In January <strong>20</strong>09 we started operations in our new distribution center in Hermosillo, Sonora. The new facility quadrupled the storage capacity of the previous center<br />

and features semi-automatic picking capabilities, thus allowing for more efficient distribution to the surrounding region.<br />

In Brazil, we lease all of the properties where our retail pharmacies are located, as well as one distribution center in São João <strong>de</strong> Meriti which has approximately 5,000<br />

square meters of storage space and is used to provi<strong>de</strong> local logistics support to our pharmacies. In Mexico and Chile, we currently lease all of the properties where our retail pharmacies<br />

are located as well as the 48,750 square meter Mexican distribution center that is located in Guadalupe, Nuevo Leon and that provi<strong>de</strong>s service to Benavi<strong>de</strong>s. All of the properties,<br />

equipment and our inventory are covered by insurance policies. The insurance program inclu<strong>de</strong>s coverage against a variety of risks such as fire and theft, as well as third party liability<br />

and the temporary shutdown of the business due to natural disasters.<br />

In addition to our distribution centers, we also own the approximately 3,500 square meter site (2,548 square meters of construction) of the Sports Clinic facility located<br />

in Tampico, Tamaulipas, as well as all of the necessary equipment for its operation.<br />
