Control on Reserves and Reserves Audits.&#8221; Often a reserves audit includes a
detailed review of certain critical assumptions and independent assessments with
acceptance of other information less critical to the reserves estimation.
Typically, a reserves audit letter should be of sufficient rigor to determine
the appropriate reserves classification for all reserves in the property set
evaluated and to clearly state the reserves classification system being
utilized. In contrast to the term &#8220;audit&#8221; as used in a financial sense, a

estimation of reserves and other reserves information is an imprecise science
due to the many unknown geological and reservoir factors that can only be
estimated through sampling techniques. Since reserves are therefore only
estimates, they cannot be audited for the purpose of verifying exactness.
Instead, reserves information is audited for the purpose of reviewing in
sufficient detail the policies, procedures, methods and data used by us in
estimating our reserves information so that the reserves auditors may express an
opinion as to whether, in the aggregate, the reserves information furnished by
us is reasonable within established and predetermined tolerances and has been
estimated and presented in conformity with generally accepted petroleum
engineering and evaluation principles and within the rules and regulations of
the SEC.</font></div>

standard for an &#8220;Independent Qualified Reserves Auditor&#8221; is that an Independent
Qualified Reserves Auditor is a professional who has sufficient educational
background, professional training and professional experience to enable him or
her to exercise prudent professional judgment while in charge of the conduct of
an audit of reserves information estimated by others. The determination of
whether a Reserves Auditor is professionally qualified is made on an
individual-by-individual basis with reference to the recognition and respect of
his or her peers. A Reserves Auditor would normally be considered by us to be
qualified if he or she (i) has a minimum of 10 years&#8217; practical experience in
petroleum engineering or petroleum production geology, with at least 5 years of
such experience in charge of the estimations and evaluation of reserves
information; and (ii) either (A) has obtained, from a college or university of
recognized stature, a bachelor&#8217;s or advanced degree in petroleum engineering,
geology or other discipline of engineering or physical science, or (B) has
received, and is maintaining in good standing, a registered or certified
professional engineer&#8217;s license or a registered or certified professional
geologist&#8217;s license, or the equivalent thereof, from an appropriate governmental
authority or professional organization.</font></div>

compensation is based only on professional services </font></div>

1, 1991 until the end of 2001, the Convertibility Law (Law No. 23,928)
established a fixed exchange rate under which the Central Bank was obligated to
sell U.S. dollars at one peso per U.S. dollar. On January 6, 2002, the Argentine
Congress enacted the Public Emergency Law (Law No. 25,561, the Public Emergency
and Foreign Exchange System Reform Law), formally putting an end to the
Convertibility Law regime and abandoning over 10 years of U.S. dollar-peso
parity. The Public Emergency Law, which has been extended until December 31,
2008, grants the executive branch of the Argentine government the power to set
the exchange rate between the peso and foreign currencies and to issue
regulations related to the foreign exchange market. Following a brief period
during which the Argentine government established a temporary dual exchange rate
system pursuant to the Public Emergency Law, the peso has been allowed to float
freely against other currencies since February 2002 although the government has
the power to intervene by buying and selling foreign currency for its own
account, a practice in which it engages on a regular basis.</font></div>

December 1989, the Argentine foreign exchange market was subject to exchange
controls. From December 1989 until April 1991, Argentina had a freely floating
exchange rate for all foreign currency transactions, and the transfer of
dividend payments in foreign currency abroad and the repatriation of capital
were permitted without prior approval of the Central Bank. From April 1, 1991,
when the Convertibility Law became effective, until December 21, 2001, when the
Central Bank closed the foreign exchange market, the Argentine currency was
freely convertible into U.S. dollars.</font></div>

December 3, 2001, the Argentine government imposed a number of monetary and
currency exchange control measures through Decree 1570/01, which included
restrictions on the free disposition of funds deposited with banks and tight
restrictions on transferring funds abroad (including the transfer of funds to
pay dividends) without the Central Bank&#8217;s prior authorization subject to
specific exceptions for transfers related to foreign trade. Since January 2003,
the Central Bank has gradually eased these restrictions and expanded the list of
transfers of funds abroad that do not require its prior authorization (including
the transfer of funds to pay dividends). In June 2003, the Argentine government
set restrictions on capital flows into Argentina, which mainly consisted of a
prohibition against the transfer abroad of any funds until 180 days after their
entry into the country. In June 2005, the government established further
restrictions on capital flows into Argentina, including increasing the period
that certain incoming funds must remain in Argentina to 365 calendar days and
requiring that 30% of incoming funds be deposited with a bank in Argentina in a
non-assignable, non-interest-bearing account for 365 calendar days. Under the
exchange regulations currently in force, restrictions exist in respect of the
repatriation of funds or investments by non-Argentine residents. For instance,
subject only to limited exceptions, the repatriation by non-Argentine residents
of funds received as a result of the sale of the Class D shares in the secondary
market is subject to a limit of U.S.$500,000 per person per calendar month. In
order to repatriate such funds abroad, non-Argentine residents also are required
to demonstrate that the funds used to make the investment in the Class D shares
were transferred to Argentina at least 365 days before the proposed
repatriation. The transfer abroad of dividend payments is currently authorized
by applicable regulations to the extent that such dividend payments are made in
connection with audited financial statements and are approved by a shareholders&#8217;
meeting.</font></div>

concessions occurs in 2017. The authority to extend the terms of current and new
permits, concessions and contracts has been vested in the governments of the
provinces in which the relevant area is located (and the federal government in
respect of offshore areas beyond 12 nautical miles). In order to be eligible for
the extension, any concessionaire and permit holder must have complied with its
obligations under the Federal Hydrocarbons Law and the terms of the particular
concession or permit, including evidence of payment of taxes and royalties, the
supply of the necessary technology, equipment and labor force and compliance
with various environmental, investment and development obligations. Under the
Federal Hydrocarbons Law, non-compliance with these obligations and standards
may also result in the imposition of fines and in the case of material breaches,
following the expiration of applicable cure periods, the revocation of the
concession or permit. We cannot provide assurances that our concessions will be
extended or that additional investment, royalty payment or other requirements
will not be imposed on us in order to obtain extensions. The termination of, or
failure to obtain the extension of, a concession or permit could have a material
adverse effect on our business and results of our

As a holder of ADRs representing the ADSs being held by the depositary in your

with the deposit agreement relating to the ADSs. There are no provisions under
Argentine law or under our bylaws that limit the exercise by ADS holders of
their voting rights through the depositary with respect to the underlying Class
D shares. However, there are practical limitations on the ability of ADS holders
to exercise their voting rights due to the additional procedural steps involved
in communicating with these holders. For example, holders of our shares will
receive notice of shareholders&#8217; meetings through publication of a notice in an
official gazette in </font><font style="DISPLAY: inline; COLOR: #000000">Argentina</font><font style="DISPLAY: inline; COLOR: #000000">, an Argentine newspaper of general
circulation and the bulletin of the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, and will be
able to exercise their voting rights by either attending the meeting in person
or voting by proxy. ADS holders, by comparison, will not receive notice directly
from us. Instead, in accordance with the deposit agreement, we will provide the
notice to the depositary. If we ask it to do so, the depositary will mail to
holders of ADSs the notice of the meeting and a statement as to the manner in
which instructions may be given by holders. To exercise their voting rights, ADS
holders must then instruct the depositary as to voting the Class D shares
represented by their ADSs. Due to these procedural steps involving the
depositary, the process for exercising voting rights may take longer for ADS
holders than for holders of Class D shares, and Class D shares represented by
ADSs may not be voted as you desire. Class D shares represented by ADSs for
which the depositary fails to receive timely voting instructions may, if
requested by us, be voted as we instruct at the corresponding

response to the economic crisis of 2001 and 2002, the Argentine government,
pursuant to the Public Emergency Law (Law No. 25,561), established export taxes
on certain hydrocarbon products. In subsequent years, in order to satisfy
growing domestic demand and abate inflationary pressures, this policy was
supplemented by constraints on domestic prices, temporary export restrictions
and subsidies on imports of natural gas and diesel. As a result, local prices
for oil and natural gas products have remained significantly below those
prevalent in neighboring countries and international commodity exchanges,
heightening domestic demand for such products. For example, in January 2008,
diesel import prices were approximately U.S.$700/cubic meter, while the average
domestic sales prices were approximately U.S.$350/cubic meter before government
subsidies. In addition, the price at which Bolivia exports natural gas to
Argentina was approximately U.S.$6/mmBtu in December 2007 (U.S.$6.98/mmBtu in
March 2008), while our average sales price for such gas in Argentina was
approximately U.S.$2.29/mmBtu.</font></div>

gross domestic product, or GDP, has grown at an average annual real rate of
approximately 9% from 2003 to 2006, after declines during the economic crisis of
2001 and 2002. Driven by this economic expansion and low domestic prices, energy
demand has increased significantly during the same period, outpacing energy
supply (which in the case of oil declined). For example, Argentine natural gas
and diesel consumption grew at average annual rates of 6.5% and 6.9%,
respectively, during this period, according to the BP Statistical Review and the
Argentine Secretariat of Energy. As a result of this increasing demand and
actions taken by the Argentine regulatory authorities to support domestic
supply, exported volumes of hydrocarbon products, especially natural gas and
diesel, declined steadily over this period. At the same time, Argentina has
increased hydrocarbon imports, becoming a net importer of certain products, such
as diesel, and increased imports of natural gas. In 2003, Argentina&#8217;s net
exports of diesel amounted to approximately 1,349 thousand cubic meters, while
in 2007 its net imports of diesel amounted to approximately 800 thousand cubic
meters, according to the Argentine Secretariat of Energy. Significant
investments in the energy sector are expected to be required in order to support
continued economic growth, as the industry is currently operating near
capacity.</font></div>

diesel in Argentina exceeds domestic production. In addition, the import prices
of refined products substantially exceed the domestic sales prices of such
products, rendering the import and resale of such products uneconomic. As a
result, service stations experience temporary shortages and are required to
suspend or curtail diesel sales. While we are operating our refineries at or
above capacity, during peak demand periods we are forced to prorate supplies
among our service stations according to historical sales levels.</font></div>

August 1989, Argentina enacted laws aimed at the deregulation of the economy and
the privatization of Argentina&#8217;s state-owned companies, including us. Following
the enactment of these laws, a series of presidential decrees were promulgated,

established the procedures by which we were to be privatized, was enacted. In
accordance with the Privatization Law, in July 1993, we completed a worldwide
offering of 160 million Class D shares that had previously been owned by the
Argentine government. As a result of that offering and other transactions, the
Argentine government&#8217;s ownership percentage in our capital stock was reduced
from 100% to approximately 20% by the end of 1993.</font></div>

respect to production initiatives, we continued to improve our facilities and
focus our efforts to improve operating efficiencies at our key oil and gas
properties. For example, our U.S.$30 million Low Pressure Compression Project at
the Loma La Lata natural gas field became fully operational in August 2007. In
addition, a new natural gas processing and compression plant with a total
capacity of 21 mmcf/d was completed at the Loma La Lata field during the first
half of 2007, at a total cost of U.S.$13 million. This plant fed from 10 high
CO2-content wells and has been operating since June 30, 2007, processing 10.6
mmcf/d. We expect that the new plant will help YPF to keep the Huincul Methanol
plant in service for at least three years.</font></div>

approximately U.S.$22 million) and a water injection project at Rinc&#243;n de los
Sauces in the Neuquina basin, in the Chihuido de la Sierra Negra field, to
mitigate the natural production decline attributable to the maturity of that
field (this project is expected to be completed in 2009 at a total cost of
approximately U.S.$133 million). In the year ended December 31, 2007, we also
repaired 30 wells, drilled eleven new wells to replace collapsed wells and
commenced the revamping of the water treatment plant in Chihuido de la Sierra
Negra (we invested U.S.$21.8 million in these projects in 2007). We also
continued our work on the Water Alternating GAS (WAG) project in Chihuido de la
Sierra Negra in 2007, where a pilot project is expected to be completed in the
first half of 2008. Due to the development of new fields, 55 new wells were

