DISCLOSURE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a “Safe Harbor” for forward looking statements.
This annual report contains or incorporates by reference statements that constitute “forward-looking statements,” regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of our directors and officers with respect to our future operating performance. Such statements include any forecasts, projections and descriptions of anticipated cost savings or other synergies. Words such as “anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate,” variations of such words, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. You should be aware that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and may involve risks and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors (including, without limitations, the actions of competitors, future global economic conditions, market conditions, foreign exchange rates, and operating and financial risks related to managing growth and integrating acquired businesses), many of which are beyond our control. The occurrence of any such factors not currently expected by us would significantly alter the results set forth in these statements.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely include, but are not limited to:

| • | changes in general economic, business or political or other conditions in Argentina or changes in general economic or business conditions in Latin America;
| • | changes in capital markets in general that may affect policies or attitudes toward lending to Argentina or Argentine companies;
| • | inflation, changes in exchange rates or regulations applicable to currency exchanges or transfers;
| • | our ability to integrate our business with companies and/or assets we may acquire;
| • | unexpected developments in certain existing litigation;
| • | current and future laws and governmental regulations applicable to our business;
| • | increased costs;
| • | fluctuations and reductions on the value of Argentina’s public debt;
| • | unanticipated increases in financing and other costs or the inability to obtain additional debt or equity financing on attractive terms;
| • | force majeure; and
| • | the factors discussed under “Risk Factors.”

You should not place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date that they were made. Our independent public accountants have not examined or compiled the forward-looking statements and, accordingly, do not provide any assurance with respect to such statements. These cautionary statements should be considered in connection with any written or oral forward-looking statements that we might issue in the future. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to such forward-looking statements after filing of this Form to reflect later events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

This annual report contains our audited consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 and for the years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 (our “Audited Consolidated Financial Statements”). Our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements have been audited by Price Waterhouse & Co. S.R.L. Buenos Aires Argentina, a member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers, an independent registered public accounting firm, whose report is included herein. We prepare our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements in Pesos and in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles used in Argentina, as set forth by the Federación Argentina de Consejos Profesionales de Ciencias Económicas (“FACPCE”) and as implemented, adapted, amended, revised and/or supplemented by the Consejo Profesional de Ciencias Económicas de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (“CPCECABA”) (collectively “Argentine GAAP”). In addition, we must comply with the regulations of the Comisión Nacional de Valores , the National Securities Commission in Argentina, which differ in certain significant respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). Such differences involve methods of measuring the amounts shown in the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements as well as additional disclosures required by US GAAP and Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). See Note 29 to our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of the principal differences between Argentine GAAP and U.S. GAAP, as they relate to us, and reconciliation to U.S. GAAP of net income and shareholders’ equity.
Changes in accounting policies
After considerable inflation levels for the second half of 2002 and the first months of 2003, on March 25, 2003, the Argentine government instructed the CNV to issue the necessary regulations to preclude companies under its supervision from presenting price-level restated financial statements. Therefore, on April 8, 2003, the CNV issued a resolution providing for the discontinuance of inflation accounting as of March 1, 2003. We complied with the CNV resolution and accordingly recorded the effects of inflation until February 28, 2003. Comparative figures were restated until that date, using a conversion factor of 1.1232. Since Argentine GAAP required companies to discontinue inflation adjustments as from October 1, 2003, the application of the CNV resolution represented a departure from Argentine GAAP. However, due to low inflation rates during the period from March 1, to September 30, 2003, such a departure did not have a material effect on our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements.
Resolution CD 93/2005 issued by the CPCECABA provided for the accounting treatment of differences between the tax basis and book basis of non-monetary items for deferred income tax calculation purposes when companies prepare price-level restated financial statements. This resolution mandated companies to treat these differences as temporary differences but allowed a one-time accommodation to continue treating these differences as permanent (“Resolution 93 treatment”). As a result, the Company had elected to continue treating these differences as permanent in its prior years´ financial statements.
On October 24, 2011, in anticipation of the implementation of International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) for public entities, the CNV issued Resolution No. 592 which provides that issuers who followed the Resolution 93 treatment should recognize the deferred tax liability on retroactive basis before its transaction date, i.e. July 1, 2011 for Cresud.
As a result, the Company recorded an adjustment to retroactively recognize the deferred tax liability as follows:

|  | As of June 30, 2011 |  |  | As of June 30, 2010 |  |  | As of June 30, 2009 |  |  | As of June 30, 2008 |

Transition to IFRS
On March 20, 2009, the FACPCE issued Technical Resolution No. 26 (“RT 26”) “Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”)” which required that companies under the supervision of the Comisión Nacional de Valores (“CNV”) to prepare their financial statements in accordance with IFRS as published by the IASB for fiscal periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011, including comparative information for earlier periods.
There are Consejos Profesionales or standard setters in each provincial jurisdiction in Argentina, which have the power to adopt, reject or modify a resolution issued by the FACPCE. The jurisdiction where we are located is the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires which consejo profesional is the CPCECABA.
On April 25, 2009, the CPCECABA approved RT 26. However, the CNV issued Resolution No. 562/09, as amended by Resolution 576/10, which formally adopted RT 26 for fiscal years beginning on January 1st, 2012. Accordingly, we are required to prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.
Furthermore, Technical Resolution No. 562/09, as amended by Resolution 576/10, mandated companies to include certain reconciling information between prior gaap and IFRS in the year prior to first adoption of IFRS. This information is not intended to purport the reconciliations required under IFRS 1 "first time adoption of IFRS" which will be included in the first IFRS consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2013.
This information comprised of reconciliation between Argentine GAAP and IFRS as issued by the IASB of shareholders equity as of July 1, 2011 (transition date) and as of June 30, 2012, as well as the income statement and cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2012. The items and figures reconciled in notes 29 to our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements are subject to changes and may only be considered final upon preparation of the annual financial standards for the year on which the International Financial Reporting Standards are applied for the first time. See note 29 to our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this form 20F.
Certain amounts which appear in this annual report (including percentage amounts) may not sum due to rounding. Solely for the convenience of the reader, we have translated certain Peso amounts into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate quoted by Banco de la Nación Argentina for June 30, 2012, which was Ps.4.527 = US$ 1.00. We make no representation that the Peso or U.S. dollar amounts actually represent or could have been or could be converted into U.S. dollars at the rates indicated, at any particular rate or at all.
References to fiscal years 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 are to the fiscal years ended June 30 of each such year.
MARKET DATA
Market data used throughout this annual report was derived from reports prepared by unaffiliated third-party sources. Such reports generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed by such sources to be reliable. Certain market data which appear herein (including percentage amounts) may not sum due to rounding.

Item 3 . Key information
A. SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA
The following selected consolidated financial data has been derived from our consolidated financial statements as of the dates and for each of the periods indicated below. This information should also be read in conjunction with and is qualified in its entirety by reference to our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the discussion in Operating and Financial Review and Prospects included elsewhere in this annual report.
The selected consolidated statement of operations data for the years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 and the selected consolidated balance sheet data as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 have been derived from our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report which have been audited by Price Waterhouse & Co. S.R.L., Buenos Aires, Argentina, a member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers, an independent registered public accounting firm.
The selected consolidated statement of income data for the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 and the selected consolidated balance sheet data as of June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008 have been derived from the financial statements originally issued and adjusted to reflect the retroactive application of the deferred tax liability treatment mandated by Resolution No. 592 described in Presentation of Financial and Certain Other Information.
References to fiscal years 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 are to the fiscal years ended June 30, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012, respectively.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, we acquired directly or indirectly 37,626,842 additional shares of IRSA. Our equity interest in IRSA is 64.20% as of June 30, 2012. We started consolidating the accounts and results of operations of IRSA as of October 1, 2008. Our consolidated financial information for periods prior to October 1, 2008 does not include the accounts of IRSA on a consolidated basis. Therefore, the income statement, balance sheet and cash flow data as of June 30, 2008 are not comparable to the fiscal years then ended.

Exchange Rates
In April 1991, Argentine law established a fixed exchange rate which statutorily obligated the Central to sell U.S. Dollars to any individual at a fixed exchange rate of Ps.1.00 per US$1.00. On January 7, 2002, the Argentine congress enacted Law No. 25.561 (the “Public Emergency Law”), abandoning over ten years of fixed Peso-U.S. Dollar parity at Ps.1.00 per US$1.00. After devaluing the Peso and setting the official exchange rate at Ps.1.40 per US$1.00, on February 11, 2002, the government allowed the Peso to float. The shortage of U.S. Dollars and their heightened demand caused the Peso to depreciate significantly in the first half of 2002. As of October 15, 2012 the exchange rate was Ps. 4.7070 = US$1.00 as quoted by Banco de la Nación Argentina at the U.S. Dollar selling rate. During 2009, 2010, 2011 and the first semester of 2012, the Central Bank of Argentina indirectly affected the exchange rate market, through active participation with the purpose of isolating external effects and maintaining a stable parity.

Risks Related to Argentina
Argentina’s recent growth may not be sustainable.
The Argentine economy has experienced significant volatility in recent decades, characterized by periods of low or negative growth, high inflation and currency devaluation. During 2001 and 2002, Argentina experienced a period of severe political, economic and social crisis, which caused a significant economic contraction and led to radical changes in government policies. Although the economy has recovered significantly since then, uncertainty remains as to whether the recent growth is sustainable, since it has depended, to a significant extent, on favorable exchange rates, high commodity prices and excess production capacity. The recovery, however, has resulted in inflation and has intensified the country’s need for capital investment, with many sectors, particularly the energy sector, operating near full capacity. Additionally, the global financial crisis and economic downturn of 2008 has had a significant adverse impact on the country’s performance and could remain a factor in the foreseeable future.
In 2011, the Argentine GDP increased 7.28%, according to data published by the National Institute of Statistics (“Instituto Nacional de Estadísticas y Censos” or the “INDEC”). For the six months ended June 30, 2012, GDP increased 1.17% relative to the same period the prior year, according to data published by the INDEC. As of June 30, 2012, the Monthly Economic Activity Estimator (“Estimador Mensual de Actividad Económica” or the “EMAE”) decreased 0.89%, relative to the same period the prior year, according to data published by the INDEC.
The economic and financial crisis in certain European countries, the United States, and certain other important commercial partners of Argentina, may imply a decline in the international demand for Argentine products, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and the results of operations.
Moreover, the country’s relative stability since 2002 has been affected recently by increased political tension and government intervention in the economy. Our business depends to a significant extent on macroeconomic and political conditions in Argentina. We cannot assure you that Argentina’s recent growth will continue. Deterioration of the country’s economy would likely have a significant adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Continuing inflation may have an adverse effect on the economy.
The devaluation of the Peso since January 2002 created pressures on the domestic price system that generated high inflation throughout 2002, before inflation substantially stabilized in 2003. In fiscal years 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011, and for the six months ended June 30, 2012, inflation according to the INDEC was 7.7%, 7.2%, 8.5%, 11.0%, 9.7% and 9.90%, respectively, in part due to actions implemented by the Argentine government to control inflation, including limitations on exports and price arrangements agreed upon with private companies. The uncertainty surrounding future inflation may impact the country’s growth.
In the past, inflation has undermined the Argentine economy and the government’s ability to create conditions conducive to growth. A return to a high inflation environment would adversely affect the availability of long-term credit and the real estate market and may also affect Argentina’s foreign competitiveness by diluting the effects of the Peso devaluation and negatively impacting the level of economic activity and employment.
Additionally, high inflation would also undermine Argentina’s foreign competitiveness and adversely affect economic activity, employment, real salaries, consumption and interest rates. In addition, the dilution of the positive effects of the Peso devaluation on the export-oriented sectors of the Argentine economy will decrease the level of economic activity in the country. In turn, a portion of the Argentine debt is adjusted by the Coefciente de Estabilización de Referencia, (the “Stabilization Coefficient Index, or “CER Index”), a currency index that is strongly tied to inflation. Therefore, any significant increase in inflation would cause an increase in Argentina’s debt and, consequently, the country`s financial obligation.
If inflation remains high or continues to rise, Argentina’s economy may be negatively impacted and our business could be adversely affected.
There are concerns about the accuracy of Argentina’s official inflation statistics.
In January 2007, the INDEC modified its methodology used to calculate the consumer price index, which is calculated as the monthly average of a weighted basket of consumer goods and services that reflects the pattern of consumption of Argentine households. Several economists, as well as the international and Argentine press, have suggested that this change in methodology was related to the policy of the Argentine government’s policy to curb the increase of inflation and consequently reduce payments on the outstanding inflation-linked bonds issued by Argentina. At the time that the INDEC adopted this change in methodology the Argentine government also replaced several key officers at the INDEC, prompting complaints of governmental interference from the technical staff at the INDEC. In addition, the International Monetary Fund (“IMF”) requested the government to clarify its inflation rates several times.
In June 2008, the INDEC published a new consumer price index which eliminated nearly half of the items included in previous surveys and introduced adjustable weightings for several items as fruits, vegetables and clothing, which have seasonal cost variations. The INDEC indicated that it based its evaluation of spending habits on a national household consumption survey from 2004 to 2005, in addition to other sources.
The aforementioned new consumer price index has been criticized by economists and investors after its debut report found prices rising well below expectations. These events have negatively affected the credibility of the consumer price index published by the INDEC, as well as other indexes published by the INDEC which require the consumer price index for their own calculation, including the poverty index, the unemployment index and real gross domestic product index. Argentina’s inflation rate may be significantly higher than the rates indicated by official reports.
In December 2010, the Argentine government agreed to meet with an official IMF team which arrived in Argentina to assist the INDEC with the development of a new national price index. In April 2011, the IMF team completed the second technical mission to assist on the design and methodology of a new national price index. As of the date of this annual report, Argentina´s government is intended to implement a new consumer price index before February 2013.
If the investigation carried out by the IMF results in a finding that the methodologies used to calculate the Consumer Price Index or other INDEC indexes derived from the Consumer Price Index were not accurate, or if it is determined that it is necessary to correct the Consumer Price Index and the other INDEC indexes derived from the Consumer Price Index as a result of the methodology used by INDEC, there could be a significant decrease in confidence in the Argentine economy. Given the limited credit available to emerging market nations as a result of the global economic crisis, the ability to access credit in the capital markets could be limited by the uncertainty relating to the inaccuracy of the economic indexes and rates in question which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial conditions.
Argentina’s ability to obtain financing from international markets is limited, which may impair its ability to implement reforms and foster economic growth
In 2005, Argentina restructured part of its sovereign debt that had been in default since the end of 2001. As a result of this restructuring, the Argentine government announced that it had approximately US$129.2 billion in total gross public debt as of December 31, 2005. Certain bondholders that did not participate in that restructuring, mainly from the United States, Italy and Germany, filed legal actions against Argentina to collect on the defaulted bonds. Many of these proceedings are still pending as of this date and holdout creditors may initiate new suits in the future.
On January 3, 2006, Argentina repaid in full its debt of approximately US$9.8 billion with the IMF.
In September 2008, Argentina announced its intention to cancel its external public debt to Paris Club creditor nations using reserves of the Central Bank in an amount equal to approximately US$6.5 billion. However, as of the date of this Annual Report, the National Government has not yet cancelled such debt. In late 2010, Argentina´s government announced a new round of negotiations with the Paris Club to cancel such debt, which then totaled approximately US$8.0 billion, without the intervention of the IMF.
In addition, foreign shareholders of several Argentine companies have filed claims before the International Center for the Settlement of Investment Disputes (“ICSID”) alleging that certain government measures adopted during the country’s 2001 crisis were inconsistent with the fair and equitable treatment standards set forth in various bilateral investment treaties to which Argentina is a party. Since May 2005, the ICSID tribunals have issued several awards against Argentina. Only the cases “CMS v. Argentina”, “Azurix v. Argentina” and “Vivendi v. Argentina” are currently final.These decisions required the Argentine government to pay U.S. $133.2 million, U.S. $165.2 million and U.S. $105 million, respectively. As of the date of this annual report, Argentina has not paid the amounts referred to above.
On April 30, 2010, Argentina launched a new debt exchange to holders of the securities issued in the 2005 debt exchange and to holders of the securities that were eligible to participate in the 2005 debt exchange (other than brady bonds) to exchange such debt for new securities and, in certain cases, a cash payment. As a result of the 2005 and 2010 exchange offers, Argentina restructured over 91% of the defaulted debt eligible for the 2005 and 2010 exchange offers. The creditors who did not participate in the 2005 or 2010 exchange offers may continue their pursuit of a legal action against Argentina for the recovery of debt, which could adversely affect Argentina’s access to the international capital markets.
- 11 -

Argentina’s past default and its failure to restructure completely its remaining sovereign debt and fully negotiate with the holdout creditors may limit Argentina’s ability to reenter the international capital markets. Litigation initiated by holdout creditors as well as ICSID claims have resulted and may continue to result in judgments and awards against the Argentine government which, if not paid, could prevent Argentina from obtaining credit from multilateral organizations. Judgment creditors have sought and may continue to seek to attach or enjoin assets of Argentina. In addition, various creditors have organized themselves into associations to engage in lobbying and public relations concerning Argentina’s default on its public indebtedness. Such groups have over the years unsuccessfully urged passage of federal and New York state legislation directed at Argentina’s defaulted debt and aimed at limiting Argentina’s access to the U.S. capital markets. Although neither the United States Congress nor the New York state legislature has taken any significant steps towards adopting such legislation, we can make no assurance that the enactment of new legislation or other political actions designed to limit Argentina’s access to capital markets will not take effect.
In April 2010, a Court of New York granted an attachment over reserves of the Argentine Central Bank in the United States requested by creditors of Argentina on the basis that the Central Bank was its alter ego. In July 2011, an appeals court reserved that ruling, stating that the assets of the Central Bank were protected by law. Plaintiffs have petitioned the United States Supreme Court to review the appeals court decision and, as of the date of this annual report, the United State Supreme Court has not addresed the case. As a result of Argentina’s default and its aftermath the government may not have the financial resources necessary to implement reforms and foster economic growth, which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on the country’s economy and, consequently, our businesses and results of operations. Furthermore, Argentina’s inability to obtain credit in international markets could have a direct impact on our own ability to access international credit markets to finance our operations and growth.
Significant fluctuation in the value of the Peso may adversely affect the Argentine economy as well as our financial performance.
Despite the positive effects of the real depreciation of the Peso in 2002 on the competitiveness of certain sectors of the Argentine economy, it has also had a far-reaching negative impact on the Argentine economy and on businesses and individuals’ financial condition. The devaluation of the Peso has had a negative impact on the ability of Argentine businesses to honor their foreign currency-denominated debt, initially led to very high inflation, significantly reduced real wages, had a negative impact on businesses whose success is dependent on domestic market demand, such as utilities and the financial industry, and adversely affected the government’s ability to honor its foreign debt obligations. If the Peso devalues significantly, all of the negative effects on the Argentine economy related to such devaluation could recur, with adverse consequences on our business. Moreover, it would likely result in a decline in the value of our common shares and the ADSs as measured in U.S. Dollars.
On the other hand, a substantial increase in the value of the Peso against the U.S. Dollar also presents risks for the Argentine economy. The appreciation of the Peso against the U.S. Dollar negatively impacts the financial condition of entities whose foreign currency denominated assets exceed their foreign currency-denominated liabilities, such as us. In addition, in the short term, a significant real appreciation of the Peso would adversely affect exports. This could have a negative effect on GDP growth and employment as well as reduce the Argentine public sector’s revenues by reducing tax collection in real terms, given its current heavy reliance on taxes on exports. The appreciation of the Peso against the U.S. Dollar could have an adverse effect on the Argentine economy and our business.
Government measures to preempt or respond to social unrest may adversely affect the Argentine economy and our business.
The Argentine government has historically exercised significant influence over the country’s economy. Additionally, the country’s legal and regulatory frameworks have at times suffered radical changes, due to political influence and significant political uncertainties.
Moreover, during its crisis in 2001 and 2002, Argentina experienced significant social and political turmoil, including civil unrest, riots, looting, nationwide protests, strikes and street demonstrations. Despite Argentina’s economic recovery and relative stabilization, social and political tension and high levels of poverty and unemployment continue. In 2008, Argentina faced nationwide strikes and protests from farmers due to increased export taxes on agricultural products, which disrupted economic activity and heightened political tension. Future government policies to preempt, or in response to, social unrest may include expropriation, nationalization, forced renegotiation or modification of existing contracts, suspension of the enforcement of creditors’ rights, new taxation policies, including royalty and tax increases and retroactive tax claims, and changes in laws and policies affecting foreign trade and investment. Such policies could destabilize the country and adversely and materially affect the economy, and thereby our business.
The nationalization of Argentina’s pension funds has materially and adversely affected local capital markets and may continue to do so.
Under Law No. 26,425, which was published in the Official Gazette in December 2008, the Argentine government transferred approximately Ps.94.4 billion (US$29.3 billion) in assets held by the country’s private Administradoras de Fondos de Jubilaciones y Pensiones (pension funds, or “AFJPs”) to the social security agency (“ANSES”) managed by the National State.
Law No. 26,425 was supplemented, among others, by Decree No. 2103/2008 which describes the composition of the fund (Fondo de Garantia de Sustentabilidad) to be managed by ANSES and the directions for the management thereof; in turn, Decree No. 2104/08 regulates the matters concerning the transfer to the Argentine government of the contributions and all the documentation of the members of the capitalization regime retroactive as of December 1, 2008.
AFJPs were the largest participants in the country’s local capital markets, leading the group of institutional investors. With the nationalization of their assets, the dynamics of the local capital markets changed due to the decrease in their number, becoming a concentrated group. In addition, the government became a significant shareholder in many of the country’s publicly-held companies. Pursuant to current regulations, ANSES may exercise the voting rights corresponding to its respective shares, which could eventually result in uncertain consequences. The nationalization of the AFJP has adversely affected investors’ confidence in Argentina, which may impact our ability to undertake access to the capital market in the future.
The nationalization of the AFJP has adversely affected investors’ confidence in Argentina, which may impact our ability to undertake access to the capital market in the future.
Exchange controls and restrictions on transfers abroad and capital inflow restrictions have limited, and can be expected to continue to limit, the availability of international credit.
In 2001 and 2002, Argentina imposed exchange controls and transfer restrictions substantially limiting the ability of companies to retain foreign currency or make payments abroad. On June 2005, the government issued decree No. 616/2005, which established additional controls on capital inflow, including the requirement that, subject to limited exemptions, 30% of all funds remitted to Argentina remain deposited in a domestic financial institution for one year without earning any interest. On October 2011, new exchange controls measures that restrict foreign exchange inflows and outflows of capital have been implemented, among them it was established as a requirement for the repatriation of the direct investment of the non-resident (purchase of shares of local companies and real estate), the demonstration of the income of the currency and its settlement in the single free exchange market “Mercado Único y Libre de Cambios”. This measure increases the cost of obtaining foreign funds and limits access to such financing. Additionally, in July 2012, the Central Bank issued Communication “A” 5318, that among others, suspended the access to the “Mercado Único y Libre de Cambios” by residents for the formation of off-shore assets without a specific allocation.
- 12 -

The Argentine government may, in the future, impose additional controls on the foreign exchange market and on capital flows from and into Argentina, in response to capital flight or depreciation of the Peso. These restrictions may have a negative effect on the economy and on our business if imposed in an economic environment where access to local capital is constrained. For more information, please see Item 10 (d) “Exchange Controls”.
Rural Land Law
On December 22, 2011 Congress passed a new law to protect the ownership and sovereignty of rural areas of Argentina (the " Ley de Tierras Rurales" or “Rural Land Law”).
The Rural Land Law sets limits to the domain of rural land by foreign individuals or legal entities ("Foreign Persons"), setting a maximum allowable percentage of ownership for foreigners of 20% in the rural areas of Argentina.
Additionally, only 30% of the aforementioned 20% above mentioned may be held by Foreign Persons of the same nationality, and from the date of enactment of the Rural Land Act, any foreign person may own more than 1,000 hectares throughout Argentine territory. The Rural Land Law states that it will not affect any rights previously acquired by Foreign Persons.
For the purposes of the Rural Land Law, the definition of foreign person includes Argentine companies in which a percentage higher than 51% of the outstanding capital stock is owned by foreign individuals or legal entities, or lower rates if the entity meets the proportions necessary to form the social will. The following also fall within the definition of Foreign Person (among others): a) entities controlled by a percentage greater than 25% by a foreign company (or regardless of participation) when such company holds enough votes to form the social will of that company; b) companies that issued convertible notes, where a Foreign Person may exert over 25% of the voting power necessary to form the social will; c) transfers for trusts whose beneficiaries are persons foreign in a percentage higher than 25%, d) joint ventures, holding companies and any other legal persons present or in the future, and e) foreign legal persons under public law.
On February 29, 2012, Decree 274/12 was published and it, which regulates the Rural Land Law. The Decree established a deadline of 60 days to the provinces to report the total area of ​​their departments, municipalities or political divisions equivalent discriminating rural and urban land and rural properties owned by foreign individuals or legal entities. Additionally, provinces should report the complete list of foreign companies registered at their jurisdiction. The decree also provides that foreign holders must report their holdings within 180 days from the date of enactment of regulations in the National Register of Rural Land.
Payment of dividends to non-residents has been limited in the past and may be limited again.
Beginning in February 2002, the payment of dividends, irrespective of amount, outside Argentina required prior authorization from the Central Bank. On January 7, 2003, the Central Bank issued communication “A” 3859, which is still in force and pursuant to which there are no limitations on companies’ ability to purchase foreign currency and transfer it outside Argentina to pay dividends, provided that those dividends arise from net earnings corresponding to approved and audited financial statements. If similar restrictions are enacted by the Argentine government or the Central Bank in the future, it could have an adverse effect on our business.

However similar restrictions may be enacted by the Argentine government or the Central Bank again and, if they were to occur, it could have an adverse effect on the value of our common shares and the GDSs.
Property values in Argentina could decline significantly.
Property values are influenced by multiple factors that are not beyond our control. We cannot assure you that property values increase or that they will not be reduced. Many of the properties we own are located in Argentina. As a result, a reduction in the value of properties in Argentina would materially affect our business.
The stability of the Argentine banking system is uncertain.
During 2001 and the first half of 2002, a significant amount of deposits were withdrawn from Argentine financial institutions largely due to the loss of confidence of depositors in the Argentine government’s ability to repay its debts, including its debts within the financial system, and to maintain Peso-Dollar parity in the context of its solvency crisis.
To prevent a run on the U.S. Dollar reserves of local banks, the government restricted the amount of money that account holders could withdraw from banks and introduced exchange controls restricting capital outflows.
While the condition of the financial system has improved, adverse economic developments, even if not related to or attributable to the financial system, could result in deposits flowing out of the banks and into the foreign exchange market, as depositors seek to shield their financial assets from a new crisis. Any run on deposits could create liquidity or even solvency problems for financial institutions, resulting in a contraction of available credit.
In the event of a future shock, such as the failure of one or more banks or a crisis in depositor confidence, the Argentine government could impose further exchange controls or transfer restrictions and take other measures that could lead to renewed political and social tensions and undermine the Argentine government’s public finances, which could adversely affect Argentina’s economy and prospects for economic growth which could adversely affect our business.

The Argentine economy could be adversely affected by economic developments in other global markets
Financial and securities markets in Argentina are influenced, to varying degrees, by economic and market conditions in other global markets. Although economic conditions vary from country to country, investors’ perception of the events occurring in one country may substantially affect capital flows into other countries, including. Lower capital inflows and declining securities prices negatively affect the real economy of a country through higher interest rates or currency volatility. The Argentine economy was adversely impacted by the political and economic events that occurred in several emerging economies in the 1990s, including those in Mexico in 1994, the collapse of several Asian economies between 1997 and 1998, the economic crisis in Russia in 1998 and the Brazilian devaluation in January 1999.
In addition, Argentina is also affected by the economic conditions of major trade partners, such as Brazil and/or countries that have influence over world economic cycles, such as the United States. If interest rates rise significantly in developed economies, including the United States, Argentina and other emerging market economies could find it more difficult and expensive to borrow capital and refinance existing debt, which would negatively affect their economic growth. In addition, if these developing countries, which are also Argentina’s trade partners, fall into a recession the Argentine economy would be affected by a decrease in exports. All of these factors would have a negative impact on us, our business, operations, financial condition and prospects.
Moreover, several European Union members have been obliged recently to reduce their public expenditures due to their high indebtedness rates, which had negatively impacted the Euro zone’s economy. Japan has also announced that it will cut fiscal expenditures. Since 2008, crisis “sub-prime” in the United States and the recent economic recession and fiscal deficit experienced in certain European countries caused an economic slowdown in the world’s principal economies. Recently, the possibility of a Greek or some Eurozone countries default has increased market volatility and it can complicate financing access a decline in global economic activity.
After acknowledging difficulties to meet payment of its public debt, the accounts of Greece were put under the supervision of the European Union. Mainly due to fears of contagion and to the drastic decline in Greece’s public debt ratings, the European Union, together with the International Monetary Fund, designed a plan of aid for Greece involving the supply of approximately 110 billion Euros. This contribution was granted based on the adjustment plan approved by the European Union for Greece, which included pay cuts for civil servants, pensions and retirement reductions, and significant increases in taxes. This led to widespread rioting in the streets.
Portugal, Germany and the UK have made similar adjustments in all areas to prevent further deterioration of their accounts. More recently, Ireland has adopted similar measures, and on June 2012, the Eurogroup agreed to lend Spain up to 100 billion euros to shore up its teetering banks (while at the same time was negotiating additional rescue packages with the IMF). Notwithstanding these measures, it is unclear what consequences there would be in the global financial system if any of the major global financial institutions became insolvent, or what effects such a situation might have on the rest of the financial system.
The current global economic condition may have significant long-term effects on Latin America and Argentina, mainly reflected in the lack of access to international credit, reduced demand for Argentine exports, and significant reductions in foreign direct investment. The realization of any or all of these risk factors, as well as events that may arise in the main regional partners, including members of Mercosur, could have a material adverse effect on the Argentine economy and, indirectly, on our operations, business, and results of our operations.
If prices for Argentina’s main commodity exports decline, such decline could have an adverse effect on Argentina’s economic growth and on our business.
Argentina’s economy has historically relied on the export of commodities, the prices of which have been volatile in the past and largely outside its control. Argentina’s recovery from the financial crisis in 2001 and 2002 has depended to a significant extent on the rise in commodity prices, particularly prices of its main commodity exports, such as soybeans. High commodity prices have contributed significantly to government revenues from taxes on exports. Fluctuations in prices for commodities exported by Argentina and a significant increase in the value of the Peso (in real terms) may reduce Argentina’s competitiveness and significantly affect the country’s exports. A decrease in exports could affect Argentina’s economy have a material adverse effect on public finances due to a loss of tax revenues, cause an imbalance in the country’s exchange market which, in turn, could lead to increased volatility with respect to the exchange rate. In addition, and more importantly in the short term, a significant appreciation of the Peso could materially reduce the Argentine government’s revenues in real terms and affect its ability to make payments on its debt obligations, as these revenues are heavily derived from export taxes (withholdings). This could worsen the financial condition of the Argentine public sector, which could materially and adversely affect the Argentine economy, as well as our financial condition and operating results.
Restrictions on the supply of energy could negatively affect Argentina’s economy.
As a result of prolonged recession, and the forced conversion into Pesos and subsequent freeze of gas and electricity tariffs in Argentina, there has been a lack of investment in gas and electricity supply and transport capacity in Argentina in recent years. At the same time, demand for natural gas and electricity has increased substantially, driven by a recovery in economic conditions and price constraints, which has prompted the government to adopt a series of measures that have resulted in industry shortages and/or costs increase.
The federal government has been taking a number of measures to alleviate the short-term impact of energy shortages on residential and industrial users. If these measures prove to be insufficient, or if the investment that is required to increase natural gas production and transportation capacity and energy generation and transportation capacity over the medium-and long-term fails to materialize on a timely basis, economic activity in Argentina could be curtailed which may have a significant adverse effect on our business.
As a first step of these measures, subsidies on energy tariffs are being withdrawn to industries and high income consumers. As a result, our operating costs may increase.
Risks Relating to Brazil
The Brazilian government has exercised and continues to exercise influence over the Brazilian economy, which together with Brazil’s historically volatile political and economic conditions could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Our business is dependent to a large extent on the economic conditions in Brazil. As of June 30, 2011 we consolidated our financial statements with our affiliate BrasilAgro-Companhia Brasileira de Propiedades Agricolas (“BrasilAgro”).
Historically, the Brazilian government has changed monetary, credit, tariff, and other policies to influence the course of Brazil’s economy. Such government actions have included increases in interest rates, changes in tax policies, price controls, currency devaluations, as well as other measures such as imposing exchange controls and limits on imports and exports.
- 14 -

Our operations in Brazil may be adversely affected by changes in public policy at federal, state and municipal levels with respect to public tariffs and exchange controls, as well as other factors, such as:

| • | fluctuation in exchange rates in Brazil;
| • | monetary policy;
| • | exchange controls and restrictions on remittances outside Brazil, such as those which were imposed on such remittances (including dividends) in 1989 and early 1990;
| • | inflation in Brazil;
| • | interest rates;
| • | liquidity of the Brazilian financial, capital and lending markets;

Actions of the Brazilian government in the future could have a significant effect on economic conditions in Brazil, which could adversely affect private sector companies such as our subsidiary BrasilAgro, and thus, could adversely affect us.
Although inflation in Brazil has stabilized in the past years, an increase in inflation could adversely affect the operations of BrasilAgro which could adversely impact our financial condition and results of operations.
Brazil has experienced high and generally unpredictable rates of inflation in the past. Inflation itself, as well as governmental policies to combat inflation, has had significant negative effects on the Brazilian economy in general. Inflation, government efforts to control inflation and public speculation about future governmental actions have had, and can be expected to continue to have, significant impact on the Brazilian economy and on our operations in Brazil. As measured by the Brazilian Índice Nacional de Preços ao Consumidor (National Consumer Price Index), or INPC, inflation in Brazil was 5.2%, 6.5%, 3.5%,6.5% and 6,1% in 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively. We cannot assure you that levels of inflation in Brazil will not increase in future years having a material adverse effect on our business, on the financial condition or, the results of operations. Inflationary pressures may lead to government intervention in the economy, including the introduction of government policies that could adversely affect the results of operations of BrasilAgro.
The Brazilian real is subject to depreciation and exchange rate volatility which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Brazil’s rate of inflation and the government’s actions to combat inflation have also affected the exchange rate between the real and the U.S. dollar. As a result of inflationary pressures, the Brazilian currency has been devalued periodically during the last four decades. Throughout this period, the Brazilian federal government has implemented various economic plans and utilized a number of exchange rate policies, including sudden devaluations, periodic devaluations (during which the frequency of adjustments has ranged from daily to monthly), floating exchange rate systems, exchange controls and dual exchange rate markets. During 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011, the real appreciated 16.5%, (30.1%), 24.9% , 4.6% and (13,3)%, respectively, against the U.S. dollar. In the six months ended June 30, 2012, the real depreciated 7,4% against the U.S. dollar. There can be no assurance that the rate of exchange between the real and the dollar will not fluctuate significantly in the future. In the event of a devaluation of the real, the financial condition and results of operations of our Brazilian subsidiary could be adversely affected.
Depreciation of the real relative to the U.S. dollar may increase the cost of servicing foreign currency-denominated debt that our subsidiary may incur in the future, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, depreciation of the real creates additional inflationary pressures in Brazil that may adversely affect our results of operations. Depreciation generally curtails access to international capital markets and may prompt government intervention. It also reduces the U.S. dollar value of BrasilAgro’s revenues, distributions and dividends, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the market price of our common shares. On the other hand, the appreciation of the real against the U.S. dollar may lead to the deterioration of Brazil’s public accounts and balance of payments, as well as to lower economic growth from exports, which could impact the results of our subsidiary BrasilAgro.
The Brazilian government imposes certain restrictions on currency conversions and remittances abroad which could affect the timing and amount of any dividend or other payment we receive.
Brazilian law guarantees foreign shareholders of Brazilian companies the right to repatriate their invested capital and to receive all dividends in foreign currency provided that their investment is registered with the Banco Central do Brazil, or the Brazilian Central Bank. We registered our investment in BrasilAgro with the Brazilian Central Bank on April 28, 2006. Although dividend payments related to profits obtained subsequent to April 28, 2006 are not subject to income tax, if the sum of repatriated capital and invested capital exceeds the investment amount registered with the Brazilian Central Bank, repatriated capital is subject to a capital gains tax of 15%. There can be no assurance that the Brazilian government will not impose additional restrictions or modify existing regulations that would have an adverse effect on an investor’s ability to repatriate funds from Brazil nor can there be any assurance of the timing or duration of such restrictions, if imposed in the future.
Widespread uncertainties, corruption and fraud relating to ownership of real estate may adversely affect our business.
There are widespread uncertainties, corruption and fraud relating to title ownership of real estate in Brazil. In Brazil, ownership of real property is conveyed through filing of deeds before the relevant land registry. In certain cases, land registry recording errors, including duplicate and/or fraudulent entries, and deed challenges frequently occur, leading to judicial actions. Property disputes over title ownership are frequent, and, as a result, there is a risk that errors, fraud or challenges could adversely affect us, causing the loss of all or substantially all of our properties.
In addition, our land may be subject to expropriation by the Brazilian government. An expropriation could materially impair the normal use of our lands or have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. In addition, social movements, such as Movimento dos Trabalhadores Rurais Sem Terra and Comissão Pastoral da Terra, are active in Brazil. Such movements advocate land reform and mandatory property redistribution by the government. Land invasions and occupations of rural areas by a large number of individuals is common practice for these movements, and, in certain areas, including some of those in which we are likely to invest, police protection and effective eviction proceedings are not available to land owners. As a result, we cannot give you any assurance that our properties will not be subject to invasion or occupation by these groups. A land invasion or occupation could materially impair the normal use of our lands or have a material adverse effect on us or the value of our common shares or ADRs.

The lack of efficient transportation, and adequate storage or handling facilities in certain of the regions in which we operate may have a material adverse effect on our business.
One of the principal disadvantages of the agriculture industry in some of the regions where we operate is that they are located a long distance from major ports in some cases, nearly 1,500 kilometers. Efficient access to transportation infrastructure and ports is critical to the profitability in the agricultural industry. Furthermore, as part of our business strategy, we intend to acquire and develop land in specific areas where existing transportation is poor. A substantial portion of agricultural production in certain of the regions where we operate is currently transported by truck, a means of transportation significantly more expensive than the rail transportation available to the U.S. and other international producers. As a result, we may be unable to obtain efficient transportation to make our production reach our most important markets in a cost-effective manner, if at all, which could have an adverse effect on our business and results of our operations.
Risks Relating to Our Region
Our business is dependent on economic conditions in the countries where we operate or intend to operate.
We made investments in farmland in Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Bolivia and we may possibly make investments in other countries in and outside Latin America. Because demand for livestock and agricultural products usually is correlated to economic conditions prevailing in the local market, which in turn is dependent on the macroeconomic condition of the country in which the market is located, our financial condition and results of operations are, to a considerable extent, dependent upon political and economic conditions prevailing from time to time in the countries where we operate. Latin American countries have historically experienced uneven periods of economic growth, as well as recession, periods of high inflation and economic instability. Certain countries have experienced severe economic crises, which may still have future effects. As a result, governments may not have the financial resources necessary to implement reforms and foster growth. Any of these adverse economic conditions could have a material adverse effect on our business.
In the past year, the world’s economy experienced the effects of the crisis that unfolded in mid 2008 as a result of the disruption of the United States’ subprime mortgage market. Though there has been some recovery, an interruption of such recovery may have an impact on the economic conditions difficult to predict. Triggering a less favorable or an unfavorable international environment for the countries where we operate or intend to operate, forcing domestic policy adjustments, which could cause adverse economic conditions and adversely affect our business.
We face the risk of political and economic crises, instability, terrorism, civil strife, expropriation and other risks of doing business in emerging markets.
In addition to Argentina and Brazil, we conduct or intend to conduct our operations in other Latin-American countries. Economic and political developments in these countries, including future economic changes or crises (such as inflation or recession), government deadlock, political instability, terrorism, civil strife, changes in laws and regulations, expropriation or nationalization of property, and exchange controls could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Although economic conditions in one country may differ significantly from another country, we cannot assure that events in one country alone will not adversely affect our business or the market value of, or market for, our shares or ADRs.
Governments in the countries where we operate or intend to operate exercise significant influence over their economies.
Emerging market governments, including governments in the countries where we operate, frequently intervene in the economies of their respective countries and occasionally make significant changes in policy and regulations. Governmental actions to control inflation and other policies and regulations have often involved, among other measures, price controls, currency devaluations, capital controls and limits on imports. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be adversely affected by changes in government policies or regulations, including factors, such as:

| • | exchange rates and exchange control policies;
| • | inflation rates;
| • | interest rates;
| • | tariff and inflation control policies;
| • | import duties on information technology equipment;
| • | liquidity of domestic capital and lending markets;
| • | electricity rationing;
| • | tax policies; and
| • | other political, diplomatic, social and economic developments in or affecting the countries where we intend to operate.

An eventual reduction of foreign investment in any of the countries where we operate may have a negative impact on such country’s economy, affecting interest rates and the ability of companies to access financial markets.
Local currencies used in the conduct of our business are subject to exchange rate volatility and exchange controls.
The currencies of many countries in Latin America have experienced substantial volatility in recent years. Currency movements, as well as higher interest rates, have materially and adversely affected the economies of many Latin American countries, including countries in which account for or are expected to account for a significant portion of our revenues. The depreciation of local currencies creates inflationary pressures that may have an adverse effect on us generally, and may restrict access to international capital markets. On the other hand, the appreciation of local currencies against the U.S. dollar may lead to deterioration in the balance of payments of the countries where we operate, as well as to a lower economic growth.
In addition, we may be subject to exchange control regulations in these Latin American countries which might restrict our ability to convert local currencies into U.S. dollars.
- 16 -

Inflation and certain government measures to curb inflation may have adverse effects on the economies of the countries where we operate or intend to operate, our business and our operations.
Most countries where we operate or intend to operate have historically experienced high rates of inflation. Inflation and some measures implemented to curb inflation have had significant negative effects on the economies of Latin American countries. Governmental actions taken in an effort to curb inflation, coupled with speculation about possible future actions, have contributed to economic uncertainty at times in most Latin American countries. The countries where we operate or intend to operate may experience high levels of inflation in the future that could lead to further government intervention in the economy, including the introduction of government policies that could adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, if any of these countries experience high rates of inflation, we may not be able to adjust the price of our services sufficiently to offset the effects of inflation on our cost structures. A high inflation environment would also have negative effects on the level of economic activity and employment and adversely affect our business and results of operations.
Developments in other markets may affect the Latin American countries where we operate or intend to operate, and as a result our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
The market value of securities of companies such as us may be, to varying degrees, affected by economic and market conditions in other global markets. Although economic conditions vary from country to country, investors’ perception of the events occurring in one country may substantially affect capital flows into and securities from issuers in other countries, including Latin American countries. Various Latin American economies have been adversely impacted by the political and economic events that occurred in several emerging economies in recent times. Furthermore, Latin American economies may be affected by events in developed economies which are trading partners or that impact the global economy and adversely affect our activities and the results of our operations.
Land in Latin American countries may be subject to expropriation or occupation.
Our land may be subject to expropriation by the governments of the countries where we operate and intend to operate. An expropriation could materially impair the normal use of our lands or have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. In addition, social movements, such as Movimento dos Trabalhadores Rurais Sem Terra and Comissão Pastoral da Terra in Brazil, are active in certain of the countries where we operate or intend to operate. Such movements advocate land reform and mandatory property redistribution by governments. Land invasions and occupations of rural areas by a large number of individuals is common practice for these movements, and, in certain areas, including some of those in which we are likely to invest, police protection and effective eviction proceedings are not available to land owners. As a result, we cannot give you any assurance that our properties will not be subject to invasion or occupation by these groups. A land invasion or occupation could materially impair the normal use of our lands or have a material adverse effect on us or the value of our shares or ADRs.
We may invest in countries other than Argentina and Brazil and cannot give you any assurance as to the countries in which we will ultimately invest, and we could fail to list all risk factors for each possible country.
We have a broad and opportunistic business strategy and you should understand that we may invest in countries other than Argentina and Brazil including countries in other emerging markets outside Latin America such as Africa. As a result, it is not possible at this time to identify all risk factors that may affect our future operations and the value of our common shares and ADSs.
Risks Relating to Our Business
Fluctuation in market prices for our agriculture products could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
Prices for cereals, oilseeds and by-products, like those of other commodities, can be expected to fluctuate significantly. The prices that we are able to obtain for our agriculture products depend on many factors beyond our control, including:

| • | prevailing world prices, which historically have been subject to significant fluctuations over relatively short periods of time, depending on worldwide demand and supply;
| • | changes in the agricultural subsidy levels in certain important countries (mainly the United States and countries in the European Union) and the adoption of other government policies affecting industry market conditions and prices; and
| • | demand for and supply of competing commodities and substitutes.

Our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected if the prices of grains and by-products decline.
Unpredictable weather conditions may have an adverse impact on our crop and beef cattle production.
The occurrence of severe adverse weather conditions, especially droughts, hail, or floods, is unpredictable and may have a potentially devastating impact upon our crop production and, to a lesser extent, our beef cattle and wool production. The occurrence of severe adverse weather conditions may reduce yields on our farms or require us to increase our level of investment to maintain yields.
According to the United States Department of Agriculture (“USDA”) estimates, Argentina’s crops output (wheat, corn and soybean) for the 2013/2012 season are expected to be slightly better than in the previous cycle. Also according to the USDA, the area sown with soybean will be equivalent to that of the previous cycle, but has estimated soybean output for the 2012/2013 season will be 55 million tons, a 14 million ton increase from the previous season. Regarding corn production USDA reduced its estimates by 4 million tons by poor yields of the current season and the loss of crops.
As a result, we cannot assure you that the present and future severe adverse weather conditions will not adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.
- 17 -

Disease may strike our crops without warning potentially destroying some or all of our yields.
The occurrence and effect of crop disease and pestilence can be unpredictable and devastating to crops, potentially destroying all or a substantial portion of the affected harvests. Even when only a portion of the crop is damaged, our results of operations could be adversely affected because all or a substantial portion of the production costs for the entire crop have been incurred. Although some crop diseases are treatable, the cost of treatment is high, and we cannot assure that such events in the future will not adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.
Our cattle are subject to diseases.
Diseases among our cattle herds, such as tuberculosis, brucellosis and foot-and-mouth disease, can have an adverse effect on milk production and fattening, rendering cows unable to produce milk or meat for human consumption. Outbreaks of cattle diseases may also result in the closure of certain important markets, such as the United States, to our cattle products. Although we abide by national veterinary health guidelines, which include laboratory analyses and vaccination, to control diseases among the herds, especially foot-and-mouth disease, we cannot assure that future outbreaks of cattle diseases will not occur. A future outbreak of diseases among our cattle herds may adversely affect our beef cattle and milk sales which could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.
We may be exposed to material losses due to volatile crop prices since a significant portion of our production is not hedged, and exposed to crop price risk.
Due to the fact that we do not have all of our crops hedged, we are unable to have minimum price guarantees for all of our production and are therefore exposed to significant risks associated with the level and volatility of crop prices. We are subject to fluctuations in crop prices which could result in receiving a lower price for our crops than our production cost. We are also subject to exchange rate risks related to our crops that are hedged, because our futures and options positions are valued in U.S. dollars, and thus are subject to exchange rate risk.
In addition, if severe weather or any other disaster generates a lower crop production than the position already sold in the market, we may suffer material losses in the repurchase of the sold contracts.
The creation of new export taxes may have an adverse impact on our sales.
In order to prevent inflation and variations in the exchange rate from adversely affecting prices of primary and manufactured products (including agricultural products), and to increase tax collections and reduce Argentina’s fiscal deficit, the Argentine government has imposed new taxes on exports. Pursuant to Resolution No. 11/02 of the Ministry of Economy and Production, as amended by Resolution 35/02, 160/2002, 307/2002 and 530/2002, effective as of March 5, 2002, the Argentine government imposed a 20%, 10% and 5% export tax on primary and manufactured products. On November 12, 2005, pursuant to Resolution No. 653/2005, the Ministry of Economy and Production increased the tax on beef cattle exports from 5% to 10%, and on January 2007 increased the tax on soybean exports from 23.5% to 27.5%. Pursuant to Resolutions No. 368/07 and 369/07 both dated November 12, 2007, the Ministry of Economy and Production further increased the tax on soybean exports from 27.5% to 35.0% and also the tax on wheat and corn exports from 20.0% to 28.0% and from 20.0% to 25.0%, respectively. In early March 2008, the Argentine government introduced a regime of sliding –scale export tariffs for oilseed, grains and by-products, where the withholding rate (in percentage) would increase to the same extent as the crops’ price. Therefore, it imposed an average tax for soybean exports of 46%, compared to the previous fixed rate of 35%. In addition, the tax on exports of wheat was increased, from a fixed rate of 28% to an average variable rate of 38%, and the tax on exports of corn changed from a fixed rate of 25% to an average variable rate of 36%. This tariff regime, which according to farmers effectively sets a maximum price for their crops, sparked widespread strikes and protests by farmers whose exports have been one of the principal driving forces behind Argentina’s recent growth. In April 2008, as a result of the export tariff regime, farmers staged a 21-day strike in which, among other things, roadblocks were set up throughout the country, triggering Argentina’s most significant political crisis in five years. These protests disrupted transport and economic activity, which led to food shortages, a surge in inflation and a drop in export registrations. Finally, the federal executive branch decided to send the new regime of sliding-scale export tariffs to the federal congress for its approval. The project was approved in the House of Representatives but rejected by the Senate. Subsequently, the federal government abrogated the regime of sliding-scale export tariffs and reinstated the previous scheme of fixed withholdings.
Export taxes might have a material and adverse effect on our sales. We produce exportable goods and, therefore, an increase in export taxes is likely to result in a decrease in our products’ price, and, therefore, may result in a decrease of our sales. We cannot guarantee the impact of those or any other future measures that might be adopted by the Argentine government on our financial condition and result of operations.
The international credit crisis could have a negative impact on our major customers which in turn could materially adversely affect our results of operations and liquidity.
The international credit crisis had a significant negative impact on businesses around the world. Although we believe that available borrowing capacity under the current conditions and proceeds resulting from potential farm sales will provide us with sufficient liquidity through the current economic environment, the impact of the crisis on our major customers cannot be predicted and may be quite severe. A disruption in the ability of our significant customers to access liquidity could cause serious disruptions or an overall deterioration of their businesses which could lead to a reduction in their future orders of our products and the inability or failure on their part to meet their payment obligations to us, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and liquidity.
Government intervention in our markets may have a direct impact on our prices.
The Argentine government has set certain industry market conditions and prices in the past. In order to prevent a substantial increase in the price of basic products as a result of inflation, the Argentine government is adopting an interventionist policy. In March 2002, the Argentine government fixed the price for milk after a conflict among producers and the government. Since 2005, the Argentine government, in order to increase the domestic availability of beef and reduce domestic prices, adopted several measures: it increased turnover tax and established a minimum average number of animals to be slaughtered. In March 2006, the registries for beef exports were temporarily suspended. This last measure was softened once prices decreased. There can be no assurance that the Argentine government will not interfere in other areas by setting prices or regulating other market conditions. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that we will be able to freely negotiate all our products’ prices in the future or that the prices or other market conditions that the Argentine government could impose will allow us to freely negotiate the price of our products.
We do not maintain insurance over all of our crop storage facilities; therefore, if a fire or other disaster damages some or all of our harvest, we will not be completely covered.
We store a significant portion of our grain production during harvest due to the seasonal drop in prices that normally occurs at that time. Currently, we store a significant portion of our grain production in plastic silos. We do not maintain insurance on our plastic silos. Although our plastic silos are placed in several different locations, and it is unlikely that a natural disaster affects all of our plastic silos simultaneously, a fire or other natural disaster which damages the stored grain, particularly if such event occurs shortly after harvesting, could have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.
- 18 -

Worldwide competition in the markets for our products could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
We experience substantial worldwide competition in each of our markets and in many of our product lines. The market for cereals, oil seeds and by-products is highly competitive and also sensitive to changes in industry capacity, producer inventories and cyclical changes in the world’s economies, any of which may significantly affect the selling prices of our products and thereby our profitability. Argentina is more competitive in the oilseed market than in the market for cereals. Due to the fact that many of our products are agricultural commodities, they compete in the international markets almost exclusively on the basis of price. Many other producers of these products are larger than us, and have greater financial and other resources. Moreover, many other producers receive subsidies from their respective countries while we do not receive any such subsidies from the Argentine government. These subsidies may allow producers from other countries to produce at lower costs than us and/or endure periods of low prices and operating losses for longer periods than we can. Any increased competitive pressure with respect to our products could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
If we are unable to maintain our relationship with our customers, particularly with the single customer who purchases our entire raw milk production each month, our business may be adversely affected.
Though our cattle sales are diversified, we are and will continue to be significantly dependent on a number of third party relationships, mainly with our customers for crop and milk sales. In fiscal year 2012, we sold our products to approximately 492 customers. Sales of agricultural products to our ten largest customers represented approximately 43% of our net sales for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. Our biggest three customers are Bunge Alimentos S.A., Brenco Companhia Brasileira de Energia Renovável and Molinos Río de la Plata S.A., represented, in the aggregate, approximately 60% of our net sales in agricultural products, while the remaining seven customers in the aggregate represented approximately 15% of our net sales in fiscal year 2012.
In addition, we currently sell our entire raw milk production to one customer in Argentina, Mastellone Hnos. S.A. For the year ended June 30, 2012, these sales represented approximately 2.5% of our total revenues. There can be no assurance that this customer will continue to purchase our entire raw milk production or that, if it fails to do so, we could enter into satisfactory sale arrangements with new purchasers in the future.
We sell our crop production mainly to exporters and manufacturers that process the raw materials to produce meal and oil, products that are sent to the export markets. The Argentine crop market is characterized by a few purchasers and a great number of sellers. Although most of the purchasers are international companies with strong financial conditions, we cannot assure you that this situation will remain the same in the future or that this market will not get more concentrated in the future.
We may not be able to maintain or form new relationships with customers or others who provide products and services that are important to our business. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that our existing or prospective relationships will result in sustained business or the generation of significant revenues.
Our business is seasonal, and our revenues may fluctuate significantly depending on the growing cycle.
Our agricultural business is highly seasonal in nature. The harvest and sale of crops (corn, soybean and sunflower) generally occurs from February to June. Wheat is harvested from December to January. Our operations and sales are affected by the growing cycle of the crops we process and by decreases during the summer in the price of the cattle we fatten. As a result, our results of operations have varied significantly from period to period, and are likely to continue to vary, due to seasonal factors.
The restrictions imposed on our subsidiaries’ dividend payments might adversely affect us.
We have subsidiaries, and therefore, dividends in cash and other permitted payments of our subsidiaries constitute a major source of our income. The debt agreements of our subsidiaries contain covenants that restrict their ability to pay dividends or proceed with other types of distributions. If our subsidiaries are prevented from making payments to our company or if they are only allowed to pay limited amounts, we will be unable to pay dividends or to repay our indebtedness.
Our principal shareholder has the ability to direct our business and affairs, and its interests could conflict with ours.
As of June 30, 2012, Mr. Eduardo S. Elsztain, was the beneficial owner of 38.79% (on a fully diluted basis) of our common shares. As a result of his significant influence over us, Mr. Elsztain, by virtue of his position in IFISA, has been able to elect a majority of the members of our board of directors, direct our management and determine the result of substantially all resolutions that require shareholders’ approval, including fundamental corporate transactions and our payment of dividends by us.
The interests of our principal shareholder and management may differ from, and could conflict with, those of our other shareholders. Pursuant to a consulting agreement we pay a management fee equal to 10% of our annual net income to Consultores Asset Management S.A., formerly known as Dolphin Fund Management S.A. (“Consultores Asset Management”), a company whose capital stock is 85% owned by Eduardo Elsztain and 15% owned by Saúl Zang, the first vice-chairman of our board of directors. This performance based fee could be viewed as an incentive for Consultores Asset Management to favor riskier or more speculative investments than would otherwise be the case. In addition, as of June 30, 2012 Mr. Elsztain was the beneficial owner, due to his indirect shareholding through us of 66.1% of the common shares of IRSA, an Argentine company that currently owns approximately 95.6% of the common shares of its subsidiary Alto Palermo Sociedad Anónima (APSA) (“Alto Palermo” or “APSA”) whose chief executive officer is Mr. Alejandro G. Elsztain, Mr. Eduardo Elsztain’s brother and our chief executive officer. We cannot assure you that our principal shareholders will not cause us to forego business opportunities that their affiliates may pursue or to pursue other opportunities that may not be in our interest, all of which may adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition and the value of our common shares and the ADSs.
We could be adversely affected by our investment in IRSA if its value declines.
Our investment in IRSA is exposed to the common risks generally inherent in investments in commercial and residential properties, many of which are outside IRSA’s control. Any of these risks could adversely and materially affect IRSA’s businesses, financial position and/or results of operations. Any available returns on capital expenditures associated with real estate are dependent upon sales volumes and/or revenues from leases and the expenses incurred. Besides, there are other factors that may adversely affect the performance and the value of a property, including the local economic conditions prevailing in the area where the property is located, macroeconomic conditions in Argentina and in the rest of the world, competition from other companies engaged in real estate development, IRSA’s ability to find lessees, non-performance by lessees and/or lease terminations, changes in legislation and in governmental regulations (including those governing the use of the properties, urban planning and real estate taxes), variations in interest rates (including the risk of an increase in interest rates causing a reduction in the sales of lots in properties intended for residential development) and the availability of funding. In addition, and given the relative illiquidity of the real estate market, IRSA could be unable to effectively respond to adverse market conditions and/or be compelled to undersell one or more of its properties. Broadly speaking, some significant expenses, such as debt services, real estate taxes and operating and maintenance costs do not fall when there are circumstances that reduce the revenues from an investment.
These factors and/or events could impair IRSA’s ability to respond to adverse changes in the returns on its investments thus causing a significant reduction in its financial position and/or the results of its operations, which could have an adverse effect on our financial position and the results of our operations.

We could be materially and adversely affected by our investment in BrasilAgro.
We consolidated our financial statements with our affiliate BrasilAgro. BrasilAgro was formed on September 23, 2005 to exploit opportunities in the Brazilian agricultural sector. BrasilAgro seeks to acquire and develop future properties to produce a diversified range of agricultural products (which may include sugarcane, grains, cotton, forestry products and livestock). BrasilAgro is a startup company that has been operating since 2006. As a result, it has a developing business strategy and limited track record. BrasilAgro’s business strategy may not be successful, and if not successful, BrasilAgro may be unable to successfully modify its strategy. BrasilAgro’s ability to implement its proposed business strategy may be materially and adversely affected by many known and unknown factors. If we were to write-off our investments in BrasilAgro, this would likely materially and adversely affect our business. As of June 30, 2012, we owned 39.64% of the outstanding common shares of BrasilAgro.
We may be subject to extensive environmental regulation.
Our activities are subject to a wide set of federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to the protection of the environment, which impose various environmental obligations. Obligations include compulsory maintenance of certain preserved areas in our properties, management of pesticides and associated hazardous waste and the acquisition of permits for water use. Our proposed business is likely to involve the handling and use of hazardous materials that may cause the emission of certain regulated substances. In addition, the storage and processing of our products may create hazardous conditions. We could be exposed to criminal and administrative penalties, in addition to the obligation to remedy the adverse affects of our operations on the environment and to indemnify third parties for damages, including the payment of penalties for non-compliance with these laws and regulations. Since environmental laws and their enforcement are becoming more stringent in Argentina, our capital expenditures and expenses for environmental compliance may substantially increase in the future. In addition, due to the possibility of future regulatory or other developments, the amount and timing of environmental-related capital expenditures and expenses may vary substantially from those currently anticipated. The cost of compliance with environmental regulation may result in reductions of other strategic investments which may consequently decrease our profits. Any material unforeseen environmental costs may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or prospects.
As of June 30, 2012, we owned land reserves extending over more than 350,063 hectares that were purchased at very attractive prices. In addition, we have a concession over 109,617 hectares reserved for future development. We believe that there are technological tools available to improve productivity in these farms and, therefore, achieve appreciation in the long term. However, current or future environmental regulations could prevent us from fully developing our land reserves by requiring that we maintain part of this land as natural woodlands not to be used for production purposes.
Increased energy prices and fuel shortages could adversely affect our operations.
We require substantial amounts of fuel oil and other resources for our harvest activities and transport of our agricultural products. We rely upon third parties for our supply of the energy resources consumed in our operations. The prices for and availability of energy resources may be subject to change or curtailment, respectively, due to, among other things, new laws or regulations, imposition of new taxes or tariffs, interruptions in production by suppliers, worldwide price levels and market conditions. The prices of various sources of energy may increase significantly from current levels. An increase in energy prices could materially adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
Our Financial Statements have been prepared under Argentine GAAP and may not provide investors with the information investors would have received if the financial statements were prepared under IFRS.
Our Financial Statements are prepared in Argentine pesos and in accordance with Argentine GAAP. Our Financial Statements under Argentine GAAP may not provide you with the information you would have received if our financial statements were prepared under U.S. GAAP or under IFRS. Publicly available information about public companies in Argentina is generally less detailed and not as frequently updated as the information that is regularly published by or about listed companies in the United States or European markets. Furthermore, there is a lower level of regulation of the Argentine securities markets and of the activities of the investors in these markets as compared to the securities markets in the United States, European markets and certain other international financial markets. Argentine GAAP differs in certain significant respects from U.S. GAAP, SEC rules and regulations, and IFRS.
On March 20, 2009, the FACPCE issued Technical Resolution No. 26 “Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) which requires that companies under the supervision of the Comisión Nacional de Valores to prepare their financial statements in accordance with IFRS as published by the IASB for fiscal periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011, including comparative information for earlier periods. There are the Consejos Profesionales or standard setters in each provincial jurisdiction in Argentina, which have the power to adopt, reject or modify a resolution issued by the FACPCE. The jurisdiction where we are located is the Federal District. On April 25, 2009, the CPCECABA approved Resolution No. 26. The Comisión Nacional de Valores issued Resolution No. 562/09, as amended by Resolution 576/10 formally adopting application of Resolution No. 26 to its regulated entities for fiscal years beginning on January 1, 2012. We will be required to prepare our financial statements in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. On April 29, 2010, our Board of Directors approved a plan for implementing IFRS. We are in the early stages of completing a diagnosis of the principal differences between Argentine GAAP and IFRS.
See “Summary of Certain Differences between Argentine GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)” for a summary of the significant differences between Argentine GAAP and IFRS as it relates to us. We have not quantified the effect any potential change in accounting principles would have on our financial condition or results of operations and therefore can give no assurance that such changes will not have an adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. Such summary does not attempt to identify or quantify the impact of any potential difference between Argentine GAAP, U.S. GAAP and IFRS. You should rely on your own examination of us, the financial information contained in our financial statements and any other information contained herein. You should consult your own professional advisors in understanding the potential differences between Argentine GAAP and IFRS, if any, and how those differences might impact our financial condition and results of operations.

We depend on our chairman and senior management.
Our success depends, to a significant extent, on the continued employment of Eduardo S. Elsztain, our president and chairman of the board of directors, and Alejandro G. Elsztain, our chief executive officer. The loss of their services for any reason could have a material adverse effect on our business. If our current principal shareholders were to lose their influence on the management of our business, our principal executive officers could resign or be removed from office.
Our future success also depends in part upon our ability to attract and retain other highly qualified personnel. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in hiring or retaining qualified personnel, or that any of our personnel will remain employed by us.
The Investment Company Act may limit our future activities.
Under Section 3(a)(3) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, an investment company is defined in relevant part to include any company that owns or proposes to acquire investment securities that have a value exceeding 40% of such company’s unconsolidated total assets (exclusive of U.S. government securities and cash items). Investments in minority interests of related entities as well as majority interests in consolidated subsidiaries which themselves are investment companies are included within the definition of “investment securities” for purposes of the 40% limit under the Investment Company Act.
Companies that are investment companies within the meaning of the Investment Company Act, and that do not qualify for an exemption from the provisions of such Act, are required to register with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are subject to substantial regulations with respect to capital structure, operations, transactions with affiliates and other matters. In the event such companies do not register under the Investment Company Act, they may not, among other things, conduct public offerings of their securities in the United States or engage in interstate commerce in the United States. Moreover, even if we desired to register with the Commission as an investment company, we could not do so without an order of the Commission because we are a non-U.S. corporation, and it is unlikely that the Commission would issue such an order.
In recent years we made a significant minority investment in the capital stock of IRSA, an Argentine company engaged in a range of real estate activities. As of June 30, 2012, we owned approximately 64.2% of IRSA’s outstanding shares. Although we believe we are not an “investment company” for purposes of the Investment Company Act, our belief is subject to substantial uncertainty, and we cannot give you any assurance that we would not be determined to be an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act. As a result, the uncertainty regarding our status under the Investment Company Act may adversely affect our ability to offer and sell securities in the United States or to U.S. persons. The United States capital markets have historically been an important source of funding for us, and our future financing ability may be adversely affected by a lack of access to the United States capital markets. If an exemption under the Investment Company Act is unavailable to us in the future and we desire to access the U.S. capital markets, our only recourse would be to file an application to the SEC for an exemption from the provisions of the Investment Company Act which is a lengthy and highly uncertain process.
Moreover, if we offer and sell securities in the United States or to U.S. persons and we were deemed to be an investment company and not exempted from the application of the Investment Company Act, contracts we enter into in violation of, or whose performance entails a violation of, the Investment Company Act, including any such securities, may not be enforceable against us.
We hold Argentine securities which might be more volatile than U.S. securities and carry a greater risk of default.
We currently have and in the past have had certain investments in Argentine government debt, corporate debt, and equity securities. In particular, we hold a significant interest in IRSA, an Argentine company that has suffered material losses, particularly during fiscal years 2001 and 2002. Although our holding of these investments, excluding IRSA, tends to be short term, investments in such securities involve certain risks, including:

| • | market volatility, higher than those typically associated with U.S. government and corporate securities; and
| • | loss of principal.

Some of the issuers in which we have invested and may invest, including the Argentine government, have in the past experienced substantial difficulties in servicing their debt obligations, which have led to the restructuring of certain indebtedness. We cannot assure that the issuers in which we have invested or may invest will not be subject to similar or other difficulties in the future which may adversely affect the value of our investments in such issuers. In addition, such issuers and, therefore, such investments, are generally subject to many of the risks that are described in this section with respect to us, and, thus, could have little or no value.
Risks relating to our investment in IRSA.
IRSA’s performance is subject to risks associated with its properties and with the real estate industry.
IRSA’s economic performance and the value of their real estate assets, and consequently the value of the securities issued by them, are subject to the risk that if IRSA’s properties do not generate sufficient revenues to meet its operating expenses, including debt service and capital expenditures, their ability to pay distributions to their shareholders and our cash flow will be adversely affected. Events or conditions beyond IRSA’s control that may adversely affect its operations or the value of its properties include:
- 21 -

| • | downturns in the national, regional and local economic climate;
| • | volatility and decline in discretionary spending;
| • | competition from other shopping centers and office, industrial and commercial buildings;
| • | local real estate market conditions, such as oversupply or reduction in demand for office, or other commercial or industrial space;
| • | decreases in consumption levels;
| • | changes in interest rates and availability of financing;
| • | the exercise by IRSA’s tenants of its legal right to early termination of its leases;
| • | vacancies, changes in market rental rates and the need to periodically repair, renovate and re-lease space;
| • | increased operating costs, including insurance expense, salary increases, utilities, real estate taxes, state and local taxes and heightened security costs;
| • | civil disturbances, earthquakes and other natural disasters, or terrorist acts or acts of war which may result in uninsured or underinsured losses;
| • | significant expenditures associated with each investment, such as debt service payments, real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs which are generally not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in revenues from a property;
| • | declines in the financial condition of its tenants and its ability to collect rents from its tenants;
| • | changes in its ability or its tenants’ ability to provide for adequate maintenance and insurance, possibly decreasing the useful life of and revenue from property; and
| • | changes in law or governmental regulations (such as those governing usage, zoning and real property taxes) or government action such as expropriation or confiscation.

