Material
Event
In
conformity with Articles 9 and 10 of the Law 18,045 and Article 147 of Law No.
18,046, Banco Santander Chile informs that in an ordinary Board Meeting held on
May 25, 2010, the Board approved the following operations with related
parties:
1)
|
Modification
to the fee structure the Bank and its subsidiary Santander Corredora de
Seguros Ltda receives from the related entities Santander Seguros
Generales S.A. and Santander Seguros de Vida
S.A.
|
2)
|
A
derivative contract with Banco Santander, S.A. parent company of Banco
Santander Chile.
|
Regarding
both operations, the board members Lucía Santa Cruz, Claudia Bobadilla, Mauricio
Larraín, Oscar von Chrismar, Vittorio Corbo, Victor Arbulú, Marco Colodro, Juan
Manuel Hoyos, Roberto Mendez y Roberto Zahler expressed that these operations
contribute to the Bank’s interests and that the terms are in line with market
conditions as stated in the report issued by the Bank’s Audit Committee dated
May 24, 2010.
It is
important to point out that the board member Jesus María Zabalza approved the
operation in numeral 1, but abstained from omitting an opinion on the second
operation, since he is an employee of our parent company and, therefore, an
interested party in the transaction.
Sincerely,
Claudio
Melandri Hinojosa
Chief
Executive Officer
