(ii) the minimum percentage of the outstanding Bank Shares required for the Majority of the Chilean Bank Condition to remain satisfied (it being understood that such minimum percentage shall not be adjusted upwards due to any subsequent reduction in the aggregate percentage of the total outstanding Bank Shares owned, directly and indirectly, by Itaú Parent, Company One and their respective Affiliates); provided that if the Majority of the Chilean Bank Condition ceases to remain satisfied but the Shareholders, the Companies and their Permitted Transferees own at least 45% of the issued voting stock of the Chilean Bank, this provision shall continue to apply for a six month grace period and shall only apply thereafter if the Majority of the Chilean Bank Condition is satisfied at the end of such grace period.

24
which such price per ROFO Share is to be determined (which price must consist of only cash consideration) (the “ROFO Price”) and the other material terms and conditions of the proposed Transfer. The ROFO Notice may require that the ROFO Seller and ROFO Recipient enter into a definitive agreement with respect to any sale of the ROFO Shares to the ROFO Recipient on a date that is no less than thirty (30) days and no later than sixty (60) days after the date of the ROFO Notice.

Promptly after such sale to such Third Party, the ROFO Seller will notify the ROFO Recipient of the closing thereof and will furnish such evidence of the completion and time of completion of such sale and the terms and conditions of such sale as may reasonably be requested by the ROFO Recipient.
(e) Upon exercise by the ROFO Recipients of their rights of first offer under this Section 3.3, to the extent an offer or offers are received by the ROFO Seller for all ROFO Shares, the ROFO Recipients and the ROFO Seller shall be legally obligated to consummate the purchase contemplated thereby and shall use their reasonable best efforts to secure any governmental authorization required, to comply as soon as reasonably practicable with all applicable Laws and to take all such other actions and to execute such additional documents as are reasonably necessary or appropriate in connection therewith and to consummate the purchase of the ROFO Shares as promptly as practicable.

(e) Corp Group Parent, if exercising its right of co-sale hereunder through the sale of Company Shares, agrees to participate in the Transfer by delivering to the Transferring Shareholder at the closing of the Transfer of such Transferring Shareholder’s Transferred Shares to the Transferee, certificates representing the Transferred Shares to be Transferred by Corp Group Parent, duly endorsed for Transfer or accompanied by stock powers duly executed, in either case executed in blank or in favor of the applicable purchaser, or the corresponding executed traspasos, as applicable, against payment of the aggregate purchase price therefor by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(c) If the Dragged Shareholder elects to Transfer Bank Shares pursuant to this Section 3.5, and such Transfer is not made through a tender offer launched by the proposed Transferee, it shall place an order on the Xxxxxxxx Stock Exchange to sell the respective Bank Shares, and the proposed Transferee shall place an order to buy such Bank Shares at a price not less than the proposed purchase price set forth in the Required Transfer Notice; provided that (1) any such sale of Bank Shares shall be implemented through one of the mechanisms available on the Xxxxxxxx Stock Exchange that only allows block sales (and, if both the Dragged Shareholder and the Dragging Shareholder have elected to sell Bank Shares through the Xxxxxxxx Stock Exchange, all such sales shall be combined as a single block sale), and (2) if, as a result of the competitive bidding procedures of the Xxxxxxxx Stock Exchange, the Bank Shares sold by the Dragged Shareholder pursuant to this Section 3.5 are unexpectedly sold over the Xxxxxxxx Stock Exchange to a Third Party other than the proposed Transferee, then the Dragged Shareholder shall have no further obligation under this Section 3.5.

