have been agreed upon or any required governmental approvals therefor shall not have been obtained, and the Lenders constituting the Majority Lenders shall reasonably determine and individually notify the Administrative Agent in writing by way of an interest-setting notice, such notice to be substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto, that LIBOR will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of funding and maintaining the outstanding affected Loans, and any other amounts hereunder not paid when due, for the applicable Interest Period, then, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower of the Majority Lenders’ reasonable determination and the interest payable to the Lenders on the Loans, and such other amounts not paid when due, to which the then current Interest Period applies shall be interest at a rate per annum for such Interest Period equal to the Alternate Rate plus the Applicable Margin. The interest rate determined pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 2.10(b) shall be binding on all of the parties hereto and shall take effect from the date the Administrative Agent so notifies the Borrower and be applied retroactively from the beginning of the then current Interest Period in respect of which the Market Disruption Event occurred.

The procedures specified in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall apply to each relevant subsequent period succeeding the first such period to which they were applied unless and until the Administrative Agent (acting at the instruction of the Majority Lenders) notifies the Borrower that it has reasonably determined that the applicable Market Disruption Event no longer exists, which notice the Administrative Agent agrees to give (acting at the instruction of the Majority

 

-26-


Lenders), and the Lenders agree to request, promptly after the cessation of such Market Disruption Event, whereupon interest on the Loans shall again be determined in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.06, effective commencing on the first day of the next Interest Period immediately succeeding such notice. The Administrative Agent hereby agrees that the identity of any Lender delivering a Market Disruption Event Notice shall at all times be kept confidential by the Administrative Agent and shall not be disclosed to any Person.

Section 2.11. Payments and Computations.

(a) Payments. All payments of principal, interest and other amounts to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed in Dollars, without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim.

(b) Payment Procedures. The Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement and under the Instruments not later than 10:00 a.m. (New York City, New York time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office (or such other location as the Administrative Agent shall designate in writing to the Borrower) in immediately available funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed (i) like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable solely to the Administrative Agent or a specific Lender pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.07(c), 2.08, 2.09, 2.12, or 9.08) in accordance with each Lender’s ratable share of such payment to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices and (ii) like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any particular Lender, to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Computations. All computations of interest shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day, but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable; provided, however, that computations of interest based on clause (a) or (b) of the definition of “Alternate Rate” shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day, but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(d) Non-Business Day Payments. Whenever any payment shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Loans to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(e) Administrative Agent Reliance. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may,

 

-27-


but shall not be required to, assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, but shall not be required to, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to six-month LIBOR based on a year with 365/366 days and the actual number of days elapsed.

Section 2.12. Taxes.

(a) No Deduction for Certain Taxes. Any and all payments by or on behalf of the Borrower to or for the account of any Recipient hereunder or under any other Credit Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all Taxes and all liabilities with respect to such payments, excluding, in the case of each Recipient, (1) Taxes imposed on or measured by its net income (however denominated), franchise Taxes imposed on it (in lieu of net income Taxes), and branch profits Taxes, in each case, pursuant to the laws of the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Recipient is organized, or in which its principal office or Applicable Lending Office is located, (2) Taxes attributable to such Recipient’s failure to comply with Section 2.12(i) and (3) any withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA (all such excluded Taxes with respect to such payments being hereinafter referred to as “Excluded Taxes”). If the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by applicable law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under this Agreement or any other Credit Document to any Recipient, (i) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.12) such Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (iv) the Borrower shall furnish to the Administrative Agent written evidence of payment thereof.

(b) FATCA Deductions.

(i) Each Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and no Party shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction.

(ii) Each Party shall, promptly upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction), and in any case at least three (3) Business Days prior to making a FATCA Deduction, notify the Party to whom it is making the payment and, on or prior to the day on which it notifies that Party, shall also notify the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders.

 

-28-


(c) Other Taxes. In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future stamp or documentary Taxes and any other excise or property Taxes or charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made under this Agreement or any other Credit Document or from the execution, delivery or enforcement of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Credit Document (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(d) Indemnification. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender, each Global Coordinator and the Administrative Agent, no later than ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Indemnified Taxes or such Other Taxes imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.12) paid by such Lender, such Global Coordinator or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest, and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by the relevant Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Change in Applicable Lending Office. If the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.12 in excess of the applicable withholding Taxes described in Section 4.19, then such Lender will agree to use reasonable efforts to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office so as to eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue if such change, in the judgment of such Lender, is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. A Lender shall not be required to make any such designation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(f) Evidence of Tax Payments. Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(g) Expenses of Change in Applicable Lending Office. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article II relating to the designation by a Lender of a new applicable lending office, no Lender shall have any obligation in respect of such designation if such designation would subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation.

(h) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, promptly upon demand, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.07(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender and (iv) any FATCA related liability incurred by the Administrative

 

-29-


Agent, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Credit Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.12(h).

(i) Status of Lenders. Any Recipient that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without such withholding or at a reduced rate of such withholding. In addition, any Recipient, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower to determine whether or not such Recipient is subject to backup withholding or applicable information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation shall not be required if in the Recipient’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Recipient to any material unreimbursed cost or expense, would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Recipient or would require the Recipient to disclose confidential or proprietary information. Each Recipient agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this paragraph (i) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form certification or promptly inform the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(j) FATCA Information

(i) Subject to subparagraph (c) below, each Party shall, within ten (10) Business Days of a reasonable request by another Party:

(A) confirm to that other Party whether it is:

(1) a FATCA Exempt Party; or

(2) not a FATCA Exempt Party;

(B) supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with FATCA;

 

-30-


(C) supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with any other law, regulation, or exchange of information regime.

(ii) If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to subparagraph (i)(A) above that it is a FATCA Exempt Party and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not or has ceased to be a FATCA Exempt Party, that Party shall notify that other Party reasonably promptly.

(iii) Subparagraph (i) above shall not oblige any Lender to do anything, and subparagraph (i)(C) above shall not oblige any other Party to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:

(A) any law or regulation;

(B) any fiduciary duty; or

(C) any duty of confidentiality.

(iv) If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with subparagraph (i)(A) or (B) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (iii) above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Credit Documents (and payments under them) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information.

(v) If any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorization or waiver provided to the Administrative Agent by a Lender pursuant to subparagraph (i) above is or becomes materially inaccurate or incomplete, that Lender shall promptly update it and provide such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorization or waiver to the Administrative Agent unless it is unlawful for the Lender to do so (in which case the Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent). The Administrative Agent shall provide any such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorization or waiver to the relevant Borrower.

(vi) The Administrative Agent may rely on any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorization or waiver it receives from a Lender pursuant to subparagraph (i) or (v) above without further verification. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with subparagraph (i) or (v) above.

Section 2.13. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or collateral (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off or otherwise) on account of the Loans made by it in excess of its ratable share of payments or collateral on account of the Loans obtained by all of the Lenders, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of the participation sold by such Lender to the purchasing Lender as a result of such excess payment to (b) the total amount of such excess payment) of such recovery, together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to the purchasing Lender to (b) the total amount of all such required repayments to the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.13 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, unless and until rescinded as provided above, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 8.01. Appointment, Powers and Immunities. Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as its administrative agent under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents with such powers and discretion as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent (which term as used in this sentence and in Section 8.05 and the first sentence of Section 8.06 shall include its Affiliates and its own and its Affiliates’ officers, directors, employees, and agents): (a) shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and shall not be a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender; (b) shall not be responsible to the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation, or warranty (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Credit Document or any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, any Credit Document, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability, or sufficiency of any Credit Document, or any other document referred to or provided for therein or for any failure by the Borrower or any other Person to perform any of its obligations thereunder; (c) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, or verify the performance or observance of any covenants or agreements by the Borrower or the satisfaction of any condition or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (d) shall not be required to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings under any Credit Document; and (e) shall not be responsible for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it under or in connection with any Credit Document, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment). 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 with reasonable care.

Section 8.02. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice, instrument, writing, or other communication (including, without limitation, any thereof by telephone or telecopy) reasonably believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants, and other experts selected by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Instrument as the holder thereof for all purposes of this Agreement unless and until the Administrative Agent receives and accepts an Assignment and Acceptance executed in accordance with Section 9.07. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding on all of the Lenders; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or applicable law or unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking any such action.

