The Company is seeking the approval of the Reorganization as a related party transaction in accordance with Title XVI of the Chilean Corporations Act.
On November 14, 2017, the Board of Directors of Enel Chile unanimously approved the following terms of the Reorganization:·
Merger: Merger exchange ratio of 15.80 Enel Chile shares for each EGPL share.
Tender Offer and the Capital Increase:
The following is a summary description of the Reorganization.
The Merger
The Merger involves the merger of EGPL with and into Enel Chile. The consummation of the Merger is contingent on the approval of the Merger by the shareholders of Enel Chile and EGPL and the satisfaction of conditions of the Merger described in“—Conditions of the Reorganization—Conditions ofthe Merger”below. Upon effectiveness of the Merger, EGPL will merge with and into Enel Chile. Enel Chile will be the surviving corporation under the name “Enel Chile S.A.,” and EGPL will cease to exist as a separate entity. See “—Conditions of the Reorganization—Conditions of the Merger” and “Item 2–TheMerger.”
The Capital Increase
As part of the Reorganization, Enel Chile is seeking to conduct the Capital Increase, in part, to obtain Enel Chile shares to be issued in connection with the Tender Offer to satisfy the Enel Chile U.S. Share/ADS Subscription Condition and the Enel Chile Share Subscription Condition. The Capital Increase is subject to approval by the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the outstanding voting shares of Enel Chile at the Meeting.
Under Chilean law, existing shareholders of a company have preemptive rights to subscribe for additional shares issued by means of a capital increase pro rata in proportion to their interest in thecompany (“preemptive rights”). Also under Chilean law, a preemptive rights offering is conducted fora 30-calendar day period following the publication by the company of a notice in a newspaper with national coverage of the commencement of the preemptive rights offering period with respect to the newly issued shares. In the Reorganization, the existing holders of Enel Chile shares (including Enel) will have
16
preemptive rights to subscribe for additional Enel Chile shares pro rata in connection with the newly issued shares of Enel Chile, other than the Enel Chile shares to be issued in connection with the Merger. In addition, Enel Chile shares underlying Enel Chile ADSs will have preemptive rights to subscribe for additional Enel Chile shares pro rata. Any existing holders of Enel Chile shares that have preemptive rights in connection with the Capital Increase will be able to exercise such preemptive rights only by paying cash for the newly issued Enel Chile shares.See “Item 3– The Capital Increase”and“—Conditions of the Reorganization—Conditions of the Capital Increase.”

Following completion of the U.S. Offer, for each Enel Generación ADS validly tendered in the U.S. Offer, an Enel Generación ADS holder will receive Ch$10,620 in cash, without interest, payable in U.S. dollars net of applicable withholding taxes and distribution fees, and 1.72683 Enel Chile ADSs as a result of its satisfaction of the Enel Chile U.S. Share/ADS Subscription Condition

The Chilean Offer is subject to certain conditions, including the condition that any eligible holder of Enel Generación shares tendering in the Chilean Offer shall have agreed to apply Ch$236 of the consideration payable for each Enel Generación share tendered to subscribe for Enel Chile shares at a subscription price of Ch$82 per Enel Chile share(the “Enel Chile Share Subscription Condition”). As a result, following completion of the Chilean Offer, for each Enel Generaciónshare purchased, an Enel Generación shareholder will receive Ch$354 in cash and 2.87805 Enel Chile shares as a result of its satisfaction of the Enel Chile Share Subscription Condition.See “—Conditions of the Reorganization—Conditions of the Tender Offer.”

Risk Factors
In deciding whether to vote to approve the Reorganization as a related party transaction in accordance with Title XVI of the Chilean Corporations Act, you should read this Information Statement carefully and the referred documents. You should also carefully consider the following risk factors related to the Reorganization together with the risk factors set forth in the Enel Chile 2016 Form 20-F and the Enel Generación 2016 Form 20-F.
Enel Chile may fail to realize the business growth opportunities, revenue benefits, cost savings and other benefits anticipated from, or may incur unanticipated costs associated with, the Reorganization andEnel Chile’sresults of operations, financial condition and the price of Enel Chile shares may suffer.
The Reorganization, includingEnel Chile’sacquisition of EGPL in the Merger and the Tender Offer for Enel Generación shares, may not achieve the business growth opportunities, revenue benefits, cost savings and other benefits anticipated by Enel Chile. However, these benefits may not develop and other assumptions upon which the offer consideration was determined may prove to be incorrect.