(the minor South Business Unit in the Golfo San Jorge basin), 434 injection
wells were closed due to the application of new state and provincial
regulations, which established tighter anular space control parameters. As a
result, the water injection volume was reduced by 91 mbbls/d during 2007,
resulting in a reduction in production of an estimated 4 mbbls/d net of oil.
Both the Las Heras and Chubut Ca&#241;ad&#243;n Seco economic units<font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold">&#160;</font>have started a
remediation campaign, performing overhauls on 71 wells and drilling five
replacement wells. The total capital expenditure for these jobs was U.S.$15
million.</font></div>

production declines in recent periods are attributable mainly to the continuing
maturity of our fields, although work stoppages and pipeline issues have on
occasion contributed to production and capital project delays. During 2007, in
the UNAS and UNAO (the West Business Unit in the Neuquina and Cuyana basin), a
series of labor and community conflicts halted the production of approximately
1.32 million of barrels of oil equivalent. In December 2006, due to some
problems that affected the main pipeline of Magallanes UTE located in the Tierra
del Fuego province, oil and gas production was stopped. At the beginning of
2007, our joint venture partner began to replace 18.6 km of pipeline (17 km
offshore and 1.6 km onshore), which connects the A3 platform and the battery. In
addition, 3.7 km of pipeline that links the AM2 and AM3 platforms will be
replaced. These works were long-delayed by unfavorable weather conditions, and
are expected to be completed in the first half of 2008. The total contribution
by YPF for this project is estimated to be U.S.$20.9 million.</font></div>

26, 2006, we announced that we would reduce our prior proved reserve estimates
by 509 million boe (55% gas), including 493 million boe corresponding to our
proved developed and undeveloped reserves and 16 million boe corresponding to
proved developed and undeveloped reserves of affiliated companies. The Audit and
Control Committee of our parent company, Repsol YPF, undertook an independent
review of the facts and circumstances of the reduction in proved reserves. The
Audit and Control Committee presented the final conclusions to the Board of
Directors of Repsol YPF at its meeting of June 15, 2006. According to the
independent review, the process for determining reserves with respect to our
fields in Argentina was flawed from 2003 to 2004, and our personnel at times
failed to apply properly SEC criteria for reporting proved
reserves.</font></div>

December 31, 2004, the aggregate effect on proved reserves volumes of the

reserves originally stated at that date (2,330 million boe). Of the total
aggregate effect 87% had been in the proved developed reserves category and 13%
had been categorized as proved undeveloped reserves. The reserves restatement

estimate (based on preliminary reports of amounts delivered by transport
companies) that natural gas consumption in Argentina totaled approximately 1,428
Bcf in 2007. We estimate that the number of users connected to distribution
systems throughout Argentina amounted to approximately 6.9 million as of
December 31, 2007. The domestic natural gas market has grown significantly over
recent years, driven by the forces of economic growth and domestic price and
export constraints, although we do not believe that the natural gas market will
continue to grow at the same rate as it has recently unless significant new
discoveries are made or more gas is imported.</font></div>

natural gas to the domestic market during the period 2007 through 2011 (the
&#8220;Agreement 2007-2011&#8221;). The purpose of the Agreement 2007-2011 is to guarantee
the supply of the domestic market demand at the levels registered in 2006, plus
the growth in demand by residential and small commercial customers (the &#8220;agreed
demand levels&#8221;). Producers that have signed the Agreement 2007-2011, such as us,
would commit to supply a part of the agreed demand levels according to certain
shares determined for each producer based upon such producers&#8217; shares of total
Argentine production for the 36 months prior to April 2004. For this period, our
share of production was approximately 36.5%, or 36.8 mmcm/d The Agreement
2007-2011 also provides guidelines for the terms of supply agreements for each
market segment, and certain pricing limitations for each market
segment.</font></div>

29, 2006, the Bolivian and Argentine governments executed the Framework
Agreement, pursuant to which they agreed that the natural gas imports from
Bolivia to Argentina should be managed by ENARSA. The Framework Agreement
establishes a 20-year delivery plan of between 7.7 and 27.7 mmcm/d of Bolivian
gas to Argentina. The delivery of volumes exceeding 7.7 mmcm/d is subject to the
construction of the North East Pipeline, with an expected capacity of 20 mmcm/d.
The agreed upon price was approximately U.S.$6.98/mmBtu in March 2008, and is
periodically adjusted according to a formula based upon a basket of fuels. The
increased cost of the natural gas purchased pursuant to the Framework Agreement
is currently absorbed by ENARSA and financed by the Argentine government with
the collection of export duties on natural gas. In the context of the Framework
Agreement, on April 25, 2007, we accepted the offer made by ENARSA for the sale
of natural gas obtained by ENARSA from the Republic of Bolivia through December
31, 2009. The principal terms and conditions of our agreement with ENARSA are as
follows: (i) maximum contracted quantity of up to 4.4 mmcm/d; (ii) guaranteed
quantity equal to 60% of the maximum contracted quantity; (iii) annual
take-or-pay quantity equal to 60% of the maximum contracted quantity; (iv) price
of U.S.$1.6/mmBtu for the natural gas plus U.S.$0.237/mmBtu for the liquid
components contained therein; (v) price reopening at any time in relation to
changes in Argentine government&#8217;s compensation to ENARSA; and (vi) limited
allowed curtailments or interruptions of supply due to operative conditions and
scheduled maintenance. This agreement is effective through December 31, 2009.

hold through&#160;our subsidiary YPF Inversora Energ&#233;tica S.A. a 45.33% stake in
Gas Argentino S.A. (&#8220;GASA&#8221;), which in turn holds a 70% stake in Metrogas S.A.
(&#8220;Metrogas&#8221;), which is a natural gas distributor in southern Buenos Aires and
one of the main distributors in Argentina. During 2007, Metrogas distributed
approximately 23.75 million cubic meters of natural gas per day to 2 million
customers in comparison with approximately 23.35 million cubic meters of natural
gas per day distributed to 2 million customers in 2006. The economic crisis that
affected the country at the end of 2001 and beginning of 2002 caused a severe
deterioration of the financial and operational situation of GASA. Thus the
decision was made on March 25, 2002 to suspend payment of principal and interest
on its entire financial debt. From then on, Metrogas&#8217; management has focused on
an efficient and rational use of its cash flow in order to be able to comply
with all of the legal requirements agreed with the Argentine government with
respect to its services. After negotiating a restructuring of its outstanding
debt with its creditors, GASA has reached and executed on December 7, 2005 an
agreement (the Master Restructuring Agreement, or &#8220;MRA&#8221;) with its creditors, by
which such creditors would exchange debt for equity in GASA and/or Metrogas.
After this exchange is completed, YPF Inversora Energ&#233;tica S.A. will hold a
31.7% stake in GASA. The agreement has been presented to the National Antitrust
Protection Board (<font style="FONT-STYLE: italic">Comisi<font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic; FONT-FAMILY: times new roman">&#243;</font>n

governmental entities, and is subject to their approval as condition precedent
to the closing of the MRA. The MRA included a creditors&#8217; option to terminate
that agreement if, by December 7, 2006, the closing of the debt restructuring
had not occurred. While ENARGAS approval has been obtained, the CNDC has not yet
granted its approval, and the closing is still pending. As of the date of this
annual report, however, the creditors have not communicated their intention to
terminate the MRA.</font></div>

same time, Metrogas has reached an agreement with its main creditors in order to
restructure its financial debt and align its future financial commitments to the
expected generation of funds. The main objective of the restructuring process is
to modify certain terms and conditions included in its outstanding loans and
negotiable agreements by adjusting interest rates and the amortization period so
as to align them with the expected cash flow required for repayment of the
indebtedness. Accordingly, on April 20, 2006, Metrogas entered into an
out-of-court preventive agreement with creditors representing approximately 95%
of its unsecured indebtedness, which became effective in May 2006.</font></div>

in the province of Buenos Aires, approximately 60 kilometers from the City of
Buenos Aires. In 2007 the refinery processed approximately 192,500 barrels of
crude oil per calendar day.&#160;&#160;The capacity utilization rate at the La
Plata refinery for 2007 was 7.4% higher than in 2006. The capacity utilization
rate at the La Plata refinery for 2006 was 3.9% higher than in 2005. The crude
oil processed at the La Plata refinery comes mainly from our own production in
the Neuquina and Golfo San Jorge basins. Crude oil supplies for the La Plata
refinery are transported from the Neuquina basin by pipeline and from the Golfo
San Jorge basin by vessel, in each case to Puerto Rosales, and then by pipeline
from Puerto Rosales to the refinery.</font></div>

projects, which were completed during 2006, have allowed us to meet higher
technical requirements imposed by legislation in Argentina that limit the level

executive branch of the Argentine government issues the regulations to
complement these laws. The regulatory framework of the Hydrocarbons Law was
established on the assumption that the reservoirs of hydrocarbons would be
national properties and Yacimientos Petrol&#237;feros Fiscales Sociedad del Estado,
our predecessor, would lead the oil and gas industry and operate under a
different framework than private companies. In 1992, Law No. 24,145, referred to
as the &#8220;Privatization Law,&#8221; privatized YPF and provided for transfer of
hydrocarbon reservoirs from the Argentine government to the provinces, subject
to the existing rights of the holders of exploration permits and production
concessions.</font></div>

Privatization Law granted us 24 exploration permits covering approximately
132,735 square kilometers and 50 production concessions covering approximately
32,560 square kilometers. The Hydrocarbons Law limits to five the number of
concessions that may be held by any one entity, and also limits the total area
of exploration permits that may be granted to a single entity. Based on our
interpretation of the law, we were exempted from such limit with regard to the
exploration permits and production concessions awarded to us by the
Privatization Law. Nevertheless, the National Department of Economy of
Hydrocarbons (<font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic">Direcci&#243;n
Nacional de Econom&#237;a de los Hidrocarburos</font>), applying a restrictive
interpretation of Section 25 and 34 of the Hydrocarbons Law, has objected to the
award of new exploration permits and production concessions in which we have a
100% interest. As a result,<font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold">&#160;</font>our ability to acquire
100% of new exploration permits and/or production concessions has been hindered,
although this interpretation has not impeded our ability to acquire any permits
or concessions where an interest is also granted to other parties. As a
consequence of the transfer of ownership of certain hydrocarbons areas to the
provinces, we participate in competitive bidding rounds organized since the year
2000 by several provincial governments for the award of contracts for the
exploration of hydrocarbons.</font></div>

2004, the Argentine Congress enacted Law No. 25,943 creating a new state-owned
energy company, Energ&#237;a Argentina S.A. The corporate purpose of ENARSA is the
exploration and exploitation of solid, liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons, the
transport, storage, distribution, commercialization and industrialization of
these products, as well as the transportation and distribution of natural
gas,<font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold">&#160;</font>and the
generation, transportation, distribution and sale of electricity. Moreover, Law
No. 25,943 granted to ENARSA all exploration concessions in respect to offshore
areas located beyond 12 nautical miles from the coast line up to the outer
boundary of the continental shelf that were vacant at the time of the
effectiveness of this law (i.e., November 3, 2004).</font></div>

addition, in October 2006, Law No. 26,154 created a regime of tax incentives
aimed at encouraging hydrocarbon exploration and which apply to new exploration
permits awarded in respect of the offshore areas granted to ENARSA and those
over which no rights have been granted to third parties under the Hydrocarbons
Law, provided the provinces in which the hydrocarbon reservoirs are located
adhere to this regime. Association with ENARSA is a precondition to qualifying
for the benefits provided by the regime created by Law No. 26,154. The benefits
include: early reimbursement of the value added tax for investments made and
expenses incurred during the exploration period and for investments made within
the production period; accelerated amortization of investments </font></div>

government in respect of offshore blocks beyond 12 nautical miles). In order to
be entitled to the extension, a concessionaire, such as us, must have complied
with all of its obligations under the Hydrocarbons Law, including, without
limitation, evidence of payment of taxes and royalties and compliance with
environmental, investment and development obligations. Upon the expiration of
the 10-year extension period of the current concessions, the provinces are
entitled to award new concessions or contracts in respect of the relevant

