Agreement to amend the Free Trade Agreement between the Government of Canada and the Government of the Republic of Chile

Done at Santiago on 5 December 1996, as amended, between the Government of Canada and the Government of the Republic of Chile

Appendix I: Chapter G - Investment

Section I – Investment

1. This Chapter applies to measures adopted or maintained by a Party relating to:


1. investors of the other Party;


2. investments of investors of the other Party in the territory of the Party; and


3. with respect to Articles G-06, G-14 and G-14 bis all investments in the territory of the Party.


2. This Chapter does not apply to measures adopted or maintained by a Party to the extent that they are covered by Chapter H bis of the Agreement.


3. For the purposes of this Chapter, the Parties reaffirm the right of each Party to regulate within its territory to achieve legitimate policy objectives, such as the protection of health, safety, the environment or public morals, social or consumer protection or the promotion and protection of cultural diversity.


4. For greater certainty, the mere fact that a Party takes or fails to take an action, including through a modification to its laws or regulations, in a manner which negatively affects an investment or interferes with an investor’s expectations, including its expectations of profits, even if there is loss or damage to the covered investment as a result, does not amount to a breach of an obligation under this Chapter.


5. For greater certainty, the mere fact that a subsidy or grant has not been issued, renewed or maintained, or has been modified or reduced, by a Party:


1. in the absence of any specific commitment under law or contract to issue, renew or maintain that subsidy or grant; or


2. in accordance with any terms or conditions attached to the issuance, renewal, modification, reduction or maintenance of that subsidy or grant,

does not constitute a breach of obligations in this Chapter, even if there is loss or damage to the covered investment as a result.

Article G-02: National Treatment ²

1. Each Party shall accord to investors of the other Party treatment no less favourable than that it accords, in like circumstances, to its own investors with respect to the establishment, acquisition, expansion, management, conduct, operation, and sale or other disposition of investments.


2. Each Party shall accord to investments of investors of the other Party treatment no less favourable than that it accords, in like circumstances, to investments of its own investors with respect to the establishment, acquisition, expansion, management, conduct, operation, and sale or other disposition of investments.


3. The treatment accorded by a Party under paragraphs 1 and 2 means, with respect to a province, treatment no less favourable than the most favourable treatment accorded, in like circumstances, by that province to investors, and to investments of investors, of the Party of which it forms a part.


4. For greater certainty, no Party may:


1. impose on an investor of the other Party a requirement that a minimum level of equity in an enterprise in the territory of the Party be held by its nationals, other than nominal qualifying shares for directors or incorporators of corporations; or


2. require an investor of the other Party, by reason of its nationality, to sell or otherwise dispose of an investment in the territory of the Party.

Article G-03: Most-Favoured-Nation Treatment

1. Each Party shall accord to investors of the other Party treatment no less favourable than that it accords, in like circumstances, to investors of any non-Party with respect to the establishment, acquisition, expansion, management, conduct, operation, and sale or other disposition of investments.


2. Each Party shall accord to investments of investors of the other Party treatment no less favourable than that it accords, in like circumstances, to investments of investors of any non-Party with respect to the establishment, acquisition, expansion, management, conduct, operation, and sale or other disposition of investments.


3. For greater certainty, the treatment referred to in this Article does not encompass international dispute resolution procedures or mechanisms, such as those included in Section II. Substantive obligations in other international investment treaties and other trade agreements do not in themselves constitute “treatment” and thus cannot give rise to a breach of this Article, absent measures adopted or maintained by a Party.

Article G-04: Standard of Treatment

1. Each Party shall accord to investors of the other Party and to investments of investors of the other Party the better of the treatment required by Articles G-02 and G-03.


2. Annex G-04.2 sets out certain specific obligations by the Party specified in that Annex.

Article G-05: Minimum Standard of Treatment Endnote ³

1. Each Party shall accord to investments of investors of the other Party treatment in accordance with international law, including fair and equitable treatment and full protection and security.


2. Paragraph 1 prescribes the customary international law minimum standard of treatment of aliens as the minimum standard of treatment to be accorded to investments of investors of the other Party.


