<P style="line-height:12pt; margin-top:8px; margin-bottom:8px; font-family:Book Antiqua,Times New Roman; font-size:12pt" align=justify>Dear Sirs,</P>
<P style="margin-top:8px; margin-bottom:8px; font-family:Book Antiqua,Times New Roman; font-size:12pt" align=justify>I am writing to you in my capacity as Head of Market Relations of Transportadora de Gas del Sur S.A. (&#147;TGS&#148;) in relation to the cash dividends in the amount of AR$ 912,009,936 that were available for payment as from July 17, 2018 &#150;for the year ended December 31, 2016-. The dividend amount paid represented 114.791107702% of the capital stock of AR$ 794,495,283 and shareholders who hold class A and class B book-entry common shares got AR$ 1.147911077 for each AR$ 1 share. The aforementioned cash dividend was paid as per the delegation of authority conferred by the Regular and Special Shareholders&#146; Meeting dated April 10, 2018 and the resolutions taken by TGS&#146; Board of Directors on July 6, 2018.</P>
<P style="margin-top:8px; margin-bottom:8px; font-family:Book Antiqua,Times New Roman; font-size:12pt" align=justify>Due to the fact that on the date the above mentioned dividend payment was paid, the treasury ADRs held by TGS were not recorded for accounting purposes, the amount paid for each share and the percentage that the cash dividend represented was estimated on the basis of the capital stock and not of the outstanding capital stock. </P>
<P style="margin-top:8px; margin-bottom:8px; font-family:Book Antiqua,Times New Roman; font-size:12pt" align=justify>Taking into consideration that on July 12, 2018 (inclusive), TGS held 1,558,247 treasury ADRs -representing 7,791,235 TGS common shares- the cash dividend that was available for payment as from July 17, 2018 represents 115.9279577% of the outstanding capital stock of AR$ 786,704,048, which stands for $1.159279577 for each outstanding AR$ 1 share. </P>
<P style="margin-top:8px; margin-bottom:8px; font-family:Book Antiqua,Times New Roman; font-size:12pt" align=justify>In the light of the foregoing, we hereby inform shareholders who by July 16, 2018 held class A and class B book-entry common shares that as from August 22, 2018 &#150;and as a supplement to the cash dividend paid on July 17, 2018- a cash dividend of AR$ 0,011368500 per outstanding AR$ 1 share shall be available for payment.</P>