 

-53-


Section 8.03. Defaults. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower specifying such Default or Event of 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 or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 8.02) take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall reasonably 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 or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of the Lenders.

Section 8.04. Rights as Lender. In the event that the party acting as Administrative Agent is also a Lender, with respect to such party’s Commitments and the Loans made by it, such party (and any successor acting as both Administrative Agent and a Lender) in its capacity as a Lender hereunder shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. Such party acting as both Administrative Agent and a Lender (and any successor acting as both Administrative Agent and a Lender) and its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any Lender) accept deposits from, lend money to, make investments in, provide services to, and generally engage in any kind of lending, trust, or other business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates as if it were not acting as Administrative Agent, and such party (and any successor acting as both Administrative Agent and a Lender) and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders.

Section 8.05. Reimbursement. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to pay any amount not reimbursed or indemnified under Section 9.08 (but without limiting the obligations of the Borrower under such Section), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined at the time such indemnity is sought), of such unpaid amount (including any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender); 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 Person to be indemnified (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share (determined at the time such indemnity is sought) of any costs or expenses payable by the Borrower under Section 9.05, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower; provided, however, that upon recovery of any or all of such costs and expenses by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall remit to each Lender its ratable share of such amounts so recovered. The agreements contained in this Section 8.05 shall survive payment in full of the Loans and all other amounts payable under this Agreement.

Section 8.06. 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 Borrower 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 the Credit Documents. Except for notices, reports, and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, 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 Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates.

Section 8.07. Resignation and Removal of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving at least thirty (30) days’ notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may be removed at any time upon the written request of the Majority Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower. 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, then the retiring or removed Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges, and duties of the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents. The successor Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of its appointment and confirm its acceptance of all responsibilities under this Agreement. After any retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article VIII 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 Administrative Agent.

Section 8.08. Global Coordinators. The Global Coordinators shall not have any rights or obligations under this Agreement other than the rights set forth in Section 2.03, 2.12 and Article IX.

Section 9.02. Notices, Etc.

(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all notices, demands, requests, consents and other communications provided for in this Agreement shall be given in writing, or by any telecommunication device capable of creating a written record (including electronic mail): if to the Borrower, at the Borrower’s address at Rosario Norte 660, Las Condes, Santiago, Chile, Attention: Mauricio Santos Diaz (telecopy: 562-660-2322; telephone: 562-660-2206); if to any Lender, at its Applicable Lending Office specified opposite its name on Schedule II; if to the Administrative Agent, at its address at Standard Chartered Bank, 5th Floor, 1 Basinghall Avenue, London EC2V 5DD, United Kingdom, Attention: Manager Asset Servicing (telecopy: +44 207 885 9728); or, as to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto and, as to each other party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(b) All notices, demands, requests, consents and other communications described in clause (a) shall be effective (i) if delivered by hand, including any overnight courier service, upon personal delivery, (ii) if delivered by mail, when received, (iii) if delivered by posting to an Approved Electronic Platform, an Internet website or a similar telecommunication device requiring that a user have prior access to such Approved Electronic Platform, website or other device (to the extent permitted by Section 9.03 to be delivered thereunder), when such notice,

 

-56-


demand, request, consent and other communication shall have been made generally available on such Approved Electronic Platform, Internet website or similar device to the class of Person being notified (regardless of whether any such Person must accomplish, and whether or not any such Person shall have accomplished, any action prior to obtaining access to such items, including registration, disclosure of contact information, compliance with a standard user agreement or undertaking a duty of confidentiality) and such Person has been notified in respect of such posting that a communication has been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform and (iv) if delivered by electronic mail or any other telecommunications device, when transmitted to an electronic mail address (or by another means of electronic delivery) as provided in clause (a); provided that notices and communications to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Article II or Article VII) shall not be effective until received by the Administrative Agent.

(c) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) (unless the Administrative Agent requests that the provisions of clause (a) and (b) be followed) and any other provision in this Agreement or any other Credit Document providing for the delivery of any Approved Electronic Communication by any other means, the Borrower shall deliver all Approved Electronic Communications to the Administrative Agent by properly transmitting such Approved Electronic Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format acceptable to the Administrative Agent to loansagencyuk@sc.com or such other electronic mail address (or similar means of electronic delivery) as the Administrative Agent may notify to the Borrower. Nothing in this clause (c) shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to deliver any Approved Electronic Communication to the Borrower in any manner authorized in this Agreement or to request that the Borrower effect delivery in such manner.

Section 9.03. Posting of Approved Electronic Communications.

(a) Each of the Lenders and the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make the Approved Electronic Communications available to the Lenders by posting such Approved Electronic Communications on IntraLinks™ or a substantially similar electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

(b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Borrowing Date, a User ID/Password Authorization System) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a single-user-per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. In consideration for the convenience and other benefits afforded by such distribution and for the other consideration provided hereunder, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Lenders and the Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Approved Electronic Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

 

-57-


(c) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY OTHER MEMBER OF THE AGENT’S GROUP WARRANTS THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OR ANY GLOBAL COORDINATOR IN CONNECTION WITH THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

(d) Each of the Lenders, the Global Coordinators and the Borrower agree that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Approved Electronic Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally-applicable document retention procedures and policies.

Section 9.04. No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any Instrument shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

Section 9.05. Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall: (a) pay on behalf of, or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Global Coordinators on demand for, all of their respective reasonable and documented costs and expenses incurred in connection with the development, negotiation, preparation and execution of the Credit Documents and any other documents prepared in connection therewith, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the syndication by the Administrative Agent and the Global Coordinators of the Commitments, including, without limitation, reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of special New York counsel and special Chilean counsel to the Administrative Agent and Global Coordinators (but excluding fees and disbursements of internal counsel), provided that the liability of the Borrower for costs under this clause (a) shall be subject to the limitations agreed to in writing with the Administrative Agent and the Global Coordinators in Section 8 of the Mandate Letter; (b) pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Global Coordinators for all of their respective reasonable and documented costs and expenses in connection with any amendment, supplement or modification to the Credit Documents and any other documents prepared in connection therewith, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of special New York counsel and special Chilean counsel to the Administrative Agent and Global Coordinators (but excluding fees and disbursements of internal counsel); and (c) pay or reimburse each Global Coordinator, Lender and the Administrative Agent for all its costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under any Credit Document, and any such other documents, including, without limitation, the fees and

 

-58-


disbursements of counsel to each Global Coordinator, Lender and the Administrative Agent. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Borrower contained in this Section 9.05 shall survive the payment in full of the Loans and all other amounts payable under this Agreement.

Section 9.06. Binding Effect. Subject to Section 3.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and when the Administrative Agent shall have, as to each Lender, received a counterpart of this Agreement executed by such Lender and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower shall not have the right to assign any rights or delegate any duties under this Agreement or any interest in this Agreement without the prior written consent of each Lender and any attempted assignment without such prior written consent shall be void and invalid.

Section 9.07. Lender Assignments and Participations.

(a) Assignments. Each Lender may assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Loans, its respective Instrument, and its Commitments) with at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower; provided, however, that

(i) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee;

(ii) except in the case of an assignment to another Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, any such partial assignment shall be in an amount equal to at least five million Dollars ($5,000,000) and in integral multiples of one million Dollars ($1,000,000) in excess thereof;

(iii) each such assignment by a Lender shall be of a constant, and not varying, percentage of all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Instruments (other than rights of reimbursement and indemnity arising before the effective date of such assignment) and shall be of an equal pro rata share of the assigning Lender’s interest in the Loans and Commitments; and

(iv) the parties to such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance an Assignment and Acceptance in substantially the form of the attached Exhibit A. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an Eligible Assignee, together with any Instrument subject to such assignment (if applicable) and, except in the case of an assignment by a Lender to its Affiliate, a processing fee of $3,500 paid by the assigning Lender or the Eligible Assignee, the Administrative Agent shall, (A) accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (B) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower.