to the Hydrocarbons Law, holders of production concessions, including us, also
are required to pay royalties to the province where production occurs. A 12%
royalty is payable on the value at the wellhead (equal to the price upon
delivery of the product, less transportation, treatment costs and other
deductions) of crude oil production and the natural gas volumes commercialized.
The value is calculated based upon the volume and the sale price of the crude
oil and gas produced, less the costs of transportation and storage. In addition,
if a concession holder allots crude oil production for further industrialization
processes at its plants, the concession holder is required to agree with the
provincial authorities or the Secretariat of Energy, as applicable, on the
reference price to be used for purposes of calculating royalties.</font></div>

in January 2008, the Secretariat of Energy passed Disposition No. 1, which
provided guidelines for the calculation of royalties. Disposition No. 1 sets a
minimum reference price for the calculation of royalties and does not permit
downward adjustments of this price based upon the quality of crude oil. As a
result, the reference price for some of our production calculated according to
Disposition No. 1 is approximately U.S.$10 per barrel higher than the price
calculated according to the methodology set forth in the&#160;Hydrocarbons Law,
as&#160;discussed above.&#160;We are currently evaluating Disposition No.
1.</font></div>

addition to the above, the Public Emergency Law, which created the export
withholdings, established that export withholdings were not to be deducted from
the export price for purposes of calculating the 12% royalties. The royalty
expense is accounted for as a production cost. Any oil and gas produced by the
holder of an exploration permit prior to the grant of a production concession is
subject to the payment of a 15% royalty. See &#8220;Item 8. Financial
Information&#8212;Legal Proceedings&#8212;Argentina&#8212;Neuqu&#233;n royalty disputes.&#8221;</font></div>

pursuant to Sections 57 and 58 of the Hydrocarbons Law, holders of exploration
permits and production concessions must pay an annual surface fee that is based
on acreage of each block and which varies depending on the phase of the
operation, i.e., exploration or production, and in the case of the former,
depending on the relevant period of the exploration permit. Executive Decree No.
1,454/07, dated October 17, 2007, which significantly increased the amount of
exploration and production surface fees expressed in Argentine pesos that are
payable to the provinces in which the hydrocarbon fields are located or, in the
case of offshore and certain other fields, to the Argentine government. In all
cases, the surface fee increased by at least eight times, although the effect of
this increase is not material to us due to the relatively low sums involved. For
example, in 2007 we paid a total of approximately Ps.33 million in surface fees.
In 2008, we expect to pay approximately Ps.90 million in such fees pursuant to
Sections 57 and 58 of the Hydrocarbons Law, due to the application of the recent
increases for a full year.</font></div>

basis (the northern and the southern trunk pipeline systems). This was designed
to give both systems access to gas sources and to the main centers of demand in

transportation companies. The Gas del Estado distribution system was divided
into eight regional distribution companies, including two distribution companies
serving the greater Buenos Aires area. Shares of each of the transportation and

purpose of the Agreement 2007-2011 is to guarantee the supply of the domestic
market demand at the levels registered in 2006, plus the growth in demand by
residential and small commercial customers (the &#8220;agreed demand levels&#8221;).
Producers that have entered into the Agreement 2007-2011 would commit to supply
a part of the agreed demand levels according to certain shares determined for
each producer based upon its share of production for the 36 months prior to
April 2004. For this period, our share of production was approximately 36.5%, or
36.8 mmcm/d (or 1,300 mmcf/d), which in 2007 represented approximately 72% of
our production and was sold at an average price of U.S.$1.52 per mmBtu (or
approximately U.S.$55 per cubic meter). The Agreement 2007-2011 also provides
guidelines for the terms of supply agreements for each market segment, and
certain pricing limitations for each market segment of the agreed demand levels.
In order to guarantee any domestic market demand of natural gas in excess of the
agreed demand levels, Resolution S.E. No. 599/07 m<font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">aintains the effectiveness

Under Resolution S.E. No. 659/04 (amended by Resolution S.E. No. 1,681/04),
natural gas exports may be restricted due to shortages of natural gas in the
domestic market, because exporting producers may be required to supply

and created the Registry of Independent Professionals and Safety Auditing
Companies (<font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic">Registro de

may act with respect to areas of hydrocarbons storage, oil refineries, gas
stations, fuel commercialization plants and plants for fractionation of LPG in
containers or cylinders. The Resolution provides that external audits of oil
refineries, gas stations and all fuel storage plants must be carried out by
professionals registered in the Registry. Domestic fuel manufacturing companies
and companies that sell fuels are prohibited from supplying these products to
any station failing to comply with its obligations. Penalties for failure to
perform the audits and remedial or safety tasks include the disqualification of
plants or gas stations. In addition, a set of obligations is established in
relation to underground fuel storage systems, including a mechanism for instant
notification in cases of loss or suspicion of loss from the storage
facilities.</font></div>

the Argentine government began to impose customs duties on the export of
hydrocarbons. Export tax rates were increased on crude oil 20%, on butane,
methane and LPG to 20% and gasoline and diesel fuel to 5%. In May 2004,
Resolution No. 337/04 of the Ministry of Economy and Production increased export
duties on crude oil to 25%. These export tax rates were increased again in 2004,
when the Ministry of Economy and Production issued Resolution No. 532/04,
establishing a progressive scheme of export duties for crude oil, with rates
ranging from 25% to 45%, depending on the quotation of the WTI reference price
at the time of the exportation. In addition, in May 2004, pursuant to Resolution
No. 645/04 of the Ministry of Economy and Production, an export duty on natural
gas and natural gas liquids was established at a rate of 20%. The export duty on
natural gas was increased again in July 2006, when the Ministry of Economy and
Production increased the rate to 45% and instructed the Customs General
Administration to apply the price fixed by the Framework Agreement between
Argentina and Bolivia (approximately U.S.$6/mmBtu in December 2007) as the base
price to which to apply the new tax rate, irrespective of the actual sales
price. In addition, on October 10, 2006, the Ministry of Economy and Production
imposed prevalent export duties on exports from the Tierra del Fuego province,
which were previously exempted from taxes. Moreover, in May 2007 the Ministry of
Economy and Production increased to 25% the export duty on butane, propane and
LPG. There can be no assurances as to future levels of export
taxes.</font></div>

Although the recitals and the first part of Section 1 of Decree No. 2,703/02
mention natural gas and LPG as covered by this regime, there are no express
references to natural gas or LPG in the rest of Section 1. However, taking into
account the rights granted by Decree No. 1,589/89, we apply this regime to the
export of crude oil, LPG and natural gas. It is worth noting that the recitals
of Decree No. 2,703/02 restate the interpretation maintained by the Attorney
General in the sense that Decree No. 1,589/89 has been repealed by Decree No.
530/91 and No. 1,606/01. This interpretation prompted the filing of the
above-mentioned declaratory judgment action. Moreover, since Decree No. 2,703/02
is effective as from January 1, 2003, and, in light of the Attorney General&#8217;s
opinion, it is unclear whether hydrocarbon exporters would be required to
repatriate the total amount of their 2002 export proceeds or whether the
existing hydrocarbons regulatory framework will prevail, we have expanded the
object of the declaratory judgment action before the federal court to request
that the judge expressly state that Decree No. 530/91 did not abrogate Decree
No. 1,589/89 and, thus, that the right of free disposal of export receivables
was effective between the issuance of Decree No. 1,606/01 and Decree 2,703/02.
On December 1, 2003, the National Administrative Court of Appeals decided that
the issuance of Decree No. 2,703/02, which allows companies in the oil and gas
sector to keep abroad up to 70% of the export proceeds, rendered the injunction
unnecessary. On December 15, 2003, we filed a motion for clarification asking
the court to clarify whether the exemption was available to oil and gas
companies during the period between the issuance of Decree No. 1,606/01 and the
issuance of Decree 2,703/02. On February 6, 2004, the Court of Appeals dismissed
our motion for clarification, indicating that the regulations included in Decree
2,703/02 were sufficiently clear, and confirmed the lifting of the injunction
that prohibited the Central Bank and the Ministry of Economy and Production from
interfering with our access to foreign exchange proceeds, as described above. On
February 19, 2004, we filed an extraordinary appeal before the Supreme Court
challenging the December 1, 2003 decision of the Court of Appeals and requesting
the restatement of the injunction against the Central Bank and the Ministry of
Economy and Production. The Federal Court of Appeals dismissed the extraordinary
appeal. Taking into account the fact that there is a new special system in place
allowing for the free disposal of up to 70% of the foreign currency proceeds
from the exports of crude oil and its derivatives, it was deemed advisable to
abandon the suit as a procedural strategy.</font></div>

were brought against us in the amount of U.S.$1.6 million, and the tribunal has
advised that the conduct of a bank that handled other of our export transactions
made in 2002 be investigated, which could give rise to the initiation of further
proceedings. Nevertheless, a judicial judgment recently issued by a First
Instance Court in Criminal Economic Matters in a similar administrative summary
proceeding against a different company for an alleged violation of the criminal

regarding export transactions made in 2002 resolved the matter in favor of that

Argentina&#8217;s leading energy company, operating a fully integrated oil and gas
chain with leading market positions across the domestic upstream and downstream
segments. Our upstream operations consist of the exploration, development and
production of crude oil, natural gas and liquefied petroleum gas. Our downstream
operations include the refining, marketing, transportation and distribution of
oil and a wide range of petroleum products, petroleum derivatives,
petrochemicals, liquid petroleum gas and bio-fuels. Additionally, we are active
in the gas separation and natural gas distribution sectors both directly and
through our investments in several affiliated companies. In 2007, we had
consolidated net sales of Ps.29,104 million (U.S.$9,239 million) and
consolidated net income of Ps.4,086 million (U.S.$1,297 million).</font></div>

our predecessors were state-owned companies with operations dating back to the
1920s. In November 1992, the Argentine government enacted the Privatization Law
(Law No. 24,145), which established the procedures for our privatization. In
accordance with the Privatization Law, in July 1993, we completed a worldwide
offering of 160 million Class D shares that had previously been owned by the
Argentine government. As a result of that offering and other transactions, the
Argentine government&#8217;s ownership interest in our capital stock was reduced from
100% to approximately 20% by the end of 1993.</font></div>

Energ&#237;a purchased 58,603,606 of our ADSs, representing 14.9% of our capital

operating income in 2007 decreased 3.3% compared with 2006 mainly as a result
of: our continuing decline in production, principally as a result of the
maturity of our fields; increased export taxes; increased depreciation of fixed
assets as a result of increased assets subject to depreciation (principally
exploration and production assets that entered into production) and also
considering the decline in our proved reserves and increasing domestic fuel
demand, which, as a result of regulatory requirements, obliged us to decrease
exports and import certain products (such as diesel) in order to satisfy
domestic demand at substantially lower prices. Domestic prices for diesel, for
example, in January 2008, were approximately U.S.$250/cubic meter lower, after
tax refunds, than international market prices, ensuring a loss on diesel imports

Global economic growth remained solid during the first half of 2007, but the

commodity prices and growing domestic demand. However, there are some signs that
the improved fundamentals may erode if certain regulatory policies are not

consumption in Argentina has increased significantly since 2003, driven in part
by price limitations that have kept Argentine energy prices substantially below
international prices. Continued growth in demand and a particularly harsh winter
in 2007 have recently led to fuel shortages and power outages, prompting the
Argentine government to take additional measures to assure domestic supply. At
the same time, growth in the production of certain hydrocarbon products has
slowed, and in the case of crude oil production has recently declined, due to
Argentina&#8217;s maturing oil and gas fields. As a result of this increasing demand
and actions taken by the Argentine regulatory authorities to prioritize domestic
supply, exported volumes of hydrocarbon products, especially natural gas,
declined steadily over this period. At the same time, Argentina has increased
hydrocarbon imports.</font></div>

Argentine government&#8217;s current policy is not to allow any exports of natural gas

the Argentine government requires companies intending to export crude oil,
diesel and LPG to obtain prior authorization from the Secretariat of Energy by
demonstrating that local demand for those products has been satisfied. Since
2005, because domestic diesel production has generally not been sufficient to
satisfy Argentine consumption needs, exports of diesel have been substantially

economic crisis in 2002, in order to prioritize domestic demand, the Argentine
government has imposed export taxes on certain hydrocarbon products. These taxes
have increased substantially in the following years as international prices have
surged. For a description of these taxes, see &#8220;Item 4. Information on the
Company&#8212;Regulatory Framework and Relationship with the Argentine
Government&#8212;Taxation.&#8221;&#160;&#160;These export taxes have significantly affected
the profitability of hydrocarbon exportation. They have also contributed to a
shift away from exports and towards domestic sales, as described in &#8220;&#8212;Declining
export volumes,&#8221; and reduced the export parity prices.</font></div>

