<P style="margin:0px; font-size:12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Salvador Said Somav&#237;a was appointed to the Audit Committee of Embotelladora Andina S.A. (the &#147;Company&#148;), by the Regular Meeting of the Board of Directors of the Company held on April 22, 2008, replacing Jos&#233; Antonio Garc&#233;s Silva (Junior), as duly informed by the Form 6K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 23, 2008.</P>
<P style="margin:0px"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0px; font-size:12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company discloses that, with respect to the current membership of Mr. Said and the previous membership of Mr. Garc&#233;s Silva on the Company&#146;s Audit Committee, it has relied on the exemption from the independence requirements provided by Rule 10A-3(b)(1)(iv)(D) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#147;Exchange Act&#148;). Pursuant to Rule 10A-3(b)(1)(iv)(D), a director who is either an affiliate or a representative of an affiliate of the listed company may serve as a member of the audit committee to the extent the director is not a voting member or chairperson of the audit committee and to the extent that neither the director nor the affiliate the director represents is an executive officer of the listed company.</P>
<P style="margin:0px"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0px; font-size:12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mr. Said meets, as did Mr. Garc&#233;s Silva for the duration of his membership, the requirements of Rule 10A-3(b)(1)(iv)(D) because he (i) is a representative of the controlling shareholder of the Company, Inversiones Freire S.A.; (ii) has only observer status on the audit committee of the Company; and (iii) is not an executive officer of the Company.</P>
<P style="margin:0px"><BR></P>
<P style="margin:0px; font-size:12pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s reliance on the exemption provided by Rule 10A-3(b)(1)(iv)(D) of the Exchange Act would not materially adversely affect the ability of the audit committee of the Company to act independently.</P>
