ARTICLE TEN

INDEMNIFICATIONS.

The representations and warranties contained in Article Five above shall be effective and, consequently, the indemnifications that may be applicable by virtue of falseness or inaccuracy thereof under this Article may be claimed, from the payment of the OPA Price for Shares and the transfers thereof, without prejudice to the provisions of item 10 below; and the representations and warranties contained in Article Six and Seven above shall be effective and, consequently, the applicable indemnifications for falseness or inaccuracy thereof may be claimed from the date of this Agreement.

The Promising Purchaser must indemnify the Promising Sellers in connection with any loss or damage incurred by the latter as a consequence of the falseness or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties contained in Article Seven or for the infringement of any of the obligations undertaken by virtue of this Agreement, other than those contemplated in Article Eleven below. The amount to be indemnified by the Promising Purchaser shall be the amount of the loss or damage actually incurred by the Promising Sellers, with the limitations contemplated by this Agreement, unless this Agreement contemplates any specific penalties as advance appraisal of the damages, in which case such penalties shall be applicable.

The Promising Sellers must indemnify the Promising Purchaser in connection with any loss or damage incurred by the latter or by the Companies as a consequence of the falseness or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties contained in Articles Five and Six or the infringement of any of the obligations undertaken by them by virtue of this Agreement, other than those contemplated in Article Eleven below. The amount of the indemnification must be equal to that of the damage or loss actually incurred by the Promising Purchaser or the Companies, with the limitations contemplated by this Agreement, unless any specific penalties are contemplated hereunder as indemnification, in which case such penalties shall be applied.

Without prejudice to the foregoing, in the event that the infringement consists of any falseness or inaccuracy in the representations and warranties made by the Promising Sellers in Article Five above, or an infringement of the obligations contemplated by Article Three above, the indemnification amount shall be limited to 43.1% of the damage or loss accrued by such falseness, inaccuracy of infringement for FASA, with the limitations contemplated under this Agreement.

4.	In order to determine the amount of damages and losses that must be indemnified pursuant to the provisions of item 3 above, the following must be deducted:

The present value of any tax credit or tax benefit attributable to the deduction of expenses or costs, that may be applicable by virtue of the indemnifiable event, and which decreases the total amount of taxes payable.

The indemnifications received on account of the same or a portion of the same losses which indemnification is pursued. If these indemnifications are received after the payment of the indemnifications applicable under this Article, then the Promising Purchaser must immediately repay them to the Promising Sellers.

The Promising Sellers must be notified in a clear and timely manner of any claim, complaint of litigation that may affect their liability to the Promising Purchaser after the Closing Date, so that the Promising Sellers are able to exercise their discharge and defense, be a party to the proceedings, or directly participate therein as they may deem appropriate. Likewise, the Promising Purchaser must provide, at the sole cost of the Promising Sellers, and upon written requirement of the latter, the collaboration that may be reasonable for such defense. Likewise, the Promising Sellers must provide, at their sole cost, upon written requirement of the Promising Purchaser, the collaboration that may be reasonable for the abovementioned defense. In the event of a default on these obligations by the Promising Purchaser, the indemnification amount payable by the Promising Sellers as a consequence of the losses, or damages accrued by virtue of such claim, complaint or litigation shall be determined by the arbitrator designated under this Agreement, who may proportionally reduce the indemnification that may be applicable once the breach of the Promising Purchaser is taken into consideration.

In all events, the Promising Purchaser must collaborate in the claim that may be filed by any of the Promising Sellers against any third party, with respect to any sum that the Promising Sellers shall have actually disbursed in favor of the Promising Purchaser by virtue of the application of this Article.

6.	No damages or losses derived from any acts or omissions of the Promising Purchaser shall be indemnified. None of the Parties must indemnify indirect, unforeseen damages.