The Shareholders shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary regulatory approvals for such purchase and sale as promptly as practicable.
(c) At the time of payment of the purchase price of the Company Shares set forth in Section 3.6(b), Itaú Parent shall pay Corp Group Parent, as an indemnity for not being able to benefit from the Tax Entitlement it would have received by selling the underlying Bank Shares in the Xxxxxxxx Stock Exchange, a cash amount equal to (i) 50% of any Taxes of Corp Group Parent or its Affiliates arising out of or in connection with the Transfer pursuant to this Section 3.6 that would not have arisen if it sold the underlying Bank Shares in the Xxxxxxxx Stock Exchange and received the applicable Tax Entitlement and (ii) any Taxes of Corp Group Parent or its Affiliates arising out of the application of this Section 3.6(c).
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the number of Company Shares which Itaú Parent is required to purchase pursuant to any Section 3.6 Put Notice shall be reduced by a number equal to (i) the sum of the number of Bank Shares purchased by Itaú Parent in the 15 Business Day period following the date of such Section 3.6 Put Notice (such that Company Two shall be permitted to sell such number of Bank Shares under Section 3.2(d)) and the number of Bank Shares sold by Company Two in the applicable Section 3.6 Tender Offer (as defined below) divided by (ii) the Exchange Ratio. “Section 3.6 Tender Offer” means a tender offer which may be commenced by

If Itaú Parent accepts the price proposed by Corp Group Parent, Corp Group Parent shall be obligated to sell such Company Shares to Itaú Parent at such price. Itaú Parent shall pay the purchase price of the Company Shares transferred pursuant to this Section 3.7 in one single payment in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by Corp Group Parent without withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes (other than as required by applicable Law). The payment of the purchase price and the purchase and sale of the applicable Company Shares shall be consummated no later than ninety (90) calendar days after the relevant notice provided by Corp Group Parent pursuant to this Section 3.7; provided that such closing shall be delayed until ten (10) Business Days after the date that all necessary regulatory approvals for such purchase and sale have been obtained. The Shareholders shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary regulatory approvals for such purchase and sale as promptly as practicable. In the event that Itaú Parent does not accept the price proposed by Corp Group Parent and as a result Itaú Parent and Corp Group Parent do not reach agreement on a sale of such Company Shares to Itaú Parent, then Corp Group Parent shall be permitted to proceed with such Change of Control and Itaú Parent shall be entitled to unilaterally terminate this Agreement during a period of sixty (60) days after receipt of notice of the consummation of such Change of Control given by Corp Group Parent.
SECTION 3.8. Right to Exchange Shares for Shares of Itaú Parent. In the event Itaú Parent issues or sells (each, an “Itaú Parent Equity Transaction”), any Equity Securities (including options or warrants) of Itaú Parent (“Itaú Parent Equity Securities”) to any Person as consideration for or in connection with a transaction or series of transactions involving the direct or indirect investment by Itaú Parent or its Affiliates in Equity Securities or assets of any other Person, including by means of a merger or any corporate reorganization involving the issuance of Itaú Parent Equity Securities, Itaú Parent shall inform Corp Group Parent of such issuance or sale and shall offer to Corp Group Parent the right to exchange for the same type of Itaú Parent Equity Securities. Corp Group Parent shall be entitled to exchange any or all of Corp Group Parent’s and its Permitted Transferees Company Shares (and/or Company Two’s Bank Shares) for such Itaú Parent Equity Securities at an exchange ratio that reflects the relative Fair Values of the relevant Itaú Parent Equity Securities and the Company Shares (and/or Bank Shares) as of the applicable date, as the case may be; provided that if the issuance of any such Itaú Parent Equity Securities to Corp Group Parent would result in IUPAR ceasing to hold more than 50% of Itaú Parent’s voting equity, then Corp Group Parent shall have the right to exchange no more than an amount of Itaú Parent Equity Securities the issuance of which would not result in IUPAR ceasing to hold more
