These interim consolidated financial statements (hereinafter “the financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in Chile (“Chilean GAAP”) and standards set forth by the Chilean Superintendency of Securities and Insurance (“SVS”).

For the convenience of the reader, these financial statements have been translated from Spanish to English.

The Company’s financial statements as of June 30 and December 31 of each year are prepared in order to be reviewed and audited respectively, in accordance with current legal regulations.

(c) Basis of presentation:

The interim consolidated financial statements for 2005 and their notes have been adjusted for comparison purposes by 4.1% in order to allow comparison with the 2006 interim financial statements. For comparison purposes, certain reclassifications have been made to the 2005 financial statements.

(i) Inventories:

Equipment held for sale is carried at price-level restated acquisition or development cost or at market value, whichever is less.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:

(j) Allowance for doubtful accounts:

Different percentages are applied when calculating the allowance for doubtful accounts, taking into consideration the aging of such accounts. The allowance for debts exceeding 120 days, or 180 days in the case of large customers (corporations), ), is for 100% of the amount receivable.

(k) Property, plant and equipment:

Property, plant and equipment are carried at their price-level restated acquisition and/or construction cost.

Property, plant and equipment acquired up to December 31, 1979 are carried at their appraisal value, as stipulated in Article 140 of D.F.L. No. 4, and those acquired subsequently are carried at their acquisition value, except for those assets which are carried at the appraisal value recorded as of September 30, 1986, as authorized in SVS Circular No. 550. All these values have been price-level restated.

(l) Depreciation of property, plant and equipment:

Depreciation has been calculated and recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The average annual financial depreciation rate of the Company is approximately 7.82% .

(m) Leased assets:

Rented Assets with a purchase option and whose contracts meet the characteristics of a financial lease are recorded in a similar fashion to the acquisition of property, plant and equipment, by recognizing the full obligation and interest on an accrual basis. These assets are not legally owned by the Company; therefore until it exercises the purchase option they cannot be freely disposed of.

(n) Intangibles:

i) Rights to underwater cable:
Corresponds to the rights acquired by the Company for the use of an underwater cable to transmit voice and data. This right is amortized over the term of the respective contracts, with a maximum of 25 years.

ii) Software licenses:
Software licenses are valued at their price-level restated acquisition cost. Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful life, which does not exceed 4 years.

(ñ) Investments in related companies:

These investments are accounted for under the equity method, which recognizes the investor’s share of income on an accrual basis. For investments abroad, the valuation methodology applied is that defined in Technical Bulletin No. 64. These investments are controlled in dollars, since they are in countries deemed to be unstable and their activities are not an extension of the operations of the Parent Company.

10


2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:

(o) Goodwill:

Corresponds to the valuation differences that are created when adjusting the cost of the investments, adopting the equity method or making a new purchase. Goodwill and negative goodwill amortization periods have been determined considering aspects such as the nature and characteristics of the business and the estimated period of return of the investment. Goodwill arising on the acquisition of investments abroad is controlled in United States dollars (same currency in which the investment is controlled) as per Technical Bulletin No. 64 of the Chilean Accountants Association. (See Note 12).

Goodwill impairment has been assessed as required in SVS Circular No.1,697 and Technical Bulletin No. 72 issued by the Chilean Association of Accountants.

(p) Transactions with repurchase agreements:

Purchases of securities under agreement to resell are recorded as fixed rate securities and are classified under Other Current Assets (see note 8).

(q) Obligations with the public:

(r) Income tax and deferred income taxes:

Income tax is recorded on the basis of taxable net income. Deferred taxes on all temporary differences, usable tax loss carry forwards, and other events that create differences between the tax and accounting values are recognized in accordance with, Technical Bulletins No. 60 and its modifications issued by the Chilean Accountants Association and as established by SVS Circular No.1,466 dated January 27, 2000.

(s) Staff severance indemnities:

For employees who qualify for this benefit, the Company’s staff severance indemnities obligation is provided for by applying the present value of the obligation using an annual discount rate of 6%, considering estimates such as the future service period of the employee, mortality rate of employees and salary increases determined on the basis of actuarial calculations (see Note 19).
Costs for past services of the employees produced by changes in the actuarial bases, are deferred and amortized over average periods of employees’ future service periods.

(t) Revenue recognition:

The Company’s revenues are recognized on an accrual basis in accordance with Chilean GAAP. Since billing dates are different from the accounting close date, as of the date of preparation of these financial statements provisions have been established for services provided and not billed, which are determined on the basis of contracts, traffic, prices and current conditions for the period. These amounts are recorded under Trade Accounts Receivable.

11


2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:

(u) Foreign currency forwards:

The Company has entered into future foreign currency contracts, which represent a hedge against the variation in the exchange rate of its obligations in foreign currency.

These instruments are valued in accordance with Technical Bulletin No. 57 of the Chilean Accountants Association.

The rights and obligations acquired are detailed in Note 27, reflecting in the balance sheet only the net right or obligation at period end, classified according to the maturity of each contract under Other Current Assets or Other Payables, as applicable. The contract’s implicit premium is deferred and amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the contract.

(v) Interest rate coverage:

Interest on loans for which associated interest rate swaps have been entered into is recorded recognizing the effect of those contracts on the interest rate established in such loans. The rights and obligations acquired therein are shown under Other Creditors or under Other Current Assets, as applicable (See Note 27).

(w) Computer software:

The cost of software purchased is deferred and amortized using the straight-line method over a maximum period of four years and classified under Other property, plant and equipment.

(x) Research and development expenses:

Research and development expenses are charged to income in the period in which they are incurred. Those expenses have not been significant in recent years.

(y) Accumulated adjustment for conversion differences:

The Company recognizes in this equity reserve account the difference from exchange rate fluctuations and the Consumer Price Index (C.P.I.) from restating its investments abroad. These investments are controlled in United States dollars. The balance in this account is credited (or charged) to income in the same period in which the net income or loss on the total or partial disposal of these investments is recognized.

(z) Statement of cash flows:

For the purposes of preparing the Statement of Cash Flows according to Technical Bulletin No. 50 of the Chilean Accountants Association and SVS Circular No.1,312, the Company defines cash equivalents as securities under agreements to resell and time deposits maturing in less than 90 days.

Cash flows related to the Company’s line of business and all cash flows not defined as from investing or financing activities are included under “Cash Flows from Operating Activities”.

