How may an ADR holder participate and vote in shareholders meetings?
Every time there is an ordinary or extraordinary Shareholders Meeting the Company, through the Bank of New York (Depositary Bank), conducts a screening process to determine who the ADR holders are. The Company then initiates the proxy process by sending information regarding the issues that will be discussed during the Meeting along with a proxy card, so that every shareholder may state his/her decision. The proxy card must then be returned to the Bank of New York who, in turn and through a Custodian Bank in Chile, votes at the Shareholders Meeting as instructed by each ADR holder.
