Dear Sirs,

 

RE: Merger by Absorption between Telecom Argentina S.A. (the “Surviving Company”) and Cablevisión S.A. (the “Absorbed Company”) (the “Merger”)

 

Minute of the transfer of operations from the Absorbed Company to the Surviving Company

 

I am writing to you as Chairman of Telecom Argentina S.A. (“Telecom Argentina” or the “Company”), following up on the information submitted through a letter dated last December 22, 2017.

 

In this respect, we inform you that having been fulfilled all the conditions to which the Merger was subject to according to Section Seventh of the Preliminary Merger Agreement and the Final Merger Agreement, on January 1, 2018 was signed the Minute of the Transfer of Operations from the Absorbed Company to the Surviving Company, which complements the Final Merger Agreement subscribed on October 31, 2017.

 

As a consequence, as foreseen in the Preliminary Merger Agreement and in the Final Merger Agreement, since 12:00 a.m. on January 1, 2018, the Merger has become effective and, consequently, it has taken place the change in the composition of the Board of Directors, that has been duly informed last December 28, as well as a change of control of the Company, being Cablevisión Holding S.A. its new controlling shareholder since January 1, 2018.

 

Sincerely,