12


2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued:

(aa) Correspondents:

The Company currently has agreements with foreign correspondents, which set the conditions that regulate international traffic. The correspondents are charged or paid, according to net traffic receivable/payable and the rates set in each agreement.

This receivable/payable is recorded on an accrual basis; the costs and income for the period are recognized on an accrual basis, and the net balances receivable and payable of each correspondent are recorded under “Trade Accounts Receivable” or “Accounts Payable”, as applicable.

3. Accounting Changes:

a) Accounting changes

During the periods covered in these interim consolidated financial statements, the accounting principles have been consistently applied.

b) Change in estimate

i) Change in the estimations of staff severance indemnities

Changes in actuarial hypotheses
As established in Technical Bulletin No. 8 issued by the Chilean Association of Accountants and in light of the new contractual conditions derived from the organizational restructuring undergone by the Company, a series of studies were undertaken to modify the calculation base for the staff severance indemnities provision. Initially, in December 2004, this meant recognizing deferred assets of ThCh$4,872,939 (historical). After these studies were concluded during 2005, the Company decided to also include other actuarial estimates in the calculation methodology used for this provision. The additional variables modified were: personnel turnover index, mortality rate and future salary increases. As a result of these modifications, the Company recorded deferred assets of ThCh$3,648,704 in the year 2005. Both effects will be amortized over the future service period of the employees with this benefit (see portion to be amortized in the short-term in Note 8 (3) and in the long-term in Note 14 (2).

Change in the discount rate
During the first quarter of 2006 an evaluation was performed of the market interest rate used to calculate the current value of staff severance indemnities. After completing this analysis the Company decided to reduce the discount rate from 7% to 6%. As a result of these modifications, the Company recorded deferred tax assets of ThCh$ 2,797,402 in 2006 which will be amortized over the future years of service of the employees that qualify for this benefit.

This amount corresponds to the cost (net of amortizations) of the mandatory reserve paid to the Chilean Central Bank and disbursements incurred for foreign loans obtained by the Company, to finance its investment plan.
 
(2)     
In light of the new contractual conditions derived from the organizational evolution experienced by the Company, there have been a series of studies that, , beginning in 2004, allowed, the modification of the variable for future years of service of employees within the basis for calculating staff severance indemnities. After concluding these studies, in 2005 other estimations were incorporated such as mortality of employees and futures salary increases and includes the rate change mentioned in Note 3 b i) for 2006 , all determined on the basis of actuarial calculations, as established in Technical Bulletin No. 8 of the Chilean Association of Accountants.
 
 
The difference at the beginning of the year as a result of changes in the actuarial estimates constitutes actuarial gains or losses, which are deferred and amortized during the years of average future permanence remaining for the employees that will receive the benefit (see Note 2s).
 
(2)     
In conformity with the union agreements between the Company and its employees, loans were granted to employees, the amounts and conditions of which were based, among other aspects, on the accrued balances of staff severance indemnities when they were granted.
 
 
The staff severance indemnities provision has been recorded in part at its current value, deferring and amortizing this effect over the years of average remaining service life of employees that subscribe to the benefit. The loan is presented under Other Long-term Receivables.

28. Contingencies and commitments:

a) Lawsuits:

(i) Claims presented by VTR Telefónica S.A.:

On September 30, 2000, VTR Telefónica S.A. filed an ordinary suit for the collection of access charges in the amount of ThCh$2,500,000, based on the differences that would arise from the lowering of access charge rates, due to Rate Decree No.187 of Telefónica CTC Chile. The initial sentence accepted VTR’s claim and the compensation alleged by Telefónica CTC Chile. The Company filed a motion to vacate and appeal, which is currently underway.

(ii) Labor lawsuits:

In the course of normal operations, labor lawsuits have been filed against the Company.

To date, among others, there are labor proceedings involving former employees, who claim wrongful dismissal. These employees did not sign termination releases or receive staff severance indemnities. On various occasions, the Supreme Court has reviewed the sentences handed down on the matter, accepting the argument of the Company and ratifying the validity of the terminations.

There are, in addition, other lawsuits involving former employees, whose staff severance indemnities have been paid and their termination releases signed, who in spite of having chosen voluntary retirement plans or having been terminated due to company needs, intend to have the terminations voided. Of these lawsuits, to date, two have received a sentence favorable to the Company, rejecting the annulments.

Certain unions have filed complaints before the Santiago Labor Courts, requesting damage payments for various concepts.

In the opinion of Management and internal legal counsel, the risk that the Company will be required to pay indemnities in the amount claimed in the previously mentioned lawsuits, in addition to other civil and labor suits in which the Company is the defendant, is remote. Management considers it unlikely that the Company’s income and equity will be significantly affected by these loss contingencies.

(iii) Other contingencies; Lawsuit against the Government:

On October 31, 2001,Telefónica CTC Chile filed an administrative motion before the Ministry of Transport and Telecommunications and the Ministry of Economy, requesting correction of the errors and illegalities in Rate Decree No. 187 of 1999. On January 29, 2002, the Ministries issued a joint response rejecting the administrative recourse, after having “carefully evaluated, only the viability and timeliness of the petition made, considering the set of circumstances that concur in the problem stated and the prudence that must orient public actions”, to add that such rejection “has had no other motivation than to protect the general interest and progress of the telecommunications services”.

Upon extinguishing the administrative instances to correct the errors and illegalities involved in the tariff setting process of 1999, in March 2002, Telefónica CTC Chile filed a lawsuit for damages against the State of Chile for the sum of Ch$ 181,038,411,056, plus readjustments and interest, which covers past and future damages until May 2004.

The judicial process is currently at the stage of issuing a sentence.

28. Contingencies and restrictions, continued:

(iv) Manquehue Net:

On June 24, 2003, Telefónica CTC Chile filed a forced compliance of contracts complaint with damage indemnity before the mixed arbitration court of Mr. Victor Vial del Río against Manquehue Net, in the amount of Ch$ 3,647,689,175, in addition to costs incurred during the proceeding. Likewise, and on the same date, Manquehue Net filed a compliance with discounts complaint (in the amount of UF 107,000), in addition to an obligation to perform complaint (signing of a 700 services contract). After completion of the evidence period, on June 5, 2004 the arbiter called the parties together to pronounce a sentence.

On April 11, 2005, the Court notified the first instance sentence accepting the claim made by Telefónica CTC Chile and ordering Manquehue to pay approximately Ch$ 452 million, and at the same time accepted Manquehue’s claim and ordered Telefónica CTC Chile to pay 47,600 UF.

