1 Fourth Quarter 2013 Results Press Release March 19 th, 2014 International risk rating Standard and Poor s BBB Fitch Ratings BBB Domestic risk rating Feller-Rate AA-/1 st Class Level 1 Fitch Ratings AA-/1 st Class Level 1 In accumulated terms, net income was up 90,1%. That was mainly due to higher operating income of US$459 million, partly offset by lower non-operating income. It should be noted that the previous year there was a negative non-recurring effect of US$168 million on net income, related to the higher tax rate in Chile that hit deferred tax liabilities. EBITDA was up 27.1% and amounted to US$1,979 million. Consolidated revenue rose 6.8% to US$ million. Quarterly net income was US$86 million, a 48,1% year-on-year decrease, due to a 196.6% drop in non-operating income and a higher income tax expense. That was partly offset by operating income increasing 94.1%, mainly because of better performance in the forestry and fuels businesses. Consolidated revenue fell 2.0% to US$5,882 million. 4Q 13 Results Conference Call Friday, March 21 st, :00 Hrs. EST (NY time) 12:00 Hrs. (Santiago time) Dial: From EE.UU.: (888) From other countries: 1 (973) ID: Net income was 59.9% down on the previous quarter, mainly due to an operating income decrease of 32.5%. That was because of lower result at Arauco which had a wood pulp sales volume decrease due to maintenance of its mills. The fuels business also had lower result, in part related to lower commercial margins. There was also a drop in non-operating income on account of higher other expenses, related to plant stoppages and trial expenses in the forestry sector, and the closure of productive plants in the fishing business. There was also an important drop in profit of associates and joint ventures. Lastly, there was a higher income tax expense. The highlights of the quarter include: the environmental approval of the MAPA project, the start-up of the Nueva Aldea plywood mill, the agreement to buy panel mills in the United States and the progress made with the Montes del Plata mill. Furthermore, Empresas Copec began a process for the potential divestment of its stake in Guacolda. 4Q 13 3Q 13 4Q 12 Accum 13 Accum 12 Chg. 3Q 13 / 3Q 12 Chg. 13 / 12 Revenues 5,882 6,284 6,002 (2.0%) 24,339 22, % EBIT % 1, % EBITDA* (1.6%) 1,979 1, % Adjusted EBITDA** (27.6%) 2,018 1, % Total profit (57.0%) % Profit attributable to controlers (48.1%) % Profit attributable to minority (11) 28 9 (224.7%) % EBITDA margin 6.7% 8.8% 6.7% 0.0% 8.1% 6.8% 1.3% EBITDA / Net interest expenses % % * EBITDA = Operating Income + Depreciation + Amortization + Fair value cost of timber harvested + Others **Adj.

2 SIMPLIFIED OWNERSHIP STRUCTURE (Laguna Blanca) HIGHLIGHTS OF THE QUARTER Nueva Aldea s Plywood Mill start up In December 2013 Arauco completed the reconstruction of the Nueva Aldea s plywood mill, which had been destroyed after a wildfire in January The new facility has an annual production capacity of 350,000 m 3, and it required an investment of approximately US$ 190 million. Arauco announces the intention of acquiring 3 Sierra Pine Panel mills in the United States In January 2014 Arauco announced the intention of acquiring 3 panel mills from the company Sierra Pine in the USA. The mills are located in Medford, Oregon (MDF production); Martell, California (PBO production); and Springfield, Oregon (PBO production). This acquisition will entail an investment of US$ 107 million, and an estimated US$ 13 million in inventories. This deal is still pending the approval of the authorities. MAPA Project received environmental approval Chilean s environmental entity approved the MAPA project, which includes the construction of a 3rd pulp line in the Arauco mill with an annual capacity of 1.3 million Adt of short fiber pulp, and a cogeneration plant that will be able to generate up to 166 MW of surplus to be delivered to the Interconected Central Grid. The project also includes the closure of Arauco s line 1, currently with an annual capacity of 300,000 Adt of short fiber. Montes del Plata Update Montes del Plata, a joint venture between Arauco and Stora Enso in Uruguay, is giving its best effort to begin the start up process in March As of February it had 98% of completion. Empresas Copec began a process for the potential divestment of its stake in Guacolda Empresas Copec, together with Ultraterra, and with the advisory of BTG Pactual Chile, began a process for the potential divestment of their stake in Guacolda. Both, Empresas Copec and Ultraterra currently own a 25% stake each. AES Gener S.A. holds the remaining 50%. To the date it is unknow whether the divestment will or will not take place, and if materialized, the form and terms in which this would take place is ignored. This project is still under technical and economic feasibility studies, and financing design, among other studies and pending approvals, which need to be completed before being presented to the board. MAPA project will demand an investment of approximately US$ million. 2

