INDISA S.A.: Information and Payment Instructions for the Substitutive Tax for Final Taxes (ISFUT)

Dear Participants,

We would like to let you know that regarding the final dividend payment that will be informed and subjected to voting in the General Shareholders' Meeting of Instituto de Diagnóstico S.A. ("Indisa" or the "Corporation"), called for Wednesday, April 20, 2022 (the "Meeting"), the Corporation makes available to those shareholders that wish to make use of it, a procedure to become subject to the Substitutive Tax for Final Taxes benefit paid by the Corporation, for the accumulated profits in the Taxable Profits Funds ("ISFUT") of Indisa, according to the considerations in provisional article 25 of Law 21210 and the instructions provided by the Internal Revenue Service ("SII"), specifically, those contained in Circulars 43 of 2020 and 39 of 2021 and Official Letters 215 of 2021 and 2762 of 2021 and No. 762 of this year. We would like to inform the following:

Considering the above, we wish to inform the following:

1. The ISFUT benefit allows considering the payment of the supplementary global tax as completed to the natural person shareholders of Indisa living in Chile (either directly or through other Corporations) and the payment of the additional tax in the case of shareholders that do not live in Chile, as appropriate, and may be distributed by Indisa, giving preference to other profits and without being subject to the general orders of allocation considered in article 14 of the Tax Income Law.
2. The Corporation paid $5,361,452,205 for the ISFUT, from $44,127,178,641 of undistributed profits until 2016, therefore making $38,765,726,436 available for the allocation of the ISFUT benefit. This early payment and at a special rate will allow offering the shareholders, in this and future dividend distributions, regardless of how they are made, the possibility to choose to make their dividend subject to the ISFUT benefit until spending their amount.
3. According to the instructions from SII, taxpayers can choose to become subject to the ISFUT benefit with a 30% rate on a part or the entire balance of the accrued taxable income generated until December 31, 2016, with a deduction as credit of the paid corresponding first category tax.
4. Considering the above, and regarding the dividend payment agreed to be distributed in the Meeting, shareholders may instruct the Corporation to withhold from their corresponding dividend the payment of the ISFUT for all or part of their shares registered in the Shareholders' Register by midnight of the fifth business day before the payment date. After deducting the credits of the first category tax, the amount withheld will correspond to 12.15% of the corresponding dividend. For this, those shareholders that communicate their decision to obtain profits with their ISFUT paid will authorize that the amount of the dividend withheld on their shares is used for the pro-rated reimbursement of the amount paid by the Corporation for the ISFUT. In this way, these shareholders will be in charge of the payment of the corresponding amount of that tax.
5. Furthermore, those shareholders that decide not to support the payment of the ISFUT made by the Corporation will receive the entire dividend agreed upon in the Meeting without any deductions and will be subject to the general taxation rules for this type of income. The same will apply to those shareholders that have not communicated within the term or, as instructed, their decision to become subject to the ISFUT benefit.
6. If the dividend proposal is approved in the Meeting, the effective amount to be paid per share is $73.2 for those shareholders that do not choose to become subject to the ISFUT benefit and $64.3 for those that do. In any case, the dividends will be paid to all shareholders from May 16, 2022, according to the general dividend payment procedures.
7.
