(ii)increase the number of investment shares upon capitalization of retained earnings, revaluation surplus or other reserves that do not represent cash contributions;

(d)Additional paid-in capital -

 

As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the additional capital amounts to S/432,779,000 and arises mainly as a result of the excess of total proceeds obtained versus par value in the issuance of 111,484,000 common shares and 928,000 investment shares corresponding to a public offering of American Depositary Shares (ADS) registered with the New York Stock Exchange and Lima Stock Exchange on 2012.

 

(e)Legal reserve -

 

Provisions of the General Corporation Law require that a minimum of 10 per cent of the distributable earnings for each period, after deducting the income tax, be transferred to a legal reserve until such is equal to 20 per cent of the capital. This legal reserve can offset losses or can be capitalized, and in both cases, there is the obligation to replenish it.
