Messrs.

Att. Mr. Brian Smith

Rio de Janeiro-RJ,
Brazil



Gentlemen,


     The purpose of this Letter of Intent (the "Letter") is to summarize the
essential terms and conditions of a possible swap by Embotelladora Andina S.A.
("EASA") or its Brazilian subsidiary Rio de Janeiro Refrescos Ltda. ("RJRL")
(EASA and RJRL hereinafter jointly referred to as "ANDINA"), of shares held or
to be held by ANDINA representing 100% of the capital stock of a company that
owns or will own certain assets and rights (as hereinafter described) in the
territory of Governador Valadares, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, in exchange
for shares held or to be held by Recofarma Industria do Amazonas Ltda
("RECOFARMA") representing 100% of the capital stock of a company that owns or
will own certain assets and rights (as hereinafter described) in the territory
of Nova Iguacu, state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, hereinafter referred to as the
"Possible Transaction".

     ANDINA and RECOFARMA (also hereinafter the "Parties") agree to negotiate
with each other in good faith and to diligently work, in a collaborative manner,
towards attempting to arrive upon mutually satisfactory terms and conditions for
the Possible Transaction. Neither Party shall have any liability to the other,
however, in the event that the Parties are not able to consummate the Potential
Transaction for any reason.

     The Parties currently envision that the specific terms and conditions of
the Possible Transaction would include, but not be limited to, the following:

1. Swap of Shares.

     1.1 ANDINA's intention is to acquire from RECOFARMA, by means of a swap of
shares, 100% of the shares of a company (the "Nova Iguacu Company") that owns or
will own on the Closing Date (as defined below in paragraph 4) substantially all
of the goods, rights and assets, including working capital (to be based on an
adequate amount of finshed product inventory, to be discussed and agreed between
the Parties), currently used in or useful for the operations of Companhia
Mineira de Refrescos S.A. ("CMR") as an authorized bottler of Coca-Cola
Industrias Ltda. ("CCIL") in the territory of Nova Iguacu, state of Rio de
Janeiro, under a Bottler's Agreement entered into by CMR and CCIL (the "Nova
Iguacu Business"). ANDINA has been informed that RECOFARMA intends to establish
the Nova Iguacu Company and transfer to the Nova Iguacu Company CMR's Nova
Iguacu territory rights, operating assets, and working capital. ANDINA would
then acquire 100% of the capital stock of the Nova Iguacu Company, by means of
swapping with RECOFARMA 100% of the capital stock of Governador Valadares
Company, as defined below. The shares of the Nova Iguacu Company to be possibly
acquired by ANDINA would be free and clear of any encumbrances, restrictions or
liabilities of any kind.

     1.2 RECOFARMA's intention is to acquire from ANDINA, by means of a swap of
shares, 100% of the shares of a company (the "Governador Valadares Company")
that owns or will own on the Closing Date substantially all of the goods, rights
and assets, including working capital (to be based on an adequate amount of
finisihed product inventory, to be discussed and agreed between the Parties),
currently used in or useful for RJRL's operations as an authorized bottler of
CCIL in the territory of Governador Valadares, state of Minas Gerais, under a
Bottler's Agreement entered into by RJRL and CCIL (the "Governador Valadares
Business"). ANDINA intends to establish the Governador Valadares Company and
transfer to the Governador Valadares Company RJRL's Governador Valadares
territory rights, operating assets, working capital, as well as a cash amount in
Brazilian currency corresponding to US$ 15,500,000.00 (fifteen million five
hundred thousand United States dollars), according to Brazil Central Bank's
average ask/bid PTAX 800 exchange rate as of the business day preceding the
Closing Date. RECOFARMA would then acquire 100% of the capital stock of the
Governador Valadares Company, by means of swapping with ANDINA 100% of the
capital stock of Nova Iguacu Company. The shares of the Governor Valadares
Company to be possibly acquired by RECOFARMA would be free and clear of any
encumbrances, restrictions or liabilities of any kind.

     1.3 RECOFARMA and CMR would jointly and severally indemnify, defend and
hold harmless ANDINA from and against any liabilities of any kind incurred with
respect both to the


<PAGE>


                EMBOTELLADORA ANDINA S.A.



Nova Iguacu Business and to any other business carried on by CMR or RECOFARMA
prior to the Closing Date (as hereinafter defined), and EASA and RJRL would
jointly and severally indemnify, defend and hold harmless RECOFARMA and CMR from
and against any liabilities of any kind incurred with respect both to the
Governador Valadares Business and to any other business carried on by RJRL or
EASA prior to the Closing Date. On the Closing Date, neither the Nova Iguacu
Company nor the Governador Valadares Company would have or be liable for any
debt (other than trade payables incurred in the ordinary course of business
which are not past due) or own any property which is subject to any liens,
restrictions or encumbrances of any kind (other than any nonmonetary
encumbrances which are acceptable to ANDINA or RECOFARMA, as the case may be).

2. Due Diligence. The Possible Transaction is subject to the satisfactory
completion of due diligence investigations of CMR, RJRL, the Nova Iguacu Company
and the Governador Valadares Company for the purpose of assessing any existing
contingencies related thereto, which may affect the Possible Transaction. Such
investigations are to be performed by ANDINA and RECOFARMA or their designees,
at their respective cost. The Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to
complete their due diligence investigation within 30 days of the date hereof.
The investigation shall include, without limitation, financial, legal, labor,
tax and environmental matters.

3. Agreement. Upon completion of the Parties' due diligence reviews of CMR and
RJRL, at their respective cost and satisfaction, the terms and conditions of the
Possible Transaction will be set forth in a definitive Swap Agreement and in
such other possibly required related agreements (hereinafter the "Agreement") to
be negotiated in a manner consistent with this Letter. The Agreement will be
prepared by the Parties' attorneys in a form customary for transactions of this
type, size and complexity. The Agreement, in addition to those matters
specifically set forth in this Letter, will contain customary representations,
covenants and agreements of RECOFARMA and ANDINA, with adequate survival,
termination and indemnification provisions and reasonable and appropriate
limitations thereon, as are customary in transactions of this type and size,
including, without limitation, indemnification against any future liability
arising from any pre-existing environmental conditions or antitrust claims.
ANDINA and RECOFARMA will use their reasonable best efforts to cause the
Agreement to be executed within 45days of the date hereof.

      The Agreement will also include various conditions of closing including,
without limitation: (i) the completion of any conditions precedent to be agreed
by the Parties, (ii) that the Parties' due diligence reviews of the Nova Iguacu
Company and its related assets and business, the Governador Valadares Company

(v) that all waiting periods (if any) have been complied with. All costs
incurred in connection with any governmental approvals that may be required for
the completion of the Possible Transaction shall be equally shared by the
Parties.

4. Closing. Subject to negotiation of the Agreement, ANDINA and RECOFARMA will
use their reasonable best efforts to cause all conditions to be satisfied and