Telefónica CTC Chile filed an appeal for dismissal on the grounds of errors in the form in both cases; which are currently pending before the Court of Appeals of Santiago.

b) Financial restrictions:

In order to carry out its investment plans, the Company obtained financing in the local and foreign market (notes 15, 16 and 17), which established, among others restrictions, the maximum debt that the Company may have and interest coverage requirements.

The maximum debt ratio for these contracts is between 1.50 and 1.60, whereas the interest coverage ratio cannot be less than 4.00.

Non-compliance with these clauses implies that all the obligations included in these financing contracts will be considered as due.

As of March 31, 2006 the Company complies with all the financial restrictions.

29. Third party guarantees:

The Company has not received any guarantees from third parties.

1. HIGHLIGHTS

Consolidated Income and Figures for the Corporation’s Business Areas

As of March 31, 2006, Telefónica CTC Chile recorded consolidated net income of Ch$734 million, whereas in the same period in 2005 it shows net income of Ch$ 8,507 million.

For comparison purposes, as detailed in the following table, the operating margin reaches 13.8% and 15.9% for the periods ended in March 2006 and 2005, respectively.
The operating income of Telefónica CTC Chile presents a surplus of Ch$19.45 billion, 14.0% less than the Ch$22.608 billion reached in the period ended March 31, 2005.

    2005    2006    % Variation 
             
Revenues    142,255    140,804    -1.0% 
 
Salaries    -18,025    -16,482    -8.6% 
Goods and services    -51,025    -54,693    7.2% 
Total Cost    -69,050    -71,175    3.1% 
EBITDA    73,205    69,629    -4.9% 
Depreciation    -50,597    -50,179    -0.8% 
Operating Income    22,608    19,450    -14.0% 
 
Operating Margin    15.9%    13.8%     

Non-operating income for the period ended as of March 31, 2006 shows a deficit of Ch$15.012 billion, which compares negatively to the deficit obtained in the same period the previous year in the amount of Ch$ 9.501 billion, derived mainly from a decrease in financial income together with an increase in other non-operating expenses. Both effects were partly offset by the decrease in financial expenses associated to a lower level of debt and better financing conditions, and a positive price-level restatement effect.

With respect to operating business figures, as of March 31, 2006, Telefónica CTC Chile had a total of 2,418,073 fixed telephone lines, which represents a decrease of 0.8% in relation to March 31, 2005. The Company’s ADSL business grew 60.9% in relation to the same period the previous year, with 356,986 customers in service. Long distance traffic through the network of Telefónica CTC Chile, for which access charges are charged, decreased by 19.0% in domestic long distance (DLD) and 24.7% in international long distance (ILD). Total traffic reached 338.4 million minutes and 141.9 million minutes, respectively, as of March 31, 2006.

As of March 31, 2006, the Company had a staff of 3,544, which is a decrease of 7.5% from the staff of 3,833 as of March 31, 2005.

Decrease in Financial Debt

Telefónica CTC Chile has continued to improve its debt level through amortization and prepayment of loans, renegotiation of interest rates and terms of current loans as well as through the global drop in interest rates. As of March 31, 2006, the financial debt reached Ch$467.263 billion, reflecting a 20.0% decrease in relation to the financial debt of Ch$585.517 billion recorded as of March 31, 2005. The decrease in the indebtedness levels together with the improved financing conditions and the drop in the value of the dollar translated into a downturn of 44.9% in financial expenses as of March 31, 2006.

Dividends Policy

The Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting held on April 14, 2005 approved the distribution of both the final and interim dividends and also informed the Dividends Policy for 2005 and future years, which will be a distribution of dividends with a 100% charge to income for each year, by means of an interim dividend in November of each year and a final dividend which will be proposed at the Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting.

Likewise, on October 27, 2005, the Board of Directors approved payment of an interim dividend (No.170) of Ch$11.00 per share, with a charge to 2005 income, equivalent to ThCh$10,528,728 (historical).

Permit for Limited Satellite and Cable Television Service

Through Exempt Resolution No. 1605 of December 23, 2005, the Undersecretary of Telecommunications (“Subtel”) granted Telefónica Multimedia Chile S.A. (formerly Tecnonáutica S.A.) a satellite television limited service permit to operate throughout the national territory for a renewable 10-year term.

In addition, through Resolution No. 81 of February 21, 2006, the Undersecretary of Telecommunications granted Telefónica Multimedia Chile S.A. a cable television limited service permit to provide the service through the broadband network of Telefónica CTC, throughout the national territory for an unlimited term except for the Metropolitan Region, which is covered in the permit granted in 1994.

Subtel dictated the technical standard that establishes that the cable television service can be provided using any technology through physical media, which regulates the operation of the ADSL broadband network to provide television services.

Wireless Local Public Telephone Concessions on 3,400 – 3,600 MHz Frequency Band

By means of Resolutions No. 64 and No. 65 of January 20, 2006, the Ministry of Transport and Telecommunications assigned to Telefónica CTC Chile the regional concessions to provide wireless local telephone services in Regions XI and XII, respectively, since it was the only bidder. The resolutions were published in the Official Gazette and in newspapers distributed in both regions on February 7, 2006. The decrees granting those concessions are pending.


5

Modifications of the Regulatory Framework. Extension of the Length of Public Telephone Services Subscriber Number

By means of Resolution No. 1120, of September 28, 2005, published in the Official Gazette on October 4, 2005, Subtel set a period of 10 months to extend the local telephone numbers in the Primary Zones of Valparaiso and Concepción by one digit. The extension for Santiago and the rest of the zones was deferred.

Furthermore, by means of Decree No. 400, of October 4, 2005, issued by the Ministry of Transport and Telecommunications, the Fundamental Telephone Numbering Technical Plan was modified in order to define the virtual mobile network area code with the number 09, and by means of Exempt Resolution No. 27 of 2006, August 19, 2006 was established as the date in which the new virtual mobile area code will begin operating.

Telefónica CTC Chile is performing the network and systems modifications needed to enable what is established in the regulations on telephone numbers.

3. ANALYSIS OF INCOME FOR THE PERIOD

3.1 OPERATING INCOME

As of March 31, 2006, operating income amounted to Ch$19.450 billion, which represents a 14.0% decrease with respect to the previous year.

