DISTRIBUTIONS

The Board of Directors of the Fund has implemented a managed distribution policy of paying quarterly distributions at an annual rate, set once a year, that is a percentage of the rolling average of the Fund’s prior four quarter-end net asset values. The current rolling distribution rate is 10%. This policy is subject to regular review by the Fund’s Board of Directors. The distributions are made from current income, supplemented by realized capital gains and, to the extent necessary, paid-in capital. Persons who purchase Shares in this offering will be entitled to any regular quarterly distributions the record date for which occurs after such Shares are purchased.  On September 3, 2013, the Board of Directors of the Fund declared a quarterly distribution of $0.36 per Share, payable on October 18, 2013 to all shareholders of record as of September 30, 2013.

The amounts of the last four distributions paid by the Fund are as set out below:

See “Dividends and Distributions” in the accompanying Prospectus.

SUMMARY OF FUND EXPENSES

The following table and example are intended to assist you in understanding the various costs and expenses directly or indirectly associated with investing in Shares of the Fund. Some of the percentages indicated in the table below are estimates and may vary.

(1)                                 Represents the estimated commission with respect to the Shares being sold in this offering, which the Fund will pay to JonesTrading in connection with the sales of Shares effected by JonesTrading in this offering. While JonesTrading is entitled to a commission of 1% to 3% of the gross sales price for Shares sold, with the exact amount to be agreed upon by the parties, the Fund has assumed, for purposes of this offering, that JonesTrading will receive a commission of 1.50% of such gross sales price. This is the only sales load to be paid in connection with this offering. There is no guarantee that there will be any sales of the Shares pursuant to this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus. Actual sales of the Shares under this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus, if any, may be less than as set forth under “Capitalization” below. In addition, the price per share of any such sale may be greater or less than the price set forth under “Capitalization” below, depending on market price of the Shares at the time of any such sale.

S-6

(2)                                 If you participate in the Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Stock Purchase Plan sponsored and administered by Computershare Trust Company, N.A., you will be subject to any fees imposed by Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

(3)                                 See “Management of the Fund—The Investment Adviser and the Sub-Adviser” in the Prospectus for additional information. The management fee excludes taxes paid by the Fund.

(4)                                 “Other Expenses” have been estimated for the current fiscal year and includes estimated total expenses to be incurred by the Fund in connection with this offering of $135,000, excluding Sales Load, as described under “Plan of Distribution” below.

(5)                                 Includes an administration fee of 0.02% of average net assets attributable to the Fund’s common stock. See “Management of the Fund - Administrator” in the Prospectus for additional information.

(6)                                 The Investment Adviser has contractually agreed to waive 0.21% of the annual advisory fees based on the Fund’s Average Weekly Base Amount, calculated weekly and paid quarterly.  The “Average Weekly Based Amount” is defined as the average of the lesser of the market value of the Fund’s outstanding shares and the Fund’s net assets, determined as of the last trading day of each week during a quarter.  The net total annual operating expenses after applying the advisory fee waiver is 1.66%.  The contractual advisory fee waiver shall continue in effect until March 1, 2014, unless otherwise agreed by the Investment Adviser and the Fund.

Example

An investor would pay the following expenses on a $1,000 investment in the Fund, assuming (1) Total Annual Operating Expenses of 1.66%, (2) a Sales Load of 1.50%, and (3) a 5% annual return:

The “Example” assumes that all dividends and other distributions are reinvested at net asset value and that the percentage amounts listed in the table above under Total Annual Operating Expenses remain the same in the years shown. The above table and example and the assumption in the example of a 5% annual return are required by regulations of the SEC that are applicable to all investment companies; the assumed 5% annual return is not a prediction of, and does not represent, the projected or actual performance of the Shares.

The example should not be considered a representation of past or future expenses, and the Fund’s actual expenses may be greater than or less than those shown. Moreover, the Fund’s actual rate of return may be greater or less than the hypothetical 5% return shown in the example.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Sales of the Shares, if any, under this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus may be made in negotiated transactions or transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” as defined in Rule 415 under the 1933 Act, including sales made directly on the NYSE MKT or sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange. There is no guarantee that there will be any sales of the Shares pursuant to this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus. Actual sales, if any, of the Shares under this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus may be less than as set forth in this paragraph. In addition, the price per share of any such sale may be greater or less than the price set forth in this paragraph, depending on the market price of the Shares at the time of any such sale. As a result, the actual net proceeds the Fund receives may be more or less than the amount of net proceeds estimated in this Prospectus Supplement. Assuming the sale of all of the Shares offered under

S-7

this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus, at the sale price of $13.56 per share for the Shares, as reported by the NYSE MKT as of September 10, 2013, the Fund estimates that the net proceeds of this offering will be approximately $23,707,617.73 after deducting the estimated sales load and the estimated offering expenses payable by the Fund.

The Fund intends to invest substantially all of the net proceeds of this offering in accordance with its investment objective and policies within approximately 60 days after completion of the offering. Pending such investment, the Fund anticipates investing the proceeds in short-term securities issued by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities or in high quality, short-term or long-term debt obligations or money market instruments.

S-8

CAPITALIZATION

The Fund may offer and sell up to 2,600,000 of its Shares, par value $0.001 per share, from time to time through JonesTrading as its agent for the offer and sale of the Shares under this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus. As of September 10, 2013, there were 1,748,867 Shares remaining under the sales agreement.  There is no guarantee that there will be any sales of the Shares pursuant to this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus. The table below assumes that the Fund will sell 1,748,867 Shares (the number of Shares remaining under the sales agreement as of September 10, 2013), at a price of $13.56 per share (the sale price per share of the Shares on the NYSE MKT on September 10, 2013). Actual sales, if any, of the Shares under this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus may be less than as set forth in the table below. In addition, the price per share of any such sale may be greater or less than $13.56, depending on the market price of the Shares at the time of any such sale. To the extent that the market price per share of the Shares, less applicable commissions, on any given day is less than the net asset value per share on such day, the Fund will instruct JonesTrading not to make any sales on such day.

The following table sets forth the capitalization of the Fund (i) on an actual basis as of December 31, 2012 (audited), (ii) on an actual basis as of June 30, 2013 (unaudited), (iii) on an actual basis as of September 10, 2013 (unaudited), and (iv) on a pro forma basis as adjusted to reflect the assumed sale of 1,748,867  Shares (the number of Shares remaining under the sales agreement as of September 10, 2013) at $13.56 per Share (the sale price per share of the Shares on the NYSE MKT on September 10, 2013), in an offering under this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus.

(1)           As adjusted, additional paid-in capital reflects the issuance of 1,748,867 Shares offered hereby ($23,358,917), less $0.001 par value per Share ($1,748.87), less the sales load borne by the Fund ($355,720) related to the issuance of such shares.

S-9

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Under the sales agreement among the Fund, the Investment Adviser and JonesTrading, upon written instructions from the Fund, JonesTrading will use its commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell, as the Fund’s agent, the Shares under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the sales agreement. JonesTrading’s sales efforts will continue until the Fund instructs JonesTrading to suspend sales. The Fund will instruct JonesTrading as to the amount of Shares to be sold by JonesTrading. The Fund may instruct JonesTrading not to sell Shares if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by the Fund in any instruction. The Fund or JonesTrading may suspend the offering of Shares upon proper notice and subject to other conditions.

JonesTrading will provide written confirmation to the Fund no later than the opening of the trading day on the NYSE MKT immediately following the trading day on which Shares are sold under the sales agreement. Each confirmation will include the number of shares sold on the preceding day, the net proceeds to the Fund and the compensation payable by the Fund to JonesTrading in connection with the sales.

The Fund will pay JonesTrading commissions for its services in acting as agent in the sale of Shares. JonesTrading will be entitled to compensation of 100 to 300 basis points of the gross sales price per share of any Shares sold under the sales agreement, with the exact amount of such compensation to be mutually agreed upon by the Fund and JonesTrading from time to time. The Fund has also agreed to pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for JonesTrading in connection with the transactions contemplated under the sales agreement (provided such fees and expenses (a) shall not exceed $75,000 in connection with the preparation and execution of the sales agreement, including certain related customary fees incurred in connection with commencing the offering and (b) shall not exceed $30,000 on an annual basis in each annual period following the date of the sales agreement). There is no guarantee that there will be any sales of the Shares pursuant to this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus. Actual sales, if any, of the Shares under this Prospectus Supplement and the accompanying Prospectus may be less than as set forth in this paragraph. In addition, the price per share of any such sale may be greater or less than the price set forth in this paragraph, depending on the market price of the Shares at the time of any such sale. Assuming 1,748,867 of the Shares offered hereby are sold at a market price of $13.56 per share (the sale price for the Shares on the NYSE MKT on September 10, 2013), the Fund estimates that the total expenses for the offering, excluding compensation payable to JonesTrading under the terms of the sales agreement, would be approximately $135,000, which are included under “Other Expenses” in the fee table above and are part of the Fund’s “Total Annual Operating Expenses”.

Settlement for sales of Shares will occur on the third business day (or such earlier day as is industry practice for regular-way trading) following the date on which such sales are made, or on some other date that is agreed upon by the Fund and JonesTrading in connection with a particular transaction, in return for payment of the net proceeds to the Fund. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in an escrow, trust or similar arrangement.

S-10

In connection with the sale of the Shares on the Fund’s behalf, JonesTrading may, and will with respect to sales effected in an “at the market offering,” be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the 1933 Act, and the compensation of JonesTrading may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. The Fund has agreed to provide indemnification and contribution to JonesTrading against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the 1933 Act.

The offering of the Shares pursuant to the sales agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (1) the sale of all Shares subject to the sales agreement or (2) termination of the sales agreement. The sales agreement may be terminated by the Fund in its sole discretion at any time by giving notice to JonesTrading. In addition, JonesTrading may terminate the sales agreement under the circumstances specified in the sales agreement and in its sole discretion at any time following a period of 12 months from the date of the sales agreement by giving notice to the Fund.

The principal business address of JonesTrading is 780 Third Avenue, 3rd Floor, New York, New York 10017.

Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP will rely as to matters of Maryland law on the opinion of Venable LLP, 750 E. Pratt Street, Suite 900, Baltimore, Maryland 21202.

The Fund’s portfolio of Chilean securities, under normal market conditions, will consist principally of Chilean equity securities. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved. Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited (“AAML” or the “Investment Adviser”) serves as the Fund’s investment adviser. The address of the Fund is 1735 Market Street, 32nd Floor, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103, and the Fund’s telephone number is (866) 839-5205.

We may offer, from time to time, in one or more offerings, our shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Shares”). Shares may be offered at prices and on terms to be set forth in one or more supplements to this Prospectus (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”). You should read this Prospectus and the applicable Prospectus Supplement carefully before you invest in our Shares.

Our Shares may be offered directly to one or more purchasers, through agents designated from time to time by us, or to or through underwriters or dealers. The Prospectus Supplement relating to the offering will identify any agents or underwriters involved in the sale of our Shares, and will set forth any applicable purchase price, fee, commission or discount arrangement between us and our agents or underwriters, or among our underwriters, or the basis upon which such amount may be calculated. We may not sell any of our Shares through agents, underwriters or dealers without delivery of a Prospectus Supplement describing the method and terms of the particular offering of our Shares.

Our Shares are listed on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “CH.” The sale price of our Shares, as reported by the NYSE MKT on August 30, 2013, was $13.67 per Share. The net asset value of our Shares at the close of business on August 30, 2013 was $11.60 per Share.

An investment in the Shares involves certain risks and special considerations, including risks associated with currency fluctuations. Investing in the Fund’s common stock may be speculative and involve a high degree of risk and should not constitute a complete investment program. Investment in Chile involves certain special considerations not typically associated with investments in the United States. Both practices entail risks. For a discussion of these and other risks, see “Risks and Special Considerations.”

Shares of closed-end investment companies frequently trade at a discount to their net asset value. If the Fund’s Shares trade at a discount to its net asset value, the risk of loss may increase for purchasers in a public offering. See “Risks and Special Considerations-Net Asset Value Discount.”

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved these securities or passed upon the adequacy of this Prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

As of the date of this Prospectus, the Fund has not issued any shares of preferred stock and the Board of Directors has no present intention to issue shares of preferred stock. All references to “stock” or “shares” herein refer to common stock, unless otherwise indicated. Each share of common stock has equal voting, dividend, distribution and liquidation rights. The Shares outstanding are, and, when issued, the Shares offered by this Prospectus will be, fully paid and non-assessable. Shares are not redeemable and have no preemptive, conversion or cumulative voting rights. The number of Shares outstanding as of August 30, 2013 was 9,386,497.

The Fund’s outstanding Shares are, and when issued, the Shares offered by this Prospectus will be, publicly held and listed and traded on the NYSE MKT. The Fund determines its net asset value on a daily basis. The following table sets forth, for the quarters indicated, the highest and lowest daily closing prices on the NYSE MKT per share of common stock, and the net asset value per share and the premium to or discount from net asset value, on the date of each of the high and low market prices. The table also sets forth the number of Shares traded on the NYSE MKT during the respective quarters.

On August 30, 2013, the per Share NAV was $11.60 and the per Share market price was $13.67, representing a 17.84% premium over such NAV.

The Fund’s Shares have traded in the market below, at and above net asset value since the commencement of the Fund’s operations. The Fund cannot determine the reasons why the Fund’s Shares trade at a premium to or discount from net asset value, nor can the Fund predict whether its Shares will trade in the future at a premium to or discount from net asset value, or the level of any premium or discount. Shares of closed-end investment companies frequently trade at a discount from net asset value.

The following information regarding the Fund’s authorized shares is as of August 30, 2013.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

The Fund’s investment objective is to seek total return, consisting of capital appreciation and income, by investing primarily in Chilean securities. There can be no assurance that the Fund’s investment objective will be achieved. At the Fund’s inception, the Fund adopted a fundamental investment policy that the Fund will invest primarily in Chilean equity and debt securities. That fundamental policy may only be changed upon the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities.  A “majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities” as used in this Prospectus means the lesser of (a) 67% or more of the shares of the Fund’s common stock present at a meeting of stockholders, if the holders of 50% of the outstanding shares are present or represented by proxy at the meeting, or (b) more than 50% of the outstanding shares. The Chilean Portfolio, under normal conditions, will consist principally of Chilean equity securities.

The Fund’s Board of Directors has adopted a non-fundamental investment policy for the Fund, pursuant to which the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in Chilean securities. If the Board of Directors elects to change this 80% policy, the Fund will provide shareholders with at least 60 days’ prior notice.

The Fund is designed for investors who want to participate in the Chilean securities markets. The Fund defines Chilean securities as (a) securities of companies, the principal trading market for which is in Chile, (b) securities issued or guaranteed by the Republic of Chile or the Central Bank of Chile, (c) peso-denominated securities issued by companies to finance operations in Chile or (d) securities of companies that derive more than 50% of their revenues or profits from goods or services produced in Chile or sales made in Chile or have more than 50% of their assets in Chile.

Chilean equity securities in which the Fund invests consist predominantly of common stocks, although the Fund may also invest to a limited extent in preferred stocks, convertible securities and, to the extent a market exists for them and investing in them is permitted under Chilean law, warrants.

INVESTMENT POLICIES

The Fund intends its Chilean Portfolio, under normal market conditions, to consist principally of Chilean equity securities. A substantial portion of the equity securities acquired by the Fund are expected to be dividend-paying securities. Chilean companies listed on the stock exchanges are required by law to pay out as dividends at least 30% of annual audited net income, unless shareholders approve a lower dividend distribution. The Fund, however, may invest a substantial portion of its assets in Chilean debt securities when the Investment Adviser believes that it is appropriate to do so in order to achieve the Fund’s investment objective. The Investment Adviser expects to do so, for example, when interest rates on Chilean debt securities are high in comparison with anticipated returns on equity securities. Chilean equity securities in which the Fund invests consist predominantly of common stocks, although the Fund may also invest to a limited extent in preferred stocks, convertible securities and, to the extent a market exists for them and investing in them is permitted under Chilean law, warrants.

The Fund may invest up to 20% of the Chilean Portfolio in unlisted Chilean securities, including investments in new and early-stage companies, provided that not more than 3% of the Chilean Portfolio may be invested in unlisted securities of Chilean companies that, at the time of investment, had less than one year of operations, including operations of predecessor companies. The Fund invests only in unlisted equity securities that, in the opinion of the Investment Adviser, present opportunities for substantial growth over a period of two to five years, notwithstanding that such investments may be illiquid and may present risks not normally existing in publicly owned, more established companies with possibly higher market capitalizations.

Although the Fund invests principally in Chilean equity securities, it may also invest a substantial portion of its assets in Chilean debt securities. Chilean debt securities that the Fund may acquire include bonds, notes and debentures of any maturity of the Chilean government, its agencies and instrumentalities, of the Central Bank of Chile and of banks and other companies determined by the Investment Adviser to be suitable investments for the Fund (including repurchase agreements with respect to obligations of the Chilean government or the Central Bank of Chile). In selecting securities, the Investment Adviser considers the ratings of securities by the public and private credit rating services in Chile, although the Investment Adviser may invest in securities of companies that it determines to be suitable investments for the Fund regardless of their rating. The Fund may invest up to 35% of the Chilean Portfolio in high yield securities. The Fund may not, however, invest more than 5% of the Chilean Portfolio in Chilean debt securities rated C or below by Chilean rating

18

agencies or unrated securities that the Investment Adviser believes to be of comparable quality. Chilean debt securities rated above C have at least a good capacity to pay principal and interest when due, although some of them may be susceptible to being adversely affected by changes in the issuer, the relevant industry or the economy generally. Because interest on most Chilean debt securities is inflation-adjusted, the variation in the value of Chilean debt securities in relation to fluctuations in the value of the Chilean peso tends to be less than would otherwise be the case. Chilean debt securities rated C or below are instruments with an inadequate capacity to pay capital and interest as a result of changes in the issuer, in the industry to which it belongs, or in the economy, and exhibit some probability of lateness in payments or loss of interest. The yields on lower-rated fixed-income securities generally are higher than the yield available on higher-rated securities. However, investments in lower-rated securities may be subject to greater market fluctuations and greater risks of loss of income or principal than higher-rated securities. Chilean securities are rated by a number of both public and private credit rating agencies.

Since investors generally perceive that there are greater risks associated with lower quality debt securities of the type in which the Fund may invest a portion of its assets, the yields and prices of such securities may tend to fluctuate more than those for higher-rated securities. In the lower quality segments of the debt securities market, changes in perceptions of issuers’ creditworthiness tend to occur more frequently and in a more pronounced manner than do changes in higher quality segments of the debt securities market, resulting in greater yield and price volatility. If the Fund invests in high yield securities that are rated C or below, the Fund will incur significant risk. Distressed securities frequently do not produce income while they are outstanding.

To the extent consistent with provisions of the 1940 Act and any administrative exemptions granted by the SEC, the Fund may invest in the securities of other investment companies that invest in Chilean securities. Absent special relief from the SEC, the Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in shares of other investment companies and up to 5% of its total assets in any one investment company, as long as that investment does not represent more than 3% of the voting stock of the acquired investment company. As a stockholder in any investment company, the Fund will bear its ratable share of the company’s expenses, and would remain subject to payment of the Fund’s advisory and administrative fees with respect to assets so invested.

The Fund will not invest 25% or more of its total assets in the securities of companies in the same industry, although the Fund may invest in U.S. government securities without regard to this limitation. In selecting industries and companies for investment by the Fund, the Investment Adviser will consider factors such as overall growth prospects, competitive positions in domestic and export markets, technology, research and development, productivity, labor costs, raw material costs and sources, profit margins, return on investment, capital resources, government regulation and management. This policy may only be changed upon the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities.

