4 QUARTERLY SUMMARY AquaChile reported accumulated sales of US$337.9 million on June 30, This is a 15% decrease in comparison to the same period in 2014 (Δ US$59.6 million). At operating level the EBITDA pre fair value adjustment accumulated for June 2015 (this is before the value adjustment of the fish biomass at fair value) achieved US$-13.8 million, which is less than the US$54.2 million reported during the same period the previous year. The company presented a loss of US$47.6 million in June 2015, this is lower than the US$6.1 million profit reported during the same period the previous year. The exporting price scenario for 2015 in comparison to the same period the previous year was unfavorable for all of species, where the prices dropped for Sea trout (Δ 26%), Atlantic salmon (Δ - 20%), Pacific salmon (Δ 10%) and Tilapia (Δ 4%). In spite of the lower values of the sales reported for the first semester, the farmed fish biomass has presented low mortalities and the harvest weight is good in all the species. 04

5 QUARTERLY SUMMARY The Company s consolidated sales were a total of US$145.7 million during the 2Q15, which represents a 15% decrease in comparison with the valued sales reported for the 2Q14. It is true that during the second quarter there was a decrease in the sales price of all the species and a decrease in the physical sales of Pacific salmon (Δ - 68%), Sea trout (Δ - 11%), and Tilapia (Δ - 3%) in comparison to the same period the previous year. This could not be compensated by an increase in the physical sales of the Atlantic salmon (Δ + 50%). The consolidated EBITDA reached US$-19.0 million during the 2Q15, in comparison to the US$15.0 million reported for the same period This is due to the lower margins in all the species sold by the company, mainly explained by the low exporting prices. AquaChile reported a US$35.9 million loss during the 2Q15, in comparison to the US$5.0 million loss reported during the same period the previous year. The main reason for this decrease was the low margin reported for all the species and a recognition of the loss for net effect of valuation of the biomass at fair value of US$-21.1 million. This includes a provision of US$-9.4 million for lower disposal value at harvest of the biomass that is currently in the water (deterioration test), due to the low international price situation. Their projected costs have been compared against the projection of the market prices. The Company s net financial debt totaled US$259.3 million for the 2Q15, showing a US$2.2 million increase at the close of the 4Q14. 05

Source: AquaChile The Sales Revenue for the quarter reached US$145.7 million, which is less than the US$171.7 million reported during the same period In fact, the sales revenue for the finished product of Pacific salmon decreased 81% (Δ - US$11.6 million), the Sea Trout by 40% (Δ - US$16.6 million) and Tilapia by 11% (Δ - US$1.6 million). There has also been a 19% decrease in the Other Sales (Δ - US$6.6 million). Even though the sales reported for the Atlantic salmon increased 16% (Δ - US$9.2 million) and the fish feed sales increased 13% (Δ - US$1.2 million) it could not compensate the above. 1 This includes selling the finished products of third parties, organic wastes, eggs, smolts, processing for third parties and laboratory and genetic services. 06