Operating Income

Operating income for the period amounted to Ch$140,804 million, or a decrease of 1.0% in relation to the income for the period from January to March 2005 of Ch$142.255 billion.

This variation mainly resulted from a decrease in long distance income and in income from corporate communications, partly offset by an increase in fixed telephone services.

Revenues from Local Telephone Services: Revenues from local telephone services increased by 0.9%, as a result of a combination of factors. There was a 7.9% drop in basic telephone services with respect to the previous year, derived from a 20.7% decrease in the level of variable charge, which shows the effect of lower income derived from the application of the new rate decree, the downturn in traffic per line and the migration of customers to flexible plans recorded since 2005. Fixed monthly charges, corresponding to the fixed monthly charge for connection to the network, decreased 26.2%, which is mainly explained by the incorporation of new customers to flexible plans. This effect was offset by the effect of higher income due to the application of the new rate decree. Consequently, the incorporation of customers to flexible plans positively contributed to the Ch$8.953 billion increase in income. Income from connections and other installations fell 35.7% with respect to the previous year, whereas value added services decreased by 17.3%, and other basic telephone services income increased by 4.5% .

Broadband services increased 69.2% in the period from January to March 2006, to Ch$13.784 billion, whereas in the same period the previous year income from these services amounted to Ch$8.147 billion.

Access charges and interconnections increased by 19.8%, mainly due to the 34.9% increase in other interconnection services, with particularly noteworthy increases in media rental services, carrier information and connection services, and unbundling services, together with a 48.8% increase in mobile and fixed access charges. On the other hand there was a 36.9% drop in income from international long distance access charges and 18.9% in domestic long distance.

Other fixed telephone services decreased by 5.8%, equivalent to Ch$892 million, primarily as a result of the Ch$725 million drop in income from commercialization of equipment.

Long Distance: Revenues from these services decreased by 9.6% in comparison to 2005, due to a decrease of 8.9% and 8.5% in DLD and ILD, respectively, which was influenced by a decrease in average outgoing long distance, a 6.6% drop in DLD and a 9.9% increase in outgoing ILD traffic. The above is increased by the drop in income from media and circuit rental.

Corporate Communications: Revenue from corporate communications shows a 4.8% decrease in respect to the previous year, due to a drop in all lines of business: 25.5% in data


9

services together with a 4.0% decrease in income from sale of terminal equipment and a 1.5% decrease in income from complementary services. This was partly offset by a 27.1% increase in income from circuits and others.

Other Businesses: This revenue shows a 0.6% decrease mainly due to decrease in income from the subsidiary Telepeajes (teletoll services).

Operating Costs

Operating costs for the period reached Ch$121.354 billion, increasing by 1.4% in relation to 2005, when they reached Ch$119.647 billion. This is explained mainly by an increase in the line of goods and services and depreciation, which effect was partly offset by a tendency to reduce expenses, primarily in remunerations, due to the efforts put into efficient use of resources applied by the Company in the last few years.

3.2 NON-OPERATING INCOME

Non-operating income obtained in the period ended March 31, 2006 shows a loss of Ch$15.012 billion, whereas in the previous year non-operating income reached Ch$9.501 billion. The change in non-operating income is broken down as follows:

Financial income shows a decrease of 80.7%, mainly because in 2005, the greater volume of funds available from the sale of the subsidiary Móviles was temporarily allocated to financial investments.

Other non-operating income amounted to Ch$499 million, which is lower than the Ch$602 million reached in 2005. This is mainly due to lower income obtained on the sale of recovered material.

Financial expenses decreased by 44.9% in 2006, as a product of lower interest bearing debt, renegotiation of the rates of current loans, the drop in market interest rate and the effect of the drop in the exchange rate.

Amortization of goodwill shows a Ch$724 million increase in relation to 2005, mainly due to the full amortization of goodwill of Tecnonaútica, due to the restructuring of the Telefonica CTC Chile group.

Other non-operating expenses reached Ch$10,125 million, a Ch$8,629 million increase in respect to 2005. This is mainly derived from the cost of the restructuring carried out in 2006.

Price-level restatement in 2006 shows a loss of Ch$425 million, mainly due to the variations in the CPI, UF and exchange rate. It should be noted that a 100% hedge has been maintained for exchange rate fluctuation and a 79% hedge for interest rate. The Company’s exchange rate (peso-dollar) hedge policy was, in large part, able to neutralize the effect of the exchange rate variation in 2005 and 2006.


10

3.3 NET RESULT FOR THE PERIOD

The Company recorded net income of Ch$734 million for the 2006 period, whereas in the 2005 period, net income was Ch$8.507 billion. The lower income obtained in the 2006 period in comparison to 2005 is derived from a 14.0% operating surplus and the increase in the non-operating deficit equivalent to Ch$5,511 million; these effects are offset by the lower income tax liability.

4. RESULTS BY BUSINESS AREA

Local Telephone Business: Net loss of Ch$4.855 billion as of March 31, 2006, comparatively lower than the surplus of Ch$806 million recorded in 2005, due to lower non-operating income, and the higher operating deficit, mainly due to recording the cost of the restructuring carried out in the first quarter of 2006.

Corporate Communications Business: This business contributed net income of Ch$2.625 billion, an 11.6% decrease in relation to 2005, when net income was Ch$2.968 billion. The difference is the result of lower operating income due to the cost of restructuring carried out in the first quarter of 2006.

Long Distance Business: As of March 31, 2006, the Company presented net income of Ch$3.195 billion, lower than that reached in 2005 which amounted to Ch$4,550 million. This variation is produced mainly by a 16.1% drop in operating income and operating deficit of Ch$178 million, which compares negatively to the non-operating surplus obtained in the first quarter of 2005 in the amount of Ch$325 million.

Other Businesses: The businesses as a whole generated a net loss of Ch$232 million and operating income of Ch$37 million in the period ended March 31, 2006, whereas during the same period the previous year, they recorded net income of Ch$183 million, with an operating surplus of Ch$103 million. These businesses mainly include Telepeajes (teletoll services), Tecnonáutica and T-gestiona.

The following table shows the contribution of each business area to corporate results:

The negative variation of Ch$8.903 billion in cash flows for the 2006 period compared to the negative variation of Ch$19,457 million in 2005 is because in 2006 cash flows from financing activities increased, and also less cash flows were allocated to short-term investments. Both effects are offset by the lower cash flows obtained from operating activities.