30
than 50% of Itaú Parent’s voting equity. Itaú Parent shall, and shall cause its relevant Subsidiaries to, effect any such exchange no later than ten (10) Business Days after the receipt of any regulatory and corporate approvals required in connection with such exchange. The Shareholders shall cooperate in good faith to complete any such exchange as promptly as practicable and shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary regulatory and corporate approvals for any such exchange as promptly as practicable.
SECTION 3.9. Controlling Shareholder.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Itaú Parent shall have no obligation to purchase Bank Shares or Company Shares from Company Two, Corp Group Parent or any of its Permitted Transferees under this Agreement to the extent such purchase would, in and of itself, require Itaú Parent to make a tender offer for all of the outstanding Bank Shares as a result thereof.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Itaú Parent is not the Controlling Shareholder (as defined in Article 97 of the Chilean Securities Market Act) of the Chilean Bank, prior to consummating any obligation to purchase Company Shares or Bank Shares from Corp Group Parent, Company Two or their Permitted Transferees under any applicable provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 3.6, 5.1 or 6.2) which would result in Itaú Parent being the Controlling Shareholder of the Chilean Bank, Itaú Parent shall commence a tender offer to purchase a number of Bank Shares which would result in Itaú Parent being the Controlling Shareholder of the Chilean Bank for the purchase price provided in such applicable provision of this Agreement and shall in any event satisfy its obligation (whether through the tender offer or a subsequent purchase thereafter) within ninety (90) calendar days. Corp Group Parent shall cause Company Two to tender its Bank Shares into such tender offer and, to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Bank Shares are purchased by Itaú Parent through such tender offer, Itaú Parent shall be deemed to have purchased such Bank Shares in satisfaction of such applicable provision of this Agreement (it being agreed and understood that any applicable obligations of Itaú Parent to sell such Bank Shares back to Corp Group Parent or Company Two shall not be adversely affected by this Section 3.9(b)).
SECTION 3.10. Tax Benefit Allocation.
(a) The Shareholders hereby acknowledge that (i) before the Chilean Effective Time certain Bank Shares owned by the Companies had, either totally or partially, the exemption on capital gains set forth in Article 107 of the Chilean Income Tax Law entitling the holder of such Bank Shares to transfer them free of Chilean capital gains tax (the “Tax Entitlement”) and (ii) the Tax Entitlement remains in the Bank Shares held, directly or indirectly, by the Companies.
(b) The Shareholders (i) agree to use reasonable best efforts and cooperate so that the provisions set forth in this Agreement (including without limitation with respect to any Transfer contemplated by Section 3.6) are implemented in a manner that allows the Shareholders to use the Tax Entitlement and (ii) shall consider all mechanisms available at such time to allow a Shareholder to use the Tax Entitlement or mitigate in any way the overall tax result of the implementation of such provisions; provided that such efforts shall neither alter the economic substance of the provisions of this Agreement nor generate a detrimental tax effect on the other Shareholder.

