Dear Sirs,

 

RE.: Information on lawsuit styled “Proconsumer c/Cablevisión S.A. s/sumarísimo” (Case file 4956/2015).

I write to you, as Attorney in Fact of Telecom Argentina S.A (“Telecom Argentina” or “the Company”), in order to inform you that the Company, in its capacity as successor company of Cablevisión S.A., has been notified of the lawsuit referred to in the subject line above, initiated by the “Asociación Protección Consumidores del Mercado Común del Sur – Proconsumer” (“Proconsumer”) before the National Court of First Instance on Federal Commercial Matters No. 17, Secretary No. 33.

The lawsuit filed by Proconsumer seeks, in summary, the “halting of invoicing sums of money related to the REVISTA MIRADAS charge or any other analogous charge, to clients of the Codified Cable and Air Television Services throughout the country” and the “reimbursement to clients of the Codified Cable and Air Television Services throughout the country, the amounts paid and charged on a monthly basis in Invoices or Account Statements under the line item REVISTA MIRADAS, plus the legal interests, from January 2008, up to and including the date the collection of the aforementioned charge is effectively halted.”

The aforementioned lawsuit is for an undetermined amount.

The defendant in this lawsuit is Cablevisión S.A., the claim was answered and we will defend its interests with respect to this legal action with the assistance of legal counsel. In the opinion of our legal counsel, it is unlikely that the claims set forth in the lawsuit will generate a significant adverse resolution for the Company.

Sincerely,

 

 

Telecom Argentina S.A.

 

         /s/ Andrea V. Cerdán        

Attorney in Fact