Under any of these circumstances, the business growth opportunities, revenue benefits, cost savings and other benefits anticipated by us to result from the completion of the Reorganization may not be achieved as expected, or at all, or may be delayed. To the extent that Enel Chile incurs higher integration costs or achieve lower revenue benefits or fewer cost savings than expected,Enel Chile’sresults of operations and financial condition may suffer.
The potential integration of Enel Chile and EGPL may be difficult and expensive.
The Merger involves the integration of a mature business, as is the case ofEnel Chile’sconventional energy business, which Enel Chile develops through Enel Generación, withEGPL’snon-conventional renewable energy business.Enel Chile’sgoal in integrating the operations is to increase the revenues and earnings of the combined businesses through cost savings, and, as a combined company,to increase Enel Chile’s ability to satisfy the demands of its customers. In so doing,Enel Chile may encounter substantial difficulties in integrating operations, and could even incur substantial costs as a result of, among other things:
20
The diversion of management attention and any difficulties encountered from the Merger could increase costs or reduce revenues, earnings and operating results of Enel Chile following completion of the Merger. Any delays encountered in the integration process of EGPL and Enel Chile, could have an adverse effect on the revenues, level of expenses, operating results and financial condition of the Enel Chile, which may adversely affect the value of the Enel Chile securities after the completion of the Tender Offer.
Enel Chile following the Merger may not be able to retain key employees or efficiently manage the larger and broader organization, which could negatively affectEnel Chile’soperations and financial condition.
The success of Enel Chile following the Merger, will depend in part on the ability of Enel Chile to retain key employees of both Enel Chile and EGPL and successfully manage the larger and broader organization resulting from the Merger. In this context, key employees may depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty and difficulty of integration or a general desire not to remain with Enel Chile. Furthermore, Enel Chile will face challenges inherent in efficiently managing an increased number of employees. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that Enel Chile will be able to retain key employees or successfully manage the larger and more diverse combined organization, which could result in disruptionto the combined company’s business and negatively impact the combined company’s operations andfinancial condition.
The Merger will be a statutory merger and there is no merger agreement entered into between Enel Chile and EGPL or Enel, as the sole shareholder of EGPL; therefore, none of the parties involved in the Merger will have any contractual protections against each other.
The Merger will be a statutory merger under Article 99 of the Chilean Corporations Act. Under Chilean law, no merger agreement is required, provided that the shareholders of the merging corporations are presented with a document containing the terms and conditions of the merger. No merger agreement has been or will be entered into between Enel Chile and EGPL or Enel in connection with the Merger. However, the terms and conditions of the Merger are included in as part of the General Terms of the Reorganization presented to shareholders of Enel Chile and EGPL in connection with the ESMs. The General Terms of the Reorganization do not include representations and warranties or covenants regarding the merging entities. In the absence of a merger agreement providing contractual rights between the parties to the Merger, any rights of the parties to the Merger to seek indemnification or other recovery for any losses with respect to the Merger will be based solely on the protections of the Chilean Corporations Act.
21
ITEM 2–THE MERGER
The Company is seeking the approval of the Merger in accordance with rules under Title IX of the Chilean Corporations Act and Title IX of the Chilean Corporation Regulations (Reglamento de Sociedades Anónimas). The approval of the Merger will also constitute the approval of (i) the terms and conditions of the Merger, including the merger exchange ratio; (ii) the statements of financial position of Enel Chile and EGPL as of September 30, 2017, duly audited under the Chilean auditing standards by the corresponding external audit firms, provided in connection with the Merger(the “Chilean Financial Statements”); and (iii) a capital increase by Enel Chile for purposes of acquiring shares to be issued to the shareholder of EGPL in the Merger pursuant to the merger exchange ratio. The following is a summary description of the Merger.
Terms of the Merger; No Merger Agreement
On November 14, 2017, the Board of Directors of Enel Chile proposed a merger exchange ratio of 15.80 Enel Chile shares for each EGPL share. This merger exchange ratio was determined by the Board of Directors of Enel Chile based on its review of the opinions and reports of the various independent evaluators and independent appraisers involved in theReorganization. See “AdditionalInformation.”
No merger agreement has been entered into between Enel Chile and EGPL in connection with the proposed Merger. Under the Chilean Corporations Act, it is not necessary for parties to a merger to enter into a merger agreement in connection with an Article 99 statutory merger. This is because the manner in which the merged companies will be combined is prescribed by the Chilean Corporations Act. However, pursuant to Article 155(a) of the Chilean Corporate Regulations, the Boards of Directors of Enel Chile and EGPL may adopt certain terms and conditions relating to the Merger that outline certain information relating to the Merger. For purposes of the Reorganization, the Boards of Enel Chile and EGPL have approved a document entitled General Terms of the Reorganization (Bases Generales de la Reorganización) which outlines the main terms and conditions related to the Reorganization (including the Merger). The original Spanish version and an English translation of the General Terms of the Reorganization is available on the website of Enel Chile at www.enelchile.cl and is incorporated by reference into this Information Statement.