3. The concepts of “fair and equitable treatment” and “full protection and security” do not require treatment in addition to or beyond that which is required by the customary international law minimum standard of treatment of aliens, and do not create any additional rights. The obligation in paragraph 1 to provide:


1. “fair and equitable treatment” includes the obligation not to deny justice in criminal, civil or administrative adjudicatory proceedings in accordance with the principle of due process; and


2. “full protection and security” means that each Party is required to provide the level of police protection required under customary international law.


4. A determination that there has been a breach of another provision of this Agreement, or of a separate international agreement, does not establish that there has been a breach of this Article.


5. For greater certainty, the fact that a measure breaches domestic law does not, in and of itself, establish a breach of this Article. In order to ascertain whether the measure breaches this Article, the Tribunal must consider whether a Party has acted inconsistently with the obligations in paragraph 1.


6. Without prejudice to paragraph 1 and notwithstanding Article G-08(6)(b), each Party shall accord to investors of the other Party, and to investments of investors of the other Party, non-discriminatory treatment with respect to measures it adopts or maintains relating to losses suffered by investments in its territory owing to armed conflict or civil strife.


7. Paragraph 6 does not apply to existing measures relating to subsidies or grants that would be inconsistent with Article G-02 but for Article G-08(6)(b).

Article G-06: Performance Requirements ⁴

1. Neither Party may impose or enforce any of the following requirements, or enforce any commitment or undertaking, in connection with the establishment, acquisition, expansion, management, conduct or operation of an investment of an investor of a Party or of a non-Party in its territory:


1. to export a given level or percentage of goods or services;


2. to achieve a given level or percentage of domestic content;


3. to purchase, use or accord a preference to goods produced or services provided in its territory, or to purchase goods or services from persons in its territory;


4. to relate in any way the volume or value of imports to the volume or value of exports or to the amount of foreign exchange inflows associated with such investment;


5. to restrict sales of goods or services in its territory that such investment produces or provides by relating such sales in any way to the volume or value of its exports or foreign exchange earnings;


6. to transfer technology, a production process or other proprietary knowledge to a person in its territory, except when the requirement is imposed or the commitment or undertaking is enforced by a court, administrative tribunal or competition authority to remedy an alleged violation of competition laws or to act in a manner not inconsistent with other provisions of this Agreement; or


7. to act as the exclusive supplier of the goods it produces or services it provides to a specific region or world market.


2. A measure that requires an investment to use a technology to meet generally applicable health, safety or environmental requirements shall not be construed to be inconsistent with paragraph 1(f). For greater certainty, Articles G-02 and G-03 apply to the measure.


3. Neither Party may condition the receipt or continued receipt of an advantage, in connection with an investment in its territory of an investor of a Party or of a non-Party, on compliance with any of the following requirements:


1. to achieve a given level or percentage of domestic content;


2. to purchase, use or accord a preference to goods produced in its territory, or to purchase goods from producers in its territory;


3. to relate in any way the volume or value of imports to the volume or value of exports or to the amount of foreign exchange inflows associated with such investment; or


4. to restrict sales of goods or services in its territory that such investment produces or provides by relating such sales in any way to the volume or value of its exports or foreign exchange earnings.


4. Nothing in paragraph 3 shall be construed to prevent a Party from conditioning the receipt or continued receipt of an advantage, in connection with an investment in its territory of an investor of a Party or of a non-Party, on compliance with a requirement to locate production, provide a service, train or employ workers, construct or expand particular facilities, or carry out research and development, in its territory.


5. Paragraphs 1 and 3 do not apply to any requirement other than the requirements set out in those paragraphs.


6. Provided that such measures are not applied in an arbitrary or unjustifiable manner, or do not constitute a disguised restriction on international trade or investment, nothing in paragraphs 1(b), 1(c), 3(a) or 3(b) shall be construed to prevent a Party from adopting or maintaining measures, including environmental measures:


1. necessary to secure compliance with laws and regulations that are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement;


2. necessary to protect human, animal or plant life or health; or


3. necessary for the conservation of living or non-living exhaustible natural resources.