The Fund purchases and holds securities with a view toward maximizing the total return to the Fund and does not expect to trade in securities for short-term gain. For cash management purposes, the Fund may invest up to 25% of its net assets in certain short-term investments described below and, for temporary defensive purposes, may invest up to 100% of its assets in those short-term instruments. The prohibition on repatriating capital within five years after capital is brought into Chile may limit the Fund’s ability to make defensive investments during a period in which the Investment Adviser believes that such investments are warranted.

The short-term instruments in which the Fund may invest include (a) obligations of the United States government, its agencies or instrumentalities (including repurchase agreements with respect to these securities); (b) bank obligations (including certificates of deposit, time deposits and bankers’ acceptances) of United States and foreign banks denominated in any currency; (c) floating rate securities and other instruments denominated in any currency issued by international development agencies, banks and other financial institutions, governments and their agencies and instrumentalities and corporations located in countries that are members of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (the “OECD”); (d) obligations of United States corporations that are rated no lower than A-2 by the Standard & Poor’s, a subsidiary of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. or P-2 by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., or the equivalent from another rating service or, if unrated, deemed to be the equivalent by the Investment Adviser; and (e) shares of money market funds that may invest in (a) through (d).

The value of securities denominated or quoted in foreign currencies may be adversely affected by fluctuations in the relative currency exchange rates. the Investment Adviser generally does not seek to hedge against a decline in the value of the Fund’s non-dollar denominated portfolio securities resulting from a currency devaluation or fluctuation. As a consequence, the Fund’s investment performance may be negatively affected by a devaluation of the Chilean peso. Further, the Fund’s investment performance may be significantly affected, either positively or negatively, by currency exchange rates because the U.S. dollar value of securities denominated or quoted in the Chilean peso will increase or decrease in response to changes in the value of such currency in relation to the U.S. dollar. Therefore, the risk of currency devaluations

19

and fluctuations and the effect they may have on the Fund should be carefully considered by investors in determining whether to purchase shares of the Fund.

The Fund reserves the right to conduct currency exchange transactions through entering into forward contracts to purchase or sell currency or currency futures contracts should suitable hedging instruments become available on acceptable terms.

Certain investment policies that the Fund has adopted are “fundamental” policies; that is, these policies may only be changed upon the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities. These fundamental policies are described in the section captioned “Investment Restrictions.” Unless otherwise indicated, the investment policies described above are not “fundamental” and may be changed by the Fund at any time.

Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with banks and broker-dealers when it deems it advisable. A repurchase agreement is a contract under which the Fund acquires a security for a relatively short period (usually no more than one week) subject to the obligations of the seller to repurchase and the Fund to resell such security at a fixed time and price (representing the Fund’s cost plus interest). The Investment Adviser will monitor the value of such securities daily to determine that the value equals or exceeds the repurchase price. Under the 1940 Act, repurchase agreements are considered to be loans made by the Fund which are collateralized by the securities subject to repurchase. See also “Risks and Special Considerations.”

Loans of Portfolio Securities

The Fund’s investment policies permit the Fund to enter into securities lending agreements. Under such agreements, the Fund may lend to borrowers (primarily banks and broker-dealers) portfolio securities with an aggregate market value of up to one-third of the Fund’s total assets when it deems advisable. Any such loans must be secured by collateral (consisting of any combination of cash, U.S. government securities, irrevocable bank letters of credit or other high quality debt securities) in an amount at least equal, on a daily marked-to-market basis, to the current market value of the securities loaned. Cash collateral will be invested by the lending agent in short-term instruments, money market mutual funds or other collective investment funds, and income from these investments will be allocated among the Fund, the borrower and the lending agent. The Fund may terminate a loan after such notice period as is provided for the particular loan. The Fund will receive from the borrower amounts equivalent to any cash payments of interest, dividends and other distributions with respect to the loaned securities, although the tax treatment of such payments may differ from the treatment of distributions paid directly by the issuer to the Fund. The Fund also has the option to require non-cash distributions on the loaned securities to be credited to its account. The terms of the Fund’s lending arrangement includes provisions to permit the Fund to vote the loaned securities. See also “Risks and Special Considerations.”

Foreign Investments in Chile

The Central Bank of Chile is responsible for, among other things, monetary policies and for exchange controls in Chile. According to its regulations, contained in the Compendio de Normas de Cambios Internacionales of the Central Bank of Chile, foreign investments must be carried out through Chile’s Mercado Cambiario Formal, or the Formal Exchange Market, and reported to the Central Bank of Chile. The Formal Exchange Market includes all commercial banks and certain exchange houses and stock broker dealers authorized by the Central Bank pursuant to Chapter III of the Compendio de Normas de Cambios Internacionales. In accordance with the Central Bank of Chile regulations, foreign currency payments or remittances abroad (outside of Chile) or made with funds held abroad, that correspond to capital, interest, inflation adjustments, profits, dividends or other benefits, must be carried out through the Formal Exchange Market and reported to the Central Bank of Chile. No prior approval is currently required from the Central Bank of Chile to carry out foreign investments or to make remittances abroad, although such transactions must be reported to the Central Bank of Chile after they have been carried out by the Formal Exchange Market entity through which such transactions were made.

Foreign investments can be registered with the Foreign Investment Committee under Decree Law No. 600 of 1974 (as amended) (“Decree Law 600”). Decree Law 600 sets forth the general rules applicable to foreign investors and governs new foreign investment in freely convertible currency, which must be made through the Formal Exchange Market, as well as in assets, technology and investment-related credits and capitalized earnings with a right to transfer abroad. The Foreign Investment Committee, acting through its authorized representative on behalf of the Republic of Chile, enters into a contract with each foreign investor (the “Foreign Investment Agreement”), which stipulates, among other rights and obligations, the time period in which the investments must be made. In the case of mining investments, the period is generally eight years; in all others, generally three years. A foreign closed-end fund can apply to the SVS for authorization to operate under Law No. 18,657 as a foreign capital investment fund. A fund so authorized is thus subject to all of the principles and rights established in Decree Law 600, as well as to the specific rules contained in Law No. 18,657. General rules concerning repatriation of capital and earnings are contained in Decree Law 600 and Law No. 18,657. Under either

20

statute, foreign capital funds may remit out of Chile dividends, interest or net realized capital gains at any time. Capital, however, may only be repatriated five years after its entrance into Chile pursuant to Law No. 18,657.

The Fund, as an approved foreign investment capital fund under Law 18,657 and Decree Law 600, and as it is established in each Foreign Investment Agreement, is authorized to purchase foreign currency in the Chilean foreign exchange markets for the purpose of remitting dividends, interest and net realized capital gains abroad pursuant to investment contracts entered between the Fund and the Republic of Chile. Although there is no undertaking by the Central Bank that there will be willing vendors of foreign exchange, the Fund will be treated the same as all other participants in the foreign exchange market.

Diversification rules under Law No. 18,657 provide that investors such as the Fund may not hold more than 5% of any Chilean issuer’s voting stock (subject to an increase to up to 10% for newly-issued shares, including through the exercise of preemptive rights) and not more than 10% of the Chilean Portfolio may be invested in securities issued or guaranteed by any single Chilean issuer (other than securities issued or guaranteed by the Chilean government or by the Central Bank of Chile). Further, at least 80% of the Chilean Portfolio must be invested in shares of Chilean companies or the Chilean government or in debt obligations of Chilean companies or the Chilean government, the maturity of which at the date of purchase exceeds four years, with not less than 60% of the Chilean Portfolio invested in shares of open corporations.

Not more than 40% of the Fund’s total portfolio may be invested in securities issued or guaranteed by entities belonging to the same entrepreneurial group. An “entrepreneurial group” is defined as any group of entities where links in respect to their ownership, administration or credit responsibility exist that make it reasonable to assume that the economic and financial performance of its members is guided by or subordinated to the group’s common interest or that there are shared financial risks in credits granted to them or in the acquisition of securities issued by them.

If any of these percentage limitations is exceeded, the SVS will require that the excess be corrected during a specific period of between 60 and 180 days. The excess can be corrected by a sale of the amount of securities causing the limitations to be exceeded, by a purchase of securities of other issuers or by the fluctuation in value of one or more of the Fund’s portfolio holdings. Failure to achieve compliance during the applicable time period would result in the Fund becoming subject to regular Chilean tax rates for foreign investors at the end of the period for correcting the excessive investment, as well as to other penalties. The Chilean diversification tests are applied at cost at the time of investment.

Law No. 18,657 provides that the Fund, together with all other foreign capital investment funds subject to that law, may not own in the aggregate, directly or indirectly, more than 25% of the shares issued by any listed or unlisted corporation. Because other funds that are subject to Law No. 18,657 also make investments in Chile, available investment opportunities for the Fund may be reduced, which may adversely affect the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective and its performance. In order to avoid the risk of having to sell shares at an inopportune time, the Fund will seek to ascertain the extent of holdings by any other foreign capital investment fund subject to Law No. 18,657 prior to making an investment, although this information may not be available or, if available, may not be obtainable on a timely basis.

Should any investment restriction imposed by Law No. 18,657 be removed or liberalized, the Fund reserves the right to invest accordingly, without stockholder approval, except to the extent that such investment conflicts with the Fund’s investment objective or its fundamental investment restrictions.

Except for the diversification rules described above for entities such as the Fund operating under Law No. 18,657, there are generally no percentage limitations on foreign holdings or restrictions applicable to foreign ownership of local enterprises and joint ventures that are not also applicable to Chilean investors. Foreign investors are prohibited, however, from owning television stations and are limited in their ability to own newspaper publishers, other media entities and a limited number of other types of companies. Neither Chilean nor foreign investors may make certain types of investments near the country’s borders or engage in uranium mining (except through contracts with the government), and certain other activities require the receipt of a government license. In addition, the Fund has agreed with the Chilean government not to acquire unlisted shares of corporations that are foreign capital investment funds, brokers, stock exchanges or companies that are related to the Chilean administrator for the Fund, BTG Pactual Chile S.A. Administradora de Fondos de Inversion de Capital Extranjero (“BTG Pactual Chile,” formerly, Celfin Capital S.A. Administradora de Fondos de Capital Extranjero).