November 16, 2007, the Ministry of Economy and Production published Resolution
394/07, modifying the duties on exports of crude oil and other crude oil
derivative products. The new regime provides that when the WTI international
price exceeds the reference price, which is fixed at U.S.$60.9/barrel, the
producer shall be allowed to collect U.S.$42/barrel, with the remainder being
withheld by the Argentine government as an export tax. If the WTI international
price is under the reference price but over U.S.$45/barrel, a 45% withholding
rate will apply. If such price is under U.S.$45/barrel, the applicable export
tax is to be determined within a term of 90 business days. The withholding rate
determined as indicated above also currently applies to diesel, gasoline and
other crude derivative products. In addition, the calculation procedure
described above also applies to other petroleum products and lubricants based
upon different withholding rates, reference prices and prices allowed to
producers. See &#8220;Item 4. Information on the Company&#8212;Regulatory Framework and

534/06 of the Ministry of Economy and Production increased the tax on natural

oil and gas fields are mature and, as a result, our reserves and production are
declining as reserves are depleted. Because we mainly have concessions for
mature oil and gas fields that are undergoing natural production declines, it is
difficult to replace our proved reserves from other categories of reserves. In
2007, our estimated proved oil reserves and oil production declined by 8.38% and
4.76%, respectively, over the preceding year, while our estimated proved gas
reserves and gas production declined by 7.65% and 2.46%, respectively, over the
same period. As a result, in an effort to maintain our high refinery utilization
rates and because of regulatory requirements to supply certain hydrocarbon
products to the domestic market, we purchased crude oil and natural gas from
third parties. In 2007 and 2006, our crude production, substantially all of
which was destined to our refineries, represented approximately 83% and 90%,
respectively, of the total crude oil processed by our refineries, and in 2007
and 2006, our natural gas production represented approximately 99% and 93%,

offshore drilling projects, as well as onshore fields through extended reach
wells to find gas. We have budgeted approximately U.S.$2 billion in total
capital expenditures for 2008, a significant portion of which will be dedicated
to our exploration and production activities. While our oil and gas reserves
have recently declined, we increased our investment in recovery technology and
exploration in 2007 and, based on our current expectations of increased prices,
expect to continue to do so in the future, with the goal of improving our
recovery factors. Many of our fields have characteristics similar to mature
fields in other regions (including the United States) that have achieved
substantially higher reserve recovery factors through the application of new
technologies similar to those we are currently studying. We cannot assure you,
however, that we will be able to improve our recovery factors. In addition, the
financial viability of these investments and reserve recovery efforts generally
will depend on the prevailing economic and regulatory conditions in

Accordingly, monetary assets and liabilities are re-measured at the balance
sheet date (current) exchange rate. Amounts carried at prices in past
transactions are re-measured at the exchange rates in effect when the
transactions occurred. Revenues and expenses are re-measured on a monthly basis
at the average rates of exchange in effect during the period, except for

impaired if the discounted cash flows, considered at business segment level,
were less than its carrying value. With respect to assets that were held pending
sale or disposal, our policy was to record these assets on an individual basis
at amounts that did not exceed net realizable value.</font></div>

GAAP, for proved oil and gas properties, we perform the impairment review on an
individual field basis. Other long-lived assets are aggregated, so that the
individual cash flows produced by each group of assets may be separately
analyzed. Each asset is tested following the guidelines of SFAS No. 144,
&#8220;Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets,&#8221; by comparing the net book
value of such an asset with the expected cash flow. Impairment losses are
measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the
fair value of the assets. When fair values are not available, we estimate fair
value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate
with the risks associated with the recovery of the assets. The accumulated
adjustments under U.S. GAAP of the impairment provisions as of December 31,
2007, 2006 and 2005 were Ps.554 million, Ps.491 million and Ps.611 million,
respectively, mainly corresponding to our Exploration and Production segment.
Impairment charges under U.S. GAAP amounted to Ps.111&#160;&#160;million, Ps.80
million and Ps.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005,
respectively. In 2007, the impairment recorded was mainly the result of a
decrease in oil and gas reserves affecting certain long-lived assets of our
Exploration and Production business segment. In 2006, the impairment recorded
was mainly the result of the downward revision in reserves made by us in
December 2006, as well as to certain non-strategic Exploration and Production
areas that were available for sale at that time, and accordingly were valued at
fair value less cost to sell. The impairment recorded in 2005 was mainly the
result of the downward revision in reserves made by us in December 2005. See
&#8220;Item 4. Information on the Company&#8212;Exploration and Production.&#8221; The impairment
reversal of Ps.69 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 and impairment

each layer being discounted using the discount rate as of the date that the

rates is not permitted. Each cash flow layer is added to the carrying amount of

46R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (&#8220;FIN 46R&#8221;), clarifies the
application of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 to certain entities in which
equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial
interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its
activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties.
The interpretations explain how to identify variable interest entities and how
an enterprise assesses its interests in a variable interest entity to decide
whether to consolidate that entity. These interpretations require existing
unconsolidated variable interest entities to be consolidated by their primary
beneficiaries if the entities do not effectively disperse risks among parties
involved. Under Argentine GAAP, consolidation is based on the control of
corporate decisions through shareholding (Note 1 to the Audited Consolidated

Holdings has non-contributory defined-benefit pension plans and postretirement
and postemployment benefits. On December 31, 2006, under U.S. GAAP the Company
adopted SFAS No. 158, &#8220;Employers&#8217; Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and
Other Postretirement Plans&#8212;an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and
132 (R).&#8221; Under provisions of SFAS No. 158, the Company fully recognized the
underfunded status of defined-benefit pension and postretirement plans as a
liability in the financial statements, reducing the Company&#8217;s shareholders&#8217;
equity through the accumulated OCI account. Unrecognized gains and losses are
recognized in the income statement during the expected average remaining working
lives of the employees participating in the plans and the life expectancy of
retired employees. Under Argentine GAAP, the benefits related to the plans were
valued at net present value and accrued based on the years of active service of
employees. The net liability for defined-benefits plans is the amount resulting
from the sum of: the present value of the obligations, net of the fair value of
the plan assets and net of the unrecognized actuarial losses generated since
December 31, 2003. These unrecognized actuarial losses and gains are recognized
in the statement of income during the expected average remaining working lives
of the employees participating in the plans and the life expectancy of retired
employees. Unrecognized actuarial losses are not considered in the amount of the
net liability. For a more detailed discussion of the most significant

statutory corporate income tax rate in Argentina was 35% during each of the
periods presented in this annual report. Our effective tax rates for the periods
discussed in this annual report exceed the Argentine corporate income tax rate
mainly due to the non-deductibility of the amortization of the effect of
inflation indexation on fixed assets, offset in part by income on
non-consolidated long-term investments (which is included in our consolidated
financial statements net of corporate income tax as payable by investees) and
tax-free income from the sale of hydrocarbons produced in Tierra del Fuego. See
Note 3(k) to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements.</font></div>

in 2007 were Ps.29,104 million, representing a 13.5% increase compared to
Ps.25,635 million in 2006. This increase was primarily attributable to greater
sales volumes of diesel, gasoline, fuel oil and petrochemicals in the domestic
market (which increased 7.7%, 19.8%, 98.7% and 24.4%, respectively), as well as
to significant increases in average domestic diesel, gasoline and fuel oil
prices (which increased 23.0%, 10.3% and 2.3%, respectively). As a result, our
domestic sales increased 21.9% to Ps.20,704 million in 2007 from Ps.16,986
million in 2006. In addition, diesel and fuel oil sold under the Energy
Substitution Program also contributed to the increase in sales. Export sales
declined by 2.9% to Ps.8,400 million in 2007 from Ps.8,649 million in 2006,
driven by declines in the exported volumes of natural gas, gasoline and crude
oil (which decreased 56.1%, 24.9% and 51.4%, respectively), partially offset by
an increase in international gasoline prices. Our export sales in both periods
were made mainly to the United States, Brazil and Chile.</font></div>

for 2006 were Ps.25,635 million, representing an 11.9% increase from Ps.22,901
million in 2005. This increase was primarily attributable to the greater volume
of domestic sales of diesel (which increased 11.5%) and gasoline products (which
increased 21%), slight increases in the average domestic prices of these
products, as well as a 16% increase in the average domestic price of natural gas
attributable to the significantly increased portion of sales to industrial
segments of the Argentine market, which more than offset a 5% decrease in the
domestic volume of natural gas sold. As a result, domestic market sales
increased 19.1% to Ps.16,986 million in 2006 from Ps.14,257 million in 2005.
Exports were Ps.8,649 million in 2006 compared to Ps.8,644 million in

in the volume of crude oil purchased from third parties, driven by our efforts
to maintain our high refinery utilization rates notwithstanding our declining
production, as well as to an increase in the volume of other products purchased
from third parties. In addition, depreciation of fixed assets increased 10.9%,
mainly as a result of increased asset values attributable to (i) higher
capitalized well abandonment obligations at the end of 2006, according to the
new estimates performed as of that time based on new information concerning
future costs associated with those activities, which began to be depreciated in
2007 based on the unit of production method and (ii) increased assets
(principally related to our Exploration and Production business segment) subject
to depreciation in 2007. Salaries and social security taxes, maintenance costs,
contract services and certain other production costs also increased, driven
mainly by inflation and the renegotiation of certain labor and service
contracts. Our contractual commitments contributed Ps.77 million to the increase
in cost of sales, </font></div>

prices that set the internal price of transfer between business segments prior
to the implementation of a new regime for withholding rates on exports in
November 2007, which more than offset the 6% decrease in the volume of crude oil
sales that resulted mainly from a 5% decrease in our production attributable to
the increasing maturity of our fields. Additionally, in 2007, the average price
of natural gas sold in the domestic market increased 9.6% from 2006, due mainly
to increases in the price of natural gas sold to industrial customers and
thermal power plants, which more than offset the significant increase in the
portion of gas sold to the residential segment of the market, the prices for
which are significantly lower than those for other segments of the market, and
the decline in exports of natural gas attributable to lower export volumes
(which decreased 56.1% from 2006). Sales of gas by-products and other products

9.5% due to significant increases in contract works and services, driven mainly
by the renegotiation of certain service contracts in line with industry-wide
cost increases in such service contracts in Argentina, as well as by higher
labor costs resulting from renegotiations of labor contracts with petroleum
workers&#8217; unions based on higher inflation and increasing oil prices.
Additionally, we recorded a Ps.353 million, or 10.8%, increase in depreciation

2.3% to 1,784 million cubic feet per day from 1,827 million cubic feet per day

and marketing net sales in 2007 were Ps.24,278 million, 16.7% higher than the
Ps.20,801 million net sales recorded in 2006. This increase was mainly
attributable to increases in the volumes and average prices of diesel and
gasoline sold in the domestic market, the segment&#8217;s two principal products.
Domestic diesel volumes and average prices increased by 7.7% and 23.0%,
respectively, while domestic gasoline volumes and average prices increased by
19.8% and 10.3%, respectively. Higher domestic sales were offset by lower export
sales of many of our products, especially gasoline, as the Argentine
government&#8217;s requirement that we fulfill domestic demand resulted in a 24.9%
decrease in our exported volume of gasoline, the segment&#8217;s principal export
product. Gasoline prices were on average significantly higher in international
markets than in Argentina during 2007.</font></div>

increased domestic sales described above were also partially offset by a 15.1%
increase in refining costs (excluding crude oil costs), mainly due to higher
contract service costs as a result of the renegotiation of certain service
contracts and inflation adjustments, and the implementation in November 2007 of