If any one or more of the foregoing conditions were to affect IRSA’s business, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
An adverse economic environment for real estate companies and the credit crisis may adversely impact our results of operations and business prospects significantly.
The success of IRSA’s business and profitability of its operations are dependent on continued investment in the real estate markets and access to capital and debt financing. A long term crisis of confidence in real estate investments and lack of available credit for acquisitions would be likely to constrain our business growth. As part of our business goals, IRSA intends to increase our properties portfolio with strategic acquisitions of core properties at advantageous prices, and core plus and value added properties where IRSA believes it can bring necessary expertise to enhance property values. In order to pursue acquisitions, IRSA may need access to equity capital and/or debt financing. Recent disruptions in the financial markets, including the bankruptcy and restructuring of major financial institutions, may adversely impact IRSA’s ability to refinance existing debt and the availability and cost of credit in the near future. Any consideration of sales of existing properties or portfolio interests may be tempered by decreasing property values. IRSA’s ability to make scheduled payments or to refinance its obligations with respect to indebtedness depends on its operating and financial performance, which in turn is subject to prevailing economic conditions. If a recurrence of the disruptions in financial markets presents itself in the future, there can be no assurances that government responses to the disruptions in the financial markets will restore investor confidence, stabilize the markets or increase liquidity and the availability of credit.
IRSA’s investment in property development, redevelopment and construction may be less profitable than we anticipate.
IRSA is engaged in the development and construction of office space, retail and residential properties, shopping centers and residential apartment complexes, frequently through third-party contractors. Risks associated with our development, re-development and construction activities include the following, among others:

| • | abandonment of development opportunities and renovation proposals;
| • | construction costs of a project may exceed IRSA’s original estimates for reasons including raises in interest rates or increases in the costs of materials and labor, making a project unprofitable;
| • | occupancy rates and rents at newly completed properties may fluctuate depending on a number of factors, including market and economic conditions, resulting in lower than projected rental rates and a corresponding lower return on our investment;
| • | pre-construction buyers may default on its purchase contracts or units in new buildings may remain unsold upon completion of construction;
| • | the unavailability of favorable financing alternatives in the private and public debt markets;
| • | sale prices for residential units may be insufficient to cover development costs;
| • | construction and lease-up may not be completed on schedule, resulting in increased debt service expense and construction costs;
| • | impossibility to obtain, delays in obtaining, necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations, or building moratoria and anti-growth legislation;
| • | significant time lags between the commencement and completion of projects subjects IRSA to greater risks due to fluctuation in the general economy;
| • | construction may not be completed on schedule because of a number of factors, including weather, labor disruptions, construction delays or delays in receipt of zoning or other regulatory approvals, or man-made or natural disasters (such as fires, hurricanes, earthquakes or floods), resulting in increased debt service expense and construction costs;
| • | general changes in IRSA’s tenants’ demand for rental properties outside of the city of Buenos Aires; and

- 22 -

IRSA may incur capital expenditures that could result in considerable time consuming efforts and which may never be completed due to government restrictions.
In addition, IRSA may face contractors’ claims for the enforcement of labor laws in Argentina (sections 30, 31 and 32 under Law No. 20,744), which provide for joint and several liability. Many companies in Argentina hire personnel from third-party companies that provide outsourced services, and sign indemnity agreements in the event of labor claims from employees of such third company that may affect the liability of such hiring company. However, several court rulings in recent years have denied the existence of independence in those labor relationships and declared joint and several liabilities for both companies.
While IRSA’s policies with respect to expansion, renovation and development activities are intended to limit some of the risks otherwise associated with such activities, IRSA is nevertheless subject to risks associated with the construction of properties, such as cost overruns, design changes and timing delays arising from a lack of availability of materials and labor, weather conditions and other factors outside of its control, as well as financing costs, may exceed original estimates, possibly making the associated investment unprofitable. Any substantial unanticipated delays or expenses could adversely affect the investment returns from these redevelopment projects and harm its operating results.
The real estate industry in Argentina is increasingly competitive.
IRSA’s real estate and construction activities are highly concentrated in the Buenos Aires metropolitan area, where the real estate market is highly competitive due to a scarcity of properties in sought-after locations and the increasing number of local and international competitors.
Furthermore, the Argentine real estate industry is generally highly competitive and fragmented and does not have high barriers to entry restricting new competitors from entering the market. The main competitive factors in the real estate development business include availability and location of land, price, funding, design, quality, reputation and partnerships with developers. A number of residential and commercial developers and real estate services companies compete with it in seeking land for acquisition, financial resources for development and prospective purchasers and tenants. Other companies, including joint ventures of foreign and local companies, have become increasingly active in the real estate business in Argentina, further increasing this competition. To the extent that one or more of IRSA’s competitors are able to acquire and develop desirable properties, as a result of greater financial resources or otherwise, its business could be materially and adversely affected. If IRSA is not able to respond to such pressures as promptly as its competitors, or the level of competition increases, its financial condition and results of its operations could be adversely affected.
In addition, many of IRSA’s shopping centers are located in close proximity to other shopping centers, numerous retail stores and residential properties. The number of comparable properties located in the vicinity of its property could have a material adverse effect on its ability to lease retail space in its shopping centers or sell units in its residential complexes and on the rent price or the sale price that IRSA is able to charge. IRSA cannot assure you that other shopping center operators, including international shopping center operators, will not invest in Argentina in the near future. As additional companies become active in the Argentine shopping center market, such increased competition could have a material adverse effect on IRSA’s results of operations.
IRSA faces risks associated with property acquisitions.
IRSA has in the past acquired, and intends to acquire in the future, properties, including large properties (such as the acquisition of Edificio República, Abasto de Buenos Aires, or Alto Palermo Shopping) that would increase its size and potentially alter its capital structure. Although IRSA believes that the acquisitions that it has completed in the past and that it expects to undertake in the future have, and will, enhance its future financial performance, the success of such transactions is subject to a number of uncertainties, including the risk that:

| • | IRSA may not be able to obtain financing for acquisitions on favorable terms;
| • | acquired properties may fail to perform as expected;
| • | the actual costs of repositioning or redeveloping acquired properties may be higher than its estimates;
| • | acquired properties may be located in new markets where it may have limited knowledge and understanding of the local economy, absence of business relationships in the area or unfamiliarity with local governmental and permitting procedures; and
| • | IRSA may not be able to efficiently integrate acquired properties, particularly portfolios of properties, into its organization and to manage new properties in a way that allows it to realize cost savings and synergies.

Some of the land IRSA has purchased is not zoned for development purposes, and it may be unable to obtain, or may face delays in obtaining the necessary zoning permits and other authorizations.
IRSA owns several plots of land which are not zoned for the type of projects it intends to develop. In addition, IRSA does not yet have the required land-use, building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations. IRSA cannot assure you that it will continue to be successful in its attempts to rezone land and to obtain all necessary permits and authorizations, or that rezoning efforts and permit requests will not be unreasonably delayed or rejected. Moreover, IRSA may be affected by building moratorium and anti-growth legislation. If it is unable to obtain all of the governmental permits and authorizations it needs to develop its present and future projects as planned, IRSA may be forced to make unwanted modifications to such projects or abandon them altogether.
- 23 -

Acquired properties may subject IRSA to unknown liabilities.
Properties that IRSA acquires may be subject to unknown liabilities for which it would have no recourse, or only limited recourse, to the former owners of such properties. As a result, if a liability were asserted against it based upon ownership of an acquired property, IRSA might be required to pay significant sums to settle it, which could adversely affect its financial results and cash flow. Unknown liabilities relating to acquired properties could include:

| • | liabilities for clean-up of undisclosed environmental contamination;
| • | law reforms and governmental regulations (such as those governing usage, zoning and real property taxes); and
| • | liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business.

Some potential losses are not covered by insurance, and certain kinds of insurance coverage may become prohibitively expensive.
IRSA currently carries insurance policies that cover potential risks such as civil liability, fire, loss of profit, floods, including extended coverage and losses from leases on all of its properties. Although IRSA believes the policy specifications and insured limits of these policies are generally customary, there are certain types of losses, such as lease and other contract claims, terrorism and acts of war that generally are not insured. Should an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occur, IRSA could lose all or a portion of the capital it has invested in a property, as well as the anticipated future revenue from the property. In such an event, IRSA might nevertheless remain obligated for any mortgage debt or other financial obligations related to the property. IRSA cannot assure you that material losses in excess of insurance proceeds will not occur in the future. If any of our properties were to experience a catastrophic loss, it could seriously disrupt its operations, delay revenue and result in large expenses to repair or rebuild the property. Moreover, IRSA does not purchase life or disability insurance for any of our key employees. If any of its key employees were to die or become incapacitated, it would experience losses caused by a disruption in its operations which will not be covered by insurance, and this could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, IRSA cannot assure you that it will be able to renew its insurance coverage in an adequate amount or at reasonable prices. Insurance companies may no longer offer coverage against certain types of losses, such as losses due to terrorist acts and mold, or, if offered, these types of insurance may be prohibitively expensive.
IRSA’s dependence on rental income may adversely affect its ability to meet its debt obligations.
The substantial part of IRSA’s income is derived from rental income from real property. As a result, IRSA’s performance depends on its ability to collect rent from its tenants. IRSA’s income and funds for distribution would be negatively affected if a significant number of its tenants or any of its major tenants (as discussed in more detail below):

| • | delay lease commencements;
| • | decline to extend or renew leases upon expiration;
| • | fail to make rental payments when due; or
| • | close stores or declare bankruptcy.

Any of these actions could result in the termination of the tenant’s leases and the loss of rental income attributable to the terminated leases. In addition, IRSA cannot assure you that any tenant whose lease expires will renew that lease or that we will be able to re-lease space on economically advantageous terms. The loss of rental revenues from a number of our tenants and our inability to replace such tenants may adversely affect our profitability and our ability to meet debt and other financial obligations.
Demand for IRSA’s premium properties which target the high-income demographic may be insufficient.
IRSA has focused on development projects intended to cater to affluent individuals and has entered into property swap agreements pursuant to which IRSA contributes its undeveloped properties to ventures with developers who will deliver to its units in premium locations. At the time the developers return these properties to it, demand for premium residential units could be significantly lower. In such case, IRSA would be unable to sell these residential units at the prices or in the time frame it estimated, which could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.
It may be difficult to buy and sell real estate quickly and transfer restrictions apply to some of IRSA’s properties.
Real estate investments are relatively illiquid and this tends to limit its ability to vary its portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions. In addition, significant expenditures associated with each equity investment, such as mortgage payments, real estate taxes and maintenance costs, are generally not reduced when circumstances cause a decrease in income from a certain investment. If income from a property declines while the related expenses do not decline, IRSA’s business would be adversely affected. Some of its properties are mortgaged to secure payment of its indebtedness, and if IRSA is unable to meet its mortgage payments, it could lose money as a result of foreclosure on such mortgages and even lose such property. In addition, if it becomes necessary or desirable for it to dispose of one or more of the mortgaged properties, IRSA might not be able to obtain a release of the lien on the mortgaged property without payment of the associated debt. The foreclosure of a mortgage on a property or inability to sell a property could adversely affect its business. In transactions of this kind, IRSA may also agree, subject to certain exceptions, not to sell the acquired properties for significant periods of time.
An adverse economic environment for real estate companies and the credit crisis may adversely impact IRSA’s results of operations and business prospects significantly.
The success of IRSA’s business and profitability of IRSA’s operations are dependent on continued investment in the real estate markets and access to capital and debt financing. A long term crisis of confidence in real estate investments and lack of available credit for acquisitions would be likely to constrain its business growth. As part of its business goals, IRSA intends to increase its properties portfolio with strategic acquisitions of core properties at advantageous prices, and core plus and value added properties where IRSA believes it can bring necessary expertise to enhance property values. In order to pursue acquisitions, IRSA may need access to equity capital and/or debt financing. Recent disruptions in the financial markets, including the bankruptcy and restructuring of major financial institutions, may adversely impact its ability to refinance existing debt and the availability and cost of credit in the near future. Any consideration of sales of existing properties or portfolio interests may be tempered by decreasing property values. Its ability to make scheduled payments or to refinance its obligations with respect to indebtedness depends on its operating and financial performance, which in turn is subject to prevailing economic conditions. If a recurrence of the disruptions in financial markets presents itself in the future, there can be no assurances that government responses to the disruptions in the financial markets will restore investor confidence, stabilize the markets or increase liquidity and the availability of credit.
- 24 -

IRSA’s level of debt may adversely affect its operations and its ability to pay its debt as it becomes due.
IRSA had, and expects to continue to have, substantial liquidity and capital resource requirements to finance its business. As of June 30, 2012, IRSA’s consolidated financial debt was Ps. 2,642 million (including short-term and long-term debt, accrued interest and deferred financing costs).
Although IRSA is generating sufficient funds from operating cash flows to satisfy its debt service requirements and its capacity to obtain new financing is adequate given the current availability of credit lines with the banks, IRSA cannot assure you that it will maintain such cash flow and adequate financial capacity in the future.
The fact that we are leveraged may affect our ability to refinance existing debt or borrow additional funds to finance working capital, acquisitions and capital expenditures. In addition, the recent disruptions in the global financial markets, including the bankruptcy and restructuring of major financial institutions, may adversely impact our ability to refinance existing debt and the availability and cost of credit in the future. In such conditions, access to equity and debt financing options may be restricted and it may be uncertain how long these circumstances last.
This would require IRSA to allocate a substantial portion of cash flow to repay principal and interest, thereby reducing the amount of money available to invest in operations, including acquisitions and capital expenditures. Its leverage could also affect its competitiveness and limit its ability to react to changes in market conditions, changes in the real estate industry and economic downturns.
IRSA may not be able to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to satisfy its debt service requirements or to obtain future financing. If IRSA cannot satisfy its debt service requirements or if IRSA default on any financial or other covenants in its debt arrangements, the lenders and/or holders of its debt will be able to accelerate the maturity of such debt or cause defaults under the other debt arrangements. IRSA’s ability to service debt obligations or to refinance them will depend upon its future financial and operating performance, which will, in part, be subject to factors beyond its control such as macroeconomic conditions (including the recent international credit crisis) and regulatory changes in Argentina. If it cannot obtain future financing, it may have to delay or abandon some or all of its planned capital expenditures, which could adversely affect its ability to generate cash flows and repay its obligations.
IRSA may be negatively affected by a financial crisis in the U.S., the European Union and global capital markets.
IRSA must maintain liquidity to fund its working capital, service, its outstanding indebtedness and finance investment opportunities. Without sufficient liquidity, IRSA could be forced to curtail its operations or it may not be able to pursue new business opportunities.
The capital and credit markets have been experiencing extreme volatility and disruption during the last credit crisis. If its current resources do not satisfy our liquidity requirements, IRSA may have to seek additional financing. The availability of financing will depend on a variety of factors, such as economic and market conditions, the availability of credit and its credit ratings, as well as the possibility that lenders could develop a negative perception of the prospects of its company or the industry generally. IRSA may not be able to successfully obtain any necessary additional financing on favorable terms, or at all.
The recurrence of a credit crisis could have a negative impact on its major customers, which in turn could materially adversely affect its results of operations and liquidity.
The recent credit crisis had a significant negative impact on businesses around the world. The impact of a crisis on its major tenants cannot be predicted and may be quite severe. A disruption in the ability of its significant tenants to access liquidity could cause serious disruptions or an overall deterioration of its businesses which could lead to a significant reduction in its future orders of its products and the inability or failure on its part to meet its payment obligations to us, any of which could have a material adverse effect on IRSA’s results of operations and liquidity.
IRSA is subject to risks inherent to the operation of shopping centers that may affect its profitability.
Shopping centers are subject to various factors that affect their development, administration and profitability. These factors include:

| • | the accessibility and the attractiveness of the area where the shopping center is located;
| • | the intrinsic attractiveness of the shopping center;
| • | the flow of people and the level of sales of each shopping center rental unit;
| • | increasing competition from internet sales;
| • | the amount of rent collected from each shopping center rental unit;
| • | changes in consumer demand and availability of consumer credit, both of which are highly sensitive to general macroeconomic conditions; and
| • | the fluctuations in occupancy levels in the shopping centers.

An increase in operating costs, caused by inflation or other factors, could have a material adverse effect on IRSA if its tenants are unable to pay higher rent due to the increase in expenses. Moreover, the shopping center business is closely related to consumer spending and to the economy in which customers are located. All of IRSA’s shopping centers are in Argentina, and, as a consequence, their business could be seriously affected by potential recession in Argentina. For example, during the economic crisis in Argentina, spending decreased significantly, unemployment, political instability and inflation significantly reduced consumer spending in Argentina, lowering tenants’ sales and forcing some tenants to leave IRSA’s shopping centers. If the international financial crisis has a substantial impact on economic activity in Argentina, it will likely have a material adverse effect on the revenues from the shopping center activity.
- 25 -

The loss of significant tenants could adversely affect both the operating revenues and value of IRSA’s shopping center and other rental properties.
If certain of IRSA’s most important tenants were to experience financial difficulties, including bankruptcy, insolvency or a general downturn of business, or if it simply failed to retain its patronage, IRSA’s business could be adversely affected. IRSA’s shopping centers and, to a lesser extent, its office buildings are typically anchored by significant tenants, such as well-known department stores who generate shopping traffic at the mall. A decision by such significant tenants to cease operations at IRSA’s shopping centers or office buildings could have a material adverse effect on the revenues and profitability of the affected segment and, by extension, on its financial condition and results of operations. The closing of one or more significant tenants may induce other major tenants of an affected property to terminate their leases, to seek rent relief and/or cease operating their stores or otherwise adversely affect occupancy at the property. In addition, key tenants at one or more properties might terminate their leases as a result of mergers, acquisitions, consolidations, dispositions or bankruptcies in the retail industry. The bankruptcy and/or closure of one or more significant tenants, if IRSA is not able to successfully re-lease the affected space, could have a material adverse effect on both the operating revenues and underlying value of the properties involved.
IRSA’s future acquisitions may be unprofitable.
IRSA intends to acquire additional shopping center properties to the extent that they will be acquired on advantageous terms and meet our investment criteria. Acquisitions of commercial properties entail general investment risks associated with any real estate investment, including:

| • | IRSA estimates of the cost of improvements needed to bring the property up to established standards for the market may prove to be inaccurate;
| • | properties IRSA acquire may fail to achieve within the time frames IRSA projects the occupancy or rental rates IRSA projects at the time IRSA makes the decision to acquire, which may result in the properties’ failure to achieve the returns IRSA projected;
| • | IRSA’s pre-acquisition evaluation of the physical condition of each new investment may not detect certain defects or identify necessary repairs, which could significantly increase its total acquisition costs; and
| • | IRSA’s investigation of a property or building prior to its acquisition, and any representations IRSA may receive from the seller of such building or property, may fail to reveal various liabilities, which could reduce the cash flow from the property or increase IRSA’s acquisition cost.

If IRSA acquires a business, it will be required to integrate the operations, personnel and accounting and information systems of the acquired business. In addition, acquisitions of or investments in companies may cause disruptions in IRSA’s operations and divert management’s attention away from day-to-day operations, which could impair IRSA’s relationships with its current tenants and employees.
IRSA’s ability to grow will be limited if it cannot obtain additional capital.
IRSA’s growth strategy is focused on the redevelopment of properties it already owns and the acquisition and development of additional properties. As a result, IRSA is likely to depend to an important degree on the availability of debt or equity capital, which may or may not be available on favorable terms or at all. IRSA cannot guarantee that additional financing, refinancing or other capital will be available in the amounts it desires or on favorable terms. IRSA’s access to debt or equity capital markets depends on a number of factors, including the market’s perception of its growth potential, its ability to pay dividends, its financial condition, its credit rating and its current and potential future earnings. Depending on the outcome of these factors, IRSA could experience delay or difficulty in implementing its growth strategy on satisfactory terms, or be unable to implement this strategy.
The capital and credit markets have been experiencing extreme volatility and disruption during the current credit crisis. The availability of financing will depend on a variety of factors, such as economic and market conditions, the availability of credit and our credit ratings, as well as the possibility that lenders could develop a negative perception of our prospects or the industry generally. Therefore, IRSA may not be able to successfully obtain any necessary additional financing on favorable terms, or at all.
Serious illnesses and pandemics, such as the 2009 outbreak of Influenza A H1N1 virus, also known as the “swine flu”, have in the past adversely affected consumer and tourist activity, may do so in the future and may adversely affect the results of operations of IRSA.
As a result of the outbreak of Influenza A H1N1 during the winter of 2009, consumers and tourists dramatically changed their spending and travel habits to avoid contact with crowds. Further, several governments enacted regulations limiting the operation of schools, cinemas and shopping centers. Even though the Argentine government only issued public service recommendations to the population regarding the risks involved in visiting crowded places, such as shopping centers, and did not issue specific regulations limiting access to public places, a significant number of consumers nonetheless changed their habits vis-a-vis shopping centers and malls. Additionally, the outbreak of Influenza A H1N1 contributed significantly to a decrease in the number of tourists visiting Argentina in 2009. Although there was not an outbreak of AH1N1 influenza in the winter of 2010 and 2011, we cannot assure you that a new outbreak or health hazard will not occur in the future, or that such an outbreak or hazard would not significantly negatively affect consumer and/or tourist activity, and that such scenario would not adversely affect our businesses or IRSA’s.
Adverse incidents that occur in IRSA’s shopping centers may result in damage to our image and a decrease in the number of our customers.
Given that shopping centers are open to the public, with ample circulation of people, accidents, theft, robbery and other incidents may occur in our facilities, regardless of the preventative measures we adopt. In the event such an incident or series of incidents occurs, shopping center customers and visitors may choose to visit other shopping venues that they believe are safer and less violent, which may cause a reduction in the sales volume and operating income of our shopping centers.
IRSA is subject to risks inherent to the operation of office buildings that may affect its profitability.
Office buildings are subject to various factors that affect their development, administration and profitability. The profitability of IRSA’s office buildings may be affected by:

| • | a decrease in demand for office space;
| • | a deterioration in the financial condition of our tenants, which may result in defaults under leases due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity or for other reasons;
| • | difficulties or delays renewing leases or re-leasing space;
| • | decreases in rents as a result of oversupply, particularly of newer buildings;
| • | competition from developers, owners and operators of office properties and other commercial real estate, including sublease space available from our tenants; and
| • | maintenance, repair and renovation costs incurred to maintain the competitiveness of our office buildings.

IRSA is subject to risks affecting the hotel industry.
The full-service segment of the lodging industry in which IRSA’s hotels operate is highly competitive. The operational success of IRSA’s hotels is highly dependent on its ability to compete in areas such as access, location, quality of accommodations, rates, quality food and beverage facilities and other services and amenities. IRSA’s hotels may face additional competition if other companies decide to build new hotels or improve their existing hotels to increase their attractiveness.
In addition, the profitability of IRSA’s hotels depends on:

| • | IRSA’s ability to form successful relationships with international and local operators to run its hotels;
| • | changes in tourism and travel patterns, including seasonal changes and changes due to pandemic outbreaks, such as the AH1N1 virus; or weather phenomenon or other natural events, such as the eruption of the Puyehué volcano in June 2011;
| • | affluence of tourists, which can be affected by a slowdown in global economy; and
| • | taxes and governmental regulations affecting wages, prices, interest rates, construction procedures and costs.

An uninsured loss or a loss that exceeds the policies on IRSA’s properties could subject IRSA to lost capital or revenue on those properties.
Under the terms and conditions of the leases currently in force on IRSA’s properties, tenants are required to indemnify and hold IRSA harmless from liabilities resulting from injury to persons, or property, on or off the premises, due to activities conducted on the properties, except for claims arising from our negligence or intentional misconduct or that of its agents.
Tenants are generally required, at the tenant’s expense, to obtain and keep in full force during the term of the lease, liability and property damage insurance policies. In addition, IRSA cannot assure the holders that the tenants will properly maintain their insurance policies or have the ability to pay the deductibles.
Should a loss occur that is uninsured or in an amount exceeding the combined aggregate limits for the policies noted above, or in the event of a loss that is subject to a substantial deductible under an insurance policy, IRSA could lose all or part of its capital invested in, and anticipated revenue from, one or more of the properties, which could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.
IRSA’s business is subject to extensive regulation and additional regulations may be imposed in the future.
The activities of IRSA are subject to federal, state and municipal laws, and to regulations, authorizations and licenses required with respect to construction, zoning, use of the soil, environmental protection and historical patrimony, consumer protection and other requirements, all of which affect its ability to acquire land, buildings and shopping centers, develop and build projects and negotiate with customers. In addition, companies in this industry are subject to increasing tax rates, the creation of new taxes and changes in the taxation regime. IRSA is required to obtain licenses and authorizations with different governmental authorities in order to carry out our projects. Maintaining its licenses and authorizations can be a costly provision. In the case of non-compliance with such laws, regulations, licenses and authorizations, IRSA may face fines, project shutdowns, and cancellation of licenses and revocation of authorizations.
In addition, public authorities may issue new and stricter standards, or enforce or construe existing laws and regulations in a more restrictive manner, which may force us to make expenditures to comply with such new rules. Development activities are also subject to risks relating to potential delays in obtaining or an inability to obtain all necessary zoning, environmental, land-use, development, building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations. Any such delays or failures to obtain such government approvals may have an adverse effect on IRSA’s business.
In the past, the Argentine government imposed strict and burdensome regulations regarding leases in response to housing shortages, high rates of inflation and difficulties in accessing credit. Such regulations limited or prohibited increases on rental prices and prohibited eviction of tenants, even for failure to pay rent. Most of IRSA’s leases provide that the tenants pay all costs and taxes related to their respective leased areas. In the event of a significant increase in the amount of such costs and taxes, the Argentine government may respond to political pressure to intervene by regulating this practice, thereby negatively affecting our rental income. IRSA cannot assure you that the Argentine government will not impose similar or other regulations in the future. Changes in existing laws or the enactment of new laws governing the ownership, operation or leasing of properties in Argentina could negatively affect the Argentine real estate market and the rental market and materially and adversely affect operations and profitability of IRSA.
Argentine Lease Law No. 23,091 imposes restrictions that limit flexibility of IRSA.
Argentine laws governing leases impose certain restrictions, including the following:

| • | lease agreements may not contain inflation adjustment clauses based on consumer price indexes or wholesale price indexes. Although many of IRSA’s lease agreements contain readjustment clauses, these are not based on an official index nor do they reflect the inflation index. In the event of litigation these provisions may not be enforceable and therefore it may be impossible for IRSA to adjust the amounts owed to IRSA under its lease agreements;
| • | residential leases must comply with a mandatory minimum term of two years and retail leases must comply with a mandatory minimum term of three years except in the case of stands and/or spaces for special exhibitions;
| • | lease terms may not exceed ten years, except for leases regulated by Law No. 25,248 (which provides that leases containing a purchase option are not subject to term limitations); and
| • | tenants may rescind commercial and office lease agreements after the initial six-month period.

As a result of the foregoing, IRSA is exposed to the risk of increases of inflation under their leases and the exercise of rescission rights by their tenants could materially and adversely affect their business and IRSA cannot assure you that their tenants will not exercise such right, especially if rent values stabilize or decline in the future or if economic conditions deteriorate.

Eviction proceedings in Argentina are difficult and time consuming.
Although Argentine law permits a summary proceeding to collect unpaid rent and a special proceeding to evict tenants, eviction proceedings in Argentina are difficult and time-consuming. Historically, the heavy workloads of the courts and the numerous procedural steps required have generally delayed landlords’ efforts to evict tenants. Eviction proceedings generally take between six months and two years from the date of filing of the suit to the time of actual eviction.
IRSA has usually attempted to negotiate the termination of lease agreements with defaulting tenants after the first few months of non-payment in order to avoid legal proceedings. Delinquency may increase significantly in the future, and such negotiations with tenants may not be as successful as they have been in the past. Moreover, new Argentine laws and regulations may forbid or restrict eviction proceedings, and in such case, they would likely have a material and adverse effect on IRSA’s financial condition and results of operation.
IRSA is subject to great competitive pressure.
Most of IRSA’s properties are located in Argentina. There are other shopping centers and numerous smaller retail stores and residential properties within the market area of each of its properties. The number of competing properties in a particular area could have a material adverse effect on our ability to lease retail space in our shopping centers or sell units in our residential complexes and on the amount of rent or the sale price that we are able to charge. To date, there have been relatively few companies competing with IRSA for its shopping center properties. However, if additional companies become active in the Argentine shopping center market in the future, such competition could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
IRSA’s assets are concentrated in the Buenos Aires area.
The principal properties of IRSA are located in the City of Buenos Aires and the Province of Buenos Aires and a substantial portion of their revenues are derived from such properties. For both its fiscal years ended June 30, 2010 and 2011, approximately 88% and 85% of IRSA’s consolidated revenues were derived from properties in the Buenos Aires metropolitan area including the City of Buenos Aires. Although IRSA owns properties and may acquire or develop additional properties outside Buenos Aires, it expects to continue to depend to a large extent on economic conditions affecting those areas, and therefore, an economic downturn in those areas could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.
IRSA faces risks associated with the expansion to other Latin American markets.
From 1994 to 2002, IRSA had substantial investments outside of Argentina, including Brazil Realty, which was sold in 2002, and Fondo de Valores Inmobiliarios in Venezuela, which was sold in 2001.
IRSA continues to believe that Brazil, Uruguay and other Latin American countries offer attractive opportunities for growth in the real estate sector. IRSA will continue to consider investment opportunities outside of Argentina as they arise.
Investments in Brazil and other Latin American countries are subject to significant risks including sovereign risks and risks affecting these countries’ real estate sectors. These risks include competition by well-established as well as new developers, unavailability of financing or financing on terms that are not acceptable to us, exchange rate fluctuations, lack of liquidity in the market, rising construction costs and inflation, extensive and potentially increasing regulation and bureaucratic procedures for obtaining permits and authorizations, political and economic instability that may result in sharp shifts in demand for properties, risks of default in payment and difficulty evicting defaulting tenants.
Recently, IRSA has acquired a property in Partido de la Costa, Department of Canelones, Uruguay, near Montevideo, where it plans to develop a real estate housing units and commercial premises.
IRSA faces risks associated with its expansion in the United States.
On July 2, 2008, IRSA acquired a 30% interest in Metropolitan, a limited liability company organized under the laws of Delaware, United States of America. During fiscal year 2011, as a result of certain negotiations, an agreement was reached to restructure Metropolitan’s debt. Following such closing, we indirectly hold 49% of New Lipstick LLC, a holding company that is owner of Metropolitan. Metropolitan’s main asset is the Lipstick Building, a 34-story building located on Third Avenue between 53rd and 54th streets in Manhattan, New York City. Metropolitan has incurred mortgage debt in connection with the Lipstick Building. For more information about Metropolitan, please see “International Investments”.
Since August 2009 IRSA acquired and subsequently sold part of it’s equity interests in Hersha, therefore, as of June 30, 2012 IRSA’s share was 9.13%. Hersha’s main assets are hotels, most of them located on the east coast of the United States. As of June 30, 2012, Hersha was the holder of an indirect controlling interest in 56 hotels. For more information on Hersha, see "Business-International ".
In December 2010, IRSA, through Rigby 183 LLC, in which it indirectly holds a 49% equity interest through IMadison LLC, jointly with other partners,
acquired a building located at 183 Madison Avenue, Midtown South, Manhattan, New York. On August 31, 2012, IRSA agreed to purchase to Rigby Madison LLC’s the 33.36% equity interest it holds in Rigby 183 LLC. As a result of this transaccion IRSA interest in Rigby 183 will increase to 82.36% of its capital stock. For more information on Rigby, see“Recent Development”.
In March 2012, IRSA, through its subsidiary Real Estate Strategies, L.P., in which it holds a 66.8% interest, consummated the transaction for the acquisition of 3,000,000 Series C convertible preferred shares issued by Supertel Hospitality Inc. (SHI) in an aggregate amount of US$ 30,000,000. Such preferred shares will bear an annual 6.25% preferred dividend and will carry the same voting rights as common shares. For more information on Supertel, see "Business-International ".
The U.S. markets have recently experienced extreme dislocations and a severe contraction in available liquidity globally as important segments of the credit markets were frozen. Global financial markets have been disrupted by, among other things, volatility in securities prices, rating downgrades and declining valuations, and this disruption has been acute in real estate and related markets. This disruption has lead to a decline in business and consumer confidence and increased unemployment and has precipitated an economic recession around the globe. As a consequence, owners and operators of commercial real estate, including hotels and resorts, and commercial real estate properties such as offices, have experienced dramatic declines in property values and may continue to experience declines in business and real estate values in the U.S. or elsewhere. IRSA is unable to predict the likely duration or severity of the effects of the disruption in financial markets and adverse economic conditions and the effects they may have on their business, financial condition and results of operations.

If the bankruptcy of Inversora Dársena Norte S.A. is extended to our subsidiary Puerto Retiro, we will likely lose a significant investment in a unique waterfront land reserve in the City of Buenos Aires.
On November 18, 1997, in connection with the acquisition of our subsidiary Inversora Bolívar S.A. (“Inversora Bolívar”), we indirectly acquired 35.2% of the capital stock of Puerto Retiro. Inversora Bolívar had purchased such shares of Puerto Retiro from Redona Investments Ltd. N.V. in 1996. In 1999, we, through Inversora Bolívar, increased our interest in Puerto Retiro to 50.0% of its capital stock. On April 18, 2000, Puerto Retiro received notice of a complaint filed by the Argentine government, through the Ministry of Defense, seeking to extend the bankruptcy of Inversora Dársena Norte S.A. (“Indarsa”). Upon filing of the complaint, the bankruptcy court issued an order restraining the ability of Puerto Retiro to dispose of, in any manner, the real property it had purchased in 1993 from Tandanor S.A. (“Tandanor”). Puerto Retiro appealed the restraining order which was confirmed by the court on December 14, 2000.
In 1991, Indarsa purchased 90% of Tandanor, a formerly government-owned company, which owned a large piece of land near Puerto Madero of approximately 8 hectares, divided into two spaces: Planta 1 and 2. After the purchase of Tandanor by Indarsa, in June 1993 Tandanor sold “Planta 1” to Puerto Retiro, for a sum of US$18 million pursuant to a valuation performed by J.L. Ramos, a well-known real estate brokerage firm in Argentina. Indarsa failed to pay to the Argentine government the outstanding price for its purchase of the stock of Tandanor. As a result, the Ministry of Defense requested the bankruptcy of Indarsa. Since the only asset of Indarsa was its holding in Tandanor, the Argentine government is seeking to extend Indarsa’s bankruptcy to the companies or individuals which, according to its view, acted as a single economic group. In particular, the Argentine government has requested the extension of the bankruptcy to Puerto Retiro, which acquired Planta 1 from Tandanor.
The time for producing evidence in relation to these legal proceeding has expired. The parties have submitted their closing arguments and are awaiting a final judgment. However, the judge has delayed his decision until a final judgment in the criminal proceedings against the former Defense Minister and former directors of Indarsa has been delivered. It should be noticed, regarding the above mentioned criminal procedure that on February 23, 2011, it was resolved to declare its expiration, and to dismiss certain defendants. However, this resolution is not final because it was appealed. IRSA cannot give any assurance that it will prevail in this proceeding, and if the plaintiff’s claim is upheld by the courts, all of the assets of Puerto Retiro would likely be used to pay Indarsa’s debts and our investment in Puerto Retiro, valued at Ps. 54.3 million, as of June 30, 2012, would be lost.
Property ownership through joint ventures or minority participation may limit our ability to act exclusively in our interest.
IRSA develops and acquire properties in joint ventures with other persons or entities when we believe circumstances warrant the use of such structures. For example, in our Shopping Center segment, as of June 30, 2012, IRSA owned approximately 95.6% of Alto Palermo. Through its subsidiary Alto Palermo, we own 80% of Panamerican Mall S.A., while another 20% is owned by Centro Comercial Panamericano S.A. In our Development and Sale of Properties segment, we have ownership of 50% in Puerto Retiro. In addition we have a 100% stake in Solares de Santa María S.A. In our Hotel segment, we own 50% of the Llao Llao Hotel, while the other 50% is owned by the Sutton Group. We own 80% of the Hotel Libertador, Hoteles Sheraton de Argentina S.A. owns 20%. We own 76.34% of Hotel Intercontinental. In the Financial Operations and others segment, we own approximately 29.77% of Banco Hipotecario, while the Argentine government has a controlling interest in it. Finally, IRSA owns a 49% interest in Metropolitan. 49% in a building located at Madison Avenue in New York and 9.3% in Hersha (as of the date of this annual report our interest in Hersha amounts to 8.12%. For more information please see “Recent Development”) and holds voting rights in respect of a 34% interest in Supertel Hospitality Inc. For more information please see “Recent Developments”.
IRSA could become engaged in a dispute with one or more of our joint venture partners that might affect our ability to operate a jointly-owned property. Moreover, our joint venture partners may, at any time, have business, economic or other objectives that are inconsistent with our objectives, including objectives that relate to the timing and terms of any sale or refinancing of a property. For example, the approval of certain of the other investors is required with respect to operating budgets and refinancing, encumbering, expanding or selling any of these properties. In some instances, our joint venture partners may have competing interests in our markets that could create conflicts of interest. If the objectives of our joint venture partners are inconsistent with our own objectives, we will not be able to act exclusively in our interests.
If one or more of the investors in any of our jointly owned properties were to experience financial difficulties, including bankruptcy, insolvency or a general downturn of business, there could be an adverse effect on the relevant property or properties and in turn, on our financial performance. Should a joint venture partner be declared bankrupt, we could become liable for our partner’s share of joint venture liabilities.
Dividend restrictions in IRSA’s subsidiaries’ debt agreements may adversely affect it.
IRSA has subsidiaries and an important source of funds for it are cash dividends and other permitted payments from its subsidiaries. The debt agreements of IRSA’s subsidiaries contain covenants restricting their ability to pay dividends or make other distributions. If the subsidiaries of IRSA are unable to make payments to it, or are able to pay only limited amounts, IRSA may be unable to pay dividends or make payments on its indebtedness.
IRSA is dependent on its chairman Eduardo Elsztain and certain other senior managers.
IRSA’s success depends on the continued employment of Eduardo S. Elsztain, its Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, who has significant expertise and knowledge of its business and industry. The loss of or interruption in his services for any reason could have a material adverse effect on IRSA’s business. Its future success also depends in part upon IRSA’s ability to attract and retain other highly qualified personnel. IRSA cannot assure you that it will be successful in hiring or retaining qualified personnel. A failure to hire or retain qualified personnel may have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.
IRSA may face potential conflicts of interest relating to its principal shareholders.
IRSA’s largest beneficial owner is Mr. Eduardo S. Elsztain, through his indirect shareholding through us. As of June 30, 2012, such beneficial ownership consisted of: (i) 371,517,973 shares held by us, (ii) 8,998,030 common shares beneficially owned by Inversiones Financieras del Sur S.A., (iii) 628,070 shares held by Consultores Assets Management S.A., and (iv) 1,218,600 shares held directly by Mr. Elsztain.
Conflicts of interest between our management, IRSA and its affiliates may arise in the performance of IRSA’S business activities. As of June 30, 2012, Mr. Elsztain also beneficially owned (i) approximately 37.7% of our common shares and (ii) approximately 95.6% of the common shares of our subsidiary Alto Palermo. We cannot assure you that our principal shareholders and their affiliates will not limit or cause us to forego business opportunities that our affiliates may pursue or that the pursuit of other opportunities will be in our interest in IRSA’s interest.

Due to the currency mismatches between IRSA’s assets and liabilities, it has significant currency exposure.
As of June 30, 2012, the majority of its liabilities, such as IRSA’s 8.5% and 11.5% notes due 2017 and 2020 respectively, Alto Palermo’s Series I Notes and Alto Palermo’s convertible notes are denominated in U.S. Dollars, while a significant portion of IRSA’s revenues and assets as of June 30, 2011, are denominated in Pesos. This currency gap exposes IRSA to a risk of exchange rate volatility, which would negatively affect its financial results if the Dollar were to appreciate against the Peso. Any further depreciation of the Peso against the U.S. Dollar will correspondingly increase the amount of IRSA’s debt in Pesos, with further adverse effects on its results of operation and financial condition and may increase the collection risk of its leases and other receivables from its tenants and mortgage debtors, most of whom have Peso-denominated revenues.
The shift of consumers to purchasing goods over the Internet may negatively affect sales in IRSA’s shopping centers.
During the last years, retail sales by means of the Internet have grown significantly in Argentina, even though the market share of Internet sales related to retail sales is still not significant. The Internet enables manufacturers and retailers to sell directly to consumers, diminishing the importance of traditional distribution channels such as retail stores and shopping centers. IRSA believes that its target consumers are increasingly using the Internet, from home, work or elsewhere, to shop electronically for retail goods, and this trend is likely to continue. If e-commerce and retail sales through the Internet continue to grow, consumers’ reliance on traditional distribution channels such as its shopping centers could be materially diminished, having a material adverse effect on its financial condition, results of operations and business prospects.
Risks relating to IRSA’s Investment in Banco Hipotecario
IRSA’s investment in Banco Hipotecario is subject to risks affecting Argentina’s financial system.
As of June 30, 2012, IRSA owned approximately 29.77% of the outstanding capital stock of Banco Hipotecario (without considering treasury shares) which represented 15.51% of our consolidated assets as of such date. Substantially all of Banco Hipotecario’s operations, properties and customers are located in Argentina. Accordingly, the quality of Banco Hipotecario’s loan portfolio, financial condition and results of operations depend to a significant extent on economic and political conditions prevailing in Argentina.
Financial institutions are subject to significant regulation relating to functions that historically have been mandated by the Central Bank and other regulatory authorities. Measures adopted by the Central Bank have had, and future regulations may have, a material adverse effect on Banco Hipotecario’s financial condition and results of operations.
Laws and Executive Branch Decrees implemented during and after the economic crisis in 2001 and 2002 have substantially altered contractual obligations affecting Argentina’s financial sector. Recently, the Argentine Congress has considered various initiatives intended to reduce or eliminate a portion of the mortgage loan portfolio on the debt owed to Banco Hipotecario. Also, there have been certain initiatives intended to review the terms pursuant to which Banco Hipotecario was privatized. As a result, IRSA cannot assure you that the Argentine legislature will not enact new laws that will have a significant adverse effect on Banco Hipotecario’s shareholders’ equity or that the Argentine government would compensate Banco Hipotecario for the resulting loss. These uncertainties could have a material adverse effect on the value of our investment in Banco Hipotecario.
Financial markets in the most important countries in the world were affected by volatility, lack of liquidity and credit, which entailed a significant drop in international stock indexes, and an economic slow-down started to become evident worldwide. Our management is closely monitoring the effects in order to implement the necessary measures to minimize the impact of the financial crisis on our operations.
Banco Hipotecario relies heavily on mortgage lending and the value of our investment in it depends in part on its ability to implement successfully its new business diversification strategy.
Historically, Banco Hipotecario has been engaged exclusively in mortgage lending and related activities. As a result, factors having an adverse effect on the mortgage market have a greater adverse impact on Banco Hipotecario than on its more diversified competitors. Due to its historic concentration in this recession-sensitive sector, Banco Hipotecario is particularly vulnerable to adverse changes in economic and market conditions in Argentina due to their adverse effect on demand for new mortgage loans and the asset quality of outstanding mortgage loans. In addition, a number of governmental measures that apply to the financial sector have had a material adverse effect particularly on Banco Hipotecario, impairing its financial condition. Please see “Legislation limiting Banco Hipotecario’s ability to foreclose on mortgaged collateral may have an adverse effect on it”.
Accordingly, Banco Hipotecario has adapted its business strategy to confront the challenges of these new market conditions. Banco Hipotecario’s ability to diversify its operation will depend on how successfully it diversifies its product offerings and transforms itself into a financial institution that no longer relies solely on mortgage lending.
In the past years Banco Hipotecario has made several investments that are designed to enable it to develop retail banking activities. Banco Hipotecario must overcome significant challenges to achieve this goal including, among others, its lack of experience and client relationships outside the mortgage sector, the existence of large, well-positioned competitors and significant political, regulatory and economic uncertainties in Argentina. As a result, we cannot give you any assurance that Banco Hipotecario will be successful in developing significant retail banking activities in the foreseeable future, if at all. If Banco Hipotecario is unable to diversify its operations by developing its retail banking activities and other non-mortgage banking activities, the value of our substantial investment in Banco Hipotecario would likely be materially and adversely affected.
Banco Hipotecario’s mortgage loan portfolio is not adequately indexed for inflation and any significant increase in inflation could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition.
In accordance with Emergency Executive Branch Decree No. 214/02 and its implementing regulations, pesified assets and liabilities were adjusted for inflation as of February 3, 2002 by application of the Coeficiente de Estabilización de Referencia (“CER”) a consumer price inflation coefficient. On May 6, 2002, the Executive Branch issued a Executive Branch Decree providing that mortgages originally denominated in U.S. Dollars and converted into Pesos pursuant to Executive Branch Decree No. 214/2002 and mortgages on property constituting a borrower’s sole family residence may be adjusted for inflation only pursuant to a coefficient based on salary variation, the CVS, which during 2002 was significantly less than inflation as measured by the wholesale price index, or WPI. As a result, only 10% of Banco Hipotecario’s mortgage loans are adjusted for inflation in accordance with the CER, 30% are adjusted in accordance with the CVS and 60% remain entirely unindexed. Additionally, pursuant to Law No. 25,796, Section 1, repealed effective April 1, 2004, the CVS as an indexation mechanism applied to the relevant portion of Banco Hipotecario’s mortgages loans. During 2005, the CER increased to 11.75% and the WPI 10.7%, while in 2006 the CER and WPI increased 10.3% and 7.1%, respectively. In 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011, CER increased 7.9%, 6.9%, 11.0% and 9.5% respectively, and WPI increased 8.8%, 10.3%, 14.6% and 12.7%, respectively. As of June 30, 2012 CER increased 5.1% and the WPI 7.5%.

As a result of the high inflation in Argentina from 2002 onwards, Banco Hipotecario’s mortgage loan portfolio experienced a significant decrease in value and if inflation continues increasing, it might continue to undergo a major decrease in value. Accordingly, an increase in Banco Hipotecario’s funding and other costs due to inflation might not be offset by indexation, which could adversely affect its liquidity and results of operations.
Legislation limiting Banco Hipotecario’s ability to foreclose on mortgaged collateral may have an adverse effect on it.
Like other mortgage lenders, the ability to foreclose on mortgaged collateral to recover on delinquent mortgage loans impacts the conduct of Banco Hipotecario’s business. In February 2002, the Argentine government amended Argentina’s Bankruptcy Law, suspending bankruptcies and foreclosures on real estate that constitutes the debtor’s primary residence, initially for a six-month period and subsequently extended until November 14, 2002. Since 2003, the Argentine government has approved various laws that have suspended, in some cases, foreclosures for a period of time in accordance with Law No. 25,972 enacted on December 18, 2004, and, in some cases, temporarily suspended all judicial and non-judicial mortgage and pledge enforcement actions. Several laws and Executive Branch Decrees extended this mortgage foreclosure suspension period. On June 14, 2006, Argentine Law 26,103 was enacted which established a 180-day suspension period for mortgage foreclosure proceedings affecting debtors where the subject mortgage related to the debtor’s sole residence and where the original loan was not greater than Ps.100,000.
Law No. 25,798, enacted on November 5, 2003, and implemented by Executive Branch Executive Branch Decree No. 1284/2003 and No. 352/2004, among sets forth system to restructure delinquent mortgage payments and to prevent foreclosures on a debtor’s sole residence (the “Mortgage Refinancing System”). The Mortgage Refinancing System establishes a trust composed of assets contributed by the Argentine government and income from restructured mortgage loans. Banco de la Nación Argentina, in its capacity as trustee, enters into debt restructuring agreements with delinquent mortgage debtors establishing the following terms: (i) a grace period on the mortgage loan of one year and (ii) monthly installment payments on the mortgage loan not to exceed 30% of the aggregate income of the family living in the mortgaged property. Banco de la Nación Argentina then subrogates the mortgagee’s rights against the debtor, by issuing notes delivered to the mortgagee to settle the amounts outstanding on the mortgage loan. The sum restructured under the Mortgage Refinancing System may not exceed the appraisal value of the property securing the mortgage after deducting any debts for taxes and maintenance. The Mortgage Refinancing System was established for a limited period of time, during which parties to mortgage loan agreements could opt to participate and was subsequently extended by a number of Executive Branch Decrees and laws.
Law No. 26,167 enacted on November 29, 2006, suspended foreclosures and also established a special proceeding for the enforcement of certain mortgage loans. Such special proceedings give creditors a 10-day period to inform the court of the amounts owed under the mortgage loans. Soon thereafter, the judge will call the parties for a hearing in order to reach an agreement on the amount and terms of payment thereunder. In case of failure by the parties to reach such agreement, they will have a 30-day negotiation period, and if the negotiations do not result in an agreement, then, payment and conditions will be determined by the courts.
On November 29, 2006, Law No. 26,177 created the Unidad de Reestructuración, a government agency responsible for the revision of each of the mortgage loans granted by the state-owned Banco Hipotecario Nacional, the predecessor of Banco Hipotecario, before the enactment of the Convertibility Law in 1991. The Unidad de Reestructuración was authorized to make non-binding recommendations to facilitate the restructuring of such mortgage loans. The Unidad de Reestructuración submitted a proposal to the National Congress recommending forgiveness or other write-off of such loans, extensions of their scheduled maturities or other subsidies that were capable of adversely affecting Banco Hipotecario’s ability to foreclose on such mortgage loans. On November 21, 2007, the National Congress enacted Law No. 26,313, establishing a procedure for the restructuring of certain mortgage loans made by its predecessor, the former Banco Hipotecario Nacional. Law No. 26,313 restructures the affected loans by recalculating and reducing their unpaid balance (which had been previously restructured pursuant to a prior law). In December 2008, the applicability of Law No. 26,313 was limited to certain of Banco Hipotecario’s mortgage loans made prior to April 1, 1991 to finance the construction of residential complexes which as of December 31, 2008, had been delinquent since November 2007 or earlier. Therefore, 16,443 loans started to be recalculated, 7,283 of which are in force as of June 30, 2012 amounting to approximately Ps. 213,817. The bank considers that it has sufficient allowances for loan losses to face any possible negative effect resulting from the involved portfolio.
We cannot assure you that the Argentine government will not enact further new laws restricting Banco Hipotecario’s ability to enforce its rights as creditor. Any such limitation on its ability to successfully implement foreclosures could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.
Banco Hipotecario’s non-mortgage loan portfolio has grown rapidly and is concentrated in the low- and middle-income segments.
As a result of Banco Hipotecario’s strategy to diversify its banking operations and develop retail and other non-mortgage banking activities, in recent years its portfolio of non-mortgage loans has grown rapidly. During the period between June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012, Banco Hipotecario’s portfolio of non-mortgage loans increased 62.0% from Ps.908.4 million to Ps.712.0 million. A substantial portion of its portfolio of non-mortgage loans consists of loans to low- and middle-income individuals and, to a lesser extent, middle-market companies. These individuals and companies are likely to be more seriously affected by adverse developments in the Argentine economy than high income individuals and large corporations. Consequently, in the future Banco Hipotecario may experience higher levels of past due non-mortgage loans that would likely result in increased provisions for loan losses. In addition, large-scale lending to low- and middle-income individuals and middle-market companies is a new business activity for Banco Hipotecario, and as a result its experience and loan-loss data for such loans are necessarily limited. Therefore, IRSA cannot assure you that the levels of past due non-mortgage loans and resulting charge-offs will not increase materially in the future.
Given the current valuation criteria of the Central Bank for the recording of government securities on Banco Hipotecario’s balance sheets, its most recent financial statements may not be indicative of its current financial condition.
Banco Hipotecario prepares its financial statements in accordance with Central Bank GAAP which differ in certain material respects from Argentine GAAP. As of June 30, 2012 there are included securities that were not valued according to Argentine GAAP equivalent to Ps. 647.6 million. The impact of valuing these securities in accordance with Argentine GAAP results in a decrease in net assets of Ps. 7.5 million at June 30, 2012.
Due to interest rate and currency mismatches of its assets and liabilities, Banco Hipotecario has significant currency exposure.
As of June 30, 2012, Banco Hipotecario’s foreign currency-denominated liabilities exceeded its foreign-currency-denominated assets by approximately US$ 204.9 million. This currency gap exposes Banco Hipotecario to risk of exchange rate volatility which would negatively affect Banco Hipotecario’s financial results if the U.S. Dollar were to depreciate against the Peso and/or the Euro. We cannot assure you that the U.S. Dollar will not appreciate against the Peso, or that we will not be adversely affected by Banco Hipotecario’s exposure to risks of exchange rate fluctuations.
- 31 -

Banco Hipotecario has acquired and will continue to acquire on a regular basis Dollar futures and other derivatives in order to hedge its exposure to foreign currency and interest rate mismatches of its assets and liabilities.
Banco Hipotecario operates in a highly regulated environment, and its operations are subject to regulations adopted, and measures taken, by the Central Bank, the Comisión Nacional de Valores and other regulatory agencies.
Financial institutions are subject to significant regulation relating to functions that historically have been mandated by the Central Bank and other regulatory authorities. Measures adopted by the Central Bank have had, and future regulations may have, a material adverse effect on Banco Hipotecario’s financial condition and results of operations. For example, on July 25, 2003, the Central Bank announced its intention to adopt new capital adjustment requirements which will be gradually implemented until 2009. Furthermore, the IMF and other multilateral agencies encouraged the Government to impose minimum capital adjustment, solvency and liquidity requirements, in accordance with the international guidelines, which may produce significant operating restrictions on Banco Hipotecario.
Similarly, the Comisión Nacional de Valores, which authorizes Banco Hipotecario’s offerings of securities and regulates the public markets in Argentina, has the authority to impose sanctions on Banco Hipotecario and its board of directors for breaches of corporate governance requirements. Under applicable law, the Comisión Nacional de Valores has the authority to impose penalties that range from minor regulatory enforcement sanctions to significant monetary fines, to disqualification of directors from performing board functions for a period of time, and (in the most serious cases) prohibiting issuers from making public offerings, if they were to determine that there was wrongdoing or material violation of law. Although Banco Hipotecario is not currently party to any proceeding before the Comisión Nacional de Valores, we cannot assure you that the Comisión Nacional de Valores will not initiate new proceedings against Banco Hipotecario, its shareholders´ or directors or impose further sanctions.
Commencing in early 2002, laws and Executive Branch Decrees have been implemented that have substantially altered the prevailing legal regime and obligations established in contract. In the recent past, various initiatives have been presented to Congress intended to reduce or eliminate the debt owed to Banco Hipotecario on a portion of its mortgage loan portfolio and there were initiatives intended to review the terms pursuant to which Banco Hipotecario Nacional was privatized. As a result, we cannot assure you that the legislative branch will not enact new laws that will have a significant adverse impact on Banco Hipotecario’s shareholders’ equity or that, if this were to occur, the Argentine government would compensate us for the resulting loss. Please see “Exchange Rates and Exchange Controls”.
The Argentine government may prevail in all matters to be decided at a Banco Hipotecario’s general shareholders meeting.
According to the Privatization Law and Banco Hipotecario’s by-laws, holders of Class A and Class D Shares have special voting rights relating to certain corporate decisions. Whenever such special rights do not apply (with respect to the Class A Shares and the Class D Shares) and in all cases (with respect to the Class B Shares and the Class C Shares), each share of common shares entitles the holder to one vote. Pursuant to Argentine regulations, Banco Hipotecario may not issue new shares with multiple votes.
The holders of Class D Shares have the right to elect nine of Banco Hipotecario’s board members and their respective alternates. In addition, for so long as Class A Shares represent more than 42.0% of Banco Hipotecario’s capital, the Class D Shares shall be entitled to three votes per share, provided that holders of Class D Shares will be entitled to only one vote per share in the case of a vote on:

| • | a fundamental change in Banco Hipotecario’s corporate purpose;
| • | a change in Banco Hipotecario’s domicile outside of Argentina;
| • | dissolution prior to the expiration of Banco Hipotecario’s corporate existence;
| • | a merger or spin-off after which Banco Hipotecario would not be the surviving corporation;
| • | a total or partial recapitalization following a mandatory reduction of capital; and
| • | approval of voluntary reserves, other than legally mandated reserves, when their amount exceeds Banco Hipotecario’s capital stock and its legally mandated reserves.

In addition, irrespective of what percentage of Banco Hipotecario’s outstanding capital stock is represented by Class A Shares, the affirmative vote of the holders of Class A Shares is required to adopt certain decisions. Class D Shares will not be converted into Class A Shares, Class B Shares or Class C Shares by virtue of their reacquisition by the Argentine government, PPP or Programa de Propiedad Participada (or the Shared Property Program) participants or companies engaged in housing development or real estate activities.
According to the Privatization Law, there are no restrictions on the ability of the Argentine government to dispose of its Class A shares, and all but one of such shares could be sold to third parties in a public offering. If the Class A shares represent less than 42% of Banco Hipotecario’s total voting stock as a result of the issuance of new shares other than Class A shares or otherwise, the Class D shares IRSA hold would automatically lose their triple voting rights. If this were to occur, IRSA would likely lose its current ability, together with our affiliates that also hold Class D shares of Banco Hipotecario, to exercise substantial influence over decisions submitted to the vote of Banco Hipotecario’s shareholders.
Banco Hipotecario will continue to consider acquisition opportunities which may not be successful.
From time to time, Banco Hipotecario has recently considered certain possible acquisitions or business combinations, and Banco Hipotecario expects to continue considering acquisitions that it believes offer attractive opportunities and are consistent with its business strategy. IRSA cannot assure, however, that Banco Hipotecario will be able to identify suitable acquisition candidates or that Banco Hipotecario will be able to acquire promising target financial institutions on favorable terms. Additionally, its ability to obtain the desired effects of past and future acquisitions will depend in part on its ability to successfully complete the integration of those businesses. The integration of acquired businesses entails significant risks, including:
- 32 -

| • | unforeseen difficulties in integrating operations and systems;
| • | problems assimilating or retaining the employees of acquired businesses;
| • | challenges retaining customers of acquired businesses;
| • | unexpected liabilities or contingencies relating to the acquired businesses; and
| • | the possibility that management may be distracted from day-to-day business concerns by integration activities and related problem solving.

Risks Related to Our ADSs and Common Shares
Shares eligible for sale could adversely affect the price of our common shares and American Depositary Shares.
The market prices of our common shares and American Depositary Shares (“ADS”) could decline as a result of sales by our existing shareholders of common shares or ADSs in the market, or the perception that these sales could occur. These sales also might make it difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate.
The ADSs are freely transferable under U.S. securities laws, including shares sold to our affiliates. Inversiones Financieras del Sur S.A., which as of June 30, 2012, owned approximately 37.69% of our common shares (on a fully diluted basis) (or approximately 189,051,574 common shares which may be exchanged for an aggregate of 18,905,157 ADSs), is free to dispose of any or all of its common shares or ADSs at any time in its discretion. Sales of a large number of our common shares and/or ADSs would likely have an adverse effect on the market price of our common shares and the ADSs.
We are subject to certain different corporate disclosure requirements and accounting standards than domestic issuers of listed securities in the United States.
There may be less publicly available information about the issuers of securities listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange than is regularly published by or about domestic issuers of listed securities in the United States and certain other countries. In addition, all listed Argentine companies must prepare their financial statements in accordance with Argentine GAAP and the regulations of the Comisión Nacional de Valores which differ in certain significant respects from U.S. GAAP. For this and other reasons, the presentation of Argentine financial statements and reported earnings may differ from that of companies in other countries in this and other respects.
We are exempted from the rules under the Exchange Act prescribing the furnishing and content of proxy statements, and our officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempted from the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act.
Investors may not be able to effect service of process within the U.S., limiting their recovery of any foreign judgment.
We are a publicly held corporation (sociedad anónima) organized under the laws of Argentina. Most of our directors and our senior managers, and most of our assets are located in Argentina. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon us or such persons or to enforce against us or them, in United States courts, judgments obtained in such courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws. We have been advised by our Argentine counsel, Zang, Bergel & Viñes Abogados, that there is doubt as to whether the Argentine courts will enforce to the same extent and in as timely a manner as a US or foreign court, an action predicated solely upon the civil liability provisions of the United States federal securities laws or other foreign regulations brought against such persons or against us.
If we are considered to be a passive foreign investment company for United States federal income tax purposes, U.S. Holders of our common shares of ADSs would suffer negative consequences.
Based on the current composition of our income and the valuation of our assets, including goodwill, we do not believe we were a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for United States federal income tax purposes for the taxable year ending June 30, 2012, and we do not currently expect to become a PFIC, although there can be no assurance in this regard. The determination of whether we are a PFIC is made annually. Accordingly, it is possible that we may be a PFIC in the current or any future taxable year due to changes in our asset or income composition or if our projections are not accurate. The volatility and instability of Argentina’s economic and financial system may substantially affect the composition of our income and assets. In addition, this determination is based on the interpretation of certain U.S. Treasury regulations relating to rental income, which regulations are potentially subject to differing interpretation. If we become a PFIC, U.S. Holders (as defined in “Taxation United States Taxation”) of our common shares or ADSs will be subject to certain United States federal income tax rules that have negative consequences for U.S. Holders such as additional tax and an interest charge upon certain distributions by us or upon a sale or other disposition of our common shares or ADSs at a gain, as well as additional reporting requirements. See ‘‘Taxation–United States Taxation–Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules’’ for a more detailed discussion of the consequences if we are deemed a PFIC. You should consult your own tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to your particular circumstances.
Under Argentine law, shareholder rights may be fewer or less well defined than in other jurisdictions.
Our corporate affairs are governed by our by-laws and by Argentine corporate law, which differ from the legal principles that would apply if we were incorporated in a jurisdiction in the United States, such as the States of Delaware or New York, or in other jurisdictions outside Argentina. In addition, your rights or the rights of holders of our common shares to protect your or their interests in connection with actions by our board of directors may be fewer and less well defined under Argentine corporate law than under the laws of those other jurisdictions. Although insider trading and price manipulation are illegal under Argentine law, the Argentine securities markets are not as highly regulated or supervised as the U.S. securities markets or markets in some other jurisdictions. In addition, rules and policies against self−dealing and regarding the preservation of shareholder interests may be less well defined and enforced in Argentina than in the United States, putting holders of our common shares and ADSs at a potential disadvantage.
The protections afforded to minority shareholders in Argentina are different from and more limited than those in the United States and may be more difficult to enforce.
Under Argentine law, the protections afforded to minority shareholders are different from, and much more limited than, those in the United States and some other Latin American countries. For example, the legal framework with respect to shareholder disputes, such as derivative lawsuits and class actions, is less developed under Argentine law than under U.S. law as a result of Argentina’s short history with these types of claims and few successful cases. In addition, there are different procedural requirements for bringing these types of shareholder lawsuits. As a result, it may be more difficult for our minority shareholders to enforce their rights against us or our directors or controlling shareholder than it would be for shareholders of a U.S. company.
- 33 -

Holders of common shares may determine to not pay any dividends.
In accordance with Argentine corporate law we may pay dividends to shareholders out of net and realized profits, if any, as set forth in our audited financial statements prepared in accordance with Argentine GAAP. The approval, amount and payment of dividends are subject to the approval by our shareholders at our annual ordinary shareholders meeting. The approval of dividends requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders entitled to vote at the meeting. As a result, we cannot assure you that we will be able to generate enough net and realized profits so as to pay dividends or that our shareholders will decide that dividends will be paid.
Our ability to pay dividends is limited by law.
In accordance with Argentine corporate law, we may pay dividends in Pesos only out of retained earnings, if any, to the extent set forth in our audited financial statements prepared in accordance with Argentine GAAP.
Our shareholders’ ability to receive cash dividends may be limited.
Our shareholders’ ability to receive cash dividends may be limited by the ability of the depositary to convert cash dividends paid in Pesos into U.S. Dollars. Under the terms of our deposit agreement with the depositary for the ADSs, to the extent that the ADS depositary can in its judgment, and in accordance with local exchange regulations, convert Pesos (or any other foreign currency) into U.S. Dollars on a reasonable basis and transfer the resulting U.S. Dollars abroad, the ADS depositary will promptly as practicable convert or cause to be converted all cash dividends received by it in Pesos on the deposited securities into U.S. Dollars. If in the judgment of the depositary this conversion is not possible on a reasonable basis (or is not permitted by applicable Argentine laws, regulations and approval requirements), the ADS depositary may distribute the foreign currency received by it in Pesos in Argentina or in its discretion hold such currency uninvested for the respective accounts of the owners entitled to receive the same. As a result, if the exchange rate fluctuates significantly during a time when the depositary cannot convert the foreign currency, you may lose some or all of the value of the dividend distribution.

All references in this annual report on Form 20-F to this or other internet sites are inactive textual references to these URLs, or “uniform resource locators” and are for your information reference only. We assume no responsibility for the information contained on these sites.
History
We were incorporated in 1936 as a subsidiary of Credit Foncier, a Belgian company engaged in the business of providing rural and urban loans in Argentina. We were incorporated to administer real estate holdings foreclosed by Credit Foncier. Credit Foncier was liquidated in 1959, and as a part of such liquidation, our shares were distributed to Credit Foncier’s shareholders and in 1960 were listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange. During the 1960s and1970s, our business shifted to exclusively agricultural activities.
During 1993 and 1994, Consultores Asset Management acquired on behalf of certain investors approximately 22% of our outstanding shares on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange. In late 1994, an investor group led by Consultores Asset Management (and including Dolphin Fund plc.) purchased additional shares increasing their aggregate shareholding to approximately 51.4% of our outstanding shares. In 1995, we increased our capital through a rights offering and global public offering of ADRs representing our common shares and listed such ADRs on the NASDAQ.
On September 25, 2007, we converted US$12.0 million of IRSA’s convertible notes into 22.0 million of IRSA’s common shares. From July 30, 2007 to November 14, 2007 we exercised 33.0 million of warrants to acquire an additional 60.5 million common share of IRSA for a total cost of approximately US$40.0 million. The term for the exercise of IRSA’s outstanding warrants and the conversion of IRSA’s outstanding convertible notes issued on November 21, 2002 expired on November 14, 2007. Subsequently, from December 1, 2007 to June 30, 2009, we acquired 122,625,854 additional shares of IRSA, increasing our interest to 55.64% as of June 30, 2009. We started consolidating the accounts and results of operations of IRSA as from October 1, 2008.
In March 2008 we concluded a capital increase of 180 million common shares. As a result, 180 million shares offered at the subscription price of US$ 1.60 or Ps.5.0528 per share was fully subscribed, both locally and internationally. In addition, each shareholder received, without additional cost, one warrant for each share subscribed. See Item 9 “The offer and listing - Offer and listing details - Stock Exchanges in which our securities are listed”.
In line with our international expansion strategy, on September of 2005 we participated in the creation of BrasilAgro with the purpose of replicating our business model in Brazil. As of June 30, 2012 we were a direct holder of shares equivalent to 39.64% of BrasilAgro’s outstanding capital stock.
As of June 30, 2012, we have invested approximately Ps. 981.0 million to acquire our current 64.20% equity interest of IRSA. IRSA is one of Argentina’s largest real estate companies. IRSA is engaged in a range of diversified real estate activities including residential properties, office buildings, shopping centers, credit cards and luxury hotels in Argentina. A majority of our directors are also directors of IRSA.
Purchase, sales and barter of properties
The following is a description of the most significant events in terms of acquisitions, divestitures, real estate barter transactions and other transactions which occurred during the years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, divided between our agricultural and real estate businesses:

Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2012
Agricultural Business
Acquisition and sale of land in the Republic of Bolivia
On March 2, 2012, we sold 1,194 hectares of the La Fon Fon property at a total amount of US$ 4.8 million, in respect of which, the payment of US$ 1.1 million has been received. The remaining balance will be paid in seven consecutive semi-annual installments, the next of which expires on November 30, 2012. The possession was granted on June 30, 2012.
Sale of farm San Pedro
On September 28, 2011 BrasilAgro sold a farm known as “San Pedro”, a rural property located in the Municipio Chapadão do Céu – GO with a total surface of 2,447 hectares, 1,724 hectares of which are used for agricultural purposes, for the equivalent of R$ to 580,000 in soy seed bags. The sale is part of Brasilagro business strategy, and seeks to derive both income from agricultural production and gains from the sale of real estate property.
The purchaser made a down payment of R$ 2,250 (equal to Ps. 5,030) and 50,000 tons of soybean and on March 31, 2012 it paid the first installment of R$ 7,519 (equal to Ps.16,836 and 160,000 tons of soybean).The remaining balance will be paid in four annual installments; each expiring on March 30 of each year, for a value equal to 92,500 sacks of soy each. The transaction amount was R$23.3 millions (equal to Ps. 59,8).
The property was acquired in September 2006 and the total invested amount for acquisition and development purposes was R$ 10 million.
As from September 30, 2011, in view of the long-term nature of the receivables, we expect to assess the value of receivables based on the future market price of soy on each installment payment date (or else based on estimates and quotes from "brokers" when there is no pricing in the futures market on the payment due date) and to determine the exchange rate US$/R$ on that same date (insofar as the soy futures price is denominated in US Dollars), so that the resulting value is then discounted to its net present value by using a rate of 8.28% as of June 30, 2012.
The outstanding balance receivable, adjusted based on the present value of proceeds for fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 amounts to R$ 4,358 (equal to Ps. 9,758).

Real Estate Business
La Ribera Shopping – Santa Fe
APSA acquired 50% of the capital stock of Nuevo Puerto Santa Fe S.A., a corporation that leases a building in which La Ribera Shopping was built and currently operates, located at Dique I of the Santa Fe City’s Port. As it is a building under a concession agreement, the purchase of shares of Nuevo Puerto Santa Fe S.A. was subject to the condition that the Santa Fe Port Administration Office approved the change in the company’s capital stock and that the Santa Fe’s Lottery Retirement Fund (Caja de Previsión Social Lotería de Santa Fe) did not challenge it. The execution date of the documents was June 15th, 2011 and the final execution including the referred approval occurred during August 2011.

Paraná plot of land
On August 12, 2010, APSA acquired a 10,022 square meter property in the City of Paraná, Province of Entre Ríos, Argentina for US$ 0.5 million. APSA paid US$ 0.15 million and the remaining balance of US$ 0.35 million will be paid at the time the title is obtained.

Following this transfer, Brasilagro holds 14,572,661 shares and Maeda 7,212,271 shares. This transaction led to an investment loss in Brasilagro's results of operations of R$ 1,135 (equal to Ps. 2,690). On that same date, a decision was made to reduce the capital stock by R$ 12,508 (or Ps. 28,369) by means of redemption and cancellation of 12,508,586 shares. Of this total, R$ 7,775 (or Ps. 17,634) result from a capital reduction to offset against retained deficit by Brasilagro while R$ 4,733 (or Ps. 10,735) were repaid to Brasilagro for they related to capital in excess in relation to Brasilagro’s purpose.

2. Due to the non-performance of the business plan approved on September 22, 2011 and pursuant to the agreement between the parties, the holdings of Grupo Maeda in Jaborandi Ltda. were diluted proportionally to the contribution made.
3. In conformity with the notice sent by BrasilAgro on December 5, 2011, Maeda has lost its right to exercise the warrants issued by the Company.
4. The shareholder agreement of Jaborandi S.A. has been amended so that certain matters which required a special majority for approval, will now require only a simple majority of the voting capital if certain conditions are not met (e.g., if Maeda Group makes no capital contributions as committed within the agreed term).
On May 21, 2012, Brasilagro acquired Maeda’s equity interest in Jaborandi S.A. and Jaborandi Ltda. in the amount of R$ 8,152 and R$ 11,808 (equal to Ps. 19,622 and Ps. 28,457), respectively, thus reaching to a 99.99% interest in such companies.

Supertel controls approximately 101 hotels in 23 states of the United States of America, which are operated by different operators and franchises, such as Comfort Inn, Days Inn, Hampton Inn, Holiday Inn, Sleep Inn and Super 8, among others.
Supertel’s Preferred Shares give the Group the right to receive fix cumulative dividends (i.e. 6.25% per annum) and are convertible into 30 million common shares at a fixed price of US$ 1 per common share. Subject to certain restrictions, they may be exercised in whole or in part at any time until February 2017 at the option of the Group.

However, under no circumstances, the Group can exceed a 34% interest in the share capital of Supertel and/or holds a voting power higher to 34% in Supertel’s Shareholders Meetings.
Even though the Group exercises significant influence over Supertel, neither Supertel’s Preferred Shares nor Supertel’s Warrants give the Group access to economic benefits associated with an ownership interest over Supertel (the Group does not hold any interest over the share capital of Supertel).

Reorganization of Lipstick New York Building
In July 2008, we (through our subsidiaries) acquired a 30% interest in Metropolitan 885 Third Avenue LLC (“Metropolitan”), a Delaware-based limited liability company and ultimate parent company of Metropolitan 885 Third Avenue Leasehold LLC (“Metropolitan Leasehold”). The main asset of Metropolitan Leasehold is a rental office building in New York City known as the “Lipstick Building” and debt related to that asset. The transaction included the acquisition of (i) a put right exercisable until July 2011 to sell a 50% of the interest acquired at the same value paid plus interest at 4.5% per annum and (ii) a right of first offer to acquire a 60% portion of the 5% interest of the shareholding. The total price paid was US$ 22.6 million.
During 2009 and in the context of the financial crisis and shrinkage of the real estate market in New York, Metropolitan incurred in significant losses, which resulted in negative equity mainly due to impairment recognized in connection with the building. Since our share in Metropolitan’s losses exceeded its equity interest; we recognized a zero value on our investment although a liability of US$ 1.5 million was recorded which represented our maximum commitment to fund Metropolitan’s operations.
On November 16, 2010, Metropolitan Leasehold filed a voluntary pre-packaged plan of reorganization under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code including a disclosure statement and a plan of reorganization. The plan provides for, among other things, the extinguishment of 100% of the Parent Company, the Holding Company and the Junior Mezz membership interest in the property owner and issuance of the membership interest in the reorganized debtor to New Lipstick, the new Metropolitan Leasehold holding company.
In December 2010, the negotiations geared towards restructuring the amounts owed under mortgage to Royal Bank of Canada came to a successful conclusion.