Article G-07: Senior Management and Boards of Directors

1. Neither Party may require that an enterprise of that Party that is an investment of an investor of the other Party appoint to senior management positions individuals of any particular nationality.


2. A Party may require that a majority of the board of directors, or any committee thereof, of an enterprise of that Party that is an investment of an investor of the other Party, be of a particular nationality, or resident in the territory of the Party, provided that the requirement does not materially impair the ability of the investor to exercise control over its investment.

Article G-08: Reservations and Exceptions

1. Articles G-02, G-03, G-06 and G-07 do not apply to:


1. any existing non-conforming measure that is maintained by:


1. a Party at the national or provincial level, as set out in its Schedule to Annex I, or


2. a local government;


2. the continuation or prompt renewal of any non-conforming measure referred to in subparagraph (a); or


3. an amendment to any non-conforming measure referred to in subparagraph (a) to the extent that the amendment does not decrease the conformity of the measure, as it existed immediately before the amendment, with Articles G-02, G-03, G-06 and G-07.


2. Articles G-02, G-03, G-06 and G-07 do not apply to any measure that a Party adopts or maintains with respect to sectors, subsectors or activities, as set out in its Schedule to Annex II.

4. Articles G-02 and G-03 do not apply to any measure that is an exception to, or derogation from, a Party’s obligations under the TRIPS Agreement, as specifically provided for in that Agreement.


5. Article G-03 does not apply to treatment accorded by a Party pursuant to agreements, or with respect to sectors, set out in its Schedule to Annex III.

2. subsidies or grants provided by a Party or a state enterprise, including government-supported loans, guarantees and insurance.


7. The provisions of:


1. Article G-06(1)(a), (b) and (c), and (3)(a) and (b) do not apply to qualification requirements for goods or services with respect to export promotion and foreign aid programs;

1. profits, dividends, interest, capital gains, royalty payments, management fees, technical assistance and other fees, returns in kind and other amounts derived from the investment;

4. Notwithstanding paragraphs 1 and 2, a Party may prevent a transfer through the equitable, non-discriminatory and good faith application of its laws relating to:


1. bankruptcy, insolvency or the protection of the rights of creditors;


2. issuing, trading or dealing in securities;


3. criminal or penal offenses;


4. reports of transfers of currency or other monetary instruments; or


5. ensuring the satisfaction of judgments in adjudicatory proceedings.


5. Paragraph 3 shall not be construed to prevent a Party from imposing any measure through the equitable, non-discriminatory and good faith application of its laws relating to the matters set out in subparagraphs (a) through (e) of paragraph 4.


6. Notwithstanding paragraph 1, a Party may restrict transfers of returns in kind in circumstances where it could otherwise restrict such transfers under this Agreement, including as set out in paragraph 4.

Article G-10: Expropriation and Compensation ⁵

1. Neither Party may directly or indirectly nationalize or expropriate an investment of an investor of the other Party in its territory or take a measure tantamount to nationalization or expropriation of such an investment (“expropriation”), except:


1. for a public purpose;


2. on a non-discriminatory basis;


3. in accordance with due process of law and Article G-05(1); and


4. on payment of compensation in accordance with paragraphs 2 through 6.


2. Compensation shall be equivalent to the fair market value of the expropriated investment immediately before the expropriation took place (“date of expropriation”), and shall not reflect any change in value occurring because the intended expropriation had become known earlier. Valuation criteria shall include going concern value, asset value including declared tax value of tangible property, and other criteria, as appropriate, to determine fair market value.


3. Compensation shall be paid without delay and be fully realizable.


4. If payment is made in a G7 currency, compensation shall include interest at a commercially reasonable rate for that currency from the date of expropriation until the date of actual payment.


5. If a Party elects to pay in a currency other than a G7 currency, the amount paid on the date of payment, if converted into a G7 currency at the market rate of exchange prevailing on that date, shall be no less than if the amount of compensation owed on the date of expropriation had been converted into that G7 currency at the market rate of exchange prevailing on that date, and interest had accrued at a commercially reasonable rate for that G7 currency from the date of expropriation until the date of payment.