1996, we have entered into three forward oil sale agreements, which we refer to
as the FOS transactions in this annual report. These agreements were entered
into in order to obtain cash to fund operations in advance of the actual sale
and delivery of oil. Under these transactions, we were advanced U.S.$381 million
in 1996, U.S.$300 million in 1998 and U.S.$383 million in 2001, against future
deliveries of oil. Our obligations under the FOS transactions are recorded as a
liability in the consolidated balance sheet as customer advances and will be
reduced and moved to income as the physical deliveries are made over the term of
the contracts. As of December 31, 2007, the amount of FOS customer advances
recorded on our consolidated balance sheet was Ps.9 million (approximately
U.S.$3 million). The obligations to deliver crude oil under the agreements
entered into in 1996 have been satisfied in their entirety, with the last
delivery having taken place in October 2003. The obligations to deliver crude
oil under the agreement entered into in 2001 were cancelled on September 30,
2005. The obligations to deliver crude oil under the 1998 agreement will
continue through May 2008.</font></div>

structure of the remaining FOS transaction is similar to those already
cancelled. We enter into a forward oil sale agreement that calls for the future
delivery of oil for the life of the contract. We were paid in advance for the
future delivery of oil. The fixed price of the oil to be delivered was
calculated using various factors, including the expected future price and
quality of the crude oil being delivered. The counterparty to the oil supply
agreement is a special purpose entity incorporated in the Cayman Islands, which
finances itself as described below. The oil to be delivered under the supply
agreement is subsequently sold in the open market.</font></div>

exposed to any change in the price of the crude oil we will deliver in the
future under the FOS transaction. Our exposure derives from the crude oil swap
agreement under which we pay a fixed price with respect to the nominal quantity
of barrels of the crude oil sold, and receive the variable market price of such
barrels of crude oil. See &#8220;Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures

imposed a fine on us of Ps.109 million, stated Argentine pesos as of that date,
based on the interpretation that we had purportedly abused our dominant position
in the bulk LPG market due to the existence of different prices between the
exports of LPG and the sales to the domestic market from 1993 through 1997. In
July 2002, the Argentine Supreme Court confirmed the fine, and we made the
claimed payment. Additionally, Resolution No. 189/99 provided for the
commencement of an investigation in order to prove whether the penalized
behavior continued from October 1997 to March 1999. On December 19, 2003, the
CNDC completed its investigation and charged us with abuse of dominant market
position during this period. On January 20, 2004, we answered the notification

existence of defects in the imputation procedure (absence of majority in the

Prospects&#8212;Liquidity and Capital Resources&#8212;Transactions with unconsolidated
variable interest entities&#8221;) should have been subject to an income tax
withholding. On March 8, 2004, the AFIP formally communicated to us the claim
for approximately Ps.45 million plus interest and fines. Additionally, on June
24, 2004, we received a new formal claim from the AFIP, asserting that the
services related to these contracts should have been taxed with the Value Added
Tax. Management believes, based upon the opinion of its external counsel, that
the claim is without merit since those advances were received under crude oil
export commitments. Consequently, during 2004, we presented our defense to the
AFIP, rejecting the claims and arguing our position. However, on December 28,
2004, we received formal communication of a resolution from the AFIP confirming
its original position in both claims. We have appealed such resolution in the
National Fiscal Court. In 2006, we conditionally paid the amounts corresponding
to periods that followed those included in the claim by the AFIP and filed
reimbursement summary proceedings so as to avoid facing interest payments or a
fine.<font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-WEIGHT: bold">&#160;</font>On March 18,

rate of the Argentine peso that EDF asserts to have occurred prior to December
31, 2001. Our position is that the change in the exchange rate did not occur
prior to January 2002, and, therefore, EDF is not entitled to the purchase price
adjustment. We have filed a counterclaim against EDF in the amount of U.S.$13.85
million as a purchase price adjustment. We believe that EDF&#8217;s claim is without
merit. The arbitral award dated October 22, 2007 accepted the claim against us
awarding damages against us in the amount of U.S.$40 million and also accepted
our counterclaim against EDF in the amount of U.S.$11.1 million. Consequently,
the amount payable by us should the award become final is U.S.$28.9 million plus

Currency.&#8221; On December 1, 2003, the National Administrative Court of Appeals
decided that the issuance of Decree No. 2,703 in 2002, which allows companies in
the oil and gas sector to keep abroad up to 70% of the export proceeds, rendered
the injunction unnecessary. Nevertheless, the Court of Appeals&#8217; decision was
silent with respect to the availability of the exemption to convert proceeds
from export operations carried out by oil and gas companies into domestic
currency prior to the issuance of Decree 2,703. On December 15, 2003, we filed a
motion for clarification asking the court to clarify whether the exemption was
available to oil and gas companies during the period between the issuance of
Decree No. 1,606/01 and the issuance of Decree No. 2,703/02. On February 6,
2004, the Court of Appeals dismissed our motion for clarification, indicating
that the regulations included in Decree No. 2,703/02 were sufficiently clear,
and confirmed the lifting of the injunction that prohibited the Central Bank and
the Ministry of Economy from interfering with our access to foreign exchange
proceeds, as described above. On February 19, 2004, we filed an extraordinary
appeal before the Supreme Court against the dismissal of the motion for
clarification by the Court of Appeals and requested the restatement of the
injunction against the Central Bank and the Ministry of Economy. The Federal
Court of Appeals dismissed the extraordinary appeal. Taking into account the
fact that there is a new special system in place allowing for the free disposal
of up to 70% of the foreign currency proceeds from the exports of crude oil and
its derivatives, it was deemed advisable to abandon the suit as a procedural
strategy. If the Central Bank were to reassert and prevail before the courts in
the argument that the exemption allowing oil and gas companies to keep up to 70%
of export proceeds abroad during the period between the issuance of Decree No.
1,606/01 and the issuance of Decree No. 2,703/02 was not available, we could be
subject to material penalties.</font></div>

12, 2007, we were notified of the initiation of an administrative summary

export transactions made in 2002 (during the period between the issuance of
Decree No. 1,606/01 and the issuance of Decree No. 2,703/02). In this
administrative summary proceeding, charges were brought against us in the amount
of U.S.$1.6 million, and it has been advised that the conduct of a bank that
handled other of our export transactions made in 2002 be investigated, which
could give rise to the initiation of further proceedings. Nevertheless, a final
and unchallenged judicial judgment recently issued by a First Instance Court in
Criminal Economic Matters in a similar administrative summary proceeding against
a different company for alleged violation of the criminal exchange law (lack of
repatriation of 70% of foreign currency proceeds) regarding export transactions
made in 2002 resolved the matter in favor of that company based on well-founded
arguments that were not challenged by the prosecutor. In addition, the Argentine
Attorney General recently issued an opinion in similar proceedings against
another oil company stating that there were no criminal law violations in that
case due to the lack of willful misconduct and the existence of laws that
created uncertainty as to the extent of certain obligations.</font></div>

natural gas purchase/sale contracts and (ii) gas imports from Bolivia, in
particular (a) expired contracts signed by YPF, when it was state-owned, and
YPFB (the Bolivian state-owned oil company), under which YPF allegedly sold
Bolivian gas in Argentina at prices below the purchase price; and (b) the

We have requested that the claim be rejected because the defects of the

the Argentine government, due to its obligation to indemnify us against any

We have been sued in the following environmental lawsuits that have been filed
by residents living near Dock Sud, province of Buenos Aires: (i) &#8220;Mendoza,
Beatriz against National State et al.&#8221; is a lawsuit pending before the Supreme
Court of Argentina, in which the Argentine government, the province of Buenos
Aires, the City of Buenos Aires, 14 municipalities and 44 companies (including
us) are being sued. The plaintiffs have requested unspecified compensation for
collective environmental damage of Matanza and Riachuelo river basins and for
physical and property damage, which they claim to have suffered. The National
Supreme Court declared itself legally competent to settle only the conflict
related to the collective environmental damages, including prevention of future
pollution, remediation of environmental damages already caused and monetary
compensation for irreparable environmental damages; and has requested that the
defendants submit specific reports. In particular, it has requested that the
Argentine government, the province of Buenos Aires, the City of Buenos Aires and
Cofema submit a plan with environmental objectives. We have answered the
complaint and requested the impleading of the Argentine government, based on its
obligation to indemnify us against any liability and hold us harmless for events
and claims previous to January 1, 1991, according to Law No. 24,145 and Decree
No. 546/1993; (ii) &#8220;F&#233;lix, V&#237;ctor et al. against Shell C.A.P.S.A. et al. for
compensation&#8221; is a suit in which the province of Buenos Aires and the
Municipality of Avellaneda are being sued, as are companies domiciled at Dock
Sud, including us. The plaintiffs are requesting environmental remediation of
Dock Sud, which they estimate at Ps.600 million, and physical and property
damages. However, we have been informed that plaintiffs have left without effect
their claim against us; (iii) &#8220;Cicero, Mar&#237;a Cristina against Antivari S.A.C.I.
et al. for damages&#8221; in which the plaintiffs, who are residents of Villa
Inflamable, Dock Sud, also demand the environmental remediation of Dock Sud and
Ps.33 million in compensation for physical and property damages against many
companies that have operations there, including us. We answered the complaint by
requesting its rejection and asked the citation of the Argentine government, due
to its obligation to indemnify us against any liability and hold us harmless for
events and claims previous to January 1, 1991, according to Law No. 24,145 and

addition, citizens claiming to be residents living near Quilmes, in the province
of Buenos Aires, have filed a lawsuit in which they have requested the
remediation of environmental damages and the payment of Ps.46 million as
compensation for alleged personal damages. The plaintiffs base their claim
mainly on a fuel leak that occurred in 1988 in a poliduct running from La Plata
to Dock Sud that was operated by Yacimientos Petrol&#237;feros Fiscales S.A. The
leaked fuel became perceptible in November 2002, resulting in remediation that
is now being performed by us in the affected area, supervised by the
environmental authority of the province of Buenos Aires. We have requested an
extension of the time to answer the complaint to allow us time to evaluate
certain documents submitted to the court by the plaintiffs. We have also
notified the Argentine government that we will implead it at the time we answer
the complaint in order to request that it indemnify us against any liability and
hold us harmless in connection with this lawsuit, as provided by Law. No.

allegations, amounting to Ps.4 million. In these cases, we believe that the
Argentine government will contest its obligation to indemnify and hold us
harmless by claiming that the alleged damages were not caused by the 1988
leak.</font></div>

during 2002 and part of 2003. The alleged conduct consisted of selling bulk LPG
in the domestic market at prices higher than the export price, thereby
restricting the availability of bulk LPG in the domestic market. On December 15,
2003, the CNDC decided to forward the complaint to us, and requested
explanations under Art. 29 of the Antitrust Act. On January 21, 2004, we
submitted explanations in accordance with Art. 29 of the Antitrust Act,
contending that no antitrust violations had been committed. At this point, the
CNDC may accept our explanations or begin a criminal investigation. We contend
that we did not restrict LPG supply in the domestic market during the relevant
period, that during this period all domestic demand for LPG could have been
supplied by our competitors and that therefore our market share could not be
deemed a dominant position. As of the date of this registration statement, CNDC
has not taken any further action.</font></div>

thus increasing the amounts of the royalties to be paid by us. The calculation
of hydrocarbon royalties, in accordance with Section 75 (12) of the Argentine