In addition, under the Chilean Corporations Act, the Boards of Directors of the companies that are parties to a merger are not required to approve the merger. Instead, the Chilean Corporations Act requires that the Board of each company that is a party to the merger must:
If two-thirds of the outstanding voting shares of each of Enel Chile and EGPL approve the Merger and all other conditions of the Merger are satisfied or waived, then the Chilean Corporations Act provides that at the effective time of the Merger:
22
Conditions of the Merger
See “—Conditions of the Reorganization—Conditions of the Merger.”
Regulatory Approvals
If the Merger is approved by two-thirds of the respective outstanding voting shares of Enel Chile and EGPL, Enel Chile and EGPL must record the minutes of their respective ESMs at which their respective shareholders approved the Merger before a Chilean notary public and publish within the 60 following days an abstract of those minutes in the Registry of Commerce (Registro de Comercio) and in the Official Gazette (Diario Oficial) in order for the Merger to be completed and the exchange of Enel Chile shares for EGPL shares to occur.
In addition, although not a precondition to the effectiveness of the Merger, before the Enel Chile shares can be issued in exchange for the shares of EGPL and such Enel Chile shares may be traded on the Chilean Stock Exchanges, Enel Chile must obtain:
There are no other regulatory approvals Enel Chile is seeking to obtain in connection with the Merger of Enel Chile and EGPL. However, in connection with the approval by the SVS of the registration of the issuance of the additional Enel Chile shares, the SVS will review the issuance to determine whether it complies with Chilean law.
In addition, in connection with the Merger and the Enel Chile ADS program, certain information must be delivered to the SVS. Enel Chile must deliver to the SVS a copy of its registration statement and any other information it submits to the SEC in the same form and at the same time its files the registration statement or such other information with the SEC. Enel Chile must report on a monthly basis the issuance and cancellation of Enel Chile ADSs, the number of Enel Chile ADSs traded, and the price and trading volumes. Enel Chile will also be required to file with the SVS on a quarterly basis a list of Enel Chile ADS holders.
Statutory Merger Dissenters’ Withdrawal Rights
Under the Chilean Corporations Act, Enel Chile shareholders and EGPL shareholders who vote against approval of the Merger, or if they did not attend the meeting, who notify the applicable company in writing within 30 days following the respective shareholders’ meetings of their opposition to the Merger,and who provide Enel Chile or EGPL, as the case may be, with the required notice of withdrawal, willhave the right to exercise statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights (derecho a retiro) and to receive
23
from Enel Chile or EGPL, as the case may be, a cash payment in exchange for Enel Chile shares or EGPLshares, as applicable. A holder of Enel Chile shares exercising statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawalrights will receive a cash payment from Enel Chile that is equivalent to the weighted average of the closing prices for Enel Chile shares as reported on the Chilean Stock Exchanges during the 60-trading day period preceding the 30th trading day prior to the date on which the Merger is approved. The statutory mergerdissenters’ withdrawal rights price is Ch$74.36 per Enel Chile share. A holder of EGPL shares exercisingstatutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights will receive a cash payment from EGPL that is equivalentto the book value of EGPL shares, which is determined by dividing EGPL’s net worth (patrimonio) by the total number of issued and paid shares of EGPL.
Enel Chile ADS holders own beneficial interests in Enel Chile shares that are held by the custodianbank for Enel Chile’s ADS program. Enel Chile ADS holders do not hold Enel Chile shares directly andare not listed as shareholders on Enel Chile’s share registry. Therefore, any Enel Chile ADS holder that wishes to exercise statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights with respect to the Merger must cancelsuch holder’s Enel Chile ADSs and become a registered shareholder of Enel Chile not later than midnight(the end of the day) on December 14, 2017 (the fifth Chilean business day prior to the Meeting) (the“Shareholder Record Date”) and then follow the procedures for exercising statutory merger dissenters’withdrawal rights as a shareholder.