The junior indebtedness to Goldman, Sachs & Co., which had amounted to US$ 45.0 million (excluding accrued interest), was cancelled through a US$ 2.25 million payment.
Metropolitan Leasehold will maintain the existing ground leases in the same terms and conditions in which they had been initially agreed upon, for a remaining 66 years’ term. The final consent to this restructuring has already been tendered by all the parties concerned and the closing was consummated on December 30, 2010, as that is when the company New Lipstick LLC, the new Metropolitan Leasehold holding company, made a US$ 15.0 million principal payment as repayment of the newly restructured mortgage debt, thus reducing it from US$ 130.0 million to US$ 115.0 million.

As a consequence of the reorganization, we have indirectly – through New Lipstick – increased our equity interest in the Lipstick Building to 49%. This increase originated in a US$ 15.3 million capital contribution and in the fact that the put option for 50% of the shareholding initially acquired in Metropolitan, which had amounted to approximately US$ 11.3 million plus accrued interest, has been rendered ineffectual. Besides, the above-mentioned commitment, for US$ 1.5 million, ceased to be in effect.

Strategy
We seek to maximize our return on assets and overall profitability by (i) identifying, acquiring and exploiting agricultural properties having attractive prospects for agricultural production and/or long-term value appreciation and selectively disposing of properties as appreciation is realized, (ii) optimizing the yields and productivity of our agricultural properties through the implementation of state-of-the-art technologies and agricultural techniques and (iii) preserving the value of our significant long-term investment in the urban real estate sector through our affiliate IRSA.
- 45 -

Focus on maximizing value of our agricultural real estate assets
We conduct our agricultural activities with a focus on maximizing the value of our real estate assets. We seek to rotate our portfolio of properties over time by purchasing large parcels of land which we believe have a high potential for appreciation and selling them selectively as opportunities arise to realize attractive capital gains. We believe that our ability to realize gains from appreciation of our farmlands is based on the following principles:

| • | Acquiring under-utilized properties and enhancing their land use: We seek to purchase under-utilized properties at attractive prices and develop them to achieve more productive uses. We seek to do so by (i) transforming non-productive land into cattle feeding land, (ii) transforming cattle feeding land into land suitable for more productive agricultural uses, (iii) enhancing the value of agricultural lands by changing their use to more profitable agricultural activities; and (iv) reaching the final stage of the real estate development cycle by transforming rural properties into urban areas as the boundaries of urban development continue to extend into rural areas. To do so, we generally focus on acquisitions of properties outside developed agricultural regions and/or properties that we believe will increase in value due to their proximity to existing or expected infrastructure.
| • | Applying modern technologies to enhance operating yields and property values. We believe there is an opportunity to improve the productivity and long-term value of inexpensive and/or underdeveloped land by investing in modern technologies, such as genetically modified and high-yield seeds, direct sowing techniques, machinery, crop yield optimization through land rotation, irrigation and the use of fertilizers and agrochemicals. To enhance our cattle production, we use genetic technology and have a strict animal health plan, controlled periodically through traceability systems. In addition, we have introduced a feedlot to optimize our beef cattle management and modern milking technologies in our dairy business.
| • | Anticipating market trends. We seek to anticipate market trends in the agribusiness sector by (i) identifying opportunities generated by economic development at local, regional and worldwide levels, (ii) detecting medium- and long-term increases or decreases in supply and demand caused by changes in the world’s food consumption patterns and (iii) using land for the production of food and energy, in each case in anticipation of such market trends.
| • | International expansion. Although most of our properties are located in different areas of Argentina, we have begun a process of expansion in other Latin American countries. We believe that an attractive opportunity exists to acquire and develop agricultural properties outside Argentina, and our objective is to replicate our business model in such other countries which include, among others, Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay and Uruguay. For example, in 2005 we and several Brazilian partners founded BrasilAgro. As of June 30, 2012, BrasilAgro had 8 properties totaling 172,050 hectares, purchased at highly attractive values compared to the average prices prevailing in the respective regions, all of which have a huge appreciation potential. In addition, during the fiscal year 2009, we entered into a number of agreements to formalize its positioning in South American countries. As of June 30, 2012, we owned 31,260 hectares located in the Republic of Bolivia, and 50% of 44,494 hectares located in the Republic of Paraguay.

Increase and optimize production yields
We seek to increase and improve our production yields through the following initiatives:
Implementation of technology.

| • | We seek to continue using modern technology to increase production yields. We plan to make further investments in machinery and the implementation of agricultural techniques, such as direct sowing to improve cereal production. We believe that we may improve crop yields by using high-potential seeds (GMOs) and fertilizers and by introducing advanced land rotation techniques. In addition, we intend to continue installing irrigation equipment in some of our farms to achieve higher output levels.
| • | We seek to continue improving beef cattle production through the use of advanced breeding techniques and technologies related to animal health. We plan to improve the use of pastures and expect to make further investments in infrastructure, including installation of watering troughs and electrical fencing.
| • | We have implemented an individual animal identification system, using plastic tags for our beef cattle and “RFID” tags for our dairy cattle, to comply with national laws on traceability. Also, we acquired software from Westfalia Co. which enables us to store individual information about each of our dairy cows. In the beef cattle business, we initiated Argentina’s first vertically integrated beef cattle processing operation by entering into a partnership with Tyson Foods (“Tyson Foods”) (through its controlled subsidiary Provemex Holdings LLC), to set up Cactus, a feedlot and slaughterhouse operator. During fiscal year 2012 we acquired Tyson Food’s equity interest in Cactus, and at present we are its sole shareholder.
| • | In connection with our milk production, we plan to continue developing our activities through the use of modern technology and advanced feeding and techniques relating to animal health. For example, in May 2007, we opened one of the most advanced dairy production facilities in Argentina, achieving a daily output of more than 40,000 liters of milk.

Increased production.
Our goal is to increase our crop, beef cattle and milk production in order to achieve economies of scale by:

| • | Increasing the land we own in various regions of Argentina by taking advantage of attractive land purchase opportunities as they arise.
| • | Leasing productive properties to supplement our expansion strategy, using our liquidity to make productive investments in our principal agricultural and livestock activities. We believe that leasing enhances our ability to diversify our production and geographic focus, in particular in areas not offering attractive prospects for appreciation of land value.
| • | Developing properties in areas where agricultural and livestock production is not developed to its full potential. As of June 30, 2012, we owned 350,249 hectares of land reserves and held approximately 109,617 hectares under concession, as reserves for future developments. We believe that technological tools are available to improve the productivity of such land and enhance its long-term value. However, current or future environmental regulations could prevent us from fully developing our land reserves by demanding us to maintain part of those lands as natural woodlands not allocated to production.

Diversifying market and weather risk by expanding our product and land portfolio.

| • | We seek to continue diversifying our operations to produce a range of different agricultural commodities in different markets, either directly or in association with third parties. We believe that a diversified product mix mitigates our exposure to seasonality, commodity price fluctuations, weather conditions and other factors affecting the agricultural and livestock sector. To achieve this objective in Argentina, we expect to continue to own and lease farmlands in various regions with differing weather patterns and to continue to offer a range of diversified products. Moreover, we believe that continuing to expand our agricultural operations outside of Argentina will enhance our ability to produce new agricultural products, further diversifying our mix of products and mitigating our exposure to regional weather conditions and country-specific risks.

Focus on preserving long-term value of our investment in our real estate subsidiary IRSA
We seek to maintain the long-term value of our significant investment in the urban real estate sector through IRSA. We believe that IRSA is an effective vehicle to participate in the urban real estate market due to its substantial and diversified portfolio of residential and commercial properties, the strength of its management and what we believe are attractive prospects for future growth and profitability.

| • | Shopping centers. We believe that the Argentine shopping center sector offers attractive prospects for long-term growth due to, among other factors, a continuing evolution of consumer preferences in favor of shopping malls (away from small neighborhood shops) and a low level of shopping center penetration compared to many developed countries. Our main objectives are to generate sustained cash flow growth from our shopping centers and increase their value in the long-term, while maintaining a leading position in Argentina’s shopping center industry by developing new shopping centers in urban areas with attractive prospects for growth, including the Buenos Aires’ Metropolitan area, Argentine provinces and elsewhere in Latin America.
| • | Development and sale of properties. We seek to purchase undeveloped properties in densely-populated areas and build apartment complexes offering green space for recreational activities. We also seek to develop residential communities by acquiring undeveloped properties with convenient access to Buenos Aires, developing roads and other basic infrastructure such as power and water, and then selling lots for the construction of residential units. After the Argentine economic crisis in 2001 and 2002, the scarcity of mortgage financing restricted the growth in middle class home purchases and, as a result, we mainly focused on the development of residential communities for middle and high-income individuals, who do not need to finance their home purchases. In addition, we seek to develop residential properties for other segments of the residential market in Argentina and during the first quarter of the 2000 fiscal year, we entered into a partnership with Cyrela Empreendimentos e Participações, a leading Brazilian residential real estate developer, to penetrate new market segments.
| • | Office and other non-shopping center properties. Since the Argentine economic crisis in 2001 and 2002, there have been limited investments in high-quality office buildings in Buenos Aires and, as a result, we believe there is currently substantial demand for more desirable office spaces. We seek to purchase and develop premium office buildings in strategically-located business districts in Buenos Aires and other strategic locations that we believe offer attractive returns and potential for long-term capital gain. We expect to continue our focus on attracting premium corporate tenants to our office buildings. Furthermore, we intend to selectively consider new opportunities to acquire or construct new rental office buildings.
| • | Hotel operations. We believe our portfolio of three luxury hotels is positioned to take advantage of the future growth in tourism and business travel in Argentina. We seek to continue with our strategy to invest in high-quality properties that are operated by leading international hotel companies to capitalize on their operating experience and international reputation. We also seek to continue to invest in improvements for our hotels, such as the opening of 43 new suites at Hotel Llao Llao in Bariloche, in order to maintain a high level of service in this competitive sector.
| • | Banco Hipotecario. Banco Hipotecario is a full-service commercial bank offering a wide variety of banking activities and related financial services to individuals, small- and medium-sized companies and large corporations. Among these services, Banco Hipotecario stands out as a leader in mortgage loans in Argentina. Since 1999, Banco Hipotecario’s shares have been listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, and since 2006 it has obtained the Level 1 ADR program from the Bank of New York. We currently seek to keep our investment in Banco Hipotecario, as we believe that Argentina has a low level of mortgages outstanding measured in terms of GDP.
| • | Land reserves. We seek to continue to acquire undeveloped land at locations we consider attractive within and outside Buenos Aires. In each case, our intention is to purchase land with significant development or appreciation potential to resell. We believe that holding a portfolio of desirable undeveloped plots of land enhances our ability to make strategic long-term investments and affords us a valuable pipeline of new development projects for upcoming years.
| • | International. In the past, IRSA has made significant real estate investments outside of Argentina, including investments in Brazil Realty S.A. in Brazil and Fondo de Valores Inmobiliarios in Venezuela which we disposed of in 2002 and 2001, respectively. In December 2011, IRSA acquired through a subsidiary, in which it holds a 49% equity interest, an office building located at Madison Avenue in the City of New York. It also has a 49% interest in a US company, which principal asset is the so-called “Lipstick” office building located in the City of New York. In addition, jointly with subsidiaries, we acquired and then partially sold equity interests in a Real Estate Investment Trust, called Hersha (NYSE: HT), which holds a controlling interest in 64 hotels in the United States, totaling around 9,221 rooms. As of June 30, 2012, IRSA holds a 9.13% stake in the company. We intend to continue evaluating -on a selective basis- real estate investment opportunities outside Argentina as long as they offer attractive investment and development options.

As of June 30, 2012, our crop stocks consisted of 6,350 tons of wheat, 86,297 tons of corn, 45,009 tons of soybean, 2,581 tons of sorghum, 3,501 tons of sunflower and 45,819 tons of sugarcane; whereas as of June 30, 2011, our crop stocks consisted of 4,259 tons of wheat, 45,691 tons of corn, 56,707 tons of soybean, 3,114 tons of sorghum, 7,151 tons of sunflower and 45,8 tons of sugarcane. In the season ended on June 30, 2012, the surface area of leased land was 26% of the total sown land.
We seek to diversify our mix of products and the geographic location of our farmlands to achieve an adequate balance between the two principal risks associated with our activities: weather conditions and the fluctuations in the prices of commodities. In order to reduce such risks, we own and lease land in several areas of Argentina with different climate conditions that allow us to sow a diversified range of products. Our leased land for crops is mostly located in the Pampa region, a favorable area for crop production. The leased farms are previously studied by technicians who analyze future production expectations based on the historic use of the land. The initial duration of lease agreements is typically one or three seasons. Leases of farms for production of crops generally consist of lease agreements with payments based on a fixed amount of Pesos per hectare or crop sharing agreements (“aparcería”) with payments in kind based on a percentage of the crops obtained or a fixed amount of tons of grains obtained or their equivalent value in Pesos. The principal advantage of leasing farms is that leases do not require us to commit large amounts of capital to the acquisition of lands but allow us to increase our scale in the short term and reduce the risk of inclement weather. The disadvantage of this strategy is that the cost of leasing can increase over time, in part, because increased demand for leased land increases the price of leased land.
In order to increase our production yields, we use, besides technology, labor control methods which imply the supervision of the seeding’s quality (density, fertilization, distribution, and depth), crop monitoring (determination of natural losses and losses caused by harvester) and verification of bagged crop quality. In this way, we work jointly with our suppliers to achieve the best management of inputs, water and soil.
Wheat seeding takes place from June to August, and harvesting takes place from December to January. Corn, soybean and sunflower are sown from September to December and are harvested from February to June. Grains are available to be sold as commodities after the harvest from December to June and we usually store part of our production until prices recover after the drop that normally takes place during the harvesting season. A major part of production, especially soybean, wheat and sunflower seeds, corn and sorghum, is sold and delivered to buyers pursuant to agreements in which price conditions are fixed by reference to the market price at a specific time in the future that we determine. The rest of the production is either sold at current market prices or delivered to cover any futures contract that we may have entered into.
Beef Cattle Production
Our beef cattle production involves the breeding and fattening of our own animals. In some cases, if market conditions are favorable, we also purchase and fatten cattle which we sell to slaughterhouses and supermarkets. As of June 2012, our beef cattle aggregated 59,435 heads, and we had a total surface area of 83,360 hectares of own lands dedicated to this business activity.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, our beef cattle activities generated sales of Ps. 135.0 million, representing 12% of our total consolidated sales from the agriculture and cattle raising business, and our production was 9,000 tons, an increase of 38.1% compared to the previous fiscal year.
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated below, the beef cattle production volumes:

| Fiscal Year ended June 30,
|  | 2008(1) |  |  | 2009(1) |  |  | 2010(1) |  | 2011(1) |  | 2012(1)
|  | (in tons)
Beef cattle production(2) |  |  | 8,786 |  |  |  | 7,112 |  |  |  | 3,153 |  |  |  | 6,519 |  | 9,000

| (1) | Does not include production from AgroUranga S.A.

| (2) | Production measured in tons of live weight. Production is the sum of the net increases (or decreases) during a given period in live weight of each head of beef cattle owned by us.

Management by lot in our pastures is aided by electrical fencing which may be easily relocated to supplement our land-rotation cycles. Our cattle herd is subject to a 160 kg to 360 kg fattening cycle by grazing in pastures located in our north farmlands, where conditions are adequate for initial fattening. For fattening above 360 kg, cattle are fattened until they reach 430 kg in our San Luis feedlot. The feedlot fattening system leads to homogeneity in production and beef of higher quality and tenderness because of the younger age at which animals are slaughtered.
Our cattle breeding activities are carried out with breeding cows and bulls and our fattening activities apply to steer, heifers and calves. Breeding cows calve approximately once a year and their productive lifespan is from six to seven years. Six months after birth, calves are weaned and transferred to fattening pastures. Acquired cattle are directly submitted to the fattening process. Upon starting this process, cattle have been grazing for approximately one year to one and a half year in order to be fattened for sale. Steer and heifers are sold when they have achieved a weight of 380–430 kg and 280–295 kg, respectively, depending on the breed.
Pregnancy levels, which have been improving over the years, showed satisfactory levels of efficiency notwithstanding the adverse weather conditions. Genetics and herd management is expected to further improve pregnancy levels in the coming years. Reproductive indicators improved due to the implementation of technologies, which have included handling techniques and females artificial insemination with cattle genetics especially selected for the stock which is purchased from specialized companies in quality semen elaboration for meat production. We use veterinarian products manufactured by leading national and international laboratories. It is important to emphasize the work of a veterinarian advising committee, who are external to us and visit each establishment monthly to control and agree tasks.

Currently, the cattle raising farms are officially registered as export farmlands pursuant to the identification and traceability rules in force in Argentina. Animals are individually identified, thus allowing for the development of special businesses in this area.
Our beef cattle stock is organized into breeding and fattening activities. The following table shows, for the periods indicated, the number of head of beef cattle for each activity:

|  | Heads of Beef Cattle (1) |
|  | Fiscal Year ended June 30, |
|  | 2008(2) |  |  | 2009(2) |  |  | 2010(2) |  |  | 2011(2) |  |  | 2012(2) |

| (1) | For classification purposes, upon birth, all calves are considered to be in the breeding process.
| (2) | Does not include heads of beef cattle from Agro Uranga S.A.

We seek to improve beef cattle production and quality in order to obtain a higher price through advanced breeding techniques. We cross breed from our stock of Indicus, British (Angus and Hereford) and Continental breeds to obtain herds with characteristics better suited to the pastures in which they graze. To enhance the quality of our herds even further, we plan to continue improvement of our pastures through permanent investment in seeds and fertilizers, an increase in the watering troughs available in pastures, and the acquisition of round bailers to cut and roll grass for storage purposes.
Our emphasis on improving the quality of our herd also includes the use of animal health-related technologies. We comply with national animal health standards that include laboratory analyses and vaccination aimed at controlling and preventing disease in our herd, particularly FMD.
Direct costs of beef production consist primarily of seeds for pasture (for instance, gatton panic, oats and barley) and crops for feeding and dietary supplementation purposes and animal health costs, among others.
Milk Production
As of June 30, 2012 we conducted our milk business in the dairy facility located in “El Tigre” farm. We have a capacity of 2,600 cows in milking per day and seek to increase total productivity through the application of new technologies including improved genetic management for milk production, feeding strategic planning based on cattle specific requirements and the use of individual traceability to know the productivity history of each animal. Also we use computer science in milk business to make more efficient the manual labor by surveying the information supplied by the farm.
Within the process of de-commoditization and technological innovation, we implemented an identification and tracing system in compliance with European and SENASA standards. We also obtained Global Gap and HCCP certification. Our goal in this respect is to distinguish our production and obtain higher prices in production sales.
Our milk production is based on a herd of Holando Argentina dairy cows, genetically selected through the use of imported frozen semen of North American Holando bulls. Male calves are sold, at calving, for a given amount per head, whereas female calves are weaned after 24 hours, spend approximately 60 days in raising and approximately 100 days being fed on the basis of grass, grains and supplements. Young heifers then graze for an additional 12 to 15 month period, prior to artificial insemination at the age of 18 to 20 months and they calve nine months later. Heifers are subsequently milked for an average of 300 days. Milking dairy cows are once again inseminated during the 60 to 90 day subsequent period. This process is repeated once a year during six or seven years. The pregnancy rate for our dairy cows is 80-90%.
Our dairy herd is milked mechanically twice a day. The milk obtained is cooled to less than five degrees centigrade to preserve quality and is then stored in a tank for delivery once a day to trucks sent by buyers. Dairy cows are fed mainly with grass, supplemented as needed with grains, hay and silage. We have invested in certain technologies that focus on genetic improvement, animal health and feeding in order to improve our milk production. These investments include imports of top quality frozen semen from genetically improved North American Holstein bulls, agricultural machinery and devices such as feed-mixer trucks, use of dietary supplements and the installation of modern equipment to control milk cooling. We are currently acquiring dietary supplements for our dairy cows and have made investments with the aim of increasing the quantity and quality of forage (pasture, alfalfa and corn silage) in order to reduce feeding costs.
The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the average number of our dairy cows, average daily production per cow and our total milk production:

|  | Milk Production |
|  | Fiscal Year ended June 30, |
|  | 2008(1) |  |  | 2009(1) |  |  | 2010(1) |  |  | 2011(1) |  |  | 2012(1) |

| (1) | Does not include production from AgroUranga S.A.

At the closing of fiscal year 2012, we had 6,184 heads of cattle on 3,022 hectares involved in the production of milk; whereas as of June 30, 2011, we had 6,385 heads of cattle on 2,900 hectares.

Land Acquisitions
We intend to increase our farmland portfolio by acquiring large surfaces of land with high appreciation or production potential. We also intend to transform the land acquired from non-productive to cattle breeding, from cattle breeding to farming, or applying state-of-the-art technology to improve farming yields so as to generate higher land appreciation.
In our view, the sector’s potential lies in developing marginal areas and/or underutilized areas. As a result of current technology, we may achieve similar yields with higher profitability than core areas; this may result in the appreciation of land values.
At present, prices of farmlands used in agricultural production have increased in the southern hemisphere (mainly South America) but continue to be relatively low compared to the northern hemisphere (U.S. and Europe). Our financial strength relative to other Argentine producers enables us to increase our land holdings at attractive prices, increase our production scale and create potential for capital appreciation.
Several important intermediaries, with whom we usually work, bring farmlands available for sale to our attention. The decision to acquire farmlands is based on the assessment of a number of factors. In addition to the land’s location, we normally carry out an analysis of soil and water, including the quality of the soil and its suitability for our intended use (crops, beef cattle, or milk production), classify the various sectors of the lot and the prior use of the farmland; analyze the improvements in the property, any easements, rights of way or other variables in relation to the property title; examine satellite photographs of the property (useful in the survey of soil drainage characteristics during the different rain cycles) and detailed comparative data regarding neighboring farms (generally covering a 50-km area). Based on the foregoing factors, we assess the farmland in terms of the sales price compared against the production potential of the land and the appreciation potential of the capital. We consider that competition for the acquisition of farmlands is, in general, limited to small farmers for the acquisition of smaller lots, and that there is scarce competition for the acquisition of bigger lots.
In addition, we may consider the acquisition of farmlands in marginal zones and their improvement by irrigation in non-productive areas as well as the installation of irrigation devices in order to obtain attractive production yields and create potential for capital appreciation.
On May 30, 2008, IRSA signed, as nominee, a bill of purchase with delivery of possession for 115 hectares of a portion of a farm located in the District of Luján, Province of Buenos Aires. The transaction was agreed for a price of USD 3.0 million, USD 1.2 million of which were paid on that date.
On December 13, 2008, the Company was formally recognized as principal of the transaction; the balance of USD 1.8 million will be paid by the Company upon execution of the title deed.
On September 5, 2008, we signed the title deed for the purchase of 10,910 hectares of “Estancia Carmen” farm located in the Province of Santa Cruz. The transaction was agreed for a price of USD 0.7 million, that was paid in full.

BrasilAgro. See breakdown of farms in the section “International Expansion – BrasilAgro Companhia Brasileira de Propriedades Agricolas.”
Lease of Farms
We conduct our business on owned and leased land. Rental payments increase our production costs, as the amounts paid as rent are accounted for as operating expenses. As a result, production costs per hectare of leased land are higher than for the land owned by us.
Our land leasing policy is designed to supplement our expansion strategy, using our liquidity to make productive investments in our principal agricultural activities. On the other hand, our leasing strategy provides us with an added level of flexibility in the share of each of our products in total production, providing for greater diversification.
- 55 -

The initial duration of lease agreements is typically one crop season. Leases of farms for production of crops consist in lease agreements with payments based on a fixed amount of Pesos per hectare or crop sharing agreements (“aparcería”) with payments in kind based on a percentage of the crops obtained or a fixed amount of tons of grains obtained or their equivalent value in Pesos. Leases of farmlands for cattle breeding consist in lease agreements with fixed payments based on a fixed amount of Pesos per hectare or steer kilograms or capitalization agreements with payments in kind or in cash based on the weight gain in kilograms.
During fiscal year 2012, we leased from third parties a total of 71 fields, covering 55,150 hectares, including 5,139 hectares in Brazil. Out of the total leased area, 42,515 hectares were assigned to farming production, including double crops, and 12,635 hectares to cattle. The properties for agricultural production were leased, primarily, at a fixed price prior to harvest and only a small percentage consisted of crop sharing agreements.
The following table shows the breakdown of the number of hectares of leased land used for each of our principal production activities:

|  | Surface area of leased farms |
|  | Fiscal year ended June 30, |
|  | 2009 |  |  | 2010 |  |  | 2011 |  |  | 2012(1) |
|  | (in hectares) |

| (1) | Includes BrasilAgro.

Due to the rise in the price of land, we adopted a policy of not validating such prices and only leasing land at values that would ensure appropriate margins.
Storage Facilities
As of June 30, 2012, we had storage capacity of approximately 105,541 tons (including 35.723% of the storage capacity over 14,950 tons available at Agro Uranga S.A.).
The following table shows, for the fiscal years presented, our storage facilities:

Land Management
In contrast to traditional Argentine farms, run by families, we centralize policy making in an Executive Committee that meets on a weekly basis in Buenos Aires. Individual farm management is delegated to farm managers who are responsible for farm operations. The Executive Committee lays down commercial and production rules based on sales, market expectations and risk allocation.
We rotate the use of our pasture lands between agricultural production and cattle feeding and the frequency depends on the location and characteristics of the farmland. The use of preservation techniques (including exploitation by no till sowing) frequently allows us to improve farm performance.
Subsequent to the acquisition of the properties, we make investments in technology in order to improve productivity and increase the value of the property. It may be the case that upon acquisition, a given extension of the property is under-utilized or the infrastructure may be in need of improvement. We have invested in traditional fencing and in electrical fencing, watering troughs for cattle herds, irrigation equipment and machinery, among other things.
Principal Markets
Crops
Our grains production is entirely sold in the local market. The prices of our grains are based on the market prices quoted in Argentine grains exchanges such as the Bolsa de Cereales de Buenos Aires and the Bolsa de Cereales de Rosario that take as reference the prices in international grains exchanges. The largest part of this production is sold to exporters who offer and ship this production to the international market. Prices are quoted in relation to the month of delivery and the port in which the product is to be delivered. Different conditions in price, such as terms of storage and shipment, are negotiated between the end buyer and ourselves.
Beef Cattle
Our beef cattle production is sold in the local market. The main buyers are slaughterhouses and supermarkets.
Prices in the beef cattle market in Argentina are basically fixed by local supply and demand. The Liniers Market (on the outskirts of the Province of Buenos Aires) provides a standard in price formation for the rest of the domestic market. In this market live animals are sold by auction on a daily basis. At Liniers Market, prices are negotiated by kilogram of live weight and are mainly determined by local supply and demand. Prices tend to be lower than in industrialized countries. Some supermarkets and meat packers establish their prices by kilogram of processed meat; in these cases, the final price is influenced by processing yields.

Milk
During the fiscal years 2010, 2011 and 2012 we sold our entire milk production to the largest Argentine dairy company, Mastellone S.A., which in turn manufactures a range of mass consumption dairy products sold in Argentina and abroad. The price of the milk we sell is mainly based on the percentage of fat and protein that it contains and the temperature at which it is cooled. The price we obtain from our milk also rises or drops based on the content of bacteria and somatic cells.
Customers
For the fiscal year 2012 our sales from the agribusiness (excluding sales of farms) and feedlot/meat packing segment were Ps. 1,097.3 million and were made to approximately 492 customers. Sales to our ten largest customers represented approximately 46% of our net sales during the fiscal year 2011 and approximately 43% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. Of these customers, our biggest three customers, Bunge Alimentos S.A., Brenco Companhia Brasileira de Energia Renovável and Molinos Río de la Plata S.A. represented, in the aggregate, approximately 25% of our sales for 2012, while the remaining seven customers in the aggregate represented approximately 18% of our net sales in fiscal year 2012. We have signed non-binding letters of intent with some of our largest customers that allow us to estimate the volume of the demand for certain products and to plan production accordingly. We generally enter into short-term agreements with a term of less than a year.
Marketing Channels and Sales Methods
Crops
We normally work with grains brokers and other intermediaries to trade in the exchanges. We sell part of our production in advance through futures contracts and buy and sell options to hedge against a drop in prices. Approximately 87% of the futures and options contracts are closed through the Bolsa de Cereales de Buenos Aires (Buenos Aires Grains Exchange) and 13% in the Chicago Board of Trade for hedging purposes.
Our storage capabilities allow us to condition and store grains with no third-party involvement and thus to capitalize the fluctuations in the price of commodities. Our largest storage facilities, with capacity for 10,000 tons, are located in “Las Vertientes”, close to Río Cuarto, Province of Córdoba. In addition, we store grains in silo bags. BrasilAgro counts with a storage capacity of 90,200 tons.
Beef Cattle
We have several marketing channels. We sell directly to local meat processors, supermarkets and in auctions. Our customers include Arre Beef S.A., Quickfood S.A., Finexcor S.A., Frigorífico La Pellegrinense S.A., Friar S.A., Madelan S.A., Jumbo Retail Argentina S.A., Frigorífico Bermejo S.A. and Frigorífico Amancay S.A., at prices based on the price at Liniers Market.
We usually are responsible for the costs of the freight to the market and, in general, we do not pay commissions on our transactions.
Raw Materials
The current direct cost of our production of grains varies in relation to each crop and normally includes the following costs: tillage, seeds, agrochemicals and fertilizers. We buy in bulk and store seeds, agrochemicals and fertilizers to benefit from discounts offered during off-season sales.
Competition
The agricultural and livestock sector is highly competitive with a huge number of producers. We are one of Argentina’s leading producers. However, if we compare the percentage of our production to the country’s total figures, our production would appear as extremely low, since the agricultural market is highly atomized. Our leading position improves our bargaining power with suppliers and customers. In general, we obtain discounts in the region in the acquisition of raw materials and an excess price in our sales.
Historically, there have been few companies competing for the acquisition and leases of farmlands for the purpose of benefiting from land appreciation and optimization of yields in the different commercial activities. However, we anticipate the possibility that new companies, some of them international, may become active players in the acquisition of farmlands and the leases of sown land, which would add players to the market in coming years.
Seasonality
As is the case with any company in the agro-industrial sector, our business activities are inherently seasonal. Harvest and sales of grains (corn, soybean and sunflower) in general take place from February to June. Wheat is harvested from December to January. With respect to our international market, in Bolivia climate conditions allow a double season of soybean, corn and sorghum production and, accordingly, these crops are harvested in April and October, while wheat and sunflower are harvested during August and September, respectively. Other segments of our activities, such as our sales of cattle and milk and our forestry activities tend to be more of a successive character than of a seasonal character. However, the production of beef and milk is generally higher during the second quarter, when pasture conditions are more favorable. In consequence, there may be significant variations in results from one quarter to the other.
Our Investments
Agricultural Business
BrasilAgro Companhia Brasileira de Propriedades Agrícolas
BrasilAgro was created in September 2005 in order to replicate our business in Brazil. BrasilAgro is engaged mainly in two business segments: (i) sugar cane and (ii) grains and cotton.
We created BrasilAgro together with our partners, Cape Town Llc, Tarpon Investimentos S.A., Tarpon Agro LLC, Agro Investments S.A. and Agro Managers S.A.
- 57 -

Part of the knowledge and experience required to implement BrasilAgro’s proposed business plan was initially provided pursuant to a consulting agreement with Paraná Consultora do Investimentos S.A., a special purpose advisory company, 50% owned by Tarpon BR, 37.5% owned by Consultores Assets Management, a company controlled by Mr. Eduardo Elsztain, and 12.5% owned by Mr. Alejandro Elsztain. In February 2011, the consulting agreement was terminated.
On May 2, 2006, BrasilAgro’s shares were listed in the Novo Mercado of the Brazilian Stock Exchange (BOVESPA) with the symbol AGRO3. BrasilAgro’s shares were placed jointly with Banco de Investimentos Credit Suisse (Brazil) S.A. in the Brazilian market through investment mechanisms regulated by controlling authorities and with sales efforts pursuant to an exception from registration under the US Securities Act of 1933. The amount originally offered was R$ 532 million, equivalent to 532,000 book-entry common shares at a price of R$ 1,000 per share of BrasilAgro.
In addition, as is customary in the Brazilian market, BrasilAgro had an option to increase the size of the issue by 20% and Banco de Investimentos Credit Suisse (Brazil) S.A. had another option to increase it by 15% (Green shoe). Given the high demand shown by the placement, both BrasilAgro and Banco de Investimentos Credit Suisse (Brazil) S.A. exercised such options increasing the placement up to 583,200 shares equivalent to R$ 583.2 million, which were fully placed and paid in.
In addition to the funds we originally contributed, we purchased shares in the offering for R$ 42.4 million (approximately US$ 20.6 million). Following such contribution we held a total amount of 42,705 shares, equivalent to 7.4% of BrasilAgro’s capital stock.
On October 31, 2007, BrasilAgro carried out a 1-for-100 share split approved at the Special Shareholders' Meeting held on March 15, 2007 and ratified at the Annual Shareholders' Meeting held on October 29, 2007. Following this split, BrasilAgro's capital stock was composed of 58,422,400 common shares.
On July 22, 2010, the board of directors of BrasilAgro approved the proposal to terminate the consulting services agreement executed with Paraná Consultora de Investimentos S.A.
On October 20, 2010 and on December 23, 2010, we and Tarpon executed two addenda to the share purchase agreement dated as of April 28, 2010, under which we acquired 9,581,750 shares of common stock of BrasilAgro, representing 16.40% of the outstanding stock. Consequently, on October 20, 2010 we paid R$25.2 million and on December 23, 2010 we paid R$50.8 million, and the price reminder of R$52.6 million was paid on April 27, 2011.
Consequently, we are the owners of 20,883,916 shares or 39.64% of BrasilAgro’s outstanding capital stock. It should be noted that such acquisition of shares does not imply any change of control within the shareholders’ group of BrasilAgro according to the legal regime in Brazil; Additionally, we own 168,902 BrasilAgro’s first issuance warrants and 168,902 BrasilAgro’s second issuance warrants.
In addition, during the last quarter of calendar year 2010, we entered into an agreement by means of which we assigned all equity and political rights related to 2,276,534 shares of BrasilAgro for two years. The agreement also provides a promise to sell, under which the assignee may at any time request the sale of BM&FBOVESPA’s shares or the transfer of shares on its behalf. In consideration for the assignment, we paid a fixed value of US$0.8 million and additionally, in the event the assignee requested the sale or transfer of share, it should paid US$7.15 per share sold or transferred. As of June 30, 2012 the option expired and as a result we are the owners of 39.64% of Brasilagro’s outstanding capital stock.
On June 27, 2012, we agreed together with Mr. Elie Horn and Cape Town Llc. to terminate the shareholder’s ageerrment.
As concerns its portfolio as of June 30, 2012, BrasilAgro had 8 properties, with an aggregate surface area of 172,050 hectares, acquired at highly attractive prices as compared to the average in the respective regions, all of which offering high appreciation potential.

Regarding input commercialization, the business volume was concentrated in a small number of suppliers, the agreements with the suppliers were improved in order to increase the margin of the business, and contracts of direct distribution were achieved. In terms of cereals, the grain trading unit was created, with the purpose of participating directly in the business by trading and offering services.
During fiscal year 2007, FyO.com started to trade futures and options: it acquired a share in the Buenos Aires futures and options exchange market (Mercado a Término de Buenos Aires) and has also become a dealer. During fiscal years 2008 and 2009, FyO.com continued trading futures and options with a 7.67% and 23.8% growth, respectively, as compared to the previous year. The service consisting in hedging with futures has consolidated into an essential tool for our customers to manage their price risks.
FYO is committed to excellence through quality and continued improvement. For this reason, since 2008 all its business and administrative processes have been certified under ISO 9001:2008 standards.
On September 30, 2010, the General Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting of FyO.com approved a capital increase for up to Ps. 5.9 million, through the issuance of 538,613 common, registered, non-endorsable shares of Ps. 1 par value each plus an issue premium of Ps. 5, 4. million In this sense, Cresud has subscribed shares for Ps. 4.5 million. Out of this amount, Ps. 3.5 million were paid in through debt capitalization, and the balance of Ps. 0.9 million was paid in cash. As a result of this transaction, the Company’s interest was 65.85% as of June 30, 2012.
As of the end of fiscal year 2012, the company’s total revenues from its grains brokerage business unit were Ps. 21.1 million with a trading volume of 1.7 million tons, 8% higher than the volume traded in fiscal year 2011 and thus accumulating a 50% growth in the last 3 years. The main crops traded were corn and soybean, and to a lesser extent, wheat and sunflower.
The portal fyo.com has reached its tenth anniversary, consolidating as the benchmark site for agricultural marketing and adding year after year new and significant agricultural customers of various sizes to its user community.

FyO.com’s goal is to continue consolidating itself as leading company in the grains brokerage business, standing out from its competitors by offering a full suite of advisory services to its clients and contributing its broad experience in the industry along with its staff’s expertise.
Cactus
Cactus was initially a joint venture between Cresud and Cactus Feeders Inc., one of the largest feedlot companies in the United States. The site of the joint venture’s operations is a 170 hectare farm in Villa Mercedes, in the Province of San Luis, which began operations in September 1999.
During fiscal year 2007, Cactus entered into a joint venture with Tyson Foods, Inc (“Tyson”), a leading meat processing company, pursuant to which Tyson, through Provemex Holdings LLC (“Provemex”), acquired a 52% equity interest in Cactus to establish the first integrated cattle operation in Argentina. Consequently, the stock holdings of Cactus Feeders, Inc. and Cresud in Cactus were reduced to 24% each.
- 59 -

On January 11, 2007, Cactus and us (solely as nominee for Argentine legal purposes) acquired 100% of the shares in Exportaciones Agroindustriales Argentinas S.A. (“EAASA”). EAASA owns a meat packing plant in Santa Rosa, Province of La Pampa, with capacity to slaughter and process approximately 9,500 cattle heads per month. Cactus has been a pioneer in feedlot services with a 25,000 heads of cattle capacity, depending on the size of the cattle. Cactus’ customer base changed during recent years, as many companies related to the beef sector bought calves to be fed at the feedlot. To assure themselves a constant supply of high quality beef, these companies keep an inventory of cattle on feed.
On June 30, 2009, we entered into a shareholders' agreement with Cactus Feeders for the purchase of its 24% interest in Cactus and 0.24% interest in EAASA. The agreed purchase price was US$ 2.4 million. At the same time, our Company and Tyson made contributions to Cactus in the amount of US$ 2.4 million and US$ 2.6 million, respectively. As a consequence of the transaction, we increased our interest in Cactus to 48%.
On December 23, 2010, in order to provide Cactus with funds to satisfy its capital requirements, we made a capital contribution of US$ 4.0 million. Therefore, we increased our equity interest in Cactus from 48% to 80%. The remaining 20% was held by our partner Tyson. As part of this transaction, Tyson and us decided to introduce certain amendments to the shareholders’ agreement, and in this context we granted a put option to Tyson in respect of its 20% interest in Cactus.
On December 21, 2011, Cresud purchased from Provemex, Tyson’s subsidiary, its entire equity interest in both Cactus and EAASA. Therefore, as from such date, Cresud holds 100% of the stock capital and voting rights in Cactus and EAASA.
The feedlot cattle beef production is processed in EAASA’s packing plant for the domestic and foreign markets. Feedlot fattening with a corn-based diet has been growing at a very dynamic pace. The company has gained market reputation thanks to the uniform final product offered by feedlot-finished animals, which provides purchasers with high-quality products and higher yields, succeeding in offering differential sales prices. Cactus continues to receive cattle from farmers that repeat their productive process whereby they breed and re-breed their animals in their own farms and slaughter them at Cactus.
The decrease in supply has adversely affected the value chain by reducing cold-storage plant utilization, which in turn has left several plants struggling to remain operational in view of the poor returns and shortage of raw materials. Our investment in EAASA has not escaped unscathed of this situation.
Since December 2011, the packing plant has remained closed due to the difficult situation within the industry. With the support of the Provincial Government of La Pampa and the Federal Government, combined with Cresud’s confidence that the business could be successfully resumed, in August 2012 the packing plant was reopened and restarted production.
AgroUranga S.A. (“Agro Uranga”)
We have a 35.7% interest in Agro Uranga. This company optimizes production processes and has obtained excellent results, with special emphasis in soil conservation, the application of rational techniques and care of the environment.
Agro Uranga S.A. has two farms: Las Playas and San Nicolás, with a combined area of 8,305 hectares, located in the core region of the Pampas prairies.
Agro Uranga’s crop production revenues are derived in the following way: 40% of the revenues from Agro Uranga’s crop production derives from its special products division, including popcorn, chickpea, peas and lentils, whereas the remaining 60% derives from commodities, such as soybean, corn and wheat.
At present, with the assistance of its foreign trade team it is seeking to develop new products so as to significantly increase export volumes, encouraged by the world’s growing demand.
Expansion in Paraguay
In the context of operations that represent a new expansion of our agricultural business in South America, on September 2008, we entered into several agreements to carry out real estate and agricultural, livestock and forestry activities in the Republic of Paraguay. Under these agreements, a new corporation was organized together with Carlos Casado S.A. under the name Cresca, in which we hold a 50% equity interest. Additionally, we provide consulting services for the agricultural, livestock and forestry development of a rural property of 41,931 hectares.
We entered into a promise agreement to purchase a 50% interest in a rural property located in Mariscal José Felix Estigarribia, Department of Boquerón, Chaco Paraguayo, Republic of Paraguay, owned by Carlos Casado S.A., for a price of US$5.2 million, in order to contribute them to the new company organized. The contribution was made on January 26, 2009, and the title deed to the property was executed on February 3, 2009. Therefore, jointly with the contribution made by Carlos Casado S.A., the total value of the contributions in Cresca is US$10.5 million. In addition, Cresca has an option granted by Carlos Casado S.A. for the purchase of 100,000 additional hectares located in Paraguay.
On March 19, 2010 the option granted under the agreement dated September 3, 2008 (Call Option Agreement) was partially exercised, whereby 3,614 hectares, valued at US$350 each, were transferred to Cresca.
Finally, on June 29, 2010, the title deed was executed, involving the conveyance of 3,646 hectares.
During fiscal year 2012 Cresca added 1,347 hectares to the area under operation and expects to add 3,187 more hectares during the next season. As of June 30, 2012, Cresca had 1,084 hectares intended for beef cattle, 8,378 hectares intended for agriculture and 36,116 hectares of natural woodlands for future developments.
Expansion in the Republic of Bolivia and the Oriental Republic of Uruguay
In the framework of a series of transactions that represent a new expansion of our agribusiness operations in South America, in line with our business plan, we have incorporated companies that own land in the Republic of Bolivia and have acquired a company in the Republic of Uruguay.
For such purposes, the following companies were incorporated: Agropecuaria Acres del Sud S.A., Itin Agropecuaria S.A., Ñandubay Agropecuaria S.A., Ombú Agropecuaria S.A., Yatay Agropecuaria S.A and Yuchan Agropecuaria S.A. whose shareholders are: (i) Agrology S.A. with a 95.12% shareholding, (ii) Puliagro S.A. and (iii) Northagro S.A. with a 2.44% interest, each. The preceding Bolivia-based companies (except for Agropecuaria Acres del Sud S.A.) acquired land for agricultural operations. We maintain a 100.00% ownership interest in the capital stock of those companies, all engaged in agricultural operations.
In addition, during October 2008, we acquired, a company named Helmir S.A., domiciled in the Republic of Uruguay and incorporated with a broad-ranging corporate purpose.
- 60 -

In line with our international expansion strategy, we have entered into a number of agreements to formalize our position in various South American countries. In July 2008, we, executed several promise to purchase agreements for an aggregate of 12,166 hectares in the Republic of Bolivia for a total price of US$28.9 million.
In connection with these lands, on November 20, 2008, two purchase instruments including delivery of possession were executed, as part of the process of casting into public deed and filing of deeds with the relevant registries, involving the purchase of 883, 2,969 and 3,748 hectares in “San Cayetano,” “San Rafael” and “La Fon Fon” farms, respectively, located in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. We have already paid 43% of the agreed price of US$17.5 million. The remaining balance was payable in two annual installments: the first one was paid during the 2010 fiscal period, and the second one was paid in fiscal year 2011.
On January 22, 2009, we executed a deed of purchase for 4,566 hectares in Las Londras farm, located in the Province of Guarayos, Bolivia. On that date, the sum of US$3.8 million was paid, representing 42.9% of the total agreed price. The remaining balance is payable in two annual installments: the first one was paid during the 2010 fiscal period, and the second one was paid in fiscal year 2011.
During fiscal year 2010, 10,800 hectares of the farms located in Bolivia were sown. This region has traditionally achieved double harvesting of soybean, which means that better results can be obtained per hectare during a single season; yet, the weather conditions that prevailed during the last year have not allowed double harvesting.
In June 2011, we entered into a purchase agreement for two agricultural parcels located at Santa Cruz, Bolivia, with a total surface of 5,000 hectares, which are used for agricultural exploitation:
(i) The first parcel has a surface of approximately 2,660 hectares for sugar cane exploitation purposes. The purchase price was US$8.4 million. Upon the execution of the purchase agreement, we paid 23.8% of the purchase price. During the months of July 2011, December 2011 and June 2012, US$ 2.0 million, US$ 1.4 million and US$ 1.4 million were paid, respectively. The remaining balance will be canceled in October 2012.
(ii) The second parcel has a surface of approximately 2,340 hectares for soybeans exploitation purposes. The purchase price was US$4.9 million. of this amount, US$ 3.7 million has already been paid and the balance will be paid in tow semi-annual and consecutive installments, the first two installments paid in December 2011 and the last one will be paid in June 2013.
Transfer of title of both parcels will occur once the purchase price has been paid in full.
Additionally, we have agreed to sell a parcel with a surface of 910 hectares for US$3.64 million. We have received 27.5% of the purchase price and the balance will be paid in 5 consecutive semiannual installments. The last installment is in December 2013.

| Regulation and Government Supervision of our Agricultural Business

Farming and Animal Husbandry Agreements
Agreements relating to farming and animal husbandry activities are regulated by Argentine law, the Argentine Civil Code and local customs.
According to the Law No. 13,246, as amended, all lease agreements related to rural properties and land are required to have a minimum duration of 3 years. Upon death of the tenant farmer, the agreement may continue with his successors. Upon misuse of the land by the tenant farmer or default on payment of the rent, the land owner may initiate an eviction proceeding.
Law No. 13,246, as amended, also regulates agreements for crop sharing pursuant to which one of the parties furnishes the other with farm animals or land with the purpose to share benefits between tenant farmer and land owner. These agreements are required to have a minimum term of duration of 3 years. The tenant farmer must perform himself the obligations under the agreement and may not, assign it under any circumstances. Upon the death, incapacity or impossibility of the tenant farmer, the agreement will be terminated.
Quality control of Grains and Cattle
The quality of the grains and the health measures of the cattle are regulated and controlled by the Servicio Nacional de Sanidad y Calidad Agroalimentaria (“SENASA”), which is an entity within the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fishing and Production (“Ministerio de Agricultura, Ganaderia y Pesca”) that oversees the farming and animal sanitary activities.
Argentine law establishes that the brands should be registered with each provincial registry and that there cannot be brands alike within the same province.
Sale and Transportation of Cattle
Even though the sale of cattle is not specifically regulated, general contract provisions are applicable. Further, every province has its own rural code regulating the sale of cattle.
Argentine law establishes that the transportation of cattle is lawful only when it is done with the respective certificate that specifies the relevant information about the cattle. The required information for the certificate is established by the different provincial regulations, the inter-provinces treaties and the regulations issued by the SENASA.
Export Restriction of Beef
The Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Fishing oversees the farming and animal sanitary activities and controls the distribution of the annual regular quota of top quality chilled beef without bones, the “Cuota Hilton.” The destination of the Cuota Hilton is the European Union.
- 61 -

In September 2010, the Secretaria de Agricultura Ganadería Pesca y Alimentos granted to our subsidiary EAASA 622 tons to export beef under the authorized quotas, known as Cuota Hilton. As of the date of these annual report, such quotas have not been modified
Environment
The development of our agribusiness depends on a number of federal, state and municipal laws and regulations related to environmental protection.
We may be subject to criminal and administrative penalties, including taking action to reverse the adverse impact of our activities on the environment and to reimburse third parties for damages resulting from contraventions of environmental laws and regulations. Based on the Argentine Criminal Code, persons (including directors, officers and legal entity managers) who commit crimes against public health, such as poisoning or dangerously altering water, food or medicine used for public consumption and selling products that are dangerous to health, without the necessary warnings, may be subject to fines, imprisonment or both. Some courts have utilized these provisions in the Argentine Criminal Code to sanction the discharge of substances which are hazardous to human health. At the administrative level, the penalties vary from notices and fines to the full or partial suspension of the activities, which may include the revocation or annulment of tax benefits, cancellation or interruption of credit lines granted by state banks and a restriction on entering into contracts with public entities.
The Forestry Legislation of Argentina prohibits the devastation of forest and forest land, as well as the irrational use of forest products. Landowners, tenants and holders of natural forests require an authorization from the Forestry Competent Authority for the cultivation of forest land. The legislation also promotes the formation and conservation of natural forests in properties used for agriculture and farming purposes.
As of June 30, 2012, we owned land reserves in excess of 350.362 hectares, which are located in under-utilized areas where agricultural production is not yet fully developed. We believe that technological tools are available to improve the productivity of such land and enhance its long-term value. However, existing or future environmental regulations may prevent us from completely developing our land reserves, requiring us to maintain a portion of such land as unproductive land reserves.
In accordance with legislative requirements, we have applied for approval to develop certain parts of our land reserves, to the extent allowed. We cannot assure you that current or future development applications will be approved, and if so, to what extent we will be allowed to develop our land reserves. We intend to use genetically modified organisms in our agricultural activities. In Argentina, the cultivation of genetically modified organisms is subject to special laws and regulations and specific authorizations.
On November 28, 2007, Argentine Congress passed a law known as the Forest Lax which sets minimum standards for the conservation of native forests and incorporates minimum provincial expenditures to promote the protection, restoration, conservation and sustainable use of native forests. The Forest Law prevents landowners, including deforestation of native forests or converting non-forested areas in forested land for other commercial uses without prior permission from each local government that gives the permit and requires the preparation, appraisal and approval of a report environmental impact. The Forest Law also provides that each province should adopt its own legislation and its map of regional order within one year. During the time that such an implementation requires provincial new clearing will be authorized a plan for implementation within one year and not allow any deforestation during this period of one year. In addition, the Forest Law also establishes a national policy for sustainable use of native forests and includes the recognition of native communities that aims to provide preferential use rights to indigenous communities living and farming near the forest. In this case, the relevant provincial authority may not issue permits without formal public hearings and written consent of such communities.
Our activities are subject to a number of national, provincial and municipal environmental provisions. Section 41 of the Argentine Constitution, as amended in 1994, provides that all Argentine inhabitants have the right to a healthy and balanced environment fit for human development and have the duty to preserve it. Environmental damage shall bring about primarily the obligation to restore it as provided by applicable law. The authorities shall see to the protection of this right, the rational use of natural resources, the preservation of the natural and cultural heritage and of biodiversity, and shall also provide for environmental information and education. The National Government shall establish minimum standards for environmental protection whereas Provincial and Municipal Governments shall fix specific standards and regulatory provisions.
On November 6, 2009, the Argentine Congress passed Law No. 25,675. Such law regulates the minimum standards for the achievement of a sustainable environment and the preservation and protection of biodiversity and fixes environmental policy goals.
Law No. 25,675 establishes the activities that will be subject to an environmental impact assessment procedure and certain requirements applicable thereto. In addition, such Law sets forth the duties and obligations that will be triggered by any damage to the environment and mainly provides for restoration of the environment to its former condition or, if that is not technically feasible, for payment of a compensation in lieu thereof. Such Law also fosters environmental education and provides for certain minimum reporting obligations to be fulfilled by natural and artificial persons.
On August 6, 2009, the Comisión Nacional de Valores issued General Resolution No. 559 (“General Resolution No. 559/2009”) providing for the rules applicable to listed companies whose corporate purpose comprise activities regarded as risky for the environment, in order to keep the shareholders, investors and the general public informed about the fulfillment of current environmental regulations. As of the date hereof, such Resolution has not been regulated as provided for therein.
One of our goals is that business be conducted at all times be consistently with environmental laws and regulations.
Property and Transfer Taxes
Value Added Tax. Under Argentine law, the sale of cattle and grains are taxable at a rate equal to 10.5% of the sale price. The sale of milk is taxable at a rate equal to 21%. The sale of land is not taxable.
Gross Sales Tax. A local transfer tax is imposed on the sale price of cattle, grains and milk at a general rate of 1%. In some provinces the sale of primary goods is not taxable.
Stamp Tax. This is a local tax that 23 provinces and the City of Buenos Aires collect based on similar rules regarding subject matter, tax base and rates.In general, this tax is levied on acts validated by documents, (e.g. acts related to the constitution, transmission, or expiration of rights, contracts, contracts for sales of stock and company shares, public deeds relating to real property, etc.).
In the City of Buenos Aires (federal district) the stamp tax only applies to public deeds for the transfer of real estate, or for any other contract whereby the ownership of real property is transferred and commercial leases. The purchase and sale of real estate through public deed is not taxable if the real estate will be used for housing. In the City of Buenos Aires the tax rate is 2.5%. In the Province of Buenos Aires, the tax rate is 3% for public deeds of transfer of real property.

Antitrust Law. Law No. 25,156, as amended, prevents anticompetitive practices and requires administrative authorization for transactions that according to the Antitrust Law would lead to market concentration. According to this law, such transactions would include mergers, transfers of goodwill, acquisitions of property or rights over shares, capital or other convertible securities, or similar operations by which the acquirer controls or substantially influences a company. Whenever such a transaction involves a company or companies with accumulated sales volume greater than Ps.200.0 million in Argentina, then the respective transaction should be submitted for approval to the Antitrust Authority (Comisión Nacional de Defensa de la Competencia, or “CNDC”). The request for approval may be filed, either prior to the transaction or within a week after its completion.
When a request for approval is filed, the Antitrust Authority may (i) authorize the transaction, (ii) subordinate the transaction to the accomplishment of certain conditions, or (iii) reject the authorization.
The Antitrust Law provides that economic concentrations in which the transaction amount and the value of the assets absorbed, acquired, transferred or controlled in Argentina, do not exceed Ps.20.0 million are exempted from the administrative authorization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, when the transactions effected during the prior 12-month period exceed in total Ps.20.0 million or Ps.60.0 million in the last 36 months, these transactions must be notified to the Antitrust Authority.
As our and IRSA’s consolidated annual sales volume exceeds Ps.200.0 million, we should give notice to the Antitrust Authority of any transaction within the scope of the Antitrust Law.

Shopping centers. IRSA is engaged in purchasing, developing and managing shopping centers through our subsidiary Alto Palermo. Alto Palermo operates and owns majority interests in eleven shopping centers in Argentina, seven of which are located in the Buenos Aires metropolitan area and four of which are located in the provinces of Mendoza, Santa Fe, Córdoba and Salta. Recently APSA has started operations, through a concession, of its 13th Shopping Center in the province of Santa Fé. Our Shopping center segment had assets of Ps. 2,234.4 million as of June 30, 2011 and Ps. 2,286.5 million as of June 30, 2012, representing 35.4% and 34.6%, respectively, of our consolidated assets at such dates, and generated operating income of Ps. 385.1 million and Ps. 549.9 million during our 2011 and 2012 fiscal years, respectively, representing 65.8% and 74.9%, respectively, of our consolidated operating income for such years.
ConsumerFfinancing. IRSA was engaged in the consumer financing business through its subsidiary Tarshop S.A. Tarshop’s credit card operations consist primarily of lending and servicing activities relating to the credit card products it offers to consumers at shopping centers, hypermarkets and street stores.
IRSA’s Consumer Financing segment had a low impact in IRSA’s figures this fiscal year since September 1st, 2010, Tarshop S.A. no longer consolidates its financial statement due to an 80% sale of the outstanding capital stock to Banco Hipotecario, an IRSA affiliate on September 1, 2010. However, IRSA still has a 100% equity interest in Metroshop, a small consuming financing company with a residual credit portfolio which will keep diminishing here on.
The Consumer Financing segment had assets of Ps. 48.7 million as of June 30, 2011 and Ps. 62.5 million as of June 30, 2012, which represented 0.008% and 0.009%, respectively, of IRSA consolidated assets at such dates, and generated an operating income of Ps. 19.0 million and Ps. 2.7 million for IRSA’s 2011 and 2012 fiscal years, respectively, representing 0.03% and 0.003%, respectively, of IRSA’s consolidated operating income for such years.
Development and Sale of Properties. The acquisition and development of residential apartment complexes and other residential communities for sale is another of our core activities. IRSA’s development of residential apartment complexes consists of the construction of high-rise towers or the conversion and renovation of existing structures, such as factories and warehouses. For the development of residential communities, IRSA generally acquires vacant land, develop infrastructure such as roads, utilities and common areas and sell plots of land for construction of residential units. IRSA Development and sale of properties segment had assets of Ps. 712.5 million as of June 30, 2011 and Ps. 747.9 million as of June 30, 2012, representing 11.3% of IRSA’s consolidated assets at such dates, and generated operating income of Ps. 85.1 million and Ps. 91.2 million during fiscal years 2011 and 2012, respectively, representing 14.5% and 12.4%, respectively, of its consolidated operating income for such years.

Business Strategy
As a leading company in Argentina dedicated to acquiring, developing and managing real estate, we seek to (i) generate stable cash flows through the operation of our real estate rental assets (shopping centers, office buildings, hotels), (ii) achieve long-term appreciation of our asset portfolio by taking advantage of development opportunities, and (iii) increase the productivity of our land reserves and enhance the margins of our Development and sale of properties segment through partnerships with other developers.
Shopping centers. IRSA believes that the Argentine shopping center sector offers attractive prospects for long-term growth due to, among other factors, a continuing evolution of consumer preferences in favor of shopping malls (away from small neighborhood shops) and a level of shopping center penetration that IRSA considers low compared to many developed countries. IRSA’s main objectives are generating a sustained growth in the cash flow of our shopping centers and increasing their value in the long-term, and maintaining a leading position in the Argentina´s shopping center industry.
Development and Sale of Properties. IRSA seeks to purchase undeveloped properties in densely-populated areas and build apartment complexes offering “green space” for recreational activities. IRSA also seeks to develop residential communities by acquiring undeveloped properties with convenient access to the City of Buenos Aires, developing roads and other basic infrastructure such as power and water, and then selling lots for the construction of residential units. After the economic crisis in 2001 and 2002, the scarcity of mortgage financing restricted the growth in middle class home purchases, and as a result, IRSA mainly focused on the development of residential communities for middle and high-income individuals, who do not need to finance their home purchases. In addition, IRSA seeks to develop residential properties for other segments of the residential market in Argentina and during the first quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, IRSA entered into a partnership with Cyrela Empreendimentos e Participações, a leading Brazilian residential real estate developer, to penetrate in new market segments.
Office and Other Non-Shopping Center Rental Properties. Since the Argentine economic crisis in 2001 and 2002, there has been limited investment in high-quality office buildings in Buenos Aires and, as a result, IRSA believes there is currently substantial demand for those desirable office spaces. IRSA seeks to purchase and develop premium office buildings in strategically-located business districts in the City of Buenos Aires and other strategic locations that IRSA believes offers returns and potential for long-term capital gains. IRSA expects to continue its focus on attracting premium corporate tenants to its office buildings. Furthermore, IRSA intends to consider on a selective basis new opportunities to acquire or construct new rental office buildings.
Hotels. IRSA believes its portfolio of three luxury hotels is positioned to take advantage of future growth in tourism and business travel in Argentina. IRSA seeks to continue with its strategy to invest in high-quality properties which are operated by leading international hotel companies to capitalize on their operating experience and international reputation. IRSA also seeks to continue to invest in improvements for our hotels to maintain a high level of service in the hotel competitive sector.
Banco Hipotecario. IRSA currently seeks to keep its investment in Banco Hipotecario, as believes that Argentina has a low level of mortgages outstanding measured in terms of GDP and as a result, our investment in Banco Hipotecario is interesting in the long term.
Land reserves. IRSA seeks to continue to acquire undeveloped land at locations we consider attractive inside and outside Buenos Aires. In each case, our intention is to purchase land with significant development or appreciation potential for subsequent sale. IRSA believes that holding a portfolio of desirable undeveloped plots of land enhances our ability to make strategic long-term investments and affords us a valuable “pipeline” of new development projects for upcoming years.
International. In the past, IRSA has made significant real estate investments outside of Argentina, including investments in Brazil Realty S.A. in Brazil and Fondo de Valores Inmobiliarios in Venezuela which we disposed of in 2002 and 2001, respectively. IRSA acquired on December 2011 through a subsidiary, in which we hold a 49% equity interest, an office building located at Madison Avenue in the City of New York. We also have a 49% interest in a US company, which principal asset is the “Lipstick” office building located in the City of New York. In addition, jointly with subsidiaries, we acquired and then partially sold equity interests in a Real Estate Investment Trust, called Hersha (NYSE: HT), which holds a controlling interest in 64 hotels in the United States, totaling around 9,221 rooms. As of June 30, 2012, IRSA holds a 9.13% stake in the company. IRSA intends to continue evaluating -on a selective basis- real estate investment opportunities outside Argentina as long as they offer attractive investment and development options.
Shopping Centers
Overview
Through IRSA, we are engaged in purchasing, developing and managing shopping centers through our subsidiary, Alto Palermo. As of June 30, 2012, Alto Palermo operated and owned majority interests in thirteen shopping centers, six of which are located in the City of Buenos Aires (Abasto, Paseo Alcorta, Alto Palermo, Patio Bullrich, Buenos Aires Design and Dot Baires Shopping), two of which are located in the greater Buenos Aires (Alto Avellaneda and Soleil Factory) and the other rest of which are located in the Argentine provinces: Alto Noa in the City of Salta, Alto Rosario in the City of Rosario, Mendoza Plaza in the City of Mendoza, Córdoba Shopping Villa Cabrera in the City of Córdoba and La Ribera shopping in the City of Santa Fe.
As of June 30, 2012, IRSA owned 95.6% of Alto Palermo. The remaining shares are held by the investor public and traded on the Bolsa de Comercio de Buenos Aires and the related GDSs are listed and traded on the Nasdaq National Market (USA) under the symbol “APSA.” In addition, as of June 30, 2012, IRSA owned US$31.7 million of Alto Palermo’s convertible notes due July 2014. If IRSA, and all the other holders of such convertible Notes were to exercise their options to convert the convertible notes into shares of Alto Palermo’s common stock, our shareholding in Alto Palermo would increase to 97.5% of its fully diluted capital.
As of June 30, 2012, Alto Palermo’s shopping centers comprised a total of 309,021 square meters of gross leasable area. For fiscal period 2012, the average occupancy rate of Alto Palermo’s shopping center portfolio was approximately 98.4%.
As a result of APSA’s acquisition of several shopping centers, IRSA centralized management of its shopping centers in Alto Palermo, which is responsible for providing common area electrical power, a main telephone switchboard, central air conditioning and other basic common area services.

Principal Terms of Alto Palermo’s Leases
Under Argentine Law, terms of commercial leases must be between three to ten years, with most leases in the shopping center business having terms of no more than five years. Alto Palermo’s lease agreements are generally denominated in Pesos.
- 67 -

Executive Branch Decree No. 214/2002 and Executive Branch Decree No. 762/2002, which modify Public Emergency Law No. 25,561, determine that duties to turn over sums of money which are denominated in U.S. dollars and which are not related to the financial system as of January 7, 2002 are subject to the following:

| • | obligations will have to be paid in Pesos at a rate of Ps.1.00 = US$1.00. Additionally, these obligations are subject to inflation adjustment through the CER index;

| • | if, as a consequence of this adjustment, the agreement is unfair to any of the parties, as long as the party that has the obligation to pay is not overdue and the adjustment is applicable, either may ask the other for a fairness adjustment. If they do not reach an agreement, a court will make the decision in order to preserve the continuity of the contract relation in a fair way; and

| • | new lease agreements may be freely entered into between parties, even U.S. dollar denominated lease agreements.

Leasable space in Alto Palermo’s shopping centers is marketed through an exclusive arrangement with its real estate brokers, Fibesa S.A. Alto Palermo has a standard lease agreement, the terms and conditions of which are described below, which we use for most tenants. However, Alto Palermo’s largest tenants generally negotiate better terms for their respective leases. No assurance can be given that lease terms will be as set forth in the standard lease agreement.
Alto Palermo charges to its tenants a rent which consists of the higher of (i) a monthly base rent (the “Base Rent”) and (ii) a specified percentage of the tenant’s monthly gross sales in the store (the “Percentage Rent”) (which generally ranges between 4% and 10% of tenant’s gross sales). Furthermore, pursuant to the rent escalation clause in most of the leases, a tenant’s Base Rent generally increases between 7% and 12% on an annual and cumulative basis as from the thirteenth (13th) month of effectiveness of the lease. Although many of the lease agreements contain readjustment clauses, these are not based on an official index nor do they reflect the inflation index. In the event of litigation, there can be no assurance that Alto Palermo may be able to enforce such clauses contained in its lease agreements. The readjustment clause is based on the past year´s gross profit. Alto Palermo calculates the monthly variation (growth) of the gross income for each store taking into consideration the variation between the same months of the past year. If such growth is higher to the adjustment of base rent, then Alto Palermo charge 5.5% of such increase to its tenants for the upcoming 12 months; but if the growth of the average monthly gross sales is lower of such adjustment of the base rent, then Alto Palermo applys an adjustment rate between 7% and 12%.
In addition to rent, Alto Palermo charge most of its tenants an admission right, which is required to be paid upon entering into a lease agreement and upon a lease agreement renewal. The admission right is normally paid in one lump sum or in a small number of monthly installments, range between 3 and 6. If the tenant pays this fee in installments, it is the tenant’s responsibility to pay for the balance of any such amount unpaid in the event the tenant terminates its lease prior to its expiration. In the event of unilateral termination and/or resolution for breach of duties by the tenant, a tenant will not be refunded its admission right without Alto Palermo consent.
In the event of litigation, no assurance can be given that Alto Palermo may be able to enforce such clauses contained in its lease agreements. In addition to rent, Alto Palermo charges most of its tenants an admission fee, which is required to be paid upon entering into a lease agreement and upon a lease agreement renewal, which is negotiated with each of the tenants. The admission fee is normally paid in one lump sum or in a small number of monthly installments. If the tenant pays this fee in installments, it is the tenant’s responsibility to pay for the balance of any such amount unpaid in the event the tenant terminates its lease prior to its expiration. In the event of unilateral termination and/or resolution for breach of duties by the tenant, a tenant will not be refunded its admission right without Alto Palermo’s consent.
Alto Palermo is responsible for supplying each shopping center with the electrical power connection and provision, a main telephone switchboard, central air conditioning connection and a connection to a general fire detection system. Each rental unit is connected to these systems. Alto Palermo also provides the food court tenants with sanitation and with gas systems connections. Each tenant is responsible for completing all the necessary installations within its own rental unit, in addition to the direct expenses generated by these items within each rental unit. These direct expenses generally include: electricity, water, gas, telephone and air conditioning. Tenants must also pay for a percentage of total charges and general taxes related to the maintenance of the common areas. Alto Palermo determines this percentage based on several factors. The common area expenses include, among others, administration, security, operations, maintenance, cleaning and taxes.
Alto Palermo carries out promotional and marketing activities to increase attendance to its shopping centers. These activities are paid for with the tenants’ contributions to the Common Promotional Fund (“CPF”), which is administered by Alto Palermo. Every month tenants contribute to the CPF an amount equal to approximately 15% of their rent (Fixed Monthly Minimum Rent or Variable Rent Dependent on Sales, as applicable), in addition to rent and expense payments. Alto Palermo may increase the percentage that tenants must contribute to the CPF, but the increase cannot exceed 25% of the original amount set forth in the corresponding lease agreement for the contributions to the CPF. Alto Palermo also may require tenants to make extraordinary contributions to the CPF to fund special promotional and marketing campaigns or to cover the costs of special promotional events that benefit all tenants. Alto Palermo may require tenants to make these extraordinary contributions up to four times a year provided that each such extraordinary contribution may not exceed 25% of the preceding monthly rental payment of the tenant.
Each tenant leases its rental unit as a shell without any fixtures. Each tenant is responsible for the interior design of its rental unit. Any modifications and additions to the rental units must be pre-approved by Alto Palermo. Alto Palermo has the option to decide tenants’ responsibility for all costs incurred in remodeling the rental units or for removing any additions made to the rental unit when the lease expires. Furthermore, tenants are responsible for obtaining adequate insurance for their rental units, which must include, among other things, coverage for fire, glass breakage, theft, flood, civil liability and workers’ compensation.

On December 29, 2009, APSA entered into an agreement to sell shares representing 80% of Tarshop’s stock to Banco Hipotecario for US$26.8 million, which sale was approved by the Central Bank on August 30, 2010. As a result, on September 13, 2010, APSA transferred 107,037,152 common shares of Tarshop to Banco Hipotecario, maintaining only 20% of Tarshop’s capital stock. Due to this sale, the Consumer financing segment will have a less significant impact on APSA’s results of operations going forward. As part of the sale, APSA agreed to not compete for 5 years in the credit card and/or consumer business in which Tarshop has a presence. APSA acquired 50% of the capital stock of Metroshop from Tarshop on May 21, 2010, and the remaining 50% from Metronec S.A. on January 13, 2011. Metroshop has agreed to sell to Tarshop its credit card portfolio comprised by delinquent accounts of less than 60 days, among other assets. As of the date of this annual report, APSA is analyzing various possibilities in order to define the future operations of Metroshop S.A.. On July 20, 2011, the general extraordinary shareholders’ meeting of Metroshop S.A. unanimously approved the change of its corporate name to APSAMEDIA S.A. and the amendment of its corporate purpose to capitalize on market opportunities.
Development and Sale of Properties
The acquisition and development of residential apartment complexes and residential communities for sale is one of our core activities. Our development of residential apartment complexes consists of the new construction of high-rise towers or the conversion and renovation of existing structures such as factories and warehouses. In connection with our development of residential communities, we frequently acquire vacant land, develop infrastructure such as roads, utilities and common areas, and sell plots of land for construction of single-family homes. We may also develop or sell portions of land for others to develop complementary facilities such as shopping areas within residential developments.
During fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, revenues from our Development and sale of properties segment were Ps. 328.4 million, compared to Ps. 341.1million in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.
Construction and renovation works on our residential development properties are currently performed, under our supervision, by independent Argentine construction companies that are selected through a bidding process. We enter into turnkey contracts with the selected company for the construction of residential development properties pursuant to which the selected company agrees to build and deliver the development for a fixed price and at a fixed date. We are generally not responsible for any additional costs based upon the turnkey contract. All other aspects of the construction, including architectural design, are performed by third parties.
Another modality for the development of residential undertakings is the exchange of land for constructed square meters. In this way, we deliver undeveloped pieces of land and another firm is in charge of building the project. In this case, we receive finished square meters for commercialization, without taking part in the construction works.
The following table shows certain information and gives an overview regarding our sales and development properties as of June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010:

Residential Apartments and Lofts
In the apartment building market, IRSA acquires undeveloped properties strategically located in densely populated areas of the City of Buenos Aires, particularly properties located next to shopping centers and hypermarkets or those to be constructed. We then develop multi-building high-rise complexes targeting the middle-income market. These are equipped with modern comforts and services, such as open “green areas,” swimming pools, sports and recreation facilities and 24-hour security. In the loft buildings market, our strategy is to acquire old buildings no longer in use located in areas with a significant middle and upper-income population. The properties are then renovated into unfinished lofts allowing buyers the opportunity to design and decorate them according to their preferences.

