largely attributed to the $1,006 million gain arising from currency exchange differences derived from the appreciation of the Peso during the nine-month period of 2003, which affected the Company&#146;s net foreign currency monetary position.
Additionally, as a consequence of the lower exchange rate, the interest on foreign currency liabilities decreased by $203 million as compared with the 9M02. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

However, in connection with its decision to suspend the payments on its financial debts described in Note 12, Telecom Argentina initiated discussions with its counterparts to mutually unwind and terminate its interest rate and currency swap
obligations, as payments under such hedges were not consistent with the decision to suspend the payments on its financial debt obligations. In addition, as the Argentine peso is no longer pegged to the U.S. dollar, such hedges no longer served their
intended purpose. As a consequence, during 2002, Telecom Group mutually agreed with its swap counterparts to unwind all interest rate and currency swap agreements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

carryforwards and from tax basis of foreign currency exchange differences generated by debts in foreign currency. Deferred tax liabilities principally arise from differences in fixed assets valuation as compared to the tax basis of such assets, due
to differences in depreciation and the tax treatment of financial results capitalized in that caption (interests and foreign exchange differences) and the accounting for inflation. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

Government, through Decree No. 2568/02 dated December 11, 2002, stated that net losses from exchange differences of assets and liabilities in foreign currency in existence up to January 6, 2002 must be determined considering the exchange rate of
US$1=$1.40 and should be deductible for income tax purpose only at a rate of 20% per year starting in fiscal year 2002. Consequently, the difference between the $1.40 rate and the exchange rate at year 2002 end ($3.37) should be entirely deducted

carryforward, the probabilities to obtain enough taxable profits in the period 2003 &#150; 2007 in order to use the tax credit carryforwards existing at December 31, 2002 and the deductible exchange differences for the next four fiscal years, became

changing the valuation of such assets, but adjusting the amount thereof into a uniform measurement unit. Therefore, it has required to consider such effect as a permanent difference. This method seems to agree with the one that compares the book and