Please note that under Chilean law, shareholders must receive notice of the shareholders’ meetingnot less than 15 and no more than 20 days before the date of a shareholders’ meeting unless allshareholders are present in a meeting, in which case no notice is required. Only Enel Chile holders of record as of the Shareholder Record Date will be entitled to vote at the Meeting. Enel Chile ADS holders that do not cancel their ADSs and do not become record shareholders of Enel Chile on or before the Shareholder Record Date will not have the right to dissent from the Merger under Chilean law for purposes of exercising statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights. Since EGPL is a closely held stockcorporation, only EGPL holders of record at December 20, 2017 (the date of the ESM of EGPL) will be entitled to vote at the ESM of EGPL. Under Chilean law, Enel Chile and EGPL may avoid purchasing shares from shareholdersexercising statutory merger dissenters’ withdrawal rights if within 60 daysfollowing the respective ESMs, a new shareholders’ meeting approves the revocation of the Merger.Therefore, if the Merger is revoked within the term indicated above, Enel Chile will not purchase Enel Chile shares from the Enel Chile shareholders exercising statutory merger dissenters��� withdrawal rightsand Enel Chile ADS holders who cancelled their Enel Chile ADSs to become shareholders of record of Enel Chile will continue to be Enel Chile shareholders and may incur additional fees in order to redeposit their Enel Chile shares into the Enel Chile ADS program.
24
ITEM 3–THE CAPITAL INCREASE
As part of the Reorganization,, the Company isseeking to increase Enel Chile’s capital through theissuance of new shares of common stock of Enel Chile, all of which will be from same series and without par value, at the price and other conditions approved at the Meeting. The proposed price for the Capital Increase is Ch$82 per Enel Chile share. In accordance with the bylaws of Enel Chile, the Capital Increase must be approved by the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the outstanding voting shares of Enel Chile. Once the Capital Increase is approved by the shareholders, Enel Chile must carry out the necessary actions to register the new shares with the SVS and the Chilean Stock Exchanges.
Under Chilean law, existing shareholders of a company have preemptive rights to subscribe for additional shares issued by means of a capital increase pro rata in proportion to their interest in thecompany (“preemptive rights”). Also under Chilean law, a preemptive rights offering is conducted fora 30-calendar day period following the publication by the company of a notice in a newspaper with national coverage of the commencement of the preemptive rights offering period with respect to the newly issued shares.
The Capital Increase includes new Enel Chile shares required in order to have a sufficient number of Enel Chile shares available to issue to tendering holders of Enel Generación shares and ADSs in the Tender Offer in satisfaction of the Enel Chile U.S. Share/ADS Subscription Condition and the Enel Chile Share Subscription Condition. In the Reorganization, the existing holders of Enel Chile shares (including Enel) will have preemptive rights to subscribe for additional Enel Chile shares pro rata in connection with the newly issued shares of Enel Chile, other than the Enel Chile shares to be issued in connection with the Merger. In addition, Enel Chile shares underlying Enel Chile ADSs will have preemptive rights to subscribe for additional Enel Chile shares pro rata. Any existing holders of Enel Chile shares that have preemptive rights in connection with the Capital Increase will be able to exercise such preemptive rights only by paying cash for the newly issued Enel Chile shares.
Enel Chile ADS holders do not hold Enel Chile shares directly and are not listed as shareholders on Enel Chile’s share registry. Therefore, any Enel Chile ADS holder that wishes to exercise preemptive rights with respect to the Capital Increase must cancel such holder’s Enel Chile ADSs and receive the EnelChile shares underlying such Enel Chile ADSs and the corresponding preemptive rights.
The Capital Increase and the related preemptive rights offering will not be effective if any of the eventsdescribed in “Item 1–Approval of the Reorganization as a Related Party Transaction—Conditions of the Reorganization—Conditions of the Capital Increase”occur.
As a practical matter, if holders of Enel Chile shares exercise preemptive rights and subscribe for new Enel Chile shares in excess of the limit required in order to have a sufficient number of Enel Chile shares available to issue to tendering holders of Enel Generación shares and ADSs in satisfaction of the Enel Chile U.S. Share/ADS Subscription Condition and the Enel Chile Share Subscription Condition, the condition to the Tender Offer that there be a sufficient number of Enel Chile shares available to issue in the subscriptions by tendering holders of Enel Generación shares and ADSs in connection with the Tender Offer cannot be satisfied.
25
ITEM 4–AUTHORIZATION TO VOTE IN FAVOR OF THE AMENDMENTS TO THE ENEL GENERACIÓN BYLAWS (ESTATUTOS)
The Board of Directors of the Company is proposing that the shareholders authorize Mr. HermanChadwick Piñera, the Chairman of the Board, or his designee, to vote Enel Chile’s shares of EnelGeneración in favor of the proposed amendments to the bylaws (estatutos) of Enel Generación to remove the limitations and restrictions set forth under Title XII of DL 3,500, including, among other things, the 65% ownership limitation by any single shareholder.
