To whom it may concern:

In accordance with the provisions of Articles 9 and 10 of Law 18,045 and the provisions in Chapter 18-10 of the Updated Compilation of Norms from the Superintendence of Banks and Financial Institutions, Banco Santander-Chile informs that it has come to our knowledge Resolution number 224 with date January 11, 2019, issued by the Superintendence of Banks and Financial Institutions, through which the entity has resolved to apply a penalty amounting to 2,720 UF, as a consequence of the occurrences which, it argues, would constitute alleged infractions to the articles 6 and 6 ter of Law 18,010.

Banco Santander-Chile complies with making this situation known to the market, in compliance with the duties of information defined by law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Banco Santander-Chile puts on record that a recourse of reposition has been interposed, pending its resolution by the Superintendence.

Sincerely,

Carlos Volante Neira