 

-59-


Upon execution, delivery, and acceptance of such Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the processing fee (as applicable), the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of such assignment, have the obligations, rights, and benefits of a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent of such assignment, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that the assigning Lender shall retain its rights to indemnification and reimbursement hereunder to which it was entitled prior to the effective date of the assignment or that otherwise relate to facts or circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment. No later than five (5) Business Days after the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent that it has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the processing fee (as applicable), the Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent all such other documents, instruments and agreements (other than a New Note governed by the laws of Chile), including, but not limited to, a new Recognition of Debt, and take all such other actions as may be reasonably required to effect such assignment. When a Lender assigns to an assignee only part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and such part is in respect of a principal amount of the Loan which is evidenced by the New Recognition of Debt, the Borrower shall issue one or more replacement Recognitions of Debt in favor of the relevant Lender and the assignee. As appropriate, each assignee shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent any certifications required by Section 2.12.

(b) The Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and principal amount and stated interest of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(c) Procedures. Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by the parties thereto, together with any Instrument subject to such assignment (if applicable) and payment of the processing fee (as applicable), the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit A, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the parties thereto.

(d) Participations. Each Lender may sell participations to one or more Persons in all or a portion of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and its Loans); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties to this Agreement for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the participant shall be entitled to the benefit of the yield protection provisions contained in Sections 2.08, 2.09 and 2.10, the right of set-off contained in Section 7.05, and the reporting requirements contained in Section 5.05, (iv) the Borrower shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender

 

-60-


shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrower relating to its Loans and its Instrument and to approve any amendment, modification, or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications, or waivers decreasing the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on such Loans or Instrument, extending any scheduled principal payment date or date fixed for the payment of interest on such Loans or Instrument, or extending its Commitments) and (v) such participant agrees to be subject to Section 9.09 as if such participant were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Commitments or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, or its other obligations under this Agreement) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) Federal Reserve Bank or Central Bank. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or central bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(f) Confidentiality. Any Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in the possession of such Lender from time to time to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants), subject, however, to the provisions of Section 9.09.

(g) No assignee, participant or other transferee (including a new lending office of the Lender) of the Lender’s rights shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.12 than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless (i) such transfer is made by reason of the provisions of Section 2.07(c) or Section 2.09 or (ii) such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in law, rule, regulation or treaty that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.

Section 9.08. Indemnity by Borrower. The Borrower agrees to indemnify, save, and hold harmless, promptly upon demand, the Administrative Agent, each Lender, each Global Coordinator and their respective Affiliates and controlling Persons, and the respective directors, officers, employees, attorneys, agents, consultants and advisors of or to any of the foregoing (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any

 

-61-


Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Borrower) other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that no Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification for any loss caused solely by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct or as a result of a claim brought by the Borrower against such Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Credit Document (in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

Section 9.09. Confidentiality; K-Y-C Rules.

(a) The Administrative Agent and each Lender (each, a “Lending Party”) agrees to (i) with respect to any information furnished or made available to it by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement on or prior to the date hereof, keep such information confidential and (ii) with respect to any information furnished or made available to it by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Agreement after the date hereof, keep confidential such information as is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lending Party from disclosing such information (i) to any other Lending Party or any Affiliate of any Lending Party, or any officer, director, employee, agent, or advisor of any Lending Party or Affiliate of any Lending Party (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential), (ii) to any other Person if reasonably incidental to the administration of the credit facility provided herein (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information), (iii) as required by any law, rule, or regulation, (iv) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (v) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority (including, without limitation, any Federal Reserve Bank or Central Bank or any self-regulatory authority), (vi) that is or becomes available to the public or that is or becomes available to any Lending Party other than as a result of a disclosure by any Lending Party prohibited by this Agreement, (vii) in connection with any litigation to which such Lending Party or any of its Affiliates may be a party, in which case, such Lending Party agrees to provide prompt written notice to the Borrower of such disclosure to the extent permitted by law, (viii) to the extent necessary in connection with the exercise of any remedy under this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (ix) subject to provisions substantially similar to those contained in this Section, to any actual or proposed participant or assignee, (x) to professional advisers and service providers of the Lending Parties who are under a duty of confidentiality to the Lending Parties, (xi) to any rating agency, insurer or insurance broker of, or direct or indirect provider of credit protection to, any Lending Party and (xii) to any direct, indirect, actual or prospective counterparty (and its advisor) to any swap, derivative or securitization transaction related to the obligations under this Agreement.

 

-62-


(b) Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) and other applicable know-your-customer directives, laws, rules or regulations, it may be required to obtain, verify and record, in accordance therewith, information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower. The Borrower hereby agrees to provide to any Lender any of the foregoing information that such Lender is so required to obtain, verify or record.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties to this Agreement in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of counterparts hereto via telecopier shall be as effective as delivery of original counterparts.

Section 9.11. Survival of Representations, Etc. All representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or made in writing by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Credit Documents, the making of the Loans and any investigation made by or on behalf of the Lenders, none of which investigations shall diminish any Lender’s right to rely on such representations and warranties. All obligations of the Borrower provided for in Sections 2.08, 2.09, 2.12, 9.05, 9.08, 9.14 and 9.15 and of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders provided for in Section 9.09(a) (but only for two years after repayment in full of the Instruments in respect of Section 9.09(a)) shall survive any termination of the Commitments or this Agreement and repayment in full of the other Credit Obligations.

Section 9.12. Severability. In case one or more provisions of this Agreement or the other Credit Documents shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein or therein shall not be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 9.13. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Section 9.14. Consent to Jurisdiction; Language.

THE BORROWER AGREES THAT A FINAL JUDGMENT IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE CONCLUSIVE AND MAY BE ENFORCED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS BY SUIT ON THE JUDGMENT OR IN ANY OTHER MANNER PROVIDED BY LAW. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHTS OF ANY LENDER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO SERVE LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY LENDER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO BRING ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING AGAINST THE BORROWER OR ITS PROPERTY IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGE OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE ENGLISH.

Section 9.15. Currency Indemnity.

(a) If the Administrative Agent or any Lender receives an amount in respect of the Borrower’s liability under this Agreement, or if that liability is converted into a claim, proof, judgment, or order, in a currency other than the currency (the “Contractual Currency”) in which the amount is expressed to be payable under this Agreement:

(i) the Borrower will indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender as an independent obligation against any loss or liability arising out of or as result of such conversion or the receipt of an amount in a currency other than the Contractual Currency;

(ii) if the amount received by the Administrative Agent or such Lender when converted into the Contractual Currency at a market rate in the usual course of its business, is less than the amount owed in the Contractual Currency, the Borrower will forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent or such Lender an amount in the Contractual Currency equal to the deficit; if it is more, the receiving Administrative Agent or Lender will forthwith on demand pay to the Borrower an amount in the Contractual Currency equal to the excess; and

(iii) the Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent or such Lender concerned forthwith on demand any exchange cost and Taxes and Other Taxes payable in connection with any such conversion or the receipt of an amount in a currency other than the Contractual Currency.

 

-64-


(b) The Borrower waives any right it might have in any jurisdiction to pay any amount under this Agreement in a currency other than that in which it is expressed to be payable.

Section 9.16. Complete Agreement. THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DETERMINED SOLELY FROM THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT, AND ANY PRIOR ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES ARE SUPERSEDED BY AND MERGED INTO THIS AGREEMENT. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS REPRESENT THE FINAL AGREEMENT AMONG THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS, OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES.

Section 9.17. Waiver of Jury. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE LENDERS, THE GLOBAL COORDINATORS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT, OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OF ANY PARTY RELATING HERETO OR THERETO. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE LENDERS, THE GLOBAL COORDINATORS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.

Section 9.18. Waiver of Immunities. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if the Borrower has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (sovereign or otherwise) from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from jurisdiction of any court or from set-off or any legal process (whether service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) with respect to itself or any of its property, the Borrower hereby irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim such immunity in respect of its obligations under any Credit Document. The Borrower 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 and not subject to withdrawal for purposes of such Act.

Section 9.19. International Banking Facilities. The Borrower understands it is the policy of the Federal Reserve Board that extensions of credit by international banking facilities (as defined in Section 204.8(a) of Regulation D) may be used only to finance the non-U.S. operations of a customer (or its foreign affiliates) located outside the United States as provided in Section 204.8(a)(3)(vi) of Regulation D. Therefore, the Borrower acknowledges that the proceeds of the Loans constituting the extension of credit by the international banking facility of any of the Lenders (as defined in Section 204.8(a) of Regulation D) will be used solely to finance the Borrower’s operations outside the United States or that of the Borrower’s non-U.S. Affiliates.