SECTION 5.2. Call Option in Event of Material Breach.
(a) If a Shareholder commits a Material Breach of this Agreement (the “Breaching Shareholder”), then, without limiting any other right or remedy the non-Breaching Shareholder may have, the non-Breaching Shareholder shall have the right to give written notice to the Breaching Shareholder describing such Material Breach and demanding that the Breaching Shareholder cure the Material Breach by fully performing its obligation. If the Breaching Shareholder has not cured its Material Breach within fifty (50) calendar days after receipt of any such notice from the non-Breaching Shareholder (the “Cure Period”), (i) the non-Breaching Shareholder shall have the unconditional right (the “Breach Call Option”), by written notice from the non-Breaching Shareholder to the Breaching Shareholder delivered at any time during the continuance of such Material Breach after the Cure Period (the “Breach Call Notice”), to require the Breaching Shareholder to sell, and the Breaching Shareholder shall have the unconditional obligation to sell and transfer all of its Company Shares (or all the Bank Shares held by the Company in which the Breaching Shareholder and its Permitted Transferees own Company Shares) to the non-Breaching Shareholder at a price per Share (the “Breach Call Price”) equal to 80% of the Market Price as of the date of the Breach Call Notice, and (ii) if the non-Breaching Shareholder is Corp Group Parent, Corp Group Parent shall also have the right (the “Breach Put Option”), by written notice to Itaú Parent delivered at any time during the continuance of such Material Breach after the Cure Period the (“Breach Put Notice”), to sell to Itaú Parent, and Itaú Parent shall thereupon acquire from Corp Group Parent, all of its and its Permitted Transferees’ Company Shares (or all of the Bank Shares held by Company Two) at a price per Share (the “Breach Put Price”) equal to 120% of the Market Price as of the date of the Breach Put Notice. If the Breaching Shareholder cures the Material Breach that gave rise to the Breach Call Option or Breach Put Option prior to receiving a Breach Call Notice or Breach Put Notice from the non-Breaching Shareholder, the non-Breaching Shareholder shall no longer have the right to exercise the Breach Call Option (or the Breach Put Option) in respect of such Material Breach in question. The non-Breaching Shareholder shall have the right to decide whether Company Shares or Bank Shares shall be sold and purchased pursuant to this Section 5.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the non-Breaching Shareholder is Itaú Parent, Itaú Parent may elect to purchase the maximum number of Bank Shares or Company Shares which would allow Itaú Parent to avoid making a public offer for all of the outstanding Bank Shares (and, upon the consummation of such purchase, this Agreement shall automatically terminate).
(b) The non-Breaching Shareholder shall pay the Breach Call Price for the Company Shares or Bank Shares to the Breaching Shareholder in one single payment, in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by the Breaching Shareholder, without withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes (other than as required by applicable Law). The Breaching Shareholder and non-Breaching Shareholder shall cooperate in good faith to complete the sale as promptly as reasonably practicable and shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary regulatory consents for such purchase and sale in a prompt manner.
(c) Itaú Parent shall pay the Breach Put Price for the Company Shares or Bank Shares to Corp Group Parent in one single payment, in cash, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account specified by Corp Group Parent, without withholding or deduction for or on account of any Taxes (other than as required by applicable Law). Corp Group Parent and Itaú Parent shall cooperate in good faith to complete the sale as promptly as reasonably practicable and shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary regulatory consents for such purchase and sale in a prompt manner.

Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.1(c) to the contrary, no Person shall have any liability for any inadvertent immaterial breach of this Section 6.1, subject to the breaching party taking commercially reasonable remedial action promptly upon receiving notice of such breach.
(d) The Shareholders recognize that the covenants in this Section 6.1, and the territorial, time and other limitations with respect thereto, are reasonable and properly required for the adequate protection of the Shareholders, the Chilean Bank and its Subsidiaries. Each Shareholder agrees that such limitations are reasonable with respect to its activities, business and public purpose. The Shareholders agree and acknowledge that the violation of this Section 6.1 would cause irreparable injury to the Shareholders, as the owners of the Chilean Bank Shares, and that the remedy at law for any violation or threatened violation thereof would be inadequate and that, in addition to whatever other remedies may be available at law or in equity, Shareholders shall be entitled to seek temporary and permanent injunctive or other equitable relief without the necessity of proving actual damages or posting bond.

Further, it is the intention of the Shareholders that the provisions of this Section 6.1 shall be enforced to the
36
fullest extent permissible under the Laws and the public policies of the State of New York or any other applicable jurisdiction. If, at the time of enforcement of this Section 6.1, a court holds that the restrictions stated herein are unreasonable under the circumstances then existing, the Shareholders agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area reasonable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area set forth in this Section 6.1.
SECTION 6.2. Dividend Policy; Dividend Put and Call Options.
(a) For each of the eight full fiscal years of the Chilean Bank following the Closing Date (the “Dividend Period”), each of the Shareholders will cause the Chilean Bank to adopt an annual business plan and budget that expressly provides for the management of the Chilean Bank and its Subsidiaries in a manner that has as its primary target, in the following order of priority: (i) first, complying with Optimal Regulatory Capital for such fiscal year (including achieving up to, but in no event exceeding, the Minimum Growth Rate inherent in the definition of Optimal Regulatory Capital), (ii) second (after achieving the objective in clause (i) above), the payment by the Chilean Bank of cash dividends aggregating at least US$370 million for each year during the Dividend Period and (iii) third (after achieving the objectives in both clause (i) and (ii) above), achieving a growth rate of the total assets of the Chilean Bank and the Colombian Bank above the Minimum Growth Rate and other reasonable objectives as determined by the Board of the Chilean Bank; provided that the Board of the Chilean Bank shall have expressly determined in good faith that such growth rate and objectives would not reasonably be expected to cause the Chilean Bank to fail to achieve the objectives in clauses (i) and (ii) in any of the next two fiscal years after such determination and during the Dividend Period.
(b) The Shareholders agree to cause the Chilean Bank Board to (i) cause management of the Chilean Bank and its Subsidiaries to conduct the business of the Chilean Bank and its Subsidiaries in accordance with the annual business plan and budget adopted in accordance with Section 6.2(a) (it being understood the obligation to cause the business of the Chilean Bank and its Subsidiaries to be conducted in accordance with such annual business plan and budget does not constitute a guarantee that the objectives in the Business Plan and Budget will be achieved in any given year), (ii) to discuss on a quarterly basis the adherence of the Chilean Bank and its Subsidiaries to the annual business plan and budget and (iii) if the Chilean Bank Board or such management seeks to deviate from the annual business plan and budget, to permit the Chilean Bank or its Subsidiaries to deviate from the annual business plan and budget adopted in accordance with Section 6.2(a) only if such deviation is itself in compliance with Section 6.2(a), including the priorities set forth therein for any year during such eight-year period following the Closing Date, except to the extent deviations are solely in response to unforeseen changes in economic, business or financial conditions generally affecting the financial services industries in which the Chilean Bank and its Subsidiaries operate and were not contemplated by the annual business plan and budget initially adopted in accordance with Section 6.2(a).
(c) If the amount of the dividends paid in cash by the Chilean Bank is less than US$370 million for any fiscal year during the Dividend Period, the Shareholders will cause, and will cause the Companies to cause, the Chilean Bank and its Subsidiaries to maximize the use of Tier 2 capital, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law to increase its regulatory capital to the extent required to maintain Optimal Regulatory Capital requirements for such fiscal year.
37
(d) The Shareholders shall cause the Chilean Bank to pay the annual Required Dividend before March 31 of each Fiscal Year.

provided, further, that (1) any sale of Bank Shares pursuant to Section 6.2(e)(ii) shall be implemented through one of the mechanisms available on the Xxxxxxxx Stock Exchange that only allows block sales, (2) if, as a result of the competitive bidding procedures of the Xxxxxxxx Stock Exchange, the Bank Shares sold by Itaú Parent or one of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries pursuant to Section 6.2(e)(ii) are sold over the Xxxxxxxx Stock Exchange to a Third Party at a price higher than the Dividend Call Price of such shares, then Company Two shall not have the right to repurchase such Bank Shares and (3) for purposes of determining which Company Shares or Bank Shares are being acquired when Corp Group Parent’s and Company Two’s unconditional right to acquire is exercised pursuant to this Section 6.2(e), a first in/first out methodology shall be used.