From the previous table we emphasize the following:

The common liquidity index shows an increase due to a 26.8% drop in current assets, whereas current liabilities decreased by 39.1%, due to a decrease in the financial debt in comparison to December of the previous year.

The decrease in the debt ratio is explained by a 16.7% drop in the level of demand liabilities whereas shareholders’ equity decreased by 10%, mainly due to distribution of retained earnings through the payment of dividends.

7. EXPLANATION OF THE MAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MARKET OR ECONOMIC VALUE AND THE BOOK VALUE OF THE COMPANY’S ASSETS

Due to market inaccuracies regarding the capital assets of the sector, there is no economic or market value that can be compared to the respective accounting values. However, there are certain buildings with a book value equal or close to zero. These buildings have a market value, but compared to the book value it is not significant with respect to the Company’s assets in the aggregate.

In relation to other assets, such as marketable securities (shares and promissory notes) with a referential market value, the corresponding provisions have been established when the market value is less than the book value.

8. REGULATORY ASPECTS Fixed Telephony Tariff Decree

On May 4, 2004, the Ministries of Transport and Telecommunications and of Economy, Development and Reconstruction dictated Rate Decree No. 169, which they submitted together with the supporting report to the Chilean General Comptroller for the recording process.

On February 8, 2005, the Chilean General Comptroller recorded Tariff Decree No. 169.

Tariff Decree No. 169 was published in the Official Gazette on February 11, 2005. Telefónica CTC Chile enabled the application of the new rates to its customers in its systems and began the rebilling process as of May 6, 2004.

Tariff Flexibility

By means of Resolution No. 709 of October 13, 2003, the Resolution Commission decided to: “Accept the request on fs 476 of Compañía de Telecomunicaciones de Chile S.A., only inasmuch as it is necessary to clarify Resolution No. 686, of May 20, 2003, recorded on fs. 440, in the sense that the resolution implies that the market conditions are not present to authorize tariff freedom, and therefore a maximum rate must be set. Lower tariffs or plans may be offered, but the conditions of these, which protect and provide due guarantees to the user from those in dominant positions in the market, must be regulated by the respective authority.”

The Official Gazette of February 26, 2004, published Decree No. 742, of December 24, 2003, issued by the Ministry of Transport and Telecommunications, which establishes the regulations that govern, without restrictions as to levels or structure, the conditions under which various plans and joint offers can be offered by the dominant operators of the local telephone service.

The rate flexibility allows Telefónica CTC Chile to offer its customers various commercial plans, other than the plan regulated by the authority, as per the conditions defined by the Company itself.

Telefónica CTC Chile began commercializing the different plans for local telephone public service, so that the interested public can opt for an alternative that is different to the rate structure defined by the regulator.

On January 20, 2004, the Ministries of Transport and Telecommunications and of Economy, Development and Reconstruction, by means of a decree, set the levels, structure and indexation mechanisms of the services subject to tariff setting.

On April 12, 2004, the Chilean General Comptroller recorded the decrees that set the tariffs for access charges for mobile telephony companies. The tariff decrees were published in the Official Gazette of April 14, 2004.

Modifications of the Regulatory Framework

Extension of the length of the public telephone services subscriber number.

By means of Resolution No. 1120, of September 28, 2005, published in the Official Gazette on October 4, 2005, Subtel set a period of 10 months to extend the local telephone numbers in the Primary Zones of Valparaiso and Concepción by one digit. The extension for Santiago and the rest of the zones was deferred.

Furthermore, by means of Decree No. 400, of October 4, 2005, issued by the Ministry of Transport and Telecommunications, the Fundamental Telephone Numbering Technical Plan was modified in order to define the virtual mobile network area code as the number 09 and Exempt Resolution No. 27 establishes August 19, 2006 as the date on which the new code of the virtual mobile area will begin operating.


16

Telefónica CTC Chile is performing the network and system modifications required to enable the requirements of the telephone numbers regulation.

New format of Single Telephone Bill.

Decree No. 510 issued by the Ministry of Transport and Telecommunications establishes the minimum content and other elements of the Single Telephone Bill and a period of 120 days is set to apply the provisions established in the mentioned decree.

On January 12, 2005, Telefónica CTC Chile requested from Subtel approval of the contents and design of the new Single Telephone bill in conformity with Decree No. 510.

Outside of the specified comment period, Subtel made observations to the proposal made by Telefónica CTC Chile, ordering them to be rectified before issuance to the public, in addition to issuing an Official Circular with instructions for applying the Regulation.

Telefónica CTC Chile filed a complaint before the Chilean General Comptroller against Subtel pertaining to the legality of infringing on the standard that establishes that after 30 days the proposal made by the concessionary will be understood to be fully approved, which did in fact occur and that is not recognized in the pronouncement.

On August 30, 2005, Subtel responded to the Chilean General Comptroller in respect to the legality complaint filed by Telefónica CTC against the acts of Subtel which made observations on the new model of the Single Telephone Bill outside of the specified comment period.

In its report, Subtel recognizes that it made observations outside of the specified comment period and formulates its defense on the basis that Telefónica CTC Chile’s model of telephone bill does is not in accordance with the legal ordinance.

On October 6, 2005, Telefónica CTC Chile presented a writ before the Chilean General Comptroller answering the arguments made by Subtel in its report.

As support for the legal thesis stated in the complaint, Telefónica CTC Chile attached a Legal Report to the Chilean General Comptroller from the Administrative Law Professor, which confirms the relevance of the complaint that was filed.

By means of verdict No. 09695, of February 28, 2006, the Chilean General Comptroller declared that the single telephone bill model presented by Telefónica CTC Chile must be understood to be fully approved, and furthermore it indicated that what was stated by Subtel in their official circular No. 09, of 2005, which determines the sense and scope of the standards of Decree No. 510 of 2004 is not applicable to Telefónica CTC Chile.

Technical Standard that classifies complementary services into categories.

By means of Exempt Resolution No. 1319, of October 6, 2004, Subtel established the categories of complementary services and attributed the numeration to the respective categories of complementary services that users can access through the public telephone network.


17

Telefónica CTC Chile made the adjustments to its network to enable, among other aspects, numbering of the complementary Internet narrowband access service, the deadline for which is April 8, 2006.

Public consultation of regulation projects.

In July and August 2004, Subtel began making public inquiries to the relevant parties of the telecommunications sector with respect to proposals for regulations regarding Network Unbundling and IP Telephony.