Residential Communities
In the residential communities market, IRSA acquire undeveloped properties located in suburban areas or neighborhoods near the large cities to develop private neighborhoods and country clubs in which to sell vacant lots for the construction of single family homes. In these properties IRSA build streets and roads and arrange for the provision of basic municipal services and amenities such as open spaces, sports facilities and security. IRSA seek to capitalize on improvements in transportation and communication around the City of Buenos Aires, the growing suburbanization of the region and the shift of the population moving to countryside-type residential communities.
An important factor in the trend towards living in suburban areas has been the improvements and additions to the Autopista Panamericana, Avenida General Paz and Acceso Oeste highways, which significantly reduce traveling time, encouraging a significant number of families to move to the new residential neighborhoods. Furthermore, improvements in public train, subway and bus transportation since their privatization have also influenced the trend to adopt this lifestyle.
As of June 30, 2012, our residential communities for the construction of single-family homes for sale in Argentina had a total of 5,137 square meters of saleable area in Abril, and 26,373 sqm of saleable area in “El Encuentro” (Benavidez). Both residential communities are located in the province of Buenos Aires.
Abril, Hudson, Greater Buenos Aires. Abril is a 312-hectare private residential community located near Hudson City, approximately 34 kilometers south of the City of Buenos Aires. IRSA have developed this property into a private residential community for the construction of single family homes targeting the upper-middle income market. The project includes 20 neighborhoods subdivided into 1,273 lots of approximately 1,107 square meters each. Abril also includes an 18 hole golf course, 130 hectares of woodlands, a 4,000-square meter mansion and entertainment facilities. A bilingual school, horse stables and sports centers and the construction of the shopping center were concluded in 1999. The neighborhoods have been completed, and as of June 30, 2012, 99.6% of the property had been sold for an aggregate of over Ps. 240 million, with 5,137 square meters available for sale.
El Encuentro, Benavidez, Tigre. In the district of Benavidez, Municipality of Tigre, 35 kilometers north from downtown Buenos Aires, a 110-hectare gated residential complex known as “El Encuentro” is located, consisting of a total of 527 lots with a total saleable area of 610,785 square meters with two privileged front accesses: the main one to Vía Bancalari and the service one to Highway No. 9, allowing an easy way to and from the city. On May 21, 2004 an exchange deed was signed for the original lot whereby DEESA agreed to pay US$ 4.0 million to our subsidiary Inversora Bolívar S.A., of which US$ 1.0 million were paid in cash and the balance of US$3.0 million was paid on December 22, 2009, with the transfer of 110 residential plots already chosen, totaling a saleable area of 127,795 square meters. The development of the project is completed and equipped with power supply, water, sewage, effluent treatment plant, public lighting, finished driveways and accesses, buildings, sports facilities, etc.
As of June 30, 2012, after having started its commercialization in March 2010, 84 units have been sold; there are reserves for 6 units for an amount of US$ 0.82 million, and 22 units are available for sale.
Land Reserves

IRSA has acquired what IRSA believe to be two of the largest and most important undeveloped river front plots in Buenos Aires, Puerto Retiro and Santa María del Plata, for the future development of residential and office spaces. In addition, IRSA has benefited from the improvement of land values during periods of economic growth. As of June 30, 2012, our land reserves totaled 25 properties consisting of approximately 2,160 hectares (including the lot in Caballito, and the air space over Coto C.I.C.S.A. - “Coto”- where IRSA hold interests through our subsidiary Alto Palermo).
Land Reserves in the City of Buenos Aires
Solares de Santa Maria, City of Buenos Aires, (formerly Santa María del Plata). Solares de Santa María is a 70-hectare property facing the Río de la Plata in the south of Puerto Madero, 10 minutes from downtown Buenos Aires. Through our subsidiary Solares de Santa María S.A. (“Solares de Santa María”) IRSA is the owner of this property. IRSA intends to develop this property for mixed purposes, i.e. our development project involves residential complexes as well as offices, stores, hotels, sports and sailing clubs, services areas with schools, supermarkets and parking lots.
As part of the project, IRSA have sold 10% of Solares de Santa María capital stock for US$10.6 million to Mr. Israel Sutton Dabbah, who is part of the Sutton Group. An initial payment of US$1.5 million was made and the balance of US$9.1 million was capitalized in September 2010.
In September 2010, IRSA acquired through E-Commerce Latina S.A. 100% of the capital stock of Unicity for an amount of US$ 2.5 million. Unicity capitalized its US$ 9.1 million debt with us and IRSA received in exchange 36,036,000 shares representing 88.61% of Unicity, being held by E-Commerce Latina S.A. the remaining 11.39%. Following this transaction, IRSA owns 100% of capital stock of Solares de Santa María.
In 1997 IRSA acquired the site which the National Executive Branch had assigned to be the Olympic village of the Olympic Games in case Buenos Aires was chosen as host city to hold the Olympic Games. A rule passed by the Legislative Branch of the City of Buenos Aires in 1992, provided general urban standards to the site, and stated that the “Site urban design” was to be submitted for approval of the Environmental Urban Plan Council (Consejo de Planificación Urbana - “COPUA”). As from the acquisition of this property, IRSA has been seeking the municipal approvals necessary for the development of a mixed project in the area.
In the year 2000, IRSA filed a master plan for the Santa María del Plata site, which was assessed by COPUA and submitted to the Town Treasurer’s Office for its consideration. In 2002, the Government of the City of Buenos Aires issued a notice of public hearing and in July 2006, the COPUA made some recommendations about the project, and in response to the recommendations made by COPUA to the project on December 13, 2006, IRSA filed an amendment to the project to adjust it to the recommendations made by COPUA, making material amendments to our development plan for the Area, which amendments included the donation of 50% of the site to the City of Buenos Aires for public use and convenience and a perimetrical pedestrian lane along the entire site on the river bank.
In March 2007, a committee of the Government of the City of Buenos Aires, composed of representatives from the Legislative and Executive Branches issued a report stating that such Committee had no objections to our development plan and requested that the General Treasury render a decision concerning the scope of the development plan submitted for the project.
In November 2007, 15 years after the Legislative Branch of the City of Buenos Aires granted the general zoning standards for the site, the Government Chief of the City of Buenos Aires executed Decree No. 1584/07, which passed the specific ruling, set forth certain rules for the urban development of the project, including types of permitted constructions and the obligation to assign certain spaces for public use and convenience.
Notwithstanding the approval of Decree No. 1584/07 in 2007, several municipal approvals are still pending and in December 2007, a municipal court rendered a decision restricting the implementation of our proposed development plan, due to objections made by a legislator of the City of Buenos Aires, alleging the suspension of Decree No. 1584/07, and each construction project and/or the municipal permits granted for business purposes. Notwithstanding the legality and validity of the Decree No. 1584/07, IRSA entered into an agreement 5/10 that was executed with the Government of the City of Buenos Aires, which has been sent with a legislative bill to the Legislature of the City of Buenos Aires under number 976-J-2010, for approval. Once approved, these regulations will have the hierarchy of a law.

One of the only two significant privately owned waterfront properties in the City of Buenos Aires, Puerto Retiro may currently be utilized only for port activities, so IRSA has initiated negotiations with municipal authorities in order to rezone the area. Our plan is to develop a 360,000 square meters financial center. The launching date has not been settled and consequently, the estimated cost and financing method are not decided. IRSA owns a 50% indirect interest in Puerto Retiro through our subsidiary Inversora Bolívar S.A.

On July 5, 2010, well within the 90-running day term already mentioned, APSA started the shared works.
The first stage of the works is to be finished in a maximum 22-month period counted as from the date of commencement of the construction works. In the event of a breach of the conditions agreed upon, the Municipality of Neuquén is entitled to terminate the agreement and proceed as necessary, which means that the Municipality of Neuquén is entitled to demand that the parcels it sold to IRSA be returned.
On June 18, 2009, Shopping Neuquén S.A. received from the company G&D Developers S.A. US$ 119 thousand as price for the sale of a lot of approximately 4,332 sqm located in the surroundings of the property that will host the shopping center, though separate from it, in the framework of the negotiations conducted with the Municipality of Neuquén.

In June 2009, Liveck acquired a 90% stake in the capital stock of Vista al Muelle S.A. and Zetol S.A., two Uruguay-based real estate companies, for US$ 7.8 million. The remaining 10% ownership interest in both companies is held by Banzey S.A. (“Banzey”). These companies have undeveloped lands in Canelones, Uruguay, close to the capital city of Uruguay, Montevideo.
The total purchase price for Zetol S.A. was US$ 7.0 million; there has been a down payment for US$ 2.0 million and it has been agreed that the balance shall be cancelled in 5 installments of US$ 1.0 million each, accruing interest at an annual 3.5% rate on outstanding balances, against the consummated launches of the projected construction or within a maximum term of 93 months counted as from the date of acquisition by IRSA. The sellers may choose to receive, in lieu of cash for the outstanding balances (principal plus interest), ownership over units in the buildings to be constructed in the land owned by Zetol S.A. equivalent to 12% of the total marketable meters to be constructed.
The total price for the acquisition of Vista al Muelle S.A. was US$ 0.83 million, as follows: there has been a US$ 0.5 million down payment and it has been agreed that the balance will be cancelled within a maximum term of two years plus an annual 8% interest rate on balances.
To secure compliance with the obligations assumed by Liveck in connection with the above-mentioned transactions, Ritelco S.A. has tendered a surety bond to secure 45% of the price balance, interest, and the sellers’ option rights.
There is a mortgage over the land bought, which means that the sellers rely on a dual guarantee. As of June 30, 2009, IRSA sold a 50% stake in Liveck to Cyrela Brazil Realty S.A for US$ 1.3 million.
Under the agreement for the purchase and sale of Zetol S.A. and Vista al Muelle S.A. and its respective addenda, Liveck has undertaken to acquire the shareholding held by Banzey (or by Ernesto Kimelman or by an entity owned by him, as applicable) in those companies and Banzey has agreed to sell the shares for the amount in US Dollars or in Uruguayan Pesos, as applicable, that any of them would have effectively contributed to Zetol S.A. and Vista al Muelle S.A., until the transaction is consummated.
In December 2009, Vista al Muelle acquired a real property for a purchase price of US$ 1.9 million; there has been a US$ 0.3 million down payment and the balance shall be cancelled through the delivery of housing units and/or storefronts to be constructed and equivalent to 12% of a 65.54% portion of the sum of the prices of all the units covered by the Launching Price List for Sector B (the parties have already signed a plat of subdivision to this end).

IRSA intends to carry out an urban project consisting in the construction of apartment buildings to be subsequently sold. The project has been granted the requisite “urban feasibility” status by the Mayor’s Office of the Canelones department and by its local legislature.
Lipstick building, New York, United States. In July 2008, IRSA (through its subsidiaries) acquired a 30% equity interest in Metropolitan, which principal asset is an office building known as “Lipstick Building”, and the debt related to this asset. The transaction included the acquisition of (i) put rights effective July 2011 over 50% of the interest purchased for a price equal to the amount invested plus interest at rate of 4.5% per annum and (ii) a right of first offering for the acquisition of 60% of the 5% equity interest. The price paid for the transaction was US$ 22.6 million.
During fiscal year 2011, as a result of negotiations successfully undertaken, an agreement was reached to restructure Metropolitan’s debt as follows:
(i) the mortgage debt was reduced from US$ 210.0 million to US$ 130.0 million at a Libor rate + 400 basis points, subject to a cap of 6.25% and a 7-year maturity term;
(ii) the junior debt, amounting to US$ 45.0 million (excluding accrued interest) was repaid with the payment of US$ 2.25 million; and
(iii) the existing ground leases will be maintained under the same terms and conditions as they were granted, in principle for a remaining period of 66 years.
This restructuring took place on December 30, 2010. On such date, a principal payment of US$ 15.0 million (previously contributed by us) was made under the new restructured mortgage debt, reducing it from US$ 130.0 million to US$ 115.0 million.
Following such closing, IRSA indirectly hold 49% of New Lipstick LLC, a holding company that is owner of Metropolitan, and under the scope of these agreements, IRSA cancelled the put option for 50% of the equity interest initially acquired.
The Lipstick Building is a landmark building in the City of New York, located on Third Avenue and 53rd Street in Midtown-Manhattan, New York. It was designed by architects John Burgee and Philip Johnson (Glass House and Seagram Buildings among other remarkable works) and its name is due to its original elliptic form and the reddish color of its façade. Its gross leasable area is around 57,500 square meters distributed in 34 stories.
As of June 30, 2012, this building had an occupancy rate over 86% generating average revenues above US$ 63.0 per sqm per month.
In the last year 5 new lease agreements were executed in respect of an area equal to 1,547 sqm, generating average monthly revenues of US$ 74.5/sqm. In addition, 3 agreements were renewed in respect of an area of 808 sqm with average monthly revenues of US$ 69.5/sqm. While the building net absorption rate was somewhat negative (2.57)%, the average rental amount compared to the previous year rose by 5% (from US$ 60/sqm to US$ 63/sqm).
In respect of the “turnkey” offices constructed on the 26th floor, 3 of them were occupied, and the last one is available for lease. Going ahead with the turnkey office development program, designs are in progress to build more spaces on floors 17, 19, 27 and 31, which were also entrusted to the architecture firm Gensler. In addition, in July remodeling of the exterior of the Lobby was completed and a photo exhibition about the life of Philip Johnson was inaugurated and curated by Hillary Lewis; both works were entrusted to the renowned firm Moed de Armas & Shannon.

Management
IRSA generally acts as the managing agent of the office properties in which IRSA owns an interest. These interests consist primarily of the ownership of entire buildings or a substantial number of floors in a building. The buildings in which IRSA owns floors are generally managed pursuant to the terms of a condominium agreement that typically provides for control by a simple majority of the interests (based on the area owned) in the building. As the managing agent of operations, IRSA is responsible for handling services, such as security, maintenance and housekeeping. These services are generally contracted to third party providers. The cost of the services are passed-through and paid for by the tenants, except in the case of IRSA’s units not rented, in which case we absorb the cost. IRSA' leasable space is marketed through commissioned brokers, the media and directly by IRSA.
Leases
IRSA leases its offices and other properties by contracts with an average term of three years, with the exception of a few contracts with terms of five years. These contracts are renewable for two or three years at the tenant’s option. Contracts for the rental of office buildings and other commercial properties are generally stated in U.S. dollars, and in accordance with Argentine law they are not subject to inflation adjustment. Rental rates for renewed periods are negotiated at market value.

On May 26, 2010, jointly with the Government of the City of Buenos Aires, we executed a deed of conveyance of title whereby we acquired a property located at Avenida Eduardo Madero 150, between Av. Córdoba and San Martín. The total price of the transaction was fixed in the amount of Ps. 95 million, Ps. 19 million of which were paid upon the execution of the preliminary sales agreement (on December 17, 2009), whereas the balance of Ps. 76 million was paid upon the execution of the deed on May 26, 2010.
IRSA’s Investment in Banco Hipotecario
As of June 30, 2012, IRSA owned approximately 29.77% of Banco Hipotecario which represented 15.1% of its consolidated assets as of such date. Established in 1886 by the Argentine government and privatized in 1999, Banco Hipotecario has historically been Argentina’s leading mortgage lender, provider of mortgage-related insurance and mortgage loan services. All of its operations and customers are located in Argentina where it operates a nationwide network of 52 branches and 15 sales offices.
Banco Hipotecario is a full-service commercial bank offering a wide variety of banking activities and related financial services to individuals, small-and medium-sized companies and large corporations. As of June 30, 2012, Banco Hipotecario ranked eighth in the Argentine financial system in terms of shareholders’ equity and thirteenth in terms of total assets. As of June 30, 2012, Banco Hipotecario’s shareholders’ equity was Ps.3,369.2 million, its consolidated assets were Ps.15,337.5 million, and its net income for the six months was Ps.156.8 million. Since 1999, Banco Hipotecario’s shares have been listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange in Argentina, and since 2006 it has had a Level I GDR program.
Banco Hipotecario’s business strategy is focused on leveraging its financial position and developing a diversified banking business built on its existing mortgage franchise. Since its debt restructuring in 2004, it began to make progress in this diversification strategy, growing its lending business and developing new business lines, implementing integrated technological solutions to enable its entry into retail banking, extending its marketing network and creating back-office services to support its new operations.
As part of its business diversification strategy, Banco Hipotecario expanded its products offering personal loans, mortgages and asset-backed loans. It also expanded its corporate loan product offerings and implemented certain customer loyalty strategies. In response to demand for retail and wholesale time deposits and savings accounts, Banco Hipotecario expanded its deposit base offering personal checking accounts and launched the Visa Banco Hipotecario credit card which has steadily grown in terms of market penetration and transaction size. Banco Hipotecario also continued its strategy of expanding the offering of non-mortgage related insurance products, including combined family, life, unemployment, health, personal accident and ATM theft insurance.
Banco Hipotecario seeks to achieve a balanced portfolio of mortgage loans, consumer financing and corporate credit lines, while maintaining an adequate risk management policy. As of June 30, 2012, its portfolio of non-mortgage loans represented 79.5% of its total loan portfolio, compared to 72.9% as of June 30, 2011.
During the period ended June 30, 2012, Banco Hipotecario also experienced continued growth in deposits, including savings accounts and time deposits.
The following table sets forth Banco Hipotecario’s sources of funding as of the dates indicated.

Seasonality
IRSA’s “shopping centers” business unit is subject to strong seasonality. During the summer holiday season (January and February) IRSA’s tenants experience their minimum sales levels, compared to the winter holiday season (July) and December (Christmas) when IRSA’s tenants tend to reach their peak sales figures. Clothes and footwear tenants tend to change their collections in the spring and fall. This has a positive effect on the sales of stores. Discount sales at the end of each season also have a major impact on our business.
Competition
Offices and Other Non-Shopping Center Rental Properties
Substantially all of IRSA’s office and other non-shopping center rentals are located in developed urban areas. There are many office buildings, shopping malls, retail and residential premises in the areas where our properties are located. This is a highly fragmented market, and the abundance of comparable properties in our vicinity may adversely affect our ability to rent or sell office space and other real estate and may effect as the sale and lease price of IRSA’s premises.
In the future, both national and foreign companies may participate in Argentina’s real estate development market, competing with us for business opportunities. Moreover, in the future IRSA may participate in the development of real estate in foreign markets, potentially encountering well established competitors.
Shopping centers
Because most of IRSA’s shopping centers are located in developed in highly populated areas, there are competing shopping centers within, or in close proximity to, our targeted areas. The number of shopping centers in a particular area could have a material effect on our ability to lease space in our shopping centers and on the amount of rent that we are able to charge. IRSA believes that due to the limited availability of large plots of land and zoning restrictions in the City of Buenos Aires, it will be difficult for other companies to compete with it in areas through the development of new shopping center properties. IRSA’s principal competitor is Cencosud S.A. which owns and operates Unicenter shopping center and the Jumbo hypermarket chain, among others.

IRSA’s Regulation and Government Supervision of its Real Estate Business
The laws and regulations governing the acquisition and transfer of real estate, as well as municipal zoning ordinances and environmental regulations among others, are applicable to the development and operation of IRSA’s properties.
Currently, Argentine law does not specifically regulate shopping center lease agreements. Since IRSA’s shopping center leases generally differ from ordinary commercial leases, IRSA has created standard provisions that govern the relationship with its shopping center tenants.
Leases
Argentine law imposes certain restrictions on landlords, including:

| • | a prohibition to include price adjustment clauses based on inflation increases in lease agreements; and
| • | the imposition of a three-year minimum lease term for retail property, except in the case of stands and/or spaces in markets and fairs.

Although IRSA’s lease agreements were U.S. dollar-denominated, Executive Branch Decree No. 214/2002, Executive Branch Decree No.762/2002 and Law No. 25,820 that amended the Public Emergency Law, provided that monetary obligations in force as of January 7, 2002 arising from agreements governed by private law and which provided for payments in U.S. dollars were subject to the following rules:
- 85 -

| • | financial obligations were to be paid in Pesos at the exchange rate of Ps.1.00 = US$1.00 plus the CER for commercial leases;
| • | from October 1, 2002 and until March 31, 2004 for residential leases, the obligations where the tenant is an individual and the dwelling is used as the family residence of permanent use were to be paid in Pesos at the exchange rate of Ps.1.00 = US$1.00 plus the CVS;
| • | if due to the application of these provisions, the amount of the installment were higher or lower than the amount at the moment of the payment, any of the parties could require an equitable adjustment of the price. If the parties did not reach an agreement, the judicial courts could decide on a case by case basis; and
| • | pursuant to Executive Branch Decree No. 117/2004 and Law No. 25,796 that amends Law No. 25,713, the CVS became unenforceable since April 1, 2004.

Under the Argentine Civil Code and Lease Law No.23,091, lease terms may not exceed ten years, except for leases regulated by Law No. 25,248 (which provides that real estate leases containing purchase options –leasing inmobiliario- are not subject to term limitations). Generally, terms in IRSA’s lease agreements go from 3 to 10 years.
Despite this restriction, in November 2007, the judicial courts authorized IRSA’s subsidiary Alto Palermo to enter into a lease agreement with Wal Mart Argentina S.R.L. for a term of 30 years. This exception was authorized taking into consideration the size of the investment required and the amount of time that was necessary to recoup this investment. In June 2008, IRSA’s subsidiary Alto Palermo requested the judicial courts a new authorization to enter into a lease agreement with Falabella for a term of 30 years. In August 2008, the judicial courts rejected the request and in November 2008 Alto Palermo appealed this decision. In June 2009, the Appeal Court also rejected Alto Palermo’s request and as a result such matter has been concluded.
Lease Law No. 23,091, as amended by Law No. 24,808 provides that tenants may rescind commercial lease agreements after the first six months by sending a written notice at least 60 days before the intended termination date of the contract. Such rescission is subject to penalties which range from one to one and a half months of rent. If the tenant rescinds during the first year of the lease the penalty is one and a half month’s rent and if the rescission occurs after the first year of lease the penalty is one month’s rent.
While current argentine government policy discourages government regulation of lease agreements, there can be no assurance that additional regulations will not be imposed in the future by the Argentine Congress, including regulations similar to those previously in place. Furthermore, most of our leases provide that the tenants pay all costs and taxes related to the property in proportion to their respective leasable areas. In the event of a significant increase in the amount of such costs and taxes, the argentine government may respond to political pressure to intervene by regulating this practice, thereby negatively affecting our rental income. The Argentine Civil and Commercial Procedure Code enables the lessor to pursue what is known as an “executory proceeding” upon lessees failure to pay rent. In executory proceedings debtors have fewer defenses available to prevent foreclosure, making these proceedings substantially shorter than ordinary ones. In executory proceedings the origin of the debt is not under discussion; the trial focuses on the debt instrument. The aforementioned code also permits special eviction proceedings, which are carried out in the same way as ordinary proceedings. The Argentine Civil Code enables judges to summon tenants who fall two months in arrears to vacate the property they are renting within 10 days of having received notice to such effect. However, historically, large court dockets and numerous procedural hurdles have resulted in significant delays to eviction proceedings, which generally last from six months to two years from the date of filing of the suit to the time of actual eviction.
Development and Land Use
Buenos Aires Urban Planning Code. IRSA’s real estate activities are subject to several municipal zoning, building and environmental regulations. In the city of Buenos Aires, where the vast majority of its real estate properties are located, the Buenos Aires Urban Planning Code (Código de Planeamiento Urbano de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires) generally restricts the density and use of property and controls physical features of improvements on property, such as height, design, set-back and overhang, consistent with the city’s urban landscape policy. The administrative agency in charge of the Urban Planning Code is the Secretary of Urban Planning of the City of Buenos Aires.
Buenos Aires Building Code. The Buenos Aires Building Code (Código de la Edificación de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires) complements the Buenos Aires Urban Planning Code and regulates the structural use and development of property in the city of Buenos Aires. The Buenos Aires Building Code requires builders and developers to file applications for building permits, including the submission to the Secretary of Work and Public Services (Secretaría de Obras y Servicios Públicos) of architectural plans for review, to assure compliance therewith.
We believe that all of our real estate properties are in material compliance with all relevant laws, ordinances and regulations.
Sales and Ownership
Real Estate Installment Sales Law. The Real Estate Installment Sales Law No. 14,005, as amended by Law No. 23,266 and Executive Branch Decree No. 2015/1985, imposes a series of requirements on contracts for the sale of subdivided real estate property, for example, the sale price which is paid in installments and the deed, which is not conveyed until final payment of such price. The provisions of this law require, among other things:

| • | the registration of the intention to sell the property in subdivided plots in the Real Estate Registry (Registro de la Propiedad Inmueble) corresponding to the jurisdiction of the property. Registration will only be possible with regard to unencumbered property. Mortgaged property may only be registered where creditors agree to divide the debt in accordance with the subdivided plots. However, creditors may be judicially compelled to agree to the division;
| • | the preliminary registration with the Real Estate Registry of the purchase instrument within 30 days of execution of the agreements.

Once the property is registered, the installment sale may not occur in a manner inconsistent with the Real Estate Installment Sales Act, unless seller registers his decision to desist from the sale in installments with the Real Estate Registry. In the event of a dispute over the title between the purchaser and third-party creditors of the seller, the installment purchaser who has duly registered the purchase instrument with the Real Estate Registry will obtain the deed to the plot. Further, the purchaser can demand conveyance of title after at least 25% of the purchase price has been paid, although the seller may demand a mortgage to secure payment of the balance of the purchase price.
After payment of 25% of the purchase price or the construction of improvements on the property equal to at least 50% of the property value, the Real Estate Installment Sales Act prohibits the rescission of the sales contract for failure by the purchaser to pay the balance of the purchase price. However, in such event the seller may take action under any mortgage on the property.

Consumer Protection Law. Consumer Protection Law No. 24,240, as amended, regulates several issues concerning the protection of consumers in the arrangement and execution of contracts. The Consumer Protection Law purports to prevent potential abuses deriving from the strong bargaining position of sellers of goods and services in a mass-market economy where standard form contracts are widespread. As a result, the Consumer Protection Law deems void and unenforceable certain contractual provisions in consumer contracts, including those which contain:

| • | warranty and liability disclaimers;
| • | waiver of consumer rights;
| • | extension of seller rights; and
| • | shifting of the burden of proof against consumers.

In addition, the Consumer Protection Law imposes penalties ranging from fines to closing down of establishments in order to induce compliance from sellers.
The Consumer Protection Law defines consumers or users, as the individuals or legal entities that (i) acquire or use goods or services free of charge or for a price for final use for of their own final use and benefit or that of their family or social group, including the acquisition of rights on a time-share leasing, country club, private cemetery, among others, (ii) though not being party to a consumer relationship, as a result thereof acquire or use goods or services for their own final use or that of their family or social group, and (iii) are otherwise exposed to a consumer relationship.
In addition, the Consumer Protection Law defines the suppliers of goods and services as the individuals or legal entities, either public or private that in a professional way, even occasionally, produce, import, distribute or commercialize goods or supply services to consumers or users.
The consumer protection law excludes the services supplied by professionals that require a college degree and registration in officially recognized professional organizations or by a governmental authority. However, this law regulates the advertisements that promote the services of such professionals.
The Consumer Protection Law determines that the information contained in the offer addressed to undetermined prospective consumers, binds the offeror during the period in which the offer takes place and until its public revocation. Further, it determines that specifications included in advertisements, announcements, prospectuses, circulars or other media bind the offeror and are considered part of the contract entered into by the consumer. On June 2005, Resolution No. 104/05, which complements the Consumer Protection Law, adopted MERCOSUR’s Resolution on which requires that those who engage in commerce over the Internet (E-Business) to disclose in a precise and clear manner the characteristics of the products and/or services offered and the sale terms. Failure to comply with the terms of the offer is deemed an unjustified denial to sell and gives rise to sanctions.
Buildings Law. Buildings Law No. 19,724, as amended, sets forth a regime for the construction of buildings for later subdivision into condominium (Propiedad Horizontal). Under this law, developers must inform potential purchasers of their intention to sell the building as a condominium, as well as of all sale conditions, and the size of each unit in relation to the whole building. The sale of these units is subject to subdivision approval and in order to be included in Buildings Law regime must be registered with the Real Estate Registry (Registro de la Propiedad Inmueble). This law also states that, in the event that construction is not completed, all amounts already deposited must be repaid to the purchasers. All intervening parties are jointly and severally liable to reimburse all amounts deposited or paid by the purchasers. All agreements entered into with the purchasers shall be filed with the relevant real estate registry.
Mortgage Regulation. The Argentine Civil Code regulates mortgages both as a contract and as a right over property. There are no special provisions in the Civil Code aimed at protecting mortgagors. Any agreement entered into by a mortgagor and a mortgagee at time of execution of the mortgage or prior to the default of the mortgagor allowing the mortgagee to recover the property without a public auction of the property will not be enforced by the courts as contrary to Argentine public policy.
Until the enactment of Trust Law No. 24,441, the only procedure available to collect unpaid amounts secured by a mortgage was a proceeding regulated by the Civil and Commercial Procedure Code. The heavy caseload on the courts that hear such matters usually delays the proceeding, which currently takes 1 to 2 years to be completed.
Title V of Trust Law No. 24,441 institutes a new procedure which may expedite collection of unpaid amounts secured by a mortgage. To be applicable, the new rules, which allow an out-of-court auction, need to be expressly agreed to by the parties in the mortgage contract.
Currently, IRSA includes in its mortgages a clause enabling the enforcement of Law No. 24,441. However, there can be no assurance that such collection provisions will accelerate the recovery of unpaid amounts under mortgage guarantees.
The Argentine Government has tried to avoid the massive foreclosure of mortgages since the 2001 crisis. The Public Emergency Law, as amended, established the suspension for the term of 270 days from the enactment of that law, of all the judicial or non-judicial enforcement procedures, including the enforcement of mortgages and pledges, regardless of their origin. On February 14, 2002, Law No. 25,563 amending the Bankruptcy Law (the “New Bankruptcy Law”) was enacted. Under the New Bankruptcy Law, certain bankruptcies and foreclosures (including foreclosures on mortgage loans) were suspended for a period of 180 days from the law’s effective date. Such period was extended for 180 additional by law Nº 25,589 and afterwards for 90 additional days more by Law No. 25,640 dated September 2002, expiring on February, 2003.
On February 4, 2003, the Executive Branch enacted Executive Branch Decree No. 204/2003 creating a mediation proceeding, for a limited period of 90 days, to be conducted through the Legal Emergency Units (Unidades de Emergencias Legales) depending from the Ministry of Labor, Employment and Social Security and the Ministry of Production. Such Emergency Legal Units shall intervene at the request of debtors or creditors in foreclosure cases.
The mediation procedure was voluntary and free. Proposals and negotiations made by the parties were subject to the confidentiality of ordinary mediations. The mediation procedure in no case shall result in the suspension or interruption of the legal terms running in judicial or out-of-court foreclosure proceedings.
The Legal Emergency Units should try to approximate the parties’ proposals to reach an agreement enabling the debtor the performance of his obligations without lessening the creditor’s rights. The intervention of the Emergency Legal Units shall conclude with an agreement or with the impossibility of reaching such agreement. The Executive Branch Decree establishes that the conciliation proceeding shall be in force from the day of its publication in the Official Gazette and will have a term of 90 days.
On May 2003, the Argentine Congress enacted Law No. 25,737 which suspended foreclosures for an additional period of 90 days, which ended in May 2003. On September 2003, several financial institutions voluntarily agreed not to foreclose on their mortgage loans. On November 2005, the Argentine congress enacted Law No. 26,062 that extended the foreclosures suspension for an additional 120 days period, which was extended for 90 days more by Law No. 26,084 and for 180 days more by Law No. 26,103. Pursuant to these successive extensions, foreclosure on mortgaged property was suspended until December 2006.

On November 6, 2003 Law No. 25,798 was enacted. It established a mechanism to reschedule debts resulting from unpaid mortgages, by creating a trust (paid by the Argentine Government) which would purchase the mortgage debts and reschedule the maturity date. Financial institutions were given until June 22, 2004 to accept said terms. This law was partially modified by Law No. 25,908 (enacted on July 13, 2004) which included various conditions referring to the incorporation into this system of the mortgage loans that were in judicial or private execution proceedings. The parties to secured loan agreements were given a term to express their adhesion to this system. This term was extended twice first by Executive Branch Decree No. 352/2004 for a period of sixty days and then by Law No. 26,062 effective as of November 4, 2005, which extended the foreclosures suspension for an additional 120 days, which was again extended for 90 days more by Law No. 26,084 and for 180 days more by Law No. 26,103.
On November 8, 2006, Law No. 26,167 was enacted. It established a special proceeding to replace ordinary trials for the enforcement of some mortgage loans. These special proceedings give creditors ten days to inform the debtor of the amounts owed to them and agree with the debtor on the amount and terms of payment. In case the parties fail to reach an agreement, payment conditions are to be determined by the judge. Also, this law established the suspension of the execution of judicial judgments, judicial and out of court auctions, evictions and other proceedings related to the mortgage loans contemplated in this law.
Most mortgages executed by us provide that we are empowered to declare the anticipated expiration of the loan upon non-payment of an installment. This enables us to recover the unpaid amounts through the sale of the relevant property pursuant to the Civil and Commercial Procedure Code and Law No. 24,441.
Pursuant to Argentine law, fees and expenses related to collection procedures must be borne by the debtor, and the proceeds from any auction of the property may be used for the settlement of such obligation.
Although IRSA’s mortgages are U.S. dollar-denominated, Executive Branch Decree No. 214/2002 and Executive Branch Decree No. 762/2002 that amend the Public Emergency Law provide that monetary obligations in force as of January 7, 2002, resulting from agreements governed by private law and which provide for payments in U.S. dollars are subject to the following rules:

| • | financial obligations were to be paid in Pesos at the exchange rate of Ps.1.00 = US$1.00 plus the CER for commercial leases;
| • | from October 1, 2002 and until March 31, 2004 for residential leases, the obligations where the tenant is an individual and the dwelling is used as the family residence of permanent use were to be paid in Pesos at the exchange rate of Ps.1.00 = US$1.00 plus the CVS;
| • | if due to the application of these provisions, the amount of the installment became higher or lower than the amount at the moment of the payment, any of the parties could require an equitable adjustment of the price. If the parties did not reach an agreement, the judicial courts could decide on a case by case basis; and
| • | pursuant to Executive Branch Decree No. 117/2004 and Law No. 25,796 that amends Law No. 25,713, the CVS became unenforceable since April 1, 2004.

Protection for the Disabled Law. The Protection for the Disabled Law No. 22,431, enacted on March 20, 1981, as amended, provides that in connection with the construction and renovation of buildings, obstructions to access must be eliminated in order to enable access by handicapped individuals. In the construction of public buildings, entrances, transit pathways and adequate facilities for mobility impaired individuals must be provided for.
Buildings constructed before the enforcement of the Protection for the Disabled Law must be adapted to provide accesses, transit pathways and adequate facilities for mobility-impaired individuals. Those pre-existing buildings, which due to their architectural design may not be adapted to the use by mobility-impaired individuals, are exempted from the fulfillment of these requirements. The Protection for the Disabled Law provides that residential buildings must ensure access by mobility impaired individuals to elevators and aisles.
Credit Cards Law. Law No. 25,065, amended by Law No. 26,010 and Law No. 26,361, regulates different aspects of the business known as “credit card system.” The regulations impose minimum contractual contents and the approval thereof by the Industry, Commerce and Mining Secretary (Secretaría de Industria, Comercio y Minería de la Nación), as well as the limitations on the interest to be collected from users and the commissions charged the stores adhering to the system. The Credit Card Law applies to banking and non-banking cards, such as “Tarjeta Shopping”, issued by Tarshop.
Antitrust Law. Law No. 25,156, as amended, prevents trust practices and requires administrative authorization for transactions that according to the Antitrust Law constitute an economic concentration. According to this law, mergers, transfers of goodwill, acquisitions of property or rights over shares, capital or other convertible securities, or similar operations by which the acquirer controls or substantially influences a company, are considered as an economic concentration. Whenever an economic concentration involves a company or companies which exceed the accumulated sales volume by approximately Ps.200.0 million in Argentina; then the respective concentration should be submitted for approval to the Comisión Nacional de Defensa de la Competencia, or Antitrust Authority. The request for approval may be filed, either prior to the transaction or within a week after its completion.
When a request for approval is filed, the Antitrust Authority may (i) authorize the transaction, (ii) subordinate the transaction to the accomplishment of certain conditions, or (iii) reject the authorization.
The Antitrust Law provides that economic concentrations in which the transaction amount and the value of the assets absorbed, acquired, transferred or controlled in Argentina, do not exceed Ps.20.0 million are exempted from the administrative authorization. Notwithstanding the foregoing, when the transactions effected during the prior 12-month period exceed in total Ps.20.0 million or Ps.60.0 million in the last 36 months, these transactions must be notified to the Antitrust Authority.
As the consolidated annual sales volume of APSA and IRSA exceed Ps.200.0 million, we should give notice to the Antitrust Authority of any concentration provided for by the Antitrust Law.
Environmental Regulation. IRSA’s activities are subject to a number of national, provincial and municipal environmental provisions. Section 41 of the Argentine Constitution, as amended in 1994, provides that all Argentine inhabitants have the right to a healthy and balanced environment fit for human development and have the duty to preserve it. Environmental damage shall bring about primarily the obligation to restore it as provided by applicable law. The authorities shall see to the protection of this right, the rational use of natural resources, the preservation of the natural and cultural heritage and of biodiversity, and shall also provide for environmental information and education. The National Government shall establish minimum standards for environmental protection whereas Provincial and Municipal Governments shall fix specific standards and regulatory provisions.
On November 6, 2009, the Argentine Congress passed Law No. 25,675. Such law regulates the minimum standards for the achievement of a sustainable environment and the preservation and protection of biodiversity and fixes environmental policy goals.
- 88 -

Law No. 25,675 establishes the activities that will be subject to an environmental impact assessment procedure and certain requirements applicable thereto. In addition, such Law sets forth the duties and obligations that will be triggered by any damage to the environment and mainly provides for restoration of the environment to its former condition or, if that is not technically feasible, for payment of a compensation in lieu thereof. Such Law also fosters environmental education and provides for certain minimum reporting obligations to be fulfilled by natural and legal entities.
On August 6, 2009, the Comisión Nacional de Valores issued General Resolution No. 559/2009 (“General Resolution No. 559/2009”) providing for the rules applicable to listed companies whose corporate purpose comprise activities regarded as risky for the environment, in order to keep the shareholders, investors and the general public informed about the fulfillment of current environmental regulations. As of the date hereof, such Resolution has not been regulated as provided for therein.
One of IRSA’s goals is that business be conducted at all times consistently with environmental laws and regulations.
For more information see Item 3 d. "Risk Factors - IRSA’s business is subject to extensive regulation and additional regulations may be imposed in the future."
Property

This new contract provides a new extension for an additional three years if AGSA determines it necessary. It also establishes a maximum period of 24 months (counted from the day of signing the contract) to carry out the works and opening of the shopping center. The aformentioned contract established a new monthly fee of Ps. 0.2 million (plus VAT) until December 31, 2025, and Ps. 0.25 million (plus VAT) from January 1, 2026. Additionaly to secure the fulfillment of the agreement, we commited to hire a surety bond for Ps. 4.46 million to make a cash deposit of Ps. 0.4 million and to hire another surety bond in favor of ADIF as collateral to the execution of the works agreed in due time and proper form for Ps. 14,950. This agreement replaces the one subscribed with ONABE.

Insurance
IRSA carries insurance policies with insurance companies that it considers to be financially sound. IRSA purchases multiple peril insurance for the shopping centers covering fire and negligence liability, electrical or water damages, theft and business interruption. IRSA has submitted a limited number of claim reports under the shopping center insurance, including a claim for a reported loss caused by fire in Alto Avellaneda Shopping on March 5, 2006 and, as of this date IRSA has been able to recover substantially all such claims from the insurance companies.
In our Development and Sale of Properties segment, IRSA only maintains insurance when it retains ownership of the land under development or when IRSA develops the property itself. The liability and fire insurance policies cover potential risks such as property damage, business interruption, fire, falls, collapse, lightning and gas explosion. Such insurance policies contain specifications, limits and deductibles which we believe are customary. IRSA maintains insurance policies for the properties after the end of construction only if it retains ownership, primarily in the Offices and Other Properties segment.
IRSA carries insurance for directors and officers covering management's civil liability, as well as legally mandated insurance, including employee personal injury. IRSA does not provide life or disability insurance for its employees as benefits. IRSA believes its insurance policies are adequate to protect it against the risks for which it is covered. Nevertheless, no assurances can be given that the insurance amount purchased by IRSA will be enough to protect itself from significant losses. See “Risk Factors—Risks Related to IRSA’s Business.” Some potential losses are not covered by insurance, and certain kinds of insurance coverage may become prohibitively expensive.

Insurance
Agricultural Business
We carry insurance policies with insurance companies that we consider to be financially sound.
We employ multi-risk insurance for our farming facilities and industrial properties, which covers property damage, negligence liability, fire, falls, collapse, lightning and gas explosion, electrical and water damages, theft, and business interruption.
- 94 -

Such insurance policies have specifications, limits and deductibles which we believe are customary. Nevertheless, they do not cover damages to our crops.
We carry directors and officer’s insurance covering management’s civil liability, as well as legally mandated insurance, including employee personal injury.
We also provide life or disability insurance for our employees as benefits.
We believe our insurance policies are adequate to protect us against the risks for which we are covered. Nevertheless, some potential losses are not covered by insurance and certain kinds of insurance coverage may become prohibitively expensive.
The types of insurance used by us are the following:

Insured property | Risk covered |  | Amount insured in Thousand of Pesos |  |  | Book value in Thousand of Pesos |
Buildings, machinery, silos and furniture | Theft, fire and technical insurance |  |  | 203,171 |  |  |  | 46,630 |

Item 5. Operating financial review and prospects
A. CONSOLIDATED OPERATING RESULTS
The following management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read together with “Selected Consolidated Financial Data” and our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this annual report. This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. These forward-looking statements include such words as, “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “believes” and similar language. Our actual results may differ materially and adversely from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including without limitation those set forth elsewhere in this annual report. See Item 3 d. d. “Risk Factors” for a more complete discussion of the economic and industry-wide factors relevant to us and the opportunities and challenges as a result of the global economic crisis, and risks on which we are focused.
For purposes of the following discussion, unless otherwise specified, references to fiscal years 2012, 2011, and 2010 relate to the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.
Effective October 1, 2008, we started consolidating the accounts of IRSA after a series of acquisitions, which increased our ownership interest in IRSA to 54.01%. Accordingly, the consolidated statement of income for the year ended June 30, 2009 includes (i) the results of IRSA as an equity investee from July 1, 2008 through September 30, 2008; and (ii) the results of operations of IRSA consolidated into ours for nine months from October 1, 2008 through June 30, 2009. The consolidated statement of income for the year ended June 30, 2008 is not comparable to either the June 30, 2009, 2010, 2011 or 2012.
For a discussion of results of operations of IRSA and to assist in understanding changes in the real estate business, please see “Item 5 Operating and financial review and prospects” in IRSA's annual report on Form 20-F for IRSA the year ended June 30, 2012 which is publicly available on SEC's website (www.sec.gov). The discussion and analysis of IRSA is for the full annual periods ended June 30, 2012 compared to June 30, 2011, and June 30, 2011 compared to June 30, 2010.
The management's discussion and analysis of IRSA’s operating financial review and prospects included in IRSA's 20-F for the year ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 is referred only on a supplemental basis only.
We maintain our financial books and records in Pesos. Except as mentioned in the following paragraph, we prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with Argentine GAAP and the regulations of the Comisión Nacional de Valores which differ in significant respects from U.S. GAAP. These differences involve methods of measuring the amounts shown in the financial statements as well as additional disclosures required by U.S. GAAP and Regulation S-X of the SEC. See Note 29 to our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this annual report for a description of the principal differences between Argentine GAAP and U.S. GAAP, as they relate to us, and reconciliation to U.S. GAAP of our net income and shareholders’ equity.
In order to comply with the regulations of the Argentine Securities Commission, we discontinued adjustment for inflation as of March 1, 2003 and we recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities on a non-discounted basis. These accounting practices differ from the Argentine GAAP. However, we consider that those departures have not had a significant impact on our financial statements.
Effects of inflation
From 1997 until the end of year 2001, the Argentine government’s policies substantially reduced the level of inflation. Therefore, during that period inflation did not significantly affect our financial condition and results of operations. The following are annual inflation rates since 2002, published by the Argentine Ministry of Economy and Production:
- 95 -

Year ended June 30, |  | Consumer Price Index |  |  | Wholesale Price Index |
2002 |  |  | 28.4 |  |  |  | 88.2 |
2003 |  |  | 10.2 |  |  |  | 8.1 |
2004 |  |  | 4.9 |  |  |  | 8.6 |
2005 |  |  | 9.0 |  |  |  | 7.7 |
2006 |  |  | 11.0 |  |  |  | 12.1 |
2007 |  |  | 8.8 |  |  |  | 9.4 |
2008 |  |  | 9.3 |  |  |  | 13.8 |
2009 |  |  | 5.26 |  |  |  | 5.4 |
2010 |  |  | 11.0 |  |  |  | 15.2 |
2011 |  |  | 9.67 |  |  |  | 12.5 |
2012 |  |  | 9.00 |  |  |  | 12.8 |

The increase in inflation may erode our present macroeconomic stability, causing a negative impact on our operations. The wholesale price index increased by 6.45% in the first six months of 2012, and the Consumer Price Index increased 5.89% in the same period.
Effects of interest rate fluctuations
Most of our U.S.dollar denominated debt accrues interest at a fixed rate. An increase in interest rates will not necessary result in a significant increase in our financial costs and may not materially affect our financial condition and our results of operations.
Effects of foreign currency fluctuations
A significant portion of our financial debt is denominated in U.S. dollars. Therefore, a devaluation of the Argentine Peso against the U.S.dollar would increase our U.S. dollar- denominated indebtedness measured in Pesos and materially affect our results of operations. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations significantly increase the risk of default on our mortgages and lease receivables. Due to the fact that many of our customers have their cash flows in Pesos, a fluctuation of exchange rate may increase their U.S.dollar-denominated liabilities. Foreign currency exchange restrictions that may be imposed by the Argentine Government could prevent or restrict our access to U.S. dollars, affecting our ability to service our U.S. dollar denominated liabilities.
Factors Affecting Comparability
We describe below certain factors affecting the comparability of our results of operations from period to period. These factors are based upon currently available information and do not represent all of the factors that are relevant to an understanding of our current and future results of operations. For ease of presentation, we divided these factors into factors affecting comparability within our Agricultural business and Real estate business, respectively.
In addition, our results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2009 were affected by the consolidation of the results of operations of IRSA as from October 1, 2008. Prior to October 1, 2008, our investment in IRSA was accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Thus, our results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2008 are not fully comparable to the results of operations for the year ended June 30, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 in regards to the Real estate business.
Agricultural Business
Purchase and Sales of Farmlands
Our strategy includes the identification, acquisition, exploitation and selective disposition of rural properties that have attractive prospects for long-term value appreciation. As a part of this strategy, from time to time, we purchase and sell farmlands. The acquisition or disposition of farmlands in any given period may make the production results of that period difficult to compare to those of other periods.
Seasonality
Like any other agribusiness company, our business activities are inherently seasonal. Harvest and sales of grains (corn, soybean and sunflower) in general take place from February to June. Wheat is harvested from December to January. With respect to our international market, climate conditions in Bolivia allow a double season of soybean, corn and sorghum production and, accordingly, these crops are harvested in April and October, while wheat and sunflower are harvested during August and September, respectively. Other segments of our activities, such as our sales of cattle and milk and our forestry activities, are not as influenced by seasonal factors. However, the production of beef and milk is generally higher during the second quarter, when pasture conditions are more favorable. Therefore, there may be significant variations in results from one quarter to the other.
Real Estate Business
Sale of properties
Income derived from the lease of office space and retail stores and sales of properties are two core sources of income. The historical results of our operations have varied over different periods based on the prevailing opportunities in connection with the sale of properties. No assurance can be given that our results will not continue to be influenced by the periodical sale of properties.
Seasonality
APSA’s “shopping centers” business unit is subject to strong seasonality. During the summer holiday season (January and February) IRSA’s tenants experience their minimum sales levels, compared to the winter holiday season (July) and December (Christmas) when IRSA’s tenants tend to reach their peak sales figures. Clothes and footwear tenants tend to change their collections in the spring and fall. This has a positive effect on the sales of stores. Discount sales at the end of each season also have a major impact on our business.
Recent Sale of 80% of our Consumer Finance Business
In recent years, we have operated an important consumer financing business through our subsidiary Metroshop and our affiliate Tarshop. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009, 2010 and 2011, this consumer financing business represented 45.5%, 36.9% and 33.8%, respectively, of APSA’s revenues. In December 2009, we entered into an agreement for the sale of 80% of Tarshop’s stock to Banco Hipotecario for US$26.8 million. On August 30, 2010, the Central Bank notified Banco Hipotecario of the approval of the transaction, and the transaction was closed on September 13, 2010. Immediately after the sale, our interest in Tarshop was reduced to 20% of its capital stock. Because we sold 80% of Tarshop in September 2010, our results for fiscal years 2011 and 2012 will not be comparable to our results in past fiscal years.

Critical Accounting Policies
We prepared our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with Argentine GAAP. The critical accounting policies are policies important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and operating results, and which require management to make difficult and subjective judgments that are inherently uncertain. In the application of these accounting policies, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates and judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We believe that the estimates and judgments upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time these estimates and judgments are made. We continually evaluate our judgments, estimates and assumptions. To the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our financial statements will be significantly affected. Based on the above, we have identified the following significant accounting policies as critical to the understanding of our financial statements:

| • | business combinations;
| • | provision for allowances and contingencies;
| • | impairment of long-lived assets;
| • | derivative instruments;
| • | deferred income tax;
| • | minimum presumed income tax (“MPIT”); and
| • | negative goodwill, net.

Business combinations
Significant acquisitions are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method, the purchase price is allocated to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on their respective fair values in accordance with the provisions of RT No. 18. In making estimates of fair values, management utilizes a number of various sources.
When we acquire properties, for fair value estimation purposes, we also consider information about each property obtained as a result of pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing and leasing activities. We allocate a portion of the purchase price to tangible assets including the fair value of the building on an as-if-vacant basis and to land determined either by real estate tax assessments, third-party appraisals or other relevant data. Generally we determine the as-if-vacant value by using a replacement cost method. Also, a portion of the purchase price is allocated to above-market and below-market in-place lease values for acquired properties based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining noncancelable term of the lease. The capitalized above-market and below-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of or an addition to rental income over the remaining noncancelable terms of the respective leases. Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the lease intangibles would be charged or credited to income. A portion of the purchase price is also allocated to the value of leases acquired and management utilizes independent sources or management's determination of the relative fair values of the respective in-place lease values. Our estimates are made using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by management in performing these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods, considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand. We also estimate costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal expenses and other related costs. Other intangible assets acquired may include tenant relationships which are valued based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and our overall relationship with the respective tenant. We have not identified any lessee with whom it has developed a type of relationship allowing the recognition of an intangible asset. As far as banking operations are concerned, identifiable intangible assets, comprised of core deposit intangibles and customer relationship intangibles, represent the net present value of the future economy.
In some instances, the determination of fair values requires management to make significant assumptions with respect to the timing and amount of future revenues and expenses associated with an asset. Actual timing and amount of net cash flows from revenues and expenses related to that asset over time may differ materially from those initial estimates, and if the timing is delayed significantly or if the net cash flows decline significantly, the asset could become impaired.
Provisions for allowances and contingencies
We provide for losses relating to mortgage and accounts receivable. The allowance for losses is based on the management’s assessment of various factors, including the customers’ credit risk, historical trends and other information. Although our management uses the information available to make assessments, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if future economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used at the time of the determination. Our management has considered all events and/or transactions subject to reasonable and standard estimation procedures. The consolidated financial statements reflect these considerations.
We have certain contingent liabilities with respect to existing or potential claims, lawsuits and other proceedings, including those involving labor and other matters. We accrue liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are based on developments to date, our estimate of the outcomes of these matters and our lawyers’ experience in contesting, litigating and settling other matters. As the scope of the liabilities becomes better defined, there may be changes in the estimates of future costs, which could have material effect on our future results of operations and financial condition or liquidity.
We believe that this accounting policy is a “critical accounting policy” because if the future conditions were materially different from the assumptions used to make the assessments, it might cause a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Impairment of long-lived assets
We periodically evaluate the carrying value of our long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. We consider the carrying value of a long-lived asset to be impaired when the expected cash flows from the asset may be separately identified and are lower than their carrying value. In such case, a loss would be recognized based on the amount that the carrying value exceeds the long lived asset’s market value. We determine market value principally by using valuations made by independent valuation experts.
A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed when there is a subsequent change in estimates used to compute the fair market value of the asset. In that event, the new carrying value of the asset is the lower of its fair market value or the net carrying value the asset would have had if no impairment had been recognized. Both the impairment charge and the impairment reversal are recognized in earnings.

Agricultural Business
We believe that the accounting policy concerning the impairment of long-lived assets is a critical accounting policy, because considerable judgment is necessary to determine the fair value of farms. Although farms are non-depreciable assets, in determining these values we consider: (i) their geographical location and climate; (ii) the conditions and features of the soil; (iii) the kind and quality of any improvements made; and (iv) their exploitation and return potential.
Real Estate Business
We believe that the accounting estimate related to asset impairment is a “critical accounting estimate” because:

| • | it is highly susceptible to change from period to period because it requires company management and/or independent appraisers to make assumptions such as, future sales and cost of sale, future vacancy rates and future prices, which requires significant adjustments because actual prices and vacancy rates have fluctuated in the past and are expected to continue to do so; and
| • | the impact that recognizing an impairment would have on assets reported on IRSA’s balance sheet as well as on the results of its operations could be material.

With respect to our Hotel segment, the discounted cash flows methodology was applied by taking the forecasts of each hotel’s cash flow over our remaining useful life and discounting such estimated amounts at rates according to risk, location and other relevant factors. The cash flows to be discounted considered revenues per room, per guest, per additional charge as well as the fixed and variable expenditures related to the transaction. Seasonal or exceptional issues that adversely impacted on the result of hotel occupancy rates for the last year were not considered in the analyses.
Shopping centers were valued according to the rent value method. We calculated discount rates considering each property’s location, the comparability with other properties in the market, our historic rental income, vacancy rates and cash flow. The average discount rates we used was 11.69%. As in the case of offices, cash flows of results after income taxes and depreciation were considered, analyzing the periods for the remaining useful life of each asset.
We used the open market method for determining the fair market value of our land reserves and inventories. We estimated the value of each site by taking into consideration the value of the property according to its surface area and location and construction potential, as well as the availability of inventory less cost to sale.
Derivative instruments
We record all derivative instruments as assets or liabilities on our balance sheet at fair value. We record changes in the fair value of derivatives in the statement of income.
Deferred income tax
We record income taxes using the deferred tax liability method. Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequence attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recorded or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. “Technical Resolution No. 17” requires companies to record an impairment allowance for that component of net deferred tax assets which is not recoverable. We have treated the differences between the price-level restated amounts of assets and liabilities and their historical basis as permanent differences for deferred income tax calculation purposes.
At year-end there are temporary net liabilities (tax liabilities) mainly originated in the beef cattle valuation and the sale and replacement of fixed assets. Our Management has made estimates that allow us to recognize this deferred tax.
We believe that the accounting estimate related to deferred income tax is a “critical accounting estimate” because:

| • | it is highly susceptible to change from period to period because it requires management to make assumptions, such as future revenues and expenses, exchange rates and inflation, among others; and
| • | the impact that calculating income tax using this method would have on assets or liabilities reported on our consolidated balance sheet as well as on the income tax expense reported in our consolidated statement of income could be material.

Minimum presumed income tax (“MPIT”)
We calculate the minimum presumed income tax provision by applying the current 1% rate on computable assets at the end of the year. This tax complements the income tax. Our tax obligation each year will coincide with the highest amount due under either of these two taxes. However, if the minimum presumed income tax provision exceeds income tax in a given year, the amount in excess of income tax can be offset against income tax arising in any of the following ten years.
We have recognized the minimum presumed income tax provision paid in previous years as a credit as we estimate that it will offset with future years’ income tax.
We believe that the accounting policy relating to the minimum presumed income tax provision is a “critical accounting policy” because it requires management to make estimates and assumptions with respect to our future results that are highly susceptible to change from period to period, and as such the impact on our financial position and results of operations could be material.
Negative goodwill, net
Negative goodwill, net represents the net effect of goodwill and negative goodwill arising out of business combinations.
Negative goodwill:
Negative goodwill represents the excess of fair value of net assets acquired over cost. Under Argentine GAAP, when negative goodwill exists, acquired intangible assets are assigned a zero value. Negative goodwill is accounted for as follows: (i) the portion of negative goodwill related to future expected losses is recognized in income in the same periods losses are incurred; (ii) the amount exceeding the interest over the non monetary assets is recognized in income at acquisition date; and (iii) the amount not in excess of the equity interest over the non monetary assets is recognized as negative goodwill and amortized under the straight line method over the weighted average useful lives of the identifiable assets of the acquire, not exceeding 20 years.
- 98 -

Goodwill:
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net identifiable assets and is amortized under the straight-line method over the weighted average useful life of the main tangible assets acquired.
The carrying amount does not exceed their respective estimated recoverable value at the end of this year.

In addition, certain other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP have been included in the U.S. GAAP reconciliation. See Note 31 to our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this annual report.
Net income under Argentine GAAP for the years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 was approximately Ps. 78.3 million, Ps.221.9 million, and Ps. 198.6 million, respectively, compared to approximately Ps. 81.2 million, Ps. 758.8 million and Ps. 193.4 million, respectively, under U.S. GAAP. Shareholders’ equity under Argentine GAAP as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, was Ps. 2,063.3 million and Ps. 2,101.7 million, respectively, compared to Ps. 2,379.4 million and Ps. 2,461.5 million, respectively, under U.S. GAAP.

Segment Information
We are required to disclose segment information in accordance with RT 18. RT 18 establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires reporting of selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. Operating segments are components of a company about which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker(s) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The statement also establishes standards for related disclosures about a company’s products and services, geographical areas and major customers.
As discussed in Note 2.b) to our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements, during fiscal year 2009 we acquired an additional 11.57% equity interest in IRSA and increased its ownership interest to 53.7%. Thus, effective October 1, 2008, we started consolidating the accounts of IRSA on a line-by-line basis.
In December 2010, we made a capital contribution to Cactus, increasing our equity interest to 80% and gained control over the entity. This entity is primarily involved in agro-industrial and industrial-related activities which require further processes to the cattle primary operations. Cactus owns a slaughter house which processes meat sourced from our own cattle or other third parties as needed. Cattle is fed in Cactus's feedlots prior to being slaughtered and processed.
Upon gaining control of the entity and started receiving consolidating information for Cactus, the chief operating decision maker(s) revised its internal reporting structure and made the following changes:

| - | The slaughtering and processing of meat and its associated feedlot operations are considered a separate business -although related- and is reviewed separately as such by the chief operating decision maker(s). These activities are referred to in the reporting to the chief operating decision maker(s) as "Slaughtering and Feedlot business";

| - | Our agricultural business now includes only farming activities or primary activities which do not have any industrial or industrial-related processes;

| - | The "Agriculture business and the Slaughtering and Feedlot business" comprises our Agribusiness activities; and,

| - | The Real Estate Business remained unchanged.

Each of the Agriculture, Slaughtering and Feedlot, and Real Estate businesses comprises several reportable segments which are described in detail further below. These changes in the current internal reporting structure have been retroactively reflected in the segment information of prior years. However, for the year ended June 30, 2010, the Slaughtering and Feedlot business does not include the consolidated accounts of Cactus because we did not have control of the entity for that period. Rather Cactus is reflected as an equity-method investee for that period and performance measured based on the gain or loss from the equity investee.
Following is a description of the reportable segments within our Agricultural Slaughtering/ Feed Lot and Real Estate businesses.
A. Agriculture business:
Our agricultural operations are conducted through six business segments organized primarily on a product-line basis, with each segment offering a variety of different but interrelated products. Our agricultural operations are subject to various risks, including but not limited to market prices for commodities, weather conditions and environmental concerns. One of our cornerstones is the transformation of farmland through its agricultural activities. Ultimately, we may sell farmland to make a profit from land value appreciation opportunities and which, in the judgment of management, are a surplus to our primary operations. Gains on the sale of farmland properties are presented in “Sales of farmlands” in the consolidated statements of income.
For all years presented our principal operations were located in Argentina, our country of domicile. For the years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, our international operations were concentrated in Brazil through our equity investment in BrasilAgro. As discussed above, for the year ended June 30, 2012, we continued its business in Brazil while expanding our international operations to Bolivia and Paraguay.
Our business segments within the Agriculture business are as follows:

| • | The Crops Segment includes the planting and harvesting and sale of fine and coarse grains and oilseeds, including wheat, corn, soybeans and sunflowers.
| • | The Beef Cattle Segment consists of the raising and fattening of beef cattle from our own cattle stock and the purchase and fattening of beef cattle for sale to meat processors.
| • | The Milk Segment consists of the production of milk for sale to dairy companies.
| • | Others Segment consists of services and leasing of our farms to third parties and brokerage activities.
| • | Farmland Sales Segment consists of gains from the sale of farmland to profit from land value appreciation opportunities as part of our land transformation objectives.
| • | Non-Operating Segment includes gains or losses from equity investees and depreciation for corporate assets.

We evaluate the performance of our Agriculture business segments based on gross income (loss) from agricultural production plus gross income from sales - including sales of products and farmland - less selling and administrative expenses, plus unrealized gains or losses on inventories. The column titled “Sub-Total Agriculture business” represents the addition of the segment gains or losses from the Crops (Domestic and International, as applicable), Beef Cattle, Milk, Feedlot (as applicable), Others and Farmland Sales Segments. Excluded from total segment gains or losses are the gains or losses from our other equity investees included in the Non-Operating Segment.
Accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Intercompany transactions between segments, if any, are eliminated.

B. Slaughtering / Feed lot business
Our slaughtering / Feed lot operations are conducted through our subsidiary Cactus. This segment’s main business is the production of meat under the so-called “feedlot fattening” method and slaughtering.
The feedlot cattle beef production is processed in Exportaciones Agroindustriales Argentina S.A.’s packing plant for the domestic and foreign markets. Feedlot fattening with a corn-based diet has been growing at a very dynamic pace. The company has gained market reputation due to a consistent final product offered by feedlot-finished animals, which provides purchasers with high-quality products and higher yields, succeeding in offering differential sales prices. Cactus continues to receive cattle from farmers that repeat their productive process whereby they breed and re-breed their animals in their own farms and finish them at Cactus.
Real Estate Business
We have determined that the business units to be reported are those that rely on the management information generated by us. Therefore, we have six business units for reporting purposes: “Shopping Centers,” “Consumer Financing,” “Development and Sale of Properties,” “Office and Other Non-Shopping Center Rental Properties,” “Hotels” and “Financial Operations and Others.”
The real estate business is further segmented as follows:
Shopping Centers: this segment includes the operating results of the shopping centers principally comprised of lease and service revenues from tenants.
Consumer Financing: this segment includes the origination of loans and credit card receivables and related securitization programs. In September 2010, we sold 80% of Tarshop’s stock to Banco Hipotecario for US$26.8 million and retained the remaining 20%. As a result of this sale, the Consumer financing segment has a less significant impact on our results of operations going forward.
Development and Sale of Properties: this segment includes the operating results of the construction and ultimate sale of residential buildings business.
Office and Other Non-Shopping Center Rental Properties: this segment includes the operating results of the lease and service revenues of office space and other Non-Shopping Center Rental Properties from tenants.
Hotels: this segment includes the operating results of hotels principally comprised of room, catering and restaurant revenues.
Financial Operations and Others: this segment primarily includes revenues and associated costs generated from the sale of equity securities, other securities-related transactions and other non-core activities. This segment also includes the results from related companies associated with the banking business.
Each one of the following segments: Shopping centers, Consumer financing and Hotels manages its financial transactions individually. The gains/losses on said transactions are directly allocated to these segments. The financial gains or losses unrelated to these business units are shown in the Financial transactions and other segment as they are not specifically generated by any other segment separately, except Interest income and Interest expenses, which are prorated among all the segments in proportion to the corresponding assets to each segment.

Cresud’s Results of Operations
Effective July 1, 2006, we adopted RT No. 22 which prescribes the accounting treatment, financial statement presentation, and disclosures related to agricultural activity. Agricultural activity is the management by an entity of the biological transformation of living animals or plants (biological assets) for sale, into agricultural produce, or into additional biological assets. RT No. 22 prescribes, among other things, the accounting treatment for biological assets during the period of growth, degeneration, production, and procreation, and for the initial measurement of agricultural produce at the point of harvest. It requires measurement at fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs from initial recognition of biological assets up to the point of harvest, other than when fair value cannot be measured reliably on initial recognition. RT No. 22 requires that a change in fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs of a biological asset be included in profit or loss for the period in which it arises. RT No. 22 also requires that gains or losses arising on initial recognition of agricultural produce at fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs to be included in profit or loss for the period in which it arises. In agricultural activity, a change in physical attributes of a living animal or plant directly enhances or diminishes economic benefits to the entity. RT No. 22 is applied to agricultural produce, which is the harvested product of the entity’s biological assets, only at the point of harvest. Accordingly, RT No. 22 does not deal with the processing of agricultural produce after harvest; for example, the processing of milk into cheese.
Biological transformation comprises the processes of growth, degeneration, production, and procreation that cause qualitative or quantitative changes in a biological asset. Biological assets are living unharvested crops, heads of cattle and milking cows. Agricultural produce such as harvested crops, beef, milk and raw materials are the harvested product of biological assets. Biological transformation results in the following types of outcomes: asset changes through (i) growth (an increase in quantity or improvement in quality of an animal or plant), (ii) degeneration (a decrease in the quantity or deterioration in quality of an animal or plant), or (iii) procreation (creation of additional living animals or plants).
The adoption of RT No. 22 did not have an impact in our measurement and recognition of biological transformation. Rather, it changed the format of our Consolidated Income Statement. Under RT No. 22 we break down the components of our costs as separate line items in the Consolidated Income Statement. There was no change in our gross profit for any of the periods presented.
Prior to the adoption of RT No. 22 gains or losses arising from initial recognition of biological assets and agricultural produce as well as changes in biological assets were included as a deduction from costs of sales. Under RT No. 22 these changes are disclosed separately in our Consolidated Income Statement under the line item titled “Production income”.
Also, prior to the adoption of RT No. 22, costs directly related to the transformation of biological assets and agricultural produce were also included as an addition to costs of sales. Under RT No. 22, these costs are disclosed separately in our consolidated income statement under the line item titled “Cost of production” due to the direct relationship to the transformation of biological assets and agricultural produce.
The adoption of RT No. 22 did not affect our recognition of revenue which is included in the line item titled “Sales” in our consolidated income statement. As a result of the adoption of RT No. 22, our costs of sales show direct costs related to the sales of agricultural produce other than selling expenses. RT No. 22 intends to purport that costs of sales are not significant in agricultural activities while costs of biological transformation into agricultural produce represent the major costs of these activities.
- 105 -

In addition, under RT No. 22, the exhibits entitled “Cost of Sales” and “Cost of Production” included in our consolidated financial statements present a reconciliation of changes in the carrying amount of biological assets between the beginning and the end of the relevant periods. This reconciliation includes (a) the gain or loss arising from changes in fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs; (b) increases due to purchases; (c) decreases attributable to sales and biological assets classified as held for sale; (d) increases due to harvest;(e) other changes.
The following terms used herein with the meanings specified:
Agricultural Business
Production Income. We recognize production income when there is a change in biological assets. For example, we recognize production income when crops are harvested or a cow is born or gains a certain amount of weight. Biological assets are living animals or plants, such as unharvested crops, heads of cattle and milking cows. Agricultural produce such as harvested crops, beef, milk and raw materials are the harvested product of biological assets.
Cost of Production. Our cost of production consists of costs directly related to the transformation of biological assets and agricultural produce.
Sales. Our sales consist of revenue on the sales of crops, milk, feed lot, and beef cattle. Sales are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenue from cattle feeding operations, primarily comprised of feeding, animal health and yardage, and revenue from operating leases and brokerage activities are recognized as services are performed.
Sales of Farmland. Our sales consist of revenue on the sales of farmlands. We record farmland sales under the applicable accounting standards and do not recognize such sales until (i) the sale is consummated (a sale is not considered consummated until: (a) the parties are bound by the terms of a contract, (b) all contract terms and conditions have been considered, (c) any financing for which the seller is responsible has been arranged and (d) all conditions precedent to closing have been performed); (ii) we determine that the buyer’s initial and continuing investments in the property being sold are adequate to demonstrate its commitment to pay for the property (the adequacy is measured by its financial capacity and size compared with the sale value of the property); (iii) the corresponding receivable is not subject to future subordination (our receivable will not be placed in or occupy a lower rank, class or position with respect to other obligations of the buyer) and (iv) we have transferred to the buyer the usual risks and rewards of ownership and have no continuing substantial involvement in the property.
Cost of Sales. Our cost of sales consists of its net realizable value.
Cost of Farmland Sales. Our cost of farmland sales consists of its book value and indirect costs related to the disposition of farmlands.
Results from inventory holding and transactions in the Buenos Aires Futures and Options Exchange Market and Chicago Board of Trade (“CBOT”). Our gain from inventory holding consists of the changes in the carrying amount of biological assets between the beginning and the end of fiscal year and transactions in the Buenos Aires Futures and Options Exchange Market and CBOT.
Real Estate Business
Sales and development of properties: We record revenue from the sale of properties when all of the following criteria are met: (i) the sale has been consummated; (ii) we determine that the buyer’s initial and continuing investments are adequate to demonstrate a commitment to pay for the property, (iii) our receivable is not subject to future subordination; and (iv) we have transferred to the buyer the risk and rewards of ownership and do not have a continuing involvement in the property.
In addition, we use the percentage-of-completion method of accounting with respect to sales of development properties under construction. Under this method, revenue is recognized based on the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs according to budgeted costs. We do not commence revenue and cost recognition until such time as the decision to proceed with the project is made and construction activities have begun. The percentage-of-completion method of accounting requires that our Management to prepare budgeted costs in connection with sales of properties/units. All changes to estimated costs of completion are incorporated into revised estimates during the contract period.
Income from lease and service of offices, shopping centers, hotels, consumer financing and others

| • | Income from lease and service of offices: Revenues from leases are recognized on a straight –line basis over the life of the related lease contracts.
| • | Income from admission rights and rental of stores and stands “Shopping Centers”: Leases with tenants are accounted for as operating leases. Tenants are generally charged a rent, which consists of the higher of (i) a monthly base rent (the “Base Rent”) and (ii) a specified percentage of the tenant’s monthly gross revenues (the “Percentage Rent”) (which generally ranges between 4% and 10% of tenant’s gross revenues).