The payment of indemnification shall only be applicable whenever the accrued amount of indemnifications to be paid for losses or damages pursuant to the provisions of item 3 above, exceeds one hundred thousand (100,000) Encouragement Units. The latter amount shall in no event operate as deductible of the amounts to be indemnified, but only as a threshold which, once exceeded, entitles to request the applicable full indemnification. Only the infringements or applicable defaults of an event or sum of related, similar or recurring events, from which losses in an amount of six hundred and fifty (650) Encouragement Units are derived, shall be accounted in the minimum amount to be indemnified. In all events, the maximum amount to be indemnified by the Promising Sellers or the Promising Purchaser pursuant to this Article Ten, for all events that may occur, shall be one million (1,000,000) Encouragement Units, unless the cause for the respective indemnifications is the falseness or inaccuracy of the representations and warranties contained in item 4 of Article Six above, in which case the abovementioned limit shall be increased in up to 100% of the price received by the Promising Sellers.

If any of the Parties considers it appropriate to request an indemnification pursuant to this Agreement, it must notify the same to the other Party in writing, describing to the extent reasonably possible, the grounds and foundations for its requirement, as well as its estimated amount, which shall not affect the right of the Party requesting the indemnification to establish a different amount in the complaint that may be filed by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, all within the terms contemplated by the following item.

All sums to be paid by one Party to the other by virtue of this Article shall be paid within ten (10) Business Days of the date the claim shall have been expressly accepted by the Party to which it shall have been addressed, or in case of rejection or objection, within a term of ten (10) Business Days of the date of notification of the final arbitration award which so provides. The simple delay in the payment of the corresponding sums shall accrue the Maximum Contractual Interest on due amounts.

The liability of the Promising Sellers with respect to the representations and warranties contained in Article Five above shall remain in force for up to eighteen (18) months from the date of execution of this Agreement, except for those indicated in items 1, 9 and 16 of this Article, which shall remain in force for the term of the statute of limitations and, in both cases, shall at all times refer to facts occurred prior to the Closing Date.

10.

If any of the conditions subsequent indicated in Article Eight item 2 subparagraphs c, d, and e above, occurs, and the same is imputable to any of the Parties, the other Party shall be entitled to the loss indemnifications that may be applicable under the rules established in this Article Ten. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Promising Purchaser waives the condition subsequent mentioned in Article Eight item 2, subparagraph d, no indemnification shall be provided on such account.

11.

Notwithstanding that the facts related to the Conciliation Agreement shall have been disclosed, the Promising Sellers hereby agree to indemnify the Promising Purchaser from any damage or loss suffered by FASA or the Promising Purchaser as a result of the Conciliation Agreement, the Free Competition Lawsuit, or any other accusation, investigation, claim or lawsuit related to the facts and actions that resulted in the Conciliation Agreement or the Free Competition Lawsuit, including, without limitation, the eventual civil liabilities for indemnification of losses to which the clients of FASA, the employees or former employees of FASA, or any third party affected by these facts and actions may be entitled. This special indemnification commitment shall fully elapse in the event that the disposal to a third party of FASA, FASA Chile, S.A. or the Business performed by the Companies in Chile is materialized. The liability of the Promising Sellers for the applicable indemnifications according to this item shall be ruled by the provisions of Article Ten; upon the same terms as if it was an infringement of the representations and warranties contained in Article Five, with the following variations:

(i)

The maximum amount to be indemnified for all events that may occur in connection with the facts described above shall be six hundred twenty five thousand (625,000) Encouragement Units. Such maximum amount shall be increased in the balance of the maximum indemnifiable amount indicated in item 7 of this Article Ten, outstanding upon expiration of the term contemplated in item 9 of this Article Ten. That is, if upon expiration of the abovementioned term any indemnifications are requested for only two hundred and fifty thousand (250,000) Encouragement Units, thus with seven hundred fifty thousand (750,000), Encouragement Units remaining of the amount referred to in item 7 of this Article Ten, the Promising Purchaser may request indemnifications for a full value of up to one million three hundred seventy five thousand (1,375,000) Encouragement Units, invoking losses incurred as a result of the facts described in this item 11 of this Article Ten.

(ii)

The liability of the Promising Sellers for the applicable indemnifications according to this item shall remain in force for a term of sixty (60) months from the date of execution of this Promise Agreement.
