Waiver of Sovereign Immunity. (a) To the extent that the Republic has or hereafter may acquire or have attributed to it any immunity under any law (other than the laws of the Republic) from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through sovereign immunity, service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property, the Republic hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, except for actions arising out of or based on the U.S. federal securities laws or any state securities laws; provided, however, that the above exception shall not in any way limit the ability of the Underwriters to exercise the rights to indemnification and contribution from the Republic set forth in Section 10 14 hereof. To the extent that the Republic has or hereafter may have any immunity under the laws of the Republic (i) from jurisdiction of any court, (ii) from any legal process in the courts of the Republic, or (iii) from any legal process in any court other than a court of the Republic, whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution or otherwise, with respect to itself or its property, the Republic hereby irrevocably waives such immunity to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the Republic, in respect of its obligations under this Agreement, the Notes, the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus except for actions arising out of or based on the U.S. federal securities laws or any state securities laws; provided, however, that the above exception shall not in any way limit the ability of the Underwriters to exercise the rights to indemnification and contribution from the Republic set forth in Section 10 14 hereof. In addition, the Republic irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection to any suit, action or proceeding, that may be brought in connection with this Agreement, the Notes, the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus or the Final Prospectus, including such actions, suits or proceedings relating to securities laws of the United States or any state thereof, in such courts whether on the grounds of venue, residence or domicile or on the grounds that any such action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. However, the Republic will not waive immunity from attachment prior to judgment and attachment in aid of execution under Chilean law with respect to property of the Republic located in Chile and with respect to its movable and immovable property which is destined for diplomatic and consular missions and for the residence of the head of such missions or to military purposes, including such property which is property of a military character or under the control of a military authority or defense agency or property of the Chilean Central Bank abroad, since such waiver is not permitted under the laws of Chile. The Republic reserves the right to plead sovereign immunity under the U.S. Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 with respect to any action brought against it under U.S. federal securities laws or any state securities laws. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Republic agrees that the waivers set forth in this subsection (a) shall have the fullest extent permitted under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States and are intended to be irrevocable for purposes of such Act.