Furthermore, pursuant to the rent escalation in most leases, the tenant’s Base Rent generally increases between 7% and 12% each year during the term of the lease. Minimum rental income is recognized following on the accrued criteria.
Certain lease agreements contain provisions, which provide for rents based on a percentage of sales or based on a percentage of revenues volume above a specified threshold. We determine the compliance with specific targets and calculate the additional rent on a monthly basis as provided for in the contracts. Thus, these contingent rents are not recognized until the required thresholds are exceeded.
Generally, our lease agreements vary from 36 to 120 months. Law No. 24,808 provides that tenants may rescind commercial lease agreements after the initial six-months, upon not less than 60 days´ written notice, subject to penalties which vary from one to one and a half months rent if the tenant rescinds during the first year of its lease, and one month of rent if the tenant rescinds after the first year of its lease.
Additionally, we charge our tenants monthly administration fees relating to the administration and maintenance of the common area and the administration of contributions made by tenants to finance promotional efforts for the overall shopping centers operations. The administration fees are prorated among the tenants according to their leases which vary from shopping center to shopping center. Administration fees are recognized monthly when earned.
- 106 -

In addition to rent, tenants are generally charged “admission rights”, a non refundable admission fee, that tenants may be required to pay upon entering into a lease or upon lease renewal. Admission right is normally paid in one lump sum or in a small number of monthly installments. Admission rights are recognized in earnings using the straight-line method over the life of the respective lease agreements.

| • | Income from Hotel operations: We recognize revenues from its rooms, catering and restaurant facilities as accrued on the close of each business day.
| • | Income from Credit card operations “Consumer Financing”: Revenues derived from credit card transactions consist of commissions and financing income, charges to clients for life and disability insurance and for statements of account, among other.

Commissions are recognized at the time the merchants’ transactions are processed, while the rest financial income is recognized when accrued. Income generated from granting consumer loans mainly includes financial interests, which are recognized by the accrued method during the fiscal year irrespective of whether collection has or has not been made.
OPERATING RESULTS
Fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 compared to fiscal year ended June 30, 2011
Production income
Production income was Ps. 700.4 million for fiscal year 2012, 72.3% higher than the amount recorded for the previous fiscal year. This was primarily due to a Ps. 268.4 million increase in our Crops segment (including Ps. 292.8 million from BrasilAgro partially offset by a decrease in local production income) and an Ps. 25.7 million increase in our Beef cattle segment.
Crops – Domestic market
Production income from our Crops segment in the local market decreased 9.1%, from Ps. 259.2 million for fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 235.6 million in fiscal year 2012, primarily as a result of:

| · | a 5.6% decrease in total production volumes, from 408,404 tons in fiscal year 2011 to 385,739 tons in fiscal year 2012, mainly due to a decrease in volumes of soybean (30.4%) and sorghum (35.61%) harvested, partially offset by an increase in volumes of sunflower (4.42%) and corn (1.03%) harvested from year to year; and
| · | a 3.8% decrease in average prices of grain production.

The 5.6% decrease in the production volume from our Crops segment in the local market was mainly due to a 6.7% decrease in our average yield, from 4.53 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2011 to 4.23 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2012, mainly due to the mix of grain harvested and unfavorable weather conditions. In addition, during fiscal year 2012 the surface area in operation increased from 90,150 hectares (including 10,401 hectares under concession) as of June 30, 2011 to 91,269 hectares (including 8,778 hectares under concession) as of June 30, 2012.
As of June 30, 2012, the harvested area was 83.3% of our total sown area, compared to 81.4% as of June 30, 2011.
The following table shows the board prices(1) as of June 30, 2012 and 2011:

|  | Fiscal year ended June 30, |

Crops – International market
Production income from our Crops segment in the international market increased 420.7%, from Ps. 69.4 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 361.5 million in fiscal year 2012, mainly as a result of:

| · | a 1,261.4% increase in total production volume from 58,506 tons in fiscal year 2011 to 796,510 tons in fiscal year 2012, mainly due to an increase in volumes of soybean (237.6%), corn (440.8%), sorghum (56.4%), sunflower (50.3%) and sugarcane (100%) harvested (in the last case, mainly because of the effect of BrasilAgro’s consolidation effective July 1, 2011);
| · | slightly offset by a 32.3% year-on-year decrease in volumes of wheat harvested; and
| · | a 61.7% decrease in the average price of grain production.

- 107 -

The 1,261.4% increase in production volume of our Crops segment in the international market resulted mainly from a larger surface area under operation, from 30,978 hectares in fiscal year 2011 to 109,602 hectares in fiscal year 2012 (63,410 hectares from BrasilAgro), and a 284.8% increase in our average yield from 1.89 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2011 to 7.27 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2012.
As of June 30, 2012, the harvested area was 82.0% of the total sown area, compared to 79.6% as of June 30, 2011.
Beef cattle
Production income from the Beef cattle segment increased 55.3%, from Ps. 46.6 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 72.3 million in fiscal year 2012, primarily as a result of:

| · | a 12.5% increase in the average price of kilogram of cattle produced, from Ps. 7.1 in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 8.0 in fiscal year 2012;
| · | a 38.1% increase in beef production volume, from 6,519 tons during fiscal year 2011 to 9,000 tons in fiscal year 2012, mainly due to a higher beef production volume in farms (24.3%) and feedlot (163.3%) in fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011; and
| · | a 44.5% increase in births during fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011.

The number of hectares dedicated to beef cattle production decreased from 102,279 hectares in fiscal year 2011 to 95,995 hectares in fiscal year 2012. This was mainly due to a smaller number of own hectares devoted to cattle production.
Milk
Production income from the Milk segment decreased 0.7%, from Ps. 31.3 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 31.1 million in fiscal year 2012. This decrease was mainly due to:

| · | a 15.5% reduction in milk production volumes, from 19.6 million liters in fiscal year 2011 to 16.6 million liters in this fiscal year. This decrease in production volume was mainly due to a lower average number of milking cows per day (from 2,816 in fiscal 2011 to 2,112 in fiscal 2012) as a result of the sale of “La Juanita” dairy farm by mid-fiscal year 2011, partially offset by a 12.6% increase in the efficiency level of average daily milk production per cow, from 19.1 liters in fiscal year 2011 to 21.5 liters in fiscal year 2012; and
| · | partially offset by a 14.6% increase in average prices of milk, from Ps. 1.45 per liter in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 1.66 per liter in fiscal year 2012.

Cost of production
Cost of production increased 119.0%, from Ps. 280.1 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 613.3 million in fiscal year 2012. This increase was mainly due to an Ps. 320.3 million increase in our Crops segment (including Ps. 281.9 million from BrasilAgro), an Ps. 9.4 million increase in our Beef cattle segment and an Ps. 3.5 million increase in our Milk segment.
Crops – Domestic market
Cost of production from our Crops segment in the local market increased 11.3%, from Ps. 190.4 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 211.9 million in fiscal year 2012, primarily as a consequence of:

· | a 11.3% increase in direct costs of production during fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011, primarily as a result of higher prices of leases and supplies used (agrochemicals and seeds);
· | partially offset by lower production volumes in fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011; and
· | a smaller number of hectares in operation in farms leased from third parties in fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011.

Total cost of production per ton increased 36.4%, from Ps. 413 in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 487 in fiscal year 2012, primarily as a result of higher direct costs of production and lower yields per hectare during fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011.
- 108 -

Crops – International market
Cost of production from our Crops segment in the international market increased 734.5% from PS. 40.7 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 339.6 million in fiscal year 2012, mainly due to:

| · | the effect of the consolidation of BrasilAgro effective July 1, 2011;
| · | higher production volumes in fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011;
| · | a larger number of hectares in operation in fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011; and
| · | a significant increase in direct costs of production during fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011, primarily as a result of higher prices of supplies used (agrochemicals and seeds).

The total cost of production per ton decreased 34.2% from Ps. 635 in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 418 in fiscal year 2012, mainly due to higher production yields compared to the previous fiscal year.
Beef Cattle
Production cost of the Beef Cattle segment increased 37.5% from Ps. 25.0 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 34.3 million in fiscal year 2012. The increase in production costs of the Beef Cattle segment during fiscal year 2012 was mainly due to:

| · | higher production volumes in fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011; and
| · | higher feed costs due to the increase of animals fattened in feedlots.

The increase in production volumes exceeded the rise in costs; therefore, the direct cost per kilogram produced decreased by 3.3% from Ps. 1.91 in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 1.85 in fiscal year 2012.
Milk
Cost of production of the Milk segment increased 14.6%, from Ps. 24.0 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 27.5 million in fiscal year 2012. This increase was mainly due to the impact of higher direct and indirect costs, affecting the cost of production per liter of milk, which increased from Ps. 1.22 in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 1.66 in fiscal year 2012.
Sales
Total sales increased 29.2%, from Ps. 2,133.8 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 2,757.4 million in fiscal year 2012. This was primarily due to a 93.1% increase in the Agriculture and cattle raising business, from Ps. 564.9 million in fiscal 2011 to Ps. 1,090.7 million in fiscal year 2012, a 21.1% reduction in Feedlot from Ps. 127.1 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 100.2 million in fiscal year 2012, because in fiscal year 2011 the results cover a period of six months, and a 8.6% increase in the Real estate business, from Ps. 1,441.9 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 1,566.5 million in fiscal year 2012.
Agriculture and cattle raising business
Sales increased 93.1% from Ps. 564.9 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 1,090.7 million in fiscal year 2012, as a result of an Ps. 414.0 million increase in the Crops segment (Ps. 367.1 million of which correspond to BrasilAgro), an Ps. 84.1 million increase in the Beef cattle segment, an Ps. 1.0 million decrease in the Milk segment, an Ps. 19.5 million increase in the Other segment, and an Ps. 9.2 million increase in the Sales of farms segment.
Crops – Domestic market
Sales from our Crops segment increased 13.4%, from Ps. 271.0 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 307.2 million in fiscal year 2012, primarily as a consequence of:

| · | a 13.7% increase in average prices of crops sold, from Ps. 889 per ton in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 1,011 per ton in fiscal year 2012;
| · | partially offset by a slight decrease of 163 tons in crops sold in fiscal year 2012 compared to the previous fiscal year; and
| · | a 5.6% decrease in production volume, from 408,404 tons in fiscal year 2011 to 385,739 tons in fiscal year 2012.
| · | During fiscal year 2012, due to larger stocks at the beginning of the year, smaller purchases and lower production volumes, there was a lower volume of crops at year-end.

Sales of farms
Sales from our Sales of farms segment increased 10.9% from Ps. 84.5 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 93.7 million in fiscal year 2012, mainly as a consequence of:

Feedlot/meat packing business
In December 2010, Cresud increased its interest in Cactus Argentina S.A. from 48% to 80%. Therefore, Cresud’s consolidated results for fiscal year 2011 include the results of Cactus Argentina S.A. only for the period from January 1 to June 30, 2011, whereas Cresud’s consolidated results for fiscal year 2012 include its results for the whole period, affecting the comparability of results. In addition, Cactus’ results are consolidated with those of Exportaciones Agroindustriales Argentinas S.A.; therefore, Cresud’s segment information includes a new segment known as Feedlot/meat packing as from the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.
Sales from the Feedlot/meat packing business decreased 21.1%, from Ps. 127.1 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 100.2 million in fiscal year 2012.
As concerns our Feedlot business, the reduction in sales was caused mainly by:

| · | a 30.52% reduction in the occupancy rate, from 74,539 heads in fiscal year 2011 to 51,791 heads in fiscal year 2012; and
| · | partially offset by a 21.9% increase in the average revenues per head, from Ps. 226 in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 275 in fiscal year 2012.

In connection with our Meat Packing business, the reduction in sales is explained mainly by the reduction in exports recorded in fiscal year 2012. While in the previous fiscal year we had met 100% of the Hilton quota allocated to us, of 622 tons, during fiscal year 2012 the Company exported 32% out of the 700 Hilton quota tons allocated to it. The decrease in EAASA’s exports implied increasing even further the share of sales in the domestic market, where most of the slaughterhouses are subject to less stringent quality standards and whose prices are also lower.
Real estate business
Sales from our Real estate business increased 8.6% from Ps. 1,441.9 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 1,566.5 million in fiscal year 2012. This was caused mainly by an Ps. 196.4 million increase in the Shopping centers segment and an Ps. 27.4 million increase in the Offices and other segment, partially offset by a reduction of Ps. 63.7 million in the Consumer finance segment due to the sale of the 80% equity interest in Tarshop S.A. (deconsolidation of its results as from September 1, 2010), of Ps. 22.9 million in the Hotels segment, and of Ps. 12.7 million in the Sales and Developments segment.
Cost of sales
Total cost of sales increased 33.7% from Ps. 1,206.2 million for fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 1,612.6 million in fiscal year 2012. This was mainly due to an increase of Ps. 468.2 million (101.1%) in the Agriculture and cattle raising business, from Ps. 463.2 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 931.4 million in fiscal year 2012, largely due to a cost of sales of Ps. 353.4 million added as a result of BrasilAgro’s consolidation effective July 1, 2011. This was partially offset by a 8.8% reduction in the Real estate business and an Ps. 7.1 million reduction in the Feedlot/meat packing business.
Agriculture and cattle raising business
Cost of sales for fiscal year 2012 increased 101.1% from Ps. 463.2 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 931.4 million in fiscal year 2012, primarily as a result of an Ps. 377.1 million increase in the Crops segment (including Ps. 353.4 million from BrasilAgro), an Ps. 68.3 million increase in the Beef cattle segment, an Ps. 5.4 million increase in the Other segment, and an Ps. 18.3 million increase in the Sales of farms segment, slightly offset by a reduction of Ps. 1.0 million in the Milk segment.

| · | slightly offset by a 0.1% reduction in the volume of tons sold compared to the previous fiscal year.

Crops – International market
Cost of sales from our Crops segment increased 558.3% from Ps. 64.4 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 424.0 million in fiscal year 2012, mainly as a result of:

| · | slightly offset by a 60.6% reduction in the average cost per ton of crops as compared to the previous fiscal year, from Ps. 1,234 in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 486 in fiscal year 2012, largely due to a 17.4% decrease in the average price per ton sold, from Ps. 624 in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 516 in fiscal year 2012.

Beef cattle

Sales of farms
Cost of sales from our Sales of farms segment increased significantly, from Ps. 29.9 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 48.2 million in fiscal year 2012, mainly as a consequence of:

| · | an increase of 23.4% in costs per head during this fiscal year, from Ps. 222 in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 274 in fiscal year 2012;
| · | a significant increase in the price of calves that affected the purchase-sale ratio as it impacted directly on costs due to the scarce supply of calves resulting from the breeders’ decision to rebreed and sell heavier cattle; and
| · | the end of the compensations granted to feedlot facilities.

In connection with our Meat Packing business, the reduction in sales was caused mainly by:

| · | the high prices of cattle, their main raw material, due to the scarce supply.

Real estate business

Operating income (loss) from our Feedlot/meat packing business decreased 270.1%, from a Ps. 8.2 million loss in fiscal year 2011 to a Ps. 30.4 million loss in fiscal year 2012, mainly due to the lower occupancy rate in the feedlot facilities and higher compensation and social security charges.
Real estate business
Operating income (loss) from the Real estate business increased 26.9%, from a Ps. 567.1 million gain in fiscal year 2011 to a Ps. 719.6 million gain in fiscal year 2012. This was mainly due to an Ps. 195.4 million increase in the Sales and Developments, Shopping Centers, and Office and Other segments, offset by a reduction of Ps. 42.9 million in the Hotels and Consumer finance segments.
Amortization of goodwill
The amortization of goodwill decreased 13.8%, from a Ps. 66.0 million gain during fiscal year 2011 to n Ps. 56.9 million gain in fiscal year 2012. This was mainly due to a reduction of Ps. 8.8 million from our share in IRSA, slightly offset by a increase of Ps. 0.7 million from our Real estate business.
Net financial results
We had a higher net financial loss of Ps. 211.4 million, from a loss of Ps. 369.0 million in fiscal year 2011 to a loss of Ps. 580.4 million in fiscal year 2012. This was primarily due to:

| · | a higher loss of Ps. 79.9 million in net financial interest recorded in fiscal year 2012;
| · | a higher gain of Ps. 27.5 million generated by the results from financial and other transactions in fiscal year 2012;
| · | a higher loss of Ps. 158.9 million generated by net exchange differences in fiscal year 2012.

Our net financial loss in fiscal year 2012 is mainly due to (i) an Ps. 396.2 million loss from the negative impact of interest accrued on debt financing, mainly due to increased indebtedness and higher interest rates; (ii) an Ps. 225.0 million loss generated by net exchange differences mainly as a result of a higher liability position in US dollars; and (iii) an Ps. 3.6 million loss derived from holding results from the placement of funds and other financial transactions.
It should be pointed out that the average exchange rate increased 5.1%, from Ps./US$ 4.09 at the end of fiscal year 2011 to Ps./US$ 4.30 at the end of fiscal 2012.
Gain (loss) on equity investees
Gain on our equity investees decreased 18.8%, from Ps. 129.4 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps.105.1 million in fiscal year 2012. This was primarily due to:

| · | a reduction of Ps.21.7 million in fiscal year 2012 in income from related companies in our Real estate business;
| · | we did not record income from our investment in BrasilAgro due to the consolidation of this company effective July 1, 2011. During fiscal year 2011 we had recorded a gain of Ps.9.5 million for the full period;
| · | a lower loss of Ps. 1.9 million from the result of our investment in Cactus Argentina S.A. as a result of the consolidation of such company effective January 1, 2011. During fiscal year 2011 we had recorded a loss of Ps.12.4 million for the six-month period ended December 31, 2010;
| · | a lower loss of Ps. 4.1 million in fiscal year 2012 as a result of the amortization of higher values generated by the combination of businesses, from a loss of Ps.10.6 million in fiscal year 2011 to a loss of Ps.6.5 million for fiscal year 2012; and
| · | an increase of Ps.1.0 million in fiscal year 2012 as a result of our equity interest in Agro Uranga S.A. The result from our investment in such company was an Ps.4.7 million gain in fiscal year 2011, compared to an Ps. 5.7 million gain in fiscal year 2012.

Other income and expenses, net
Other income and expenses, net, represented a higher net expense of 81.1%, from a net expense of Ps.22.8 million in fiscal year 2011 to a net expense of Ps.41.3 million in fiscal year 2012. These results were mainly due to the negative impact from the lower income derived from the sale of our equity interest in APSA Media, higher expenditures in donations and higher capital issuance expenses.
Management fee
Under the consulting agreement entered into with Consultores Asset Management S.A., we pay a fee equal to 10% of our net income for agricultural advisory services and other management services. The fees amounted to Ps. 23.6 million in fiscal year 2011 and Ps. 8.7 million in fiscal year 2012.
Income tax
Our income tax expense was Ps.110.1 million in fiscal year 2011 and Ps.13.4 million in fiscal year 2012. We recognize our income tax expense on the basis of the deferred tax liability method, thus recognizing temporary differences between accounting and tax assets and liabilities measurements. The main temporary differences for the Agriculture and cattle raising business derive from valuation of cattle stock and fixed assets sale and replacement, while those corresponding to the Real estate business derive from the sale and replacement of fixed assets.
- 117 -

For purposes of determining the deferred assets and liabilities, the tax rate expected to be in force at the time of their reversion or use, according to the legal provisions enacted as of the date of issuance of these financial statements (35%), has been applied to the identified temporary differences and tax losses.
Minority interest
Our minority interest decreased 46.1% from an Ps.175.0 million loss for fiscal year 2011 to an Ps.94.4 million loss in fiscal year 2012, mainly due to the Ps.44.1 million reduction in companies from the Real estate business.
Net income
Due to the above mentioned factors, our net income decreased 64.7%, from Ps.221.9 million for fiscal year 2011 to Ps.78.3 million in fiscal year 2012.
Fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 compared to fiscal year ended June 30, 2010
Production income
Production income was Ps.406.5 million for fiscal year 2011, 86.7% higher than the amount recorded for the previous fiscal year. This was primarily attributable to a Ps.157.8 million increase in our Crops segment, a Ps.25.7 million increase in our Beef cattle segment and a Ps.5.2 million increase in our Milk segment.
Crops – Domestic market
Production income from our Crops segment increased 80.3%, from Ps.143.8 million for fiscal year 2010 to Ps.259.2 million for fiscal year 2011, primarily as a result of:

| • | a 41.2% increase in total production volumes, from 289,141 tons in fiscal year 2010 to 408,404 tons in fiscal year 2011, mainly due to an increase in volumes of sunflower (83.5%), wheat (47.0%), corn (32.0%), and soybean (11.8%) harvested, partially offset by a 23.4% volume decrease of sorghum harvested from year to year; and
| • | a 27.6% increase in average prices of grain production.

The 41.2% increase in the production volume from our Crops segment was mainly due to a 27.8% increase in our average yield, from 3.52 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2010 to 4.50 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2011, mainly due to the mix of grain harvested and favorable weather conditions. The surface area in operation for fiscal year 2010 was 82,088 hectares (including 10,816 hectares under concession) whereas for fiscal year 2011 it was 90,750 (including 10,401 hectares under concession).
As of June 30, 2011, the harvested area was 81.4% of our total sown area, compared to 86.3% as of June 30, 2010.
The following table shows the board prices(1) as of June 30, 2010 and 2011:

Crops – International market
Production income from our Crops segment increased 156.4%, from Ps.27.1 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.69.4 million in fiscal year 2011, mainly as a result of:

| • | a 74.8% increase in global production volume from 33,475 tons in fiscal year 2010 to 58,506 tons in fiscal year 2011, mainly due to a 72.4% increase in soybean volumes harvested, a 70.0% increase in corn volumes harvested and a 15.0% increase in sunflower volumes harvested, partially offset by a slight reduction of 1.4% in wheat volumes harvested from year to year; and
| • | a 46.7% increase in the average price of grain production.

The 74.8% increase in production volume of our Crops segment resulted mainly from a larger surface area under operation, from 18,872 hectares in fiscal year 2010 to 30,978 hectares in fiscal year 2011, and a 6.5% increase in our average yield from 1.77 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2010 to 1.89 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2011.
As of June 30, 2011, the harvested area was 79.6% of the total sown area, compared to 95.6% as of June 30, 2010.

Beef cattle
Production income from the Beef cattle segment increased 123.6%, from Ps.20.8 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.46.6 million in fiscal year 2011, primarily as a result of:

| • | a 8.1% increase in the average price of kilogram per cattle produced, from Ps.6.6 millon in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.7.1 million in fiscal year 2011,
| • | a 106.8% increase in beef production volume, from 3,153 tons during fiscal year 2010 to 6,519 tons in fiscal year 2011. The beef production volume in farms and feedlot increased 117.0% and 44.4% in fiscal year 2011 compared to fiscal year 2010, respectively; and
| • | a 16.8% increase in births during fiscal year 2011 compared to fiscal year 2010.

The number of hectares dedicated to beef cattle production decreased from 105,857 hectares in fiscal year 2010 to 102,279 hectares in fiscal year 2011. This was mainly due to a smaller number of own hectares devoted to cattle production.
Milk
Production income from the Milk segment increased 20.1%, from Ps.26.0 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.31.3 million in fiscal year 2011. This increase was mainly due to:

| • | a 28.3% increase in average prices of milk, from Ps.1.13 per liter in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.1.45 per liter in fiscal year 2011; and
| • | a 9.6% reduction in milk production volumes, from 21.7 million liters in fiscal year 2010 to 19.6 million liters in fiscal year 2011. This decrease in production volume was mainly due to a reduction in the average number of milking cows (from 3,297 in fiscal 2010 to 2,816 in fiscal 2011 as a result of the sale of “La Juanita” dairy farm), partially offset by a 5.8% increase in the efficiency level of average daily milk production per cow, from 18.0 liters in fiscal year 2010 to 19.1 liters in fiscal year 2011.

Cost of production
Cost of production increased 38.7%, from Ps.201.9 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.280.1 million in fiscal year 2011. This increase was mainly due to a Ps.71.4 million increase in our Crops segment, a Ps. 3.1 million increase in our Beef cattle segment and a Ps.3.6 million increase in our Milk segment.
Crops – Domestic market
Cost of production from our Crops segment increased 43.9%, from Ps.132.3 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.190.4 million in fiscal year 2011, primarily as a consequence of:

| • | higher production volumes in fiscal year 2011 compared to fiscal year 2010;
| • | a larger number of hectares in operation in farms leased from third parties in fiscal year 2011 compared to fiscal year 2010; and
| • | a 48.9% increase in direct costs of production during fiscal year 2011 compared to fiscal year 2010, primarily as a result of higher prices of leases and supplies used (agrochemicals and seeds).

Total cost of production per ton increased 0.9%, from Ps.456 in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.460 in fiscal year 2011, primarily as a result of higher direct costs of production, partially offset by higher yields per hectare during fiscal year 2011 compared to fiscal year 2010.
Crops – International market
Cost of production from our Crops segment increased 48.4% from Ps.27.4 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.40.7 million in fiscal year 2011, mainly due to:

• | higher production volumes in fiscal year 2011 compared to fiscal year 2010;
• | a larger number of hectares in operation in fiscal year 2011 compared to fiscal year 2010; and
• | a 46.1% increase in direct costs of production during fiscal year 2011 compared to fiscal year 2010, primarily as a result of higher prices of supplies used (agrochemicals and seeds).

The total cost of production per ton decreased 15.1% from Ps.819 in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.696 in fiscal year 2011, mainly due to higher yields, that showed a higher production volume, compared to the previous fiscal year.
Beef Cattle
Production cost of the Beef Cattle segment increased 14.4% from Ps.21.8 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.25.0 million in fiscal year 2011. The increase in production costs of the Beef Cattle segment during fiscal year 2011 was mainly due to:

• | higher production volumes in fiscal year 2011 compared to fiscal year 2010; and
• | higher feed costs due to the increase of animals fattened in feedlots and higher supply prices.

Primarily due to higher production volumes, the direct cost per kilogram produced decreased by 35.1% from Ps.2.95 in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.1.91 in fiscal year 2011.
- 119 -

Milk
Cost of production of the Milk segment increased 17.6%, from Ps.20.4 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.24.0 million in fiscal year 2011. This increase was mainly due to the impact of higher direct costs. As a result of the above, cost of production per liter of milk increased from Ps.0.94 in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.1.22 in fiscal year 2011.
Sales
Total sales increased 28.2%, from Ps.1,664.6 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.2,133.8 million in fiscal year 2011. This was primarily due to a 72.5% increase in the Agriculture and cattle raising business, from Ps.327.4 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.564.9 million in fiscal year 2011, the Ps.127.1 effect recorded in fiscal year 2011 in our Feedlot/Slaughtering business following the consolidation with Cactus Argentina S.A. as of December 2010 and a 7.8% increase in the Real estate business, from Ps.1,337.2 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.1,441.9 million in fiscal year 2011.

Feedlot/Slaughtering business
In December 2010, we increased our interest in Cactus Argentina S.A. from 48% to 80%. Therefore, our consolidated results for the period from July 1, 2010 to June 30, 2011 include the results of Cactus Argentina S.A. only for the period from January 1 to June 30, 2011. Cactus’ results are consolidated with those of Exportaciones Agroindustriales Argentinas S.A. As a result, our segment information includes a new segment known as Feedlot/Slaughtering. Our consolidated results as of June 30, 2010 do not include Cactus’ consolidated information, which affects the comparability of results.
Sales from the Feedlot/Slaughtering business were Ps.127.1 million.
Real estate business

It should be noted that our consolidated results for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 include the results of Tarshop S.A. only for the period from July 1, 2010 to August 31, 2010. Our consolidated results as of June 30, 2010 include consolidated information of Tarshop S.A., thus affecting the comparability of results.
Cost of sales
Total cost of sales increased 52.3% from Ps.792.2 million for fiscal year 2010 to Ps.1,206.2 million for fiscal year 2011. This was mainly due to a 59.9% increase in the Agriculture and cattle raising business, from Ps.289.7 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.463.2 million in fiscal year 2011, the Ps.123.3 million effect recorded in fiscal year 2011 in our Feedlot/Slaughtering Business following the consolidation with Cactus Argentina S.A. as from December 2010 and a 23.3% increase in the Real estate business from Ps.502.5 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.619.7 million in fiscal year 2011.

| • | a 25.6% increase in the average market price of grains in fiscal year 2011.

The average cost per ton sold increased 27.3%, from Ps.621 in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.791 in fiscal year 2011, mainly as a result of the higher average market prices of grains.
Crops – International market
Cost of sales from our Crops segment increased 133.8% from Ps.27.6 million in fiscal year 2010 to Ps.64.4 million in fiscal year 2011, mainly as a result of:

The main temporary differences for the Agriculture and cattle raising business derive from valuation of cattle stock and fixed assets sale and replacement, while those corresponding to the Real estate business derive from the sale and replacement of fixed assets.
For purposes of determining the deferred assets and liabilities, the tax rate expected to be in force at the time of their reversion or use, according to the legal provisions enacted as of the date of this annual report (35%), has been applied to the identified temporary differences and tax losses.

Net cash provided by financing activities increased from Ps.179.4 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 to Ps. 768.2 million in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, mainly due to an increase in the inflow of cash arising from the issuance of non-convertible notes for Ps. 836.2 million, an increase in the inflow of cash arising from the sale of non-convertible notes for Ps. 302.3 million and a decrease of payment of seller financing for Ps. 62.1 million; the increase was partially offset by a Ps. 269.1 million decrease in financial loans and a increase in the cash outflows for repurchasing and payment of non-convertible notes for Ps. 186.6 million.
- 129 -

Our financing activities resulted in net cash inflows of Ps. 768.2 million mainly due to the proceeds of financial loans for Ps. 357.6 million, cash inflows associated with the issuance of non-convertible notes for Ps. 965.5 million and the proceeds from sale of non-convertible notes for Ps. 302.3 million, partially offset by the repayment of financial loans for Ps. 250.7 million, the payment of dividends for Ps. 190.4 million, cash outflows for repurchasing non-convertible notes for Ps. 163.3 million and payment of financial interest for Ps. 186.8 million.
We believe our working capital (calculated by subtracting current liabilities from current assets) and our cash from operating activities are adequate for our present and future requirements. In the event that cash generated from our operations is at any time insufficient to finance our working capital, we would seek to finance such working capital needs through new debt, equity financing or selective asset sales.

Debt structuring for the acquisition of Edificio República
On April 28, 2008 we executed a loan agreement secured by a mortgage with Banco Macro S.A. pursuant to which Banco Macro S.A. lent us US$ 33.6 million which it applied to the repayment of the debt balance owed to Fideicomiso República, which was incurred with respect to the acquisition of Edificio República.

C. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENTS, PATENTS AND LICENSES
Investments in technology amounted to Ps.80.2 million, Ps.134.5 million and Ps.21.8 million for the fiscal years 2012, 2011 and 2010 respectively. Our total technology investments aim to increase the productivity of purchased land have amounted to Ps.413.4 million since fiscal year 1995.
We reach our objectives within this area through the implementation of domestic and international technological development projects focusing mainly on:

| • | Quality and productivity improvement.
| • | Increase in appreciation value of land through the development of marginal areas.
| • | Increase in the quality of food in order to achieve global food safety standards. We aim to implement and perform according to official and private quality protocols that allow us to comply with the requirements of our present and future clients. Regarding official regulations, in 2003 we implemented the Servicio Nacional de Sanidad y Calidad Agroalimentaria law on animal identification for livestock in six farms. Simultaneously, in 2004 we implemented EurepGap Protocols with the objective of complying with European Union food safety standards and as a mean for continuous improvement of the internal management and system production of our farms. Our challenge is to achieve global quality standards.
| • | Certification of suitable quality standards, since in recent years worldwide agriculture has evolved towards more efficient and sustainable schemes in terms of environmental and financial standpoints, where the innocuousness and quality of the production systems is becoming increasingly important. In this context, Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) have emerged, as a set of practices seeking to ensure the innocuousness of agricultural products, the protection of the environment, the workers’ safety and well-being, and agricultural health, with a view to improving conventional production methods. Certification of such standards allows to demonstrate the application of Good Agricultural Practices to production systems and ensures product traceability, allowing to impose stricter controls to verify the enforcement of the applicable laws.
| • | The implementation of a system of control and assessment of agricultural tasks for analyzing and improving efficiency in the use of agricultural machinery hired. For each of the tasks, a minimum standard to be fulfilled by contractors was set, which has led to do an improvement in the plant stand upon sowing, a better use of supplies and lower harvesting losses.

We do not have any patents or licenses that are material for conducting our business.
D. TREND INFORMATION
Agricultural Business
Our future operating results may be affected by variations in some factors, such as adverse changes in the price of commodities, the yield of crops, or changes in regulations. Though a significant drought has affected the main productive regions of the country, with a negative impact on the agriculture and livestock sectors in the 2008/2009 farm season, historical tendencies may not be representative of our future results. Our past results must not be considered indicative of our future performance. To mitigate certain risks associated with changes in weather and prices, we seek to apply hedging mechanisms through futures and option agreements in the grain market and to diversify our geographic areas of production.
Production and sales
At present we are engaged in various operations and activities including crops, cattle breeding and fattening, milk production, and certain forestry activities. We complement our operations with the purchase and sale of land to benefit from real estate valuations.
We conduct our business on owned and leased land. As of June 30, 2012, we owned 33 farms with approximately 645,815 hectares in Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia and Paraguay. Approximately 185,925 hectares of the land we own are used for crop production, approximately 83,360 hectares are for beef cattle production, 85,000 hectares are for sheep production, 3,022 hectares are for milk production and approximately 11,748 hectares are leased from third parties for crop and cattle beef production. The remaining 350,362 hectares of land reserve are primarily natural woodlands. In addition, we have the rights to hold approximately 132,000 hectares of land under concession for a 35-year period that can be extended for another 29 years. Out of this total, we have developed 22,383 hectares for crop production. Also, during fiscal year ended on June 30, 2012, we leased 42,515 hectares from third parties for crop production and 12,635 hectares for beef cattle production.

Crops – Local
Production income from our Crops segment in the local market decreased 9.1%, from Ps. 259.2 million for fiscal year 2011 to Ps.235.6 million in fiscal year 2012, primarily as a result of:

| · | a 5.6% decrease in total production volumes, from 408,404 tons in fiscal year 2011 to 385,739 tons in fiscal year 2012, mainly due to a decrease in volumes of soybean (30.4%) and sorghum (35.61%) harvested, partially offset by an increase in volumes of sunflower (4.42%) and corn (1.03%) harvested from year to year; and
| · | a 3.8% decrease in average prices of grain production.

The 5.6% decrease in the production volume from our Crops segment in the local market was mainly due to a 6.7% decrease in our average yield, from 4.53 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2011 to 4.23 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2012, mainly due to the mix of grain harvested and unfavorable weather conditions. In addition, during fiscal year 2012 the surface area in operation increased from 90,150 hectares (including 10,401 hectares under concession) as of June 30, 2011 to 91,269 hectares (including 8,778 hectares under concession) as of June 30, 2012.
As of June 30, 2012, the harvested area was 83.3% of our total sown area, compared to 81.4% as of June 30, 2011.
The following table shows the board prices(1) as of June 30, 2012 and 2011:

Crops – International
Production income from our Crops segment in the international market increased 420.7%, from Ps. 69.4 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps.361.5 million in fiscal year 2012, mainly as a result of:

| · | a 1,261.4% increase in total production volume from 58,506 tons in fiscal year 2011 to 796,510 tons in fiscal year 2012, mainly due to an increase in volumes of soybean (237.6%), corn (440.8%), sorghum (56.4%), sunflower (50.3%) and sugarcane (100%) harvested (in the last case, mainly because of the effect of BrasilAgro’s consolidation effective July 1, 2011);
| · | slightly offset by a 32.3% year-on-year decrease in volumes of wheat harvested; and
| · | a 61.7% decrease in the average price of grain production.

- 134 -

The 1,261.4% increase in production volume of our Crops segment in the international market resulted mainly from a larger surface area under operation, from 30,978 hectares in fiscal year 2011 to 109,602 hectares in fiscal year 2012 (63,410 hectares from BrasilAgro), and a 284.8% increase in our average yield from 1.89 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2011 to 7.27 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2012.
As of June 30, 2012, the harvested area was 82.0% of the total sown area, compared to 79.6% as of June 30, 2011.
Beef cattle
Production income from the Beef cattle segment increased 55.3%, from Ps. 46.6 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps.72.3 million in fiscal year 2012, primarily as a result of:

| · | a 12.5% increase in the average price of kilogram of cattle produced, from Ps.7.1 in fiscal year 2011 to Ps.8.0 in fiscal year 2012;
| · | a 38.1% increase in beef production volume, from 6,519 tons during fiscal year 2011 to 9,000 tons in fiscal year 2012, mainly due to a higher beef production volume in farms (24.3%) and feedlot (163.3%) in fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011; and
| · | a 44.5% increase in births during fiscal year 2012 compared to fiscal year 2011.

The number of hectares dedicated to beef cattle production decreased from 102,279 hectares in fiscal year 2011 to 95,995 hectares in fiscal year 2012. This was mainly due to a smaller number of own hectares devoted to cattle production.
Milk
Production income from the Milk segment decreased 0.7%, from Ps.31.3 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps.31.1 million in fiscal year 2012. This decrease was mainly due to:

| · | a 15.5% reduction in milk production volumes, from 19.6 million liters in fiscal year 2011 to 16.6 million liters in this fiscal year. This decrease in production volume was mainly due to a lower average number of milking cows per day (from 2,816 in fiscal 2011 to 2,112 in fiscal 2012) as a result of the sale of “La Juanita” dairy farm by mid-fiscal year 2011, partially offset by a 12.6% increase in the efficiency level of average daily milk production per cow, from 19.1 liters in fiscal year 2011 to 21.5 liters in fiscal year 2012; and
| · | partially offset by a 14.6% increase in average prices of milk, from Ps.1.45 per liter in fiscal year 2011 to Ps.1.66 per liter in fiscal year 2012.

Sales of farms
Sales from our Sales of farms segment increased 10.9% from Ps. 84.5 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps. 93.7 million in fiscal year 2012.

| · | During fiscal year 2012, BrasilAgro sold the Sao Pedro farm, a rural property located in the Municipality of Chapadão do Céu – GO, Republic of Brazil with a total surface area of 2,447 hectares. The transaction price was Rs. 23.3 million (equivalent to Ps. 59.8 million and 580,000 bags of soybean seeds). The purchaser made an advance payment of Rs. 2,250 (equivalent to Ps. 5,030 and 50,000 tons of soybean) and on March 31, 2012 it paid the first installment of Rs. 7,519 (equivalent to Ps. 16,836 and 160,000 tons of soybean). The remaining balance is payable in four annual installments due on March 30 of each year, for an amount of 92,500 bags of soybean each. Moreover, we agreed upon the sale of 1,194 additional hectares in La Fon Fon farm, located in the Province of Obispo Santiesteban, Republic of Bolivia, for Ps. 18.3 million (US$ 4.8 million), US$ 1.1 million of which have been collected.

US$ 2.0 million has been already collected, while the balance is payable in three semi-annual consecutive installments maturing from December 2012 to December 2013.

Cost of sales from our Sales of farms segment increased significantly, from Ps.29.9 million in fiscal year 2011 to Ps.48.2 million in fiscal year 2012.

| · | During fiscal year 2012, the cost of sale of 2,447 hectares of “Sao Pedro” farm was Ps. 32.1 million, the cost of sale of 1,194 hectares of “La Fon Fon” farm was Ps. 11.7 million and the cost of sale of 115 hectares of “Puerta de Luján” farm was Ps. 4.3 million.

Product Prospects
The sources of the following information are the Ministerio de Agricultura, Pesca y Alimentación de la República Argentina, the United States Department of Agriculture (“USDA”).
- 135 -

Wheat
USDA projections for the 2011/2012 campaign at global level estimate a production of 683.3 million tons of wheat, one million tons lower than the all-time high in the 2009/2010 marketing year. While world harvested area is left almost unchanged, the already record-high world average wheat yield inched up 0.01 tons per hectare due to increased yields in Kazakhstan and EU-27. The wheat production forecast for Argentina is 13.0 million tons while wheat area is projected to be 4.6 million hectares by the end of the campaign.
For the 2012/13 the USDA estimated a world production of 665.33 million tons and final stocks of 188.13 million tons, compared to 694.69 and 206.27 million tons in the previous cycle. The Argentinian production for 2012/13 is forecasted at 14 million tons, with a 3.9 million hectares harvested.
Corn
USDA projections for the 2012-13 season estimate that world production would reach 905 million tons, with an average yield of 5.16 tons per hectare. In the case of Argentina, the planted area is expected to remain steady at 3.4 million hectares, although production will increase to 25 million tons.
Soybean
As concerns projections for the 2012-13 season, the USDA estimated that the world production would be in the whereabouts of 267.16 million tons (13% higher than in the previous season).
The USDA estimates that Argentina’s soybean production will increase by 14 million tons, reaching 55 million tons. This increase is expected to result from both an expansion in the land allocated to soybean and a higher average yield (that would reach 2.79 million tons per hectare).
Sunflower
Globally, sunflower production preliminary estimates for the 2011/2012 campaign are projected by USDA at approximately 39,1 million tons compared to the estimate of 33.3 million tons in the previous year.
According to the source, the Argentine production of sunflower is forecast to be 3.3 million tons during 2011/12 campaign, 9.0% lower than the 2010/11 campaign.
Beef Cattle
For Argentina, the Food and Agriculture Organization for the United Nations (“FAO”) estimates that despite the closing down of approximately one quarter of the slaughtering houses during the past 3 years, beef production reached 4.72 million tons in 2011. Projections for 2012 point to approximately 4.88 million tons.
Milk
The FAO’s latest report shows that the world production of milk will increase from the current level of 730.1 million tons in 2011 to 749.5 million tons in 2012. These figures are way above the average value of 702 million tons recorded during the 2008-2010 period.
In the case of Argentina, the 12 million ton production recorded in 2011 is expected to increase to 12.5 million in 2012, while exports of dairy products will rise from 2.2 million tons in 2011 to 2.4 million tons in 2012.
Real Estate Business
The Shopping Centers sector exhibited major sales growth in the first four months of 2012. Shopping Centers’ turnover benefited greatly from the expansion that is being perceived in consumption. Based on the information released by INDEC, sales recorded a cumulative increase of 27% for the 12 months to April 2012 compared to the same period of 2011, boosted by the good mood amongst consumers and the tangible improvements in household nominal income.
Most of the retail offering sectors exhibited outstanding dynamism in that period. The principal increases were in “Food Courts and Food”, “Apparel” and in “Entertainment and Leisure”, with increases in excess of 30%.
Economic indicators pointed to favorable performance in fiscal year 2011, which ensured good sales figures in Shopping Centers. According to official figures, the GDP’s growth was 8.9% in 2011 and it has risen 3% for the first 5 months of 2012 (according to EMAE). Private consumption recorded a cumulative growth of 8.96% from June 2011 to March 2012, whereas public consumption increased 10.23%.
Although forecasts for 2012 are not as favorable as in the past, economic activity levels will continue to grow, which augurs well for the Company’s business in so far as consumption and inflation accompanied by salary raises are the main propellers of sales in the Company’s Shopping Centers.
As concerns the office market, Cushman & Wakefield’s latest market report shows that by the end of June the general vacancy rate of class A buildings in Buenos Aires was 10.8% (two percentage point above last year’s figures) while rental prices per square meter per month reached US$ 28.
The report shows that since the current vacancy levels are low, prices would remain stable and could even rise a little as a result of the inflationary scenario, although this trend could be counterbalanced if the exchange rate varies significantly. On the other hand, absorption remains stable, and it is expected that more square meters will be delivered than in the previous year (a new inventory of 70 thousand square meters is estimated), which could result in a larger number of transactions.
The prices of class A assets remained stable during the last quarters. However, according to Cushman & Wakefield the gap between minimum and maximum values has broadened.
According to Cushman & Wakefield’s estimations, vacant space has increased due to the shift away from important submarkets, such as 9 de Julio, and the new inventory entering the market. In this way, rental prices would remain unchanged as compared to the last quarters.
The construction industry showed great dynamism during the second half of 2011, although the outlook turned less promising in the first half of 2012, mainly due to the more restrictive exchange rate controls implemented by the end of 2011. According to INDEC’s Summary Construction Activities Indicator (ISAC, as per the initials in Spanish), the construction industry grew by 8.7% in 2011, whereas it posted a cumulative increase of only 0.6% for the first half of 2012 as compared to the same period of 2011.
- 136 -

According to ISAC, the surface area covered by the permits granted for private construction works decreased 4.2% in June 2012 compared to the previous month. Moreover, as compared to the same month of the previous year, this figure decreased by 14.1%. However, in the aggregate, the cumulative value for the first half of 2012 records a fall of 0.1% as compared to the same period of 2011.
In connection with the Hotel sector, the Argentine Ministry of Tourism reported that 5,693,738 tourists visited Argentina in 2011, an increase of 6.9% as compared to 2010. During 2012, there has been an upsurge of domestic tourists, which had increased 7.7% as of June 2012 compared to the previous year.
According to official data, Argentina is the country with the largest influx of travelers from South America. The Brazilian market has contracted slightly if we compare the first half of 2011 vs. the first half of 2012, although Brazil is still leading the ranking of tourists arriving in Argentina. It is followed by the countries of the rest of America, the United States and Canada and to a lesser extent, Europe.

That amount should be limited to 5% when there is no distribution of dividends to shareholders, and will be increased proportionally to the distribution.

The compensation of our directors for each fiscal year is determined pursuant to Argentine law, and taking into consideration whether the directors performed technical or administrative activities and our fiscal year’s results. Once the amount is determined, they are considered at the shareholders’ meeting.

Agreement for the Exchange of Corporate Services between us, IRSA and Alto Palermo
Considering that each of us, Alto Palermo and IRSA have operating areas which are somewhat similar, the Board of Directors deemed it advisable to implement alternatives aimed at reducing certain fixed costs of its activities and to lessen their impact on operating results while seizing and optimizing the individual efficiencies of each of them in the different areas comprising the management of operations.
In this regard, on June 30, 2004, we, Alto Palermo and IRSA entered into an agreement for the exchange of corporate services, which was amended on August 23, 2007, August 14, 2008, November 27, 2009, July 11, 2011 and October 15, 2012.
The agreement for the exchange of corporate services among Alto Palermo, IRSA and us, currently provides for the exchange of services among the following areas: human resources, finance, institutional relationships, administration and control, insurance, messenger service, contracts, safety, technical, infrastructure and services, purchases, architectual and design and development and works department, audit and control, board of directors, general management department, public affairs, real estate, hotels and tourism and risks and processes.
The exchange of services consists in the provision of services for value in relation to any of the aforementioned areas by one or more of the parties to the agreement for the benefit of the other party or parties, which are invoiced and paid primarily by an offset against the services provided by any of the areas and, secondarily, in case of a difference between the value of the services rendered, in cash.
Under said agreement the companies have entrusted to an external consultant the review and evaluation, on a semiannual basis, of the criteria applied in the corporate service settlement process and of the distribution bases and supporting documentation used in such process, through the issuance of a semiannual report.
On March 12, 2010, an amendment to the agreement for the exchange of corporate services was entered into to simplify issues originating from the consolidation of financial statements as a result of the increase in our equity interest in IRSA. It was deemed convenient and advisable for this simplification to transfer the employment agreements of Alto Palermo’s and IRSA’s corporate employees to us. Effective January 1, 2010, the labor costs of those employees will be transferred to our payroll, and we will render services to IRSA and Alto Palermo, which services will continue to be distributed in accordance with the terms of the agreement for the exchange of corporate services, as amended.
In the future and in order to continue with the policy of generating the most efficient distribution of corporate resources among the different areas, this agreement may be extended to other areas shared by us with Alto Palermo and IRSA.
In spite of the above, we, IRSA and Alto Palermo continue to be independent as regards the execution of each of our business and strategic decisions. Costs and benefits are allocated on the basis of operating efficiency and fairness without pursuing economic benefits for the companies. The implementation of this project does not impair the identification of the economic transactions or services involved, nor does it affect the efficiency of the internal control systems or the internal and external auditors’ tasks of each of the companies or the possibility of presenting the transactions related to the agreement in the manner provided in FACPCE Technical Resolution No. 12. Mr. Alejandro Gustavo Elsztain is acting as General Coordinator while Daniel E. Mellicovsky has been charged with the operation and implementation of the agreement on behalf of the company.

Exportaciones Agroindustriales Argentinas
On January 11, 2007 our affiliate Cactus and we (solely nominee Argentine legal purposes) acquired 100% of the capital stock of EAASA. On September 13, 2007, EAASA received an information request from theArgentine Central Bank relating to its obligation to repatriate foreign currency proceeds for an aggregate amount of US$0.9 million from certain exports of agricultural products prior to our acquisition. Information requests often are a first step by the Argentine Central Bank in its initiation of administrative proceedings relating to possible breaches of foreign exchange regulations.
On October 8, 2007, EAASA requested an extension of the time to answer the Argentine Central Bank’s information request in order to analyze the relevant accounts and operations. The Central Bank granted EAASA an extension of 30 business days from October 30, 2007 to answer the information request. EAASA answered the Argentine Central Bank’s information request on time. Breach of exporters’ obligations to repatriate export proceeds is subject to fines of up to ten times the amount involved and other penalties imposed pursuant to Argentine Criminal laws. As of the date of this annual report we haven’t had any notifications on this proceeding. We cannot assure you that the Argentine Central Bank will not initiate an administrative proceeding against EAASA, and that as a result of any such proceeding Argentine Central Bank will not impose fines and penalties that adversely affect the financial condition and results of operations of EAASA.
IRSA’s and Alto Palermo’s legal or arbitration proceedings
Set forth below is a description of certain material legal proceedings to which IRSA is a party. IRSA is not engaged in any other material litigation or arbitration and no other material litigation or claim is known to IRSA to be pending or threatened against it or its subsidiaries. Nevertheless, IRSA may be involved in other litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business.
Puerto Retiro
On November 18, 1997, in connection with IRSA’s acquisition of IRSA’s subsidiary Inversora Bolívar S.A. (“Inversora Bolívar”), IRSA indirectly acquired 35.2% of the capital stock of Puerto Retiro. Inversora Bolívar had purchased such shares of Puerto Retiro from Redona Investments Ltd. N.V. in 1996. In 1999, IRSA, through Inversora Bolívar, increased IRSA’s interest in Puerto Retiro to 50.0% of its capital stock. On April 18, 2000, Puerto Retiro received notice of a complaint filed by the Argentine Government, through the Ministry of Defense, seeking to extend the bankruptcy of Inversora Dársena Norte S.A. (“Indarsa”). Upon filing of the complaint, the bankruptcy court issued an order restraining the ability of Puerto Retiro to dispose of, in any manner, the real property it had purchased in 1993 from Tandanor S.A. (“Tandanor”). Puerto Retiro appealed the restraining order which was confirmed by the Court on December 14, 2000.
In 1991, Indarsa had purchased 90% of Tandanor, a former government-owned company, which owned a piece of land near Puerto Madero of approximately 8 hectares, divided into two parcels: Planta 1 and 2. After the purchase of Tandanor by Indarsa, in June 1993, Tandanor sold “Planta 1” to Puerto Retiro, for a sum of US$18 million pursuant to a valuation performed by J.L. Ramos, a well-known real estate brokerage firm in Argentina. Indarsa failed to pay to the Argentine government the price for its purchase of the stock of Tandanor, and as a result the Ministry of Defense requested the bankruptcy of Indarsa. Since the only asset of Indarsa was its holding in Tandanor, the Argentine government is seeking to extend Indarsa’s bankruptcy to other companies or individuals which, according to its view, acted as a single economic group. In particular, the Argentine government has requested the extension of Indarsa’s bankruptcy to Puerto Retiro which acquired Planta 1 from Tandanor.
The deadline for producing evidence in relation to these legal proceedings has expired. The parties have submitted their closing arguments and are awaiting a final judgment. However, the judge has delayed his decision until a final judgment in the criminal proceedings against the former Defense Minister and former directors of Indarsa has been delivered. It should be noted, regarding the abovementioned criminal procedure, that on February 23, 2011 it was resolved to declare its expiration, and to dismiss certain defendants. However, this resolution was appealed and it is not final. We cannot give you any assurance that we will prevail in this proceeding, and if the plaintiff’s claim is upheld by the courts, all of the assets of Puerto Retiro would likely be used to pay Indarsa’s debts and our investment in Puerto Retiro, valued at Ps. 54.2 million, as of June 30, 2012, would be lost. As of June 30, 2012, we had not established any reserve with respect of this contingency.

Llao Llao Holding
Llao Llao Holding S.A. purchased Hotel Llao Llao in November 1997, from the Argentine National Parks Administration. Llao Llao Holding S.A., the predecessor of Llao Llao Resorts S.A., was sued in 1997 by the National Parks Administration to collect the unpaid balance of the purchase price in Argentine sovereign debt securities amounting to US$2.9 million. The trial court ruled in favor of the plaintiff. The ruling was appealed, and the court of appeals confirmed the judgment ordering the payment of US$2.9 million in Argentine sovereign debt securities available at the date of the ruling, plus compensatory and punitive interest and attorneys’ fees. On March, 2004, Llao Llao Resorts S.A. paid an amount of Ps.9.2 million.
On June 30, 2004, the plaintiff filed a brief rejecting Llao Llao Resorts S. A. payment on the grounds that it was a partial payment and requesting the court to determine the term for the deposit of funds amounting to final payment of the total debt. The trial court pesified the outstanding amount of plaintiff’s ruling against Llao Llao Resorts S.A., as well as the unpaid fee of the plaintiff’s attorneys. The plaintiff appealed this decision. The court of appeals ruled in favor of the plaintiff maintaining the unpaid amounts were payable in U.S. Dollars. Llao Llao Resorts S.A. filed an appeal, which was rejected. Llao Llao Resorts S.A. subsequently filed with the National Supreme Court an additional appeal in response to the refusal to allow the appeal.
The plaintiff requested the court of original jurisdiction to initiate an incidental proceeding for the execution of the judgment. Llao Llao Resorts S.A. contested this settlement and requested to the plaintiff to provide additional information in order to evaluate the amount of the settlement. Also Llao Llao Resorts S.A. requested that the execution be suspended until there is a final judgement in the appeal filed with the Supreme Court.
Llao Llao Resorts S.A.’s request was denied and on July 14, 2008, the court of appeals announced by means of a Executive Branch Decree dated June 18, 2008, that it had confirmed the settlement approved by the court of original jurisdiction. On March 17, 2009, the National Supreme Court admitted the appeal against the Executive Branch Decree and decided to suspend the enforcement of the judgment. On March 9, 2010, by means of an order dated February 28, 2010, the National Supreme Court announced the rejection of the extraordinary appeal.
In accordance with a final liquidation agreed by the parties, Llao Llao Resorts S.A. paid to the Argentine National Parks Administration an amount of Ps.10.2 million.
On September 22, 2010, the judge calculated that the fees payable to the auctioneer who took part on the proceedings amount to Ps.1.8 million. Llao Llao Resorts S.A. filed for an appeal against the award for considering the amount excessively high. In turn the auctioneer filed for an appeal against the award for considering the amount excessively low. After various judicial instances, the courts render favorable decision to Llao Llao Resorts S.A. and considered Llao Llao Resorts S.A. debt was settled as it related to the liquidation approved in the record of proceedings. Furthermore, the appeal remedy regarding fees awarded to the auctioneer reduced them from Ps.1.8 million to Ps.1.1 million, plus VAT. As of the date of this annual report such fees have been made available for collection. Additionally, as of the date of this annual report Llao Llao Resorts S.A. has paid the fees of the attorneys of the Argentine National Parks Administration which amounts to Ps.1.4 million.

In June 2001, Shopping Neuquén requested that the City Hall of Neuquén allow it to transfer certain parcels of land to third parties so that each participant in the commercial development to be constructed would be able to build on its own land. The City Hall Executive Branch previously rejected this request under Executive Branch Decree No. 1437/2002 which also established the expiration of the rights arising from Ordinance 5178, including the loss of any improvement and expenses incurred. As a result, Shopping Neuquén had no right to claim indemnity charges and annulled its buy-sell land contracts.
Shopping Neuquén submitted a written appeal to this decision on January 21, 2003. It also sought permission to submit a revised schedule of time terms, taking account of the current situation and including reasonable short and medium term projections. The City Hall Executive Branch rejected this request in Executive Branch Decree 585/2003. Consequently, on June 25, 2003, Shopping Neuquén filed an “Administrative Procedural Action” with the High Court of Neuquén requesting, among other things, the annulment of Executive Branch Decrees 1,437/2002 and 585/2003 issued by the City Hall Executive Branch. On December 21, 2004, the High Court of Neuquén communicated its decision that the administrative procedural action that Shopping Neuquén had filed against the City Hall of Neuquén had expired. Shopping Neuquén filed an extraordinary appeal for the case to be sent to the Argentine Supreme Court.
On December 13, 2006, Shopping Neuquén signed an agreement with both the City Hall and the Province of Neuquén stipulating a new timetable for construction of the commercial and housing enterprises (the “Agreement”). Also, Shopping Neuquén was permitted to transfer certain parcels to third parties so that each participant in the commercial development to be constructed would be able to build on its own land, with the exception of the land in which the shopping center will be constructed. The Legislative Council of the City Hall of Neuquén duly ratified the Agreement. The City Hall Executive Branch promulgated the ordinance issued on February 12, 2007.
The Agreement also provides that Shopping Neuquén will submit, within 120 days after the Agreement is signed, a new urban project draft with an adjustment of the environmental impact survey, together with a map of the property subdivision, which the City Hall of Neuquén will approve or disapprove within 30 days after its presentation. If the project is approved, Shopping Neuquén will submit the final maps of the works to the City Hall within 150 days of this decision.
The Agreement put an end to the lawsuit of Shopping Neuquén against the City Hall of Neuquén before the High Court of Neuquén, in which the only pending issue is the determination of fees of the attorneys of the City Hall that are in charge of Shopping Neuquén.
On November 8, 2010, Shopping Neuquén was served notice of a resolution issued by the High Court of Neuquén, by which certain pending fees to be borne by Shopping Neuquén were established. Such decision is not final. As of June 30, 2012, an agreement was reached with some of the attorneys of the City Hall for the payments of fees .
Other Litigation
As of July 5, 2006, the Administración Federal de Ingresos Públicos or AFIP filed a preliminary injunction with the Federal Court for Administrative Proceedings against Alto Palermo for an aggregate amount of Ps.37 million, plus an added amount, provisionally estimated, of Ps.0.9 million for legal fees and interest. The main dispute is about the income tax due for admission rights. In the first instance, AFIP pleaded for a general restraining order. On November 29, 2006, the Federal Court issued an order substituting such restraining order for an attachment on the parcel of land located in Caballito neighborhood, City of Buenos Aires, where Alto Palermo is planning to develop a shopping center.

Dividends and dividend policy
Pursuant to Argentine law, the distribution and payment of dividends to shareholders is valid only if they result from net and realized earnings of the company pursuant to annual audited financial statements approved by the shareholders. The approval, amount and payment of dividends are subject to the approval by our shareholders at our annual ordinary shareholders meeting. The approval of dividends requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote at the meeting.
In accordance with Argentine law and our by-laws, net and realized profits for each fiscal year are allocated as follows:

| • | 5% of such net profits is allocated to our legal reserve, until such reserve amounts to 20% of our capital stock;
| • | a certain amount determined at a shareholders’ meeting is allocated to compensation of our directors and the members of our supervisory committee; and
| • | additional amounts are allocated for the payment of dividends or to optional reserve funds, or to establish reserves for whatever other purpose our shareholders determine.

As a result, we cannot give you any assurance that we will pay any dividends at any time in the future.

B. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
This item is not applicable.
C. MARKETS
Argentine Securities Markets
Comisión Nacional de Valores
The Comisión Nacional de Valores is a separate governmental entity with jurisdiction covering the territory of Argentina. Its main purpose is to ensure transparency of Argentina’s securities markets, to watch over the market price formation process and to protect investors. The Comisión Nacional de Valores supervises corporations authorized to issue securities to the public, the secondary markets where these securities are traded, and all persons and corporations involved in any capacity in the public offering and trading of these securities. The Argentine markets are governed generally by Law No. 17,811, as amended, which created the Comisión Nacional de Valores and regulates stock exchanges, stockbrokers, market operations and the public offerings of securities. There is a relatively low level of regulation of the market for Argentine securities and of investors’ activities in such market, and enforcement of existing regulatory provisions has been extremely limited. Furthermore, there may be less publicly available information about Argentine companies than is regularly published by or about companies in the United States and certain other countries. However, the Argentine government and the Comisión Nacional de Valores, taking into consideration the deeper global awareness of the importance of having adequate corporate governance practices and a legal framework to enforce principles such as “full information”, and “transparency”, have issued Executive Branch Decree No. 677/2001. This Executive Branch Decree has the objective of determining the rights of the “financial consumer”, increasing market transparency and an adequate legal framework to increase the investor’s protection within the capital market. Most of its reforms are in line with world trends pertaining to corporate governance practices that have already been adopted by many emerging markets.
In order to offer securities to the public in Argentina, an issuer must meet certain requirements of the Comisión Nacional de Valores regarding assets, operating history, management and other matters, and only securities for which an application for a public offering has been approved by the Comisión Nacional de Valores may be listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange. This approval does not imply any kind of certification or assurance related to the merits or the quality of the securities, or the issuer’s solvency. Issuers of listed securities are required to file unaudited quarterly financial statements and audited annual financial statements, as well as various other periodic reports, with the Comisión Nacional de Valores and the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange.
Securities Exchanges in Argentina
There are 12 securities exchanges in Argentina. The principal exchange for the Argentine securities market is the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, which handles approximately 99% of all equity trading in the country.
Buenos Aires Stock Exchange
The Buenos Aires Stock Exchange is a complex, non-profit, and self-regulated organization. The various markets require different self-organizations of brokers within the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, which is one of its particular characteristics. The most important and traditional of such markets is Mercado de Valores S.A. (“MERVAL”).
The securities that may be listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange are: Stocks, Corporate Bonds, Convertible Corporate Bonds, Close-ended Investment Funds, Financial Trust, Indexes, Derivatives and Public Bonds. The Buenos Aires Stock Exchange is legally qualified for admission, suspension, and delisting of securities according to its own rules approved by the Comisión Nacional de Valores. Furthermore, the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange works very closely with the Comisión Nacional de Valores in surveillance activities. Also under a special agreement, registration and listing applications are directly filed with the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange for simultaneous processing.
MERVAL
The MERVAL is a corporation whose 134 shareholder members are the only individuals and entities authorized to trade, either as principal or as agent, in the securities listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange. Trading on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange is conducted by continuous open outcry, or the traditional auction system, from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. each business trading day of the year. Trading on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange is also conducted through a Sistema Integrado de Negociación Asistida por Computación (“SINAC”). SINAC is a computer trading system that permits trading in debt securities and equity securities. SINAC is accessed by brokers directly from workstations located at their offices. Currently, all transactions relating to listed notes and listed government securities can be effected through SINAC.

Over the Counter Market
The Electronic Open Market (Mercado Abierto Electrónico or “MAE”) is an exchange organized under the laws of Argentina, which operates as a self-regulatory organization under the supervision of the Comisión Nacional de Valores.
The MAE works as an electronic platform to process Over the Counter Transactions. It is an electronic exchange where both government securities and corporate bonds are traded through spot and forward contracts.
The MAE has 91 brokers/dealers members, which include national banks, provincial banks, municipal banks, private national banks, foreign banks, cooperative banks, financial institutions, foreign exchange entities and pure brokers/dealers (exclusively engaged in brokerage activities). Both Argentine or foreign capital banks and financial institutions may be the MAE’s brokers/dealers.
Securities to be traded must be registered with the pertinent supervising authorities and may be traded in the Mercado Abierto Electrónico, in other exchanges or in both of them concurrently.
Securities Central Depositary
Caja de Valores S.A. is a corporation organized under the laws of Argentina, totally private, which acts as central depositary of public bonds and private securities. It was established in 1974 by Act 20,643, and it is supervised by the Comisión Nacional de Valores.
Those authorized to make deposits of securities with the Caja de Valores are stockbrokers, banking financial institutions, and mutual funds.
The majority shareholders of the Caja de Valores S.A. are the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange and the MERVAL (49.98% each).
Information regarding the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange

|  | As of June 30, |
|  | 2011 |  |  | 2012 |
Market capitalization (Ps.billion) |  |  | 1,593.19 |  |  |  | 1,979.10 |

Although companies may list all of their capital stock on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, in many cases a controlling block is retained by the principal shareholders resulting in only a relatively small percentage of many companies’ stock being available for active trading by the public on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange.
As of June 30, 2012, approximately 104 companies had equity securities listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange. As of June 30, 2012, approximately 4.65% of the total market capitalization of the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange was represented by the securities of the ten largest national companies.
The Argentine securities markets are substantially more volatile than the securities markets in the United States and certain other developed countries. The MERVAL experienced a 0.59% increase in 2008, a 102.98 % increase in 2009, a 47.77 % increase in 2010, a 29.22% decrease in 2011 and a 8.62% decrease in the first six months of 2012. In order to control price volatility, the MERVAL operates a system pursuant to which the negotiation of a particular stock or debt security is suspended for a 15 minute period when the price of the security registers a variation on its price between 10% and 15% and between 15% and 20%. Any additional 5% variation on the price of the security after that results in additional 10 minute successive suspension periods.

B. MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION
Our Corporate Purpose
Our legal name is Cresud Sociedad Anónima Comercial, Inmobiliaria, Financiera y Agropecuaria. We were incorporated under the laws of Argentina on December 31, 1936 as a sociedad anónima (Stock Corporation) and were registered with Public Registry of Commerce on February 19, 1937 under number 26, on page 2, book 45 of National by-laws Volume. Pursuant to our by-laws, our term of duration expires on June 6, 2082.
Pursuant to article 4 of our by-laws our purpose is to perform the following activities:

| • | Commercial activities with respect to cattle and products pertaining to farming and animal husbandry;

| • | Real estate activities with respect to urban and rural properties;

| • | Financial activities, except for those regulated by Law No. 21,526 of financial entities;

| • | Farming and animal husbandry activities, for properties owned by us or by third parties; and

| • | Agency and advice activities for which there is not required a specific qualifying title.

Limited Liability
Shareholders’ liability for losses is limited to their equity interes in us. Notwithstanding the foregoing, under the Argentine Corporation Law No. 19,550, shareholders who voted in favor of a resolution that is subsequently declared void by a court as contrary to Argentine law or a company’s by-laws (or regulation, if any) my be held jointly and severally liable for damages to such company, other shareholders or third parties resulting from such resolution. In addition, a shareholder who votes on a business transaction in which the shareholder’s interest conflicts with that of the company may be liable for damages under the Argentine companies’ law, but only if the transaction would not have been validly approved without such shareholder’s vote.
Capitalization
We may increase our share capital upon authorization by our shareholders at an ordinary shareholders’ meeting. Capital increases must be registered with the public registry of commerce referred to as the Registro Publico de Comercio, and published in the Boletín Oficial. Capital reductions may be voluntary or mandatory and must be approved by the shareholders at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting (asamblea extraordinaria). Reductions in capital are mandatory when losses have depleted reserves and exceed 50% of capital. At June 30, 2012 our share capital consisted of 501,562,534 common shares.
Our bylaws provide that preferred stock may be issued when authorized by the shareholders at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting (asamblea extraordinaria) and in accordance with applicable regulations. Such preferred stock may have a fixed cumulative dividend, with or without additional participation in our profits, resolved by the shareholders’ meetings. We currently do not have outstanding preferred stock.
Preemptive Rights and Increases of Share Capital
Pursuant to our by-laws and Argentine Corporation Law No. 19,550, in the event of an increase in our share capital, each of our existing holders of our common shares has a preemptive right to subscribe for new common shares in proportion to such holder’s share ownership pursuant to our by-laws and the Argentine Corporation Law No. 19,550. For any shares of a class not preempted by any holder of that class, the remaining holders of the class will be entitled to accretion rights based on the number of shares they purchased when they exercised their own preemptive rights. Rights and accretion rights must be exercised simultaneously within 30 days following the time in which notices to the shareholders of a capital increase and of the rights to subscribe thereto are published for three days in the Boletín Oficial and a widely circulated newspaper in Argentina. Pursuant to the Argentine Companies Law, such 30-day period may be reduced to 10 days by a decision of our shareholders adopted at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting (asamblea extraordinaria).
Additionally, the Argentine Companies Law permits shareholders at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting (asamblea extraordinaria) to suspend or limit the preemptive rights relating to the issuance of new shares in specific and exceptional cases in which the interest of we require such action and, additionally, under the following specific conditions:

| • | the issuance is expressly included in the list of matters to be addressed at the shareholders’ meeting; and

| • | the shares to be issued are to be paid in-kind or in exchange for payment under pre-existing obligations.

Furthermore, Article 12 of the Negotiable Obligations Law permits shareholders at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting (asamblea extraordinaria) to suspend preemptive subscription rights for the subscription of convertible bonds under the above-mentioned conditions. Preemptive rights may also be eliminated, so long as a resolution providing so has been approved by at least 50% of the outstanding capital stock with a right to decide such matters and so long as the opposition to such resolution does not surpass 5% of the share capital.
Shareholders’ Meetings and Voting Rights
Our bylaws provide that shareholders’ meetings may be called by our board of directors or by our Supervisory Committee or at the request of the holders of shares representing no less than 5% of the common shares. Any meetings called at the request of shareholders must be held within 30 days after the request is made. Any shareholder may appoint any person as its duly authorized representative at a shareholders meeting, by granting a proxy. Co-owners of shares must have single representation.
- 154 -

In general, the following matters can be considered only at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting (asamblea extraordinaria):

| • | matters that may not be approved at an ordinary shareholders’ meeting;
| • | the amendment of our bylaws;
| • | reductions in our share capital;
| • | redemption, reimbursement and amortization of our shares;
| • | mergers, and other corporate changes, including dissolution and winding-up;
| • | limitations or suspensions to preemptive rights to the subscription of the new shares; and
| • | issuance of debentures, convertible negotiable obligations and bonds that not qualify as notes (obligaciones negociables).

