Re.: Report of resolution in the case:

TELECOM ARGENTINA S.A. a/EN-AFIP

re. Legal Proceeding (proceso de conocimiento)

Dear Sir,

I am writing to you in my capacity as Attorney in fact of Telecom Argentina S.A. (“Telecom Argentina” or the “Company”), in order to inform you that yesterday the Federal Contentious Administrative Court No. 11 of the City of Buenos Aires admitted as duly constituted the surety bond ordered by the Court of Appeals (Chamber I of the Federal Contentious Administrative Court), which ordered the revocation of the lower court decision dated July 15, 2020, which granted the Company a precautionary measure providing for the suspension of payment by the Company of the Value Added Tax (VAT) and Internal Consumption Tax (IIC) for all those services billed with respect to users covered by Decree No. 311/2020, and other related regulations, until said invoices are effectively paid in whole or in part by such users, as long as said amounts have not been effectively paid by the Company to the National Treasury, in order to prevent the measure from creating distorting consequences arising from the inherent complexities of the settlement of taxes, and to avoid an undue enrichment without cause that benefits the Company to the detriment of the National Treasury. The measure will have a term of six (6) months or until the exceptional legal reasons that gave rise to the precautionary request have ceased, whichever occurs first, in accordance with the terms of article 207 of the Civil and Commercial Procedure Code of the Nation (Article 18 of Law 26,854).

Sincerely,

Telecom Argentina S.A.

/s/ Andrea V. Cerdán

Attorney in Fact