3 CONSOLIDATED RESULTS 4Q13 versus 4Q12. Net income in the quarter, net of minority participation, was 48,1% down on that in 4Q12 and amounted to US$ 86 million. That was mainly due to non-operating income dropping 196.6% and a higher income tax expense. That was partly offset by operating income increasing 94.1%. The company s gross margin rose 17.8% amounting to US$773 million, which mainly came from the affiliates: Arauco accounting for US$ 389 million; Copec for US$ 310 million; Abastible for US$ 63 million; Sonacol for US$ 12 million and Igemar for US$ 2 million. The increase in operating income was mainly due to the higher operating income in the forestry and fuels businesses. The forestry business had higher panels, sawn lumber and forestry sales, mainly explained by greater volume and a panel price increase. There was also a drop in unit costs for the production of long- and short-fiber wood pulp, respectively. There were higher commercial margins in the fuels business, along with a volume increase at operations in Chile, Colombia, Panama and Ecuador. The effect of the revaluation of inventories arising from fuel price variations hit margins in the quarter, but this effect was less negative than 4Q12. Non-operating income dropped, largely because of higher operating expenses, mainly at Copec, Arauco and Igemar, lower other income related to the higher insurance compensation received the previous year and lower profit in associates and joint ventures. That was partly offset by lower financial costs. 4Q13 versus 3Q13. Net income was 59.9% down on that in 3Q13. Operating income was down 32.5%. That was largely due to lower income from Arauco, which had lower sales, mainly of wood pulp and panels, on account of a volume decrease, particularly for wood pulp, related to the maintenance of its mills. Operating income dropped in the fuels business, because of lower commercial margins and the first in first out (FIFO) effect which hit margins in the fourth quarter but was positive in the third quarter. That was partly offset by a volume increase in Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and Panama. Non-operating income dropped, due to higher other operating expenses and lower profit in associates and joint ventures. That was partly offset by higher other income. There was also an increase in the income tax expense.

4 2013 versus 2012 (accumulated). Net income accrued up to December was 90,1% up on that in That was mainly because of operating income increasing US$ 459 million, partly offset by lower non-operating income. It should be noted that the previous year there was a negative non-recurring effect of US$168 million on net income, related to the higher tax rate in Chile which hit deferred tax liabilities. The company s gross margin rose 25.1% amounting to US$ 3,202 million, which mainly came the affiliates: Arauco accounting for US$ 1,588 million; Copec for US$ 1,254 million; Abastible for US$ 279 million; Sonacol S.A. for US$ 56 million and Igemar for US$ 36 million. EBITDA was up 27.1 % on the previous year and amounted to US$ 1,979 million. There was higher operating income in the forestry and fuels businesses. The forestry business had increased operating income due to higher sales across all business lines, mainly panels and wood pulp. There was also a drop in unit costs in the wood pulp business. The fuels business had higher margins in the industrial and dealer channels, along with a volume increase in Colombia, Panama and Ecuador and in the dealer channel in Chile. The effect of the revaluation of inventories and the FIFO costing system was slightly worse in Non-operating income fell, mainly because of higher other expenses, essentially related to asset impairment in the fisheries sector and lower other revenues, partly offset by better performance of the related companies Metrogas, Corpesca, Guacolda and Gasmar, along with lower financial costs.