In accordance with our by-laws, ordinary and special shareholders’ meetings (asamblea extraordinaria) are subject to a first and second quorum call, the second to occur upon the failure of the first. The first and second notice of ordinary shareholders’ meetings may be made simultaneously. In the event that both are made on the same day, the second must occur at least one hour after the first. If simultaneous notice was not given, the second notice must be given within 30 days after the failure to reach quorum at the first. Such notices must be given in compliance with applicable regulations.
A quorum for an ordinary shareholders’ meeting on the first call requires the presence of a number of shareholders holding a majority of the shares entitled to vote and, on the second call, the quorum consists of the number of shareholders present, whatever that number. Decisions at ordinary shareholders’ meetings must be approved by a majority of the votes validly exercised by the shareholders.
A quorum for an special shareholders’ meeting (asamblea extraordinaria) on the first call requires the presence of persons holding 60% of the shares entitled to vote and, on the second call, the quorum consists of the number of shareholders present, whatever that number. Decisions at special shareholders’ meeting (asamblea extraordinaria) generally must be approved by a majority of the votes validly exercised.
However, pursuant to the Argentine Companies Law, all shareholders’ meetings, whether convened on a first or second quorum call, require the affirmative vote of the majority of shares with right to vote in order to approve the following decisions:

| • | advanced winding-up of the company;
| • | transfer of the domicile of the company outside of Argentina;
| • | fundamental change to the purpose of the company;
| • | total or partial mandatory repayment by the shareholders of the paid-in capital; and
| • | a merger or a spin-off, when our company will not be the surviving company.

Holders of common shares are entitled to one vote per share. Owners of common shares represented by ADRs exercise their voting rights through the ADR Depositary, who acts upon instructions received from such shareholders and, in the absence of instructions, votes in the same manner as our majority of the shareholders present in the shareholders’ meeting.
The holders of preferred stock may not be entitled to voting rights. However, in the event that no dividends are paid to such holders for their preferred stock, the holders of preferred stock are entitled to voting rights. Holders of preferred stock are also entitled to vote on certain special matters, such as a transformation of the corporate type, early dissolution, change to a foreign domicile, fundamental change in the corporate purposes, total or partial replacement of capital losses, mergers in which our company is not the surviving entity, and spin-offs. The same exemption will apply in the event the preferred stock is traded on any stock exchange and such trading is suspended or canceled.
Dividends and Liquidation Rights
The Argentine Companies Law establishes that the distribution and payment of dividends to shareholders is valid only if they result from realized and net earnings of the company pursuant to an annual balance sheet approved by the shareholders. Our board of directors submits our financial statements for the previous financial year, together with the reports of our Supervisory Committee, to the Annual Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting. This meeting must be held by October 30 of each year to approve the financial statements and decide on the allocation of our net income for the year under review. The distribution, amount and payment of dividends, if any, must be approved by the affirmative vote of the majority of the present votes with right to vote at the meeting.
The shareholders’ meeting may authorize payment of dividends on a quarterly basis provided no applicable regulations are violated. In that case, all and each of the members of the board of directors and the supervisory committee will be jointly and severally unlimitedly liable for the refund of those dividends if, as of the end of the respective fiscal year, the realized and net earnings of the company are not sufficient to allow the payment of dividends.
When we declare and pay dividends on the common shares, the holders of our ADRs, each representing the right to receive ten ordinary shares, outstanding on the corresponding registration date, are entitled to receive the dividends due on the common shares underlying the ADRs, subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement dated March 18, 1997 executed by and between us, The Bank of New York, as depositary and the eventual holders of ADRs. The cash dividends are to be paid in Pesos and, except under certain circumstances, are to be converted by the Depositary into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the conversion date and are to be paid to the holders of the ADRs net of any applicable fee on the dividend distribution, costs and conversion expenses, taxes and public charges. Since January 2002 and due to the devaluation of the Peso, the exchange rate for the dividends will occur at a floating market rate.
Our dividend policy is proposed from time to time by our board of directors and is subject to shareholders’ approval at an ordinary shareholders’ meeting. Declarations of dividends are based upon our results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements and future prospects, as well as restrictions under debt obligations and other factors deemed relevant by our board of directors and our shareholders.
Dividends may be lawfully paid only out of our retained earnings determined by reference to the financial statements prepared in accordance with Argentine GAAP. In accordance with the Argentine Companies Law, net income is allocated in the following order: (i) 5% is retained in a legal reserve until the amount of such reserve equals 20% of the company’s outstanding capital; (ii) dividends on preferred stock or common shares or other amounts may be retained as a voluntary reserve, contingency reserve or new account, or (iii) for any other purpose as determined by the company’s shareholders at an ordinary shareholders’ meeting.
Our legal reserve is not available for distribution. Under the applicable regulations of the Comisión Nacional de Valores, dividends are distributed pro rata in accordance with the number of shares held by each holder within 30 days of being declared by the shareholders for cash dividends and within 90 days of approval in the case of dividends distributed as shares. The right to receive payment of dividends expires three years after the date on which they were made available to shareholders. The shareholders’ meeting may authorize payment of dividends on a quarterly basis provided no applicable regulations are violated. In such case, all and each of the members of the board of directors and the supervisory committee will be jointly and severally liable for the refund of those dividends if, at the end of the respective fiscal year, the realized and net earnings of the company are not sufficient to allow for the payment of dividends.
- 155 -

| • | In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of our company, our assets are
| • | to be applied to satisfy its liabilities; and
| • | to be proportionally distributed among holders of preferred stock in accordance with the terms of the preferred stock. If any surplus remains, our shareholders are entitled to receive and share proportionally in all net assets available for distribution to our shareholders, subject to the order of preference established by our bylaws.

Approval of Financial Statements
Our fiscal year ends on June 30 of each year, after which we prepare an annual report which is presented to our board of directors and Supervisory Committee. The board of directors submits our financial statements for the previous financial year, together with the reports of our Supervisory Committee, to the annual ordinary shareholders’ meeting, which must be held within 120 days of the close of our fiscal year, in order to approve our financial statements and determine our allocation of net income for such year. At least 20 days before the ordinary shareholders’ meeting, our annual report must be available for inspection at our principal office.
Right of Dissenting Shareholders to Exercise Their Appraisal Right
Whenever certain actions are approved at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting (asamblea extraordinaria) (such as the approval of a merger, a spin-off (except when the shares of the acquired company are publicly traded), a fundamental change of corporate purpose, a transformation from one type of corporation to another, a transfer of the domicile of our company outside of Argentina or, as a result of the action approved, the shares cease to be publicly traded) any shareholder dissenting from the adoption of any such resolution may withdraw from our company and receive the book value per share determined on the basis of our latest financial statements, whether completed or to be completed, provided that the shareholder exercises its appraisal rights within ten days following the shareholders’ meeting at which the resolution was adopted.
In addition, to have appraisal rights, a shareholder must have voted against such resolution or act within 15 days following the shareholders’ meeting if the shareholder was absent and can prove that he was a shareholder of record on the day of the shareholders meeting. Appraisal rights are extinguished with respect to a given resolution if such resolution is subsequently overturned at another shareholders’ meeting held within 75 days of the previous meeting at which the original resolution was adopted. Payment on the appraisal rights must be made within one year of the date of the shareholders’ meeting at which the resolution was adopted, except where the resolution involved a decision that our stock ceases to be publicly traded, in which case the payment period is reduced to 60 days from the date of the resolution.
Ownership Restrictions
The Comisión Nacional de Valores regulations require that transactions that cause a person’s holdings of capital stock of a registered Argentine company, to hold 5% or more of the voting power, should be immediately notified to the Comisión Nacional de Valores. Thereafter, every change in the holdings that represents a multiple of 5% of the voting power should also be notified.
Directors, senior managers, executive officers, members of the supervisory committee, and controlling shareholders of an Argentine company whose securities are publicly listed, should notify the Comisión Nacional de Valores on a monthly basis, of their beneficial ownership of shares, debt securities, and call and put options related to securities of such companies and their controlling, controlled or affiliated companies.
Holders of more than 50% of the common shares of a company or who otherwise have voting control of a company, as well as directors, officers and members of the supervisory committee, must provide the Comisión Nacional de Valores with annual reports setting forth their holdings in the capital stock of such companies and monthly reports of any change in their holdings.
Tender Offers
Tender offers under Argentine law may be voluntary or mandatory. In either case, the offer must be made addressed to all shareholders. In the case of a mandatory tender offer, the offer must also be made to the holders of subscription rights, stock options or convertible debt securities that directly or indirectly may grant a subscription, acquisition or conversion right on voting shares.
Executive Branch Decree No. 677/2001 establishes that a person or entity wishing to acquire a “significant holding” (“participaciones significativas”) shall be required to launch a mandatory tender offer.
A mandatory tender offer will not be required in those cases in which the purpose of the acquisition of the “significant holding” is not to acquire the control of a company.
The Comisión Nacional de Valores defines a “significant holding” as holdings that represent an equal or a higher percentage than 35% and 51% of the voting shares as the case may be.
When a person or an entity intends to acquire more than 35% of the shares of a company, a mandatory tender offer to purchase 50% of the corporate voting capital is required by law.
If a person or an entity owns between 35% and 51% of the shares of a company, and wishes to increase its holdings by at least 6% within a 12 month period, a mandatory tender offer to acquire shares representing at least 10% of the voting capital will be legally required.
When a person or an entity wishes to acquire more than 51% of the shares of a company, a mandatory tender offer to acquire 100% of the voting capital will be legally required.
- 156 -

Finally, when a shareholder controls 95% or more of the outstanding shares of a company, (i) any minority shareholder may, at any time, demand that the controlling party make an offer to purchase all of the remaining shares of the minority shareholders and (ii) the controlling party can issue a unilateral statement of intention to acquire all of the remaining shares owned by the other stockholders.
Pursuant to the Argentine Companies Law we may redeem our outstanding common shares only under the following circumstances:

| • | to cancel such shares and only after a decision to reduce our capital stock (with shareholder approval at an extraordinary shareholders’ meeting (asamblea extraordinaria);
| • | to avoid significant damage to our company under exceptional circumstances, and then only using retained earnings or free reserves that have been fully paid, which action must be ratified at the following ordinary shareholders’ meeting; or
| • | in the case of the acquisition by a third-party of our common shares.

The Public Offering of Securities Law provides for other circumstances under which our company, as a corporation whose shares are publicly listed, can repurchase our shares. The following are necessary conditions for the acquisition of our shares:

| • | the shares to be acquired shall be fully paid,
| • | there shall be a board of directors’ resolution containing a report of our supervisory committee or audit committee. Our board of director’s resolution must provide the purpose of the acquisition, the maximum amount to be invested, the maximum number of shares or the maximum percentage of capital that may be acquired and the maximum price to be paid for our shares. Our board of directors must give complete and detailed information to both shareholders and investors,
| • | the purchase shall be carried out with net profits or with free or optional reserves, and we must prove to the Comisión Nacional de Valores that we have the necessary liquidity and that the acquisition will not affect our solvency,
| • | under no circumstances may the shares acquired by our company, including those that may have been acquired before and held by us as treasury stock, be more than 10% of our capital stock or such lower percentage established by the Comisión Nacional de Valores after taking into account the trading volume of our shares.

Any shares acquired by us that exceed 10% of our capital stock must be disposed of within 90 days from the date of acquisition originating the excess without prejudice of the liability corresponding to our board of directors.
Transactions relating to the acquisition of our own shares may be carried out through open market transactions or through a public offering:

| • | in the case of acquisitions in the open market, the amount of shares purchased daily cannot exceed 25% of the mean daily traded volume of our shares during the previous 90 days.
| • | in either case, the Comisión Nacional de Valores can require that the acquisition be carried out through a public offering if the shares to be purchased represent a significant percentage in relation to the mean traded volume.

General Resolution No. 368/2001 of the Comisión Nacional de Valores as amended, provides general requirements that any company must comply with in the case of the acquisition of its shares under the Corporations Law or under the Public Offering of Securities Law. The acquisition of its shares by a company must be:

| • | approved by a resolution of the board of directors with a report of its supervisory committee,
| • | notice must be given to the Comisión Nacional de Valores and the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, and notice must be published in the Boletín of the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange or in a widely circulated newspaper in Argentina,
| • | be carried out with net profits or free reserves from the last financial statements and approved by the board of directors,
| • | the board of directors has to prove to the Comisión Nacional de Valores, that the company has the necessary liquidity and that the acquisition does not affect its solvency,
| • | all shares acquired by the company, including those that may have been acquired before and held by it as treasury stock, may not exceed 10% of its capital stock.

The General Resolution No. 535/08 of the Comisión Nacional de Valores establishes that the acquisition limit of up to 10% of the company’s own shares will be suspended up to December 31, 2008.
There are no legal limitations to ownership of our securities or to the exercise of voting rights pursuant to the ownership of our securities, by non-resident or foreign shareholders.
- 157 -

Registrations and Transfers
Our common shares are held in registered, book-entry form. The registry for our shares is maintained by Caja de Valores S.A. at its executive offices located at 25 de mayo 362, (C1002ABH) Buenos Aires, Argentina. Only those persons whose names appear on such share registry are recognized as owners of our common shares. Transfers, encumbrances and liens on our shares must be registered in our share registry and are only enforceable against us and third parties from the moment registration takes place.
Amendment to the by-laws.
On the shareholders’ meeting held on October 10, 2007, our shareholders decided to amend the following sections of the by-laws: (i) Section Thirteen in order to adapt the performance bonds granted by directors to current rules and regulations, and (ii) Section Sixteen in order to incorporate the possibility of holding remote board meetings pursuant the provisions of section 65 of Executive Branch Decree 677/01.
C. MATERIAL CONTRACTS
We do not have any material contract entered into outside the ordinary course of business other than some of the operations previously described under the Related Party Transactions, the Recent Developments and Our Indebtedness sections.
D. EXCHANGE CONTROLS
Foreign Currency Regulation
All transactions involving the purchase of foreign currency must be settled through the single free exchange market (Mercado Único Libre de Cambios, or “MULC”) where the Central Bank supervises the purchase and sale of foreign currency. Under Executive Branch Decree No. 260/2002, the Argentine government set up an exchange market through which all foreign currency exchange transactions are made. Such transactions are subject to the regulations and requirements imposed by the Central Bank. Under Communication “A” 3471, as amended, the Central Bank established certain restrictions and requirements applicable to foreign currency exchange transactions. If such restrictions and requirements are not met, criminal penalties shall be applied.
- 158 -

Outflow and Inflow of Capital
Inflow of capital.
Under Argentine Foreign Investment Law No. 21,382, as amended, and the wording restated under Executive Branch Decree No. 1853/1993, the purchase of stock of an Argentine company by an individual or legal entity domiciled abroad or by an Argentine “foreign capital” company (as defined under the Foreign Investment Law) represents a foreign investment.
Under Executive Branch Decree No. 616/2005, as amended, the Argentine government imposed certain restrictions on the inflow and outflow of foreign currency into and from the Argentine exchange market, including that inflowing new indebtedness and debt renewals by persons domiciled abroad must be agreed and cancelled within periods not shorter than 365 calendar days, irrespective of the method of payment. Additionally, such debt may not be prepaid before the lapse of such period. Such restrictions do not apply to (i) foreign trade financing, or (ii) primary public offering of equity or debt instruments issued under the public offering procedure and listed on self-regulated markets.
Pursuant to Communication “A” 4359, as amended, which regulated the Executive Branch Decree N° 616/2005, a registered, non-transferable and non-interest bearing deposit must be kept in Argentina for a period of 365 calendar days, in an amount equal to 30% of any inflow of funds into the domestic exchange market arising from (i) foreign debt (excluding foreign trade); and (ii) purchase of interests in Argentine companies that are not listed on self-regulated markets, except for direct investments and other transactions that may result in the inflow of foreign currency, or in indebtedness of a resident towards a nonresident. However, primary debt offerings by means of public offerings which are listed on a self-regulated market are exempted from such requirements. The mandatory deposit must be made in US dollars and held in Argentine financial institutions and it may not be used to guarantee or as collateral of any type of credit transactions.
Communication “A” 4377, amended by Communication “A” 4762 and 4933, exempted from keeping the 30% mandatory deposit the following transactions:

| i) | Inflows of funds made by Multilateral and Bilateral Credit Agencies, either directly or through their related agencies.

| ii) | Financial indebtedness with non-resident financial or private sector, to the extent the funds, net of taxes and expenses, are applied to the purchase of foreign currency for the payment of external debt services or the formation of long-term assets.

| iii) | Any other financial indebtedness with non-resident financial or private sector, to the extend the inflows had been incurred and repaid in an average term no less than two years, including principal and interests and, to the extent, the funds are applied to investment in non financial assets by the private sector.

| iv) | Foreign currency settlements by argentine residents derived from foreign currency loans granted by local financial institutions.

| v) | Direct investment contributions in local companies (pursuant to Communication “A” 4662 which defines “direct investment”as the participation in the capital stock which must be no less than 10%) and sale of interests in the capital stock of local companies to direct investors.

With respect to ítem v), there are some requirements aiming to comply with the accurate capitalization of the direct investment contribution regarding the actual capitalization and registration of the contribution with the Public Registry of Commerce in a term of 250 calendar days, otherwise, the mandatory deposit shall be made within 10 calendar days.
Additionally, Communication “A” 4901, dated February 5, 2009, exempts from the obligation to keep such mandatory deposit in the case of inflows into the exchange market made by nonresidents, when the Pesos resulting from the settlement of the foreign currency are applied within the following ten business days to any of the purposes set forth by the classification of current transactions in international accounts, namely: a) discharge of advance payments or liabilities for income and personal asset taxes payable by individuals who are regarded as residents from a tax standpoint; b) payment by nonresidents of contributions to the social security system or payments to employee-owned or prepaid healthcare systems; c) payment of other taxes which, given their nature, are borne by nonresidents in their capacity as taxpayers, and always provided that such payment does not entitle the nonresident to claims vis-à-vis the tax authorities or third parties; and d) other rates and services supplied by residents. In addition, such exemption on mandatory deposits, subject to certain additional requirements, is also applicable to funds remitted from abroad by nonresident companies on behalf of employees from international corporate groups who are temporarily abroad, to local companies responsible for the settlement of taxes and for making the relevant payments.

Outflow of capital, including the availability of cash or cash equivalents
Exchange Transactions Inquiry Program.
On October 28, 2011, the Federal Administration of Public Revenues (Administración Federal de Ingresos Públicos, “AFIP”) established an Exchange Transactions Inquiry Program (“Inquiry Program”) through which the entities authorized by the Central Bank to deal in foreign exchange must inquire and register through an IT system the total peso amount of each exchange transaction at the moment it is closed.
All foreign exchange sale transactions, whether involving foreign currency or banknotes, irrespective of their purpose or allocation, are subject to this inquiry and registration system, which determines whether transactions are “Validated” or “Inconsistent”.
Pursuant to Communication “A” 5239, later replaced by Communication “A” 5245, in the case of sales of foreign exchange (foreign currency or banknotes) for the formation of off-shore assets by residents without the obligation of subsequently allocating it to specific purpose, entities authorized to deal in foreign exchange may only allow transactions through the MULC by those clients who have obtained the validation and who comply with the rest of the requirements set forth in the applicable foreign exchange regulations. The following are exempted from the Inquiry Program, among others: a) international agencies and institutions that act as official export credit agencies, diplomatic and consular offices, bilateral agencies established under International Treaties; and b) local governments.
Sales of foreign exchange other than for the formation of off-shore assets by residents without a specific purpose are also exempted from the Inquiry Program, although, the financial entities must verify that the other requirements established by the MULC are accomplished.
On August 6th, 2012, Resolution #3210 was replaced by Resolution #3356 enacted by AFIP. This resolution sets forth more restrictions for the access to the foreign exchange market, in particular for the outflow of funds made by residents. Both resolutions (3210 and 3356) are related with Communications “A” 5239 (currently abrogated) and 5245.
Financial Indebtedness
In accordance with Communication “A” 5265, the transactions arising from financial indebtedness of the financial sector, private non-financial sector and local governments must be settled in the foreign exchange market.
The provisions reach indebtedness with bonds, financial loans and any other transaction by which a disbursement of funds from a non-resident had been carried out. The obligation of settlement through the MULC shall be conducted within 30 calendar days as from the date of the disbursement abroad and the transfer shall be deposited in a local bank account.
Any new financial indebtedness paid in through the MULC and any debt renewal with financial non-residents and private non-residents shall be settled, maintained and renewed for at least 365 calendar days as from the date of the disbursement, and they may not be prepaid before such term, whatever the manner of the cancellation of the obligation with the creditor had been agreed and independently of whether said cancellation is channeled through the MULC or not.
The primary issuance of publicly securities traded in self-regulated markets is exempted of the foregoing provisions.
Formation of off-shore assets by residents with and without subsequent allocation to specific purposes
On October 27, 2011, the Central Bank issued Communication “A” 5236 which rearranged all the regulations related to the purchase of foreign currency for the formation of off-shore assets by residents in the same text, (i.e. Communication “A” 5198 and 5220). Notwithstanding, as a result of several amendments of the restrictions to the foreign exchange marked to residents, certain provisions which allowed individual and legal entities to purchase foreign currency without specific allocation, has been suspended, In particular, the transactions described below has been affected by the new regulations (Communication “A” 5318 as of July, 5, 2012), preventing individuals who are Argentine residents, legal entities organized in Argentina and trusts set up with contributions from the national public sector, to perform the following transactions and, consequently, to transfer funds abroad:

| · | purchase up to US$ 2,000,000 per month for the following purposes: real estate investments abroad, loans to nonresidents, contributions by residents of direct investments abroad, off-shore portfolio investments by individuals, other off-shore investments by residents, off-shore portfolio investments by legal entities, purchase of foreign banknotes to be held in Argentina and purchases of traveler checks, and donations.

As it was mentioned, Communication “A” 5236, item 4.2. which regulated the outflow of fund allowing residents to access to the MULC for the formation of off-shore assets without a specific allocation by residents has been suspended and, up to now, the Central Bank has not issued any other measure or provisions in this regard.
Regardless the suspension stated by Communication “A” 5318, it is important to summarize the most relevant aspects related to the formation of off-shore assets with specific and no specific allocation which were ruled by Communication “A” 5236, items 4.1. and 4.2:

| · | Formation of off- shore assets for subsequent allocation for specific purposes: Up to January 27, 2012, individuals and legal entities domiciled in Argentina were authorized to purchase foreign currency without any limitation for the purpose of making direct investments abroad involving the production of non-financial goods and services, always provided that certain conditions are met (Communication “A” 5236, item 4.1).
| · | Formation of off-shore assets for subsequent allocation without specific purposes: individuals who were Argentine residents, legal entities organized in Argentina and trust set up with contributions from the national public sector were authorized to purchase up to US$2,000,000 per month for the following purposes: : real estate investments abroad, loans to nonresidents, contributions by residents of direct investments abroad, off-shore portfolio investments by individuals, other off-shore investments by residents, off-shore portfolio investments by legal entities, purchase of foreign banknotes to be held in Argentina and purchases of traveler checks, and donations (Communication “A” 5236, item 4.2).

Direct Investment Reporting System
Direct Investments made in Argentina by nonresidents
Under Communication “A” 4237, the Central Bank established a reporting system in connection with direct investments and real estate investments made by nonresidents in Argentina and by residents abroad.
Nonresidents must comply, every semester, with the above mentioned reporting system if the amount of the investment in Argentina reaches or exceeds US$ 500,000. If no such amount is reached, the reporting system is optional.
Direct investments made outside Argentina by Argentine residents
Argentine residents are required to meet the reporting system set forth in Communication “A” 4237 every year if the value of their investments abroad reaches or exceeds US$1.0 million and its under US$5.0 million, and every semester if it reaches or exceeds US$ 5.0 million. If the value of such investments abroad does not reach US$1.0 million, compliance with the reporting system is optional.
Sales of foreign exchange to nonresidents
The consent of the Central Bank is not requuired, unless the following conditions are met:
A. evidence is given that a smaller amount of foreign currency than the one intended to be purchased previously entered through the MULC during the nonresident’s period of stay in Argentina;
B. the original foreign exchange certificate through which the foreign currency entered is produced;
C. an equivalent to US$ 5,000 per client and per period of stay in Argentina is not exceeded.
For further details regarding the exchange regulations applicable in Argentina, investors should consult their professional advisers and read the full text of Executive Branch Decree 616/2005, Resolution No. 365/2005 of the Ministry of Economy and Production and Criminal Exchange Law No. 19,359, as well as the relevant regulations and supplementary provisions. Interested parties may consult such regulations through the website of the Ministry of Economy and Public Finance (http://www.infoleg.gob.ar) or the Central Bank (http://www.bcra.gob.ar).
Money Laundering
Argentine Law No. 25,246, as amended by Laws N° 26118, 26268 and 26683, categorizes money laundering as a crime, which is defined as the exchange, transfer, management, sale or any other use of money or other assets obtained through a crime, by a person who did not take part in such original crime, with the potential result that such original assets (or new assets resulting from such original assets) have the appearance of having been obtained through legitimate means. In spite of the fact that there is a particular amount by which the criminal type proceeds (AR$300,000), the crimes committed which assets’ value is lesser than said amount are also punished but the prison sentence is reduced.
After the enactment of Law 26,683, money laundering was included in the Penal Code as an independent crime against economic and financial order and it was split from the title “Concealment” like it was originally disposed. Therefore, money laundering is a crime which may be prosecuted independently.
- 162 -

| a) | The money laundering law creates the Financial Information Unit (UIF) who is in charge of the analysis, treatment and transmission of information in order to prevent and impede the money laundering originating from, among others:Crimes related to the traffic and illegal commercialization of drugs (Law N° 23,737)

| b) | Crimes related to arms traffic (Law N° 22,415);

| c) | Crimes related to illegal association o terrorist association

| d) | Crimes committed by illegal associations organized to commit crimes for political or racial purposes;

| e) | Crimes against Public Administration

| f) | Crimes of minor’s prostitution and child pornography

| g) | Crimes related to terrorism financing

The UIF analyzes the information received by the entities that have the obligation to report suspicious activities or operations and, as the case may be, inform the Public Ministry so as to carry out the investigations that may be considered relevant or necessary.
The money laundering legal framework in Argentina also assigns information and control duties to certain private sector entities, such as banks, agents, non-profits organizations, stock exchanges, insurance companies, according to the regulations of the Financial Information Unit, and for financial entities, the Central Bank. These regulations apply to many Argentine companies, including us. These obligations consist mainly of : (i) maintaining internal policies and procedures aimed at money laundering prevention and financing of terrorism, especially through the application of the policy “know your client”; (ii) reporting any suspicious activity or operation and (iii) acting according the Money Laundering Law with respect to the confidentiality of the information obtained from the clients. For that purpose, each entity involved must appoint a officer responsible for the monitoring and control under the Money Laundering Law.
On May 8, 2005, the CNV enacted Resolution No. 554 which establishes that broker-dealers and other intermediaries who are subject to its supervision can only take part in securities transactions if they are ordered by parties that are registered or domiciled in jurisdictions that are not included in the list of tax heavens included in Executive Branch Decree No 1344/98. Furthermore, the Resolution provides that securities transactions made by parties registered or domiciled in jurisdictions that are not included in such list, but that act as intermediaries of securities’ markets under the supervision of an agency similar to the CNV, are allowed only if such agency has signed a memorandum of mutual understanding with the CNV. Regarding the listed companies under the supervision of the CNV, the Resolution No. 554 states that they shall identify any entity or individual (whether or not a shareholder at that time), that makes a capital contribution or a significant loan, and comply with the same obligations established in the previous paragraph for the brokers-dealers and other intermediaries.
In connection with Resolution No. 554, the Central Bank issued Comunicación “A” 4940, as amended, which rules that non-residents of Argentina must obtain the prior approval of the Central Bank in order to purchase foreign currency in the exchange market to repatriate investments when the beneficiary of such repatriation is an individual or an entity registered or domiciled in a jurisdiction listed as a tax heaven in Executive Branch Decree No 1344/98.
E. TAXATION
United States Taxation
The following summary describes the material United States federal income tax consequences of the ownership of our common shares and ADSs as of the date hereof. The discussion set forth below is applicable to U.S. Holders (as defined below). Except where noted, this discussion deals only with U.S. Holders that hold our common shares or ADSs as capital assets. This summary does not represent a detailed description of the United States federal income tax consequences applicable to you if you are subject to special treatment under the United States federal income tax laws, including if you are:

| • | a bank;
| • | a dealer in securities or currencies;
| • | a financial institution;
| • | a regulated investment company;
| • | a real estate investment trust;
| • | an insurance company;
| • | a tax exempt organization;
| • | a person holding our common shares or ADSs as part of a hedging, integrated or conversion transaction, constructive sale or straddle;
| • | a trader in securities that has elected the mark-to-market method of accounting for your securities;
| • | a person liable for alternative minimum tax;
| • | a person who owns or is deemed to own 10% or more of the voting stock of our company;
| • | a partnership or other pass-through entity for United States federal income tax purposes; or
| • | a person whose “functional currency” is not the U.S. dollar.

Furthermore, the discussion below is based upon the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and regulations, rulings and judicial decisions thereunder as of the date hereof, and such authorities may be repealed, revoked or modified so as to result in United States federal income tax consequences different from those discussed below. In addition, this summary is based, in part, upon representations made by the depositary (the “Depositary”) to us and assumes that the deposit agreement governing the ADSs, and all other related agreements, will be performed in accordance with their terms.
IF YOU ARE CONSIDERING THE PURCHASE, OWNERSHIP OR DISPOSITION OF COMMON SHARES OR ADSS YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR CONCERNING THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO YOU AS WELL AS ANY CONSEQUENCES ARISING UNDER THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER TAXING JURISDICTION.
As used herein, the term “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of common shares or ADSs that is for United States federal income tax purposes:

| • | an individual citizen or resident of the United States;
| • | a corporation created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
| • | an estate the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source; or
| • | a trust if it (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable United States Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person.

If a partnership holds our common shares or ADSs, the tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. If you are a partner of a partnership holding our common shares or ADSs, you should consult your tax advisors.
ADSs
In general, for United States federal income tax purposes, U.S. Holders of ADSs will be treated as the owners of the underlying common shares that are represented by the ADSs. Accordingly, deposits or withdrawals of our common shares by U.S. Holders for ADSs will not be subject to United States federal income tax.
Distributions on Common Shares or ADSs
Subject to the discussion under “Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules” below, the gross amount of distributions on our common shares or ADSs (including amounts withheld to reflect Argentine withholding taxes, if any) will be taxable as dividends to the extent paid out of our current and accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under United States federal income tax principles). Such income (including withheld taxes) will be includable in your gross income as ordinary income on the day actually or constructively received by you, in the case of common shares, or by the Depositary, in the case of ADSs. Such dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction allowed to corporations under the Code.
With respect to non-corporate United States investors, certain dividends received before January 1, 2013 from a qualified foreign corporation may be subject to reduced rates of taxation. A foreign corporation is treated as a qualified foreign corporation with respect to dividends received from that corporation on shares (or ADSs backed by such shares) that are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. United States Treasury Department guidance indicates that our ADSs (which are listed on the NASDAQ), but not our common shares, are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. Thus, we do not believe that dividends that we pay on our common shares that are not backed by ADSs currently meet the conditions required for these reduced tax rates. Non-corporate holders that do not meet a minimum holding period requirement during which they are not protected from the risk of loss or that elect to treat the dividend income as “investment income” pursuant to Section 163(d)(4) of the Code will not be eligible for the reduced rates of taxation regardless of our status as a qualified foreign corporation. In addition, the rate reduction will not apply to dividends if the recipient of a dividend is obligated to make related payments with respect to positions in substantially similar or related property. This disallowance applies even if the minimum holding period has been met.
The amount of any dividend paid in Pesos will equal the U.S. Dollar value of the Pesos received calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the dividend is actually or constructively received by you in the case of common shares, or by the Depositary, in the case of ADSs, regardless of whether the Pesos are converted into U.S. Dollars. If the Pesos received are not converted into U.S. Dollars on the day of receipt, you will have a basis in the Pesos equal to their U.S. Dollar value on the date of receipt. Any gain or loss you realize on a subsequent conversion or other disposition of the Pesos will be treated as United States source ordinary income or loss.
Subject to certain significant conditions and limitations, Argentine tax withheld from dividends, if any, may be treated as foreign income tax eligible for credit or deduction against your United States federal income tax liability. For purposes of the foreign tax credit, dividends paid on the common shares or ADSs will be treated as income from sources outside the United States and will generally constitute passive category income. Further, in certain circumstances, if you have held ADSs or common shares for less than a specified minimum period during which you are not protected from risk of loss, or are obligated to make payments related to the dividends, you will not be allowed a foreign tax credit for foreign taxes imposed on dividends paid on ADSs or common shares. The rules governing the foreign tax credit are complex. Investors are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under their particular circumstances.
To the extent that the amount of any distribution (including amounts withheld to reflect Argentine withholding taxes, if any) exceeds our current and accumulated earnings and profits for a taxable year, as determined under United States federal income tax principles, the distribution will first be treated as a tax-free return of capital, causing a reduction in the adjusted basis of the ADSs or common shares, and the balance in excess of adjusted basis will be taxed as capital gain recognized on a sale or exchange. However, we do not expect to keep earnings and profits in accordance with United States federal income tax principles. Therefore, you should expect that a distribution will generally be treated as a dividend (as discussed above).
- 163 -

Taxation of Capital Gains
Subject to the discussion under “Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules” below, upon the sale, exchange or other disposition of common shares or ADSs, you generally will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the U.S. Dollar value of the amount realized upon the sale, exchange or other disposition and the adjusted tax basis of the common shares or ADSs, determined in U.S. Dollars. The capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if at the time of sale, exchange or other disposition you have held the common shares or ADSs for more than one year. Capital gains of individuals derived with respect to capital assets held for more than one year are eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. Any gain or loss you recognize will generally be treated as United States source gain or loss. Consequently, you may not be able to use the foreign tax credit arising from any Argentine tax imposed on the disposition of a common share or ADS unless such credit can be applied (subject to applicable limitations) against tax due on other income treated as derived from foreign sources.
Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules
Based on the current composition of our income and the valuation of our assets, including goodwill, we do not believe we were a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for United States federal income tax purposes for the taxable year ending June 30, 2012, and we do not currently expect to become a PFIC, although there can be no assurance in this regard. The determination of whether we are a PFIC is made annually. Accordingly, it is possible that we may be a PFIC in the current or any future taxable year due to changes in our asset or income composition or if our projections are not accurate. The volatility and instability of Argentina’s economic and financial system may substantially affect the composition of our income and assets. In addition, this determination is based on the interpretation of certain U.S. Treasury regulations relating to rental income, which regulations are potentially subject to differing interpretation.
In general, we will be a PFIC for any taxable year in which, either (i) at least 75% of the gross income of our company for the taxable year is passive income or (ii) at least 50% of the value (determined on the basis of a quarterly average) of our assets is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of passive income. For this purpose, passive income generally includes dividends, interest, royalties and rents (other than royalties and rents derived in the active conduct of a trade or business and not derived from a related person), annuities and gains from assets that produce passive income. If we own at least 25% by value of the stock of another corporation, we will be treated for purposes of the PFIC tests as owning a proportionate share of the assets of the other corporation, and as receiving directly a proportionate share of the other corporation’s income.
If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which you hold common shares or ADSs in our company, unless you make the mark-to-market election discussed below, you will be subject to special tax rules discussed below.
If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which you hold our common shares or ADSs, you will be subject to special tax rules with respect to any “excess distribution” received and any gain realized from a sale or other disposition, including a pledge, of such common shares or ADSs. Distributions received in a taxable year that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received during the shorter of the three preceding taxable years or your holding period for the common shares or ADSs will be treated as excess distributions. Under these special tax rules (i) the excess distribution or gain will be allocated ratably over your holding period for the common shares or ADSs, (ii) the amount allocated to the current taxable year, and any taxable year prior to the first taxable year in which we were a PFIC, will be treated as ordinary income, and (iii) the amount allocated to each other year will be subject to tax at the highest tax rate in effect for that year and the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the resulting tax attributable to each such year.
If we are a PFIC for any taxable year during which you hold our common shares or ADSs and any of our non-United States subsidiaries is also a PFIC, a U.S. Holder would be treated as owning a proportionate amount (by value) of the common shares of the lower tier PFIC for purposes of the application of these rules. You are urged to consult your tax advisors about the application of the PFIC rules to any of our subsidiaries.
In addition, non-corporate U.S. Holders will not be eligible for reduced rates of taxation on any dividends received from us before January 1, 2013, if we are a PFIC in the taxable year in which such dividends are paid or in the preceding taxable year.
In certain circumstances, in lieu of being subject to the excess distribution rules discussed above, you may make an election to include gain on the stock of a PFIC as ordinary income under a mark-to-market method provided that such stock is regularly traded on a qualified exchange. Under current law, the mark-to-market election is only available for stock traded on certain designated United States exchanges and foreign exchanges which meet certain trading, listing, financial disclosure and other requirements to be treated as a qualified exchange under applicable United States Treasury regulations. Consequently, the mark-to-market election may be available to you with respect to the ADSs because the ADSs are listed on the NASDAQ, which constitutes a qualified exchange under the regulations, although there can be no assurance that the ADSs will be regularly traded. You should note that only the ADSs and not the common shares are listed on the NASDAQ. The common shares are listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange. Consequently, the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange would also need to meet the trading, listing, financial disclosure and other requirements of the United States Treasury regulations. The ADSs or common shares would also need to be regularly traded on such exchanges in order for the ADSs or common shares to be potentially eligible for the mark-to-market election.
If we are a PFIC in any taxable year in which you hold our common shares or ADSs, but you do not make a mark-to-market election until a subsequent taxable year, you will be subject to special rules in the taxable year of the election. You should consult your own tax advisors regarding the application of the mark-to-market election in your particular situation.
If you make an effective mark-to-market election, you will include in income each year that we are a PFIC as ordinary income, rather than capital gain, the excess, if any, of the fair market value of your common shares or ADSs at the end of the taxable year over your adjusted tax basis in the common shares or ADSs and will be permitted an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of such common shares or ADSs over their fair market value at the end of each such taxable year, but only to the extent of the net amount previously included in income as a result of the mark-to-market election. Your basis in the common shares or ADSs will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts. Any gain or loss on the sale of the common shares or ADSs will be ordinary income or loss, except that such loss will be ordinary loss only to the extent of the previously included net mark-to-market gain.
If you make a mark-to-market election it will be effective for the taxable year for which the election is made and all subsequent taxable years unless the common shares or ADSs are no longer regularly traded on a qualified exchange or the Internal Revenue Service consents to the revocation of the election. Under proposed Treasury regulations, mark-to-market inclusions and deductions will be suspended during taxable years in which we are not a PFIC, but would resume if we subsequently become a PFIC. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor about the availability of making such a mark-to-market election.
Alternatively, a United States Holder of common shares or ADSs in a PFIC can sometimes avoid the rules described above by electing to treat the company as a “qualified electing fund” under Section 1295 of the Code. This option is not available to you because we do not intend to comply with the requirements necessary to permit you to make this election.
- 164 -

A United States Holder who owns common shares or ADSs during any year that we are a PFIC must file IRS Form 8621.
You should consult your own tax advisors concerning the United States federal income tax consequences of holding the common shares or ADSs if we are considered a PFIC in any taxable year.
Argentine Personal Assets Tax
Amounts paid on account of the Argentine Personal Assets Tax, if any, will not be eligible as a credit against your United States federal income tax liability, but may be deductible subject to applicable limitations in the Code.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
In general, information reporting requirements will apply to distributions on common shares or ADSs and to the proceeds of sale of a common share or ADS paid to you within the United States (and in certain cases, outside the United States), unless you are an exempt recipient. Backup withholding may apply to such payments if you fail to provide a correct taxpayer identification number or certification of other exempt status or fail to report in full dividend and interest income.
Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against your United States federal income tax liability provided you furnish the required information to the Internal Revenue Service.
Argentine Taxation
The following discussion is a summary of certain Argentine tax considerations associated with an investment in, ownership or disposition of, the common share rights, the ADS rights, the common shares, or the ADSs by (i) an individual holder that is resident in Argentina, (ii) an individual holder that is neither domiciled nor resident in Argentina, (iii) a legal entity organized under the laws of Argentina, (iv) a permanent establishment in Argentina of a foreign entity and (v) a legal entity that is not organized under the laws of Argentina that does not have a permanent establishment in Argentina and is not otherwise doing business in Argentina on a regular basis. The discussion is for general information only and is based on current Argentine tax laws. Moreover, while this summary is considered to be a correct interpretation of existing laws in force as of the date of this filing, no assurance can be given that the courts or administrative authorities responsible for the administration of such laws will agree with this interpretation or that changes in such laws or interpretations will not occur.
PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES ARISING UNDER ANY TAXING JURISDICTION.
Taxation of Dividends
Dividends, either in cash, common shares, or kind approved by our shareholders are currently exempt from Argentine withholding or other taxes.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, according to Argentine law, income tax will be applied to the amount of dividends distributed in excess of a company’s net taxable income determined in accordance with general income tax regulations for the fiscal years preceding the date of the distribution of such dividends. The legislation requires that companies withhold 35% of the amount of distributed dividends in excess of the net taxable income of such distribution, as determined in accordance with the income tax law. The withholding would not be applied to the payment of future dividends derived out of retained earnings obtained in the fiscal years ended prior to December 30, 1998. Dividends distributed by an Argentine company are not subject to this tax to the extent that those dividends arise from dividend income or other distributions received by such company from other Argentine companies.
Taxation of Capital Gains
Due to certain amendments made to the Argentine Income Tax Law, it is not entirely clear whether certain amendments concerning payment of income tax on capital gains arising from the sale, exchange, or other disposition of common shares are in effect or not. Although Opinion No. 351 of the National Treasury General Attorney Office clarified the legal status of certain matters affecting the tax treatment of capital gains certain issues still remain unclear.
Decree No. 2284/1991 establishes that foreign holders without a permanent establishment in Argentina are not subject to taxation on capital gains derived from the sale or other form of disposition of the shares.
Resident individuals
Under what we believe to be a reasonable interpretation of existing applicable tax laws and regulations: (i) income derived from the sale, exchange or other disposition of common share rights, ADS rights, common shares, or ADSs by resident individuals who do not sell or dispose of Argentine common shares on a regular basis would not be subject to Argentine income tax, and (ii) although there still exists uncertainty regarding this issue, income derived from the sale, exchange or other disposition of common share rights, ADS rights, common shares, or ADSs by resident individuals who sell or disposes of Argentine common shares on a regular basis should be exempt from Argentine Income Tax.
Foreign beneficiaries
Capital gains obtained by nonresidents or foreign entities from the sale, exchange or other disposition of common share rights, ADS rights, common shares or ADSs are exempt from income tax. Pursuant to a reasonable interpretation of existing applicable laws and regulations, and although the matter is not completely free from doubt, such treatment should also apply to those foreign beneficiaries that qualify as “offshore entities” for Argentine tax law purposes. For this purpose, an offshore entity is any foreign legal entity which pursuant to its by-laws or to the applicable regulatory framework: (i) its principal activity is to invest outside the jurisdiction of its incorporation and/or (ii) cannot perform in such jurisdiction certain transactions.

Local entities
Capital gains obtained by Argentine entities (generally entities organized or incorporated under Argentine law, certain traders and intermediaries, local branches of non-Argentine entities, sole proprietorships and individuals carrying on certain commercial activities in Argentina) derived from the sale, exchange or other disposition of common share rights, ADS rights, common shares or ADSs are subject to income tax at the rate of 35%. Losses arising from the sale of common share rights, ADS rights, common shares, or ADSs can be applied only to offset such capital gains arising from sales of common share rights, ADS rights, common shares or ADSs.
WE RECOMMEND PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES CONCERNING THE SALE OR OTHER DISPOSITIONS OF THE COMMON SHARES OR ADSs.
Value Added Tax
The sale, exchange, disposition, or transfer of common share rights, ADS rights, common shares, or ADSs is not subject to Value Added Tax.
Personal Assets Tax
Law No. 25,585 issued on April 24, 2002 and published in the Official Gazette on May 15, 2002 (and applicable to personal assets held as of December 31, 2002) introduces amendments to Law No. 23,966 and imposes the personal assets tax on common shares and ADSs held by individuals and undivided estates domiciled or located in Argentina or abroad and legal entities not domiciled in Argentina, separately from other assets.
This amendment imposes the obligation to pay the personal assets tax on the Argentine private issuer of the common shares and ADSs, and authorizes it to seek recovery of the amount so paid, without limitation, by way of withholding or by foreclosing on the assets that gave rise to such payment. The tax is levied on the proportional equity value of the common shares as reflected in the most recent balance sheet closed as of December 31 of the taxable year, at the rate of 0.5% without any non-taxable minimum being applicable.
Our shareholders approved the absorption of personal asset tax by us for the years 2002 to 2011. There can be no assurance that in the future this tax will be absorbed by us.
Tax on Minimum Notional Income (Impuesto a la Ganancia Mínima Presunta, “IGMP”)
Companies domiciled in Argentina, partnerships, foundations, sole proprietorships, trusts, certain mutual funds organized in Argentina, and permanent business establishments owned by foreign persons, among other taxpayers, shall apply a 1% rate to the total value of assets held by such persons, above an aggregate nominal amount of Ps.200,000. Nevertheless, common shares and ADSs issued by entities subject to such tax are exempt from paying the IGMP.
Gross Income Tax
The gross income tax is a local tax; therefore, the rules of the relevant provincial jurisdiction should be considered, which may levy this tax on the purchase and sale, exchange or other disposition of common share rights, ADS rights, common shares, or ADSs, and/or the collection of dividends at an average rate of 6%, unless an exemption is applicable. In the particular case of the City of Buenos Aires, any transaction involving common shares and/or the collection of dividends and revaluations is exempt from this tax.
There is no gross profit tax withholding system applicable to the payments made to foreign beneficiaries.
Stamp Tax
The stamp tax is a local tax that is generally levied on the instrumentation of onerous acts executed within a certain provincial jurisdiction or outside a certain provincial jurisdiction but with effects in such jurisdiction; therefor, the rules of the relevant provincial jurisdiction should be considered for the issuance of instruments which implement onerous transactions (including issuance, subscription, placement and transfer) involving the common share rights, ADS rights, common shares or ADSs, executed in those jurisdictions, or with effects in those jurisdictions.
Notwithstanding, for the City of Buenos Aires, any instrument related to the transfer of shares which public offering is authorized by Comision Nacional de Valores is exempt from this tax.
Tax on Credits and Debits in Bank Accounts
This tax is levied upon debits and credits in bank accounts and upon other transactions which, due to their special nature and characteristics, are similar or could be used in substitution for a checking account, such as payments on behalf of or in the name of third parties, procedures for the collection of securities or documents, drafts and transfers of funds made by any means, when these transactions are performed by local banks.
The tax law and its regulations provide several exemptions to this tax. For example, it does not apply to entities recognized as exempt from income tax, to debits and credits relating to salaries, to retirement and pension emoluments credited directly by banking means and withdrawals made in connection with such credits and to credits in checking accounts originating from bank loans.
The general rate of the tax is 0.6%. An increased rate of 1.2% applies in cases in which there has been a substitution for the use of a checking account.
Pursuant to Argentine Regulatory Executive Branch Decree 380/2001, as amended, 34% of the tax paid on credits levied at the 0.6% rate and 17% of the tax paid on transactions levied at the 1.2% rate can be used, to its exhaustion, as a credit against income tax, tax on minimum notional income and/or the special contribution on cooperative capital.
- 166 -

Transfer Taxes
There are no taxes levied on the sales and/or transfers of shares or ADSs. Argentina imposes neither an estate nor gift tax on a decedent, donor, legatee or donee.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the provincial level, the Province of Buenos Aires passed Law No. 14,044 whereby it imposed a tax on the gratuitous transmission of property, effective as from January 1, 2010, whose basic features are as follows:

| • | The tax on gratuitous transmission of property is applicable to any enrichment resulting from transmissions made for no consideration, including: inheritances, legacies, donations, inheritance advance payments or any other event that implies a gratuitous monetary enrichment.

| • | The tax on gratuitous transmission of property is payable by individuals and artificial persons that are beneficiaries of a gratuitous transmission of property.

| • | For taxpayers domiciled in the Province of Buenos Aires, the tax on gratuitous transmission of property is applicable over the total amount of the gratuitous enrichment, in respect of property situated both in and outside of the Province of Buenos Aires. Instead, for taxpayers domiciled outside of the Province of Buenos Aires, the tax on gratuitous transmission of property is applicable only over the gratuitous enrichment resulting from the transmission of such property as is situated within the Province of Buenos Aires.

| • | The following property, among others, is deemed situated in the Province of Buenos Aires (i) securities and shares of stock, membership or equity interests and other negotiable instruments representing capital stock, issued by governmental or private entities and companies domiciled in the Province of Buenos Aires; (ii) securities, shares of stock and other negotiable instruments issued by private entities or companies domiciled in a different jurisdiction that were physically situated in the Province of Buenos Aires at the time of their transmission; and (iii) securities, shares of stock and other negotiable instruments representing capital stock or its equivalent issued by entities or companies domiciled in another jurisdiction which are also physically situated in another jurisdiction, in proportion to the issuers’ assets situated in the Province of Buenos Aires.

| • | Gratuitous transmissions of property are exempt from tax when their aggregate value, excluding deductions, exemptions and exclusions, is equal to or lower than $ 60,000 and it rises to $250.000 in the case of parents, children and spouse.

| • | Step-up rates from 4% to 15.9% have been established, based on the degree of kinship and taxable base involved.

The gratuitous transmission of common shares or ADSs could be subject to the tax on gratuitous transmission of property to the extent that it forms part of gratuitous transmissions of property made for an aggregate amount in excess of $ 60,000, excluding deductions, exemptions and exclusions.
As regards the existence of taxes on conveyances of property without valuable consideration in the remaining provincial jurisdictions, an analysis must be conducted based on the legislation of each province in particular.
Court and Other Taxes
In the event that it becomes necessary to institute legal actions in relation to the common shares or ADSs in Argentina, a court tax (currently at a rate of 3.0%) will be imposed on the amount of any claim brought before the Argentine courts sitting in the City of Buenos Aires.
No Argentine tax is imposed on the deposit or withdrawal of common shares in exchange for ADSs. Other than the taxes discussed above, no other Argentine taxes are applicable to an investment in common shares or ADSs. At present, there is no national tax specifically applicable to the transfer of securities.
Tax Treaties
Argentina has entered into tax treaties with several countries. There is currently no tax treaty or convention in effect between Argentina and the United States.

I. SUBSIDIARY INFORMATION
This section is not applicable.
Item 11. Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk
In the normal course of business we are exposed to commodity price, interest rate and exchange rate risks, primarily related to our integrated crop production activities. We manage our exposure to these risks through the use of various financial instruments, none of which are entered into for trading purposes. We have established policies and procedures governing the use of financial instruments. The use of financial derivative instruments is oriented to our core business and is supervised by internal control policies.
- 167 -

The following discusses our exposure to these risks. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results could vary materially as a result of a number of factors including those set forth in the risk factors section of this Annual Report. Uncertainties that are either non financial or unable to be quantified, such as political, economic, tax, other regulatory, or credit risks, are not included in the following assessment of our market risks.
Interest Rate Risk
The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, we maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents and short-term investments in a variety of securities, including both government and corporate obligations and money market funds.
Investments in both fixed rate and floating rate instruments carry varying degrees of interest rate risk. Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely impacted due to a rise in interest rates. In general, longer dated securities are subject to greater interest rate risk than shorter dated securities. While floating rate securities are generally subject to less interest rate risk than fixed rate securities, floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates decrease. Due in part to these factors, our investment income may fall short of expectations or we may suffer losses in principal if securities that have declined in market value due to changes in interest rates are sold. To date, we have not utilized derivative financial instruments to hedge interest rate risk; however, there can be no assurance as to the employment of hedging strategies in the future.
As of June 30, 2012 we had current investments of Ps. 586 million. In view of the nature of our total portfolio, an immediate 100 BPs parallel shift change in the interest rate curve would not have a significant impact on the value of our investment portfolio.
Foreign Exchange Risk
Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations could impact our cash flow in Pesos, since some of our products and inputs are payable in U.S. dollars. Although most of our liabilities are denominated in Pesos, a small percentage is in U.S. dollars, and fluctuations in the foreign currency exchange rate may affect us.
Foreign currency exchange restrictions imposed by the Argentine government in the future could prevent or restrict our access to U.S. dollars, thus affecting our ability to service our U.S. dollar-denominated liabilities. Also, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Peso and the U.S. dollar may adversely affect the U.S. dollar equivalent of the Peso price of our common shares on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, and as a result would likely affect the market price of our ADSs in the United States.
We use derivative instruments from time to time to minimize our financing costs. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to manage these risks in the future through a variety of strategies, including the use of hedging transactions. We do not use derivative instruments for speculative purposes.

Sensitivity to Exchange Rates and Interest Rates
We estimate, based on the composition of our balance sheet as of June 30, 2012, that every variation in the exchange rate of 1% against the U.S. dollars, plus or minus, would result in a variation of approximately Ps. 7.5 million of our consolidated financial indebtedness.
We estimate, based on the composition of our balance sheet as of June 30, 2012, that every variation in the interest rate of 100 basis points, plus or minus, to our current floating-rate consolidated debt denominated in Pesos would result in a variation of approximately Ps.1.4 million of interest expense on an annual basis, assuming no change in the principal amount of this indebtedness.
- 168 -

This sensitivity analysis provides only a limited, point-in-time view of the market risk sensitivity of certain of our financial instruments. The actual impact of our market foreign exchange rate and/or interest rate changes on our financial instruments may differ significantly from the impact shown in the sensitivity analysis.
Commodity Price Risk and Derivative Financial Instruments
We use derivative instruments to hedge risks arising out of our core agribusiness operations. We use a variety of commodity-based derivative instruments to manage our exposure to price volatility stemming from its integrated crop production activities. These instruments consist mainly of crop forwards, future contracts and put and call option contracts. Contract positions are designed to ensure that we will receive a defined minimum price for certain quantities of our production. The counterparties to the forwards generally are major financial institutions. In entering into these contracts, we have assumed the risk that might arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
We usually cover up to 40% of our crop production in order to finance our operating costs. The hedge consists of taking positions on purchased puts or sold futures and calls that assure a fixed exit price. In the past, we have never kept a short position greater than our crop inventories. From time to time we may keep an additional long position in derivatives to improve the use of land and capital allocation (i.e., the use of land for rent). It is not our current intention to be exposed in a long derivative position in excess of 50% of our real production.
Derivative financial instruments involve, to a varying degree, elements of market and credit risk not recognized in our financial statements. The market risk associated with these instruments resulting from price movements is expected to offset the market risk of the underlying transactions, assets and liabilities, being hedged. The counterparties to the agreements relating to our forwards contracts generally are large institutions with credit ratings equal to or higher than ours. We continually monitor the credit rating of such counterparties and seek to limit our financial exposure to any one financial institution. While the contract or notional amounts of derivative financial instruments provide one measure of the volume of these transactions, they do not represent the amount of our exposure to credit risk. The amounts potentially subject to credit risk (arising from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts) are generally limited to the amounts, if any, by which the counterparties’ obligations under the contracts exceed our obligations to the counterparties.
Futures and Options
As of June 30, 2012 we had arranged futures and options on the Futures Market and SWAP operations as follows:

Crops/SWAP |  | Tons |  |  | Margins |  |  | Premium paid or (collected) |  |  | Premium at fair value |  |  | Gain (loss) for valuation at year-end at fair value |

The result generated as of June 30, 2012 is included under “Financial Results” in the Statement of Income.
The deposits/costs on open futures and options as of June 30, 2012, were Ps.0.7 million, and futures generated an unrealized loss of Ps.0.1 million. The premiums paid/collected for open options as of June 30, 2012, were Ps.1.0 million; the market value of such options was of Ps. 0.8 million. The options resulted in an unrealized loss of Ps.0.2 million. The total unrealized profit on open futures, swaps and options was Ps.0.6 million as of June 30, 2012.
The fair value of our futures and options contracts is determined by calculating the market value of futures contracts, the market value of options acquired and sold and the margin deposits of these contracts. We use valuation models only for internal analysis. Therefore, figures set forth in our tables reflect real market prices used for pricing portfolio.
We combine our options operations with our futures operations, only as a means of reducing the exposure towards the decrease of the prices of our products, as being a producer means that the price is uncertain until the time our products are harvested and sold.

In its capacity as broker under secured agreements, Futuros y Opciones.Com S.A. assumes before the purchaser the obligation to perform the contract in the event the seller fails to deliver the goods. Such performance is implemented by returning any undelivered amounts agreed under the transaction as well as any price differences that may arise between the price for which the contract was closed and the price of the goods as of the date of its termination.
As of June 30, 2012, the balance of brokerage transactions carried out under secured agreements that were pending delivery within the agreed contractual terms, amounted to Ps. 14,668.
As of June 30, 2012, there are no unfulfilled contracts in which futures and Opciones.Com SA has been claimed in its capacity as guarantor.

Quantitative and qualitative disclosures about our subsidiary IRSA’s market risk
In the normal course of business, we are exposed to interest rate and exchange rate risks, primarily related to changes in exchanges and interest rates. We manage our exposure to these risks through the use of various financial instruments, none of which are entered into for trading purposes. We have established policies and procedures governing the use of such financial instruments. The use of financial derivative instruments is oriented to our core business and is supervised by internal control policies.
The following discusses our exposure to these risks. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results could vary materially as a result of a number of factors including those set forth in the risk factors section of this annual report. Uncertainties that are either nonfinancial or nonquantifiable, such as political, economic, tax, other regulatory, or credit risks, are not included in the following assessment of our market risks.
Interest Rate Risk
The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve capital while maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, we maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents and short-term investments in a variety of securities, including both government and corporate obligations and money market funds.

Fixed rate securities may have their fair market value adversely impacted due to a rise in interest rates. In general, longer dated securities are subject to greater interest rate risk than shorter dated securities. While floating rate securities are generally subject to less interest rate risk than fixed rate securities, floating rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates decrease. Due in part to these factors, our investment income may fall short of expectations or we may suffer losses in principal if securities that have declined in market value due to changes in interest rates are sold.
As of June 30, 2012 we had current investments of Ps. 380.6 million. In view of the nature of our total portfolio, an immediate 100 BPs parallel shift change in the interest rate curve would not have a significant impact on the value of our investment portfolio.
We are also exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of our borrowing activities, which include short-term borrowings, and other floating-rate long-term debt used to maintain liquidity and fund our business operations.
Foreign Exchange Risk
Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations could impact our cash flow in Pesos, since some of our products and inputs are payable in U.S. Dollars.
Foreign currency exchange restrictions imposed by the Argentine government in the future could prevent or restrict our access to U.S. Dollars, thus affecting our ability to service our U.S. Dollar-denominated liabilities. Also, fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Peso and the U.S. Dollar may adversely affect the U.S. Dollar equivalent of the Peso price of our common shares on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, and as a result would likely affect the market price of our GDSs in the United States.

Sensitivity to Exchange Rates and Interest rates
We are also exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of our borrowing activities, which include short-term borrowings, and other floating-rate long-term debt used to maintain liquidity and fund our business operations.
As of the date of this annual report, we have short term floating rate debt and an upward shift of 100 Bps in the general interest rate level would imply an increase of US$1.7 in our interest expense over the next fiscal year.
On the other hand, our outstanding fixed rate indebtedness is represented mainly by our notes due 2017 and 2020 which accrues interest at a fixed rate of 8.5% per year and 11.5% per year, respectively. As of June 30, 2012, the fair market value in Pesos equivalent of the 2017 notes was US$ 125.2 million and fair market value in Pesos equivalent of the 2020 notes was US$ 128.4 million (includes accrued interest). As a measure of sensitivity, an upward shift of 100 Bps in the general interest rate level would imply a decrease of 3.9% in 2017 notes fair market value and a decrese of 5.1% in 2020 notes fair market value.
In addition, Alto Palermo’s Series II fair market value tends to drop 4.5% per 100 Bps of increase in interest rate levels.
A change of 1% in Peso U.S. Dollar exchange rate would imply a Ps.19.4 million change in the Peso equivalent of our debt face value and increases our interest expenses in Ps.1.4 million annually. In addition, a change of 1% in Ps. / US$ exchange rate would imply a Ps.5.4 million change in the Peso equivalent of Alto Palermo’s debt face value and increases their interest expenses in Ps.0.4 million annually. As of June 30, 2012, the fair market value in Pesos equivalent of APSA Series I notes was Ps.452.3 million (includes accrued interest). As a measure of sensitivity, an upward shift of 100 Bps in the general interest rate level would imply a decrease of 3.7% in its fair market value.
We are also exposed to changes in interest rates as a result of Tarshop´s retained interests in securitized credit receivables, whose fair value depends, among other factors, on the TDFs interest rate. Under securitization programs, TDFs pay the variable interest rate published by the Argentine Central Bank, known as “BADLAR”, plus a fixed rate spread. This spread level is set according to the general market conditions at thew time of issuance.
Both TDFs “A” and “B” have different cap floor settings in order to mitigate interest rate exposure. Regarding to the fair value calculation, revolving series have less interest rate risk than non revolving series.
This sensitivity analysis provides only a limited, point-in-time view of the market risk sensitivity of certain of our financial instruments. The actual impact of our market foreign exchange rate and/or interest rate changes on our financial instruments may differ significantly from the impact shown in the sensitivity analysis.

E. PURCHASERS OF EQUITY SECURITIES BY THE ISSUER AND AFFILIATED PURCHASERS
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
On August 26, 2008, our Board of Directors decided to establish the terms of the share repurchase plan under the provisions of Section 68 of Law 17,811 (added by Executive Branch Decree number 677/2001) and the Rules of the Comisión Nacional de Valores, in order to help reduce the decline and fluctuations of quotation prices and strengthen its shares in the market. There have been signs of distortion in the price of shares when considering our financial strength based on the quality of its assets, including the lands of great productive value and appreciation potential, and the productive business developed by us in Argentina and other Latin American countries.
During fiscal year 2009, purchases of own shares amounted to 30,000,000 common shares, for which we paid US$ 21.0 million and Ps.1.7 million, thus fulfilling the terms and conditions of the share repurchase plan. As a result, by the end of Fiscal Year 2009 our investment in our own shares amounted to 5.98% of total capital stock.

G. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE.
Compliance with NASDAQ listing standards on corporate governance
Our corporate governance practices are governed by the applicable Argentine law; particularly, the Argentine Corporation Law No. 19,550, Executive Branch Decree No. 677/2001 and the Standards of the Comisión Nacional de Valores, as well as by its corporate by-laws.
We have securities that are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and are listed on the NASDAQ, and are therefore subject to corporate governance requirements applicable to NASDAQ-listed non-US companies (a “NASDAQ-listed” company).
Pursuant to NASDAQ Rule 5615(a)(3), NASDAQ -listed non-US companies that are categorized as “Foreign Private Issuers” and may follow home country corporate governance practice in lieu of the requirements of Rule 5615(a)(3), provided that the foreign private issuer complies with certain mandatory sections of Rule 5615(a)(3), discloses each requirement of Rule 5615(a)(3)that it does not follow and describes the home country practice followed in lieu of such requirement.
- 175 -

NASDAQ Standards for US companies | CRESUD’S CORPORATE PRACTICES
Rule 5250(d) - Distribution of Annual and Interim Reports. | In lieu of the requirements of Rule 5250(d), we follow Argentine law, which requires that companies issue publicly a Spanish language annual report, including annual Audited Consolidated Financial Statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Argentina, by filing such annual report with the Comisión Nacional de Valores and the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, within 70 calendar days following the close of our fiscal year. Interim reports must be filed with the Comisión Nacional de Valores and the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange within 42 calendar days following the close of each fiscal quarter. The Buenos Aires Stock Exchange publishes the annual reports and interim reports in the Buenos Aires Stock Market Bulletin and makes the bulletin available for inspection at its offices. In addition, we provide our shareholders annual and interim financial reports upon request. English language translations of our annual reports and interim reports are filed with the SEC on Form 20-F and Form 6K, respectively. We also send the English language translation of our annual report and quarterly press releases related to the interim financial and operating results to the Comisión Nacional de Valores which posts them on its website. Furthermore, under the terms of the Deposit Agreement, dated as of March 18, 1997, among us, The Bank of New York, as depositary, and owners of ADSs issued thereunder, we are required to furnish The Bank of New York with, among other things, English language translations of our annual reports. Annual reports are available for inspection by ADR holders at the offices of The Bank of New York located at, 101 Barclay Street, 22nd Floor, New York, New York. Finally, Argentine law requires that 20 calendar days before the date of a shareholders’ meeting, the board of directors must provide to our shareholders, at our executive office or through electronic means, all information relevant to the shareholders’ meeting, including copies of any documents to be considered by the shareholders (which includes the annual report).
Rule 5605(b)(1) - Majority of Independent Directors. | In lieu of the requirements of Rule 5605(b)(1),, we follow Argentine law which does not require that a majority of the board of directors be comprised of independent directors. Argentine law instead requires that public companies in Argentina must have a sufficient number of independent directors to be able to form an audit committee of at least three members, the majority of which must be independent pursuant to the criteria established by the Comisión Nacional de Valores.
Rule 5605(b)(2) - Executive Sessions of the Board of Directors. | In lieu of the requirements of Rule 5605(b)(2), we follow Argentine law which does not require independent directors to hold regularly scheduled meetings at which only such independent directors are present (i.e., executive sessions). Our board of directors as a whole is responsible for monitoring our affairs. In addition, under Argentine law, the board of directors may approve the delegation of specific responsibilities to designated directors or non-director managers. Also, it is mandatory for public companies to form a supervisory committee (composed of “syndics”) which is responsible for monitoring our legal compliance under Argentine law and compliance with our by-laws. Finally, our audit committee has regularly scheduled meetings and, as such, such meetings will serve a substantially similar purpose as executive sessions.
Rule 5605(d)(B) - Compensation of Officers. | In lieu of the requirements of Rule 5605(d)(B), we follow Argentine law which does not require companies to form a compensation committee comprised solely of independent directors. For the determination of the compensation of the chief executive officer and all other executive officers no decision of a majority of independent directors or a compensation committee comprised solely of independent directors is required under Argentine law. Under Argentine law, the board of directors is the corporate body responsible for determining the compensation of the chief executive officer and all other executive officers, so long as they are not directors. In addition, under Argentine law, the audit committee shall give its opinion about the reasonableness of management’s proposals on fees and option plans for our directors or managers.
Rule 5605(e) - Nomination of Directors. | In lieu of the requirements of Rule 5605(e), we follow Argentine law which requires that directors be nominated directly by the shareholders at the shareholders’ meeting and that they be selected and recommended by the shareholders themselves. Under Argentine law, it is the responsibility of the ordinary shareholders’ meeting to appoint and remove directors and to set their compensation.
Rule 5605(c)(1) - Audit Committee Charter. | In lieu of the requirements of Rule 5605(c)(1), we follow Argentine law which requires that audit committees have a charter but does not require that companies certify as to the adoption of the charter nor does it require an annual review and assessment thereof. Argentine law instead requires that companies prepare a proposed plan or course of action with respect to those matters which are the responsibility of our audit committee. Such plan or course of action could, at the discretion of our audit committee, include a review and assessment of the audit committee charter. We believe that we are in compliance with the requirements for audit committee charters provided for in the Sarbanes Oxley Act.
Rule 5605(c)(2) - Audit Committee Composition. | Argentine law does not require that companies have an audit committee comprised solely of independent directors and it is equally not customary business practice in Argentina to have such a committee. Argentine law instead requires that companies establish an audit committee with at least three members comprised of a majority of independent directors as defined by Argentine law. Nonetheless, although not required by Argentine law, hawse have a three member audit committee comprised of entirely independent directors in accordance with Rule 10(A)-3(b)(1) of the General rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as independence is defined in Rule 10(A)-3(b)(1). Further, Argentine law does not require companies to identify or designate a financial expert. As such, Although all the members of the audit committee have large corporate experience, as of the date of this annual report, the Board of Directors have not named designated a financial expert in accordance with the relevant SEC ruleson the audit committee. Although it is noted that all members of the audit committee have had significant corporate experience. In addition, hawse have a supervisory committee (“comisión fiscalizadora”) composed of three ‘syndics’ which are in charge of monitoring the legality, under Argentine law, of the actions of our board of directors and the conformity of such actions with our by-laws.
Rule 5620(c) - Quorum. | In lieu of the requirements of Rule 4350(f), we follow Argentine law and our bylaws, which distinguish between ordinary meetings and extraordinary meetings and require, in connection with ordinary meetings, that a quorum consist of a majority of stocks entitled to vote. If no quorum is present at the first meeting, a second meeting may be called, in which the shareholders present, regardless of their number, constitute a quorum. Resolutions may be adopted by an absolute majority of the votes present. Argentine law, and our bylaws, requires in connection with extraordinary meetings, that a quorum consist of 60% of the stock entitled to vote. However, if such quorum is not present at the first meeting, our bylaws provide that a second meeting may be called and may be held with the number of shareholders present. In both ordinary and extraordinary meetings, decisions are adopted by an absolute majority of votes present at the meeting, except for certain fundamental matters (such as mergers and spin-offs (when we are not the surviving entity and the surviving entity is not listed on any stock exchange), anticipated liquidation, change in its domicile outside of Argentina, total or partial recapitalization of its statutory capital following a loss, any transformation in our corporate legal form or a substantial change in our corporate purpose, or the issue of bonds) which require an approval by vote of the majority of all the stock entitled to vote (all stock being entitled to only one vote.
Rule 5620(b) -- Solicitation of Proxies. | In lieu of the requirements of Rule 5620(b), we follow Argentine law which requires that notices of shareholders’ meetings be published, for five consecutive days, in the Official Gazette and in a widely published newspaper in Argentina no earlier than 45 calendar days prior to the meeting and at least 20 calendar days prior to such meeting. In order to attend a meeting and be listed on the meeting registry, shareholders are required to submit evidence of their book-entry share account held at Caja de Valores up to three business days prior to the scheduled meeting date. If entitled to attend the meeting, a shareholder may be represented by proxy (properly executed and delivered with a certified signature) granted to any other person, with the exception of a director, syndic, member of the Comisión fiscalizadora, manager or employee of the issuer, which are prohibited by Argentine law from acting as proxies. In addition, our ADS holders receive, prior to the shareholders’ meeting, a notice listing the matters on the agenda, a copy of the annual report and a voting card.
Rule 5630(s) -- Conflicts of Interest | In lieu of the requirements of Rule 5630(a), we follow Argentine law which requires that related party transactions be approved by the audit committee when the transaction exceeds one percent (1%) of the corporation’s net worth, measured pursuant to the last audited balance sheet, so long as the relevant transaction exceeds the equivalent of three hundred thousand Argentine Pesos (Ps. 300,000). Directors can contract with the corporation only on an arm’s length basis. If the contract is not in accordance with prevailing market terms, such transaction must be pre-approved by the board of directors (excluding the interested director). In addition, under Argentine law, a shareholder is required to abstain from voting on a business transaction in which its interests may be in conflict with the interests of the company. In the event such shareholder votes on such business transaction and such business transaction would not have been approved without such shareholder’s vote, such shareholder may be liable to the company for damages and the resolution may be declared void.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Cresud Sociedad Anónima Comercial, Inmobiliaria, Financiera y Agropecuaria
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, of changes in shareholders’ equity and of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cresud Sociedad Anónima Comercial, Inmobiliaria, Financiera y Agropecuaria and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2012 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Argentina. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Accounting principles generally accepted in Argentina vary in certain significant respects from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Information relating to the nature and effect of such differences is presented in Note 31 to the consolidated financial statements.
As indicated in Note 29 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company will adopt International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) for its first time for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. According to Rule 562 of the Comisión Nacional de Valores (CNV), these consolidated financial statements should include a summarized note with certain reconciliations between Argentine GAAP and IFRS. The items and/or amounts in these reconciliations are subject to change and should only be deemed final when the consolidated financial statements prepared under IFRS for the first time as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 are issued.
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Cresud Sociedad Anónima Comercial, Inmobiliaria,
Financiera y Agropecuaria and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(Amounts in thousands of Argentine Pesos, except as otherwise indicated)

1. | Description of business

Cresud Sociedad Anónima Comercial, Inmobiliaria, Financiera y Agropecuaria (“Cresud” and together with its subsidiaries the “Company”) was incorporated in 1936 as a subsidiary of Credit Foncier, a Belgian company engaged in, among other things, providing rural and urban loans in Argentina and administering real estate holdings foreclosed by Credit Foncier. Credit Foncier was liquidated in 1959, and as part of such liquidation, the shares of Cresud were distributed to Credit Foncier’s shareholders. From the 1960s through the end of the 1970s, the business of the Company shifted exclusively to primary agricultural activities. Currently, the Company’s agribusiness operations are comprised of crop production, cattle raising and fattening, milk production, cattle feeding, certain forestry activities and brokerage activities. Through its agribusiness activities the Company transforms farmland and ultimately sells properties to profit from land value appreciation opportunities.
In addition, the Company through its subsidiary IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima ("IRSA"), a real estate company, is involved in the real estate business primarily comprising: (i) the acquisition and development of residential properties primarily for sale and the acquisition of undeveloped land reserves either for future development or sale, (ii) the acquisition, development and operation of office and other non-shopping center properties primarily for rental purposes, (iii) the acquisition, development and operation of shopping center properties, (iv) the acquisition and operation of luxury hotels, (v) the origination of consumer loans and credit card receivables and securitization activities and (vi) other non-core activities. IRSA is the only Argentine real estate company whose shares are listed and traded on both the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange (“BASE”) and the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”).