The Investment Adviser intends for the Fund to comply with the diversification limitations and other investment restrictions to which it is subject and believes that, under current market conditions, doing so will not significantly adversely affect the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. If the Fund fails to comply with these restrictions after the expiration of the period set forth in the notice of its noncompliance, the tax rate applicable to remittances of amounts exceeding original capital would be lost with respect to subsequent remittances and a tax at a current effective rate up to 35% (determined after taking into account Chilean withholding taxes and tax credits applicable to such withholding tax) on amounts distributed or remitted out of Chile would be imposed on such amounts. If the Fund’s favorable tax

21

treatment were forfeited, the Fund nonetheless would continue to be prohibited from repatriating capital out of Chile during the five years after the capital is brought into Chile.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

The following restrictions are fundamental policies, which cannot be changed without the approval of the holders of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities. In the event that the Fund issues preferred shares, changes in investment restrictions would also require approval by a majority of the outstanding preferred shares, voting as a separate class. If a percentage restriction on investment or use of assets set forth below is adhered to at the time a transaction is effected, later changes in a percentage resulting from changing values will not be considered a violation.

The Fund may not:

1.                                      Invest 25% or more of the total value of its assets in a particular industry. This restriction does not apply to investments in United States government securities.

2.                                      Issue senior securities, borrow or pledge its assets, except that the Fund may borrow from a bank for temporary or emergency purposes in amounts not exceeding 5% (taken at the lower of cost or current value) of its total assets (not including the amount borrowed) and may also pledge its assets to secure such borrowings; provided that the Fund may borrow from a bank an amount not exceeding 33 1/3% of its total assets (not including the amount borrowed) for the purpose of (a) obtaining amounts necessary to make distributions for qualification as a registered investment company or to avoid imposition of an excise tax under United States tax laws and (b) to pay Fund expenses outside Chile, and not for the purpose of leveraging. Additional investments may not be made when borrowings exceed 5% of the Fund’s total assets.

3.                                      Lend money to other persons except through the purchase of debt obligations and the entering into of repurchase agreements in the United States or Chile consistent with the Fund’s investment policies.

4.                                      Make short sales of securities or maintain a short position in any security.

5.                                      Purchase securities on margin, except such short-term credits as may be necessary or routine for the clearance or settlement of transactions and the maintenance of margin with respect to forward contracts or other hedging transactions.

6.                                      Underwrite securities of other issuers, except insofar as the Fund may be deemed an underwriter under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in selling portfolio securities.

7.                                      Purchase or sell commodities or real estate, except that the Fund may invest in securities secured by real estate or interests in real estate or in securities issued by companies, including real estate investment trusts, that invest in real estate or interests in real estate, and may purchase and sell forward contracts on foreign currencies to the extent permitted under applicable law.

Additional Chilean Restrictions

In addition to the foregoing restrictions, the Fund is subject to Law No. 18,657, which limits the Chilean Portfolio to:

1.                                      Shares of Chilean “open corporations,” i.e., corporations that publicly offer their shares;

2.                                      Securities issued or guaranteed by the Chilean government;

3.                                      Securities issued by the Central Bank of Chile;

4.                                      Securities issued or guaranteed by Chilean banks or financial institutions;

5.                                      Letters of credit issued by Chilean banks, financial institutions or other authorized entities;

6.                                      Bonds and negotiable instruments registered in the Chilean Securities Register;

7.                                      Quotas of investment funds; and

8.                                      Other securities duly authorized by the SVS.

In this regard, the SVS, through Communication No. 908, authorized the Fund (and has authorized other entities operating under Law No. 18,657) to make the following investments:

22

(a)         Securities of unlisted corporations. The Fund may invest up to 20% of the Chilean Portfolio in these instruments. The Fund has voluntarily adopted a policy of limiting, to not more than 3% of the Chilean Portfolio, its investments in unlisted securities of Chilean corporations that, at the time of the investment, had less than one year of operations, including operations of predecessor companies.

(b)         Forward and swap transactions. Under Communication No. 908, the maximum amount at any time that the Fund may invest in these types of transactions shall be equal the net value of its assets.

(c)          Futures on FX or IPSA. Under Communication No. 908, the investment in these instruments may not exceed a 10% of the Fund’s assets, valued at market price.

(d)         Repurchase transactions, provided, however, that they are made on debt securities held in the Fund’s portfolio.

(e)          Mutual funds shares. Under Communication No. 908, the Fund may invest up to 10% of the Chilean Portfolio in these instruments.

(f)           Investment funds shares. Under Communication No. 908, the Fund may invest up to 10% of the Chilean Portfolio in these instruments.

Diversification rules under Law No. 18,657 provide that the Fund may not hold more than 5% of any Chilean issuer’s voting stock (subject to an increase of up to 10% for newly-issued shares, including through the exercise of preemptive rights) and not more than 10% of the Chilean Portfolio may be invested in securities issued or guaranteed by a single Chilean issuer (other than securities issued or guaranteed by the Chilean government or by the Central Bank of Chile). Further, at least 80% of the Chilean Portfolio must be invested in shares or debt obligations of Chilean companies or the Chilean government, the maturity of such debt obligations at the date of purchase must not exceed four years, with not less than 60% of the Chilean Portfolio invested in shares of open corporations.  Additionally, not more than 40% of the Fund´s total portfolio may be invested in securities issued or guaranteed by entities belonging to the same entrepreneurial group.

Law No. 18,657 provides that the Fund, together with all other foreign capital investment funds subject to that law, may not own in the aggregate, directly or indirectly, more than 25% of the shares issued by any listed or unlisted corporation. If the 25% limitation is exceeded, the foreign capital investment fund that made the purchase causing the limit to be exceeded must divest the excess shares within a 60- to 180-day period prescribed by the SVS. As other funds subject to Law No. 18,657 make investments in Chile, available investment opportunities for the Fund may be reduced, which may adversely affect the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective and its performance. In order to avoid the risk of having to sell shares at an inopportune time, the Fund will seek to ascertain the extent of holdings by any other foreign capital investment fund subject to Law No. 18,657 prior to making an investment, although this information may not be available or, if available, may not be obtainable on a timely basis.

Pursuant to Law No. 18,657, the Fund is prohibited from borrowing money in Chile.

Should any investment restriction imposed by Law No. 18,657 be removed or liberalized, the Fund reserves the right to invest accordingly, without stockholder approval, except to the extent that such investment conflicts with the Fund’s investment objective or its fundamental investment restrictions.

RISKS AND SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

An investment in the Fund involves certain risks and considerations, including risks and considerations not typically associated with funds that invest only in U.S. securities. These risks and considerations are described below.

General

The Fund is a non-diversified, closed-end investment company designed primarily as a long-term investment and not as a trading tool. The Fund invests generally in a portfolio of Chilean securities. An investment in the Fund’s Shares may be speculative and involves a high degree of risk. The Fund should not be considered a complete investment program. Due to the uncertainty in all investments, there can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

Investment and Market Risk

An investment in the Fund’s Shares is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of the entire principal amount that you invest.  Your investment in Shares represents an indirect investment in the securities owned by the Fund.  The value of these securities, like other market investments, may move up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably.  The value of the securities in which the Fund invests will affect the value of the Shares.  Your Shares at any point in time may be worth less than your original investment, even after taking into account the reinvestment of Fund dividends and distributions.  The financial crisis that began in 2008 has caused a significant decline in the value and liquidity of many securities of issuers worldwide. In response to the crisis, governments and central banks around the world have taken steps to support financial markets. The withdrawal of this support, failure of efforts to respond to the crisis, or investor perception

23

that such efforts are not succeeding could also negatively affect financial markets generally as well as the value and liquidity of certain securities.

Chilean Securities Risk

Because the Fund’s investments are primarily in Chilean securities, the Fund is particularly vulnerable to loss in the event of adverse political, economic, financial and other developments that affect Chile, including fluctuations of Chilean currency versus the U.S. dollar. Like other investors in the Chilean securities markets, the Fund is subject to general economic and political conditions in Chile. The Fund’s investing in Chilean securities involves certain considerations not typically associated with investing in the United States, including generally (a) controls on foreign investment and limitations on repatriation of capital invested in Chile; (b) greater price volatility, substantially less liquidity and significantly smaller market capitalization of the Chilean securities markets; (c) currency devaluation and other currency exchange rate fluctuations; (d) more substantial governmental involvement in the economy; and (e) political uncertainty and other considerations. More specifically, (1) the Fund may not repatriate capital for five years after investment in Chile except under limited circumstances to pay expenses; (2) there can be no assurance that Chilean inflation might not adversely affect the performance of the Chilean economy or its securities market; (3) governmental and political events in Chile could affect future economic policies, specifically, strengthened or lessened restrictions on and government intervention in international trade and the risk of armed military conflict; (4) the impact on the economy as a result of potential civil war and social instability as a result of religious, ethnic and/or socioeconomic unrest; (5) because of the limited forward market for the purchase of dollars in Chile and the limited circumstances under which the Fund hedges against declines in the value of the Chilean peso generally, the Fund will be adversely affected by Chilean peso devaluations against the U.S. dollar; (6) the Fund’s ability to make defensive investments may be limited by the application of repatriation restrictions and requirements to maintain minimum percentages of assets in shares of Chilean companies; and (7) due to differences between U.S. and Chilean accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards, certain material disclosures may not be made by issuers of, and less information may be available to the Fund and other investors investing in, Chilean securities.

On March 25, 2011, the Fund filed an application with the Chilean Foreign Investment Committee to enter into a foreign investment contract pursuant to which the proceeds of this offering will be invested in Chile. On April 21, 2011, the Executive Vice President of the Foreign Investment Committee granted the authorization to invest in Chile under this application, in advance of the Foreign Investment Committee formal approval. Pursuant to the authorization of the Executive Vice President of the Foreign Investment Committee, the Fund has the right to invest the proceeds of this offering in Chile at any time. The Fund received formal approval from the Foreign Investment Committee at a meeting held on December 26, 2011.  On January 13, 2012, the Fund entered into a Foreign Investment Agreement with the State of Chile formalizing the Fund’s right to invest in Chile up to an amount of USD 75,000,000 within three years of the date of the agreement. See “Investment Policies — Foreign Investments in Chile” for more information about the Fund’s investment contract arrangements with the State of Chile.