 

-65-


Section 9.20. No Novation. This Amended and Restated Credit Agreement shall not effect a novation of any of the obligations under the Existing Credit Agreement and the Existing Notes, which obligations continue in full force and effect as set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement and the Existing Notes, as amended and restated hereby; provided that following the Closing Date, the New Recognition of Debt replaces and supersedes the Existing Recognition of Debt.

Section 9.21. Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in Section 9.08 above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

We assume that (i) there has been no mutual mistake of fact, or misunderstanding or fraud, duress or undue influence in connection with the negotiation, delivery and execution of the Transaction Documents and (ii) there are and have been no agreements or understandings among the parties, written or oral, and there is and has been no usage of trade or course of prior dealing among the parties that would, in either case, vary, supplement, or qualify the terms of the Transaction Documents.

Our opinions set forth herein are based on our consideration of only those statutes, rules, regulations and judicial decisions which, in our experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Transaction Documents.

With respect to certain factual matters material to our opinions, we have relied upon representations and warranties of the Company in the Transaction Documents, and certificates or comparable documents of officers of the Company, public officials and other authorized persons and we have made no independent inquiry into the accuracy of such representations or certificates.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the assumptions and qualifications set forth above and hereinafter, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Transaction Documents constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms.

2. The execution and delivery by the Company of the Transaction Documents and consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents do not violate any law, statute, rule or regulation under the federal laws of the United States (assuming that the proceeds of the Loan are used solely for the purposes set forth in the Credit Agreement) or the State of New York applicable to the Company.

3. No order, consent, approval or filing, recording or registration with or exemption by any New York or federal Governmental Authority is required to authorize or is required in connection with (i) the execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or (ii) the validity, binding effect or enforceability against the Company of the Transaction Documents.

4. None of the Company or its Subsidiaries are registered or required to be registered as an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” pursuant to Section 8 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

5. Under the laws of the State of New York relating to submission to personal jurisdiction, the Company has, pursuant to Section 9.14 of the Credit Agreement, validly submitted to the personal jurisdiction of the courts referenced therein, in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby.

The opinions expressed above also do not reflect the effect of laws and equitable doctrines (including requirements that the parties to agreements act reasonably and in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, and give reasonable notice prior to exercising rights and remedies) or the effect of the exercise of discretion of the court before which any proceeding may be brought, which may limit the availability of any particular remedy, and except that we express no opinion as to the rights of any of the parties to the Transaction Documents to accelerate the due date of any payment due thereunder or to exercise other remedies available to them on the happening of a non-material breach of any such document or agreement.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we express no opinion with respect to: (1) the availability of specific performance or other equitable remedies for noncompliance with any of the provisions contained in the Transaction Documents; (2) the enforceability of provisions contained in the Transaction Documents relating to the effect of laws not currently in effect which may be enacted in the future; (3) the enforceability of provisions in the Transaction Documents purporting to waive the effect of applicable laws to the extent such waivers are prohibited by such applicable laws; (4) the effectiveness of any power-of-attorney given under the Transaction Documents that is intended to bind successors and assigns that have not granted such powers by a power-of-attorney specifically executed by them; (5) provisions related to waivers of remedies (or the delay or omission of enforcement thereof), disclaimers, liability limitations or limitations on the obligations of the Lenders in circumstances in which a failure of condition or default by any party is not material; (6) the indemnification and contribution provisions of the Transaction Documents if and to the extent that such provisions contravene public policy or might require indemnification or payments with respect to any litigation against a party to the Transaction Documents determined adversely to the other party(ies) to such litigation, or any loss, cost or expense arising out of an indemnified party’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct or any violation by an indemnified party of statutory duties, general principles of equity or public policy; (7) any self-help provisions, (8) provisions in the Transaction Documents that purport to establish evidentiary standards; (9) provisions in the Transaction Documents that provide that certain rights or obligations are absolute or unconditional; (10) the right of any Lender to set off against funds held in any account maintained with such Lender by the Company and which account is designated, or contains funds that such Lender is aware have been set aside, for special purposes, such as payroll, trust and escrow accounts, or which funds are subject to special agreement between such Lender and the Company expressly precluding or limiting rights to set off funds; (11) provisions that provide for the enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions of the Transaction Documents in circumstances in which certain other terms and provisions of the Transaction Documents are illegal or unenforceable; (12) provisions that restrict access to or waive legal or equitable remedies or access to courts; (13) provisions that affect or confer jurisdiction (other than on the courts of New York); (14) provisions that permit any Lender to act in its sole discretion or to be exculpated from liability for its actions to the extent not permitted by law; (15) any provision of

the Transaction Documents that may be construed as a forfeiture or penalty; (16) any provision of the Transaction Documents that purports to provide that the terms thereof may not be varied or waived except in writing or that the express terms thereof supersede any inconsistent course of performance and/or usage of the trade; (17) the effect of the laws of any jurisdiction (other than New York and U.S. Federal laws) in which the Administrative Agent or any Lender is located that limits the interest, fees or other charges it may impose for the Loan or use of money or other credit; (18) Section 9.15 of the Credit Agreement; (19) Section 9.18 of the Credit Agreement to the extent it relates to immunity acquired after the date hereof; (20) any provisions of the Transaction Documents to the effect that certain determinations made by one party shall have conclusive or binding effect; or (21) the enforceability of any so-called “savings clauses” or other similar provisions of the Transaction Documents.

(c) No opinion is rendered as to any federal, state or local laws, rules, or regulations relating to (1) antitrust or unfair competition; (2) securities or “blue sky” laws (except as set forth in paragraph 4 above); (3) environmental matters; (4) tax matters; (5) laws, rules and regulations under the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended; (6) counties, cities, townships, municipalities or other special local non-state governmental authorities; (7) insurance, banking or financial institutions, or (8) anti-terrorism. In addition, no opinion is rendered herein as to applicability to or effect on any of the matters covered herein of the laws or regulations that apply specifically to the type of business conducted by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or the regulatory status of any party to the Transaction Documents.

(d) In connection with our opinion set forth in paragraph (5) above, we assume that any such suit or proceeding will be properly brought in a court having jurisdiction over the subject matter, and we are expressing no opinion with respect to the subject matter jurisdiction of any such court. Also, we are expressing no opinion as to whether or under what circumstances such a court might decline to accept jurisdiction over such action on the ground that New York is an inconvenient forum. Furthermore, we express no opinion with respect to the provisions of Section 9.14 of the Credit Agreement insofar as it relates to (i) the subject matter jurisdiction of any United States Federal court to adjudicate any controversy, (ii) the jurisdiction of any courts other than the courts of the State of New York and United States federal courts, (iii) the conclusiveness or enforceability of foreign judgments, (iv) the waiver of inconvenient forum with respect to proceedings in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or (v) the waiver of a party’s right to a jury trial.

(e) Our opinion as to the enforceability of the choice of New York law as the governing law is subject to the qualification that (i) a court outside New York may decline to enforce the choice of law provisions in the Transaction Documents on the grounds of comity or (ii) any court may decline to enforce the choice of law provisions in the Transaction Documents because United States constitutional requirements are not satisfied.

We express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the United States of America and the State of New York. Without limiting the foregoing, we do not hold ourselves out as experts on, or purport to advise on, the laws of the Republic of Chile.

This opinion speaks only as of the date hereof. We have no obligation to advise the addressees (or any third party) of any changes in the law or facts that may occur after the date of this opinion.

Our opinions expressed herein are solely for your benefit and the benefit of your permitted assigns and participants under the Credit Agreement. This opinion may not be relied upon in any manner by any other person and may not be disclosed, quoted, assigned or circulated or furnished or filed with a governmental agency or otherwise referred to without our express written consent other than to such participants and assigns (it being understood that this opinion

FORM OF LEGAL OPINION OF IN-HOUSE COUNSEL TO THE BORROWER

Santiago (Chile), July [    ], 2014

To Standard Chartered Bank, as the Administrative Agent

and to each of the Lenders parties to the Agreement

Referred to below

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I have acted as in-house counsel to Corpbanca (the Borrower”) in connection with: (a) the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July [    ], 2014 (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the Agreement”), among the Borrower, the banks listed therein as lenders (the “Lenders”), Standard Chartered Bank, as Administrative Agent, and HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., Standard Chartered Bank and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as global coordinators (collectively, the Global Coordinators”); and (b) the Instruments (as defined in the Agreement) to be executed by the Borrower to the order of the Lenders pursuant to the Agreement (together, the Credit Documents”). All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined are used herein as defined in the Agreement.