The Network Unbundling proposal, which was subjected to a new public inquiry in December 2004, defines the services, their operating conditions and adds new services that modify the conditions already defined in the tariff decree, defining new obligations that make unbundling more troublesome (obligation to invest, new rights of subscribers, discrimination of obligations according to the technology used, etc.). Furthermore, the obligation to resell is established for mobile companies and the resale conditions are regulated for wholesalers of alternative tariff plans offered by Telefónica CTC Chile. The Company participated in those public inquiries making its observations and formulating its legal objections among which it emphasized that a large part of those proposals are matters of law and not mere regulations, at the same time that other aspects of the regulatory proposal cannot even be addressed in a law since they affect rights guaranteed by the Chilean Constitution.

Regarding the IP Telephony proposal, it defines a special type of broadband telephony, which is provided using the existing broadband infrastructure, with fewer regulatory requirements than traditional telephony (for example, the multicarrier system for DLD is not applicable), which discriminates against traditional operators who could not provide the service under these same conditions. The Company, as well as other operators, made their observations and legal objections to this proposal since they consider it, among other aspects, discriminatory and an attack on the development of the industry since it discourages investment in new infrastructure and in broadband.

As of March 31, 2006, Subtel has not made a pronouncement on either case regarding the observations and legal objections made by the Company and by other companies in the sector, nor has it sent to the Chilean General Comptroller the final texts of such regulations for recording.

Lawsuit against the State of Chile

On October 31, 2001, Telefónica CTC Chile, seeking to correct errors in Tariff Decree No. 187 of 1999, filed a motion for reconsideration with the Ministries requesting corrections to the 1999 Tariff Decree No. 187. On January 29, 2002, the Ministries issued a joint rejection of this request, explaining that “having carefully evaluated, only the feasibility and timeliness of the petition made, considering the set of circumstances of the problem and the prudence that must orient public actions”, and that the rejection “has had no other motivation than to protect the general interest and progress of the telecommunications services”.

Having exhausted all administrative remedies aimed at correcting the illegal actions taken in the tariff-setting process of May 1999, in March 2002, Telefónica CTC Chile filed a lawsuit for damages against the Government in the amount of Ch$181,038,411,056 plus readjustments and


18

interest, covering past and future damages incurred up to May 2004.

Expert reports were presented on various aspects of the case supporting the position held by Telefónica CTC Chile. On March 29, 2005, the court dictated a resolution summoning the parties to the first instance sentencing, which involves an end to the discussion and evidence stage. A sentence should be declared in the near future.

Voissnet Makes an Accusation Before the National Economic Attorney General’s Office (“Fiscalía Nacional Económica”) and Files Suit Before the Antitrust Commission, both against Telefónica CTC Chile

On January 20, 2005, Telefónica CTC Chile responded to the accusation made by Voissnet filed before the National Economic Attorney General’s Office for alleged events which in its opinion attempted to violate free competition, development and growth of Internet technology, fundamentally of broadband telephony, and access to broadband, since they establish the prohibition of carrying voice using the Internet broadband access provided by Telefónica CTC Chile.

On March 14, 2005 Telefónica CTC Chile responded to the complaint filed by Voissnet before the Antitrust Commission (Tribunal de Defensa de la Libre Competencia”), hereafter TDLC, which is founded on the same facts that Voissnet indicated in the accusation filed before the National Economic Attorney General’s Office. Voissnet’s intention is for the TDLC to force Telefónica CTC to allow third parties to provide IP Telephony through the Internet using the ADSL owned by Telefónica.

Telefónica CTC Chile rejected each and every part of the accusations made by the accuser, providing market, legal and regulatory information regarding development of the broadband market in Chile, stating that it has made considerable investments to develop broadband in Chile and has facilitated the participation of all ISP through an open model, and that it is not opposed to IP telephony, but rather to the anti-competitive practices that companies are attempting to use, taking advantage of investments made by others.

Telefónica CTC Chile in turn filed a countersuit against Voissnet, in order for the Court to correct, prohibit and suppress the serious attempts to limit free competition incurred by that company, by providing telephone services to its subscribers without having the concession required by Law, or complying with the legal, regulatory and technical regulations applicable to telephony that are fulfilled by the public telephone service concessionaries, applying market skimming practices of customers of telephone concessionaries with a greater amount of traffic and which have the broadband service, and taking advantage of the existing infrastructure owned by the mentioned companies, without their authorization, and without any retribution or payment whatsoever for the use of the public telephone network and equipment used to provide broadband Internet access.

Subtel submitted the report requested by the TDLC in relation to the complaint presented by Voissnet, without making reference to the countersuit presented by Telefónica CTC Chile, questioning the contractual restrictions imposed by Telefónica CTC Chile.

On April 8, 2005, Voissnet answered the counterplea filed by Telefónica CTC Chile, requesting that it be rejected in all its parts. By means of resolution dated June 1, 2005, the TDLC deemed that there were no substantial, relevant and controversial facts, therefore the case was not to be


19

received for evidence, but a date would be set to hear the case.

Telefónica CTC Chile appealed the resolution of the TDLC since it considers that there are substantial, relevant and controversial facts that both parties must prove within the evidence stage, and which are determinant for due resolution of this process and it requested that the Court dismiss it and replace it receiving the case for the evidence stage.

On June 22, 2005, the TDLC dismissed the appeal made by Telefónica CTC Chile, ratifying that in this case only legal and not factual aspects must be clarified.

On August 16, 2005, Telefónica CTC Chile was notified of the requirement filed against it by the Fiscalía Nacional Económica (FNE), based on the same conducts alleged by Voissnet against Telefónica CTC Chile in its complaint of December 2004. In its requirement, the FNE mainly requests the following from the TDLC: That it declare that Telefónica CTC has infringed on free trade, through the creation of artificial entry barriers for new competitors in the local fixed telephony market, ordering it to abstain from persisting in any act or conduct the purpose of which is to prevent granting of IP Telephony; that the Megavía DSL Contracts for Broadband Access to Internet signed by CTC with the ISP be modified, in order to immediately terminate the application of the clauses that prohibit granting of IP voice service; that Telefónica CTC Chile be fined 350 annual tax units (“unidades tributarias anuales”), or whatever fine the TDLC determines, and payment of the costs of this case; and that a request be made to the President of the Chile so that, through the applicable ministries, a study should be performed of the modifications needed to the legal and regulatory precepts of the current regulatory framework of the telecommunications market.