The Fund is subject to supervision and regulation by the SVS. Failure by the Fund to comply with diversification or other SVS requirements applicable to the Fund could, in addition to causing the loss of certain favorable Chilean tax treatment for the Fund, result in the assessment of fines by the SVS or other disciplinary actions. Chilean accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards are not identical to United States standards and, therefore, certain material disclosures may not be made by issuers of, and less information may be available to investors investing in, Chilean securities in comparison to United States securities.

Central and South American Regional Economic Risk

The Chilean economy may be affected by the economies of other Central and South American countries. Frequently, high interest rates, economic volatility, inflation, currency devaluations, and high unemployment rates may occur in these economies. These countries may also be subjected to disruptive political or social events. Any event in one country can have a significant effect on this region. Commodities (such as oil, gas, and minerals) represent a significant percentage of the region’s exports, and many economies are particularly sensitive to fluctuations in commodity prices.

Emerging Market Risk

The Fund invests primarily in Chilean securities.  Chile is considered an “emerging market.”  The term “emerging market” refers to an economy that is in the initial stages of industrialization and has been historically marked by low per capita income and lack of capital market transparency, but appears to be implementing political and/or market reforms resulting in greater capital market transparency, increased access for foreign investors and generally improved economic conditions.  Emerging markets tend to be more volatile than mature markets, and as a result, the Fund’s value could move sharply up or down. The risks that apply to foreign investments are magnified in emerging market investments. The registration and settlement arrangements in emerging markets may be less developed than in more mature markets so the operational risks of investing are higher. Emerging market countries may have less stable governments, more volatile

24

currencies and less established markets than those in more developed countries. Political risks and adverse economic circumstances are more likely to arise.

Foreign Securities Risk

Investments in foreign securities that are traded on foreign markets, including Chilean securities, are subject to risks of loss that are different from the risks of investing in U.S. securities. These include the possibility of losses due to currency fluctuations (see “Currency Exchange Rate Fluctuations”), or to adverse political, economic or diplomatic developments in Chile, including possible increases in taxes. Additionally, accounting, auditing, financial reporting standards and other regulatory practices and requirements for securities in which the Fund may invest vary from those applicable to entities subject to regulation in the United States. The Chilean securities market for both listed and unlisted securities may be more volatile and less liquid than the major U.S. markets. In addition, the cost to the Fund of buying, selling and holding securities in the Chilean market may be higher than in the United States. Any higher expenses of non-U.S. investing may reduce the amount the Fund can earn on its investments and typically results in a higher operating expense ratio than for investment companies that invest only in the United States. Regulatory oversight of the Chilean securities market may differ from that of U.S. markets. There also may be difficulty in invoking legal protections across borders.

Equity Securities Risk

Equity securities, such as common stock, generally represent an ownership interest in a company.  The value of equity securities, including common stock, preferred stock and convertible stock, will fluctuate in response to factors affecting the particular company, as well as broader market and economic conditions. Moreover, in the event of the company’s bankruptcy, claims of certain creditors, including bondholders, will have priority over claims of common stock holders and are likely to have varying types of priority over holders of preferred and convertible stock.

Consistent with its objective, the Fund will invest a substantial portion of its assets in Chilean equity securities. Although equity securities have historically generated higher average returns than fixed income securities, equity securities have also experienced significantly more volatility in those returns. An adverse event, such as an unfavorable earnings report, may depress the value of a particular equity security held by the Fund. Also, the prices of equity securities, particularly common stocks, are sensitive to general movements in the stock market. The Fund’s share price can fall because of weakness in the Chilean market, a particular industry or specific holdings. The Chilean market as a whole can decline for many reasons, including adverse political or economic developments in Chile or elsewhere, changes in investor psychology, or heavy institutional selling. The prospects for an industry or company may deteriorate because of a variety of factors, including disappointing earnings or changes in the competitive environment. Investments in futures and options, if any, are subject to additional volatility and potential losses.

High Yield/Junk Bond Securities Risk

Although the Fund invests principally in Chilean equity securities, it may invest a substantial portion of its assets in Chilean debt securities when AAML believes that it is appropriate to do so in order to achieve the Fund’s investment objective of total return. The Fund may invest in Chilean debt securities of any rating, including high-yield securties. Investment in high-yield securities involves substantial risk of loss. Below investment grade non-convertible debt securities or comparable unrated securities, as determined by AAML, are commonly referred to as “junk bonds” and are considered predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s ability to pay interest and principal and are susceptible to default or decline in market value due to adverse economic and business developments. The market values for high yield securities tend to be very volatile, and these securities are less liquid than investment grade debt securities. If the Fund invests in such securities, your investment in the Fund is subject to the following specific risks:

·         increased price sensitivity to changing interest rates and to a deteriorating economic environment;

·         greater risk of loss due to default or declining credit quality;

·         adverse company-specific events are more likely to render the issuer unable to make interest and/or principal payments; and

·         if a negative perception of the high yield market develops, the price and liquidity of high yield securities may be depressed. This negative perception could last for a significant period of time.

Adverse changes in economic conditions are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity of a high yield issuer to make principal payments and interest payments than an investment grade issuer. An economic downturn could severely affect the ability of highly leveraged issuers to service their debt obligations or to repay their obligations upon maturity. The secondary market for high yield securities may not be as liquid as the secondary market for more highly rated securities, a factor which may have an adverse effect on the Fund’s ability to dispose of a particular security.

25

There are fewer dealers in the market for high yield securities than for investment grade obligations. The prices quoted by different dealers may vary significantly and the spread between the bid and asked price is generally much larger than for higher quality instruments. Under adverse market or economic conditions, the secondary market for high yield securities could contract further, independent of any specific adverse changes in the condition of a particular issuer, and these instruments may become illiquid. As a result, the Fund could find it more difficult to sell these securities or may be able to sell the securities only at prices lower than if such securities were widely traded. Prices realized upon the sale of such lower rated or unrated securities, under these circumstances, may be less than the prices used in calculating the Fund’s NAV.

Inflation Risk

Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the real value of the Fund’s Shares and dividends can decline. Chile historically has had a volatile inflation rate, and if Chile’s inflation rate were to enter a period of extreme volatility, the value of the Fund’s holdings in Chilean securities would fluctuate correspondingly.

Management Risk

AAML’s judgment about the attractiveness, relative value or potential appreciation of a particular security or investment strategy may prove to be incorrect.

Conflicts of Interest Risk

AAML’s advisory fees are based on the lower of the Fund’s market value or NAV. Consequently, AAML will likely benefit from an increase in the Fund’s net assets resulting from this offering. In addition, a Director who is an “interested person” (as such term is defined under the 1940 Act) of the Fund or the Portfolio Manager of the Fund could benefit indirectly from this offering because of such affiliations.  Currently, there are no Directors who are “interested persons” of the Fund.

Currency Exchange Rate Fluctuations

The Fund does not currently intend to hedge against currency risk; consequently, the Fund’s equity securities are also subject to the risk that some holdings may lose value because of a decline in the value of the Chilean currency or adverse political or economic events in Chile or elsewhere.  Currency exchange rates can fluctuate significantly over short periods and can be subject to unpredictable changes based on a variety of factors, including political developments and currency controls by foreign governments. The Fund will normally hold almost all its assets in Chilean peso denominated securities, although some assets may be denominated in other foreign currencies. Accordingly, a change in the value of the Chilean peso against the U.S. dollar will generally result in a change in the U.S. dollar value of the Fund’s assets. Such a change may thus decrease the Fund’s net asset value.

In addition, although most of the Fund’s income will be received or realized primarily in Chilean pesos, the Fund will be required to compute and distribute its income in U.S. dollars. Therefore, for example, if the exchange rate for the Chilean peso declines after the Fund’s income has been accrued and translated in U.S. dollars, but before the income has been received or converted into U.S. dollars, the Fund could be required to liquidate portfolio securities to make distributions. Similarly, if the exchange rate declines between the time the Fund incurs expenses in U.S. dollars and the time such expenses are paid, the amount of Chilean pesos required to be converted into U.S. dollars in order to pay those expenses will be greater than the Chilean peso equivalent of those expenses at the time they were incurred.  Similar effects may result from the Fund’s investments that are denominated in other foreign currencies.

Currency exchange rate fluctuations can decrease or eliminate income available for distribution or, conversely, increase income available for distribution. For example, in some situations, if certain currency exchange losses exceed net investment income for a taxable year, the Fund would not be able to make ordinary income distributions, and all or a portion of distributions made before the losses were realized but in the same taxable year would be recharacterized as a return of capital to shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, thus reducing shareholders’ cost basis in their Fund shares, or as a capital gain distribution, rather than as an ordinary income dividend.

Liquidity Risk

It may be difficult for the Fund to buy and sell significant amounts of Chilean securities without an unfavorable impact on prevailing market prices. Trading on the Santiago Stock Exchange, Chile’s principal stock exchange, is not as active as trading on the NYSE MKT or other major stock exchanges in the United States. Consequently, larger purchases or sales of these securities by the Fund in a short period of time may cause abnormal movements in the market prices of these securities. As a result, these securities may be difficult to dispose of at a fair price at the times when the Fund believes it is desirable to do so. The Fund may also have difficulty purchasing securities in companies in which the Fund would

26

otherwise invest. Investment of the Fund’s capital in securities that are less actively traded or that over time experience decreased trading volume may restrict the Fund’s ability to take advantage of other market opportunities.

Net Asset Value Discount

Shares of closed-end investment companies frequently trade at a discount from net asset value. This characteristic is a risk separate and distinct from the risk that net asset value will decrease. During the 12-month period ended June 30, 2013, the Fund’s Shares have traded in the market at an average premium over net asset value of 1.31%. The Fund cannot predict whether its Shares in the future will trade at, below or above net asset value. This risk that shares of a closed-end fund might trade at a discount is more significant for investors who wish to sell their shares in a relatively short period of time. For those investors, realization of gain or loss on their investment is likely to be more dependent upon the existence of a premium or discount than upon portfolio performance.