2. | Preparation of financial statements

a) Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in Argentina, as set forth by the Federación Argentina de Consejos Profesionales de Ciencias Económicas (“FACPCE”) and as implemented, adapted, amended, revised and/or supplemented by the Consejo Profesional de Ciencias Económicas de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (“CPCECABA”) (collectively Argentine GAAP). In addition, the Company must comply with the regulations of the Comisión Nacional de Valores (“CNV”), the National Securities Commission in Argentina, which differ in certain significant respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). Such differences involve methods of measuring the amounts shown in the consolidated financial statements as well as additional disclosures required by US GAAP and Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). A description of the significant differences between Argentine GAAP and US GAAP as they relate to the Company are set forth in Note 31 to these Consolidated Financial Statements.
As discussed in Note 2.d), in order to comply with regulations of the CNV, the Company discontinued inflation accounting as from February 28, 2003. Since Argentine GAAP required companies to discontinue inflation adjustments only as from October 1, 2003, the application of CNV resolution represented a departure from Argentine GAAP. However, due to low inflation rates during the period from March to September 2003, such a departure has not had a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
b) Basis of consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cresud and its subsidiaries over which Cresud has effective control. Investments in joint ventures and/or jointly controlled operations in which the Company exercises joint control are accounted for under the proportionate consolidation method (See Note 2.c). Investments in companies in which Cresud exercises significant influence, but not control, are accounted for under the equity method.
All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. Preparation of financial statements (continued)
b) Basis of consolidation (continued)
In accordance with Argentine GAAP, the presentation of the parent company´s individual financial statements is mandatory. Consolidated financial statements are to be included as supplementary information to the individual financial statements. For the purpose of these Consolidated Financial Statements, individual financial statements have been omitted since they are not required for SEC reporting purposes.
On December 23, 2010, the Company contributed capital into Cactus Argentina S.A. (“Cactus”) and increased its ownership interest from 48% to 80%. As a result, the Company obtained control of Cactus and began consolidating its accounts as from that date. Therefore, the consolidated statement of income of the Company for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 includes the share of profit or loss from under the equity method Cactus for the period July 1, 2010 through December 22, 2010, and the consolidated profit or loss of Cactus for the period from December 23, 2010 through June 30, 2011.
On December 23, 2010, the Company and Tarpon entered into an addendum to the Share Purchase Agreement dated April 28, 2010, pursuant to which the Company acquired from Tarpon 9.6 million additional shares and warrants of BrasilAgro for approximately US$ 78 million, representing 16.40% of the outstanding stock. After the transaction, the Company owned 35.75% of BrasilAgro’s outstanding stock and 130,351 warrants as of June 30, 2011.
Considering the increase in ownership interest together with the potential voting rights under the warrants and the Company's rights under the Shareholders’ Agreement, the Company should have started consolidating BrasilAgro as of the date of this acquisition for accounting purposes under Argentine GAAP.
However, when preparing the quarterly financial statements ended December 31, 2010, the Company took notice that BrasilAgro was going to pursue a capital raising transaction and the Company´s interest would be diluted as a result. Therefore, the Company determined that the conditions for consolidating BrasilAgro´s accounts were temporary as of that date and as a result, consolidation was not appropriate as of the date of acquisition. Consequently, the comparative consolidated statement of income and statement of cash flow of the Company do not include information consolidated with BrasilAgro.
Under Argentine GAAP, the assessment of the conditions for consolidation is made at each quarter-end. Due to recent market conditions, BrasilAgro subsequently decided not to complete the capital raising transaction in the short-term. The Company then determined that the conditions for consolidation for accounting purposes were triggered as of fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.
A description of the subsidiaries over which Cresud has effective control, with their respective percentage of direct capital stock owned, is presented as follows:

d) Presentation of financial statements in constant Argentine Pesos
On August 22, 1995, the Argentine Government issued Decree No. 316/95 discontinuing the requirement that financial information be restated for inflation for any date or period after August 31, 1995. Effective September 1, 1995 in accordance with CNV resolutions and Argentine GAAP, the Company began accounting for its financial transactions on a historical cost basis, without considering the effects of inflation. Prior to September 1, 1995, the consolidated financial statements were prepared on the basis of general price level accounting, which reflected changes in purchasing power of the Argentine Peso in the historical consolidated financial statements. The financial statement information of periods prior to August 31, 1995 was restated to pesos of general purchasing power as of August 31, 1995. The August 31, 1995 balances, adjusted to the general purchasing power of the Peso at that date, became the historical cost basis for subsequent accounting and reporting.
However, as a result of the inflationary environment in Argentina in 2002, the CPCECABA approved on March 6, 2002, a resolution reinstating the application of inflation accounting in financial statements as from

d) Presentation of financial statements in constant Argentine Pesos (continued)
January 1, 2002. This resolution provided that all recorded amounts restated for inflation through August 31, 1995, as well as those arising between that date and December 31, 2001 are to be considered stated in currency as of December 31, 2001.
On July 16, 2002, the Argentine government issued a decree, instructing the CNV to issue the necessary regulations for the acceptance of financial statements prepared in constant currency. On July 25, 2002, the CNV reinstated the requirement to submit financial statements in constant currency.
However, after considering inflation levels for the second half of 2002 and the first months of 2003, on March 25, 2003, the Argentine government repealed the provisions of the previous decree related to the inflation adjustment and instructed the CNV to issue the necessary regulations to preclude companies under its supervision from presenting price-level restated financial statements. Therefore, on April 8, 2003, the CNV issued a resolution providing for the discontinuance of inflation accounting as of March 1, 2003. The Company complied with the CNV resolution and accordingly recorded the effects of inflation until February 28, 2003.
Since Argentine GAAP required companies to discontinue inflation accounting as from October 1, 2003, the application of the CNV resolution represents a departure from generally accepted accounting principles in Argentina. However, due to the low level of inflation rates during the period from March 2003 through September 2003, such a departure has not had a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
e) Functional currency and reporting currency
The company´s functional and reporting currency is the Argentine Peso. Solely for the convenience of the reader certain amounts to the consolidated financial statements are expressed in Argentine Pesos, Brazilian Reais or US Dollars in the notes to these Consolidated Financial Statements. Translations should not be construed as a representation that the amounts shown could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. Dollars or Brazilian Reais, as applicable, at that or any other rate.

BrasilAgro – Maeda
On September 22, 2011 BrasilAgro executed an amendment to the ownership agreement of Jaborandi Ltd., whereby it assigns and transfers 1,766,038 of the shares in Jaborandi´s capital to Maeda. Following this transfer, BrasilAgro holds 14,572,661 shares and Maeda 7,212,271 shares. This transaction led to an investment loss in BrasilAgro's results of operations of R$ 1,135 (equal to Ps. 2,690). On that same date, as indicated in the Minutes of the Meeting of Shareholders, a decision was made to reduce the capital stock by R$ 12,508 (or Ps. 28,369) by means of redemption and cancellation of 12,508,586 shares. Of this total, R$ 7,775 (or Ps. 17,634) result from a capital reduction to offset against retained deficit by BrasilAgro while R$ 4,733 (or Ps. 10,735) were repaid to BrasilAgro for they related to capital in excess in relation to the Company's purpose. Consequently, the capital stock of Jaborandi Ltd. was increased to R$ 9,276 (or Ps. 21,039) and is composed of 9,276,346 shares, 50% of which are held by BrasilAgro while the remaining 50% is held by Maeda, so that each shareholder would have a 50% stake in the company, that is, 4,638,173 shares.
On March 23, 2012, the Company signed a new agreement with Maeda, the minority shareholder of Jaborandi Ltda. As a result, interest in BrasilAgro increased from 50% to 65.61%, while interest in Maeda decreased from 50% down to 34.39%.
The main terms of the agreement are as follows:
1. An increase in capital in Jaborandi Ltda. The total amount paid up was R$ 25,055, of which R$ 19,701 were contributed through the capitalization of advances for future increases in capital already made by BrasilAgro (R$ 12,531) and Maeda (R$ 7,171), and R$ 5,354 were contributed in cash by BrasilAgro.
2. Due to the non-performance of the business plan approved on September 22, 2011 and pursuant to the agreement between the parties, the holdings of Grupo Maeda in Jaborandi Ltda. were diluted proportionally to the contribution made.
3. In conformity with the notice sent by BrasilAgro on December 5, 2011, Maeda has lost its right to exercise the warrants issued by the Company.
4. The shareholder agreement of Jaborandi S.A. has been amended so that certain matters which required a special majority for approval, will now require only a simple majority of the voting capital if certain conditions are not met (e.g., if Maeda Group makes no capital contributions as committed within the agreed term).
On May 21, 2012, the Company acquired Maeda’s equity interest in Jaborandi S.A. and Jaborandi Ltda. in the amount of R$ 8,152 and R$ 11,808 (equal to Ps. 19,622 and Ps. 28,457), respectively, thus reaching to a 99.99% interest in such companies. The Company paid for the purchase price an outstanding balance of R$ 6,961 (equal to Ps. 16,776) owned by Maeda to the Company under a borrowing agreement and R$ 12,999 (equal to Ps. 29,508) in cash. As a result of the acquisition of a stake in Jaborandi S.A. and Jaborandi Ltda., the Company recorded goodwill in the amount of R$ 4,653 and R$ 1,132 (equal to Ps. 10,368 and Ps. 2,525).
As of the financial statements date, the Company holds a 99.99% interest in Jaborandi S.A..

In addition, the Group has the power to design 4 out of 9 members of Supertel’s Board of Directors and participates in the decisions taken by the Executive Committee of Supertel with respect to the acquisition, disposal and management of real estate assets. However, under no circumstances, the Group can exceed a 34% interest in the share capital of Supertel and/or holds a voting power higher to 34% in Supertel’s Shareholders Meetings.
Even though the Group exercises significant influence over Supertel, neither Supertel’s Preferred Shares nor Supertel’s Warrants give the Group access to economic benefits associated with an ownership interest over Supertel (the Group does not hold any interest over the share capital of Supertel). Therefore, Supertel’s Preferred Shares and Supertel’s Warrants are accounted as financial assets.

Acquisition of Lipstick, New York building
In July 2008, the Company (through its subsidiaries) acquired a 30% interest in “Metropolitan 885 Third Avenue LLC” (“Metropolitan”), a Delaware-based limited liability company and ultimate parent company of Metropolitan 885 Third Avenue Leasehold LLC (“Metropolitan Leasehold”). The main asset of Metropolitan Leasehold is a rental office building in New York City known as the “Lipstick Building” and the debt related to that asset. The framework included the following: (i) a put right exercisable until July 2011 to sell a 50% of the interest acquired at the same value paid plus interest at 4.5% per annum and (ii) a right of first offer to acquire a 60% portion of the 5% interest of the certain shareholders. The total price paid was US$ 22.6 million.
During 2009 in the context of the financial crisis Metropolitan incurred in significant losses due to impairment recognized in connection with the building. Since the Company’s share in Metropolitan’s losses exceeded its equity interest; the Company recognized a zero value on its investment although a liability of US$ 1.5 million which represented the Company’s maximum commitment to fund Metropolitan’s operations.
On November 16, 2010, Metropolitan 885 Third Avenue Leasehold LLC presented a plan of reorganization. The plan provides among other things the liquidation of Metropolitan and the issuance of new membership interest of Metropolitan Leasehold, the reorganized debtor, in favor of New Lipstick LLC, (the “New Metropolitan Leasehold Holding Company”).
In December 2010, the negotiations geared towards restructuring the amounts of the mortgage granted by the Royal Bank of Canada came to a successful conclusion. The debt was reduced from US$ 210.0 million to US$ 130.0 million (excluding accrued interest) at a Libor plus 400 basic points rate, which may not exceed a maximum rate of 6.25% and with a maturity date fixed at seven years. The junior indebtedness to Goldman, Sachs & Co., which had amounted to US$ 45.0 million (excluding accrued interest), was cancelled through a US$ 2.25 million payment.
Metropolitan Leasehold will maintain the existing ground leases in the same terms and conditions in which they had been initially agreed upon, for a remaining 66 years’ term. The final consent to this restructuring has already been tendered by all the parties concerned and the closing was consummated on December 30, 2010, as that is when the company New Lipstick LLC (“New Lipstick”), the New Metropolitan Leasehold Holding Company, made a US$ 15.0 million principal payment as downpayment of the newly restructured mortgage debt, thus reducing it from US$ 130.0 million to US$ 115.0 million.
As a consequence of said reorganization, the Company has indirectly – through New Lipstick – increased its equity interest in the Lipstick Building to 49%. This increase originated in a US$ 15.3 million capital contribution and in the fact that the put option for 50% of the shareholding initially acquired in Metropolitan, which had amounted to approximately US$ 11.3 million plus accrued interest, has been rendered ineffectual. Besides, the above-mentioned commitment, for US$ 1.5 million, ceased to be in effect.
Purchase of shares of TGLT S.A.
On November 4, 2010, APSA acquired 5,214,662 shares of common stock of TGLT S.A. (“TGLT”) following its initial public offering for Ps. 47.1 million in cash.

h) Use of estimates
The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company´s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of date of the Consolidated Financial Statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting fiscal years. Significant estimates include those required in the accounting for barter transactions, gain from recognition of inventories at net realizable value, provisions for allowances and contingencies, impairment of long-lived assets, depreciation and amortization, current value of assets acquired in business combination and assets acquisition, deferred income assets and asset tax credit. Future results could differ from those estimates and evaluations made at the date of preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements.

i) | Change in accounting policies

Resolution CD 93/2005 issued by the CPCECABA provided for the accounting treatment of differences between the tax basis and book basis of non-monetary items for deferred income tax calculation purposes when companies prepare price-level restated financial statements. This resolution mandated companies to treat these differences as temporary differences but allowed a one-time accommodation to continue treating these differences as permanent. As a result, the Company had elected to continue treating differences as permanent.
CNV issued General Ruling 592 and provided that issuers who have chosen to disclose de deferred tax liabilities arising from the inflation adjustment in the notes to the financial statements should recognize such liabilities against retained earnings for purposes of implementing the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). These liabilities may be recognized as of any interim or annual financial statement date through the fiscal year closing immediately before the first period of mandatory application of the IFRS.
For this reason, and for purposes of complying with the rulings of the CNV, the Company has recorded an adjustment to recognize the deferred tax liability. Therefore, the Company retroactively adjusted as of June 30, 2011 and 2010 as follows:

3. Significant accounting policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements. When appropriate, each accounting policy is discussed in the context of the two main businesses of the Company: agricultural and real estate businesses.

a) | Revenue recognition

· | Agriculture business

The Company primarily derives its revenues from the sale of crops, milk and live beef cattle, feed lot operation (through its equity investee Cactus), and services and leasing of its farms to third parties and brokerage activities and sale of farms.
The Company follows RT No. 22 “Agricultural Activities” which prescribes the accounting treatment, financial statement presentation, and disclosures related to agricultural activities. Agricultural activity is the management by an enterprise of the biological transformation of living animals or plants (biological assets) for sale, into agricultural produce, or into additional biological assets.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

a) | Revenue recognition (continued)

RT No. 22 prescribes, among other things, the accounting treatment for biological assets during its biological transformation. RT No. 22 establishes a hierarchy of measurement for biological assets depending on their stage of development. For a description of the measurement principles applied to the various biological assets within inventories see Note 3.g).
RT No. 22 defines biological transformation as the processes of growth, degeneration, production, and procreation that cause “qualitative or quantitative” changes in a biological asset. Biological assets are defined as living plants and animals. Agricultural produce such as harvested crops, beef, milk and raw materials are the harvested produce of biological assets. Biological transformation results in the following types of outcomes: asset changes through (i) growth (an increase in quantity or improvement in quality of an animal or plant), (ii) degeneration (a decrease in the quantity or deterioration in quality of an animal or plant), or (iii) procreation (creation of additional living animals or plants).
Under RT No. 22, the, statement of income shows the following line items relating to the agricultural activity:

· | Production Income: Production income is recognized when there is a qualitative or quantitative change in biological assets. As it relates to crops, production income is recognized when they are harvested. At the point of harvest and thereafter, harvested crops are measured at net realizable value, therefore, a gain is generally recognized for the difference between the cost recognized and net realizable value. Thus, under RT No. 22, gains are recognized when crops are harvested rather than when they are sold. As it relates to cattle, production income is recognized, for example, when a calf is born or there is a change in weight.

· | Cost of Production: Cost of production consists of costs directly related to the transformation of biological assets and agricultural produce. As it relates to crops, costs are capitalized as incurred. At the point of harvest, costs are recognized in the statement of income to match production income. As it relates to cattle, costs are recognized in the statement of income as incurred;

· | Sales: Revenue from the sale of agriculture produce is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue from cattle feeding operations primarily comprised of feeding, animal health and yardage, and revenue from operating leases and brokerage activities are recognized as services are performed. Sales represent the consideration received or receivable for the sale to third parties based generally on the applicable quoted market prices of the respective produce or biological asset in the respective markets at the point of sale. At the point of sale, the produce is measured at net realizable value, which generally reflects the sale price less direct selling costs, using the applicable quoted market price;

· | Cost of Sales: Cost of sales consists of certain direct costs related to the sales of agricultural produce other than selling expenses. The cost of sales represents the recognition as an expense of the produce held in inventory valued at net realizable value. Therefore, based on the description in sales and this line item, the amount of sales is generally equal to the cost of sales plus direct selling expenses. Based on this, the Company generally does not recognize any significant additional profit upon selling the inventory beyond the gains or losses recognized within the line item “unrealized gain (loss) on inventories”; Unrealized gain (loss) on inventories: Under RT No. 22, gains or losses that arise from measuring harvested produce and cattle at net realizable value are recognized in the statement of income in the period in which they arise. In addition, this line item generally includes gains or losses from futures and options contracts on agriculture produce. Revenue from the sale of farms is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

(i) the sale has been consummated;
(ii) the Company has determined that the buyer’s initial and continuing investments are adequate to demonstrate a commitment to pay for the property;
(iii) the Company’s receivable is not subject to future subordination; and

a) Revenue recognition (continued)
(iv) the Company has transferred to the buyer the risk of ownership, and does not have a continuing involvement in the property.
Under RT No. 22, the exhibits entitled “Cost of Sales” and “Cost of Production” present a reconciliation of changes in the carrying amount of biological assets between the beginning and the end of the relevant periods. This reconciliation includes (a) the gain or loss arising from changes in fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs; (b) increases due to purchases; (c) decreases attributable to sales and biological assets classified as held for sale; (d) increases due to harvest; and (e) other changes.

· | Real Estate Business

The Company through its subsidiary, IRSA, derives its revenues from domestic office and shopping center leases, the development and sale of properties, hotel operations and consumer financing.
Development sale and properties
Revenue from the sale of properties is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:
(i) the sale has been consummated;
(ii) the Company has determined that the buyer’s initial and continuing investments are adequate to demonstrate a commitment to pay for the property;
(iii) the Company’s receivable is not subject to future subordination; and
(iv) the Company has transferred to the buyer the risk of ownership, and does not have a continuing involvement in the property.
The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method of accounting with respect to sales of development properties under construction affected under fixed-priced contracts. Under this method, revenue is recognized based on the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs applied to the total budget cost. The Company does not commence revenue and cost recognition until such time as the decision to proceed with the project is made and construction activities have begun.
The percentage-of-completion method of accounting requires company’s management to prepare budgeted costs (i.e. the estimated costs of completion) in connection with sales of properties and/or units. All changes to estimated costs of completion are incorporated into revised estimates during the contract period.
Leases and services from office and other buildings
Leases with tenants are accounted for as operating leases. Tenants are charged a monthly rent. Rentalincome is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease and unpaid rents are included in accounts receivable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
The Company also charges its tenants a monthly administration fee relating to the administration and maintenance of the common area and the administration.
Leases and services from shopping center operations
Leases with tenants are accounted for as operating leases. Tenants are generally charged a rent which consists of the higher of (i) a monthly base rent (the “Base Rent”) and (ii) a specified percentage of the tenant’s monthly gross retail sales (the “Percentage Rent”) (which generally ranges between 4% and 10% of tenant’s gross sales). Furthermore, pursuant to the rent escalation clause in most leases, a tenant’s Base Rent generally increases between 7% and 12% each fiscal year during the term of the lease. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 the majority of the tenants were charged with the Percentage Rent.

3. Significant accounting policies (continued)
a) Revenue recognition (continued)
Rental of advertising space
Apsamedia S.A. (”Apsamedia”), subsidiary of APSA, is a lessor of advertising spaces in the group’s shopping centers. Revenues derived from this activity are recognized using the straight-line method over the life of the respective lease agreements.
Certain lease agreements contain provisions, which provide for rents based on a percentage of sales or based on a percentage of sales volume above a specified threshold. APSA determines the compliance with specific targets and calculates the additional rent on a monthly basis as provided for in the contracts. Thus, these contingent rents are not recognized until the required thresholds are exceeded.
Generally, the Company’s lease agreements vary from 36 to 120 months. Law No. 24,808 provides that tenants may rescind commercial lease agreements after the initial six months, upon not less than 60 days’ written notice, subject to penalties which vary from one to one and a half months rent if the tenant rescinds during the first fiscal year of its lease, and one month of rent if the tenant rescinds after the first fiscal year of its lease.
APSA also charges its tenants a monthly administration fee relating to the administration and maintenance of the common area and the administration of contributions made by tenants to finance promotional efforts for the overall shopping centers’ operations. The administration fee is prorated among the tenants according to their leases, which varies from shopping center to shopping center. Administration fees are recognized monthly when earned.
In addition to rent, tenants are generally charged “admission rights”, a non-refundable admission fee that tenants may be required to pay upon entering into a lease and upon lease renewal. Admission right is normally paid in one lump sum or in a small number of monthly installments. Admission rights are recognized using the straight-line method over the life of the respective lease agreements.
APSA also derives revenues for parking lot fees charged to visitors. Parking revenues are recognized as services are performed.
Lease agent operations
The Company, through a subsidiary of IRSA, Fibesa, acts as the leasing agent for APSA bringing together it and its potential lessees for the retail space available in certain of the Company’s shopping centers.
Fibesa’s revenues are derived primarily from success fees paid by tenants calculated as a percentage of the final rental income value for both the lessee and APSA. Revenues related to success fees are recognized at the time that the transaction is successfully concluded. A transaction is considered successfully concluded when both parties have signed the related lease contract.
Consumer Financing
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, APSA, through its subsidiary, Tarshop, and its jointly controlled entity, Apsamedia, was engaged in the origination of consumer loans and credit card transactions and securitization of corresponding receivables. As part of a plan, APSA sold 80% of Tarshop in September 2010, and acquired the remaining 50% in Apsamedia in January 2011. After acquisition of control in Apsamedia, APSA sold the receivables portfolio and other assets to Tarshop. Apsamedia continues as an entity with only residual activities. APSA continues in the consumer financing business through its 20% interest in Tarshop where it retained significant influence. Revenues from credit card transactions are primarily comprised of (i) merchant discount fees which are recognized when transactional information is received and processed by APSA; (ii) data processing services which consist of processing and printing cardholders statement of accounts, and which are recognized as services are provided; (iii) life and disability insurance charges to cardholders which are recognized on an up-front basis, and (iv) interest income generated by financing and lending activities. Revenues from financing and lending activities

are comprised of interest income which is recognized on an accrual basis. After the sale of 80% of Tarshop in September 2010, APSA maintains a 20% interest in the company´s business.
Hotel operations
The Company recognizes revenues from its rooms, catering, and restaurant facilities as earned on the close of each business day.

b) | Cash and cash equivalents

For purposes of the Consolidated Statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist of time deposits and mutual funds with original maturities of three months or less at date of purchase.

c) | Trade accounts receivable and payable

Trade accounts receivable and payable are stated at their cash price estimated at the time of the transaction, plus interest and implied financial components accrued on the basis of the internal rate of return determined at such time, provided if they are significant. The Company provides for losses relating to trade accounts receivable. The allowance for losses is based on management’s evaluation of various factors, including the credit risk of customers, historical trends and other information. While management uses the information available to make evaluations, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if future economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluations. Management has considered all events and/or transactions that are subject to reasonable and normal methods of estimation, and the consolidated financial statements reflect that consideration.
Financial receivables and payables have been valued at the amount deposited or collected, respectively, net of transaction costs, plus accrued interest based on the interest rate estimated at the time of the transaction. If, the Company has the intention and ability of selling financial receivables after the fiscal year-end, those receivables are valued at their net realizable value.
d) Investments
Current
Current investments included mutual funds, mortgage bonds, government bonds and time deposits. Mutual funds, mortgage bonds and government bonds are carried at market value as of fiscal year-end, with unrealized gains and losses reported in earnings. Time deposits are valued at cost plus accrued interest at fiscal year- end.
Unrealized gains and losses on these investments are included within “Financial results, net” in the statements of income.
Non-Current

· | Agriculture business

Investments in affiliates
Investments in affiliates in which the Company has control or significant influence (generally representing an equity interest between 20% and 50%) have been accounted for under the equity method. Management periodically evaluates the carrying value of its equity investments for impairment. The carrying value of equity investments is considered impaired when an other-than-temporary decrease in the value of the investments has occurred.

Investments in which the Company does not have significant influence have been accounted for under the cost plus dividend method.
The Company records gain or losses due to changes of interests in equity investees and/or subsidiaries, resulting from capital nature transactions between the equity investees and/or subsidiaries and other shareholders, in additional paid-in capital within shareholders’ equity.

· | Real Estate Business

Equity investments
Banco Hipotecario S.A. and Banco de Crédito y Securitización S.A.
During the last fiscal years and in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, IRSA has been conducting different purchase and sale transactions of BHSA shares, as a result of which, as of June 30, 2012, IRSA´s direct and indirect ownership interest in BHSA is 29.77% of BHSA´s capital stock (without considering treasury shares).
In accordance with regulations of the Banco Central de la República Argentina (“BCRA”) and also as imposed by the agreements signed by BHSA as a result of its financial debt restructuring process, there are certain restrictions on the distribution of profits by BHSA.
The financial statements of BHSA and BACSA are prepared in accordance with BCRA standards. For the purpose of valuation under the equity method of these investments, IRSA has made adjustments necessary to adequate these Consolidated Financial Statements to Argentine GAAP have been considered.
Tyrus S.A.
Foreign permanent investments held by IRSA through Tyrus S.A. in the Oriental Republic of Uruguay have been classified as “integrated” and “non-integrated” with IRSA’s transactions, considering the features of the mentioned investments and their transactions.
Metropolitan 885 Third Ave LLC (“Metropolitan”)
The Company, through IRSA, holds an indirect 30% equity interest in Metropolitan through IRSA International LLC and Tyrus S.A., wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company. See Note 2.f) for details.
Tarshop S.A.
As of June 30, 2012 the Company, through APSA, holds 20% equity interest in Tarshop. See Note 2.g) for details.
Cost investments.
Non-current investments also included investments in shares of other companies where the Company does not have control or significant influence. These investments are valued at cost less any impairment, if necessary.
Supertel Hospitality Inc.
The preferred shares and warrants of Supertel Hospitality Inc. (“SHI”) have been recorded as financial instruments. Even though the Company exercises significant influence over Supertel, neither Supertel’s Preferred Shares nor Supertel’s Warrants give the Company access to economic benefits associated with an ownership interest over Supertel (the Company does not hold any interest over the share capital of Supertel). Therefore, Supertel’s Preferred Shares and Supertel’s Warrants are accounted as financial assets at fair value through profit and loss, as

per the provisions of IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” and IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”, which were complementarily applied to Argentine GAAP.
The acquisition cost of such instruments has been segregated into preferred shares and warrants based on the estimated relative fair value of both instruments upon acquisition. In estimating such fair value, the valuation techniques used include parameters such SHI common shares market price, information not based on observable market data, probabilistic information, etc. The fair value estimated through these techniques exceeds the acquisition cost. In line with the international standards indicated above, that day one gains have not recognized.
Subsequently, any changes in the fair value of preferred shares and warrants are recognized in the period they occur under the item “Other holding gain (loss)”, included in “Financial results, net”. No material changes have occurred in the fair market value of the instruments between the acquisition date and June 30, 2012.
Contribution to Don Mario S.G.R.
On June 29, 2012, the Company invested Ps. 10 million in Don Mario SGR, a Sociedad de Garantía Recíproca under the Argentinean law. SGRs are legal entities in Argentina created solely to promote low cost financing to small and medium sized entities. Funds are obtained by SGRs through the contributions of investors who in turn obtain certain tax benefits among others. SGRs use the funds to lend money to entities which participate in the scheme as participating members. Investors rights over the investment are represented by nominal shares although they do not grant control or significant influence over the actions of the entity. This investment has been accounted for at cost.
Undeveloped parcels of land
IRSA acquires undeveloped land in order to provide an adequate and well-located supply for its residential and office building operations. IRSA's strategy for land acquisition and development is dictated by specific market conditions where IRSA conducts its operations.
Land held for development and sale and improvements are stated at cost (adjusted for inflation as described in Note 2.d) less allowances for impairment or estimated fair market value, whichever is lower. Land and land improvements are transferred to inventories or fixed assets, as appropriate, when IRSA determines that the properties are to be marketed for sale, when construction commences or the land is leased.
The carrying amount does not exceed their respective estimated recoverable value at the end of this fiscal year.

| e) | Business Combinations

Significant acquisitions are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method, the purchase price is allocated to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on their respective fair values in accordance with the provisions of RT No. 18. In making estimates of fair values, management utilizes a number of various sources.
When Company acquires properties, for fair value estimation purposes, the Company also considers information about each property obtained as a result of pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing and leasing activities. The Company allocates a portion of the purchase price to tangible assets including the fair value of the building on an as-if-vacant basis and to land determined either by real estate tax assessments, third-party appraisals or other relevant data. Generally the Company determines the as-if-vacant value by using a replacement cost method. Also, a portion of the purchase price is allocated to above-market and below-market in-place lease values for acquired properties based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining noncancelable term of the lease. The capitalized above-market and below-market lease values

e) Business Combinations (continued)
are amortized as a reduction of or an addition to rental income over the remaining noncancelable terms of the respective leases. Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the lease intangibles would be charged or credited to income. A portion of the purchase price is also allocated to the value of leases acquired and management utilizes independent sources or management's determination of the relative fair values of the respective in-place lease values. The Company´s estimates of value are made using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by management inperforming these analyses include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods, considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rental revenue during the expected lease-up periods based on current market demand.
The Company also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal expenses and other related costs. Other intangible assets acquired may include tenant relationships which are valued based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company’s overall relationship with the respective tenant. The Company has not identified any lessee with whom it has developed a type of relationship allowing the recognition of an intangible asset.
f) Negative goodwill and goodwill
Negative goodwill, net represents the net effect of goodwill and negative goodwill arising out of business combinations.
Negative goodwill
Negative goodwill represents the excess of fair value of net assets acquired over cost. Under Argentine GAAP, when negative goodwill exists, acquired intangible assets are assigned a zero value. Negative goodwill is accounted for as follows: (i) the portion of negative goodwill related to future expected losses is recognized in income in the same periods losses are incurred; (ii) the amount exceeding the interest over the non-monetary assets is recognized in income at acquisition date; and (iii) the amount not in excess of the equity interest over the non-monetary assets is recognized as negative goodwill and amortized under the straight line method over the weighted average useful lives of the identifiable assets of the acquired, not exceeding 20 years.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net identifiable assets and is amortized under the straight-line method over the weighted average useful life of the main tangible assets acquired.
The carrying amount does not exceed their respective estimated recoverable value at the end of this fiscal year.
g) Inventories

· | Agriculture business

The following is a description of each group of biological assets, categorized by stage of biological transformation:
Biological assets which have not attained significant biological growth are measured at cost less any impairment losses. Capitalized expenses for growing biological assets include land preparation expenses and other direct production expenses including but not limited to labor costs, seeds, fertilizers and agrochemicals, vaccines, fuel and others.

g) Inventories (continued)
The Company distinguishes between consumable and bearer biological assets. “Bearer” biological assets are those assets capable of producing more than one harvest, for example livestock from which milk is produced or breeding cattle. “Consumable” biological assets are those assets that may be harvested as agriculture produce or sold as biological assets, for example livestock intended for the production of meat and/or livestock held for sale.
Bearer biological assets are measured at replacement cost. Consumable biological assets in the form of unharvested crops are measured at cost less any impairment losses. Consumable biological assets in the form livestock held for sale or to be slaughtered for meat production are measured at net realizable value at fiscal year-end. Net realizable value is based on the prices relevant in the respective markets less selling costs.
Harvested produce is measured at net realizable value. Net realizable value is represented by fiscal year-end quoted prices in the markets in which the Company regularly operates, net of additional selling costs.
Non-biological assets – raw materials (including seeds, agrochemicals, semen – cattle raising and diary, food and by-products, packs and bundles, poles, bags and blankets, silos, raw materials). These assets are valued at reproduction or replacement cost as of fiscal year-end, which does not exceed the net realizable value.
All other inventories are valued at replacement cost.
The carrying values of inventories do not exceed their estimated recoverable values at the date of these financial statements.

· | Real Estate Business

Inventories are comprised primarily of properties held for development and sale and to a lesser extent other minor inventories from hotel operations. A property is classified as held for sale upon determination by the Board of Directors that the property is to be marketed for sale in the normal course of business.
Residential, office and other non-retail properties completed or under construction are stated at acquisition or construction cost (adjusted for inflation as described in Note 2.d)) less allowances for impairment or estimated fair market value, whichever is lower. The Company records impairment losses for certain inventories which have market values lower than costs. Costs include land and land improvements, direct construction costs, construction overhead cost, financial cost and real estate taxes.
In addition, inventory includes receivables representing the rights to receive certain property units. The units relating to the projects called “Caballito (CYRSA)”, “Caballito (Koad)”, “Benavidez”, “Rosario” and “Dique III” have been valued at acquisition cost.
Inventories on which the Company received down payments that fix the sales price and the terms and conditions of the contract provide reasonable assurance the closing of the transaction and realization of the gain are valued at net realizable value. See “Gain from recognition of inventories at net realizable value” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Properties held for sale are classified as current or non-current based on the estimated date of sale and the time at which the related receivable is expected to be collected by the Company.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2002, 2003 and 2005, the Company recognized significant impairment losses. As permitted by Argentine GAAP, due to increases in fair market values, these impairment charges were subsequently reversed partially during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2004 through the current fiscal year. Impairment charges and subsequent reversals are included in the line item "Gain from operations and holdings of real estate assets, net" in the statement of income. The balance of allowance for impairment of inventory amount to Ps. 83 and Ps. 29 as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. See Note 3.n) for details on accounting for impairment losses.

h) | Property and equipment

· | Agriculture business

Farmlands are valued at cost (adjusted for inflation as described in Note 2.d.), based on the corresponding dates of origin or its cost.
Accumulated depreciation is computed under the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as from the month of the fiscal year of addition.
The net carrying value of farmlands does not exceed their recoverable value at the end of the period or the fiscal year.
Tree plantations (wood) have been valued at cost less accumulated depreciation as the Company has no intention to sell it, but use it in the production process.
Depreciation expense has been calculated based on the remaining concession term.
The estimated useful life of alfalfa fields and meadow is between 2 and 8 years and of mass wood is 30 years.

· | Real Estate Business

Property and equipment are comprised primarily of rental properties (including office and shopping centers), hotels and other property and equipment held for use by the Company.
Rental properties (including office and shopping centers)
Rental properties are carried at cost (adjusted for inflation as described in Note 2.d)), less accumulated depreciation and allowances for impairment. Accumulated depreciation is computed under the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated remaining useful lives. At the time depreciable assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and the accumulated depreciation and allowances for impairment of the assets are removed from the accounts and any profit or loss is recognized. IRSA capitalizes financial costs (interest and foreign exchange differences) on long-term construction projects. Capitalized financial costs amounted to Ps. 1.5 million and Ps. 1.7 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, mainly in connection with the construction of the Panamerican Mall, Shopping Alto Rosario and Dique IV.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2002, 2003 and 2005 IRSA recognized significant impairment losses. As permitted by Argentine GAAP, due to increases in fair market values, these impairment charges were subsequently reversed partially during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2003 through the current fiscal year. Impairment charges and subsequent reversals are included in the line item "Unrealized gain (loss) on inventories" in the statement of income. The balance of allowance for impairment of fixed assets amounts to Ps. 1,814 and Ps. 2,507, as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Other property and equipment (common to agricultural and real estate business)
Other property and equipment are carried at cost (adjusted for inflation as described in Note 2.d)), less accumulated depreciation at the end of the fiscal year. Accumulated depreciation is computed under the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as specified below:

The cost of maintenance and repairs is expensed as incurred. The cost of significant renewals and improvements is added to the carrying amount of the respective asset.
When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the statements of income.

| i) Intangible assets

· | Agriculture business

Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization.

| Preoperating expenses

Represents primarily expenses incurred in the development of the new international businesses in Bolivia and Paraguay.

The value of these intangible assets does not exceed their estimated recoverable value at fiscal year-end.
Concession rights
Relate to the concession rights acquired as part of the Agropecuaria Anta S.A. acquisition. Concession rights acquired were valued at fair value at the time of the acquisition. Concession rights are amortized under the straight-line basis over the term of the concession, as from the beginning of operations (i.e. 30 years).
The carrying value of concession rights does not exceed their estimated recoverable value at the end of these financial statements.

· | Real Estate Business

Intangible assets are carried at cost restated (as mentioned in Note 2.d)), less accumulated amortization.

Above and below market leases an In-place leases
See Note 3.f) for details on accounting for these intangibles.
Concession rights
Represent Arcos’ concession right, which will be amortized over the life of the concession agreement upon commencement of operations.

| j) Foreign currency assets and liabilities

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are incorporated into the accounting records of the Company in Argentine Pesos at the exchange rate prevailing at the time of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities in foreign currencies at fiscal year-end are then translated into Argentine Pesos at closing exchange rates. Assets and liabilities and income and expenses in foreign currencies generate transaction gains and losses, which are recorded within “Financial results, net” in the consolidated statements of income.

| k) Income tax provision

The subsidiaries of the Company calculate their income taxes on a separate basis. The Company did not either calculate or pay income taxes on a consolidated basis for any of the periods presented. The statutory income tax rate was 35.0% for all years presented.
The Company records income taxes using the deferred tax method required by Technical Resolution No. 17 “Overall Considerations for the Preparation of Financial Statements” (“RT 17”). Accordingly, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recorded or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the fiscal year that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized for that component of net deferred tax assets which is more likely than not to be recoverable.

| l) Minimum presumed income tax (MPIT)

The Company is subject to the MPIT. Pursuant to this tax regime, the Company is required to pay the greater of the income tax or the MPIT. Any excess of the MPIT over the income tax may be carried forward and recognized as a tax credit against future income taxes payable over a 10-year period. The MPIT provision is calculated on an individual entity basis at the statutory asset tax rate of 1% and is based upon the taxable assets of each company as of the end of the fiscal year, as defined by Argentine law. In the opinion of management, it is probable that the Company will utilize such asset against future taxable income charges within the next ten years and, as a result, the Company has recognized the accumulated MPIT charge within “Other current and non-current receivables”, as appropriate, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. This tax credit has been recorded at its nominal value.

| m) Provisions for allowances and contingencies

The Company provides for losses relating to accounts and mortgage receivables. The Company accrues losses when they are probable of occurring and estimable. When applicable the Company measures impairment on an individual basis, generally for larger balances of non-homogeneous receivables. When individually assessed, losses are accrued based on the differences between the value of collateral, present value of future cash flows or values that are observable in the secondary market and the loan balance. When applicable, an asset-specific allowance is established when the discounted cash flows, collateral value (less disposal costs), or observable market price of the impaired loan is lower than its carrying value. This allowance considers the borrower’s overall financial condition, resources, and payment record, the prospects for support from any financially responsible guarantors and, if appropriate, the realizable value of any collateral.
The Company collectively evaluates for impairment smaller-balance homogeneous loans, including residential mortgage loans. For purposes of a collective evaluation of impairment, mortgage receivables and consumer financing loans are grouped on the basis of similar risk characteristics, taking into account asset type, collateral type, past-due status and other relevant factors. The Company applies allowance factors, which in the judgment of management represent the expected losses over the life of the loans. In determining those factors, the Company considers the following: (i) delinquencies and overall risk ratings, (ii) loss history, (iii) trends in volume and terms of loans, (iv) effects of changes in lending policy, (v) the experience and depth of the borrowers’ management, (vi) national and local economic trends, (vii) concentrations of credit by individual credit size and by class of loans, (viii) quality of loan review system, and (ix) the effect of external factors (e.g., competition and regulatory requirements).
The Company has certain contingent liabilities with respect to existing or potential claims, lawsuits and other proceedings, including those involving tax claims and labor. The Company accrues liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are based on developments to date, the Company's estimates of the outcomes of these matters and the Company’s lawyers’ experience in contesting, litigating and settling other matters. As the scope of the liabilities becomes better defined, there may be changes in the estimates of future costs, which could have a material effect on the Company's future results of operations and financial condition or liquidity.
At the date of issuance of these Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company’s Management understands that there are no other elements to determine other potential contingencies that could have a negative impact on these Consolidated Financial Statements.

| n) Impairment of long-lived assets

The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of its long-lived assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired by the Company when its value in use or its net realizable value, whichever is greater, is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the greater of the value in use or the net realizable value. Value in use is determined by the expected cash flows from the assets discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Net realizable value is determined by the selling price of the assets less costs to sell.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(Amounts in thousands of Argentine Pesos, except as otherwise indicated)
3. Significant accounting policies (continued)

| n) Impairment of long-lived assets (continued)

Under Argentine GAAP, the impairment loss is recorded in the statement of income against a liability account. This liability account is a contra account to fixed assets, undeveloped parcels of land or inventories, which mean that it is presented on the balance sheet as a direct reduction from the book value of these assets to arrive at the carrying value at any particular point in time. The liability account is depreciated over the useful life of the related asset decreasing depreciation expense each period. Under Argentine GAAP, a previously recognized impairment loss should only be reversed when there is a subsequent change in estimates used to compute the value in use or its net realizable value, whichever is greater. In that event, the new carrying amount of the asset should be the lower of its value in use or its net realizable value, whichever is greater, or the net carrying amount the asset would have had if no impairment had been recognized. Both the impairment charge and the impairment reversal are recognized in earnings in the period in which they are incurred.

| o) Translation of non-peso currency amounts

Assets and liabilities of non-Argentine subsidiaries and associates that have a local functional currency are translated to Argentine Pesos at fiscal year-end exchange rates. Income and expense items are translated at weighted-average rates of exchange prevailing during the fiscal year. Translation adjustments are recorded in shareholders’ equity.
p) Vacation expenses
Vacation expenses are fully accrued in the fiscal year the employee renders services to earn such vacation.

| q) Derivative financial instruments

As part of its risk management strategy, the Company may use derivative financial instruments. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to certain risks, including foreign exchange risks. In entering into these contracts, the Company assumes the risk that might arise from the possible inability of counter parties to meet the terms of their contracts. The Company does not expect any losses as a result of counterparty defaults.
The Company follows Technical Resolution No. 18 “Derivative instruments and coverage operations” and carries these derivatives as assets or liabilities at fair market value on the balance sheet. RT No. 18 requires that changes in the derivative’s fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative’s gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged item in the statement of income, and requires that a company must formally document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting. While management believes each of the financial instruments manage various market risks, these instruments are not designated and accounted for as hedges as a result of the extensive record keeping requirements of the provisions. Accordingly, the Company’s derivatives are marked to market on a current basis with gains and losses recognized in earnings.
r) Other receivables and liabilities
Certain other receivables and liabilities (value added tax, cash reserves and guarantee deposits) have been measured based on the best estimate of the amount receivable and payable, respectively, discounted at the interest rate that reflect the time-value of money and the estimate specific transactions risks at the time of incorporation to assets and liabilities, respectively. The remaining other receivables and liabilities have been valued at their nominal value plus interest, if any.

Liabilities in kind are disclosed in the “Trade accounts payable”.

| t) Related party balances and other transactions

Receivables and payables with related parties generated by financial transactions and other sundry transactions have been valued in accordance with the terms agreed by the parties.
Customer advances represent payments received in advance in connection with the sale and lease of certain properties and have been valued at the amount collected.

u) | Mortgage payables

Mortgage payables includes the debt assumed in the acquisition of Llao Llao Resorts (LLR) (Note 13) and have been valued at the amount collected net of expenses plus accrued interests based on the interest rate estimated at the time of the transaction.

v) | Advertising expenses

The Company generally expenses advertising and promotion costs as incurred.
Advertising and promotion expenses were approximately Ps. 10,264 and Ps. 12,475 for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

| w) Monetary assets and liabilities

Monetary assets and liabilities are disclosed at their face value, plus the accrued interest.

| x) Debt issuance costs

Expenses incurred in connection with the issuance of debt are amortized over the term of the debt, applying effective interest method. Debt issuance costs are classified within short-term or long-term debts, as appropriate. In the case of redemption or conversion of these debts, the related expenses are amortized using the accelerated depreciation method. Amortizations of debt issuance costs are included within “Financial results, net” in the accompanying statements of income as a greater financing expense.

| y) Paid-in capital

Related Companies Law No. 19,550 Section 33: Increases or decreases of the equity value of investments in IRSA and Cactus generated on the basis of changes in their shareholders’ equity, arising from transactions of shareholders different from the Company and its subsidiaries, were included in this caption as established in captions 9 second part of Technical Resolution 17 of the FACPCE and Resolution CD No. 2 43/01 of the CPCECABA.

y) Paid-in capital (continued)
The “Long-Term Incentive Program Reserve” relates to contributions accrued, by the Company and its subsidiaries (at the participating interest) under the Long-Term Incentive Program.
The reimbursement of APSA accrued dividends has been recorded against retained earnings proportionally to the Company’s respective shareholding.

| z) Earnings per share

The Company is required to disclose earnings per share information for all periods presented. Basic earnings per share earnings per share (“basic EPS”) are computed by dividing the net income available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the fiscal year. Diluted earnings per share (“diluted EPS”) are computed by dividing the adjusted net income for the fiscal year by the weighted-average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding during the fiscal year.
In computing diluted EPS, income available to common shareholders used in the basic EPS calculation is adjusted to add back the after-tax amount of interest recognized in the fiscal year with respect to any debt convertible to common stock. Additional adjustments are made for any other income or loss items that would result from the assumed conversion of potential common shares. The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding is adjusted to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive potential common shares had been issued. Diluted EPS is based on the most advantageous conversion rate or exercise price over the entire term of the instrument from the standpoint of the security holder. The calculation of diluted EPS excludes potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
The Company has considered the dilutive effect of outstanding warrants and convertible debt in calculating diluted EPS.
aa) Dividends
Dividend policy of IRSA consist in the distribution of an amount up to the highest of a) twenty per cent (20%) of the Revenues of “Offices and other Non-Shopping Center Rental Properties” segment, defined in Segment Information (Note 10), as of June 30 of each fiscal year, or b) twenty per cent (20%) of Net income defined in the Consolidated Statements of Income as of June 30 of each fiscal year. This policy requires that IRSA must at all times comply with the covenants imposed by its financial obligations.
ab) Employee Benefits
• Agriculture business
Share-based payments award plan.
As further described in Note 17, BrasilAgro issued equity settled share-based payments to certain employees as part of their remuneration package. Equity settled awards are measured at fair value at the date of grant. The Company measured the fair value using the Black-Scholes method. For equity settled share-based payments, an expense is recognized in the statement of income to spread the fair value of the award over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. The Company recognizes the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in the statement of income, with a corresponding adjustment to equity.
ac) Financial leasings
The Company has recognized various Lease agreements such as finance leases; as a result, it has recorded leased property under fixed assets at the respective contractual values against bank and financial loans on the liability side of the balance sheet.

a) | Common stock (continued)

| (i) | During this fiscal year 2009, 2,935,641 ADR’s and 643,590 shares of common stock were repurchased. See Note 23.

In March 2008, the Company issued 180 million shares of common stock with a face value of Ps. 1 each entitled to one vote per share and, for each subscribed share, each shareholder received at no additional cost a warrant entitling the holder to purchase 0.33333333 new shares at a price of US$ 1.68 per each share to be acquired. Thus, the Company issued 180 million warrants entitling the holder to purchase a total of 60 million additional shares. Warrants mature May 22, 2015 and may be exercised between the 17th and the 22nd day of February, May, September and November of any year through 2015. Warrants are listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange under the symbol “CREW2”and on the Nasdaq under the symbol “CRESW”.

The terms that have been modified are the number of shares to be issued for warrants (current is 0.35100598) and the prices to call shares to be issued (current price after assignment US$ 1.5954).The rest of terms and conditions of warrants remain unchanged.
Proceeds from the issuance, net of issuance expenses, amount to Ps. 881.1 million, while the tax effect of issuance expenses amounted to Ps. 9.9 million. Proceeds were allocated to shares and warrants issued based on the fair market value estimated upon subscription. The portion of the proceeds allocated to warrants amounting to Ps. 115.2 million was recorded as additional paid-in capital.
As stated in the section “Allocation of funds” in the capital increase issuance prospectus, the funds brought into the Company were mainly used to organize companies and acquire plots of land for agricultural production in Bolivia and Paraguay, the purchase of shares of our subsidiaries IRSA and BrasilAgro, the acquisition of corporatebonds of our subsidiaries IRSA and APSA, the repurchase of proprietary shares which are treasury stock, the settlement of payables and working capital. It should be considered that the allocation of net funds obtained from the offer has been and may continue occasionally to be influenced by current market conditions and, consequently, in the section "Allocation of funds" in the capital increase issuance prospectus, we have reserved the right to reallocate the whole or a portion of such anticipated uses to other uses that we consider consistent with our strategy.
Funds obtained were assigned to shares and warrants issued based on the current value estimated upon subscription.
During fiscal year 2011, 5,776 options were exercised; consequently, 2,026 shares of common stock were issued for US$ 3,235.
During the fiscal year ended on June 30, 2012 no ordinary shares were issued as a consequence of the exercise of rights of options conversion. As of the closing date of this fiscal year, there are 177,640,138 uncalled options.
As of June 2012, there are 177,640,138 outstanding warrants.

| b) | Inflation adjustment of common sotck

As discussed in Note 2.d), the Company’s consolidated financial statements were prepared on the basis of general price-level accounting which reflects changes in the purchasing power of the Argentine peso in the historical financial statements until February 28, 2003. Accordingly, the inflation adjustment related to common stock and treasury was appropriated to an inflation adjustment reserve, which forms part of shareholders’ equity. According to Argentine rules and regulations, the balance of the inflation adjustment reserves may be applied only towards the issuance of common stock to shareholders of the Company.

c) Paid-in capital
The Company records changes of interests in equity investees and/or subsidiaries, resulting from capital nature transactions between the equity investees and/or subsidiaries and other shareholders, to paid-in capital within shareholders’ equity.

| d) Restrictions on distribution of profits (legal reserve)

In accordance with the Argentine Corporations Law and the Company’s by-laws, 5% of the net and realized profit for the fiscal year calculated in accordance with Argentine GAAP plus (less) prior year adjustments must be appropriated by resolution of shareholders to a legal reserve until such reserve equals 20% of the Company’s outstanding capital. This legal reserve may be used only to absorb losses.

| e) Reserve for new developments

Under Argentine law, companies are allowed to transfer portions of accumulated retained earnings to special reserves. These special reserves may be for general purposes or for specific uses such as new developments. The transfer of accumulated retained earnings to these special reserves is shown in the shareholder’s equity. These reclassifications have no impact on the total shareholders’ equity of the Company.

f) | Treasury stock

The acquisition cost of treasury stock has been debited from the account “Reserve for new developments” as provided by sec. 220, subsec. 2, Law No. 19,550.
Likewise, the “Common stock account” was debited for the face value of repurchased shares and the “Inflation adjustment of common stock account”, for the proportional portion of the adjustment for inflation related to the shares acquired. In turn, the accounts “Treasury stock” and “Inflation adjustment of treasury stock” were respectively credited (See Note 22).
6. Derivative financial instruments
The Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to commodity risks, foreign-exchange risks and interest rate risks. These financial instruments consist mainly of crop future contracts, put and call option contracts, foreign currency future contracts and swap operations. The counterparties to these instruments generally are major financial institutions. In entering into these contracts, the Company has assumed the risk that might arise from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The Company does not expect any losses as a result of counterparty defaults. As described in Note 3.q), derivative financial instruments are recognized at fair value as either assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. Changes in the fair market value of the derivative instruments are reported in earnings. Margin deposits and premiums paid related to outstanding future and option contracts are recorded as other receivables on the consolidated balance sheet.
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company had open commodity crop future contracts amounting to US$ 4.4 million and US$ 2.4 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, these contracts covered a notional amount 14,800 tons and 12,520 tons, respectively, of various crops, including soybean and corn.
Futures contracts are used in combination with put and call option contracts principally to take advantage of market fluctuations, which provide more favorable pricing opportunities. During the fiscal year-end June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company purchased several CBOT (Chicago Board of Trade) put and call options to partially hedge the Corn and Soybean exposures. During fiscal year 2012 and 2011 corn puts and calls were opened with a weighted average strike price of US$ 230 and US$ 232 per ton, covering notional amounts of 39,370 tons and 19,050 tons, respectively. Soybean puts and calls were opened with a weighted average strike price of US$ 477 per ton, covering notional amounts of 15,614 tons, during fiscal year 2012. The open options as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 mature at various dates through December 2012 and December 2011, respectively.

6. Derivative financial instruments (continued)
During fiscal year 2012, the Company through our subsidiary BrasilAgro, had commodities accumulator contracts outstanding to pay for Ps. 22.2 million. The accumulator is a future sale at a price agreed by contract that the sales volume (theoretical) depends on the price of the commodity observed daily during the life of the contract. The settlement of this contract is made in a single payment at maturity of the contract. The theoretical contract total is divided by the number of days of operation by establishing a theoretical daily volume. Daily determines whether the market price of the commodity reference that day is: (i) below the price in this case suspension and sales volume is zero, (ii) between suspension price and the price of contractually agreed sale and in this case the sales volume is the theoretical daily volume, or (iii) above the contractually agreed sale price in which case the sales volume is twice the daily theoretical volume.
The Company recorded gains and losses associated with these commodity–based contracts in “Unrealized gain (loss) on inventories” in the statement of income. Gains and losses were Ps. 50,078 (loss), Ps. 23,661 (loss) and Ps. 713 (loss) for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
During fiscal year 2012, the Company had arranged SWAP operations for a notional amount of Ps. 160.0 million structured as follows: (i) Ps. 30 million entered into with Standard Bank due on December 10, 2012 whereby the Company agrees to pay a fixed rate of 14% and the counterparty the Badlar variable rate; (ii) Ps. 20 million entered into with Standard Bank due on December 10, 2012 whereby the Company agrees to pay a fixed rate of 14.1% and the counterparty the Badlar variable rate; (iii) Ps. 30 million entered into with Banco Santander Río due on December 10, 2012 whereby the Company agrees to pay a fixed rate of 14.25% and the counterparty the Badlar variable rate; (iv) Ps. 26.6 million entered into with Banco Itaú due on December 10, 2012 whereby the Company agrees to pay a fixed rate of 18.30% and the counterparty the Badlar variable rate; (v) Ps. 20 million with Banco Itaú due on December 10, 2012, having agreed to collect a fixed rate of 19.5% and the counterparty the Badlar variable rate; (vi) Ps. 33.4 million with Standard Bank due on December 10, 2012, having agreed to collect a fixed rate of 19.45% and to pay a Badlar variable rate. During fiscal year 2011, the Company had arranged futures and options on the Futures Market and SWAP operations. for a notional amount of Ps. 106.9 million structured as follows: (i) Ps. 30 million entered into with Standard Bank due on December 10, 2012 whereby the Company agrees to pay a fixed rate of 14% and the counterparty the Badlar variable rate; (ii) Ps. 20 million entered into with Standard Bank due on December 10, 2012 whereby the Company agrees to pay a fixed rate of 14.1% and the counterparty the Badlar variable rate; (iii) Ps. 30 million entered into with Banco Santander Río due on December 10, 2012 whereby the Company agrees to pay a fixed rate of 14.25% and the counterparty the Badlar variable rate and (iv) Ps. 26.9 million entered into with Banco Itaú due on December 10, 2012 whereby the Company agrees to pay a fixed rate of 14.45% and the counterparty the Badlar variable rate.
The Company recorded gain and losses associated with theses SWAP operations in “Financial results, net"in the statements of income. Gain recognized were Ps. 1,837, Ps. 1,327 and nil for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
During fiscal year 2012, the Company through our subsidiary BrasilAgro, had foreign currency future contracts outstanding to pay US$35.4 million and to collect US$3.6 million maturing through June 2013.
The Company recorded gains and losses associated with these foreign exchange contracts in "Financial Results, net" in the statements of income. Gain and losses were Ps. 799 (loss), Ps. 1,522 (gain) and Ps. 5,412 (gain) for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Derivative financial instruments involve, to a varying degree, elements of market and credit risk. The market risk associated with these instruments resulting from price movements is expected to offset the market risk of the underlying transactions, assets and liabilities, being hedged. The counterparties to the agreements relating to the Company’s futures and options contracts consist of a number of major institutions with high credit ratings. The Company does not believe that there is a significant risk of nonperformance by these counterparties because the Company continually monitors the credit rating of such counterparties, and limits the financial exposure and the amounts of agreements entered into with any one financial institution. While the contract or notional amounts of derivative financial instruments provide one measure of the volume of these transactions, they do not represent the amount of the Company’s exposure to credit risk. The amounts potentially subject to credit risk are generally limited

9. Segment information
The Company is required to disclose segment information in accordance with RT 18. RT 18 establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires reporting of selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. Operating segments are components of a company about which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision maker(s) (CODM) in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The statement also establishes standards for related disclosures about a company’s products and services, geographical areas and major customers.
In December 2010, the Company made up a capital contribution to Cactus, increasing its shareholding interest to 80% and gained control over the entity. This entity is primarily involved in agro-industrial and industrial-related activities which require further processes to the cattle primary operations. Cactus owns a slaughter house which processes meat sourced from the Company's own cattle or other third parties as needed. Cattle is fed in Cactus's feedlots prior to being slaughtered and processed.
Upon gaining control of the entity and receiving consolidating information for Cactus, the CODM revised its internal reporting structure and made the following changes:
- The slaughtering and processing of meat and its associated feedlot operations are considered a separate business -although related- and is reviewed separately as such by the CODM. These activities are referred to in the reporting to the CODM as "Slaughtering and Feedlot business";
- The agricultural business of the Company now includes only farming activities or primary activities which do not have any industrial or industrial-related processes;
The "Agriculture business and the Slaughtering and Feedlot business" comprises the Company's Agribusiness activities; and,
- The Real Estate Business remained unchanged.

9. Segment information (continued)
Each of the Agriculture, Slaughtering and Feedlot, and Real Estate businesses comprises several reportable segments which are described in detail further below. These changes in the current internal reporting structure have been retroactively reflected in the segment information of prior years. However, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, the Slaughtering and Feedlot business does not include the consolidated accounts of Cactus because the Company did not have control of the entity for these period. Rather Cactus is reflected as an equity-method investee for these period and performance measured based on the gain or loss from the equity investee.
Following is a description of the reportable segments within the Agricultural Slaughtering/ Feed Lot and Real Estate businesses of the Company.

A. | Agriculture business:

The Company’s agricultural operations are conducted through six business segments organized primarily on a product-line basis, with each segment offering a variety of different but interrelated products. The Company’s agricultural operations are subject to various risks, including but not limited to market prices for commodities, weather conditions and environmental concerns. One of the cornerstones of the Company is the transformation of farmland through its agricultural activities. Ultimately the Company may sell farmland to profit from land value appreciation opportunities and which, in the judgment of management, are surplus to the Company’s primary operations. Gains on the sale of farmland properties are presented in “Sales of farmlands” in the consolidated statements of income.
For all years presented the Company’s principal operations were located in Argentina, the country of domicile. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, the Company’s international operations were concentrated in Brazil through its equity investment in BrasilAgro. As discussed above, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company continued its business in Brazil while it expanded its international operations to Bolivia and Paraguay.
The Company’s business segments within the Agriculture business are as follows:

· | The Crops Segment includes the planting and harvesting and sale of fine and coarse grains and oilseeds, including wheat, corn, soybeans and sunflowers;

· | The Beef Cattle Segment consists of the raising and fattening of beef cattle from the Company’s own cattle stock and the purchase and fattening of beef cattle for sale to meat processors;

· | The Milk Segment consists of the production of milk for sale to dairy companies;

· | Others Segment consists of services and leasing of the Company’s farms to third parties and brokerage activities.

· | Farmland Sales Segment consists of gains from the sale of farmland to profit from land value appreciation opportunities as part of the land transformation objectives of the Company;

· | Non-Operating Segment includes gains or losses from equity investees and depreciation for corporate assets.

The Company evaluates the performance of its Agriculture business segments based on gross income (loss) from agricultural production plus gross income from sales - including sales of products and farmland- less selling and administrative expenses plus unrealized gains or losses on inventories. The column titled “Sub-Total Agriculture business” represents the addition of the segment gains or losses from the Crops (Domestic and International, as applicable), Beef Cattle, Milk, Feedlot (as applicable), Others and Farmland Sales Segments. Excluded from total segment gains or losses are the gains or losses from the other equity investees of the Company included in the Non-Operating Segment.
Accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Intercompany transactions between segments, if any, are eliminated.

9. Segment information (continued)
B. Slaughtering and Feed lot business
The Company´s slaughtering and feed lot operations are conducted through its subsidiary Cactus. This segment’s main business is the production of meat under the so-called “feedlot fattening” method and slaughtering.
The feedlot cattle beef production is processed in Exportaciones Agroindustriales Argentina S.A.’s packing plant for the domestic and foreign markets. Feedlot fattening with a corn-based diet has been growing at a very dynamic pace. The company has gained market reputation thanks to the uniform final product offered by feedlot-finished animals, which provides purchasers with high-quality products and higher yields, succeeding in offering differential sales prices. Cactus continues to receive cattle from farmers that repeat their productive process whereby they breed and re-breed their animals in their own farms and finish them at Cactus.
The accounting policies of the segment are the same as those described in Note 3.
C. Real Estate Business
The Company’s real estate operations are conducted through its subsidiary IRSA. The real estate business is further segmented as follows:

· | Development and Sale of Properties: this segment includes the operating results of the Company’s construction and ultimate sale of residential buildings business.

· | Office and Other Non-Shopping Center Rental Properties: this segment includes the operating results of the Company's lease and service revenues of office space and other non-retail building properties from tenants.

· | Shopping Centers: this segment includes the operating results of the Company's shopping centers principally comprised of lease and service revenues from tenants.

· | Consumer Financing: this segment includes the origination of loans and credit card receivables and related securitization programs carried through Tarshop.

· | Hotel Operations: this segment includes the operating results of the Company's hotels principally comprised of room, catering and restaurant revenues.

· | Financial Operations and Others: this segment primarily includes revenues and associated costs generated from the sale of equity securities, other securities-related transactions and other non-core activities of the Company. This segment also includes the gains or losses on the equity investees of the Company.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 3.

10. Income tax (continued)
In assessing the recoverability of deferred income tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. Based on the current expiration period of tax loss carryforwards (5 years), the ultimate realization of the deferred income tax assets for income tax purposes is considered more likely than not.
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011 the Company and its subsidiaries had accumulated income tax loss carryforwards of approximately Ps. 889.8 million and Ps. 651.5 million, which, on an individual entity basis, may be offset against future years’ taxable income in accordance with income tax law. Such tax loss carryforwards expire at various dates through 2012 to 2017, except for our subsidiary Tyrus, which expires in 2040.

Exagrind S.A. has filed a lawsuit against Inversiones Ganaderas S.A. (IGSA) (merged with the Company) on claims for damages and losses produced by a fire in “San Rafael” farm, which is close to Tali Sumaj, Province of Catamarca. The fire took place on September 6, 2000.
The estimated amount of the legal action is Ps. 2,915 at the date the claim was filed.
In turn, the Company has filed an extraordinary appeal to the High Court of the Province of Catamarca was timely filed, requesting for a remainder term to answer the lawsuit as, at the time of revoking the first instance judge decision that postponed the terms to answer until a new notice was dispatched, such period had not yet expired. The Court ruling was favourable, which enabled us to reply to the claim timely and duly. Currently, the file is under the period allowed for producing evidence.
Additionally, in March 2007 -under the request of Exagrind S.A. - the court in charge of the case seized an inhibition of assets. This decision was lifted in June 2007 and a real estate on attachment has been accepted in replacement.
It should be noted that during fiscal year 2010, it was executed the title deed for the sale of such establishment and because as of the closing date of these financial statements the attachment-in-aid-of-execution had not been lifted, the Company assumed certain obligations and provided a surety insurance to guarantee its obligation on behalf of the purchaser.

2. | Ongoing litigation with the city of Villa Mercedes

A judge from the City of Villa Mercedes, Province of San Luis, issued an administrative resolution mandating Cactus to cease activities and relocate facilities within 36 months.