6 CELULOSA ARAUCO Y CONSTITUCIÓN (CONSOLIDATED) 4Q13 versus 4Q12. Arauco had net income of US$ 44 million in 4Q13 that was down on the US$ 80 million in 4Q12. That was mainly due to non-operating income falling US$ 78 million, because of lower other income, largely related to insurance compensations received the previous year and higher other expenses on account of plant stoppage, forest fires and lawsuit costs. There was also an increase in the income tax expense. Operating income increased US$ 82 million, mainly because of higher panel, sawn lumber and forestry sales. Unit costs of long- and short-fiber wood pulp fell 7.0% and 8.1%, respectively. Consolidated revenue rose 55.6%. Wood pulp sales (including energy sales) fell 0.8%. Prices rose 9.7% and volume dropped 4.3% mainly due to maintenance at the Nueva Aldea mill. Global demand remained relatively stable in 4Q13. There were price increases, mainly for long fiber in Asia, a leading market for this kind of wood pulp. Short-fiber wood pulp prices were stable with some specific increases. Global inventories ended up with 27 days for long fiber, the same as at the close of the third quarter, but dropping in October that helped push up prices. Short-fiber wood pulp inventories dropped 3 days in the same period from 42 to 39 days, but this was not reflected in prices with continued relatively high levels. Demand was stable in Asia and the main factor affecting prices is supply, which in the case of bleached long-fiber pulp is lower than expected, partly due to issues with the start-up of new capacity in Russia. Prices rose by over 7% on the third quarter. There was already a supply squeeze for unbleached long-fiber pulp due to the closure of production lines in the first half of the year and the consumption of inventories pushed prices up by more than 10%. Short-fiber pulp prices had a lower increase, largely due to expectation of new production at Montes del Plata and the new Suzano mill in Brazil. The paper market in Asia continued under quite a lot of pressure and producers still generally have quite low margins, except tissue prices that are still high. The situation is more complex in Europe due to little activity. Demand for graphic paper is in decline and there are closures of paper production lines, releasing wood pulp into the market, particularly long-fiber pulp. This has been curtailing price increases. This situation is similar for shortfiber wood pulp and prices remained unchanged. Latin America followed the worldwide trends with the most attractive prices, but it is a relatively small market with little room to increase the sales volume, although it is indeed a relatively important market for unbleached long-fiber pulp. Panel revenues increased 11.8%. Physical sales rose 5.6%, due to the new operations in the United States, and the commissioning of the Jaguariaiva mill in Brazil. Prices increased 0.9%. The plywood sales volume dropped, mainly because of lower production rates.

7 The MDF sales volume increased due to the purchases of the Moncure and Flakeboard mills, along with the start-up of line 2 of the Jaguariaiva mill in Brazil. MDF moldings performed well in 2013, in line with the recovery of the US house construction and refurbishment market. The particleboard volume rose, mainly driven by operations in the United States. Sawn lumber revenues were up 3.7% as a result of volume increasing 8.7%, partly offset by a 1.7% price decrease. The US real estate and construction market recovered in 2013, ending the year with housing starts at 975,000, which was a 17.5% year-on-year increase. Current construction levels are still low compared to the average of the last 10 years. Market performance was quite stable in 4Q13 and there were no major price variations compared to the previous quarter. 4Q13 versus 3Q13. Arauco had net income of US$ 44 million which was US$ 59 million down on the previous quarter, mainly explained by operating income dropping US$ 32 million because of lower wood pulp and panel sales on account of a volume decrease, particularly for wood pulp. There was also higher income tax. Non-operating income dropped US$ 22 million, mainly due to higher other costs of greater expenses for lawsuits, projects and forest fires. That was partly offset by higher other revenue, related to increased profits from selling forestry assets and lands in Chile and Uruguay. Consolidated operating revenue dropped 4.9%. Wood pulp sales were down 9.9%, due to volume falling 11.0% and mainly because of longer maintenance than scheduled at the Nueva Aldea mill and leading to a unit cost increase of 3.3% and 8.1% for long- and short-fiber wood pulp, respectively. Prices rose 4.2%. Sawn lumber revenues remained relatively stable. Panel revenues were down 5.6%, driven by volume and prices falling 4.8% and 1.0%, respectively. The MDF volume dropped because of lower shipments and related to the seasonality of the end of the year. The drop in the particleboard volume was due to lower sales, mainly in the US and Argentine markets late in the quarter versus 2012 (accum.) Arauco had net income of US$ 386 million which was up on the US$ 139 million of the previous year. That is mainly explained by a US$317 million increase in operating income, because of higher sales across all business lines, mainly panels and wood pulp. There was also the negative US$129 million effect in 2012 from the income tax rate increase. Unit costs of long- and short-fiber wood pulp fell 3.0% and 4.3%, respectively. Non-operating income dipped US$79 million because of lower other income and related to lower insurance compensations received in 2013, partly offset by the higher revaluation of biological assets and the sale of non-essential assets. There were also higher other expenses. In operating terms, consolidated revenue climbed 20.2%. Wood pulp sales rose 9.3%, arising from volume and prices increasing 5.2% and 4.1%, respectively. Sawn lumber revenue was up 8.4%, due to volume growing 7.3% and partly offset by a 0.5% price decrease. Panel revenues surged 45.7%, driven by volume increasing 45.2% due to the acquisition of assets in the United States and the production of the new Teno mill in Chile and Jaguariaiva mill in Brazil. Prices remained stable. Production 4Q 12 3Q 13 4Q 13 1,332 1,279 1, Pulp (th. ton) Panels (th. m3) Sawn timber (th. m3) 7