The payment of the purchase price and the purchase and sale of the applicable Company Shares or Bank Shares, as the case may be, shall be consummated as soon as practicable and no later than ten (10) Business Days, in each case after the date on which Corp Group Parent notifies Itaú Parent in writing of the exercise of the unconditional right to sell pursuant to Section 6.2(d) or to buy pursuant to Section 6.2(e); provided that such closing shall be delayed until ten (10) Business Days after the date that all necessary regulatory consents for such purchase and sale have been obtained. The Shareholders shall use their reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary regulatory consents for any such purchase and sale in a prompt manner.
SECTION 6.3. Use of the Shareholders’ Brands.
(a) The Chilean Bank’s corporate name shall be “Itaú CorpBanca”.
(b) The Shareholders agree that for so long as Itaú Parent directly or indirectly owns Bank Shares, subject to the corresponding license agreements, CorpBanca and its Subsidiaries shall have a royalty-free, perpetual license to use the Itaú Brand, whether alone or in conjunction with other trademarks. Subject to section 6.3(c) below, all advertising, promotional, marketing, product literature, press releases, public filings or other consumer-facing materials shall be determined by Itaú Parent in its sole discretion.
39
(c) The Shareholders shall cause CorpBanca and its Subsidiaries to exclusively use the Itaú Brand and the Shareholders shall cause the names of the Subsidiaries to be changed to reflect such Itaú Brand as directed by Itaú Parent.
SECTION 6.4. Preapproved Matters.
Corp Group Parent undertakes to consent to (including for purposes of Section 2.8) and affirmatively vote its Bank Shares at any shareholders’ meeting in favor of the approval of (i) a transaction between the Chilean Bank’s stock-broker (corredora) Subsidiary and MCC at such time as MCC is wholly owned by an Affiliate of Itaú Parent, which transaction may be structured as an acquisition of Equity Securities of MCC by the Chilean Bank (followed by a merger such Subsidiary and MCC) and shall involve a valuation equal to the Fair Value thereof, (ii) the execution of the Itaú IB Agreement and other agreements as set forth in the Letter of Intent (“Preapproved Matters”) and (iii) the implementation of Section 6.3.
SECTION 6.5. Strategic Transactions.
(a) Corp Group Parent and Itaú Parent intend to use the Chilean Bank and its Subsidiaries as their exclusive vehicle to pursue business opportunities in the Banking Business in Chile, Colombia, Peru and Central America. As a result, if either Corp Group Parent or Itaú Parent, or any of its respective Affiliates, intends to pursue or develop any new business opportunities in the Banking Business in Chile, Colombia, Peru and/or Central America (each, a “New Business Opportunity”), individually or with third parties, Corp Group Parent and Itaú Parent (as the case may be) shall or, if applicable, shall cause its Affiliate, to notify the other party and shall provide the Chilean Bank with the exclusive right to pursue such New Business Opportunity (through the Chilean Bank and its Subsidiaries) prior to presenting it to or pursuing it individually or with third parties; provided that any business opportunities relating to Investment Banking Activities shall not constitute a New Business Opportunity for a Shareholder who is party to an IB Agreement with respect to the geographic area covered by such IB Agreement. If Corp Group Parent or Itaú Parent does not agree to the Chilean Bank pursuing or continuing to pursue or consummating any particular New Business Opportunity within thirty (30) days following receipt of such notice, the other party shall have the right to pursue and implement such New Business Opportunity unilaterally and not through the Chilean Bank.
(b) Corp Group Parent and Itaú Parent shall use their best efforts to avoid dilution of their respective equity ownership in the Chilean Bank in connection with the implementation of any New Business Opportunity.

If Corp Group Parent agrees to allow the Chilean Bank to pursue and implement such New Business Opportunity but decides not to participate in the capital increase in connection therewith, Itaú Parent will grant Corp Group Parent an unconditional additional call option with respect to the number of Bank Shares or Company Shares (at the election of Corp Group Parent in its sole discretion) that if purchased by
40
Corp Group Parent at such time would restore its direct and indirect ownership percentage of outstanding Bank Shares to its ownership percentage of outstanding Bank Shares immediately prior to such capital increase, with such call option being subject to the terms of Sections 5.1(b)-(e) (except that the strike price thereof shall be an amount equal to the price per Share that Itaú Parent paid in the capital increase plus interest at the Chilean Índice xx Xxxxxx Promedio plus a spread that is not to exceed the lowest spread then being offered by the Chilean Bank to non-governmental borrowers in Chile).
SECTION 6.6. Itaú Parent’s Paraguay and Uruguay Operations. Corp Group Parent and Itaú Parent shall (i) negotiate in good faith the inclusion of their respective businesses in Paraguay and Uruguay as part of the business owned and operated by the Chilean Bank, (ii) shall use their reasonable best efforts to agree on the valuation of such businesses in Paraguay and Uruguay and (iii) if Corp Group Parent and Itaú Parent agree on the valuation of such businesses, such businesses shall be transferred to, and owned and operated by, the Chilean Bank, it being agreed that nothing in this Section 6.6 shall be construed to require Corp Group Parent or Itaú Parent to agree to any transaction that Corp Group Parent or Itaú Parent, respectively, determine in good faith would impair the consummation or anticipated benefits of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or impose an adverse effect on such party.

