3. Project Goal

The goal is to build in the Sierras de Minas, a completely ecologic bottling plant, which will not alter the environment and surroundings. The plant will be conceived entirely to meet the international markets

requirements, and will have an extraordinary level of design and will count with a state of the art technology.

Trace Mineral Bottling Water

Plant

The plant will use "state of the art "technology provided by leading companies in the water and beverage industry

First plant of its kind to be built in Uruguay and the region. The plant will be designed and constructed in accordance with the requirements of the FDA and similar institutions for mineral water bottling plants (carbonated and not carbonated). The production will be sold 100% abroad.

An excellent quality product at a very competitive cost will be obtained. The quality of the water to be bottled is superior to that of the main Premium Waters of the world.

The project will usufruct the fiscal benefits granted by Uruguay (Exemption of Corporate Income Tax, Wealth Tax, VAT, customs duties), which added to the financial structuring (49% debt), makes the project very profitable

“Eco Mineral Water” will produce Trace Mineral Natural Water

Promoter counts with a good track record in strategic planning activities and development of architectural and engineering projects in Uruguay.

process due to the technology to be used, will permit to obtain an excellent quality product at a

low cost. The mentioned above, coupled with steady growth prospects of regional and global

demand of natural mineral water, the optimization of the project´s financial structure, and the

obtaining of fiscal benefits which will be granted by the Executive Power once the project is

declared of national interest, are the key success factors of this project.

Uruguay´s government recognizes the important role of the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) and maintains a favorable investment

climate.

The country has a track record of attracting large investments in agricultural, industrial, services and infrastructure.

The current Investment Promotion System is delineated in Law Nº 16.906 (“Investment Law”), which was approved in 1998. This law

declares that the promotion and protection of investments made by domestic and foreign investors in the country is an issue of national

interest.

Domestic and foreign investors are treated equally

Foreign investments do not require prior authorization or registration

Free transferability of capital and profits overseas

In 2007 the government approved by decree (455/007) a new regulation of the “Investment Law”, which stimulates productive investment

granting fiscal benefits to those companies that invest in projects that contribute to reach the goals of the economic policy, independent of

the amount to be invested, the sector of activity nor juridical form.

3. Uruguay´s New Investment Promotion Regime 3. Uruguay´s New Investment Promotion Regime

Uruguay´s New Investment Promotion Regime

The benefit investments are those that at least achieve one of the following objectives:

Generate employment

Increase merchandises and services exports

Use of cleaner technology

Invest in R + D + I

Location in less developed area (favor decentralization)

Increase national value added

Generate positive impact on the GDP

The new Regime extends the tax benefits that an investment can access, democratizing the access and simplifying the required procedures for obtaining benefits. Through this new regulation the base of

beneficiaries is extended and SME have better accessibility conditions.

Uruguay´s New Investment Promotion Regime

a. Increase the GDP/Investment ratio so as to increase total factor productivity and capital-labor

relationship.

b. Broadening the base of beneficiaries.

c. Providing access to the benefits to SME.

d. Giving more benefits to enterprises that have a greater impact on the

economy according to the criteria and objectives of the economic policy

e. Monitor the project implementation to achieve greater transparency.

Goals of the New Investment Promotion Regime

The benefits for companies whose investments are promoted by the Executive Branch include:

- Wealth Tax (WT)

Exemption from WT on civil works projects for up to 8 years if located in

Montevideo and up to 10 years if located outside the capital; and

exemption from WT on fixed asset moveable goods during the entire useful

life of these goods.

-Import taxes and fees

Exemption from import taxes and fees for moveable fixed

asset goods that are declared non-competitive to national industry.

-Value Added Tax (VAT)

Return of 100% of VAT for local acquisition (duly documented) of materials and services used for civil works projects.

Benefits

-Fees and salaries in priority technological development areas

Calculate the amounts corresponding to salaries and fees for the project's

scientific and technological development in priority areas for 1.5 times

the payment of Corporate Income Tax with a maximum being equal to

the amount of the tax that does not benefit from investment exemptions

established in the system.

- Corporate Income Tax (CIT)

Exemption from CIT for an amount and maximum term (equivalent to up

to 100% of the invested amount, during a term of 25 years) that will be

applied to the objectives and indicators matrix according to the type and size

of the project..

WITH THIS INVESTMENT PROMOTION SYSTEM, INVESTORS CAN OBTAIN AN EXEMPTION THAT

GOES FROM 51% TO 100% OF THE INVESTMENT.

Benefits

The company must present its investment project to the COMAP (Application Commission depending on the Ministry of

Economy & Finance) requesting promotional status. COMAP studies the investment projects and evaluates them according to

an indicators matrix so as to grant benefits.

The evaluation period from the time the project is received by COMAP varies

according to classification.

The periods COMAP has to establish rulings are as follows:

- Small projects: 30 work days (may be extended if more information is required).

- Medium-sized projects: 45 work days (may be extended if more information is required).

- Large projects: 60 work days (may be extended if more information is required).

In the case that the time period expires without a ruling by COMAP, it shall be understood that COMAP has recommended

that the Executive Branch grant the benefits established for the project.

Straight forward procedure to obtain benefits

Once COMAP makes its ruling (or when there is a default approval), the Executive Branch has an undetermined time period to sign the resolution that grants the benefits to the company. After the investment project receives promotional status, COMAP will monitor the project. The company must present accounting statements with an audit report for all projects and a sworn declaration with information for the analysis of compliance with indicators for benefit application.