8 COPEC (CONSOLIDATED) 4Q13 versus 4Q12. Copec had net income of Ch$ million in 4Q13, which was down on the Ch$ 19,925 million in EBITDA rose 4.7% and amounted to Ch$ 65,015 million, due to higher commercial margins and increased volume at operations in Chile, Colombia, Panama and Ecuador. The effect of the revaluation of inventories and the FIFO costing system arising from fuel price variations was less negative than in Market share increased to 58.8%. Non-operating income was more negative than the previous year, mainly due to higher other expenses, partly offset by lower financial costs. Physical fuel sales in Chile climbed because of greater volume in the dealer channel with a 5.8% increase, and a 2.3% decrease in the industrial channel. The revenue of Proenergía rose 13.0% in line with Terpel s physical fuel sales increasing 11.7% in Colombia, 4.8% in Ecuador and 21.5% in Panama. 4Q13 versus 3Q13. Net income in the quarter was Ch$14,668 million down on the previous quarter. That difference is mainly explained by lower operating income of Ch$ 13,293 million, related to lower commercial margins and the FIFO effect that hit margins in the fourth quarter and that was positive in the third quarter. That was partly offset by increased volume in the industrial and dealer channels in Chile and at operations in Colombia, Ecuador and Panama. EBITDA fell 18.3%. Non-operating income dropped, mainly due to more negative exchange rate differences and higher financial expenses and other expenses versus 2012 (accum.) Copec s net income accrued up to December was Ch$ 127,896 million, a 92.0% year-on-year increase. The difference was largely due to greater operating income of Ch$ 78,453 million related to higher margins in the industrial and dealer channels and a volume increase in Colombia, Panama and Ecuador and in the dealer channel in Chile. The effect of the revaluation of inventories and the FIFO costing system was more negative in EBITDA rose 33.4%. Non-operating income was less negative than in 2012, because of lower financial expenses, higher other income and more favorable exchange rate differences. There were also greater earnings from discontinued operations related to the sale of Terpel s operations in Chile. Physical fuel sales in Chile grew 1.0%, mainly on account of volume climbing 5.8% in the dealer channel, but it dropped 2.6% in the industrial channel. The physical fuel sales of Terpel in Colombia increased 12.5%, because of the good performance of own service stations, among other factors. In Ecuador and Panama the volume rose 4.3% and 18.2%, respectively.

9 ABASTIBLE (CONSOLIDATED) 4Q13 versus 4Q12. Abastible had a net income increase of 9.8% in 4Q13 amounting to Ch$ 5,597 million. That was largely due to a nonoperating income increase of Ch$ 1,964 million on account of lower other expenses and higher other revenues, along with increased profit from associates and joint ventures. Operating income dropped Ch$1,293 million, due to higher administration expenses and distribution costs. The company s EBITDA was down 25.1% amounting to Ch$10,568 million. The company had sales in Chile of 94 thousand tons of liquefied gas in the quarter, which was a 1.6% year-on-year increase. The sales volume of Inversiones del Nordeste in Colombia grew 1.7% to 47 thousand tons of gas versus 2012 (accum.) Abastible had net income of Ch$ 37,712 million in 2013, which was an increase of 20.8% on the same period in Operating income remained quite stable at Ch$ 48,848 million but non-operating income increased by Ch$ 6,766 million. That was related to higher other expenses and greater profit from associates and joint ventures. The company had sales in Chile of 418 thousand tons of liquefied gas in the quarter, which was 3.5% up on those in Deliveries rose 3.3% and 3.7% in the bottled and bulk channels, respectively. The company had a 0.8% volume decrease in Colombia. 4Q13 versus 3Q13. Abastible s net income was Ch$ 6,870 million down on that of the previous quarter. That was due to a drop in operating income because of lower physical sales in the bottled and bulk gas channels, driven by the winter season of the third quarter. Non-operating income had no major variations. EBITDA was 48.6% down on 3Q13.