On September 2, 2005, Telefónica CTC Chile answered the complaint of the FNE.

The TDLC ordered both processes to be accumulated, which means that the Voissnet lawsuit is suspended until the new lawsuit arrives at the same stage. Therefore, the allegations cited August 11, 2005 were suspended.

On October 4, 2005, the TDLC accepted the petition of Telefónica CTC Chile to receive the case for evidence, setting the points of evidence. On October 11, 2005, accepting the request of the Company and the FNE for reinstatement, the Court modified the originally defined points of evidence.

On December 15, 2005, Telmex Servicios Empresariales S.A. became a party to the process as a third party interested in the results of the lawsuit, stating to the TDLC that in accordance with current legislation, the broadband voice services provided by Voissnet are a public telecommunications service, and therefore there is no reason whatsoever that in their provision they are exempt from the regime applicable to all local telephone operators.

On December 20, 2005, the TDLC began hearing evidence from witnesses, with Voissnet providing evidence first followed by the National Economic Attorney General’s Office and finally Telefónica CTC Chile. Likewise, on December 27, 2005, the parties filed their technical economic reports.

During January, March and April 2006, the TDLC will hear the declarations of the three parties involved in the lawsuit.


20

Setting Rates for Post Supports

Telefónica CTC Chile together with other telecommunications companies presented objections before the Panel of Experts of the Electricity Law, regarding rates for services corresponding to support on posts, proposing an annual rate for each post support of approximately 0.02 UF.

Similarly, the distribution companies also presented before the Panel of Experts their objections regarding the post support rates proposed by the National Energy Commission, proposing an annual rate of between 0.4 UF and 0.5 UF for each support.

On July 7, 2005 Telefonica CTC Chile and the rest of the telecommunications companies that submitted objections to the Panel of Experts, presented their observations of the objections formulated by the electric companies.

The Court of Appeals rejected the protection petition filed by Chilectra S.A., against the judgment of the Panel of Experts, which made a pronouncement on the objections submitted by the Distributors and the telecommunications companies against the Technical Report of the CNE. The Judgment of the Panel of Experts opted for the values proposed by the CNE, including the service of post supports.

Chilectra S.A. also filed with the Chilean General Comptroller appealing the legality of the tariff process. The same was done by ASEP and Chilquinta, filing separate appeals before the Chilean General Comptroller. The Chilean General Comptroller has not issued its report.

Last September 16, the Ministry of Economy submitted to the Chilean General Comptroller for recording, the Tariff Decree that sets the new rates for associated services.

On December 6, 2005, the Chilean General Comptroller returned the decree to the Ministry of Economy, without recording since it deemed that it lacks legality since tariffs must be established during the tariff setting process completed in November 2004, for a 4-year term.

On December 14, 2005, the Ministry of Economy and the National Energy Commission filed a motion to abandon the proceedings before the Chilean General Comptroller, which is pending a pronouncement from the controlling entity.

Telefónica CTC Chile filed a motion for protection against the decision of the Comptroller before the Santiago Court of Appeals, which was accepted for processing by the court. Telecommunications companies VTR, CNT and Entel became a party to the motion for protection.

On March 14, 2006 the hearing began.

Public Tender to Grant Wireless Local Public Telephone Concessions on the 3,400 – 3,600 MHz Frequency Band

On September 15, 2005 the projects were delivered to the companies participating in the public tender called by Subtel to grant wireless local public telephone concessions on the 3,400 – 3,600 MHz band.

The companies participating in that tender were Telefónica CTC Chile, Telmex Servicios Empresariales, MIC Chile S.A. (owned by Telmex Chile) and VTR.

On December 13, 2005, Subtel informed that VTR and Telmex were awarded the concessions to offer wireless local telephone throughout the country, through the preferential rights of both companies.

Telefónica CTC Chile appealed the awarding of the concessions in conformity with the procedure established in the General Telecommunications Law. On March 14, 2006, Telefónica CTC Chile filed an appeal against the resolution of the Minister of Transportation and Telecommunications before the Court of Appeals, which rejected the complaint.

Furthermore, on December 27, 2005, Telefónica CTC Chile filed a public law motion to vacate in respect to the preferential rights of VTR. On February 1, 2006 Telefónica CTC Chile filed an illegality complaint before the Chilean General Comptroller due to what was stated in the Public Tender documents to grant Wireless Local Public Telephone Concessions in the 3,400 – 3,600 MHz band.

Regarding the projects corresponding to Regions XI and XII, the Ministry of Transportation and Telecommunications communicated that by means of Resolutions No. 64 and No. 65, both of January 20, 2006, it assigned the regional concessions to provide wireless local telephone services in Regions XI and XII to Telefónica CTC Chile, since it was the only bidder. The resolutions were published in the Official Gazette and in newspapers distributed in both regions on February 7, 2006. The decrees that grant the mentioned concessions are pending.

Permit for Limited Cable Television Service

Through Exempt Resolution No. 1605 of December 23, 2005, Subtel granted Telefonica Multimedia Chile S.A. (formerly Tecnonáutica S.A.), a satellite television limited service permit to operate throughout the national territory.

In addition, through Resolution No. 81 of February 21, 2006, Subtel granted Telefónica Multimedia Chile S.A. a cable television limited service permit to provide the service through the broadband network of Telefónica CTC, throughout the national territory for an unlimited term except for the Metropolitan Region, which is covered in the permit granted in 1994

Subtel dictated the technical standard that establishes that the cable television service can be


22

provided using any technology through physical media, which regulates the operation of the ADSL broadband network to provide television services.

9. ANALYSIS OF MARKETS, COMPETITION AND RELATIVE PARTICIPATION

Relevant Industry Information

During the first quarter of 2006, the Telecommunications industry maintained its characteistic dynamism, with emphasis on the evolution of the mergers and acquisition processes of operators and the continuity of the constant changes in consumer choices for telecommunications services, particularly within broadband services.

It is estimated that lines in service as of March 2006 reached approximately 3.5 million, reflecting a 2.0% increase in respect to as of March 2005, derived mainly from prepaid telephone services which represent approximately 17% of total lines. Voice services show drops of 4.3% in local, 9.5% in DLD and 4.4% in ILD accumulated in respect to the previous year.

It is estimated that as of March 2006 the mobile telephone market reached a total of 11.5 million subscribers, which represents an accumulated growth of 17% in respect to March 2005.

