The Reporting Persons anticipate that their percentage ownership in LATAM following the transaction will be no greater that their percentage ownership prior to the transaction.

The Reporting Persons disclaim membership in a group within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Act and Regulation 13D-G thereunder, with any other person, including the Other Shareholders or any member of the Ad Hoc Group, and nothing in this Amendment No. 3 shall be deemed an admission that the Reporting Persons are a member of a group within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Act and Regulation 13D-G thereunder.