In rendering this opinion, I have examined each of the following documents:

 

(1) the Escritura de Constitución and Estatutos of the Borrower;

 

(2) the Agreement;

 

(3) the form of the Note attached to the Agreement as Exhibit B;

 

(4) the form of the Recognition of Debt attached to the Agreement as Exhibit C;

 

(5) Publics deed dated [•], both granted before the notary public of Santiago, Mr. José Musalem Saffie, containing the power of attorney and required authorizations for Mr. Fernando Massu Tare to enter and execute the Agreement; and

 

(6) Power of Attorney dated [•], for Fernando Burgos and Joaquin Rojas to act on behalf of Corpbanca.

In addition, I have examined and relied on originals or copies of all such corporate records of the Borrower and such other instruments and certificates of public officials, officers and representatives of the Borrower, and I have made such investigations of law as I have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinions expressed herein.

In rendering the opinions expressed herein, I have assumed and have not independently verified (i) that the signatures on all the documents that I have examined are genuine; (ii) that all documents submitted to us as originals are authentic and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies; (iii) that the Agreement has been duly executed and delivered pursuant to the laws of the State of New York and is a valid and binding agreement of each party, enforceable against each such party in accordance with its terms under the laws of the State of New York.

 

H-1


The opinions expressed in this letter are limited to questions arising pursuant to the laws of Chile and I do not express any opinion on any question arising under the laws of any other jurisdiction.

Now, based upon the foregoing, but subject to the qualifications expressed below, I am of the opinion that:

 

1. The Borrower is a banking stock corporation (sociedad anónima bancaria) duly organized and validly existing under the laws of Chile and has the requisite power, authority and governmental approvals, licenses, authorizations or consents to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as presently conducted.

 

2. Each Credit Document has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower.

 

3. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Credit Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby (a) are within the Borrower’s corporate powers, (b) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, (c) do not contravene the Borrower’s constitutive documents or organizational documents, (d) do not violate the laws of Chile applicable to the Borrower and (e) will not require the creation or imposition of any Lien prohibited by the Agreement.

 

4. Each Credit Document is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with their terms. The Credit Documents do not contain any provisions which are contrary to Chilean laws regulations or public policy, as presently construed by Chilean Courts.

 

5. The Escritura pública de reprogramación y reconocimiento de deuda (Recognition of Debt) and the Pagarés (Promissory Note), both under Exhibit C and Exhibit B of the Agreement, respectively, once executed and upon the payment of any applicable Chilean stamp tax (when applicable), will constitute (i) legal, valid and binding obligations under the laws of Chile, which is their governing law, and (ii) título ejecutivos (executive instruments) in Chile for the payment of the Loans documented thereby and will entitle the holder thereof to acción ejecutiva (summary proceedings) for the enforcement thereof. Notwithstanding the commencement of such acción ejecutiva (summary proceedings) in Chile on any such Instrument, the holder of such Instrument would be entitled concurrently to bring an ordinary action in Chile on the other Credit Documents for collection of other sums (without duplication of any amounts subject to the acción ejecutiva) owed to such holder under the Credit Documents.

 

6. No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required to be obtained or made for the due execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Credit Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, except for the filing with the Banco Central de Chile of the terms and conditions of the Agreement pursuant to Section A.1 of Chapter XIII of the Compendium of Foreign Exchange Regulations of the Banco Central de Chile, which must be made no later than the date of the Initial Borrowing. However, a breach by the Borrower of this filing requirement does not affect the ability of the Borrower to comply with its payment obligations under any Credit Document or the rights of the Lenders under any Credit Document.

 

H-2


7. All acts, conditions, and things required by the laws of Chile in force at the date hereof to be done, fulfilled, and performed in order (a) to enable the Borrower lawfully to enter into the Credit Documents and to exercise its rights under and perform and comply with the obligations expressed to be assumed by it in the Credit Documents, and (b) to ensure that the obligations expressed to be assumed by the Borrower in the Credit Documents are legal, valid, and binding, have been done, fulfilled, and performed.

 

8. The choice of New York law to govern the Credit Agreement is, under the laws of Chile, a valid, effective and irrevocable choice of law.

 

9. There is no tax, levy, impost, deduction, charge or withholding imposed by Chile or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein either (i) on or by virtue of the execution or delivery of the Credit Documents or any other document to be furnished thereunder; (ii) on any payment to be made by the Borrower, [except that (x) a stamp tax will be payable in respect of the principal amount of “C Term Loans” at a rate of 0,6% on the principal amount thereof (the “Stamp Tax”)], and (y) payments of interest made by the Borrower from Chile will be subject to Chilean withholding tax at an effective rate of [4.0%] if paid to the Administrative Agent or to any of the Lenders or Global Coordinators that is a foreign or international banking or financial institution, or to a 35% withholding tax to the extent paid to any other person or entity domiciled or resident abroad, while other payments under the Credit Documents (excluding principal) made by the Borrower from Chile may be subject to Chilean withholding tax at an effective rate of up to 35%. The Borrower is permitted under applicable law to pay any additional amounts payable under Section 2.09 and 2.12 of the Agreement and such provisions are valid and binding under the laws of Chile.

 

10. [Except for the payment of the Stamp Tax applicable to the “C Term Loans”, the Credit Documents are in proper legal form under the laws of Chile for the enforcement thereof in accordance with their respective terms in the courts of Chile and the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Documents may be enforced (by judgment and levy) in accordance with their respective terms and the following paragraph in a proceeding at law in any competent court in Chile.]

 

11. In order to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility into evidence in Chile of any Credit Document, it is not necessary for such document to be filed or recorded with any court or authority in Chile nor that any tax [(other than the Stamp Tax respect the “C Term Loans”)] be paid on or in respect of such document; provided, however that, for the enforceability or admissibility into evidence of the Agreement, such document would have to be translated into the Spanish language by an approved translator (which translation could be effected at any time prior to such document being so admitted into evidence).

 

12. The claims of the Administrative Agent, the Global Coordinators and the Lenders against the Borrower under the Credit Documents rank at least pari passu in priority of payment and in all other respects with the claims of all its other unsecured and unsubordinated creditors save those whose claims are preferred solely by the laws of Chile relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, or other similar laws of general application.

 

13. The qualification of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Global Coordinator for admission to do business under the laws of Chile does not constitute a condition to, and the failure to so qualify does not affect the exercise by the Administrative Agent or such Lender of, any right, power or remedy accorded to it under any Credit Document.

 

H-3


14. The Borrower is subject to civil and commercial laws with respect to its obligations under the Agreement and the Instruments and the execution, delivery and performance by it of its obligations under such documents constitute private and commercial acts (jure gestionis acts) rather than public or governmental acts (jure imperii acts). Neither the Borrower nor any of its properties has any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) under the laws of Chile.

 

15. No litigation, arbitration, suit, investigation or administrative proceeding is currently pending or threatened against or affecting the Borrower or any of its assets before any court, arbitrator or governmental agency that purports to, or may affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any of the Credit Documents or, if determined adversely to the Borrower, could individually or in the aggregate reasonably be likely to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

16. The (i) submission by the Borrower to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof, (ii) appointment of the agent for service of process and the designation of the method of service of process in the Agreement, and (iii) waiver of any objection to the laying of venue of certain actions, suits or proceedings, are, in each case, valid and effective under the laws of Chile, and are irrevocably binding on the Borrower.