9 ANALYSIS OF RESULTS Consolidated EBITDA pre Fair Value adjustments for the 2Q15 2 (*) reached US$-19.0 million, in comparison to the US$15.0 million of the same period the previous year. The main reason for this decrease was the lower exporting prices. That is why the EBITDA margin (EBITDA over the revenues) reported during the 2Q15 is -13.0%, in comparison with the 8.8% reported during the same period The company recognizes a US$-21.1 million loss during the second quarter 2015 for the Net Effect of valuing the biomass at fair value, which is less than the US$-12.5 million loss reported during the 2Q14. The reasons for this are mainly: i) recognition of an adjustment by valuing the fish biomass in the water at US$-25.1 million 3, this is less than the US$+2.6 million reported for the same period the previous year, mainly due to the lower market prices observed for the Salmon and Sea Trout (See Note 10 Biological Assets); and ii) reporting a US$-9.4 million provision for less value of harvest for the biomass that is currently in the water (deterioration test). These projected costs have been compared to the projected market prices. This provision was not necessary to do during the second quarter the previous year. This was partially compensated by, iii) the report of a higher cost due to the effect of valorizing at fair value the harvested and sold biomass during the period at US$+12.6 million, which is higher than the high cost of US$-13,3 million reported for the same period the previous year. This is mainly due to the negative difference presented between the prices that the biological assets of the Atlantic salmon and Sea trout were valued with during the first semester 2014; and ii) the net reversal provision for lower costs of the finished product carried out during the period of US$+0.7 million, this is higher than the US$-1.8 million provision carried out during the same period the previous year. 2 (*): In order to measure financial performance under the IFRS, AquaChile used the EBIT pre Fair Value adjustments parameters (before adjusting the revalue of the fish biomass at fair value). The fair value adjustments of the fish biomass come from a regulation under the IFRS to value the biomass at a fair value. Changes in the price and composition of the biomass during the period can have an impact on its value. AquaChile reported its EBIT before the fair value adjustments to show the performance of its operations during the period. It is important to emphasize that the fish biomass that is being reared and is now at a commercial weight is valued at fair value in accordance to the IFRS and for the effect AquaChile considers the market price, which is obtained for the sales most recently made by the company for the previous month and/or conservatively the price that was observed in the market that could be applied to future sales. Furthermore, AquaChile considers the product that is mainly sold by the company and where there does not exist a niche allowing the company to obtain higher revenues. The company uses the fillet Trim D of Atlantic salmon and the HG (Headed and Gutted) for sea trout and Pacific salmon. It is important to point out that among the fish species that it farms and sells, the company has Pacific salmon, which is a highly seasonal species. For this reason, it normally stocks the farm sites between the months of November and March of each year and harvests between the months of October and February when the fish reach the optimal commercial weights. However, many times the fish that are being reared reach an average weight that is higher than 2.5 kg WFE at the end of December or the 4th quarter of each year, and in accordance to the company s policies, are classified to be valued at fair value, generating an effect on the results due to the natural growth of the biomass. For the fish that have a lower weight than what is established for applying the fair value, the accumulated cost is considered at the end of the year. Furthermore, the company carries out a deterioration test on the biomass that are in the water that are to be harvested when there are adverse situations that could occur that might affect. 3 Includes US$ - 8,3 million change in the fair value of the on-growing biomass as of June 30,

On its part the EBIT Pre FV Adj. showed a US$-15.0 million loss in comparison to the US$-1.2 million reported during the same period At unit level, the EBIT Pre FV Adj. / Kg WFE reached US$-1.10 / Kg WFE (in comparison to the US$-0.13 / Kg WFE for the same time the previous year). The main reason for the decrease observed in the margins is the decrease in the exporting price, which was partially compensated by a decrease in the sales cost.

As for the EBIT Pre FV Adj., it presented a US$-9.5 million loss in comparison to the US$+4.9 million reported for the same period At unit level, the EBIT Pre FV Adj. / Kg WFE reached US$-1.59 / Kg WFE (in comparison to the US$+0.73 / Kg WFE the same time last year). The observed decrease in margins is mainly explained by the decrease in the exporting price and slightly because of the increase in the sales cost in comparison to the same period PACIFIC SALMON SALES VOLUME TON WFE % % SALES MUS$ % % AVERAGE PRICE US$ / KG WFE 3,31 5,40-39% 4,33 4,81-10% 4,76 EBIT MUS$ % EBIT / KG WFE US$ / KG WFE -0,85 1,36-0,37 0,67-44% 0,84 The Pacific or Coho Salmon business saw an 81% (Δ - US$11.6 million) decrease in its income during the 2Q15 in comparison with the same period 2014, due to a 68% decrease in its sales volume ( - 1,819 WFE tons) and a 39% decrease in the sales price. For its part, the EBIT Pre FV Adj. demonstrated a US$-0.7 million loss, in comparison to the US$+3.6 million reported for the same period At unit level, the EBIT Pre FV Adj. / Kg WFE reached US$-0.85 / Kg WFE (in comparison to the US$+1.36 / Kg WFE the same period the previous year). The observed decrease in the margins is mainly explained by the decrease in the exporting price.