Specifically, Enel Generación is seeking to eliminate Articles 1 bis, 5 bis, 16 bis, 20 bis, 35 bis, 36 bis, 40 bis, 42 bis, 43 bis and 44 bis of the Enel Generación bylaws. The approval of these amendments isa condition precedent to the launch of the Tender Offer. See “Item 1–Approval of the Reorganization as a Related Party Transaction—Conditions of the Reorganization—Conditions of the Amendments to the Bylaws of Enel Generación.”
The amendments would, among other things, have the following principal effects:
In addition, if the amendments to the Enel Generación bylaws are approved and become effective, Enel Generación will not be subject to Title XII of DL 3,500 and AFPs may no longer be able to invest in Enel Generación at the same levels permitted under Title XII of DL 3,500.
Copies of the original Spanish version and an English translation of the full text of the proposed amendments toEnel Generación’sbylaws areavailable on Enel Generación’swebsite at www.enelgeneracion.cl and are incorporated herein by reference.

26
ITEM 5–AMENDMENT OF THE BYLAWS (ESTATUTOS) OF ENEL CHILE
The Board of Directors of the Company has approved, subject to the approval by shareholders of the Company, amendments to the bylaws of the Company, as follows:
The Board of Directors will also preparean amended and restated version of the Company’sbylaws reflecting the amendments approved by shareholders at the Meeting.

Opinion of Independent Evaluator of Enel Generación (Banchile)
Banchile concluded that that the Reorganization would contribute to the best interest of Enel Generación shareholders that participate in the Tender Offer, assuming that the terms of the Reorganization are withinBanchile’s recommended valuation ranges set forth below.
Banchile concluded that the following valuation ranges reflect prevailing market conditions for each company in the context of the Reorganization:
Enel Chile: |
|
Enel Generación: |
|
EGPL: |
|
Based on such valuations, Banchile concluded that such recommended valuation ranges imply the following exchange ratios in connection with the Tender Offer and the Merger:
Tender Offer: | 6.6 to 7.5 Enel Chile shares for each Enel Generación share |
Merger: | 14.9 to 17.2 Enel Chile shares for each EGPL share |
However, Banchile indicated that it believes that the Reorganization is not neutral to EnelGeneración’s shareholders that do not participate in theTender Offer as shareholders that remain in Enel Generación may be affected by (i) deteriorated liquidity of Enel Generación shares after the Tender Offer; (ii) the fact that Enel Generación’s controlling shareholder will obtain additional corporategovernance rights (i.e., super-majority voting power); and (iii) potential loss of capital gains tax exemption benefits to certain shareholders of Enel Generación if Enel Generaciónshares lose “sufficient stock market liquidity” (presencia bursátil) status under Chilean law.

Opinion of Additional Independent Evaluator of Enel Generación (ASSET Chile)
ASSET Chile concluded that the Reorganization would be to the benefit of the shareholders of Enel Generación who decide to accept the Tender Offer, assuming that the terms of the Reorganization are within the ranges described below as ASSET Chile believes the Reorganization to be an opportunityto capture the full value of such shareholders’ current holding plus a premium and to fully align theirinterest with the controlling shareholder, Enel Chile.
ASSET Chile’s valuationresults for Enel Generación, Enel DistribuciónChile S.A. (“Enel Distribución”), a company consolidated by Enel Chile,and EGPL, were as follows:
Enel Generación | Enel | EGPL | |||||
(Ch$ billion) | Distribución | (US$ million) | |||||
(Ch$ billion) | |||||||
Low | Medium | High | Medium | Low | Medium | High | |
Enterprise Value | 5,246 | 5,353 | 5,595 | 1,694 | 2,834 | 2,899 | 2,991 |
Equity Value | 4,417 | 4,524 | 4,766 | 1,599 | 1,578 | 1,643 | 1,735 |
EV/EBITDA 2018E | 9.0x | 9.2x | 9.6x | 8.5x | 10.6x | 10.8x | 11.2x |
Share Price | Ch$538 | Ch$552 | Ch$581 | Ch$1,390 | US$1.91 | US$1.99 | US$2.10 |
Based on such valuation and assuming a 100% exchange of Enel Chile shares for shares of Enel Generación, ASSET Chile concluded that the implied exchange ratio for the Tender Offer should be in the range of 7.2 to 8.5 shares of Enel Chile for each share of Enel Generación, and the exchange ratio for the Merger should be in the range of 15.1 to 19.0 shares of Enel Chile for each share of EGPL. In addition, ASSET Chile noted that certain shareholders of Enel Generación may decide not to accept the Tender Offer despite potential risk of a liquidity discount after the Tender Offer but concluded that the Reorganization, if executed on the terms above, would be either neutral or positive for such Enel Generación shareholders.