 

17. The courts of Chile will recognize as valid, and will enforce any final and conclusive civil judgment for a monetary claim obtained in a state or federal court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York, against the Borrower by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Global Coordinator under the Agreement without any retrial or re-examination of the merits of the original action under the following circumstances:

 

  (a) subject to subclause (c) below, if there is a treaty between Chile and the United States with respect to the enforcement of foreign judgments. Currently, there is no such treaty;

 

  (b)

subject to subclause (c) below, if there is no treaty, but either (i) the judgment is enforced as a result of reciprocity in the enforcement of judgments by State of New York or Federal courts of the United States sitting in the Borough of Manhattan (i.e., the relevant New York court would enforce a judgment of a Chilean court under comparable circumstances) or (ii) it cannot be proved that there is no reciprocity in the enforcement of judgments by such New York courts; provided, however, that such judgment will only be enforced if it has not been rendered by default within the meaning of Chilean law; provided, further, that (i) I am of the opinion that the judgment would not be considered to have been rendered by default if personal service of process is made upon an agent of the Borrower assuming that such manner of service is valid under the laws of the State of New York, unless the Borrower is able to prove that due to other reasons it was prevented from making use of its legal means of defense, and (ii) under Chilean law, the service of process by means of mailing copies to the Borrower

 

H-4


  may be deemed not effective to cause proper service of process and, consequently, any judgment rendered in a legal proceeding in which process was served by means of mailing copies to the Borrower may be then effectively contested by the Borrower in Chile; and

 

  (c) such judgment is not contrary to the public policy of Chile or Chilean jurisdiction, and does not affect in any way any property located in Chile, which are, as a matter of Chilean law, subject exclusively to the jurisdiction of Chilean courts.

Pursuant to the rules described above, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Global Coordinator would be entitled to enforce such judgment in Chile in accordance with the procedure contemplated for the enforcement of final and conclusive foreign judgments in the Chilean Civil Procedure Code (“exequator”).

With respect to public policy and the enforcement of the obligations of the Borrower, and foreign judgments with respect thereto, and subject to the foregoing paragraph, I am of the opinion that, generally, any provision purporting to authorize conclusive determinations by any person whether for interest, indemnities, costs or otherwise may not be enforceable if they are based upon a determination which is so arbitrary and unreasonable as to be contrary to basic and fundamental principles of Chilean law or public policy. Also, disclaimers of liability will only be enforceable if there is no gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the party making such disclaimer.

Finally, I express no opinion as to the enforceability in Chile of a judgment rendered outside Chile against the Borrower, obtained in any court other than any New York court.

 

18. Neither the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, or the Global Coordinators will be deemed to be residents, domiciled, or carrying on business in Chile by reason only of the execution, delivery, performance and/or enforcement of any Credit Document.

The foregoing opinions are subject to the following additional qualifications:

 

(A) The opinions expressed in this opinion letter are subject to the effect of (i) applicable bankruptcy, liquidation, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

 

(B) The opinions expressed in this letter are limited to questions arising under the laws of Chile, and I do not purport to express an opinion on any question arising under the laws of any other jurisdiction.

 

(C) This opinion is effective only as of the date hereof. I expressly disclaim any responsibility to advise you of any development or circumstance of any kind including any change of law or fact that may occur after the date of this letter even though such development, circumstance or change may affect the legal analysis, a legal conclusion or any other matter set forth in or relating to this letter. Accordingly, if you intend to rely on this letter at any time after the date hereof you should seek the advice of counsel as to the proper application thereof at such time.

 

H-5


(D) I am furnishing this opinion to you solely for your benefit and this opinion may not be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to, or relied upon by, any person or entity other than the addressees hereof and your permitted successors and assigns, or for any other purpose, without my prior written consent in each instance, except that you may disclose this opinion to: (i) any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you, if required by any law or regulation; (ii) your legal advisors, auditors, supervisors or regulators; or (iii) a prospective new lender or sub-participant to the Agreement.

Sincerely yours,

(a) Insofar as our foregoing opinion relates to the enforceability of any provision of the Opinion Documents, such opinion is subject to (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, conservatorship, liquidation, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) the application of general principles of equity (whether applied by a court in equity or at law), including, without limitation, (x) the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy and (y) concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing in the performance and enforcement of contracts and (iii) any judicial administrative or other action giving effect to the actions of foreign governmental authorities or to foreign laws.

(b) Our opinion herein is also subject to the effect of applicable law that may limit the enforceability of, or render ineffective, certain provisions contained in the Opinion Documents, although the inclusion of such provisions does not (subject to the other qualifications set forth herein) make the remedies afforded by the Opinion Documents (taken as a whole) inadequate for the practical realization of the principal benefits intended to be afforded thereby.

(c) We express no opinion as to (i) the legal or regulatory status or the nature of the business of any party to the Opinion Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby; or (ii) the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any provision of the Opinion Documents relating to indemnification, contribution, exculpation or limitation of liability that is violative of or rendered unenforceable by public policy or any law, rule or regulation (including, without limitation, any federal or state securities law, rule or regulation).

(d) We express no opinion as to (i) any provision of the Opinion Documents that appoints or purports to appoint attorneys-in-fact or other representatives or confers powers of attorney or grants similar authorizations or powers or that provides that a determination by any party will be conclusive and binding on any other parties, (ii) any provision of the Opinion Documents stating that the partial invalidity of one or more provisions of the Opinion Documents shall not invalidate the remaining provisions thereof or that provides for the severance of any invalid, illegal or unenforceable term of the Opinion Documents from the other terms of the Opinion Documents, (iii) any provision of the Opinion Documents that constitutes or has the effect of a waiver (expressly or by implication) of illegality or of rights, duties or defenses, or of provisions of law, which cannot as a matter of law or public policy be waived, (iv) any requirement in the Opinion Documents that the provisions thereof may only be waived or amended in writing, (v) any rights of setoff provided in the Opinion Documents, (vi) any provision of the Opinion Documents that purports to establish, waive or modify evidentiary standards (or may be construed to do so), (vii) any provision of the Opinion Documents which constitutes an agreement of the parties to agree at a future time, (viii) any arbitration provisions or any waiver of jury trial, (ix) any restrictions in the Opinion Documents on the transfer by the Borrower of its rights under the Opinion Documents, (x) any provision of the Opinion Documents that provides that the assertion or employment of any right or remedy shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy, or that each and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other remedy or that any delay or omission or

 

I-6


exercise any right or remedy shall not impair any other right or remedy or constitute a waiver thereof, (xi) any provision of the Opinion Documents that refers to, incorporates or is based upon the law of any jurisdiction other than New York State or the United States, (xii) any document that is incorporated or referred to in the Opinion Documents and (xiii) any non-English terms or phrases or any provision that incorporates or uses such terms or phrases.

(e) We express no opinion as to (i) the subject matter jurisdiction of any United States federal court, or (ii) whether a United States federal court will give effect to (x) the waiver of any objection to the laying of venue and of any claim of forum non conveniens or (y) the forum selection provisions contained in the Credit Agreement, and we note that the designation in the Credit Agreement of any New York State or Federal Court sitting in the borough of Manhattan, the city of New York and any appellate court or body thereto as the venue for actions or proceedings under the Credit Agreement is subject to the power of such courts to transfer such actions and proceedings pursuant to 28 U.S.C. §1404(a) or to dismiss such actions and proceedings on the ground that such federal court is an inconvenient forum for such actions or proceedings.

(f) Insofar as our opinion concerns the provisions of the Opinion Documents specifying the law of the State of New York as the law governing the Opinion Documents or providing for the submission to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, such opinion is made in reliance on Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law and Section 327(b) of the New York Civil Practice Law and Rules and is subject to the provisions of Subdivision 2 of Section 1-105 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and to the qualification that such provisions regarding choice of law may not be enforced by courts of jurisdictions other than the courts of the State of New York. You should note that the application of New York law pursuant to Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law to a transaction having no nexus, or minimal nexus, with the State of New York may be subject to constitutional limitations.

(g) We call to your attention that effective enforcement of a claim denominated in foreign currency may be limited by requirements that the claim (or a judgment in respect of such claim) be converted into U.S. dollars at a rate of exchange prevailing on a specified date. We express no opinion as to (i) whether a federal or state court would award a judgment in a currency other than U.S. dollars or (ii) the enforceability of any provision of the Opinion Documents which requires the Borrower to indemnify any Person against a loss in obtaining the currency due to such Person pursuant to a court judgment denominated in another currency.

(h) We express no opinion as to any provisions of the Opinion Documents providing for forfeitures or the recovery of, or securing, amounts deemed to constitute penalties, or for or in the nature of liquidated damages, acceleration of future amounts due (other than principal) without appropriate discount to present value, late charges, prepayment charges and make-whole premiums, default interest, and other economic remedies to the extent such provisions are deemed to constitute penalties.