6. On payment, compensation shall be freely transferable as provided in Article G-09.


7. This Article does not apply to the issuance of compulsory licences granted in relation to intellectual property rights, or to the revocation, limitation or creation of intellectual property rights, to the extent that such issuance, revocation, limitation or creation is consistent with the TRIPS Agreement.


8. For purposes of this Article and for greater certainty, a non-discriminatory measure of general application shall not be considered a measure tantamount to an expropriation of a debt security or loan covered by this Chapter solely on the ground that the measure imposes costs on the debtor that cause it to default on the debt.

Article G-11: Special Formalities and Information Requirements

1. Nothing in Article G-02 shall be construed to prevent a Party from adopting or maintaining a measure that prescribes special formalities in connection with the establishment of investments by investors of the other Party, such as a requirement that investors be residents of the Party or that investments be legally constituted under the laws or regulations of the Party, provided that such formalities do not materially impair the protections afforded by a Party to investors of the other Party and investments of investors of the other Party pursuant to this Chapter.


2. Notwithstanding Articles G-02 or G-03, a Party may require an investor of the other Party, or its investment in its territory, to provide routine information concerning that investment solely for informational or statistical purposes. The Party shall protect such business information that is confidential from any disclosure that would prejudice the competitive position of the investor or the investment. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent a Party from otherwise obtaining or disclosing information in connection with the equitable and good faith application of its law.

Article G-12: Relation to Other Chapters

1. In the event of any inconsistency between this Chapter and another Chapter, the other Chapter shall prevail to the extent of the inconsistency.


2. A requirement by a Party that a service provider of the other Party post a bond or other form of financial security as a condition of providing a service into its territory does not of itself make this Chapter applicable to the provision of that cross-border service. This Chapter applies to that Party’s treatment of the posted bond or financial security.

Article G-13: Denial of Benefits

1. A Party may deny the benefits of this Chapter to an investor of the other Party that is an enterprise of that other Party and to investments of that investor if investors of a non-Party own or control the enterprise and the denying Party:


1. does not maintain diplomatic relations with the non-Party; or


2. adopts or maintains measures with respect to the non-Party that prohibit transactions with the enterprise or that would be violated or circumvented if the benefits of this Chapter were accorded to the enterprise or to its investments.


2. Subject to prior notification and consultation in accordance with Articles L-03 (Notification and Provision of Information) and N-06 (Consultations), a Party may deny the benefits of this Chapter to an investor of the other Party that is an enterprise of that other Party and to investments of those investors if investors of a non-Party own or control the enterprise and the enterprise has no substantial business activities in the territory of the Party under whose law it is constituted or organized.

Article G-14: Environmental Measures

1. Nothing in this Chapter shall be construed to prevent a Party from adopting, maintaining or enforcing any measure otherwise consistent with this Chapter that it considers appropriate to ensure that investment activity in its territory is undertaken in a manner sensitive to environmental concerns.


2. The Parties recognize that it is inappropriate to encourage investment by relaxing domestic health, safety or environmental measures. Accordingly, a Party should not waive or otherwise derogate from, or offer to waive or otherwise derogate from, such measures as an encouragement for the establishment, acquisition, expansion or retention in its territory of an investment of an investor. If a Party considers that the other Party has offered such an encouragement, it may request consultations with the other Party and the two Parties shall consult with a view to avoiding any such encouragement.

1. A Tribunal established under this Article shall be established under the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules and shall conduct its proceedings in accordance with those Rules, except as modified by this Section.


2. If a Tribunal established under this Article is satisfied that claims have been submitted to arbitration under Article G-21 that have a question of law or fact in common, the Tribunal may, in the interests of fair and efficient resolution of the claims, and after hearing the disputing parties, by order:


1. assume jurisdiction over, and hear and determine together, all or part of the claims; or

10. A disputing Party shall deliver to the Secretariat, within 15 days of receipt by the disputing Party, a copy of:

2. The disputing Party shall deliver to the non-disputing Party a copy of the request for consultations and other documents submitted along with that request within 30 days of the date those documents have been delivered to the disputing Party. The non-disputing Party is entitled, upon its request and at its cost, to receive from the disputing Party a copy of the evidence that has been tendered to the Tribunal, copies of pleadings filed in the arbitration, and the written arguments of the disputing parties. The non-disputing Party receiving such information shall treat the information as if it were the disputing Party.


