ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES
We are a limited liability company (sociedad de responsabilidad limitada) organized under the laws of the
Republic of Panama. Substantially all of our administrators and executive officers reside outside the United States,
all of our assets are located outside the United States, and certain of the experts named in this offering memorandum
also reside outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process
within the United States upon these persons, including with respect to matters arising under the federal securities
laws of the U.S., or to enforce against any of us or them in U.S. courts judgments predicated upon the civil liability
provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States. However, we have appointed CT Corporation System,
with offices currently located at 111 Eighth Avenue, 13th Floor, New York, New York 10011, as our authorized
agent in connection with the Notes and the Indenture, upon which process may be served in any suit or proceeding
arising out of or relating to the foregoing that may be instituted against us in any federal or state court located in the
County of New York, State of New York.
We have been advised by our Panamanian counsel that no treaty exists between the United States and
Panama for the reciprocal enforcement of foreign judgments and that judgments of courts outside Panama, including
but not limited to judgments of United States courts, may only be recognized and enforced by the courts of Panama
in the event that the Supreme Court of Panama validates the judgment by the issuance of a writ of exequatur.
Subject to a writ of exequatur, any final judgment rendered by any federal or state court located in the State of New
York will be recognized, conclusive and enforceable in the courts of Panama without reconsideration of the merits,
provided that (i) such foreign court grants reciprocity to the enforcement of judgments of courts of Panama, (ii) the
party against whom the judgment was rendered, or its agent, was personally served (service by mail not being
sufficient) in such action within such foreign jurisdiction, (iii) the judgment arises out of a personal action against
the defendant, (iv) the obligation in respect of which the judgment was rendered is lawful in Panama and does not
contradict the public policy of Panama, (v) the judgment is properly authenticated by diplomatic or consular officers
of Panama or pursuant to the 1961 Hague Convention on the legalization of documents and (vi) a copy of the final
judgment is translated into Spanish by a licensed translator in Panama.
We have been advised by our Panamanian legal counsel, that there is doubt as to the enforceability of
original actions in Panamanian courts of liabilities predicated solely on the U.S. federal securities laws and as to the
enforceability in Panamanian courts of judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions predicated upon the civil
liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws of the U.S.
See "Risk Factors--Risks relating to Panama--It may be difficult to enforce civil liabilities against us or
our administrators and executive officers and controlling persons."

business;