The Internet market shows a migration from narrowband to broadband, with a 52% decrease in the narrowband market with a total estimated 2,502 million annual minutes and a 48% increase in the broadband market, which as of March 2006, slightly exceeds 800 thousand accesses, 56% with ADSL technology.

Liberty Media takes control of United Global Com, Parent Company of VTR and merges its operations in Chile.

On January 5, 2004 Liberty Media, owner of 50% of Metrópolis Intercom in association with the Claro Group, announced the takeover of the management of United Global Com, owner of 100% of VTR Chile. After the operation, Liberty requested that the Antitrust Commission analyze the possibility of merging VTR and Metrópolis Intercom. Both companies concentrate over 90% of the Pay TV market and are relevant competitors for Telefónica CTC Chile in the broadband market providing cable modem. Likewise, VTR is the second operator of local telephone services in the country.

On June 9, 2004 the National Economic Attorney General’s Office issued its report to the Antitrust Commission recommending the authorization of the merger subject to compliance with a series of restrictions.

On October 25, 2004, the Antitrust Commission resolved to approve the merger of VTR and Metrópolis Intercom, subject to compliance with a series of corporate conditions, in respect to distribution of contents, prices, quality of service and opening of cable network broadband to other ISP. These conditions are applied to ensure development of effective competition in the pay TV market in the short-term.

On March 10, 2005 the Supreme Court of Chile authorized the merger of VTR and Metrópolis, however it considered that the transaction could hinder development of effective competition in the pay television market in the short-term, therefore it made the transactions subject to fulfillment of eight conditions, thus ratifying the decision of the Antitrust Commission in respect to merger restrictions.

On July 1, 2005 VTR began unifying its program offer for VTR and former Metrópolis customers.

Telefónica Móvil acquires the assets of Bellsouth in Latin America and the mobile subsidiary of Telefónica CTC Chile.

On March 8, 2004, Telefónica Móviles S.A. announced the agreement to purchase the assets of Bellsouth Corporation in Latin America. This agreement includes the mobile business of Bellsouth in Chile which operates with a 25 Mhz spectrum on the 800 Mhz band with TDMA and 10 Mhz on the 1900 Mhz band with CDMA.

On May 18, 2004, the Board of Telefónica CTC Chile unanimously accepted the association offer made by Telefónica Móviles S.A., for the acquisition of 100% of the mobile subsidiary of Telefónica CTC Chile, subject to the approval of the Shareholders Meeting.

On July 15, 2004, the shareholders’ meeting to decide on the sale of the mobile subsidiary of Telefónica CTC was held. At this meeting a counteroffer was made by the shareholders which


25

meant that Telefónica Móviles S.A had to pay for the taxes derived from the operation.

On July 23, 2004, the contract was signed for the sale of all the shares of the subsidiary, with which Telefónica CTC no longer participates in the mobile business.

Telefónica Móvil consults the Court of Free Competition on the purchase of Bellsouth.

Telefónica Móvil S.A., a subsidiary of Telefónica S.A., presented to the Court of Free Competition an inquiry regarding the contract denominated “Stock Purchase Agreement” dated March 5, 2004, signed with Bellsouth Corporation, by which it acquires all the telephony assets of the latter in Central and South America, among which is its indirect full ownership of Bellsouth Chile S.A., current mobile telephony operator in the Chilean market.

On January 4, 2005 the Antitrust Commission resolved to approve the consultation of Telefónica Móvil S.A., subsidiary of Telefónica S.A., setting a series of conditions for the merger. One of these conditions directly affects Telefónica CTC Chile, establishing that, any joint offer of services for fixed and mobile telephone services commercialized by the merged company and which, considers fixed telephone services provided by Telefónica CTC Chile, will be understood to be a joint offer made by the latter, which therefore must be governed by Decree No. 742 issued by the Undersecretary of Telecommunications of Chile, published on February 26, 2004.

On April 5, 2005 Telefónica Móvil S.A, subsidiary of Telefónica S.A. launched Movistar in Chile, grouping under this brand the mobile subsidiary purchased from Telefónica CTC Chile in July 2004 and the operations of Bellsouth acquired with the approval of the Antitrust Commission in January 2005.

This law allows local telephone operators to participate in the long distance market through an independent subsidiary subject to a series of requirements.


26

In this market there are currently 15 companies operating with 18 carrier codes. Traffic in the DLD market, through fixed telephone lines recorded a 9.5% drop in the first quarter in respect to the first quarter of 2005.

As of December 2005 it is estimated that Telefónica CTC Chile has a market share of 31% in this service.

10. ANALYSIS OF MARKET RISK

Financial Risk Coverage

With the attractive foreign interest rates in certain periods, the Company has obtained financing abroad, denominated mainly in dollars and in certain cases at a floating interest rate. For this reason the Company faces two types of financial risks, the risk of exchange rate fluctuations and the risk of interest rate fluctuations.

Financial risk due to foreign currency fluctuations.

The Company has exchange rate coverage instruments, the purpose of which is to reduce the negative impact of the dollar fluctuations on its results. The percentage of interest bearing debt exposure is defined and continuously reviewed, basically considering the volatility of the exchange rate, its trend, and the cost and availability of hedging instruments for different terms.

The main hedging instruments used are Cross Currency Swaps, and dollar/UF and dollar/peso exchange insurance.

As of March 31, 2006, the interest bearing debt in original currency expressed in dollars was US$ 888 million, including US$ 550 million in financial liabilities in dollars, US$ 250 million of debt expressed in “unidades de fomento” and US$ 88 million of debt in Chilean pesos. In this manner USCh$ 550 million corresponds to debt directly exposed to the variations of the dollar.

Simultaneously, the Company had Cross Currency Swaps, dollar/UF, dollar/peso exchange insurance and assets in dollars that resulted, as of the end of the first quarter 2006 in close to 0% exposure to foreign exchange.

Financial risk due to floating interest rate fluctuations.

The policy for hedging interest rates seeks to reduce the negative impact on financial expenses due to interest rate increases.

As of March 31, 2006, the Company had debt at variable interest rates Libor and TAB, mainly for bank loans.


28

To protect the Company from increases in the floating interest rates, derivative financial instruments have been used, particularly Cross Currency Swaps (which protect the Libor rate), to limit the future fluctuation of interest rates. As of March 31, 2006 this has allowed the Company to end with an exposure of 14% of the total interest bearing debt in original currency.