10 PESQUERA IQUIQUE-GUANAYE, IGEMAR (CONSOLIDATED) 4Q13 versus 4Q12. Igemar had a net income loss of US$ 22.2 million in 4Q13 against the US$1.7 million loss in That is mainly explained by a non-operating income loss of US$ 25.5 million because of higher other expenses related to the closure of productive plants and lower profit from associates and joint ventures, partly offset by lower other losses. Operating income also dropped, partly offset by lower physical sales of fishmeal, fish oil and frozen seafood, partly offset by higher canned seafood sales. EBITDA fell US$ 9.5 million to US$ 3.4 million. There was an operating income loss of US$ 11.8 million against the US$ 6.5 million loss in Physical fishmeal sales were 4.9 thousand tons, which was 61% down on those the previous year. Physical fish oil sales dropped 20.6% on last year amounting to 1.1 thousand tons and 713 thousand boxes of canned seafood were sold, 8.8% up on the previous year. Frozen seafood sales were 57.2% down on the previous year and amounted to 1.7 thousand tons. The fish processed was 22.8 thousand tons, falling 51.8%. Frozen seafood and fish oil prices climbed 52.3% and 11.5%, respectively. Fishmeal and canned seafood prices fell 15.5% and 6.6%, respectively. 4Q13 versus 3Q13. The company posted a net income loss of US$ 22.2 million in the quarter, which was US$ 14.7 million down on the US$ 8.0 million loss of the previous quarter. That was because of lower nonoperating income of US$ 13.6 million, related to the closure of productive plants this quarter, partly offset by more favorable income from related companies and joint ventures. Operating income fell US$ 7.7 million, partly due to lower sales of frozen seafood and fish oil, and in part offset by higher sales of canned seafood and higher frozen seafood prices versus 2012 (accum.) Igemar had a net income loss of US$ 41.1 million in 2013 against a net income loss of US$ 14.7 million in That is mainly explained by a drop in non-operating income, partly because of higher other expenses related to the closure of productive plants, that accounted for US$ 56.1 million.

11 OTHER AFFILIATES Sonacol Sonacol had net income of Ch$ 4,423 million in 4Q13, which was up on the Ch$ 4,337 million in 4Q12. That was essentially due to higher nonoperating income, partly offset by a drop in operating income due to the lower volume pipelined. In accrued terms, net income was Ch$ 19,132 million, which was up on the Ch$ 16,134 million in That was because of the higher tax rate in 3Q12, partly offset by lower operating and non-operating income. The volume pipelined was 8.1% lower than the previous year. OTHER RELATED COMPANIES Metrogas Metrogas had net income of Ch$ 14,130 million in 4Q13, a 63.8% yearon-year decrease. This was mainly due to lower operating income because of zero sales to power companies in the quarter. That was partly offset by higher non-operating income, related to lower other losses and profit in associates and joint ventures. In accrued terms, net income was Ch$ 108,162 million, 24.2% up on the previous year, and mainly due to higher operating income of Ch$23,997 million on account of higher volume in the residential and industrial channels and increased margins. That was partly offset by lower nonoperating income of Ch$ 14,630 million. Physical sales were down 10.6%, on account of sales to power companies decreasing 43.1%. That was partly offset by increased supply to residential and industrial customers. Corpesca Corpesca had a net income of US$ 4.3 million in 4Q13, which was down on the US$ 12.5 million in 4Q12. In accrued terms, the company had a net income of US$ 16.2 million, which was up on the loss of US$ 1.7 million in Operating income rose US$ 39.6 million because fish oil and fishmeal prices increased 40.5% and 16.2%, respectively. That was partly offset by a lower sales volume. The fish oil and fishmeal sales volumes fell 36.2% and 8.4%, respectively. 606 thousand tons of fish were processed, which was a 10.4% decrease. Guacolda Guacolda had net income of US$ 24.7 million in 4Q13, which was up on the US$ 9.6 million in 4Q12. That was due to higher operating and nonoperating income, related to greater income from exchange rate differences and higher other earnings. In accrued terms, the company s income increased US$ 58.7 million to US$ 77.1 million, largely explained by lower costs than in 2012 when there were greater spot purchases due to the lower availability of its power generating plants. Energy sales climbed 4.5%. Non-operating income increased US$11.3 million, largely because of lower financial costs and a more favorable exchange rate difference.