3. The non-disputing Party may make oral and written submissions to a Tribunal only on questions of interpretation of this Agreement and has the right to attend hearings held under this Section.

Article G-29: Transparency of Proceedings

1. The UNCITRAL Transparency Rules, including in regard to public hearings and the participation of third parties, as modified by this Chapter, shall apply in connection with proceedings under this Section.

Such documentation may be made publicly available by communication to the repository referred to in paragraph 8 of this Article.


5. A disputing party may disclose to other persons in connection with the arbitral proceedings, including witnesses and experts, such unredacted documents as it considers necessary in the course of proceedings under this Section. However, the disputing party shall ensure that those persons protect the confidential information in those documents as directed by the Tribunal.


6. A Party may share with government officials and sub-national government officials, if applicable, such unredacted documents as it considers necessary in the course of proceedings under this Section. However, such Party shall ensure that those persons protect the confidential information in those documents as directed by the Tribunal.


7. Nothing in this Chapter requires a disputing Party to withhold from the public information required to be disclosed by its laws. To the extent that a Tribunal’s confidentiality order designates information as confidential and a Party’s law on access to information requires public access to that information, the Party’s law on access to information shall prevail. The disputing Party should apply those laws in a manner sensitive to protecting from disclosure information that has been designated as confidential or protected information.


8. The repository of information published under this Article shall be the administering authority to which a claim is submitted under this Section.

Article G-30: Preliminary Objections

1. Without prejudice to a Tribunal’s authority to address other questions as a preliminary objection, a Tribunal shall address and decide as a preliminary question any objection by the disputing Party that, as a matter of law, a claim submitted is not a claim for which an award in favour of the disputing investor may be made under this Chapter, including that a dispute is not within the competence of the Tribunal, or that a claim is manifestly without legal merit.


2. An objection under paragraph 1 shall be submitted to the Tribunal within 60 days after the Tribunal is constituted. The Tribunal shall suspend any proceedings on the merits and issue a decision or award on the objection, stating the grounds therefor, no later than 180 days after the date of the request. However, if a disputing party requests a hearing, the Tribunal may take an additional 30 days to issue the decision or award. Regardless of whether a hearing is requested, a Tribunal may, on a showing of extraordinary cause, delay issuing its decision or award by an additional brief period, which may not exceed 30 days.


3. In deciding an objection under paragraph 1, the Tribunal shall assume to be true the disputing investor’s factual allegations in support of any claim in the notice of arbitration or any amendment thereof, provided the amendment is submitted no later than 30 days from the objection under paragraph 1. The Tribunal may also consider any relevant facts not in dispute.


4. This Article shall be without prejudice to the Tribunal’s authority to address questions pertaining to its competence in the course of proceedings, or to the right of the disputing Party to make any objection as to the Tribunal’s competence, including an objection to jurisdiction, or any argument on the merits merely because the disputing Party did or did not raise an objection under paragraph 1.


5. The provisions on costs in Article G-36, including costs of the proceedings and costs of legal representation and assistance, shall apply to decisions or awards issued under this Article.

Article G-33: Interpretation of Annexes

1. If a disputing Party asserts as a defense that the measure alleged to be a breach is within the scope of a reservation or exception set out in Annex I, Annex II or Annex III, on request of the disputing Party, the Tribunal shall request the interpretation of the Commission on the issue. The Commission, within 60 days of delivery of the request, shall submit in writing its interpretation to the Tribunal.


2. Further to Article G-32(2), a Commission interpretation submitted under paragraph 1 shall be binding on the Tribunal. If the Commission fails to submit an interpretation within 60 days, the Tribunal shall decide the issue.

