Mr. President,

Pursuant to this extension, the term of such agreements is extended from January 1st, 2020 until January 1st, 2022, and the parties may agree before August 31st, 2021 to another extension for two years starting on January 1st, 2022. In the event the latter does not take place, the agreements shall be extended once for a term of one year starting on January 1st, 2022 until January 1st, 2023. The same renewal procedure may be used in the future as the parties may agree from time to time.

 

Along with the foregoing and on the same date, Banco de Chile and Citigroup Inc. entered into the Amended and Restated Trademark License Agreement and the Amended and Restated Master Services Agreement, where they agreed that their tenor will be the same established in the Cooperation Agreement referred above.