In this case, and except for the aforementioned exception referred to the distribution of dividends and capital abatement, the Pledgor shall refrain from exercising such rights to a voice and vote, which shall, as of right, be exercised exclusively by Pledgee for as long as the Relevant Event of Default remains uncured, for which purpose, Pledgor irrevocably authorizes Pledgee, such authorization being accepted on behalf of Pledgee by Pledgee’s attorney-in-fact identified in the recitals hereof, to exercise the right to a voice and vote inherent in the pledged Shares under the terms set forth above. Pledgor hereby expressly represents that the power of attorney hereby granted is irrevocable and coupled with an interest in compliance with the provisions set forth in Section 241 of the Commercial Code; because Pledgee is interested in the fulfillment thereof.

Pledgee shall enjoy and may enforce against Pledgor and third parties, all benefits, privileges and preemptive rights granted to pledgees by the law.- SECTION EIGHT: ACCEPTANCE BY PLEDGOR AND ADDITIONAL EARLY FORECLOSURE.

1 | In Chile, defined as “total effective equity” (patrimonio efectivo total) divided by risk weighted assets. The effective equity of a bank is defined as the sum of the following items: i) paid in share capital and reserves or basic capital; ii) the subordinated bonds sold, valued at the price of sale and up to 50% of the basic capital. Six (6) years before the maturity date of such bonds, their value will be reduced in 20% for each year passed; iii) the voluntary provision up to 1,25% of its assets weighted by risk. Voluntary provisions are such provisions that exceed the provisions required by law or Superintendecy rules. In Colombia the “solvency index” (indice de solvencia) is defined as the value of the technic equity, divided by the value of the assets weighted plus the market risk. The technic equity is the sum of the Basic equity plus the Additional equity. The Additional equity can only be 100% of the Basic equity. If the Basic equity is greater than the Additional equity, the Technic equity equals two times the Basic equity. |
2 | Minimum regulatory capital ratio expected to be in line with the one imposed to Banco Santander-Chile and Banco de Chile. |
3 | Includes market risk as established by the Superintendencia Financiera de Colombia: “Decree 1720 of 2001 established that the Market Risk (MR) became mandatory as from January 1, 2002 and optional for previous months. Numbers in this column correspond to 100% (Jan-04). Once the value of exposure to market risk is determined, it shall be multiplied by one hundred ninths (100/9) and the result will be added to the value of the assets weighted by the risk level (Decree 1720 of 2001, article 8 letter b). |
4 | As a condition to authorize the acquisition of Helm, Superintendencia Financiera de Colombia demanded a compromise from CorpBanca Colombia that the merged bank (CorpBanca Colombia- Helm) will maintain a minimum solvency ratio of 11.8%. |

Average Asset Growth Example
1 | In the case of Chile, annual growth rate of nominal gross domestic product for the first and second years of the average sourced as published by the Banco Central de Chile; annual growth rate of nominal gross domestic product for the third year of the average sourced as forecasted by the International Monetary Fund in the World Economic Outlook (published in October of the relevant year) and defined as: (1 + real gross domestic product growth for the relevant year) x (1 + consumer prices growth for the relevant year) – 1. In the case of Colombia, annual growth rate of nominal gross domestic product for the first, second, and third years of the average sourced as reported (in the case of the first and second year of the average) and forecasted (in the case of the third year of the average) by the International Monetary Fund in the World Economic Outlook (published in October of the third year) and defined as: (1 + real gross domestic product growth for the relevant year) x (1 + consumer prices growth for the relevant year) – 1 |
2 | Defined as (1 + real gross domestic product growth for the relevant year) x (1 + consumer prices growth for the relevant year) – 1 |
3 | For Chilean banks, 2013E asset growth rates are annualized as of Sep-2013; for Colombian banks, 2013E growth rates are annualized as of Oct-2013. 2014E growth rates for Chilean and Colombia banks are equal to 2013E growth rates for illustrative purposes. |