(i) We note that New York law requires good faith and fair dealing in the performance and enforcement of contracts.

(j) We express no opinion as to the effect on the opinion set forth herein of (i) any failure by any party to the Opinion Documents to comply with laws and regulations pertaining to banks, trustees or other financial institutions or affiliates thereof, if applicable, or other laws or regulations applicable to any party to the Opinion Documents by reason of such party’s status or the nature of its business or assets, or (ii) the failure of any party to the Opinion Documents to be authorized to conduct business in any jurisdiction.

 

I-7


(k) We express no opinion as to the effect of any judicial, administrative or other action giving effect to the actions of foreign courts or other foreign governmental authorities or to foreign laws.

(l) Insofar as our opinion herein concerns any waiver of sovereign immunity, such opinion is subject to the limitation of the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976, as amended (the “FSIA”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we express no opinion as to the effect of a waiver of sovereign immunity by an entity which at the time of such waiver is not a sovereign state or an agency or instrumentality of a sovereign state (as such terms are defined in the FSIA).

(m) We express no opinion as to, or as to the effect on the opinion contained in this opinion letter of: (i) federal or state securities laws or regulations, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 2005, as amended, and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; (ii) the margin regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; (iii) federal or state antitrust or unfair competition laws or regulations, including the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1986, as amended; (iv) federal or state banking or insurance laws; (v) federal or state environmental laws or regulations; (vi) federal or state tax laws or regulations; (vii) federal or state public utility laws or regulations and other laws regulating the generation or transmission of energy, power or gas; (viii) the Commodity Exchange Act and regulations thereunder; (ix) labor, pension or employee benefit laws or regulations, including, without limitation, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and regulations promulgated thereunder; (x) federal patent, copyright or trademark, state trademark, or other federal or state intellectual property laws or regulations; (xi) federal or state health and safety laws or regulations; (xii) racketeering laws and regulations; (xiii) criminal and civil forfeiture laws and regulations; (xiv) land use and zoning laws and regulations; (xv) federal or state laws, regulations or policies relating to national or local emergencies; (xvi) statutes, ordinances, administrative decisions, rules or regulations of counties, towns, municipalities or special political subdivisions (whether created or enabled through legislative action at the federal, state or regional level); (xvii) federal or state usury laws (other than New York usury laws); (xviii) the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, 15 U.S.C. §§ 78dd-1, et seq., as amended, and regulations issued thereunder; (xix) the Exon-Florio Amendment to the Defense Production Act of 1952; (xx) the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Public L. 107-56), as amended, and other regulations issued thereunder or other anti-money laundering laws or regulations; (xxi) (w) the Trading with the Enemy Act of 1917, 50 U.S.C.A. app. §1 et seq., of the United States, as amended, (x) the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, 50 U.S.C.A. §1701 et seq., of the United States, as amended, (y) the Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability and Divestment Act of 2010, as amended, and any other laws prohibiting, restricting, or imposing sanctions on Persons engaging in, certain types of activities involving countries specified therein, and any regulation and United States Executive Order relating thereto, or (z) all United States Executive Orders (including the September 24, 2001, Executive Order Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions with Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit or support Terrorism), rules, regulations (including those from the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Department of the Treasury), and other official acts promulgated under any of the foregoing; (xxii) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any regulations promulgated thereunder; (xxiii) any other laws to the extent not customarily applicable to general business entities with respect to transactions of the type contemplated by the Opinion Documents; and (xxiv) judicial decisions to the extent that they deal with any of the foregoing.

FORM OF LEGAL OPINION OF SPECIAL CHILE COUNSEL TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Santiago, [], 2014

To Standard Chartered Bank, as the Administrative Agent

and to each of the Lenders parties to the Agreement

Referred to below

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as your special Chilean counsel in connection with: (a) the Credit Agreement, dated as of [•], 2014 (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the Agreement) among Corpbanca (the Borrower”), the banks listed therein as lenders (the “Lenders”), Standard Chartered Bank, as Administrative Agent, HSBC Securities (USA) Inc, Standard Chartered Bank and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as global coordinators (collectively, the Global Coordinators”); (b) the New Notes (as defined in the Agreement) to be executed by the Borrower to the order of the Lenders pursuant to the Agreement, and (c) the Recognition of Debt (as defined in the Agreement) to be executed by the Borrower to the order of the Lenders pursuant to the Agreement (together, the Credit Documents”).

All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined are used herein as defined in the Agreement.

In rendering this opinion, we have examined each of the following documents:

 

(1) the Escritura de Constitución and Estatutos of the Borrower;

 

(2) the Agreement;

 

(3) the form of the note attached to the Agreement as Exhibit B;

 

(4) the form of the Recognition of Debt attached to the Agreement as Exhibit C; and

 

(6) public deeds dated [•], granted before the notary public of Santiago [•], containing powers of attorney to the General Manager of the Borrower for the execution of the Agreement.

 

J-1


In addition, we have examined and relied on originals or copies of all such corporate records of the Borrower and such other instruments and certificates of public officials, officers and representatives of the Borrower, and we have made such investigations of law as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinions expressed herein.

In rendering the opinions expressed herein, we have assumed and have not independently verified (i) that the signatures on all the documents that we have examined are genuine; (ii) that all documents submitted to us as originals are authentic and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies; (iii) that each Credit Document has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each party other than the Borrower, and that each such party (other than the Borrower) has full power, authority and legal right to enter into each such documents and to perform its obligations thereunder and (iv) that the Agreement has been duly executed and delivered pursuant to the laws of the State of New York and is a valid and binding agreement of each party, enforceable against each such party in accordance with its terms under the laws of the State of New York.

The opinions expressed in this letter are limited to questions arising pursuant to the laws of Chile and we do not express any opinion on any question arising under the laws of any other jurisdiction.

Now, based upon the foregoing, but subject to the qualifications expressed below, we are of the opinion that:

 

1. The Borrower is a banking stock corporation (sociedad anónima bancaria) duly organized and validly existing under the laws of Chile and has the requisite power, authority and governmental approvals, licenses, authorizations or consents to own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as presently conducted.

 

2. The Borrower has full corporate power and authority to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under the Credit Documents and to consummate each of the transactions contemplated thereby, and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance by it of the Credit Documents.

 

3. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of the Credit Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby (a) are within the Borrower’s corporate powers, (b) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action, (c) do not contravene the Borrower’s constitutive documents or organizational documents, (d) do not violate the laws of Chile applicable to the Borrower and (e) will not require the creation or imposition of any Lien prohibited by the Agreement.

 

4. The Credit Documents are the legal, valid and binding agreement of the Borrower, enforceable in accordance with their terms. Such documents contain no provisions which are contrary to Chilean laws regulations or public policy, as presently construed by Chilean Courts. The Instruments, when executed, will constitute (i) legal, valid and binding pagarés (promissory notes) or reconocimiento de deuda (recognition of debt), as the case may be, under the laws of Chile, which is their governing law and, (ii) títulos ejecutivos (executive instruments) in Chile (upon payment of the stamp taxes in the case of the New Notes) for the payment of the Loans documented thereby and will entitle the holder of the New Notes or the creditors under the recognition of debt, to an acción ejecutiva (summary proceedings) for the enforcement thereof, as long as such Instruments are executed before a Notary Public. Notwithstanding the commencement of such acción ejecutiva (summary proceedings) in Chile on any such Instruments, the holder or the creditors of such Instruments, as the case may be, would be entitled concurrently to bring an ordinary action in Chile on the other Credit Documents for collection of other sums (without duplication of any amounts subject to the acción ejecutiva) owed to such holder or creditor, as the case may be, under the Credit Documents.

 

J-2


5. No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority in Chile is required to be obtained or made for the due execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of any Credit Documents, except for, in respect of the Loans, the notification to the Banco Central de Chile of any Loan made under the Agreement pursuant to Section A.1 of the Chapter XIII of the Compendium of Foreign Exchange Regulations of the Banco Central de Chile, which must be made no later than the date of the Borrowing, and of the amendments under the Agreement, which must be made within the first ten days of the month subsequent to the month of execution of the Agreement. However, a breach by the Borrower of this reporting requirement does not affect the ability of the Borrower to comply with its payment obligations under the Credit Documents or the rights of the Lenders under the Credit Documents; and the reporting to the Chilean Internal Revenue Service (Servicio de Impuestos Internos) (x) of the taxes withheld for the purpose of withholding taxes on all interest, and (y) of any relevant payment of fees and commissions made pursuant to the Credit Documents to non-domiciled or non-resident individuals or entities on the dates determined by the Servicio de Impuestos Internos for each fiscal year.