Article G-34: Expert Reports

Article G-35: Interim Measures of Protection

Article G-36: Final Award

1. If a Tribunal makes a final award against a Party, the Tribunal may award, separately or in combination, only:


1. monetary damages and any applicable interest; and


2. restitution of property, in which case the award shall provide that the disputing Party may pay monetary damages and any applicable interest in lieu of restitution.


2. The Tribunal shall order that the costs of the proceedings be borne by the unsuccessful disputing party. In exceptional circumstances, the Tribunal may apportion costs between the disputing parties if it determines that apportionment is appropriate in the circumstances of the claim. Other reasonable costs, including costs of legal representation and assistance, shall be borne by the unsuccessful disputing party, unless the Tribunal determines that such apportionment is unreasonable in the circumstances of the claim. If only parts of the claim have been successful the costs shall be adjusted, proportionately, to the number or extent of the successful parts of the claim.


3. Subject to paragraph 1, when a claim is made under Article G-18(1):


1. an award of restitution of property shall provide that restitution be made to the enterprise;


2. an award of monetary damages and any applicable interest shall provide that the sum be paid to the enterprise; and


3. the award shall provide that it is made without prejudice to any right that any person may have in the relief under applicable domestic law.


4. A Tribunal may not order a Party to pay punitive damages.

1. An award made by a Tribunal shall have no binding force except between the disputing parties and in respect of the particular case.


2. Subject to paragraph 3 and the applicable review procedure for an interim award, a disputing party shall abide by and comply with an award without delay.


3. A disputing party may not seek enforcement of a final award until:


1. in the case of a final award made under the ICSID Convention:


1. 120 days have elapsed from the date the award was rendered and no disputing party has requested revision or annulment of the award, or


2. revision or annulment proceedings have been completed; and


2. in the case of a final award under the ICSID Additional Facility Rules or the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules:


1. three months have elapsed from the date the award was rendered and no disputing party has commenced a proceeding to revise, set aside or annul the award, or


2. a court has dismissed or allowed an application to revise, set aside or annul the award and there is no further appeal.


4. Each Party shall provide for the enforcement of an award in its territory.


5. If a disputing Party fails to abide by or comply with a final award, the Commission, on delivery of a request by a Party whose investor was a party to the arbitration, shall establish a panel under Article N-08 (Request for an Arbitral Panel). The requesting Party may seek in such proceedings:


1. a determination that the failure to abide by or comply with the final award is inconsistent with the obligations of this Agreement; and


2. a recommendation that the Party abide by or comply with the final award.


6. A disputing investor may seek enforcement of an arbitration award under the ICSID Convention, the New York Convention or the Inter-American Convention regardless of whether proceedings have been taken under paragraph 5.


7. A claim that is submitted to arbitration under this Section shall be considered to arise out of a commercial relationship or transaction for purposes of Article I of the New York Convention and Article I of the Inter-American Convention.


8. If a separate agreement enters into force as between the Parties that establishes a multilateral investment tribunal or appellate mechanism, the Parties shall adopt a decision providing that investment disputes arising under this Chapter shall be decided, or in the case of an appellate mechanism shall be eligible for review, pursuant to this separate agreement and make appropriate transitional arrangements.

1. measures imposing a reserve requirement referred to in subparagraph (b) for a period which shall not exceed two years from the date of transfer to Chile,


2. any reasonable measure consistent with paragraph 3 necessary to implement or to avoid circumvention of the measures under subparagraphs (a) or (b), and


3. measures, consistent with Article G-09 and this Annex, establishing future special voluntary investment programs in addition to the general regime for foreign investment in Chile, except that any such measures may restrict transfers from Chile of proceeds from the sale of all or any part of an investment of an investor of Canada or from the partial or complete liquidation of the investment for a period not to exceed 5 years from the date of transfer to Chile; and


4. to apply, pursuant to the Law 18.840, measures with respect to transfers relating to an investment of an investor of Canada that:


1. require that foreign exchange transactions for such transfers take place in the Formal Exchange Market,


2. require authorization for access to the Formal Exchange Market to purchase foreign currency, at the rate agreed upon by the parties to the transaction, which access shall be granted without delay when such transfers are:


1. payments for current international transactions,


2. proceeds from the sale of all or any part, and from the partial or complete liquidation of an investment of an investor of Canada, or


3. payments pursuant to a loan provided they are made in accordance with the maturity dates originally agreed upon in the loan agreement, and


3. require that foreign currency be converted into Chilean pesos, at the rate agreed upon by the parties to the transaction, except for transfers referred to in sub-subparagraphs (ii) (A) through (C) which are exempt from this requirement.


