Santiago, Chile. September 13, 2018.- Sociedad Química y Minera de Chile S.A. (SQM) (NYSE: SQM; Santiago Stock Exchange: SQM-B, SQM-A) informs that a hearing was held with the Antitrust Court, Tribunal de la Libre Competencia (TDLC)) to discuss the out of court agreement that was released on Friday, September 7, between the Chilean Antitrust Regulator, Fiscalía Nacional Económica (FNE) and Tianqi Lithium Corporation (Tianqi). As part of this process, the TDLC must approve or reject the agreement, not been able to alter the proposal of the parties. Through the investigation, the FNE pointed out and verified that the intended Tianqi transaction presents several risks to free competition. Accordingly, the FNE has ruled out that this transaction will result in efficiencies. In both cases, SQM agrees with the FNE, although it believes there are additional risks not mentioned by the FNE. As a publicly traded corporation with shares traded in Chile as well as on the New York Stock exchange, SQM has demonstrated that it does not discriminate nor favor on shareholders or investors based on their political views, nationality or other. As such, and having an interest in the TDLC resolution, SQM expressed today, as unanimously agreed to by its Board of Directors the inadequacy of the proposed measures and explained that the agreement should be denied. SQM is in a situation where it will have to receive a direct competitor as a shareholder, which although it is not illegal, presents risks and challenges to free competition. The aforementioned becomes more complex because of SQM’s open stock corporation status and ownership structure, the political rights that Tianqi will hold once the transaction materializes, and the fact that the proposed measures will have an obvious impact on SQM’s corporate activities. In this sense, the Company does not believe that the proposed measures in the agreement effectively resolve the risks that it intends to mitigate and do not correctly prevent the access to sensitive information, which could damage SQM and the market. By having a competitor that is also an important shareholder, SQM could be subject to possible investigations and penalties for reasons that are outside of its control. Finally, SQM believes that the maximum term contemplated of six years is insufficient. The criteria that has been applied to date is that the risk mitigation measures must last until the risk ceases to exist. If Tianqi believes that no risks will exist in the future, it must prove this to the TDLC and request modification and elimination of said measures. It is not appropriate, as the agreement suggests, for SQM to request to maintain of the measures if the risks persist at the end of the term of the agreement.（from:SQM）
