to achieve this objective it has launched through Duke Energy International an
offer to purchase in Chile, from Chilean shareholders, for up to 3,680.9 million
shares (44.48%) and another in the United States (Tender Offer) for up to 501.9
million shares (6.12%) directed towards foreign shareholders.

BANCHILE has been the Stock Exchange Broker hired by Duke to carry out the
purchase of the shares of Endesa in Chile, which will materialize through an
Auction to take place on a stock exchange in Chile on a date to be informed
further on, put that is assumed should take place during the last days of April.
In this connection, Banchile shall be in charge of managing the commercial and
operative aspects of the offer, receiving the sales orders and implementing the
purchase of the securities in the auction.

ENDESA is a company with 8,201 million issued shares, which are distributed
among approximately 43,000 shareholders. Pursuant to information available as of
February 25, 1999, the AFPs own jointly considered a total of 2,250 million
shares (27.51%), while Enersis jointly considered with Inmobiliaria Manso de
Velasco own 2,070 million shares (25.28%), the ADR holders have 13.61% of the
shares and other big investors own 5.32%. The remaining 28.28% is formed by
approximately 42,900 minority shareholders distributed along the country.


CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PURCHASE OF SHARES OFFER (PSO)

Duke offers to purchase in Chile, from Chilean shareholders, a total of
3,680,947,436 shares at a price of CH$ 250 PER SHARE.

These 250 pesos paid per share represent a premium of 51% over the price of 165
pesos per share, which is the average value during the month of November of
1998, when the intent of Duke to take control of Endesa and the intent of
Enersis to sell its participation in Endesa was not yet known.

In the event that there are offers for sale that exceed the total number of
shares which Duke has offered to buy, the latter will purchase shares PRORATE to
the number of shares each shareholder has decided to sell. This means that not
all the shares ordered to sell by a shareholder could be actually purchased by
Duke. The prorate system guarantees fairness conditions for all shareholders,
regardless of the number of securities they may own.

The shares that may possibly remain in the hands of the shareholders, as a
result of the prorate system being applied, will enable [the shareholders] to
associate themselves with a great company such as Duke, which has stated that
Endesa will be a key player in its expansion in Latin America. Duke will be able
contribute financial, technical and human resources to the development of
Endesa.


RECEPTION OF SALES ORDERS

         Banchile is receiving from shareholders of Endesa the sales orders for
their shares as of March 4 and up to 12 hours of the fifth stock exchange
working day prior to the auction date.


The shares offered for sale must be entirely paid for, free of liens,
prohibitions, claims, etc.

The sales offer shall be revocable up to 18 hours of the second stock exchange
working day prior to the Auction date.


CONDITIONS TO CARRY OUT THE AUCTION

         It is an essential condition to carry out the Auction that, previously,
an Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting of Endesa, to take place next April 8,
approves the increase in the maximum ownership concentration level of Endesa
from 26% to 65%. Once the aforementioned condition actually takes place, Duke
shall publish within the 10 stock exchange working days that follow the
legalization of the bylaws, an advertisement in the El Mercurio newspaper
informing of such circumstance and fixing the date for the Auction, which must
take place within the next 10 stock exchange working days as of the date of
publication of such advertisement.


It is also a condition that there be sales offers in Chile for at least 3,680.9
million. This condition, however, may be waived by Duke at its sole discretion.

In the event that the auction is suspended, Banchile shall deliver the shares
within the 7 working days term that follows the date of the suspension of the
auction.