12 CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS Consolidated current assets dropped 5.3% as of December 31, 2013 on those as of December 31, That difference was principally driven by lower assets qualified as kept for sale related to Terpel Chile, a drop in trade receivables and other accounts receivable, mainly at the subsidiaries Arauco and Copec. That was partly offset by higher cash and cash equivalents, essentially due to the cash flow from operating activities. Long term debt maturities Figures in US$ million 2,153 Non-current assets as of December 31, 2013 were stable on those in There was an increase in property, plant and equipment, mainly at Arauco. That was offset by lower investments with accounting using the equity method, deferred tax assets and intangible assets other than goodwill, partly due to the effect of the higher exchange rate on subsidiaries with accounting in local currency. Current liabilities fell 3.5%, because of a decrease in liabilities included in groups of assets qualified as kept for sale and related to Terpel Chile, partly offset by an increase in other current non-financial liabilities, principally in the parent company and related to dividends payable , balance Non-current liabilities fell 3.5% on those at the 2012 year-end. That was because of a drop in other non-current financial liabilities, other noncurrent non-financial liabilities and lower deferred tax liabilities. The company s shareholders equity ended the quarter 2.0% up on that as of December 2012, highlighting the increase in retained earnings generated by accumulated result, partly offset by lower other reserves due to the effect of the higher exchange rate on subsidiaries with accounting in local currency.

13 CASH FLOW STATEMENT ANALYSIS The operating cash flow as of December 2013 rose 40.3% on the previous year, basically due to higher net charges from the sale of goods and rendering of services and higher other charges for operating activities. There was also lower income tax paid. That was partly offset by higher payments to product and service suppliers, greater other payments for operating activities, higher payments to and on behalf of employees, and lower charges of insurance premiums and benefits, annual installments and other benefits of the policies subscribed. Regarding the investing cash flow, in 4Q13 there was a 61.5% decrease in outlays compared to December There was a drop in cash flows used to buy a controlling interest in subsidiaries and other businesses, related to the purchase of shares of Proenergía in Colombia by the affiliate Copec the previous year. There was also an increase in other charges for the sale of equity or debt instruments in other companies, related to the sale of Terpel Chile by the affiliate Copec. There were lower other payments to purchase an interest in joint ventures. There were also lower purchases of property, plant and equipment, mainly in the forestry business, partly offset by higher purchases of other long-term assets and greater loans to related companies. The financing cash flow dropped 147.8% on 2012 when the net loan amount was positive and related to heavy investment. On the contrary, the net loan amount was negative in 2013, due to debt reduction at the subsidiary Copec.

21 EXHIBIT Adjusted EBITDA Calculation As from 1Q13, Empresas Copec presents an alternative calculation of EBITDA, denominated "adjusted EBITDA". The methodology, adopted by the subsidiary Arauco in 2012, better suits the IFRS definition of the indicator, and has the advantage of including the profits from associates. These may be especially relevant for Empresas Copec, given the importance some associates may acquire. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as follows: 4Q 13 3Q 13 4Q 12 Chg. 3Q 13 / 3Q 12 Accum 13 Accum 12 Chg. 13 / 12 Net Income % % (+)Financial Costs % % (-) Financial Income (11) (11) (11) 0.6% (48) (42) 14.6% (+) Income Tax (7) % % (+) Depr & Amort* % % (+) Fair value cost of timber harvested (-) Gain from changes in fair value of biological assets % % (67) (66) (60) 11.2% (270) (232) 16.3% (+) Exchange rate differences 8 2 (14) % % Adj.