12 ANALYSIS OF RESULTS Operating Costs, saw a total of US$156.4 million in the quarter, 6% higher than the levels reached for the 2Q14. This is explained by the increase in the total exported volume as also the increase of sales costs for the Sea trout and Tilapia. Furthermore, if one compares operating costs (measured as a percentage over sales), this reached 107.3% of revenues, 22 percentage points over the reported percentage for the 2Q14. THE NET FAIR VALUE ADJUSTMENT OF THE BIOMASS Fair Value of the biological assets of the year: The natural growth effect of the fish biomass being reared expressed by its reasonable value at the close of each period (the sales prices minus the estimated costs at the point of sale), is recognized in accordance to the assessment done at each farm site and is based on the existing fish biomass at the close of each month. The details include the total number of fish being reared, their estimated average weight and the cost of the fish biomass. The value is estimated in the calculation according to the average weight the biomass has, multiplied by the value per kilogram seen at market price. The market price is obtained from the international price index or if not from the most recent sales made by the company. The higher or lower resulting value is reported in the Income Statement, under the concept Fair Value of the biological assets of the year. This concept had a US$-34.5 million loss during the 2Q15, in comparison to the US$+2.6 million profit reported for the 2Q14. This concept can be broken down in the following manner: i) US$-25.1 million (US$2.6 million reported for the 2Q14) corresponds to Value adjustment for the fish biomass being raised ; and ii) US$-9.4 million (US$0 million for the 2Q14) correspond to the lower value of the harvesting the biomass currently being raised, which does not affect the fair value, these projected costs have been compared with the projected market prices. On its part the higher cost of the part that was harvested and sold taken from this revaluation is reported in the Income statement under the concept Fair Value of the harvested and sold biological assets which saw a US$+13.3 million profit for the 2Q15 (US$-15.0 million for the 2Q14). This is broken down the following way: i) US$+12.6 million (US$-13.3 million during the 2Q14) correspond to the higher cost for fair value of the harvested and sold biological assets; and ii) US$+0.7 million (US$-1.8 million in the 2Q14) correspond to the provision of the lower net value of the finished products carried out in the period. The net value of both revaluation effects are expressed in the line of Net effect of the fair value adjustment of the biomass which reached US$-21.1 million for the 2Q15. This is lower than the US$-12.5 million reported for the 2Q14. (To see more details see Note 10 of the Financial Statements: Biological Assets). Other Operating Costs and Expenses showed a 13% decrease in comparison with the same period of the previous year. In effect, the distribution costs presented a 16.0% decrease due to a decrease in storage and shipping expenses during the period. The Administration expenses presented an 8.4% decrease. Non-operating results showed a US$-3.0 million loss for the quarter, in comparison with the US$-2.2 million loss for the same period the previous year. Expense for Income Tax presented a US$15.0 million provision which is a positive comparison with the US$1.7 million the same period the previous year. The company presented a US$-35.9 million loss for the 2Q15 in comparison to the US$-5.0 million loss reported for the same period

This is mainly explained by: i) a US$51.8 million decrease in the Trade and other receivable accounts, bank accounts mainly associated with the sale of the 2Q15 in comparison to the 4Q14; ii) a US$26.5 million decrease in the Current Biological Assets, associated to the harvesting and selling of salmon during the first semester of the year, to a lower valuation for fair value of the biomass that is being raised reported in June 2015 in comparison to December 2014 and the US$-9.4 million provision for the lower value of harvesting the biomass that is currently being raised, and that has not been valued at fair value; iii) a decrease in the Accounts Receivable of affiliated companies for US$12.1 million; and iv) a US$5.0 million decrease in the account Cash and Cash Equivalent. Non-current assets presented a 5.1% increase (Δ + US$21.2 million) in comparison with the observed numbers of the 4Q14. This is mainly explained by, i) a US$7.6 million increase in the Accounts Receivable with the non-current affiliated companies associated to their reclassification from short to long term; and ii) a US$18.2 million increase in the Assets of the Deferred Taxes. All of the above was partially compensated with a US$5.6 million decrease in the account Properties, Plants and Equipment. The Current Liability showed a 2.1% decrease (Δ US$7.0 million) in comparison with the observed numbers of the 4Q14. The above is explained by the US$21.4 million decrease in the Trade accounts payable and other accounts payable ; and ii) a US$1.2 million decrease in the Accounts payable to current 13

14 BALANCE SHEET related companies. The above is partially compensated by the US$15.0 million increase in the account Other current financial liabilities mainly due to reclassifying the debt that is due in the next twelve months from the long to short term. The Non-current Liability showed an 11.8% decrease (Δ - US$17.6 million) in comparison with the numbers observed for the 4Q14. This is explained by a US$17.8 million decrease in Other Fi- nancial Non-Current Liabilities associated to the reclassifying of debt from long to short term. Total Equity (including the non-controlling interests) of the company, saw a US$47.6 million decrease in comparison to December 2014, explained by the US$47.6 accumulated loss during the period.