31, 2004, the province of Neuqu&#233;n filed with the Federal Court of the province
of Neuqu&#233;n (the &#8220;Federal Court&#8221;) a claim against Atalaya Energy and 19 oil and
gas companies, including us, claiming compliance with Section 6 Law No. 25,561
for the calculation of royalties regarding hydrocarbons produced within the
province of Neuqu&#233;n. Section 6 Law No. 25,561 provides that in no event will
export withholdings reduce the wellhead prices for the calculation and payment
of hydrocarbon royalties. According to the province of Neuqu&#233;n&#8217;s reading of
Section 6 Law No. 25,561, the oil and gas companies producing hydrocarbons in
the province of Neuqu&#233;n should not make any deduction based on export
withholdings for the calculation of royalties corresponding to hydrocarbons sold
in the domestic market. The Federal Court issued an interim measure ordering the
oil and gas companies to calculate and pay royalties on the basis of
international prices. We filed an appeal against such interim measure. On
October 5, 2005, the Federal Court granted our appeal. Additionally, the Federal
Court clarified that Section 6 Law No. 25,561 shall be applied only to the
calculation of royalties regarding exported hydrocarbons. The province of
Neuqu&#233;n appealed this decision to the National Court of Appeals, which declared
that it lacked jurisdiction and referred the case to the Argentine Supreme
Court. In 2006, the Argentine Supreme Court also declared that it lacked
jurisdiction, and returned the case file to the Federal Court. We also requested
the Argentine Supreme Court to order the Federal Court to restrain from
continuing proceedings. The Argentine Supreme Court denied such request and we
filed a writ requesting the reversal of such decision. On May 14, 2007, the
judge issued an opinion declaring that the Federal Court lacked jurisdiction to
hear our royalties dispute case and the case was transferred to the
administrative courts of the province of Neuqu&#233;n. On May 17, 2007, we presented
our appeal on the basis that the judge failed to consider recent jurisprudential
records of the Federal Court (the case of the Neuqu&#233;n Decrees) that acknowledged
that royalties disputes posed a valid federal question. On June 29, 2007, the
judge rejected our motion in limine but subsequently accepted our motion of
appeal. We have filed a request with the Federal Court requesting jurisdiction
over the royalties litigation, in light of the above-mentioned recent
jurisprudence.</font></div>

material shortfalls in our investments pursuant to the Extension Agreement for
the Loma de la Lata &#8211; Sierra Barrosa Concession, executed on December 5, 2000

explain the reasons for the detected underinvestment, subject to immediate
forfeiture of the concession extension&#8221;; (ii) &#8220;this serious incident makes it
necessary to delay any negotiations with this company for the purpose of any
concession extensions&#8221;; (iii) the proceedings will be remitted to the Provincial
Legislature so that the legislators may weigh this &#8220;incident&#8221; at the time of

S.A. (&#8220;ENDESA&#8221;) for arbitration to resolve a dispute relating to an alleged
breach of a contractual clause in an export contract signed in June 2000. The
clause relates to increased natural gas deliveries and ENDESA has requested
payment of a contractual penalty resulting from our alleged failure to deliver
the required amounts. The contract term is 15 years. ENDESA&#8217;s claim amounted to
U.S.$353.8 million, while asserting that there had been willful misconduct on
our part. Thereafter, the parties entered into (i) an agreement for the
amendment of the gas supply agreement in order to adapt it to the export
restrictions imposed by the Argentine government (the &#8220;Amendment&#8221;) and (ii) an
agreement for the termination of the arbitration (the &#8220;Termination Agreement&#8221;),

were notified of the Secretariat of Energy&#8217;s approval. Thereafter, the parties
informed the tribunal of the termination of the arbitration by mutual agreement.
We have paid ENDESA U.S.$8 million pursuant to the Termination Agreement and

group, including Tierra and Occidental, requesting that the group enter into an
agreement to conduct a cooperative assessment of natural resources damages in
the Passaic River and Newark Bay. The PRRP group has responded through its
common counsel to request that discussions relating to such an agreement be
postponed until 2008, due in part to the pending FFS proposal by EPA. Tierra
plans to continue to participate in the PRRP group with regard to this matter.
In January 2008, the NOAA sent a letter to us, YPF Holdings, CLH Holdings Inc.
and other entities designating each as a potentially responsible party
(&#8220;PRP&#8221;).</font></div>

other chromium manufacturers (the &#8220;Respondents&#8221;) directing them to arrange for
the cleanup of chromite ore residue at three sites in Jersey City and for the
conduct of a study by paying the DEP a total of U.S.$19.55 million. Second, the
DEP filed a lawsuit against Occidental and two other entities in state court in
Hudson County seeking, among other things, cleanup of various sites where
chromite ore residue is allegedly located, recovery of past costs incurred by
the state at such sites (including in excess of U.S.$2.3 million dollars
allegedly spent for investigations and studies) and, with respect to certain
costs at 18 sites, treble damages. The DEP claims that the defendants are
jointly and severally liable, without regard to fault, for much of the damages
alleged. The parties have engaged in discussions (including mediation) regarding
possible settlement; however, there is no assurance that these discussions will
be successful.</font></div>

the OEPA approves additional projects for the site of the former Painesville

court decided that the 12-year cut-off period did not apply and entered judgment

2008. Maxus has appealed this decision to the Texas Supreme Court. If affirmed,
this decision will require Maxus to accept responsibility for various matters
for which it has refused to indemnify Occidental since 1998, which could result

that permits trading in both debt and equity securities and is accessed by
brokers directly from workstations located in their offices. Currently, all
transactions relating to listed negotiable obligations and listed government
securities can be effectuated through SINAC. In order to control price
volatility, MERVAL imposes a 15-minute suspension on trading when the price of a
security registers a variation in price between 10% and 15% and between 15% and
20%. Any additional 5% variation in the price of a security will result in an
additional 10-minute successive suspension period.</font></div>

regulation of the market for Argentine securities and investors&#8217; activities in
such markets and enforcement of them has been extremely limited. Because of the
limited exposure and regulation in these markets, there may be less publicly
available information about Argentine companies than is regularly published by
or about companies in the United States and certain other countries. However,
the CNV has taken significant steps to strengthen disclosure and regulatory
standards for the Argentine securities market, including the issuance of
regulations prohibiting insider trading and requiring insiders to report on
their ownership of securities, with associated penalties for
noncompliance.</font></div>

Law No. 25,246 (as amended by Law No. 26,087 and Law 26,119) categorizes money
laundering as a crime under the Argentine Criminal Code and created the <font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-STYLE: italic">Unidad de Informaci&#243;n
Financiera</font> (&#8220;UIF&#8221;), an agency of the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights
of Argentina responsible for investigating questionable transactions. The
Argentine Criminal Code defines money laundering as the exchange, transfer,
management, sale or any other use of money or other assets obtained through a
crime, by a person who did not take part in such crime, with the possible result
that such original assets (or new asset resulting from such original asset) have
the appearance of having been obtained through legitimate sources, provided that
the aggregate value of the assets exceeded Ps.50,000, whether such amount
results from one or more connected transactions.</font></div>

laundering legal framework assigns control and information reporting duties to
certain private sector entities, including banks, broker-dealers, trading

Sospechosas en la &#211;rbita del Sistema Financiero y Cambiario</font>) approved by
Resolution No. 2/2002 of the UIF (as amended), such entities have an obligation
to notify the UIF of transactions falling into the following general categories:
(a) investments in securities in amounts significantly exceeding the amounts
normally invested by a particular investor, taking the business of the investor
into account; (b) deposits or back-to-back loans in jurisdictions known as tax
havens; (c) requests for asset management services where the origin of funds is
not certain, is unclear or does not relate to the business of the investor; (d)
unusual transfers of large amounts of securities or interests; (e) unusual and
frequent use of special investment accounts; and (f) frequent purchases and
sales of securities during the same day for the same amount and volume, when
such transactions seem unusual and inadequate considering the business of the
investor.</font></div>

November 1992, the Privatization Law became effective. Pursuant to the
Privatization Law, in July 1993, we completed a worldwide offering of 160
million Class D shares, representing approximately 45% of our outstanding
capital stock, which had been owned by the Argentine government. Concurrently
with the completion of such offering, the Argentine government transferred
approximately 40 million Class B shares to the Argentine provinces, which
represented approximately 11% of our outstanding capital stock, and made an
offer to holders of pension bonds and certain other claims to exchange such
bonds and other claims for approximately 46.1 million Class B shares,
representing approximately 13% of our outstanding capital stock. As a result of
these transactions, the Argentine government&#8217;s ownership percentage of our
capital stock was reduced from 100% to approximately 30%, including shares that
had been set aside to be offered to our employees upon establishment of the
terms and conditions by the Argentine government in accordance with Argentine
law. The shares set aside to be offered to employees represented 10% of our

1997, the Class C shares set aside for the benefit of our employees in
conjunction with the privatization, excluding approximately 1.5 million Class C
shares set aside as a reserve against potential claims, were sold through a
global public offering, increasing the percentage of our outstanding shares of
capital stock held by the public to 75%. Proceeds from the transactions were
used to cancel debt related to the employee plan, with the remainder distributed
to participants in the plan. Additionally, Resolution 1,023/06 of the Ministry
of Economy and Production, dated December 21, 2006, effected the transfer to the
employees covered by the employee share ownership plan, or PPP, of 1,117,717
Class C shares, corresponding to the Class C shares set aside as a reserve
against potential claims, and reserving 357,987 Class C shares until a decision
was reached in a pending lawsuit. Subsequently, with a final decision having
been reached in the lawsuit, and consistent with the mechanism of conversion of
Class C shares into Class D shares established by Decree 628/1997 and its
accompanying rules, as of December 28, 2007, 1,381,999 Class C shares had been

A shares held by the Argentine government became eligible for sale in April 1995

Additionally, on April 30, 1999, Repsol YPF announced a tender offer to purchase
all outstanding Class A, B, C and D shares at a price of U.S.$44.78 per share
(the &#8220;Offer&#8221;). Pursuant to the Offer, in June, 1999, Repsol YPF acquired an
additional 82.47% of our outstanding capital stock. On November 4, 1999, Repsol
YPF acquired an additional 0.35%. On June 7, 2000, Repsol YPF announced a tender
offer to exchange newly issued Repsol YPF&#8217;s shares for 2.16% of our Class B, C

after the merger with Astra, as of December 31, 2007, Repsol YPF owns

paid on Class D shares or ADSs, other than certain pro rata distributions of
ordinary shares, will be treated as a dividend to the extent paid out of current
or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax
principles). Because the Company does not maintain calculations of earnings and
profits under U.S. federal income tax principles, it is expected that
distributions will generally be reported to U.S. Holders as dividends. Subject
to applicable limitations (including a minimum holding period requirement) and
the discussion above regarding concerns expressed by the U.S. Treasury, certain
dividends paid by qualified foreign corporations to certain non-corporate U.S.
Holders in taxable years beginning before January 1, 2011, are taxable at a
maximum rate of 15%. A foreign corporation is treated as a qualified foreign
corporation with respect to dividends paid on stock that is readily tradable on
an established securities market in the United States, such as the New York
Stock Exchange where our ADSs are traded. You should consult your own tax
advisers to determine whether the favorable rate may apply to dividends you
receive and whether you are subject to any special rules that limit your ability
to be taxed at this favorable rate. The amount of a dividend will include any
amounts withheld by us in respect of Argentine taxes. The amount of the dividend
will be treated as foreign-source dividend income to you and will not be
eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to U.S.
corporations under the Code.</font></div>

converted into U.S. dollars on the date of receipt, you generally should not be

company&#8221; (&#8220;PFIC&#8221;) for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the taxable year of
2008, and does not expect to be considered one in the foreseeable future.
However, since PFIC status depends upon the composition of a company&#8217;s income
and assets and the market value of its assets (including, among other things,
less than 25 percent owned equity investments) from time to time, there can be
no assurance that the Company will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable
year. If the Company were treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which
you held a Class D share or ADS, certain adverse consequences could apply to
you.</font></div>

Company is treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which you held a Class
D share or ADS, any gain you recognize on a sale or other disposition of the
Class D share or ADS would be allocated ratably over your holding period for the
Class D share or ADS. The amounts allocated to the taxable year of the
disposition and to any year before the Company became a PFIC would be taxed as
ordinary income. The amount allocated to each other taxable year would be
subject to tax at the highest rate in effect for individuals or corporations, as
appropriate, and an interest charge would be imposed on the amount allocated to
such taxable year. Further, any distribution in respect of ADSs or ordinary
shares in excess of 125 percent of the average of the annual distributions on
ADSs or ordinary shares received by you during the preceding three years or your
holding period, whichever is shorter, would be subject to taxation in the manner
just described for gains. Certain elections may be available to you (including a
mark to market election) that may mitigate the adverse consequences resulting
from PFIC status.</font></div>

was a fixed one-to-one rate of exchange between the Argentine peso and the U.S.

