the effect of temporary differences between accounting and taxable income. The Bank considered as temporary differences those that have a definitive reversal date in subsequent years. As of December&nbsp;31, 2005 and 2004, the Bank has estimated the

supplementary to income tax: while the latter is levied on the taxable income for the year, TOMPI is a minimum levy determined by applying the current 1% rate on the potential income of certain productive assets. Therefore, the Bank&#146;s tax
obligation for each year will coincide with the highest of these taxes. The above Law provides that institutions governed by Financial Institutions Law must consider as a tax base 20% of their taxable assets, after deducting non-computable ones.
However, if TOMPI exceeds income tax in a given year, the excess thereof may be computed as a payment on account of any income tax in excess of TOMPI that may occur in any of the following ten years. </FONT></P> <P

(for an approximate amount of US$ 80 billion). The process included a significant reduction in the principal owed as well as reduction in interest rates and extension of payment terms. For this purpose, the National Government offered three types of
bonds in exchange for the defaulted securities, whose characteristics were established pursuant to Decree No.&nbsp;1735/04. Additionally, the Government has announced that it is not planning to make payments on debt not submitted to the
restructuring process. The proposal presented contemplated the issuance of bonds with significant waiting periods both for the amortization of principal and interest. This will allow the Government to schedule maturities stepwise and to have
financial relief, as it will thus be able to adequately honor payments of the debt recently restructured and to continue to honor the payments already committed in the framework of the debt restructured during 2002 (primarily the Secured Loans
issued by the National Government) as it has been doing so far. The swap period came to an end on February&nbsp;25, 2005. The level of acceptance received by the exchange offer was significant. On March&nbsp;18, 2005, the National Government
announced the outcome of the exchange, the degree of acceptance of which amounted to 76,15%. And this implies that the Argentine Republic has left the default behind. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:-6px"><FONT

increase in GDP, the Bank successfully implemented a business strategy aimed at reconstructing the volume of intermediation in the private sector, in turn reflected in 69.4% growth in the aggregate of loans to the private sector and 19.4% in total
deposits. In line with this objective, the Bank kept focused on its core business, consolidating its leading position in the market in terms of deposits, growing in terms of total loans to the private sector and posting quality levels in its
portfolio that are even better than those seen prior to the crisis. Additionally, the Bank maintained its strengths in transactional businesses carrying out at the same time major improvements in the structure of its assets and liabilities,
including a decrease in Government assets and total settlement of the re-discounts due to illiquidity granted by the Central Bank of Argentina during the 2002 crisis (with rate costs plus CER adjustment). The substantial increase in profitability
achieved during 2005 provides a sound basis for the challenge faced by the Bank for the future consisting in the expansion of recurring income, which represents the Bank&#146;s main objective. </FONT></P> <P