16 COVENANTS AND PRODUCTION INDICATORS FINANCIAL COVENANTS In June 2015, Empresas AquaChile S.A. agreed with a group of creditors bank leaded by Rabobank the main terms and conditions of a new syndicated loan. To refine the above Empresas AquaChile S.A. and an affiliate on June 23, 2015 agreed with their current creditor banks to extend for thirty days the quotas of the tranches of the bank debt of the company that expired on this day for the amount of US$122,539,638, agreeing to pay in accordance to the stipulated time limit and more on the same day to pre-pay the total of the rest of the debt that expired in The new syndicated loan on the date that this is published has already been refined considers a financing of up to US$290,000,000 agreed to pay the totality of the bank debt of US$246,289,638 on July 23, Having generated this additional loan allows the necessary flexibility to assure an efficient and more effective admi- nistration of the stocks in the present business cycle, including the existing bilateral feasibility with the DnB Bank, agency in Chile, under the same loan structure; reducing the number of creditor banks; y later, within the stipulated time limits to restructure the totality of the company s debt to long term in a more favorable market conditions with the prospect of a more stable international market. Even though the company still keeps an inforce credit contract of June 23, 2011 on June 30, 2015, new financial obligations were decided on by signing a new credit contract on July 23, 2015 calculated over the Consolidated Financial Statements of Empresas AquaChile S.A. on June 30, 2105, and on March 31st, June 30th, September 30th and December 31st of the following years which refer to the levels of Equity ratio, Net Financial Debt, Adjusted (NIBD Adjusted) / Adjusted EBITDA, Liquidity, and levels of Maximum Debt, just as it is seen in the following: Financial Covenants* 2q-15 3q-15 4q-15 1q-16 2q-16 3q-16 4q-16 EQUITY RATIO 1 42,5% 42,5% 42,5% 42,5% 42,5% 42,5% 42,5% NIBD ADJUSTED / EBITDA ADJUSTED 2 5,75X 7,25X 7,5X 5,0X 4,5X 4,5X 4,5X LIQUIDITY 3 1,2X 1,2X 1,2X 1,2X 1,2X 1,2X 1,2X MAXIMUM DEBT (M US$) (1) Equity Ratio: Ratio between the consolidated cash accounts called Total Equity and Total Assets ; (2) NIBD Adjusted / EBITDA Adjusted: the result of adding the following accounts to the consolidated balance: /a/ Other financial liabilities, current; plus /b/ Other financial liabilities, non-current; plus /c/ Liabilities with suppliers with more than 120 days of duration minus /d/ the cash and cash equivalent. All of the above without considering any financial liability, whether current or noncurrent, suppliers with more than 120 days of duration and cash and cash equivalent of Group ACl and Alitec S.A.. All of the above divided by the EBITDA Adjusted of the last 12 months defined as a result of the following operation: /a/ Total Sales; minus /b/ Sales cost; minus /c/ Administration expenses; minus /d/ Distribution expenses; and plus /e/ Depreciation and amortization expenses, excluding the following consignments /a/, /b/, /c/, /d/ and /e/ of the Group ACl S.A. and Alitec S.A. (3) Liquidity: All of the current assets divided by the total of the current liabilities, excluding from this last one the sum of the indebted amounts under the Restructured Obligations, and excluding from the current asset the fish biomass that is not considered in the harvesting plans of the next following twelve months to the corresponding Measurement Date. According to the agreement, the Current Liability exclude the short term portion of the syndicated loan in force on June 30, (4) Maximum Debt: Corresponds to the sum of the following accounts from the Consolidated Balance: /a/ Other financial liabilities, current; and /b/ Other financial liabilities, non-current. Considering that the international exporting prices of the salmonid species have lately maintained a low level, the operating results on June 2015 have been affected and the accumulated EBITDA of the last twelve months have not been sufficient to comply with the NIBD adjusted / EBITDA adjusted covenants.