 

6. All acts, conditions, and things required by the laws of Chile in force at the date hereof to be done, fulfilled, and performed in order (a) to enable the Borrower lawfully to enter into the Credit Documents and to exercise its rights under and perform and comply with the obligations expressed to be assumed by it in the Credit Documents, and (b) to ensure that the obligations expressed to be assumed by the Borrower in the Credit Documents are legal, valid, and binding, have been done, fulfilled, and performed.

 

7. The choice of New York law to govern the Credit Agreement is, under the laws of Chile, a valid, effective and irrevocable choice of law.

 

8. In any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to the Agreement in any court in Chile, such court should recognize and give effect to the governing law provision of such document, which provides that the Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York.

 

9. There is no tax, levy, impost, deduction, charge or withholding imposed by Chile or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein either (i) on or by virtue of the execution or delivery of the Credit Documents or any other document to be furnished thereunder; (ii) on any payment to be made by the Borrower, except that (x) a stamp tax will be payable in respect of the principal amount of any New Loan and the B Term Loans, as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement, at a rate of 0.4% on the principal amount thereof (the “Stamp Tax”), and (y) payments of interest made by the Borrower from Chile will be subject to Chilean withholding tax at an effective rate of 4.0% if paid to the Administrative Agent or to any of the Lenders and Global Coordinators that is a foreign or international banking or financial institution, or to a 35% withholding tax to the extent paid to any other person or entity domiciled or resident abroad, while other payments under the Credit Documents (excluding principal) made by the Borrower from Chile may be subject to Chilean withholding tax at an effective rate of up to 35 %. The gross-up provisions contained in the Agreement are valid and binding under the laws of Chile.

 

10. Except for the payment of the Stamp Tax with respect to the New Notes, the Credit Documents are in proper legal form under the laws of Chile for the enforcement thereof in accordance with their respective terms in the courts of Chile and the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit

 

J-3


Documents may be enforced (by judgment and levy) in accordance with their respective terms in a proceeding at law in any competent court in Chile; provided that such Credit Documents are originally in the Spanish language or have been translated into the Spanish language by an approved translator (which translation would be effected at any time prior to such document being so admitted into evidence).

 

11. The obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Documents may be enforced (by judgment and levy) in accordance with their respective terms in a proceeding at law in any competent court in Chile. In order to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility into evidence in Chile of any Credit Documents, it is not necessary for such document to be filed or recorded with any court or authority in Chile nor that any tax (other than the Stamp Tax) be paid on or in respect of such document; provided, however, that for the enforceability or admissibility into evidence of the Agreement, such document would have to be translated into the Spanish language by an approved translator (which translation could be effected at any time prior to such document being so admitted into evidence).

 

12. The claims of the Administrative Agent, the Global Coordinators and the Lenders against the Borrower under each of the Credit Documents rank at least pari passu in priority of payment and in all other respects with the claims of all its other unsecured and unsubordinated creditors save those whose claims are preferred solely by the laws of Chile relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, or other similar laws of general application.

 

13. It is not necessary under the laws of Chile (a) in order to enable the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Global Coordinators to enforce any Credit Documents or to exercise its respective rights or remedies under such document or (b) by reason only of the execution, delivery or performance of the Agreement, that the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Global Coordinators be licensed, qualified or entitled to carry on business in Chile.

 

14. The Borrower is subject to civil and commercial laws with respect to its obligations under the Credit Documents and the execution, delivery and performance by it of its obligations under such documents constitute private and commercial acts (jure gestionis acts) rather than public or governmental acts (jure imperii acts). Neither the Borrower nor any of its properties has any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) under the laws of Chile.

 

15. Under the laws of Chile, (a) the submission to the jurisdiction of the State of New York or Federal courts of the United States sitting in the Borough of Manhattan and any appellate court from any thereof, and (b) the waiver of any objection to the laying of venue of certain actions, suits or proceedings, are in each case, valid and binding on the Borrower.

 

16. A final and conclusive judgment for the payment of money rendered by a competent State of New York or Federal court of the United States sitting in the Borough of Manhattan should be recognized in the courts of Chile and such courts should enforce such judgment without any retrial or re-examination of the merits of the original action under the following circumstances:

 

  (a) subject to subclause (c) below, if there is a treaty between Chile and the United States with respect to the enforcement of foreign judgments. Currently, there is no such treaty;

 

J-4


  (b) subject to subclause (c) below, if there is no treaty, but either (i) the judgment is enforced as a result of reciprocity in the enforcement of judgments by State of New York or Federal courts of the United States sitting in the Borough of Manhattan (i.e., the relevant New York court would enforce a judgment of a Chilean court under comparable circumstances) or (ii) it cannot be proved that there is no reciprocity in the enforcement of judgments by such New York courts; provided, however, that such judgment will only be enforced if it has not been rendered by default within the meaning of Chilean law. We are of the opinion that the judgment would not be considered to have been rendered by default if personal service of process is made upon an agent of the Borrower assuming that such manner of service is valid under the applicable law, unless the Borrower is able to prove that due to other reasons it was prevented from assuming its defense. Under Chilean law, the service of process by means of mailing copies to the Borrower may be deemed not effective to cause proper service of process and, consequently, any judgment rendered in a legal proceeding in which process was served by means of mailing copies to the Borrower may be then effectively contested by the Borrower in Chile; and,

 

  (c) such judgment is not contrary to the public policy of Chile or Chilean jurisdiction, and does not affect in any way any property located in Chile, which are, as a matter of Chilean law, subject exclusively to the jurisdiction of Chilean courts.

Pursuant to the rules described above, the courts in Chile should enforce a final and conclusive judgment for the payment of money rendered by a competent State of New York or Federal court of the United States sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, in accordance with the procedure contemplated for the enforcement of final and conclusive foreign judgments in the Chilean Civil Procedure Code (“exequator”).

With respect to public policy and the enforcement of the obligations of the Borrower, and foreign judgments with respect thereto, and subject to the foregoing paragraph, we are of the opinion that, generally, any provision purporting to authorize conclusive determinations by any person whether for interest, indemnities, costs or otherwise may not be enforceable if they are based upon a determination which is so arbitrary and unreasonable as to be contrary to basic and fundamental principles of Chilean law or public policy. Also, disclaimers of liability will only be enforceable if there is no gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the party making such disclaimer.

Finally, we express no opinion as to the enforceability in Chile of a judgment rendered outside Chile against the Borrower, obtained in any court other than any State of New York or Federal court of the United States sitting in the Borough of Manhattan.

 

17. The Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Global Coordinators will not be deemed resident, domiciled, or carrying on business in Chile by reason only of the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Agreement.

The foregoing opinions are subject to the following additional qualifications:

 

(A) The opinions expressed in this opinion letter are subject to the effect of (i) applicable bankruptcy, liquidation, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

 

(B) The opinions expressed in this letter are limited to questions arising under the laws of Chile, and we do not purport to express an opinion on any question arising under the laws of any other jurisdiction.

 

J-5


(C) This opinion is effective only as of the date hereof. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to advise you of any development or circumstance of any kind including any change of law or fact that may occur after the date of this letter even though such development, circumstance or change may affect the legal analysis, a legal conclusion or any other matter set forth in or relating to this letter. Accordingly, if you intend to rely on this letter at any time after the date hereof you should seek the advice of counsel as to the proper application thereof at such time.

 

(D) We are furnishing this opinion to you solely for your benefit and this opinion may not be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to, or relied upon by, any person or entity other than the addressees hereof and your permitted successors and assigns, or for any other purpose, without our prior written consent in each instance, except that you may disclose this opinion to: (i) any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over you, if required by any law or regulation; (ii) your legal advisors, auditors, supervisors or regulators; or (iii) a prospective new lender or sub-participant to the Agreement.

Sincerely yours,

Philippi, Yrarrázaval, Pulido & Brunner Ltda.