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are

      Company follows the &#8220;successful effort&#8221; method of accounting for its oil
      and gas exploration and production operations. Accordingly, exploratory
      costs, excluding the costs of exploratory wells, have been charged to
      expense as incurred. Costs of drilling exploratory wells, including
      stratigraphic test wells, have been capitalized pending determination as
      to whether the wells have found proved reserves that justify commercial
      development. If such reserves were not found, the mentioned costs are
      charged to expense. Occasionally, an exploratory well may be determined to
      have found oil and gas reserves, but classification of those reserves as
      proved cannot be made when drilling is completed. In those cases, the cost
      of drilling the exploratory well shall continue to be capitalized if the
      well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion
      as a producing well and the enterprise is making sufficient progress
      assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the
      project. If any of the mentioned conditions is not met, cost of drilling
      exploratory wells is charged to expense. As of December 31, 2007, the
      Company has only one exploratory well capitalized for more than one year
      after the completion of the drilling. As of the date of the issuance of
      these financial statements, the Company has contracted external advisors
      in order to assess the feasibility of the project and the economic
      viability of the well. The capitalized cost of the project amounts to
      approximately 43. The Company expects to have the result of the above
      mentioned assessment in the first half of 2008. As of December 31, 2006
      and 2005, the Company had 34 and 65, respectively, of exploratory drilling
      costs that had been capitalized for a period greater than one
      year.</font></div>

25,561 on Public Emergency and Exchange System Reform, issued in January 2002,
established duty taxes for hydrocarbon exports for a five year-period. In
January 2007, Law No. 26,217 extended this export withholding system for an
additional five-year period and also established specifically that this regime
is also applicable to exports from Tierra del Fuego province, which were
previously exempted from such regime. As of December 31, 2006, outstanding
withholding rates were 20% for liquefied petroleum gas, 5% for gasoline, diesel
and other refined products and between 25% and 45% for crude oil based on West
Texas Intermediate Price (&#8220;WTI&#8221;). On July 25, 2006, Resolution No.&#160;534/2006
of the Ministry of Economy and Production entered in force, raising the natural
gas withholding rate from 20% to 45% and establishing the natural gas import
price from Bolivia as the basis for its determination. In March 2008, Resolution
No. 127/2008 of the Ministry of Economy and Production amended Resolution No.
534/2006, establishing the natural gas export withholding rate as 100% of the
highest price from any natural gas import contract to Argentina. YPF is
negotiating with its export clients the effect of the above mentioned increase
and the transfer of a significant part of these incremental costs to them.
Additionally, on November 16, 2007, the Ministry of Economy and Production
published Resolution No.&#160;394/2007, modifying the withholding regime on
exports of crude oil and other crude oil derivative products. The new regime
provides the reference prices and floor prices which in conjunction with the
West Texas Intermediate price (&#8220;WTI&#8221;), determine the export withholding rate for
each product. In case of crude oil, when the WTI exceeds the reference price,
which is fixed at US$ 60.9 per barrel, the producer is allowed to collect a
floor price of US$ 42 per barrel, depending on the quality of the crude oil
sold, with the remainder being withheld by the Argentine Government. If the WTI
is under the reference price but over US$ 45 per barrel, a 45% withholding rate
will apply. If such price is under US$ 45 per barrel, the Government will have
to determine the export rate within a term of 90 business days. The withholding
rate determined as indicated above for crude oil, also currently applies to
diesel, gasoline products and other crude oil derivative products, and as from
the issuance of Resolution No. 127/2008 in March 2008, to liquified petroleum
gas. In addition, this calculation procedure also applies to other petroleum
products and lubricants, considering different reference and floor prices as
disclosed in Resolution No. 394/2007.</font></div>

expected long-term rate of return on pension fund assets was determined based on
input from our investment consultants and the projected long-term returns of
broad equity and bond indices. The Company anticipates that on the average, the
investment managers for each of the plans will generate long-term rates of
return of at least 7%. The long-term rate of return is based on an asset
allocation assumption of about 70% equity securities and 30% fixed income
securities. The Company regularly reviews its actual asset allocation and
rebalances its investments when it is considered appropriate. The Company will
continue to evaluate its long-term rate of return assumptions at least annually
and will adjust them as necessary.</font></div>

      31, 2003, YPF received a claim from the Federal Administration of Public
      Revenue (&#8220;AFIP&#8221;), stating that the sales corresponding to forward oil sale
      agreements entered into by YPF, should have been subject to an income tax
      withholding. On March 8, 2004, the AFIP formally notified YPF of a claim
      for approximately 45 plus interests and fines. Additionally, on June 24,
      2004, YPF received a new formal claim from the AFIP, considering that the
      services related to these contracts should have been taxed with the value
      added tax. Consequently, during 2004, YPF presented its defense to the
      AFIP rejecting the claims and arguing its position. However, on December
      28, 2004, YPF was formally notified of a resolution from the AFIP
      confirming its original position in both claims for the period 1997 to
      2001. The Company has appealed such resolution in the National Fiscal
      Court. In 2006, YPF conditionally paid the amounts corresponding to
      periods that followed those included in the claim by the AFIP and filed
      reimbursement summary proceedings so as to avoid facing interest payment
      or a fine. On March 18, 2008 the AFIP notified us of the rejection of the
      reimbursement previously mentioned. The Company will appeal that decision

No.&#160;752/2005 of the Secretariat of Energy provided that industrial users
and thermal generators (which according to this resolution will have to request
volumes of gas directly from the producers) could also acquire the natural gas
from the cutbacks on natural gas export through the Permanent Additional
Injections mechanism created by this resolution. By means of the Program and/or
the Permanent Additional Injection, the Argentine Government, requires natural
gas exporting producers to deliver additional volumes to the domestic market in
order to satisfy natural gas demand of certain domestic consumers of the
Argentine market (&#8220;Additional Injection Requirements&#8221;). Such additional volumes
are not contractually committed by YPF, who is thus forced to affect natural gas
exports, the execution has been conditioned. The mechanisms that affect the
exports established by the resolutions No. 659/2004 and 752/2005 have been
adapted by SE Resolution No. 599/2007 depending on whether the producers have
signed or not the Proposed Agreement, ratified by such resolution, between the
Secretariat of Energy and the Producers. Additionally, the Argentine Government,
through other instructions made using different procedures, has limited natural
gas exports (in conjunction with the Program and the Additional Injection
Requirements, named the &#8220;Restrictions&#8221;).</font></div>

Puerto S.A. has sued YPF for cutbacks in natural gas supply pursuant to their
respective contracts. The Company has formally denied such breach, based on the
view that, pending the restructuring of such contracts, it is not obliged to
confirm nominations of natural gas to those clients during certain periods of
the year. On March 15, 2007, Central Puerto S.A. notified YPF of the beginning
of pre-arbitral negotiations in relation to the agreements for the supply of its
plants located in Buenos Aires and Loma La Lata, Province of Neuqu&#233;n. On May 29,
2007, the parties reached a settlement agreement in order to solve their
disputes related to the Loma La Lata natural gas supply contract. Additionally,
on June 6, 2007, Central Puerto S.A. notified its decision to submit to
arbitration under the rules of the International Chamber of Commerce the
controversy related to natural gas supply to its combined-cycle plant located in
the city of Buenos Aires. Central Puerto S.A. nominated its arbiter and notified
YPF the commencement of an arbitration proceeding in that Chamber. On June 21,
2007, YPF nominated its arbiter and notified its decision to submit the
controversy related to certain amounts claimed to Central Puerto S.A., also
related to the natural gas supply to its combined-cycle located in the city of
Buenos Aires to an arbitration proceeding. On July 23, 2007, YPF received the
arbitration demand which was answered on September 24, 2007, denying the claims
of Central Puerto. Besides, the Company has filed a counterclaim requesting,
among other things, the termination of the contract or, in absence of this, the
revision based on the hardship provision and the &#8220;both-parties-effort&#8221;. On
December 3, 2007, Central Puerto S.A. submitted a presentation requesting (i)
the rejection of all subsidiary claims presented by YPF S.A., including the
request that the Chamber ratifies the effectiveness of the contract and the
rejection of the fair reconvention of the contract; (ii) the rejection of the
settlement and payment claim related to amounts due by Central Puerto S.A.

      entities. Directive No. 1 seeks to address natural resource damages
      allegedly resulting from almost 200 years of historic industrial and
      commercial development of the lower 17 miles of the Passaic River and a
      part of its watershed. Directive No. 1 asserts that the named entities are
      jointly and severally liable for the alleged natural resource damages
      without regard to fault. The DEP has asserted jurisdiction in this matter
      even though all or part of the lower Passaic River has been designated as
      a Superfund site and is a subject of the PRRP. Directive No. 1 calls for
      the following actions: interim compensatory restoration, injury
      identification, injury quantification and value determination. Maxus and
      Tierra responded to Directive No. 1 setting forth good faith defenses.
      Settlement discussions between the DEP and the named entities have been
      held; however, no agreement has been reached or is

      US$ 0.9 billion to US$ 2.3 billion and are all described by EPA as
      involving proven technologies that could be carried out in the near term,
      without extensive research. Tierra, in conjunction with the other parties
      of the PRRP group, submitted comments on the draft FFS to EPA, as did
      other interested parties. In September 2007, EPA announced its intention

      for public comment by the middle of 2008 and to select a clean-up plan in
      the last quarter of 2008. Tierra will respond to any further EPA proposal

Occidental and two other chromium manufacturers directing them to arrange for
the cleanup of chromite ore residue at three sites in Jersey City and the
conduct of a study by paying the DEP a total of US$&#160;20 million. While YPF
Holdings Inc. believes that Maxus is improperly named and there is little or no
evidence that Chemicals&#8217; chromite ore residue was sent to any of these sites,
the DEP claims these companies are jointly and severally liable without regard
to fault. Second, the State of New Jersey filed a lawsuit against Occidental and
two other entities in state court in Hudson County seeking, among other things,
cleanup of various sites where chromite ore residue is allegedly located,
recovery of past costs incurred by the state at such sites (including in excess
of US$&#160;2&#160;million allegedly spent for investigations and studies) and,
with respect to certain costs at 18 sites, treble damages. The DEP claims that
the defendants are jointly and severally liable, without regard to fault, for
much of the damages alleged. During mediation, the parties have engaged in
discussion regarding possible settlement; however, there is no assurance that
these discussions will be successful.</font></div>

(&#8220;OEPA&#8221;) ordered to conduct a Remedial Investigation and Feasibility Study
(&#8220;RIFS&#8221;) at the former Painesville's Plant area. Tierra has agreed to
participate in the RIFS as required by the OEPA. Tierra submitted the remedial
investigation report to the OEPA, which report was finalized in 2003. Tierra is
submitting required feasibility reports separately. In addition, the OEPA has
approved certain work, including the remediation of specific sites within the
former Painesville Works area and work associated with the development plans
discussed below (the &#8220;Remediation Work&#8221;). The Remediation Work has begun. As the

      injunction, that the defendants refrain from carrying out activities
      affecting the environment. Both the Ombudsman&#8217;s summon as well as the
      requested preliminary injunction were rejected by the Supreme Court of
      Justice of Argentina. YPF has answered the demand and has required the
      summon of the National Government, due to it&#8217;s obligation to indemnify YPF
      for events and claims previous to January 1, 1991, according to Law No.

result of an illicit detected at that time, being at that moment YPF a
state-owned company. Fuel would have emerged and become perceptible in November

affected area, supervised by the environmental authority of the province of
Buenos Aires. YPF has requested suspension of the term to respond to the

