COMMITMENTS COMMITMENTS
(a)Commitments arising from loans

In relation to certain contracts committed by the Company for the financing of the Boeing 777 aircraft, which are guaranteed by the Export – Import Bank of the United States of America, limits have been established for some financial indicators of LATAM Airlines Group S.A. on a consolidated basis. Under no circumstance does non-compliance with these limits generate loan acceleration.

The Company and its subsidiaries do not have credit agreements that impose limits on financial indicators of the Company or its subsidiaries, with the exception of those detailed below:

On July 15, 2024, LATAM Airlines Group S.A., acting through its Florida branch, amended, increased and extended the 2022 revolving credit facility (“Exit RCF”) from US$500 million to US$750 million with a consortium of nine banks led by JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. As of December 31, 2024, this credit facility is undrawn and fully available. Additionally, LATAM Airlines Group S.A., together with Professional Airline Services Inc., a Florida corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of LATAM Airlines Group S.A., issued: (i) on October 12, 2022, as amended on November 3, 2022, a five-year loan (“Term Loan B”) for US$1.1 billion (on October 15, 2024, this loan was fully repaid), (ii) on October 18, 2022, senior secured notes at 13.375% maturing in 2027 (“2027 Notes”) for a total principal amount of US$450 million (on October 15, 2024, this loan was fully repaid), and (iii) on October 18, 2022, senior secured notes at 13.375% maturing in 2029 (“2029 Notes,” together with the 2027 Notes, the “Notes”) for a total principal amount of US$700 million. The Exit RCF, the Term Loan B, and the Notes (collectively, the “Exit Financing”) share the same intangible collateral, consisting primarily of the FFP business (LATAM Pass loyalty program), the cargo business, certain slots, gates, and routes, as well as intellectual property and LATAM trademarks. The Exit Financing contains certain covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, make certain types of restricted payments, incur debt or liens, merge or consolidate with others, dispose of assets, enter into certain affiliate transactions, engage in certain business activities, or make certain investments. Additionally, the agreements include a minimum liquidity covenant requiring the Company to maintain a minimum liquidity level, measured at the consolidated level of the Company (LATAM Airlines Group S.A.), of US$750 million.

On July 15, 2024, LATAM Airlines Group S.A., acting through its Florida branch, amended, increased and extended the 2016 revolving credit facility (“RCF”) with a consortium of nine financial institutions led by Citibank, N.A., guaranteed by aircraft, engines and spare parts for a total committed amount from US$600 million to US$800 million. The RCF includes restrictions of minimum liquidity measured at the consolidated Company level (with a minimum level of US$750 million) and measured individually for LATAM Airlines Group S.A. and TAM Linhas Aéreas S.A. (with a minimum level of US$400 million). Compliance with these restrictions is a prerequisite for drawing under the line; if the line is used, compliance with said restrictions must be reported periodically, and non-compliance with these restrictions may trigger an acceleration of the loan. As of December 31, 2024, this line of credit is undrawn and fully available.

On November 3, 2022, LATAM Airlines Group S.A., acting through its Florida branch, entered into a five-year loan agreement (“Spare Engine Facility”) with, among other institutions, Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank, acting through its New York branch as loan agent, secured by spare engines for a principal amount of US$275 million. As of November 4, 2024, this loan was fully repaid. The loan included minimum liquidity covenants measured at the consolidated level of the Company (with a minimum level of US$750 million) and individually for LATAM Airlines Group S.A. and TAM Linhas Aéreas S.A. (with a minimum combined level of US$400 million).

On October 15, 2024, LATAM Airlines Group S.A. received the funds from its issuance of secured bonds at 7.875% maturing in 2030 (“2030 Notes,” together with the 2029 Notes, the “Notes”) for a total principal amount of US$1.4 billion. The Exit RCF and the Notes share the same intangible collateral, consisting primarily of the FFP business (LATAM Pass loyalty program), the cargo business, certain slots, gates, and routes, as well as intellectual property and LATAM trademarks. Additionally, the agreements include a minimum liquidity covenant requiring the Company to maintain a minimum liquidity level, measured at the consolidated level of the Company (LATAM Airlines Group S.A.), of US$750 million. The funds received were used to repay the Term Loan B and part of the 2027 Notes.

On November 4, 2024, LATAM Airlines Group S.A., acting through its Florida branch, entered into a new four-year revolving credit facility, secured by spare engines (“Spare Engine Facility”), with, among other institutions, Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank as loan agent, for a total amount of US$300 million, of which US$275 million was drawn on the same day, leaving US$25 million available for the Company when required. The loan included minimum
liquidity covenants measured at the consolidated level of the Company (with a minimum level of US$750 million) and individually for LATAM Airlines Group S.A. and TAM Linhas Aéreas S.A. (with a combined minimum level of US$400 million). The funds received were used to fully repay the previous spare engine financing. Finally, this issuance was linked to sustainability (“Sustainability-Linked”), which entails a commitment to reducing CO2 emissions intensity from March 2025 until the maturity of the facility. Compliance or non-compliance with these targets does not result in acceleration of the credit but instead applies a reward or penalty, respectively, on the interest rate.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company complies with the aforementioned minimum liquidity covenants.