Market Discount Risk

The Fund’s common stock may trade at a discount relative to NAV. See “Description of Shares” for a chart that shows how the market value of the Fund’s Shares has fluctuated compared to its NAV throughout the Fund’s history. The  August 30, 2013 sale price represents a 17.84% premium over the per share NAV on the same day; however, there can be no assurance that this premium will continue after an offering or that the shares will not again trade at a discount, as they have for most of the Fund’s history. Common shares of closed-end investment companies, including the Fund, frequently trade at prices lower than their NAV, but in some cases trade above NAV. The provisions of the 1940 Act require, as a condition to the completion of this offering, that the public offering price of the shares of common stock, less the sales load and discounts, must equal or exceed the NAV per share of the Fund’s common stock (calculated within 48 hours of pricing). An investor who buys the Fund’s common stock in an offering at a price that reflects a premium to NAV may experience a decline in the market value of the shares of common stock independent of any change in the NAV. Whether stockholders will realize a gain or loss upon the sale of the Fund’s shares of common stock depends upon whether the market value of the shares at the time of sale is above or below the price the stockholder paid, taking into account transaction costs for the shares, and is not directly dependent upon the Fund’s NAV. Because the market value of the Fund’s shares of common stock will be determined by factors such as the relative demand for and supply of the shares in the market, general market conditions and other factors beyond the control of the Fund, the Fund cannot predict whether its shares of common stock will trade at, below or above NAV, or below or above the public offering price for the shares of common stock. To the best of the Fund’s knowledge, based upon filings made by the respective entities with the SEC, as of June 30, 2013, two stockholders owned approximately 19.61% of the Fund’s outstanding common stock (see “Principal Holders of Securities”). Any substantial dispositions or acquisitions of common stock by these investors could affect the supply or demand for, and possibly the market price of, the common stock. The Fund’s common stock is designed primarily for long-term investors, and you should not purchase shares of common stock if you intend to sell them shortly after purchase.

Distribution Rate

The Fund has a managed distribution policy under which quarterly distributions, at a rate determined annually by the Board of Directors, are paid from current income, supplemented by realized capital gains and, to the extent necessary, paid-in capital. See “Dividends and Distributions - Managed Distribution Policy.” There can be no assurance that the distribution rate set at any time, or the policy itself, will be maintained. To the extent total distributions for a year exceed the Fund’s net investment income, the difference will be deemed for income tax purposes to have been distributed from realized capital gains (potentially taxable as ordinary income or as long-term capital gain) and/or will be treated as return of capital, as applicable. A return of capital is a return to investors of a portion of their original investment in the Fund.  In general terms, a return of capital would involve a situation in which a Fund distribution (or a portion thereof) represents a return of a portion of a shareholder’s investment in the Fund, rather than making a distribution that is funded from the Fund’s earned income or other profits.  Although return of capital distributions may not be currently taxable, such distributions would decrease the basis of a shareholder’s Shares and therefore may increase a shareholder’s tax liability for capital gains upon a sale of Shares, even if sold at a loss to the shareholder’s original investment.  The Fund’s managed distribution policy may, in certain situations, cause the Fund to make taxable distributions to shareholders in excess of the minimum amounts of such taxable distributions required to avoid liability for federal income and excise taxes. Such excess taxable distributions may, in such situations, cause shareholders to be liable for taxes for which they would not otherwise be liable if the Fund only paid that amount required to avoid liability for federal income and excise taxes. The Fund’s income distributions and its capital and currency gains distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations that may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign currencies.

If the Fund’s investments do not generate sufficient income, the Fund may be required to liquidate a portion of its portfolio to fund these distributions, and therefore a portion or all of such distributions may represent a reduction of the

27

shareholders’ principal investment. Such liquidation might be at a time when independent investment judgment would not dictate such action, increasing the Fund’s overall portfolio turnover (and related transaction costs) and making it more difficult for the Fund to achieve its investment objective.

Non-Diversified Status

The Fund is classified as a “non-diversified” management investment company under the 1940 Act. This means that the Fund is not subject to limits under the 1940 Act as to the proportion of its assets that may be invested in the securities of a single issuer. As a non-diversified investment company, the Fund may therefore invest its assets in securities of a smaller number of issuers, and, as a result, would be subject to greater risk with respect to its portfolio securities. Although the Fund must comply with certain diversification requirements in order to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”), the Fund may be more susceptible to any single economic, political or regulatory occurrence than would be the case if it had elected to diversify its holding sufficiently to be classified as a “diversified” management investment company under the 1940 Act. The Fund, however, is subject to Chilean laws limiting investments in a single issuer and intends to comply with the diversification requirements imposed by the Code for qualification as a regulated investment company.

Unlisted Securities Risk

The Fund may invest up to 20% of the Chilean Portfolio in unlisted Chilean securities. Because the market for unlisted securities is not liquid, it may be difficult for the Fund to sell these securities timely and at a desirable price. If not listed, such securities could nonetheless be resold in privately negotiated transactions, although the price may be lower and the time to dispose of the security may take considerably longer than for listed securities and the sale price may be lower than the price paid by the Fund. Unlisted securities are not subject to the disclosure and other investor protection requirements of Chilean law applicable to listed securities.

Anti-Takeover Charter Provisions

The Fund’s Articles of Incorporation and By-laws include provisions that could limit the ability of other entities or persons to acquire control of the Fund or to change the composition of its Board of Directors. Such provisions could limit the ability of stockholders to sell their shares at a premium over prevailing market prices by discouraging a third party from seeking to obtain control of the Fund. These provisions include staggered terms of office for the Directors, advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals, and super-majority voting requirements for conversion of the Fund to an open-end investment company or certain merger, asset sale or similar transactions. In certain circumstances, these provisions might also inhibit the ability of stockholders to sell their shares at a premium over prevailing market prices. See “Certain Provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law and the Charter and By-laws.”

Market Disruption Risk

Certain events have had a disruptive effect on the securities markets, such as terrorist attacks (including the terrorist attacks in the United States on September 11, 2001), war and other geopolitical events, earthquakes, storms and other disasters. In addition, the equity and debt capital markets in the United States and internationally recently experienced a financial crisis that has caused a significant decline in the value and liquidity of many securities. In response to the crisis, the U.S. and other governments and the Federal Reserve and certain foreign central banks took steps to support financial markets.  The withdrawal of this support could also negatively affect the value and liquidity of certain securities. The Fund cannot predict the effects of similar events in the future on the markets or economy of Chile or other countries and this market environment could make identifying investment risks and opportunities especially difficult for the Investment Adviser.

Tax Risk

The Fund may invest in securities of which the federal income tax treatment may not be clear or may be subject to recharacterization by the IRS or the Chilean IRS. It could be more difficult for the Fund to comply with the United States tax requirements applicable to regulated investment companies, or with the Chilean tax requirements applicable to foreign investors, if the tax characterization of the Fund’s investments or the tax treatment of the income from such investments were successfully challenged by the IRS or by the Chilean IRS. See “Taxation.”

Repurchase Agreements Risk

Repurchase agreements may involve risks in the event of default or insolvency of the seller, including possible delays or restrictions with respect to the Fund’s ability to dispose of the underlying securities, and the possibility that the collateral might not be sufficient to cover any losses incurred by the Fund.

28

Securities Lending Risk

In connection with its loans of portfolio securities, the Fund may be exposed to the risk of delay in recovery of the loaned securities or possible loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower become insolvent. The Fund also bears the risk of loss on the investment of cash collateral. There is also the risk that, in the event of default by the borrower, the collateral might not be sufficient to cover any losses incurred by the Fund. There can be no assurance that the return to the Fund from a particular loan, or from its loans overall, will exceed the related costs and any related losses.

Foreign Custody

The Fund’s custodian generally holds the Fund’s non-U.S. securities and cash in non-U.S. bank sub-custodians and securities depositories — generally in Chile. (See “Management of the Fund—Custodian and Transfer Agent.”) Regulatory oversight of non-U.S. banks and securities depositories may differ from that in the U.S. Additionally, laws applicable to non-U.S. banks and securities depositories may limit the Fund’s ability to recover its assets in the event the non-U.S. bank, securities depository or issuer of a security held by the Fund goes bankrupt.

Tax Considerations

The Fund intends to qualify and to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Code. If it so qualifies, it generally will be relieved of U.S. federal income tax on its investment company taxable income and net capital gains, if any, which it distributes to shareholders in accordance with requirements under the Code. In order to continue to meet the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to minimize its U.S. federal income tax liability, it is the Fund’s policy to distribute substantially all of its net income and capital gains, if any, to shareholders. To the extent that the Fund has earnings available for distribution, its distributions in the hands of shareholders may be treated as ordinary dividend income, although certain distributions may be reported by the Fund as capital gain distributions, which would be treated as long-term capital gain, or qualified dividend income, which may be eligible for long-term capital gain tax rates for a shareholder if certain holding period rules are satisfied by the Fund and the shareholder. However, at this time, the Fund does not expect material amounts of its dividends to be treated as qualified dividend income. Dividends and capital gains distributions paid by the Fund are not expected to qualify for the corporate dividends-received deduction. Distributions in excess of the Fund’s current and accumulated earnings and profits will first reduce a shareholder’s basis in his shares and, after the shareholder’s basis is reduced to zero, will constitute capital gains to the shareholder who holds his shares as capital assets.

Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Code, foreign taxes withheld from distributions or otherwise paid by the Fund may be creditable or deductible by U.S. shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes, if the Fund is eligible to and makes an election to treat the shareholders as having paid those taxes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. No assurance can be given that the Fund will be eligible to make this election each year, but it intends to do so if it is eligible. If the election is made, the foreign withholding taxes paid by the Fund will be includable in the U.S. federal taxable income of shareholders. Non-U.S. investors may not be able to credit or deduct the foreign taxes, but they may be deemed to have additional income from the Fund equal to their share of the foreign taxes paid by the Fund subject to U.S. withholding tax. Investors should review carefully the information discussed under the heading “Taxation” and should discuss with their tax advisers the specific tax consequences of investing in the Fund.

MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND

The Board of Directors

The Board of Directors directs the management of the business and affairs of the Fund, including general supervision of the duties performed by the Investment Adviser and other service providers.

The Investment Adviser

Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited serves as the investment adviser to the Fund (“AAML” or the “Investment Adviser”) pursuant to an advisory contract with the Fund (the “Advisory Agreement”).  AAML, a Scottish company, is authorized and regulated in the U.K. by the Financial Conduct Authority and is a U.S. registered investment adviser under the Advisers Act.  The Investment Adviser is located at Bow Bells House, 1 Bread Street, London, U.K., EC4M 9HH.

The Investment Adviser, in accordance with the Fund’s stated investment objectives, policies and limitations and subject to the supervision of the Fund’s Board of Directors, manages the Fund’s investments and makes investment decisions on behalf of the Fund, including the selection of, and being responsible for the placement of orders with, brokers and dealers to execute the Fund’s portfolio transactions.

The Investment Adviser is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aberdeen Asset Management PLC (“Aberdeen PLC”), which is the parent company of an asset management group managing approximately $317.9 billion in assets as of June 30, 2013 for a range of pension funds, financial institutions, investment trusts, unit trusts, offshore funds, charities and private clients, in addition to U.S. registered investment companies. The registered offices of Aberdeen PLC are located at 10 Queen’s Terrace, Aberdeen, Scotland AB 10 1 YG. Aberdeen PLC, its affiliates and subsidiaries are referred to collectively herein as “Aberdeen.” Aberdeen PLC was formed in 1983 and was first listed on the London Stock Exchange in 1991.

The Advisory Agreement provides that the Fund will pay the Investment Adviser a fee annual rate of 1.20% of the first $50 million of the Fund’s Average Weekly Base Amount, 1.15% of amounts from $50-100 million, 1.10% of amounts from $100-150 million, 1.05% of amounts from $150-200 million and 1.00% of amounts over $200 million, calculated weekly and paid quarterly. Average Weekly Base Amount is defined in the Advisory Agreement as the average of the lesser of the market value of the Fund’s outstanding shares and the Fund’s net assets, determined as of the last trading day of each week during a quarter. Effective March 6, 2013, the Investment Adviser has contractually agreed to waive 0.21% of the annual advisory fee based on the Fund’s Average Weekly Base Amount, calculated weekly and paid quarterly.  The contractual advisory fee waiver shall continue in effect until March 1, 2014, unless otherwise agreed by the Investment Adviser and the Fund.  Prior to March 6, 2013, the Investment Adviser voluntarily waived an equal portion of its advisory fee.

For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012, December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Fund paid management fees of $1,671,818, $1,756,662 and$1,922,135 for advisory services, of which the Fund’s investment adviser waived $220,895, $223,980 and $233,227, respectively.

Prior to February 4, 2012, Celfin Capital Servicios Financieros S.A. (“Celfin” or the “Sub-Adviser”), a closed corporation organized under the laws of Chile, served as sub-adviser to the Fund.  The Sub-Adviser made recommendations to the Fund’s investment adviser as to specific portfolio securities to be purchased, retained, or sold by the Fund and provided or obtained such research and statistical data as was necessary in connection therewith.  As a result of the development of its operations and research coverage in the South American region, the Investment Adviser has appropriate resources and expertise to manage the Fund without the assistance of Celfin as sub-adviser to the Fund.  Accordingly, effective on February 4, 2012, the Sub-Advisory Agreement with Celfin was terminated. The Fund’s investment objective,

30

primary investment strategies, primary risks and management expenses did not and will not change as a result of the termination of Celfin as sub-adviser.

Celfin informed the Fund that the Investment Adviser paid sub-advisory fees of $22,007, $260,556 and $287,115 to Celfin, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

A discussion regarding the basis for the Board of Directors’ approval of the Advisory Agreement is available in the Fund’s annual report to shareholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

Non-U.S.-Resident Directors and Officers

Although the Fund is a Maryland corporation, certain of its Directors and officers (Messrs. Martin Torino, Christian Pittard, Devan Kaloo and Hugh Young and Ms. Joanne Irvine) are non-residents of the United States and have all, or a substantial part, of their assets located outside the United States. None of the Directors or officers has authorized an agent for service of process in the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for U.S. investors to effect service of process upon such Directors and officers within the United States or to effectively enforce judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon civil liabilities of the Directors or officers under the federal securities laws of the United States.

Administrator

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Managed Distribution Policy

The Board of Directors has implemented a managed distribution policy of paying quarterly distributions at an annual rate, set once a year, that is a percentage of the rolling average of the Fund’s prior four quarter-end net asset values. The current rolling distribution rate is 10%. This policy is subject to regular review by the Fund’s Board of Directors. The distributions are made from current income, supplemented by realized capital gains and, to the extent necessary, paid-in capital. Persons who purchase Shares in this offering will be entitled to any regular quarterly distributions the record date for which occurs after such Shares are purchased. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, the Fund made distributions in the amount of $1.60 per Share, of which 8% represented net investment income, 79% represented long-term capital gains and 13% represented return of capital. If the Fund’s distributions were to continue to consist of a large amount of return of capital, it would result in the deterioration of the Fund’s assets.

The exact amount of distributable income for each fiscal year can only be determined as of the end of the Fund’s fiscal year, December 31.  Under Section 19 of the 1940 Act, the Fund is required to indicate the sources of certain distributions to shareholders.  The estimated distribution composition may vary from quarter to quarter because it may be materially impacted by future income, expenses and realized gains and losses on securities and fluctuations in the value of the currencies in which Fund assets are denominated.  Based on generally accepted accounting principles, for the semi-annual period ended June 30, 2013, which includes the distribution payable on July 12, 2013, referenced in the “Financial Highlights” above, the Fund estimates that the distributions consisted of 14% net investment income, 1% short-term capital gains, 34% net realized long-term capital gains and 51% return of capital.

32

If the Fund’s assets do not generate sufficient income and net long-term capital gains, the Fund may be required to liquidate a portion of its portfolio to fund these distributions, and therefore, these payments may represent a reduction of a shareholder’s principal investment. There can be no assurance that the current rolling distribution rate will be maintained in the future. The Board of Directors may determine not to maintain the managed distribution rate at its current level, and it is possible, depending on market conditions, that it may determine to abandon the managed distribution policy altogether.

In March 2010, the Fund obtained an order under section 6(c) of the 1940 Act granting an exemption from section 19(b) and rule 19b-1 under the 1940 Act, permitting the Fund to make periodic distributions of long-term capital gains with respect to its outstanding common stock as frequently as monthly in any one taxable year, subject to certain conditions.

General Distribution Policy

The Fund distributes at least annually to stockholders substantially all of its net investment income (i.e., dividends, interest and other investment income) and net realized short-term capital gains, if any. The Fund determines annually whether to distribute any net realized long-term capital gains in excess of net realized short-term capital losses, including capital loss carryovers, if any. Currently, the Fund expects to distribute any such excess to its stockholders annually. The Fund may choose to distribute such long-term capital gains, partially or wholly, in the form of additional Shares of the Fund rather than cash.  The Fund may choose to retain such long-term capital gains and pay a resultant income tax on such amount, as described more fully below. An additional distribution may be made to the extent necessary to avoid the payment of a 4% U.S. federal excise tax.

Dividends and distributions to stockholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date. The character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for U.S. income tax purposes due to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and tax differences in the character of income and expense recognition. Dividends, interest and net realized capital gains may be remitted out of Chile at any time, subject to a 10% Chilean tax. The 10% Chilean tax is not applicable to capital gains from the sale of shares of open corporations having a stock exchange presence, from bonds issued by certain entities or companies, or from investment funds quotas and mutual fund quotas, provided certain requirements are met. No tax is applied against remittances of capital after the five-year investment period required by Chilean law provided retained net profits have been previously absorbed. For Chilean securities the Fund accrues foreign taxes on realized gains as a liability and reduction of realized/unrealized gains in an amount equal to what the Fund would owe if the securities were sold on the valuation date. Taxes on foreign income are recorded when the related income is recorded. The tax rate is 10%. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Fund incurred $366,287 in Chilean tax relating to foreign income and realized gains. See “Taxation.” Income distributions and capital and currency gains distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations (see “Taxation”), which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign currencies.

DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT AND DIRECT STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

A Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) is available.  The Plan is sponsored and administered by Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the Fund’s transfer agent.  For both purchases and reinvestment purposes, shares acquired through the Plan will be purchased in the open market at the current share price and cannot be issued directly by the Fund. For more information about the Plan and a brochure that includes the terms and conditions of the Plan, please contact Computershare at 1-800-647-0584 or visit www.computershare.com/buyaberdeen.

TAXATION

The following is intended to be a general summary of certain tax consequences that may result to the Fund and its shareholders. It is not intended as a complete discussion of all such tax consequences, nor does it purport to deal with all categories of investors. Investors are therefore advised to consult with their tax advisers before making an investment in the Fund.

The Fund and its Investments

The Fund has qualified and expects to continue to qualify and elect to be treated as a regulated investment company for each taxable year under the Code. The Fund expects that all of its foreign currency gains will be directly related to its principal business of investing in stocks and securities. As a regulated investment company, the Fund will not be subject to United States federal income tax on its net investment income (i.e., income other than its net realized long- and short-term capital gains) and net realized capital gains, if any, that it distributes to its stockholders, provided that an amount equal to at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (i.e., 90% of the sum of its net investment income and net realized short-term capital gains, after taking into account certain required adjustments) for the taxable year is distributed, but the Fund will be subject to tax at regular corporate rates on any income or gains that it does not distribute.

33

Furthermore, the Fund will be subject to a U.S. corporate income tax with respect to such distributed amounts in any year that it fails to qualify as a regulated investment company or fails to satisfy this distribution requirement.