      Board: </font>On November 17, 2003, Antitrust Board requested
      explanations, within the framework of an official investigation pursuant
      to Art. 29 of the Antitrust Act, from a group of almost thirty natural gas
      production companies, among them YPF, with respect to the following items:
      (i) the inclusion of clauses purportedly restraining trade in natural gas
      purchase/sale contracts and (ii) gas imports from Bolivia, in particular
      (a) old expired contracts signed by YPF, when it was state-owned, and YPFB
      (the Bolivian state-owned oil company), under which YPF allegedly sold
      Bolivian gas in Argentina at prices below the purchase price; and (b) the
      unsuccessful attempts in 2001 by Duke and Distribuidora de Gas del Centro
      to import gas into Argentina from Bolivia. On January 12, 2004, YPF
      submitted explanations in accordance with Art. 29 of the Antitrust Act,
      contending that no antitrust violations had been committed and that there
      had been no price discrimination between natural gas sales in the
      Argentine market and the export market. On January 20, 2006, YPF received
      a notification of resolution dated December 2, 2005, whereby the
      AntitrustBoard (i) rejected the &#8220;non bis in idem&#8221; petition filed by YPF,
      on the grounds that ENARGAS was not empowered to resolve the issue when
      ENARGAS Resolution No. 1,289 was enacted; and (ii) ordered that the
      preliminary opening of the proceedings be undertaken pursuant to the
      provisions of Section 30 of Act 25,156. On January 15, 2007, Antitrust
      Board charged YPF and eight other producers with violations of Act 25,156.
      YPF has contested the complaint on the basis that no violation of the Act
      took place and that the charges are barred by the applicable statute of
      limitations, and has presented evidence in support of its position. On
      June 22, 2007, YPF presented to the Antitrust Board, without acknowledging
      any conduct in violation of the Antitrust Act, a commitment consistent
      with Article 36 of the Antitrust Act, requiring to the Antitrust Board to
      approve the commitment, to suspend the investigation and to file the

      La Plata: </font>On June 6, 2007, YPF was served with a new complaint in
      which 9 residents of the vicinity of Refineria La Plata request i) the
      cease of contamination and other harms they claim are attributable to the
      refinery; ii) the clean-up of the adjacent channels, R&#237;o Santiago and R&#237;o
      de la Plata (soil, water and acquiferous) or, if clean-up is impossible,
      indemnification for environmental and personal damages. The plaintiff has
      quantified damages as 51, or an amount to be determined from evidence
      produced during the proceeding. YPF believes that most damages that are
      alleged by the plaintiff, might be attributable to events that occurred
      prior to YPF's privatization and would therefore be covered to that extent
      by the indemnity granted by the Argentine Government in accordance with
      the Privatization Law of YPF. Notwithstanding the foresaid, the
      possibility of YPF being asked to afford these liabilities is not
      discarded, in which case the Argentine State must be asked to reimburse
      the remediation expenses for liabilities existing prior to January 1,
      1991. In addition, the claim partially overlaps with the request made by a
      group of neighbours of the La Plata Refinery on June 29, 1999, mentioned
      in &#8220;La Plata environmental claims&#8221;. Accordingly, YPF considers that the
      cases should be partially consolidated to the extent that the claims
      overlap. Regarding claims not consolidated, for the time being information
      and documents in order to answer the claim are being collected, and it is
      not possible to reasonably estimate the outcome, as long as, if
      applicable, estimate the corresponding legal fees and expenses that might
      result. The contamination that may exist could derive from countless
      sources, including from disposal of waste over many years by other
      industrial facilities and ships.</font></div>

YPF is aware of an action in which it has not yet been served, in which the
plaintiff requests the clean-up of the channels adjacent to the La Plata
Refinery, R&#237;o Santiago, and other sectors near the coast line, and, if such
remediation is not possible, an indemnification of 500 (approximately US$ 161
million) or an amount to be determined from evidence produced in discovery. The
claim partially overlaps with the requests made by a group of neighbours of the
La Plata Refinery on June 29, 1999, previously mentioned in &#8220;La Plata
environmental claims&#8221;, and with the complaint served on June 6, 2007, mentioned
in the previous paragraph. Accordingly, YPF considers that if it is served in
this proceeding or any other proceeding related to the same subject matters, the
cases should be consolidated to the extent that the claims overlap. With respect
to claims not consolidated, for the time being, it is not possible to reasonably
estimate the monetary outcome, as long as, if applicable, estimate the
corresponding legal fees and expenses that might result. Additionally, YPF
believes that most damages that would be alleged by the plaintiff, if proven,
may be attributable to events that occurred prior to YPF's privatization and
would therefore be the responsibility of the Argentine Government in accordance
with the Privatization Law concerning YPF.</font></div>

      has received an advanced payment for a crude oil future delivery

      agreement, the Company has agreed to sell and deliver approximately 23.9

      contract deliveries, YPF may deliver crude oil from different sources,
      including its own produced crude oil and crude oil acquired from third
      parties. This payment has been classified as &#8220;Net advances from crude oil
      purchasers&#8221; on the balance sheet and is being reduced as crude oil is
      delivered to the purchaser under the term of the contract. As of December
      31, 2007, approximately 1 million crude oil barrels are pending of
      delivery.</font></div>

14, 2007, Resolution No. 599/2007 of the Secretariat of Energy was published
(the &#8220;Resolution&#8221;). This Resolution approved an agreement with natural gas
producers regarding the natural gas supply to the domestic market during the
period 2007 through 2011 (the &#8220;Agreement 2007-2011&#8221;), giving such producers a
five business-day term to enter into the Agreement 2007-2011. The purpose of
this Agreement 2007-2011 is to guarantee the normal supply of the natural gas
domestic market during the period 2007 through 2011, considering the domestic
market demand registered during 2006 plus the growth of residential and small
commercial customers consumption (the &#8220;Priority Demand&#8221;). According to the
Resolution, the producers that have signed the Agreement 2007-2011 commit to
supply a part of the Priority Demand according to certain percentage determined
for each producer based upon its share of production for the 36 months period
prior to April 2004. In case of shortage to supply Priority Demand, natural gas
exports of producers that did not sign the Agreement 2007-2011 will be the first
to be called upon in order to satisfy such mentioned shortage. The Agreement
2007-2011 also establishes terms of effectiveness and pricing provisions for the
Priority Demand consumption. Considering that the Resolution anticipates the
continuity of the regulatory mechanisms that affect the exports, YPF has
appealed the Resolution and has expressly stated that the execution of the
Agreement 2007-2011 does not mean any recognition by YPF of the validity of that
Resolution. On June 22, 2007, the National Direction of Hydrocarbons notified
that the Agreement 2007-2011 reached the sufficient level of subscription and
that it is currently in an implementation stage.</font></div>

connection with certain natural gas export contracts from the Noroeste basin in

existence of natural gas reserves of that basin in adherence to export permits.
If The Secretariat of Energy considers that the natural gas reserves are
insufficient, it could resolve the partial or total suspension of one or several
export permits. Through SE Note No. 1,009/2006, the Secretariat of Energy
limited the exportable volumes of natural gas authorized by the SE Resolution
No. 167/1997 in a 20% (thus, 80% of the authorized exportable volumes remain
outstanding) by the SE Note N&#176; 1,009/2006. All of this is connected with the

      through Decree No. 1,252/2000, the Argentine Federal Executive Branch (the
      &#8220;Federal Executive&#8221;) extended for an additional term of 10 years, until
      November 2027, the concession for the exploitation of Loma La Lata -
      Sierra Barrosa area granted to YPF. The extension was granted under the
      terms and conditions of the Extension Agreement executed between the
      Federal Government, the Province of Neuqu&#233;n and YPF on December 5, 2000.
      Under this agreement, YPF paid US$&#160;300 million to the Federal
      Government for the extension of the concession mentioned above, which were
      recorded in fixed assets and committed among other things to define an
      investment program of US$ 8,000 million in the Province of Neuqu&#233;n from
      2000 to 2017 and to pay to the Province of Neuqu&#233;n 5% of the net cash
      flows arising out of the concession during each year of the extension
      term. The previously mentioned commitments have been affected by the
      changes in economic rules established by Public Emergency and Exchange
      System Reform Law No.&#160;25,561.</font></div>

subsidiaries and investees as of December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, prepared in
accordance with Argentine GAAP by applying the procedures specified in SFAS No.

that would have been reported if the accounting records had been kept in the
functional currency. Accordingly, monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured
at the balance sheet date (current) exchange rate. Amounts carried at prices in
past transactions are remeasured at the exchange rates in effect when the
transactions occurred. Revenues and expenses are remeasured on a monthly basis
at the average rates of exchange in effect during the period, except for
consumption of nonmonetary assets, which are remeasured at the rates of exchange
in effect when the respective assets were acquired. Translation gains and losses
on monetary assets and liabilities arising from the remeasurement are included
in the determination of net income (loss) in the period such gains and losses
arise. For certain YPF&#8217;s subsidiary and investees, Management has determined the
Argentine peso as its functional currency. Translation adjustments resulting
from the process of translating the financial statements of the mentioned
subsidiary and investees into U.S. dollars are not included in determining net

accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of
tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement cost. The
standard applies to legal obligations associated with the retirement of
long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development
and normal use of the asset. SFAS No.&#160;143 requires that the fair value of a
liability for an asset retirement obligation be recognized in the period in
which it is incurred, if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The
asset retirement obligations liability is built up in cash flow layers, with
each layer being discounted using the discount rate as of the date that the
layer was created. Remeasurement of the entire obligation using current discount
rates is not permitted. Each cash flow layer is added to the carrying amount of
the associated asset. This additional carrying amount is then depreciated over
the life of the asset. The liability is increased due to the passage of time
based on the time value of money (&#8220;accretion expense&#8221;) until the obligation is
settled. The activity with respect to retirement obligations under US GAAP is
detailed in Note&#160;15.c.</font></div>

delivery of oil. The price of the oil to be delivered was calculated using
various factors, including the expected future price and quality of the crude
oil being delivered. The counterparty or assignee to the oil supply agreement is
a VIE incorporated in the Cayman Islands, which finance itself through the
issuance of notes. The oil to be delivered under the supply agreement is
subsequently sold in the open market.</font></div>

Instruments and Hedging Activities&#8221;.</font> The new standard is intended to
improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities
by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their
effects on an entity&#8217;s financial position, financial performance, and cash
flows. The new standard also improves transparency about the location and
amounts of derivative instruments in an entity&#8217;s financial statements; how
derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under
SFAS&#160;133; and how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect
its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows.&#160;This
Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and
interim periods beginning after November&#160;15, 2008, with early application
encouraged. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this new
statement at the required effective date will have a significant effect in its
results of operations, financial position or cash flows.</font></div>

and gas reserves are the estimated quantities of crude oil, natural gas, and
natural gas liquids which geological and engineering available data demonstrate
with reasonable certainty to be recoverable in future years from known
reservoirs under existing economic and operating conditions, i.e., prices and
costs as of the date the estimate is made. Prices include consideration of
changes in existing prices provided by contractual arrangements, but not on
increases based upon future conditions. Proved developed oil and gas reserves
are reserves that can reasonably be expected to be recovered through existing
wells with existing equipment and operating methods.</font></div>

of reserves were prepared using standard geological and engineering methods
generally accepted by the petroleum industry and in accordance with the rules
and regulations of the SEC. The choice of method or combination of methods
employed in the analysis of each reservoir was determined by experience in the
area, stage of development, quality and completeness of basic data, and
production history. There are numerous uncertainties inherent in estimating
quantities of proved reserves and in projecting future rates of production and
timing of development expenditures, including many factors beyond the control of
the producer. Reserve engineering is a subjective process of estimating
underground accumulations of crude oil and natural gas that cannot be measured
in an exact manner and the accuracy of any reserve estimate is a function of the
quality of available data and of engineering and geological interpretation and
judgment. In addition, results of drilling, testing and production subsequent to
the date of an estimate may justify revision of such estimate. Accordingly,
reserve estimates are often different from the quantities of crude oil and
natural gas that are ultimately recovered. The meaningfulness of such estimates
is highly dependent upon the accuracy of the assumption upon which they were
based. The reserve estimates were subjected to economic tests to determine
economic limits. The reserves in Argentina are stated prior to the payment of
any royalties to the provinces in which the reserves are located. Consequently,
royalties are given effect in such economic tests as operating costs in
Argentina. The estimates may change as a result of numerous factors including,
but not limited to, additional development activity, evolving production
history, and continued reassessment of the viability of production under varying
economic conditions.</font></div>

proved reserves less future costs of producing and developing the reserves,
future income taxes and a discount factor. Future cash inflows represent the

associated with dismantling and abandonment of wells, assuming year-end costs
continue without consideration of future inflation. Future income taxes were
determined by applying statutory rates to future cash inflows less future
production costs and less tax depreciation of the properties involved. The
present value was determined by applying a discount rate of 10% per year to the
annual future net cash flows.</font></div>