2. Where Chile proposes to adopt a measure referred to in paragraph 1(c), Chile shall, to the extent practicable:


1. provide in advance to Canada the reasons for the proposed adoption of the measure as well as any relevant information in relation to the measure; and


2. provide Canada with a reasonable opportunity to comment on the proposed measure.


3. A measure that is consistent with this Annex but inconsistent with Article G-02, shall be deemed not to contravene Article G-02 provided that, as required under existing Chilean law, it does not discriminate among investors that enter into transactions of the same nature.


4.

5. For the purposes of this Annex:

Chilean juridical person means an enterprise that is constituted or organized in Chile for profit in a form which under Chilean law is recognized as being a juridical person;

existing means in effect on 22 October 1996;

foreign credit means any type of debt financing originating in foreign markets whatever its nature, form or maturity period;

foreign direct investment means an investment of an investor of Canada, other than a foreign credit, made in order:


1. to establish a Chilean juridical person or to increase the capital of an existing Chilean juridical person with the purpose of producing an additional flow of goods or services, excluding purely financial flows; or


2. to acquire equity of an existing Chilean juridical person and to participate in its management, but excludes such an investment that is of a purely financial character and that is designed only to gain indirect access to the financial market of Chile;

Annex G-10 – Expropriation

1. The concept of a “measure tantamount to nationalization or expropriation” in paragraph 1 of Article G-10 can also be termed “indirect expropriation”. Indirect expropriation results from a measure or series of measures of a Party that has an effect equivalent to direct expropriation without formal transfer of title or outright seizure.


2. The determination of whether a measure or series of measures of a Party constitutes an indirect expropriation requires a case-by-case, fact-based inquiry that considers, among other factors:


1. the economic impact of the measure or series of measures, although the sole fact that a measure or series of measures of a Party has an adverse effect on the economic value of an investment does not establish that an indirect expropriation has occurred;


2. the extent to which the measure or series of measures interferes with distinct, reasonable investment-backed expectations; and


3. the character of the measure or series of measures.


3. Except in rare circumstances, such as when a measure or series of measures is so severe in the light of its purpose that it cannot be reasonably viewed as having been adopted and applied in good faith, non-discriminatory measures of a Party that are designed and applied to protect legitimate public welfare objectives, such as health, safety and the environment, do not constitute indirect expropriations.

Annex G-21.1 – Submission of a Claim to Arbitration

Chile

1. With respect to the submission of a claim to arbitration:


1. an investor of Canada may not allege that Chile has breached an obligation under:


1. Section I or Article J-03(2) (State Enterprises), or

both in an arbitration under Section II and in proceedings before a Chilean court or administrative tribunal; and


2. where an enterprise of Chile that is a juridical person that an investor of Canada owns or controls directly or indirectly alleges in proceedings before a Chilean court or administrative tribunal that Chile has breached an obligation under:


1. Section I or Article J-03(2) (State Enterprises), or


2. Article J-02(3)(a) (Monopolies and State Enterprises) where the monopoly has acted in a manner inconsistent with Chile’s obligations under Section I,

the investor may not allege the breach in an arbitration under Section II.


2. For greater certainty, if an investor of Canada or an enterprise of Chile that is a juridical person that an investor of Canada owns or controls directly or indirectly makes an allegation referred to in paragraph 1(a) or (b) before a Chilean court or administrative tribunal, the selection of the Chilean court or administrative tribunal shall be final and such investor or enterprise may not thereafter allege the breach in an arbitration under Section II.
