CALCULATION OF FILING FEE

US$1,514,521,717.60		US$173,564.19

 

(1)

Estimated for purposes of calculating the filing fee only. The transaction valuation has been calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11(a)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as the product of (i) the average of the high and low prices of American Depositary Shares of TAM S.A. (“TAM”) on the New York Stock Exchange on May 4, 2012 and (ii) 62,428,760, which represents (A) the maximum number of common shares of LAN Airlines S.A. (“LAN”) expected to be offered and sold in the US registered offering and a portion of the LAN common shares that are to be offered and sold to holders of TAM shares that are not located in the United States or US persons (as such terms are defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) pursuant to the exemption provided by Regulation S under the Securities Act that may be resold from time to time in the United States or to US persons, divided by (B) 0.90, which is the ratio at which TAM securities tendered into the exchange offer will be converted into common shares of LAN.

(2)	The filing fee was calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11 under the Exchange Act, and Fee Rate Advisory #3 for fiscal year 2012, issued September 29, 2011, by multiplying the transaction valuation by .0001146.

This Amendment No. 3 to Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed on May 10, 2012 as amended on May 11, 2012 and May 15, 2012, (the “Schedule TO”) by LAN Airlines S.A., a Chilean corporation (“LAN”), and Holdco II S.A. (“Holdco II”), a Chilean corporation formed in June 2011 and indirectly owned by the controlling shareholders of LAN and TAM S.A. (“TAM”). The Schedule TO, as amended from time to time, relates to the offer by Holdco II to acquire all of the (x) American Depositary Shares (“TAM ADSs”) representing the non-voting preferred shares, without par value (“TAM preferred shares”), of TAM and the voting common shares, without par value (“TAM common shares” and, collectively with the TAM preferred shares, the “TAM shares”), of TAM and (y) TAM preferred shares and TAM common shares, in each case other than any TAM shares owned by the controlling shareholders of TAM, in exchange for the same number of shares of common stock, without par value, of Holdco II (“Holdco II shares”), on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this document, the offer to exchange/prospectus (attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(A)) (the “Offer to Exchange/Prospectus”) and the related letters of transmittal attached as Exhibit (a)(1)(B) and Exhibit (a)(1)(C), respectively) (the “Letters of Transmittal” together with this document and the Offer to Exchange/Prospectus, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the “exchange offer”). After Holdco II accepts for exchange the TAM shares and TAM ADSs validly tendered into, and not withdrawn from, the exchange offer and immediately before the settlement of the exchange offer, Holdco II will merge with and into LAN. Pursuant to this merger, LAN will continue to exist as the surviving company of the merger, Holdco II will cease to exist and each Holdco II share (including those shares to be issued pursuant to the exchange offer) will be converted into 0.90 of a common share, without par value, of LAN (“LAN common shares”). As a result, at the settlement of the exchange offer holders of TAM shares and TAM ADSs acquired in the exchange offer will receive 0.90 of a LAN common share for each TAM share or TAM ADS so acquired in the form of American Depositary Shares or Brazilian Depositary Shares representing LAN common shares. The Offer to Exchange/Prospectus forms a part of LAN’s Registration Statement on Form F-4 (Reg. No. 333-177984) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 15, 2011, as amended on February 9, 2012, March 12, 2012, April 3, 2012, April 18, 2012, April 25, 2012 and May 7, 2012 (the “Registration Statement”). The Registration Statement became effective on May 9, 2012.