The Fund intends to distribute annually to its stockholders all of its net investment income and net realized short-term capital gains. The Board of Directors of the Fund will determine annually whether to distribute any net realized long-term capital gains in excess of net realized short-term capital losses (including any capital loss carryovers from prior years). The Fund currently expects to distribute any such excess annually to its stockholders. In addition, see above the discussion of the Fund’s distribution policy under “Managed Distribution Policy.”

The Fund maintains and will continue to maintain accounts and calculate income in U.S. dollars. In general, gains or losses on the disposition of debt securities denominated in a foreign currency that are attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates between the date the debt security is acquired and the date of disposition, gains and losses attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates that occur between the time the Fund accrues interest or other receivables or accrues expenses or other liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and the time the Fund actually collects such receivables or pays such liabilities, and gains and losses from the disposition of foreign currencies and certain hedging instruments will be treated as ordinary income or loss.

The Fund’s transactions in foreign currencies, forward contracts, options and futures contracts (including options and futures contracts on foreign currencies) are subject to straddle and other special provisions of the Code that, among other things, may affect the character of gains and losses realized by the Fund (i.e., may affect whether gains or losses are ordinary or capital), accelerate recognition of income to the Fund and defer Fund losses.

Dividends and Distributions

Distributions to stockholders of investment company taxable income will, except in the case of distributions attributable to “qualified dividend income” described below, be taxable as ordinary income to the extent of the Fund’s earnings and profits, whether such distributions are paid in cash or reinvested in additional shares. Distributions of net long-term capital gains, if any, that the Fund reports as capital gains dividends are taxable as long-term capital gains, whether paid in cash or in shares, regardless of how long the stockholder has held the Fund’s shares. Dividends and distributions paid by the Fund will not qualify for the deduction for dividends received by corporations. Distributions of investment company taxable income reported by the Fund as derived from qualified dividend income will be taxable to individuals at the rates applicable to long-term capital gain, provided holding period and other requirements are met by both the individual and the Fund. Qualified dividend income generally includes dividends from domestic corporations and dividends from “qualified foreign corporations.”  The determination of whether a particular foreign corporation is a qualified foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes depends on various factors. Because of the fact-specific nature of the inquiry, the Fund cannot predict what portion of the dividends, if any, that it will receive from foreign corporations will be treated as qualified dividend income. However, at this time, the Fund does not expect material amounts of its dividends to be reported as qualified dividend income.  Distributions in excess of the Fund’s current and accumulated earnings and profits will first reduce a stockholder’s basis in his shares and, after the stockholder’s basis is reduced to zero, will constitute capital gains to a stockholder who holds his shares as capital assets.

With respect to income dividends or capital gains distributions payable either in shares of the Fund’s common stock or in cash, stockholders receiving dividends or distributions in the form of additional shares should be treated for United States federal income tax purposes as receiving a distribution in the amount equal to the amount of money that the stockholders receiving cash dividends will receive, and should have a cost basis in the shares received equal to such amount. With respect to income dividends or capital gains distributions payable only in cash, stockholders receiving a distribution in the form of shares of common stock purchased in the open market will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as receiving a distribution on the cash distribution that such stockholder would have received had it not elected to have such distribution reinvested and will have a cost basis in such shares equal to the amount of such distribution.

Beginning in 2013, a 3.8% Medicare contribution tax is imposed on net investment income, including, among other things, interest, dividends, and net gain from investments, of U.S. individuals with income exceeding $200,000 (or $250,000 if married filing jointly), and of estates and trusts.

If a stockholder is neither a lawful permanent resident nor a citizen of the United States or if he is a foreign entity, the Fund’s ordinary income dividends (which include distributions of net short-term capital gain) will generally be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax, unless a lower treaty rate applies.

A 30% withholding tax will be imposed on U.S.-source dividends, interest and other income items paid after June 

34

30, 2014, and proceeds from the sale of property producing U.S.-source dividends and interest paid after December 31, 2016, to (i) foreign financial institutions including non-U.S. investment funds unless they agree to collect and disclose to the IRS information regarding their direct and indirect U.S. account holders and (ii) certain other foreign entities, unless they certify certain information regarding their direct and indirect U.S. owners.  To avoid withholding, foreign financial institutions will need to (i) enter into agreements with the IRS that state that they will provide the IRS information, including the names, addresses and taxpayer identification numbers of direct and indirect U.S. account holders, comply with due diligence procedures with respect to the identification of U.S. accounts, report to the IRS certain information with respect to U.S. accounts maintained, agree to withhold tax on certain payments made to non-compliant foreign financial institutions or to account holders who fail to provide the required information, and determine certain other information as to their account holders, or (ii) in the event that an applicable intergovernmental agreement and implementing legislation are adopted, provide local revenue authorities with similar account holder information. Other foreign entities will need to either provide the name, address, and taxpayer identification number of each substantial U.S. owner or certifications of no substantial U.S. ownership unless certain exceptions apply or agree to provide certain information to other revenue authorities for transmittal to the IRS.

Dividends and interest received by the Fund may give rise to withholding and other taxes imposed by foreign countries.  Tax conventions between certain countries and the United States may reduce or eliminate such taxes.  A stockholder may be able to claim a credit or take a deduction for foreign taxes paid by the Fund if certain requirements are met.

By law, a stockholder’s dividends and redemption proceeds will be subject to a withholding tax if he has not provided a taxpayer identification number or social security number or the number that he has provided is incorrect.

Sales of Shares

Upon the sale or exchange of shares held as a capital asset, a stockholder will realize a taxable capital gain or loss depending upon the amount realized and his basis in his shares. Such gain or loss will be treated as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss depending upon the stockholder’s holding period for the shares. Any loss realized on a sale or through the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions in the Fund under the Plan, within a period (of 61 days) beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after the disposition of the shares, will be disallowed. In such a case, the basis of the shares acquired will be increased to reflect the disallowed loss. Any loss realized by a stockholder on the sale of a Fund share held by the stockholder for six months or less will be treated for tax purposes as long-term capital loss to the extent of any distributions of long-term capital gains received by the stockholder with respect to such share.

Notices

Stockholders will be notified annually by the Fund as to the United States federal income tax status of the dividends, distributions and deemed distributions made by the Fund to its stockholders. Furthermore, stockholders will also receive, if appropriate, various written notices after the close of the Fund’s taxable year regarding the U.S. federal income tax status of certain dividends, distributions and deemed distributions that were paid (or that are treated as having been paid) by the Fund to its stockholders during the preceding taxable year.

Chilean Taxes

The following discussion is based upon the advice of Guerrero, Olivos, Novoa y Errázuriz Ltda., Chilean counsel to the Fund.

All amounts earned by the Fund, including interest, dividends or net realized capital gains on amounts currently invested in Chile pursuant to its three investment contracts with the Republic of Chile, one entered into in 1989 upon the Fund’s inception, a second in 1993 in connection with the issuance of additional shares of common stock by the Fund in a rights offering (the “Investment Contracts”), and a third on January 13, 2012, in order to bring capital up to an amount of USD 75,000,000 in a period of three years, that exceed original capital are subject to a 10% income tax at the time they are remitted outside Chile. The 10% Chilean tax is not applicable to capital gains obtained by foreign institutional investors (including the Fund) on the sale of (i) shares of open corporations, provided certain requirements established in new article 107, added by Law 20,448 are met, (ii) publicly traded bonds, provided certain requirements established in new article 104 above mentioned are met, (iii) mutual fund quotas, provided certain requirements established in article 107 are met, and (iv) publicly traded debt securities issued by the Central Bank of Chile, the Republic of Chile or companies incorporated in Chile, all above provided the sale is made in a stock exchange, in a public offering or through quota-rescue process, as corresponds. For these purposes, the Fund must not participate, directly or indirectly, in the control of the issuers of the

35

securities in which it invests nor have, directly or indirectly, 10% or more of the capital or profits of such entities. To be eligible for this tax exemption, the Fund is required to register with the Chilean IRS and sign a written contract with a Chilean bank or authorized broker in which the Chilean bank or authorized broker agree, under its own liability, to check all withholding taxes have duly been paid. The 10% Chilean tax is applied only against remittances of dividends, interest and net realized gains, regardless of the purpose for which the remittances are used. Thus, the tax applies to remittances used to pay the Fund’s expenses outside of Chile, as well as amounts distributed to the Fund’s stockholders. Such tax is paid by the Fund on a current basis and is thus indirectly borne by all stockholders. Net realized capital gains for these purposes means realized gains net of realized losses (without regard to the length of time the securities were held), including any capital loss carry-over. These taxes are retained by the Chilean Administrator at the time a remittance is effected and are deposited in the Chilean Treasury. The original amounts of portfolio investments as well as interest and dividends and gains thereon, if any, that have not been remitted abroad may be reinvested by the Fund in Chile and will not be subject to tax until actually remitted. No other Chilean income taxes will be payable by the Fund or by a stockholder of the Fund that is not a Chilean resident. This special tax regime is included in the Investment Contracts executed by the Fund under Decree Law 600 and, under current Chilean law, will remain in effect for the duration of the Fund’s investment in Chile. Nevertheless, increases in taxes on corporations in which the Fund holds stock may affect the Fund’s return. As indicated below, the “First Category Tax” on corporate income is 18.5% for 2012 and 17% for 2013 and after. However, currently there is a discussion at Chilean Congress regarding the possibility of increasing First Category Tax up to a permanent 20% rate. Because of the special tax regime applicable to the Fund, the First Category Tax is not creditable against the 10% tax on remittances. In addition, the protection granted by the Investment Contracts applies to income taxes, which can reasonably be deemed to include capital gains taxes, but does not refer to other taxes, such as VAT and stamp taxes, that may be imposed on the Fund or its operations in Chile as a consequence of changes in general legislation. However, no taxation may affect in a discriminatory way the Fund or other foreign investors that have entered into an investment contract pursuant to the provisions of Decree Law 600. Under current law, the Fund is not subject to any Chilean inheritance, wealth or estate taxes.
