Any offer or sale of the new notes in any member state of the European Economic Area which has implemented Directive 2003/711/EC (the &#8220;Prospectus Directive&#8221;) must be addressed to qualified investors (as defined in the Prospectus Directive). The new notes are not intended to be offered, sold, distributed or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold, distributed or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area. For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU (&#8220;MiFID II&#8221;); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II.

We operate the remaining 961 miles, which are owned by the Gas Trusts, for a regulated tariff. Our transportation system connects the Neuqu&#233;n, San Jorge and Austral basins, located in the south and west of our country, to the greater Buenos Aires area and the major consumption centers of southern Argentina. Substantially all of our transportation capacity, approximately 2.8 Bcf/d as of December 31, 2017, is subscribed for under firm long-term natural gas transportation contracts.</div>