B. Real Estate Business
National Parks Administration dispute
LLao Llao Holdings S.A. ("LLH") (in liquidation process following the merger with and into the Company), predecessor of Llao Llao Resorts ("LLR"), as operator of the Llao Llao Hotel was sued in 1997 by the National Parks Administration ("NPA"), a governmental entity, seeking collection of US$ 2.9 million in Argentine External Debt Bonds ("EDB") relating to the unpaid balance of the additional sales price (related to the additional consideration for running the hotel called “Hotal Llao Llao”, for which LLH was awarded by the resolution No. 1/91 of the National Parks Administration). The Court of First Instance sustained the demand. IRSA appealed the sentence but it was rejected by the Court of Appeals which demanded the Company to pay NPA an amount of US$ 3.8 million including interest, penalties and attorney’s fees. The plaintiff requested the court of original jurisdiction to initiate an incidental procedure for execution of sentence by performing a settlement through the Ministry of Economy, the procedure having being questioned by the Company. In view of the fact that the information provided was not sufficient to evaluate the amount settled by the Ministry of Economy, it was requested that the execution be suspended until there is a sentence on the complaint recourse filed with the National Supreme Court for the denial of the extraordinary recourse soliciting that the debt be converted to pesos (“pesification”).
On July 14, 2008 the Court of Appeal notified LLR that by means of a resolution dated June 18, 2008 it had confirmed the settlement approved by the court of original jurisdiction.
On March 17, 2009, the National Supreme Court admitted the appeal against and decided to suspend the enforcement of the judgment in so far as the extraordinary appeal lodged by LLR is not resolved.
On February 23, 2010, the Supreme Court of Justice dismissed the action, which rendered the judgment final and compelled LLR to pay the amount calculated by the State. On April, 2010 LLR paid Ps. 13,122 in cash and bonds.
On June 10, 2010, LLR was notified of the newly-performed settlement: LLR filed an objection against it in due time and manner. On June 17, 2010, the court ordered that the plaintiff was to be served notice of the objection. As of June 30, 2010, LLR awaits notice of the most recently ordered service of process.
On August 6, 2010, the plaintiff filed a response to the most recent service of process. On September 10, 2010, the trial court judge resolved that the amount deposited by Llao Llao Resorts S.A. is not sufficient to cover the amount of the payment order. An appeal against this resolution was filed on behalf of Llao Llao Resorts S.A. alleging that there has been a material error incurred by the trial court.
In addition, on September 22, 2010, the judge calculated that the fees payable to the auctioneer who took part in the proceedings amount to Ps. 1.8 million. LLR lodged an appeal against the award for considering the amount excessively high. The auctioneer, in turn, lodged his appeal against the award for considering the amount excessively low. On November 26, 2010 the case was elevated to the Court of Appeals. On November 29, 2010 the proceedings were brought to a settlement stage between the parties. On February 3, 2011 the Court of Appeals granted the appeal filed by LLR as regards the restatement of interest in the amount of US$ 659. As a result, the judgment rendered by the trial court was reversed and LLR's debt was considered paid off as regards the settlement amount approved in the proceedings, with court costs being awarded to the plaintiff. Furthermore, the appeal remedy regarding fees awarded to the auctioneer, which were reduced from Ps. 1.8 million to Ps. 1.1 million. As of the date of these financial statements, such fees have been made available for collection.
Since LLR had a credit balance as regards the deposit made pursuant to settlement approved in the proceedings, on February 18, 2011 LLR filed a remedy for relief whereby it requested that the Court of Appeal issue a decision on the amount deposited in excess and order the eventual repayment to the defendant.
The Court of Appeal ruled that the claim should be treated by the Court of original jurisdiction. Hence, the file was returned to the original Court. There, the auctioneer requested payment of the fees, which were decreased to

Ps. 1.1 million plus VAT, after LLR’s appeal was favorable. LLR presented a proposal to pay the auctioneer’s fees settled, which will be withheld from the funds seized, from the freely disposable funds and from the funds invested in time deposits in dollars. Likewise, LLR requested professional fees to be settled and resolution of the pending clarifying remedy as to the amount deposited in excess.
In accordance with the information provided by the attorneys in respect of this lawsuit, the amount to be recorded by virtue of the Court sentence amounts to Ps. 1.1 million as of June 30, 2011, such amount being recorded in Other current liabilities – Payable to National Parks Administration. As of the date of the financial statements, such fees have been paid.
14. Restricted assets
A. Agriculture business
BrasilAgro has constituted a mortgage on 10,097 ha. of Farmland Cremaq, as payment guarantee of the loan agreement obtained in December 2009 from Banco do Nordeste – BNB and a deposit for Ps. 41,406 (equivalent to R$ 18,492) related to the funds obtained in June 2010 by the controlling party Jaborandi Ltda., paid to CDI.
B. Real Estate Business
a) In a series of transactions, which occurred between 1999 and 2000, the Company, through IRSA, acquired from an unrelated party, 50% of Puerto Retiro S.A., whose sole asset is an undeveloped parcel of land in Retiro, Buenos Aires. Prior to the acquisition by IRSA, Puerto Retiro had acquired land from Tandanor S.A. (“Tandanor”), a formerly state-owned entity, which had been acquired by Inversora Dársena Norte S.A. (“Indarsa”) in 1991 through a privatization process. The Argentine Government sustained Indarsa had not cancel the outstanding balance of the purchase price of Tandanor, and as a result petitioned the bankruptcy of Indarsa. Since the sole asset of Indarsa was its ownership interest in Tandanor, the Argentine Government was seeking to extend the bankruptcy procedures to any company or individual, which, according to its view, acted as a group, and therefore, in this process requested the bankruptcy of Puerto Retiro and other companies and individuals. In this connection, the bankruptcy court for the Buenos Aires District issued an order restraining the ability of Puerto Retiro to sell or dispose in any manner the land acquired from Tandanor. IRSA is vigorously defending against this case. The Management and legal advisors of Puerto Retiro S.A. estimate that there are legal and technical arguments sufficient to consider that the request for bankruptcy will be denied by the court. However, taking the particular circumstances into account and the progress of the legal action, this position cannot be considered final. IRSA’s investment in Puerto Retiro amounts to Ps. 54.27 million as of June 30, 2012.
b) The Company mortgaged the following properties under certain obligations:

Property |  | Net Book Value as of June 30, 2012 |
Edificio República |  |  | 210,852 |

Zetol Plot of land |  |  | 36,070 |
Predio San Martin |  |  | 69,791 |

c) As part of the securitization program a portion of the proceeds was retained by the trustee and maintained as a cash reserve to serve a collateral for the payment of amounts due of TDFs. Cash reserves flow back to Tarshop on a monthly basis according to a schedule until all TDFs are fully paid.
To guarantee the compliance with all the covenants assumed by Liveck S.A., and the minority shareholder of Zetol S.A. and Vista al Muelle S.A. pursuant to the stock purchase agreement of Vista al Muelle S.A.’s shares executed on June 11, 2009 and the Addendums to the Agreement as well as payment of any possible damages and associated expenses, the parties have reciprocally tendered a security interest consisting in a possessory pledge over the shares of Vista al Muelle S.A. and Zetol S.A.

e) Mortgage guaranteed loan Hoteles Argentinos S.A.
In March 2005, Credit Suisse First Boston (“CSFB”) acquired the debt for US$ 11.1 million of Hoteles Argentinos S.A. (“HASA”), subsidiary of IRSA, which had been in non-compliance since January 2002. In April 2006 HASA made a payment reducing the capital amount payable to US$ 6.0 million. The balance accrued interests at a LIBO rate six months plus 7.0%.
Jointly, IRSA subscripted a credit default swap for 80% of the restructured debt value in order to protect CSFB in case of non-compliance with HASA’s obligations. As compensation, IRSA will receive a payment of a coupon on a periodical basis. In addition, to support the obligations assumed, IRSA deposited as guarantee the amount of US$ 1.2 million.
With the last instalment of the loan received having been repaid on March 15, 2010, CSFB reimbursed the deposit to IRSA. Simultaneously, HASA borrowed a new loan from Standard Bank Argentina S.A. for a total amount of Ps. 19.0 million, which will accrue interest at a fixed rate, payable on a quarterly basis. The capital was due on March 2011. During the same month, HASA refinanced the mentioned loan agreement, as per the following detail: US$ 0.4 million, at a fixed rate (capital plus interest) to be paid on September 6, 2012; US$ 0.4 million, at a fixed rate (capital plus interest) to be paid on March 14, 2012 and Ps. 15.8 million, at a fixed rate with capital to be paid on March 14, 2012 and interests payable on a quarterly basis.
On March 14, 2012, HASA refinanced the loan with Standard Bank Argentina S.A. for Ps. 15.8 million through a bank checking account overdraft agreement with such entity. This agreement provides for a fixed interest rate and a monthly renewal of the agreement term.
The loan for US$ 0.4 million held with such entity was repaid on the same date.
As a guarantee for this transaction, IRSA entered into a put option agreement (put right) with Standard Bank Argentina S.A. whereby the Bank receives the right to sell to IRSA, which in turn agrees to purchase, 80% of the credit rights arising from the loan in the event of HASA defaulted the loan.
As of the date of these financial statements, HASA had committed no event of default.

On October 11, 2011 Banco Hipotecario released 50% of the pledged Non-Convertible Notes and the remaining 50% will be released after two years as from the date appearing on the Memorandum of closure has been fulfilled.
i) On August 3, 2011, a mortgage was constituted on Soleil Factory.

29. Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)
The National Securities Commission, (“CNV”, as per its Spanish acronym), through General Resolutions No. 562/9 and 576/10, has provided for the application of Technical Resolutions No. 26 and 29 of theArgentine Federation of Professional Councils of Economic Sciences (“F.A.C.P.C.E.”, as per its Spanish acronym), which adopt the IFRS, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), for companies subject to the public offering regime ruled by Law 17,811, due to the listing of their shares or corporate notes, and for entities that have applied for authorization to be listed under the mentioned regime.
Therefore, the Company is required to adopt IFRS as published by the IASB as from the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2012, being the financial statements as of September 30, 2012 and for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the first interim financial statements prepared under IFRS as published by the IASB. The Company’s transition date for the adoption of IFRS as established in IFRS 1 “First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards” is July 1, 2011.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in Argentina, as set forth by the FACPCE and as implemented, adapted, amended, revised and/or supplemented by the Consejo Profesional de Ciencias Económicas de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (“CPCECABA”) (collectively “Argentine GAAP”), and in accordance with the regulations of the CNV; which differ from IFRS as to measurement and presentation.
The items and/or amounts in the reconciliations included below are subject to change and should only be deemed final when the consolidated financial statements prepared under IFRS for the first time as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 are issued.
IFRS 1 allows entities adopting IFRS for the first time to consider certain one-time optional exemptions. Additionally, IFRS 1 requires the application of certain mandatory exceptions. These exemptions have been foreseen by the IASB to simplify the first-time application of certain IFRS, relieving the obligation of retrospective application of the standards.
Following is a summary of the exemptions and exceptions included in IFRS 1 applicable to the Company in the transition from Argentine GAAP to IFRS.

29. Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (continued)

1. | Optional exemptions of IFRS

Below is a detail of the applicable optional exemptions applicable to the company under IFRS:
1.1. Exemption for business combinations:
IFRS 1 provides the option to apply IFRS 3 “Business combinations” prospectively from the transition date or from a specific date prior to the transition date. This provides relief from full retrospective application that would require restatement of all business combinations prior to the transition date. The Company elected to apply IFRS 3 prospectively to business combinations occurring after its transition date. Business combinations occurring prior to the transition date have not been restated.
The business combination exemption applies equally to acquisitions of investments in associates or joint ventures. The Company elected not to restate the acquisitions of investments in associates or joint ventures prior to transition date.
1.2. Exemption for deemed cost
IFRS 1 allows previous GAAP revaluations to be used as deemed cost under IFRS if those valuations were, at the time of the valuation, equivalent to fair value or depreciated cost adjusted to reflect changes in a price index. The Company elected to measure certain items of property, plant and equipment and investment property at price-adjusted values as of July 1, 2011.
In addition, IFRS 1 allows the carrying values of the assets and liabilities immediately following a business combination to be deemed cost for any cost-based measurement going forward from the date of the combination. The Company adopted a cost-based policy for all of its assets. As such, the Company used the previous fair values recognized in past business combinations (not restated as per the business combination exemption above) for certain items of investment property and property, plant and equipment (primarily shopping centers, office buildings and hotel buildings) as deemed cost at the date of transition. All depreciation methods were already in compliance with those required by IAS 16 “Property, plant and equipment”.
1.3. Exemption for cumulative translation differences
IFRS 1 permits cumulative translation gains and losses to be reset to zero at the transition date. This provides relief from determining cumulative currency translation differences in accordance with IAS 21 “The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”, from the date a subsidiary or equity method investee was formed or acquired. The Company elected to reset all cumulative translation gains and losses to zero in opening retained earnings at its transition date.
1.4. Exemption for compound financial instruments
IFRS 1 establishes that if the liability component of a financial instrument is no longer outstanding at the date of transition to IFRS, first-time adopters do not have to separate it from the equity component. The Company elected not to restate convertible debt instruments no longer outstanding at the date of transition.
1.5. Exemption for borrowing costs
IFRS 1 has been amended to permit first-time adopters not to restate borrowing costs capitalized at transition date under previous GAAP. The Company elected to apply the provisions of IAS 23 “Borrowing costs” prospectively from the date of transition.
1.6. Exemption for assets and liabilities of subsidiaries

In accordance with IFRS 1, if a parent company adopts IFRS later than to its subsidiary, associate or joint venture, the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, associate or joint venture shall be measured in the consolidated financial statements at the same carrying amounts as in the financial statements of the subsidiary, associate or joint venture,

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(Amounts in thousands of Argentine Pesos, except as otherwise indicated)
29. Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (continued)
adjusted to reflect changes in the Company’s accounting policy when consolidating, if applicable. The Company’s associate, Tarshop S.A., adopted IFRS in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. The Company’s joint venture, Cresca S.A., adopted IFRS for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.
1.7. Exemption for share-based payments
IFRS 2 “Share Based Payments” applies to situations where an entity grants shares or share options to employees or to other parties providing goods and services and requires these payments to be recognized as an expense in the entity’s financial statements. A first time adopter is encouraged to apply IFRS 2 retrospectively. However, an entity may elect not to retrospectively apply IFRS 2 to equity instruments (equity settled transactions) granted on or before November 7, 2002. Similarly, while IFRS 1 encourages a first time adopter to apply IFRS 2 to equity instruments that were granted after November 7, 2002 and that vested before the later of (i) the date of transition and (ii) January 1, 2005, an entity may elect not to retrospectively apply IFRS 2 to these equity instruments. However, a first time adopter can only elect to retrospectively apply IFRS 2 to such equity instruments if it had previously disclosed publicly the fair value of those equity instruments, determined at the measurement date.
Based on this exemption, the Company did not apply IFRS 2 to equity instruments granted after November 7, 2002 and vested prior to transition date, i.e. July 1, 2011, as the fair value of those equity instruments had not been publicly disclosed.
The Company has not made use of the other optional exemptions available related in IFRS 1.
2. IFRS mandatory exceptions
The mandatory exceptions to IFRS 1 applicable to the Company are detailed bellow:
2.1. Exception for estimates
The estimates made by the Company under IFRS are consistent with the estimates made at the same date under with Argentine GAAP. Therefore, the estimates made by the Company under previous GAAP have not been revised for application of IFRS except where necessary to reflect any difference in accounting policies.
2.2. Exception for non-controlling interests
IFRS 1 establishes that an entity must apply the requirements in IFRS 10 “Consolidated financial statements” for accounting for changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control prospectively. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company accounted for acquisitions of non-controlling interests that did not result in change of control as business combinations. Furthermore, under Argentine GAAP, the Company accounted for disposals of non-controlling interests based on its carrying value at the date of disposal, recognizing any difference between the carrying value of the non-controlling interest and the consideration received in the statement of income. The Company did not restate these acquisitions and/or disposals prior to transition date.
IFRS 1 establishes that an entity must apply the requirements in IFRS 10 for accounting for a loss of control over a subsidiary prospectively. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company recognized any non-controlling equity investment retained under the equity method at the date control was lost.
The other compulsory exceptions of IFRS 1 have not been applied, as these are not relevant to the Company.
3. Mandatory reconciliations
In accordance with the requirements of Technical Resolution No. 26 (as subsequently amended by Technical Resolution No. 29), set out below are the reconciliations of shareholders’ equity as of June 30, 2012 and July 1, 2011, and the reconciliations of net income, other comprehensive income and cash flows for the fiscal year ended

3.4. Reconciliation of cash flows for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012
Based on IAS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows” requirements, the Company has made various reclassifications between operating, investing and financing activities in the cash flow statements presented under Argentine GAAP and the cash flows statements under IFRS as further detailed below:
3.4.1. Operating activities

Cash generated from operating activities under Argentine GAAP |  |  | 857,038 |
Proceeds from sale of property, plant and equipment |  |  | (146,706 | )
Deconsolidation of joint ventures |  |  | (21,554 | )
Cash generated from operating activities under IFRS (1) |  |  | 688,778 |

(1) | It includes the effect of the exchange rate variations in cash and cash equivalents.

3.4.2. Investing activities

Cash used in investing activities under Argentine GAAP |  |  | (728,777 | )
Acquisition of non-controlling interest in subsidiaries |  |  | 202,449 |
Proceeds from sale of property, plant and equipment |  |  | 146,706 |
Deconsolidation of joint ventures |  |  | 1,027 |
Cash used in investing activities under IFRS |  |  | (378,595 | )

3.4.3. Financing activities

Cash used in financing activities under Argentine GAAP |  |  | (283,974 | )
Acquisition of non-controlling interest in subsidiaries |  |  | (202,449 | )
Deconsolidation of joint ventures |  |  | 7,482 |
Cash used in financing activities under IFRS |  |  | (478,941 | )

3.4.4. Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents

Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents under Argentine GAAP |  |  | (155,713 | )
Deconsolidation of joint ventures |  |  | (13,045 | )
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents under IFRS |  |  | (168,758 | )

3.4.5. Disclosure reclassifications that affect the statement of cash flows for the fiscal year ended on June 30, 2012
Pursuant to Argentine GAAPs, the Company proportionally consolidated the joint ventures’ accounts. Consequently, there were some differences between the amount of cash and cash equivalents reported in the main statement of cash flows and the amount of cash and cash equivalents that would be reported in the statement of cash flows prepared under IFRS.
Additionally, pursuant to Argentine GAAPs, revenue derived from the sale of property, plant and equipment (including properties classified as investment property under IFRS) was reported as operating activities. In accordance with IFRS, revenue derived from the sale of investment property and property, plant and equipment is reported as investment activities.
Finally, according to Argentine GAAPs, the acquisition of non-controlling interests was reported as investment activities, while under IFRS this transaction would have been classified as financing activities.

Thus, cash flows generated by or used in operating, investment and financing activities were different in the statement of cash flow prepared.
4. Explanation of the transition to IFRS
(a) Revenue recognition – “scheduled rent increases”
Argentine GAAP – Revenue from “non-cancelable” leases subject to scheduled rent escalation clauses is recognized when the escalated payments are due. Therefore, revenue does not include an averaging of rental income. Rent-free periods, reduced rent or other tenant incentives, if any, are recognized in the period in which these incentives are provided.
IFRS – The Company applied IAS 17 “Leases”. As a result, lease income from operating leases with scheduled rent increases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases. All tenant incentives, if any, are treated as a reduction of rental income on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
As a consequence, the Company recognized a receivable for rent averaging of Ps. 52.0 million and Ps. 78.5 million as of July 1, 2011 and as of June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 52.0 million was recognized against retained earnings and an amount of Ps. 26.5 million gain was recognized in the statement of income.
(b) Revenue recognition – “letting fees”
Argentine GAAP – The Company does not generally use the services of a third-party lease agent for its shopping center properties. Rather, the Company acts as its own leasing agent and earns letting fees. Letting fees are recognized at the time a transaction is successfully completed. A transaction is considered successfully completed when both parties (the tenant and the Company) have signed the related lease contract.
IFRS – The Company considers that in these circumstances payments received from tenants for “letting fees” are not different from other payments received such as admission rights. Accordingly, revenue from letting fees is recognized under the straight-line method over the lease term.
As a result, payments received from tenants for “letting fees” of Ps. 35.5 million and Ps. 44.4 million were deferred as of July 1, 2011 and as of June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 35.5 million was recognized against retained earnings and an amount of Ps. 9.0 million loss was recognized in the statement of income.
(c) Biological assets and agriculture produce at the point of harvest
Argentine GAAP – Technical Resolution No. 22 “Agriculture activities” establishes a hierarchy for the valuation of biological assets. The Company has several classes of biological assets.
Biological assets in the form of unharvested crops are measured at replacement cost less any impairment losses. Biological assets in the form of livestock held for sale or for meat production are measured at net realizable value. Biological assets in the form of breeding or dairy cattle are measured at replacement cost. Tree plantations are measured at cost. Argentine GAAP does not prescribe a separate measurement for agriculture produce at the point of harvest.
IFRS – The Company applied IAS 41 “Agriculture”. Under IAS 41, biological assets and agriculture produce at the point of harvest are measured at fair value less costs to sell on initial recognition and at each statement of financial position date, except where fair value cannot be reliably measured. Cost approximates fair value when little or no biological transformation has taken place since the costs were originally incurred or the impact of biological transformation on price is not expected to be material. Changes in fair value less cost to sell are charged to income as incurred.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(Amounts in thousands of Argentine Pesos, except as otherwise indicated)
29. Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (continued)
As a result, the Company adjusted all of its biological assets on the statement of financial position at fair value less costs to sell for an amount of Ps. 58.7 million and Ps. 38.5 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized an amount of Ps. 17.0 million loss in the statement of income, an amount of Ps. 3.2 million in the statement of other comprehensive income, and the remaining amount of Ps. 58.7 million against retained earnings.
(d) Inventories
Argentine GAAP – Inventories, primarily agricultural supplies, are valued at replacement cost. Changes in replacement cost are charged to income as incurred. Additionally, harvested crops for the Company’s operations in Bolivia are measured at net realizable value, with changes being recognized in the statement of income.
IFRS - Consumable supplies are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of consumable supplies is determined using the weighted average method. The cost of hotel inventories is determined using the first-in first-out method. Additionally, harvested crops for the Company’s operations in Bolivia are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value because there is not an active market for the produce in this country.
As a result, the Company reduced inventories by Ps. 6.7 million and Ps. 5.4 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized a gain for an amount of Ps. 1.4 million in the statement of income and an amount of Ps. 6.7 million against retained earnings.
(e) Trading properties
Argentine GAAP – Trading properties are stated at the lower of cost adjusted for inflation or net realizable value. Additionally, trading properties are measured at net realizable value when contracts are exchanged for which a non-refundable deposit has been received securing the sale in advance of legal completion (i.e. transfer of deed of title and significant risk and rewards). This form of sale fixes the price of the property and the terms and conditions of the contract providing reasonable certainty about the closing of the transaction and realization of the gain. Accordingly, these transactions are deemed consummated for Argentine GAAP purposes and revenue is recognized at the time the contract is signed.
IFRS – Trading properties are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Revenue from the sale of properties is recognized only when the significant risks and rewards have transferred to the buyer. This will normally take place on unconditional exchange of contracts. For conditional exchanges, sales are recognized when these conditions are satisfied.
As a result, the Company eliminated the effect of inflation adjustment on trading properties for an amount of Ps. 12.9 million and Ps. 9.4 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 12.9 million was recognized against retained earnings and an amount of Ps. 3.5 million gain was recognized in the statement of income.
On the other hand, the Company adjusted the revaluation of trading properties due to property contracts exchanged prior fiscal year-end and for which title had not been transferred as of that date, for an amount of Ps. 16.4 million and Ps. 9.5 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized a gain for an amount of Ps. 6.9 million in the statement of income and the remaining amount of Ps. 16.4 million against retained earnings.
(f) Pre-operating and organization expenses
Argentine GAAP – Under Argentine GAAP, pre-operating, organization expenses and other start-up costs (mainly related to the opening of new shopping centers) are capitalized and amortized under the straight-line method generally over a period of three to five years.
F - 95
Cresud Sociedad Anónima Comercial, Inmobiliaria,
Financiera y Agropecuaria and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(Amounts in thousands of Argentine Pesos, except as otherwise indicated)
29. Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (continued)
IFRS – IFRS prescribes that pre-operating expenses cannot be attributed to the cost of property, plant and equipment, investment properties, trading properties or the formation of intangible assets and are immediately recognized as expenses.
As a result, the balances of pre-operating, organization expenses and other start-up costs capitalized under Argentine GAAP were derecognized under IFRS for an amount of Ps. 22.8 million and Ps. 22.7 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized a gain for an amount of Ps. 0.1 million in the statement of income and the remaining amount of Ps. 22.8 million against retained earnings.
(g) Goodwill
Argentine GAAP – The Company accounted for acquisitions of businesses and non-controlling interests under the acquisition method of accounting. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the Company allocated the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on the respective fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of cost over the fair value of net identifiable assets and is amortized under the straight-line method over the weighted average useful life of the tangible assets acquired. Goodwill does not exceed its respective estimated recoverable value at fiscal year-end.
IFRS – As noted in Note 29.1.1, the Company has applied the exemption in IFRS 1 for business combinations. Also, as noted in 29.2.2, the Company has applied the exception in IFRS 1 for acquisitions of non-controlling interests.
Consequently, business combinations and acquisitions of non-controlling interests completed prior to July 1, 2011 have not been restated and the carrying amount of goodwill under IFRS as of July 1, 2011 is equal to the carrying amount under Argentine GAAP as of that date totaling Ps. 29.1 million. There were no previously recognized intangible assets under Argentine GAAP that did not qualify for separate recognition under IFRS.
In accordance with IFRS, goodwill is not amortized; it is, instead, tested for impairment annually. Goodwill has been tested at transition date and no impairment has been recognized. The amortization charge has been adjusted in the statement of income under Argentine GAAP and in the statement of comprensive income.
Negative goodwill
Argentine GAAP – Under Argentine GAAP, when the amount paid in a business combination or acquisition of a non-controlling interest was lower than the carrying amount of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities, the Company recognized such amount as negative goodwill on the statement of financial position (as a deduction to non-current assets) and amortized it over the period considered to justify negative goodwill not exceeding 20 years. However, under Argentine GAAP, when negative goodwill exists, acquired intangible assets which otherwise would be recognized are reduced to absorb the negative goodwill even if they are then assigned a zero value.
Additionally, where the amount paid for the acquisition of associates and/or joint ventures is lower to the investor's share in the net fair values of the associate and/or joint venture's identifiable assets and liabilities, the Company recognized such amount as negative goodwill on the statement of financial position and amortized it over the period considered to justify negative goodwill not exceeding 20 years.
IFRS – As noted in Note 29.1.1, the Company has applied the exemption in IFRS 1 for business combinations. Also as noted in Note 29.2.2, the Company has applied the exception in IFRS 1 for acquisitions of non-controlling interests. Consequently, business combinations and acquisitions of non-controlling interests completed prior to July 1, 2011 have not been restated and the carrying amount of negative goodwill under IFRS on July 1, 2011 is equal to the carrying amount under Argentine GAAP as of that date. In accordance with IFRS, negative goodwill is recognized in profit or loss immediately.

Financiera y Agropecuaria and Subsidiaries
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
(Amounts in thousands of Argentine Pesos, except as otherwise indicated)
29. Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (continued)
Additionally, acquisitions of associates and/or joint ventures are initially recorded at cost of the investment. Any difference between the cost of the investment and the investor’s share in the net fair values of the associate’s and/ or joint venture’s identifiable assets and liabilities is goodwill. Negative goodwill is taken to the statement of income in the period when the associate and/or joint venture is acquired.
As a result, the balances of negative goodwill recognized in the statement of financial position under Argentine GAAP were derecognized under IFRS. As a result, the Company adjusted the value of such goodwill for an amount of Ps. 770.8 million and Ps. 709.04 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized a loss for an amount of Ps. 60.4 million in the statement of income (arising from the reversal of the amortization charge of negative goodwill recognized under Argentine GAAP) and the remaining amount of Ps. 770.8 million against retained earnings.
(h) Non-current investments – financial assets
Argentine GAAP – The Company holds investments in liested shares with readily determinable fair values, namely TGLT S.A. and Hersha Hospitality Trust. Under Argentine GAAP, these investments were carried at acquisition cost since they are not held for the purpose of trading in the short term.
IFRS – Under IFRS 9 “Financial instruments”, all equity investments are measured at fair value. For certain equity investments, the Company can make an irrevocable election at initial recognition to recognize changes in fair value through other comprehensive income rather than profit or loss. However, the Company has not elected to recognize changes in fair value of any equity instrument through other comprehensive income. Therefore, changes in fair value of all equity instruments held by the Company are recognized in the statement of income.
As a result, the Company adjusted the value of these equity securities to fair value by Ps. 151.4 million and Ps. 138.2 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 151.4 million was recognized against retained earnings and an amount of Ps. 13.2 million loss was recognized in the statement of income.
(i) Initial direct costs on operating leases
Argentine GAAP– Under Argentine GAAP, certain initial direct costs (i.e. legal, commissions and other fees) paid to third parties for arranging a lease (when the Company is a lessor) are recognized as an immediate expense when incurred.
IFRS – Initial direct costs incurred by lessors in arranging an operating lease are added to the carrying amount of the leased assets (i.e. investment properties) and are recognized as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as the lease income.
As a result, Ps. 0.7 million and Ps. 0.9 million, as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively, were added to “Investment properties”. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 0.7 million was recognized against retained earnings and Ps. 0.2 million gain were recognized in the statement of income.
(j) Tenant deposits
Argentine GAAP – The Company obtains deposits from tenants as a guarantee for returning the property at the end of the lease term in a specified good condition or for the lease payments for a period of generally three years. The deposits generally amount to one month of lease rentals. These deposits are treated as liabilities under Argentine GAAP and measured at the amount received by the tenants.
IFRS - Tenant deposits are treated as both a financial asset and a financial liability in accordance with IFRS 9, and they are initially recognized at fair value. The difference between fair value and cash received is

29. Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (continued)
considered to be part of the minimum lease payments received for the operating lease. The deposits are subsequently measured at amortized cost and deferred income is amortized on a straight-line basis over the contact term.
As a result, the Company adjusted the financial liability from tenant deposits for an amount of Ps. 0.1 million and Ps. 0.3 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized a gain of Ps. 0.2 million in the statement of income and the remaining amount of Ps. 0.1 million against retained earnings.
(k) Commodity linked debt
Argentine GAAP – Under Argentine GAAP, there is no requirement to separate embedded derivatives from host contracts and account for them as derivatives. Borrowings are valued based on the best estimate of the discounted value of the amounts expected to be paid, using the interest rate effective at the time of the initial measurement.
IFRS – IFRS 9 requires that an embedded derivative should be separated from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative if certain conditions are met. On September 7, 2011, the Company issued Class VII non-convertible notes which are denominated in US$ for a nominal amount of US$ 2.1 million. Class VII notes accrue interest at a floor rate of 4% plus a premium factor equivalent to 40% of the increase in the price of soy during the period from March 2011 to March 2013. Under IFRS, the commodity-indexed feature is an embedded derivative that is not clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument because the risks inherent in the derivative (price of soy) and the host are dissimilar. Therefore, the Company separated the commodity-indexed feature and classified it as a derivative liability. The Company measured the carrying value of the debt host contract at initial recognition as the difference between the consideration received and the fair value of the embedded derivative. Subsequently, the Company measured the host foreign-currency debt at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method and then retranslated it at each reporting date using the closing US$/Peso exchange rate. The Company recognized changes in the fair value of the embedded derivative in profit or loss for the period.
As a result, the Company adjusted borrowings for an amount of Ps. 0.1 million and Ps. 0.07 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 0.1 million was recognized against retained earnings and an amount of Ps. 0.3 million loss was recognized in the statement of income.
(l) Impairment of financial assets
Argentine GAAP- As of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, the Company maintains a balance related to credit card loans. These loan receivables are carried at amortized cost. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company determined an allowance for loan losses based on specific criteria set forth for financial and banking institutions.
IFRS – The Company applied the impairment provisions in IFRS 9.
As a result, the Company recognized an impairment loss of Ps. 2.1 million and Ps. 0.5 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 2.1 million was recognized against retained earnings and an amount of Ps. 1.6 million gain was recognized in the statement of income.
(m) Present value accounting – tax credits
Argentine GAAP – Under Argentine GAAP, certain long-term tax credits are present-valued as of fiscal year-end.
IFRS – Under IFRS, there is no requirement to discount long-term tax credits. The Company elects to measure tax receivables and payables at the amounts expected to be recovered from or paid to the tax authorities and thus, not discounting long-term tax credits.

29. Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (continued)
As a result, the Company eliminated the effect of discounting tax credits for an amount of Ps. 14.6 million and Ps. 10.9 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 14.6 million was recognized against retained earnings and an amount of Ps. 3.7 million loss was recognized in the statement of income.
(n) Impact of IFRS adjustments on investment in associates
Argentine GAAP- Investments in entities in which the Company exercises significant influence, but not control, are accounted for under the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is recorded at original cost and periodically increased (decreased) by the investor's proportionate share of earnings (losses) of the investee and decreased by all dividends received from the investor by the investee. The Company applied its percentage ownership interest to the financial statements of its equity method investments prepared under Argentine GAAP.
As of June 30, 2012, the associates of the Company are Banco Hipotecario S.A., Banco de Crédito & Securitización S.A., Manibil S.A., New Lipstick LLC, Lipstick Management LLC, Rigby 183 LLC, Tarshop S.A., AgroUranga S.A., Agro Managers S.A. and Bitania 26 S.A.
IFRS – The Company assessed all of its interests in the entities mentioned in the paragraph above and determined that the Company exercises significant influence over them. Accordingly, under IFRS, the Company also accounts for these investments under the equity method of accounting. However, the Company has assessed the impact of IFRS adjustments on the financial statements of these investments prepared under Argentine GAAP prior to the application of the equity method.
Following is a description of the most significant IFRS adjustments to the net equity and income of associates. For ease of presentation and to facilitate an understanding of the nature of the IFRS adjustments, associates were grouped by business activities. Associates are not discussed below when IFRS adjustments were not significant to the Company or no IFRS adjustments were identified:
Banking:
The Company assessed the financial statements of the associates related to the banking business and determined the following adjustments to IFRS as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012:
Under Argentine GAAP, revenues from life and disability insurance and loan origination fees are recognized on an up-front basis. Under IFRS, these revenues are recognized on a straight line basis over the term of the respective underlying receivables.
Under Argentine GAAP, the allowance for loan losses are recognized based on specific criteria as set forth by the Central Bank for financial and banking institutions. Under IFRS, the associate applied the impairment provisions in IFRS 9.
Under Argentine GAAP, receivables transferred to trusts in securitization programs are treated as sales and a gain or loss is recognized on the sale. Usually the transferor retains an interest in the trust and maintains a cash reserve which serves as collateral for payments of amounts due under the debt securities issued by the trust. Under IFRS, following the provisions of IFRS 9, the associate is not able to derecognize financial assets with these characteristics. As a result, the associate continues recognizing the receivables and a liability for the consideration received upon transfer. The receivables recognized are then tested for impairment following the IFRS 9 criteria.
Under Argentine GAAP, the calculation of the insurance technical reserves is recognized following the regulations issued by the National Insurance Superintendence. Under IFRS, following the guidance of IFRS 4 “Insurance contracts”, the associate measured the insurance technical reserve in accordance with the “best estimation” approach.

Investment properties:
The Company assessed the financial statements of the associates related to the investment property business and determined the following adjustments to IFRS as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012:
Under Argentine GAAP, revenue from non-cancelable leases subject to scheduled rent escalation clauses is recognized when the escalated payments are due. Therefore, revenue does not include an averaging of rental income. Rent-free periods, reduced rent or other tenant incentives, if any, are recognized in the period in which these incentives are provided. Under IFRS, lease income from operating leases with scheduled rent increases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases. All tenant incentives, if any, are treated as a reduction of rental income on a straight-line basis over the lease terms.
Under Argentine GAAP, lease expense where the entity is the lessee under an operating ground lease agreement subject to escalation clauses is recognized when the escalated payments are due. Therefore, lease expense is not straight-lined. Under IFRS, lease payments for operating leases with scheduled rent increases are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the leases.
As a result, the net equity of these associates was reduced by Ps. 56.2 million and Ps. 151.9 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 56.2 million was recognized against retained earnings, an amount of Ps. 89.6 million loss was recognized in the statement of income, and an amount of Ps. 6.1 million was in the statement of others comprehensive income.

(o) | Impact of IFRS adjustments on investment in joint ventures

Argentine GAAP– Investments in entities in which the Company exercises joint control are accounted for under the proportionate consolidation method. Under the proportionate consolidation method, the financial statements of the Company reflect the Company’s pro-rata equity interest in the jointly controlled entities on a line-by-line basis. The Company applied its pro-rata equity interest to the financial statements of its jointly-controlled entities prepared under Argentine GAAP.
IFRS – The Company assessed all of its interests in joint arrangements and determined that they are joint ventures under IFRS 11 “Joint arrangements”. Accordingly, the Company accounted for its joint ventures under the equity method of accounting. The Company has assessed the impact of IFRS adjustments on the financial statements of joint ventures prepared under Argentine GAAP prior to the application of the equity method.
As of June 30, 2012, the joint ventures of the Company are Cyrsa S.A., Cresca S.A., Canteras Natal Crespo S.A., Puerto Retiro S.A., Baicom Networks S.A., Quality Invest S.A. and Nuevo Puerto Santa Fe S.A.
Following is a description of the most significant IFRS adjustments to the net equity and income of the joint ventures. For ease of presentation and to facilitate an understanding of the nature of the IFRS adjustments, joint ventures were grouped by business activity. Joint ventures are not discussed below when IFRS adjustments were not significant to the Company or no adjustments were identified.
Under Argentine GAAP, the joint venture has historically accounted for revenues and therefore profits from all property sales on a percentage of completion basis once contracts for the sale of a property have been exchanged and only if the eventual profit from that property can be foreseen with reasonable certainty. Under IFRS, the joint venture has applied IFRIC 15 “Agreements for the Construction of Real Estate”. The Company assessed the contractual terms of the agreements and concluded that revenue from open market sales of real estate should be accounted for on legal completion of the properties in accordance with IAS 18 “Revenue”. As a result, the joint venture recognizes revenue from the sale of private homes and commercial units entirely at the point of legal completion in accordance with IAS 18. The most significant impact of IFRIC 15 is therefore the deferral of profits previously recognized from the point of exchange of contracts onwards until the point of legal completion. All of these profits are now recognized at a later date.

29. Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (continued)
As a result, the net equity of the Company’s joint ventures was decreased by Ps. 16.5 million and Ps. 11.3 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 16.5 million was recognized against retained earnings, an amount of Ps. 5.2 million gain was recognized in the statement of income.
(p) Acquisition of non-controlling interest
Aas noted in Note 29.2.2, the Company has applied the exemption in IFRS 1 for accounting for changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control. Consequently, acquisitions of non-controlling interests concluded prior to July 1, 2011 have not been restated.
The IFRS adjustments below relate to acquisitions of non-controlling interest occurring on or after July 1, 2011.
Argentine GAAP – Under Argentine GAAP, the Company accounted the acquisition of the non-controlling interests under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price paid is allocated to the net assets acquired based on its fair value. Assets, including goodwill, and liabilities of the acquired business are recognized using a cost accumulation approach (i.e. for the previous equity interests acquired). These acquisitions generated goodwill since the cost of acquisition exceeded the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. Additionally, goodwill generated by the acquisition of the non-controlling interest in Cactus Argentina S.A. (see Note 13.2.b.) was impaired and recognized as an expense in the statement of income under Argentine GAAP.
IFRS – Under IFRS, the Company applied the principles of IFRS 10 in accounting for changes in ownership interests. As per IFRS 10, when an additional interest is obtained and control is maintained, the transaction is accounted for as an equity transaction. The Company does not recognize any additional acquisition adjustments to reflect the subsequent purchase of additional shares in the subsidiary if there is no change in control.
Under IFRS, the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the related carrying value of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognized in the controlling interest’s equity as a credit or debit to share premium. Therefore, no gain or loss is recognized in the statement of income and no additional goodwill is recognized. The carrying value of the non-controlling interest is adjusted to reflect the change in the non-controlling interest’s ownership interest in the subsidiary.
As a result of the above explanation, as of June 30, 2012, the Company: (i) derecognized goodwill for an amount of Ps. 39.8 million, (ii) recognized a decrease in non-controlling interest for an amount of Ps. 26.2 million, (iii) recognized a decrease in net assets acquired measured at fair value under Argentine GAAP for an amount of Ps. 9.0 million, and (iv) recognized a debit of Ps. 22.6 million in shareholders’ equity.
Additionally, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Company reversed the impairment charge on goodwill generated by the acquisition of the non-controlling interest in Cactus Argentina S.A. recognized under Argentine GAAP for an amount of Ps. 10.5 million.
(q) Disposal of non-controlling interest
As explained in Note 18.2.2., the Company has applied the exemption in IFRS 1 for accounting for changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control. Consequently, disposals of non-controlling interests concluded prior to July 1, 2011 have not been restated.
The IFRS adjustments below relate to disposals of non-controlling interest occurring on or after July 1, 2011.
Argentine GAAP – Under Argentine GAAP, the Company accounted for disposals of non-controlling interests based on its carrying value at the date of disposal, recognizing any difference between the carrying value of the non-controlling interest and the consideration received in the statement of income.

29. Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (continued)
IFRS – Under IFRS, the Company applied the principles of IFRS 10 in accounting for changes in ownership interests. As per IFRS 10, when there is a disposal of non-controlling interests that do not result in a change in control, the transaction is accounted for as an equity transaction. The difference between the fair value of the consideration received and the related carrying value of the non-controlling interest disposed of is recognized in the controlling interest’s equity as a credit or debit to share premium. Therefore, no gain or loss is recognized in the statement of income. The carrying value of the non-controlling interest is adjusted to reflect the change in the non-controlling interest’s ownership interest in the subsidiary.
As a result, as of June 30, 2012, the Company: reversed a loss for an amount of Ps. 2.7 million in the statement of income, and recognized a debit of Ps. 2.7 million in shareholders’ equity.
(r) Amortization of transaction costs on borrowings
Argentine GAAP – Under Argentine GAAP, transactions costs directly attributable to the acquisition of borrowings are amortized under the straight-line method over the contract term.
IFRS – Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of borrowings are deducted from the fair value at which the financial liability is initially recognized. Subsequently, they are amortized using the effective interest method over the contract term.
As a result, the Company adjusted the carrying value of borrowings for an amount of Ps. 0.1 million and Ps. 0.4 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 0.1 million was recognized against retained earnings and an amount of Ps. 0.3 million gain was recognized in the statement of income.
(s) Settlement of BrasilAgro warrants
Argentine GAAP– Payments made by the Company for the settlement of BrasilAgro warrants were capitalized in the statement of financial position.
IFRS – In accordance with IFRS 2, any payment made to a counterparty on the cancellation or settlement of a grant of equity instruments, even if this occurs after the vesting date, is accounted for as a repurchase of an equity interest (that is, as a deduction from equity), except to the extent that the payment exceeds the fair value of the equity instruments repurchased, measured at the repurchase date. Any such excess is recognized as an expense.
As a result, the Company adjusted the balance of “Non-current investments” for an amount of 2.7 million as of June 30, 2012, against a deduction in the shareholders’ equity.
(t) Foreign currency translation
Argentine GAAP– Foreign operations shall be classified as integrated or non-integrated entities depending if their activities are carried out as an extension of the reporting entity. Exchange differences resulting from the translation of integrated entities are recognized in the statement of income under the line item “Financial results, net”. Exchange differences resulting from the translation of non-integrated entities are recognized in a separate reserve in equity.
IFRS – Exchange differences resulting from the translation of foreign operations are recognized in the statement of other comprehensive income.
As a result, the Company reclassified an amount of Ps. 32.5 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 against the statement of income and the statement of other comprehensive income.
(u) Deferred income tax
Argentine GAAP – The Company accounts for income taxes using the deferred tax method whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and

29. Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) (continued)
tax based assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates. Argentine GAAP does not prescribe detailed specific guidance related to the recognition of a valuation allowance. The Company assesses the need for a valuation allowance based on several factors including but not limited to current projections, legal expiration periods and others.
IFRS – There is no difference in the determination of deferred income taxes. However, deferred tax assets are recognized when it is considered probable (defined as “more likely than not”) that sufficient taxable profits will be available to utilize the temporary difference or unused tax losses. IFRS does not allow the recognition of valuation allowances.
IFRS establishes more specific and strict procedures to assess whether a deferred tax asset should be recognized. All available evidence, both positive and negative, is considered to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, a deferred tax asset should be recognized. Judgment must be used in considering the relative impact of negative and positive evidence. The weight given to the potential effect of negative and positive evidence should be commensurate with the extent to which it can be objectively verified. The more negative evidence that exists (a) the more positive evidence is necessary and (b) the more difficult it is to support a conclusion that a deferred tax asset can be recognized.
As a result, on transition to IFRS, the Company has not recognized deferred tax assets relating to any carry forward losses and other temporary differences for an amount of Ps. 16.5 million and Ps. 18.8 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings.
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 16.5 million was recognized against retained earnings, an amount of Ps. 2.8 million loss was recognized in the statement of income, and an amount of Ps. 0.5 million were recognized in the statement of other comprehensive income.
Additionally, the Company has assessed the impact of all IFRS adjustments on deferred income taxes. As a result, the Company recognized an adjustment to deferred income taxes of Ps. 17.4 million and Ps. 16.7 million as of July 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012, respectively. As of July 1, 2011, the adjustment was recognized against retained earnings. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, an amount of Ps. 17.4 million was recognized against retained earnings and an amount of Ps. 0.6 million gain was recognized in the statement of income.
(v) Non-controlling interest
Differences for non-controlling interest include the effect of recording, where applicable, the corresponding effect of other differences between Argentine GAAP and IFRS.

31. | Differences between Argentine GAAP and US GAAP

The Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Argentine GAAP and the regulations of the CNV, which differ in certain significant aspects from US GAAP. Such differences involve methods of measuring the amounts shown in the Consolidated Financial Statements, as well as additional disclosures required by US GAAP and Regulation S-X of the SEC.
As discussed in Notes 2.d), in order to comply with regulations of the CNV, the Company discontinued inflation accounting as from February 28, 2003. Since Argentine GAAP required companies to discontinue inflation adjustments as from October 1, 2003, the application of the CNV resolution represented a departure from Argentine GAAP. However, due to low inflation rates during the period from March 1 to September 30, 2003, such a departure did not have a material effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Description of reconciling items:
a) Impact of US GAAP adjustments on equity investees
Under Argentine GAAP, investments in companies in which the Company exercises significant influence, but not control, are accounted for under the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is recorded at original cost and periodically increased (decreased) by the investor's proportionate share of earnings (losses) of the investee and decreased by all dividends received from the investor by the investee. The Company applies its percentage ownership interest to the financial statements of its equity method investments prepared under Argentine GAAP. For purposes of this reconciliation, the Company has assessed the impact of US GAAP adjustments on the Argentine GAAP financial statements of its equity investees. As of June 30, 2012, the equity investees of the Company are BHSA, BACSA, Manibil, New Lipstick LLC, Rigby 183 LLC, Tarshop, AgroUranga and Agro Managers.
Banco Hipotecario and Banco de Crédito y Securitización:
During the years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company acquired additional shares in BHSA. These acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method of accounting under Argentine GAAP. The majority of the assets and liabilities on BHSA's balance sheet are financial assets carried at fair value, or are short-term in nature. The carrying value of these short-term assets approximates fair value. In these acquisitions, the fair value of BHSA's net assets exceeded the purchase price paid. When the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the consideration paid, negative goodwill exists under Argentine GAAP. Under Argentine GAAP, non-financial assets were written down against the negative goodwill in these acquisitions. Any remaining negative goodwill was immediately recognized as a gain in the respective periods. Accordingly for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded gains of Ps. 14.8 million and Ps. 70.4 million, respectively as a result of these transactions under Argentine GAAP.

31. Differences between Argentine GAAP and US GAAP (continued)
I- Differences in measurement methods (continued)

a) | Impact of US GAAP adjustments on equity investees (continued)

US GAAP requires that the difference between the cost of an investment and the amount of underlying equity in net assets of an investee should be accounted for as if the investee were a consolidated subsidiary. The difference at the date of purchasing the additional shares in BHSA between the cost of the investment and underlying equity in net assets was accounted for according to its nature. The Company applied the provisions of ASC N° 805 “Business Combination” (ASC No. 805), in assigning this difference. Under US GAAP authoritative literature, the concept of a "bargain purchase" (the purchase price was substantially lower than the fair value of the underlying net assets) does not apply to an equity method investment since the investor does not control the underlying assets of the investee and therefore would not be able to realize the gain by selling the underlying assets of the investee to unlock this gain. Accordingly, under US GAAP the reconciling item includes the reversal of the gains of nil, Ps. 14.8 million and Ps. 70.4 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Under US GAAP these gains are deferred and will be recognized upon consolidation or selling of the shares of BHSA.
Including the impact of the reversal of the gain explained above the US GAAP adjustments on the Company´s equity investees in BHSA related primary to (i) troubled debt restructuring; (ii) loan loss reserves; (iii) loan origination fees and costs; (iv) securitization of mortgaged loans; (vi) impairment of fore-closed assets; and (vii) consolidation of variable interest entities, among others. The US GAAP adjustments also include the effect of the elimination of intercompany results generated in the disposal of business related to Tarshop and Apsamedia as mentioned in note 31.I.ac). The impact of US GAAP adjustments related to BHSA were a loss of Ps. 31.4 million, a gain of Ps. 68.7 million and a loss of Ps. 26.4 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively; net of Ps. (2.3) million, Ps. (83.5) million and Ps. 188.3 million of other comprehensive income adjustments for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the recognition of paid in capital of Ps. 1.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 and the recognition of cumulative adjustments for accounting charges (related to the consolidation of variable interest entities for the adoption of ASU 2009-01) to shareholders’ equity of Ps. 49.5 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.
Metropolitan – New Lipstick:
As mentioned in Note 2.f), in July 2008 the Company acquired a 30% interest in Metropolitan 885 Third Avenue LLC (“Metropolitan”), and had recognized a zero value on its investment since acquisition as the share in Metropolitan’s losses exceeded its equity interest.
As also discussed in Note 2.f), in November 2010, Metropolitan 885 Third Avenue Leasehold LLC (the “Metropolitan Leasehold” and subsidiary of Metropolitan) presented a plan of reorganization (the “Plan”). The Plan was approved by the Company’s Members and the corresponding jurisdiction Court and it became effective on December 30, 2010. The Plan provides for, among other things, the reduction and restructuring of the financial debt and the extinguishment of 100% of the Parent Company, the Holding Company and the Junior Mezz membership interest in the Property Owner and issuance of the membership interest in the reorganized debtor to New Lipstick LLC, a newly formed entity in which the Company changed its member class and holds a 49% interest. In exchange for the 49% interest in New Lipstick LLC, IRSA made a US$ 15.3 million capital contribution, and surrendered its rights for the put option for the 50% of the shareholding initially acquired in Metropolitan, which amounted to approximately US$ 11.3 million as of the date of reorganization.
Argentine GAAP does not provide specific rules about this type of reorganizations. Under US GAAP, the Company applies the provisions of ASC No. 852 “Reorganizations”. Following ASC No. 852, if the reorganization value of the emerging entity immediately before the date of court approval is less than the total of liabilities, and the holders of existing voting shares immediately before court approval receive less than 50 percent of the voting shares of the emerging entity, fresh start accounting must be applied. The reorganization value of the entity shall be assigned to the entity's assets and liabilities in conformity with the procedures specified in ASC No. 805, “Business Combinations” (“ASC No. 805”) when the entity applies fresh start accounting. Accordingly, Metropolitan has recognized the results of the plan and the deconsolidation of its investment, and New Lipstick LLC has applied fresh start accounting.

I- Differences in measurement methods (continued)
a) Impact of US GAAP adjustments on equity investees (continued)
However, the results of the reorganization did not impact the results of IRSA under both US GAAP and Argentine GAAP since the Company had recognized a zero value on this investment as the share in Metropolitan’s losses exceeded its equity interest. Under Argentine GAAP, the investment in New Lipstick LLC is also accounted under the equity method. Under the equity method, the investment is recorded at original cost and periodically increased (decreased) by the investor’s proportionate share of earnings (losses) of the investee and decreased by all dividends received from the investor by the investee. The original cost includes the cash contribution and the put option settled as part of the transaction. There are no differences with US GAAP in the recorded cost of the investment. For purposes of the reconciliation, the company has assessed the impact of US GAAP adjustments on the Argentine GAAP financial statements of its equity investees. The US GAAP adjustments on the New Lipstick LLC equity investee related primary to (i) revenue recognition and schedule rent increases of the lessees where the entity is the lessor; (ii) the straight line of the ground lessee where the entity is a lessee; and (iii) acquisition costs. The net US GAAP adjustment on the results of the investment in New Lipstick LLC amounts to a loss of Ps. 106.3 million and a loss of Ps. 35.6 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Rigby 183 LLC:
In December 2010, the Company together with other shareholders (unrelated parties to the Company) formed Rigby 183 LLC (“Rigby 183”), for the purpose of acquiring a real estate property located in New York. At the date of formation, the Company held a 57% interest in Rigby 183. However, on March 31, 2011, the Company sold an 8% interest in Rigby 183 to CAM Communications LP, an unrelated party to the Company. As a result, as from the date of disposal, the Company held a 49% interest in Rigby 183. There is a limited liability agreement signed between the shareholders upon formation of Rigby 183 (the “Agreement”), which requires that certain significant decisions shall be taken with the majority of the voting rights plus the affirmative vote of one of the other of Rigby 183.
These decisions are central to the operation of Rigby 183 and, considering the Agreement, cannot be taken unilaterally by the Company. Therefore, upon formation of Rigby 183, the Company does not have the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of Rigby 183.
Under Argentine GAAP, and considering the Agreement mentioned in previous paragraph, the Company concluded that, as from the date of acquisition, the Company exercised joint control over Rigby 183 through its 57% interest over that Company. As required by Technical Resolution No. 21 “Equity Method of Accounting, Consolidation of Financial Statements and Related Party Transactions” (“RT No. 21”), under Argentine GAAP, investments in joint ventures where the Company exercises joint control are accounted under the proportionate consolidation method. However, Technical Resolution N° 21 also establishes that the financial statements of companies over which temporary control or joint control exists shall not be consolidated or proportionally consolidated. Temporary control or joint control exists when the investor expects to sale or dispose the investment acquired within one year since acquisition. Considering that, since the date of disposition of the 8% interest in Rigby 183, the Company exercised significant influence instead of joint control over this investment; the Company concluded that temporary joint control existed as of the date of formation of Rigby 183. Therefore, under Argentine GAAP, the Company accounted for its investment in Rigby 183 under the equity method of accounting since the date of its formation.
Under US GAAP similar Argentine GAAP since the Company does not exercise control over its investment in Rigby 183, the equity method of accounting was applied since the date of its formation, in accordance with ASC No. 323, “Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures” (“ASC No. 323”).
For purposes of this reconciliation, the Company has assessed the impact of US GAAP adjustments on its equity investee, Rigby 183, which related primary to (i) differences in the accounting for operating leases; and (ii) differences in the accounting for business combinations. The net US GAAP adjustment on the investment in Rigby 183 amounts to a gain of Ps. 6.4 million and a gain of 3.2 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

a) | Impact of US GAAP adjustments on equity investees (continued)

Tarshop:
APSA sold an 80% in Tarshop on September 13, 2010, and deconsolidated the subsidiary as of that date. As from September 13, 2010, APSA maintains a 20% interest in Tarshop and accounts for its investment under the equity method of accounting. The US GAAP adjustments on Tarshop’s equity investee related primary to (i) loan loss reserves; (ii) loan origination fees and costs and (iii) consolidation of variable interest entities. The impact of the US GAAP adjustments to the financial statements of Tarshop prepared under Argentine GAAP were a loss of Ps. 5.2 million and a gain of Ps. 2.9 million as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company recognized the non-controlling investment retained under the equity method at the date control was lost. Under US GAAP APSA recognized the non-controlling investment retained at its fair value at the date control was lost. The US GAAP adjustment on APSA´s equity investee in Tarshop amounted to a loss of Ps. 9.8 million as of June 30, 2011. The net impact to equity of the adjustments described above amount to Ps. 6.9 million as of June 30, 2011 and Ps. 12.1 million as of June 30, 2012.
The remaining 80% interest in Tarshop is held by BHSA, an equity method investee of the Company, as further described above. Accordingly, the US GAAP adjustments on the Company’s equity investment in BHSA include also the portion of the US GAAP adjustments in Tarshop generated by the Company’s equity interest in BHSA.
As a result of the explanation on this note, the US GAAP adjustment on equity investee are summarized below:

Under US GAAP, dairy, breeding and developing livestock is recorded at the lower of cost or market, with costs removed from inventory on a first-in/ first-out basis. All direct and indirect costs of developing livestock, such as the purchase price, labor costs, feed, vaccines and veterinary fees are accumulated until the livestock reaches maturity or are sold. Dairy and breeding herd is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of five years.

b) | Valuation of inventories (continued)

As of June 30, 2011 and 2010 the significant difference between Argentine and US GAAP is due to the increase of beef cattle prices.
Under Argentine GAAP inventories, primarily agricultural supplies, are valued at replacement cost. Changes in replacement cost are charged to income as incurred. Additionally, harvested crops for the Company’s operations in Bolivia are measured at net realizable value, with changes being recognized in the statement of income.
Under US GAAP purposes, consumable supplies are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of consumable supplies is determined using the weighted average method. The cost of hotel inventories is determined using the first-in first-out method. Additionally, harvested crops for the Company’s operations in Bolivia are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value because there is not an active market for the produce in this country.
As a result of the above explanation, the US GAAP adjustment amounts to a gain of Ps. 11.1 million, a loss of Ps. 47.6 million and a loss of Ps. 52.3 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
c) Deferred income tax
The Company accounts for income taxes using the deferred tax method under both Argentine GAAP and US GAAP. Argentine GAAP is similar to the guidance in ASC No. 740, “Income Taxes”, (“ASC No. 740”).
The Company accounts for income taxes using the deferred tax method under both Argentine GAAP and US GAAP. Argentine GAAP is similar to the guidance in ASC No. 740-10 “Income Taxes” (“ASC No. 740-10”) (formerly FIN 48 “Uncertain Tax Positions”). However, as discussed in Note 2.(i) Resolution CD 93/2005 issued by the CPCECABA provided for the accounting treatment of differences between the tax basis and book basis of non-monetary items for deferred income tax calculation purposes when companies prepare price-level restated financial statements. This resolution mandated companies to treat these differences as temporary differences but allowed a one-time accommodation to continue treating these differences as permanent. As a result, the Company had elected to continue treating these differences as permanent in its prior years´ financial statements. On October 24, 2011, in anticipation of IFRS for public entities, the CNV issued Resolution No. 592 which provides that issuers who followed the Resolution CD 93/2005 should recognize the deferred tax liability on a retroactive basis before its transition date, i.e. July 1, 2011 for IRSA. As a result, the Company recorded an adjustment to retroactively recognize the deferred tax liability and modified the amounts disclosed in the previous years as follows:

|  | As of June 30, 2011 |  |  | As of June 30, 2010 |
|  | As adjusted |  |  | As previously issued |  |  | As adjusted |  |  | As previously issued |
Reconciliation of net income |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Non-controlling on adjustments (Note 31.I.w) |  |  | 70,490 |  |  |  | 80,328 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Under US GAAP, the Company applies ASC No. 830 “Foreign Currency Matters – Income Taxes” (“ASC No. 830”), which requires such differences to be treated as temporary.

c) Deferred income tax (continued)
In addition, the US GAAP adjustment includes the effect of deferred income taxes on the reconciling items, as appropriate.
ASC No. 740 prescribes more detailed and specific guidance related to the assessment of the need for a valuation allowance. US GAAP requires the weighting of positive and negative evidence in accordance with its objective verifiability. Furthermore, it indicates that a cumulative loss in recent years is a significant piece of negative evidence that is difficult to overcome thereby requiring positive evidence of sufficient quality and quantity to support a conclusion that, based on the weight of all available evidence, a valuation allowance is not needed. When assessing whether a company's deferred tax asset will be realized, a company's recent losses or near-term expected losses will generally carry more weight in the assessment than its prior historic profitability or its longer-term projected profitability (which is typically more subjective in nature). Therefore, the existence of a 3-year cumulative loss in a jurisdiction, particularly if it includes multiple periods of significant annual losses without recent evidence of turnaround, will effectively preclude consideration of future profitability in most instances as being objectively verifiable.
Accordingly, under US GAAP, a full valuation allowance has been provided for the net deferred tax assets of Arcos del Gourmet and Llao Llao Resorts.
d) Elimination of gain on acquisition of non-controlling interest
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company recorded, during fiscal year 1999, a gain on the acquisition of the minority interest of Agro Riego (subsequently merged with and into the Company). Under US GAAP, such excess was recorded as a reduction in the values of the underlying non-current assets of Agro Riego and is being amortized over the estimated useful lives of such assets which is approximately 42 years.
e) Available-for-sale securities
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company´s available for sale securities include mutual funds, shares of public companies, mortgage bonds and government bonds.
The Company’s investments are considered available-for-sale as these securities could potentially be sold in response to needs for liquidity, changes in the availability of and the yield on alternative instruments or changes in funding sources or terms. Management determines the appropriate classification of debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date.
Under Argentine GAAP, available-for-sale securities are carried at market value, with unrealized gains and losses recorded in income. Under US GAAP, pursuant to ASC No. 320 “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities” ("ASC No. 320"), these investments are classified as available-for-sale securities and, accordingly, unrealized gains and losses are excluded from income and reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. ASC No. 320 also states that for individual available-for-sale securities, an enterprise shall determine whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is other than temporary. In such event, accumulated unrealized losses included in other comprehensive income shall be reclassified into the statement of income. See Note 31.II.l).
f) Effect of US GAAP adjustments on management fee
As discussed in Note 31.II.p), the Company entered into a Management Agreement with CAMSA, pursuant to which CAMSA provides agricultural advisory services and certain other administration services to the Company.
The Company pays CAMSA an annual fee equivalent to 10% of the after-tax net income of the Company for these services. The reconciliation to US GAAP includes the effects of the US GAAP adjustments on management fee.
g) Accounting for warrants
In March 2008, the Company issued 180 million warrants as part of the issuance of common stock. Under Argentine GAAP, proceeds from the issuance were allocated to the shares and warrants issued based on the relative

g) Accounting for warrants (continued)
fair market value estimated upon subscription. The fair value of the warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes method as of the date of issuance. Under Argentine GAAP, the warrants were considered an equity instrument and the portion of the proceeds allocated to the warrants was recorded as additional paid-in capital. The warrant agreement requires that the Company file, and use best efforts to cause to be declared and keep effective, a registration statement covering the issuance of the shares underlying the warrants. However, the warrant agreement fails to specify the remedies, if any, that would be available to warrant holders in the event there is no effective registration statement covering the issuance of shares underlying the warrants. Under US GAAP, the accounting of the warrants as a derivative liability is required under ASC No. 815-40 “Derivatives and Hedging” (ASC No. 815-40) (formerly EITF 00-19 “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock”) due to the absence in the warrant agreement of provisions addressing the exercise of the warrants in the absence of an effective registration statement. Under ASC No. 815-40, the registration of the common stock underlying the warrants is not within the Company's control. In addition, under ASC No. 815-40, in the absence of explicit provisions to the contrary in the warrant agreement, the Company must assume that it could be required to settle the warrants on a net-cash basis, thereby necessitating the treatment of the potential settlement obligation as a liability. Under the provisions of ASC No. 815-40, a contract designated as a liability must be carried at full fair value on a company’s balance sheet, with any changes in fair value recorded in the company’s results of operations. Under US GAAP, the proceeds were allocated first to the warrants on a full fair value basis with the residual allocated to common stock. The fair value of the warrants was Ps. 115.2 million as of the date of issuance. The US GAAP adjustment to equity represents the reclassification of additional paid-in capital to liability for such amount. The US GAAP adjustment to income represents the change in the fair value of the warrants. The Company recognized a gain of Ps. 76.5 million, a loss of Ps. 23.0 million and a loss of Ps. 23.8 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Also, an amount of Ps. 0.02 million of warrants was exercised as of June 30, 2011. As such, this amount was reclassified from liabilities to equity.

| h) Accounting for uncertainty in income taxes

On July 1, 2007, the Company adopted ASC No. 740, “Income Taxes”, (“ASC No. 740). ASC No. 740 addresses the accounting and disclosure of uncertain tax positions. ASC No. 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The difference between the tax benefit recognized in the financial statements for a position in accordance with ASC No. 740 and the tax benefit claimed in the tax return is referred to as an unrecognized tax benefit.
The adoption of ASC No. 740 did not result in an increase to the net liability for unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company’s principal taxable jurisdiction is Argentina. At any point in time, the Company may have tax audits underway at various stages of completion. The Company evaluates the tax positions and establishes liabilities for uncertain tax positions that may be challenged by local authorities and may not be fully sustained, despite the Company’s belief that the underlying tax positions are fully supportable. Uncertain tax positions are reviewed on an ongoing basis and are adjusted in light of changing facts and circumstances, including progress of tax audits, developments in case law, and closing of statute of limitations. Such adjustments are reflected in the tax provision as appropriate.
i) Depreciation of fixed assets
Prior to 2007, certain office and apartment buildings of the Company were being depreciated over a useful life of 50 years under Argentine GAAP. For US GAAP purposes, these buildings were being depreciated over a useful life of 40 years. Accordingly, the US GAAP adjustment reflected higher depreciation charges for US GAAP purposes. As a result of this adjustment, the net book value of these assets for US GAAP purposes differs from the book value for Argentine GAAP purposes. In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2007, independent appraisers reassessed the appropriateness of the useful lives of the Company’s office buildings and other properties. As a result of the work, the remaining useful lives of certain of these properties were reduced and no difference exists in the remaining useful life of these assets between Argentine GAAP and US GAAP. However, due to the different cost base of fixed assets for Argentine GAAP and US GAAP purposes, a US GAAP reconciling item for depreciation still exists.

| j) Pre-operating expenses

Under Argentine GAAP, the Company capitalizes certain costs related to pre-opening activities and other start-up costs. These costs are amortized under the straight-line method generally over a period of three years. Under US GAAP, pursuant to ASC 720-15 - “Other Expenses-Start-up Costs” (“ASC No. 720-15”), such costs are charged to income as incurred. The US GAAP adjustment for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 represents the net effect of (i) expensing such costs as incurred and (ii) the reversal of amortization expense on costs capitalized under Argentine GAAP and expensed under US GAAP.

| k) Mortgage payable with no stated interest rate

In 1991, IRSA obtained a non-interest bearing mortgage with a face value of US$ 3,300 to acquire a property (Suipacha 652/64). Under Argentine GAAP, IRSA did not make any fair value adjustment for this non-interest bearing mortgage. Under US GAAP however, the non-interest bearing mortgage held by IRSA was recorded at the estimated market value of the note. IRSA used an interest rate of 12%, which approximated its weighted-average borrowing rate, in determining the present value of this debt. This mortgage was fully repaid in November 1996. As a result, the carrying value of the acquired property was decreased by Ps. 2,000. This adjustment gives rise to differences in depreciation expense and is included in the line item “Accounting for IRSA Step Acquisition” in the US GAAP reconciliation.

| l) Accounting for IRSA Step Acquisition

On October 1, 2008, the Company acquired an additional 11.57% equity interest in IRSA and increased its ownership interest to 54.01% and started consolidating the subsidiary as from that date (the “IRSA Step Acquisition”).
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company accounted for the IRSA Step Acquisition under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price paid is allocated to the net assets acquired based on its fair value. The Company’s previously held equity interest in IRSA (amounted to 42.13% as of the date of acquisition) was not re-measured to fair value at the date the controlling interest was acquired. Assets, including goodwill, and liabilities of the acquired business are recognized using a cost accumulation approach (i.e. for the previous equity interests acquired). Any outstanding minority interest is recorded at its carrying amount.
The IRSA Step Acquisition generated negative goodwill since the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired exceeded the cost of acquisition.
Under Argentine GAAP, when negative goodwill exists, any identifiable acquired intangible assets are not recognized. Negative goodwill is recognized as follows, as appropriate in the circumstances: (i) the portion of negative goodwill associated with future expected losses is recognized in income as losses are incurred; and/or (ii) the amount of negative goodwill exceeding the amount represented by the interest acquired over the non-monetary assets is recognized in income at acquisition date; and /or (iii) the amount of negative goodwill not exceeding the amount represented by the interest acquired over the non-monetary assets is deferred and amortized to income under the straight line method over the weighted average useful lives of the identifiable net assets of the acquired value and negative goodwill was recognized and amortized under the straight-line method over 20 years.
Under US GAAP, the Company followed the provisions of ASC No. 805 (“ASC No. 805”), “Business Combinations”, formerly SFAS No. 141. Under ASC No. 805, any excess of the value assigned to the net identifiable assets acquired over the cost of the acquired company is first allocated on a pro rata basis to reduce non current assets and then to earnings as extraordinary gain.
The purchase price allocation process for the IRSA Step Acquisition under US GAAP was the following:

1) | Recognition of intangible assets identified during the purchase price allocation and which were assigned a zero value under Argentine GAAP;

31. Differences between Argentine GAAP and US GAAP (continued)
I- Differences in measurement methods (continued)

l) | Accounting for IRSA Step Acquisition (continued)

2) | Reduction of negative goodwill to zero by fully allocating it to (a) a reduction in the value of non-current assets allocated under Argentine GAAP (i.e. primarily fixed assets, inventories and undeveloped parcels of land); and (b) intangible assets;

This allocation process resulted in the change of the cost basis of the net assets of IRSA as of September 30, 2008 creating a new cost basis of these assets for Cresud after the Step Acquisition and the recognition of intangible assets for approximately Ps. 33 million (basically in-place leases) which were assigned a zero value under Argentine GAAP.
The new cost bases give rise to the following reconciling items under US GAAP with their corresponding effects in the Consolidated Statement of Income:

(a) | Reversal of the amortization of negative goodwill recognized under Argentine GAAP;

(b) | Lower depreciation charges for non-current assets which fair values were reduced on a pro rata basis;

(c) | Amortization charges for intangible assets and liabilities which were assigned a zero value under Argentine GAAP;

(d) | Corresponding effects on deferred income taxes and minority interest (included separately in corresponding line items).

Under ASC No. 805, the new cost basis includes higher values resulting from the comparison between the fair values and the net book values determined under US GAAP at the percentage interest acquired. Once the new cost basis is determined, negative goodwill is reduced to zero on a pro rata basis as explained above. The US GAAP reconciling item to equity reflects the (i) adjustment to fair value from net book value, which was greater under US GAAP because the original net book value basis under US GAAP was lower than the Argentine GAAP original net book value basis, (ii) reduction of negative goodwill, and (iii) corresponding effect of the purchase price allocation process adjustments to income.
Subsequent to October 1, 2008, IRSA sold to third parties certain of its assets (i.e. primarily buildings). The gain on the sale of these assets was determined by comparison between their cost basis to the Company and the consideration received. These assets had a different cost basis between Argentine GAAP and US GAAP on the Company’s books, generally resulting in a lower cost basis under US GAAP. Consequently, the reconciling item also includes the adjustment to account for a higher gain under US GAAP.

| m) Securitization accounting

The Company enters into ongoing revolving-period securitization programs transferring credit card receivables to trusts in exchange for cash and retained interests in the trusts (known as “CPs”). Part of the proceeds is retained by the trustee and maintained as a cash reserve to serve as collateral for the payment of amounts due on the TDFs. Cash reserves flow back to the Company on a monthly basis according to a schedule until all TDFs are fully paid.
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company recognizes a gain or loss on the sale of receivables when the carrying value of transferred credit card receivables differs from the amount of cash and CPs received. Results recognized on the sale of receivables are reported as a component of “Net gain from retained interest in securitized receivables of Tarjeta Shopping” in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Cash reserves are stated at cost and are classified as “guarantee deposits” within the caption “Other receivables” in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. CPs are carried at their equity value based on financial statements issued by the trusts, less allowances for impairment if the carrying value exceeds their fair value and classified as investments in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Certain expenses associated with the securitization of credit card receivables are capitalized and amortized over the term of the agreements.
Under US GAAP, prior to July 1, 2010 the Company adopted SFAS No. 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities”, as amended by SFAS 156, both of them codified under the topic ASC No. 860 “Transfers and Servicing” (“ASC No. 860”). ASC No. 860 required an entity to

m) Securitization accounting (continued)
recognize the financial and servicing assets it controls and the liabilities it had incurred and to derecognize financial assets when control has been surrendered. The proceeds of securitized financial assets were allocated to the assets sold, the servicing asset or liability and retained interest, based on their relative estimated fair values at the transfer date in determining the gain on the securitization transaction. Furthermore, the Company considered that the securitization programs through which it transfers receivables to financial trusts qualify as QSPEs. ASC No. 860 also provided guidance on accounting for separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities. In accordance with the provisions of ASC No. 860, separately recognized servicing assets and servicing liabilities had to be initially measured at fair value, if practicable. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Company might have used either the amortization method or the fair value measurement method to account for servicing assets and servicing liabilities within the scope of this Statement. Following ASC No. 860, the Company elected the amortization method and assessed the increase in the obligation of the servicing liability based on fair value.
Prior to July 1, 2010, the retained interests in securitized credit card receivables were treated as an equity security classified as available-for-sale in accordance with ASC No. 320 “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities” (“ASC No. 320”), and were carried at fair value. At the time of securitization, the retained interest was initially recorded at the basis allocated in accordance with ASC No. 860. This original cost basis was periodically adjusted to fair value, which was based on the discounted anticipated future cash flows on a “cash out” basis. The cash out method projected cash collections to be received only after all amounts owed to investors have been paid. Adjustments to fair value (net of related deferred income taxes) were recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. ASC No. 320 also stated that for individual securities classified as available-for-sale an enterprise should determine whether a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis is other than temporary. In such event, accumulated unrealized losses included in other comprehensive income should be reclassified into the statement of income. Cash reserves were considered retained interests and as such they were considered in calculating the gain or loss on the sale of receivables under US GAAP.
Effective July 1, 2010, the Company implemented new accounting guidance provided by SFAS 166 and 167 (ASU 2009-16 and ASU 2009-17, respectively, under the new codification), which amend the accounting for the transfers of financial assets and the consolidation of variable interest entities (VIEs).
The new guidance eliminates the concept of qualified special purpose entities (“QSPEs”) that were previously exempt from consolidation and introduces a new framework for determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is required to consolidate the assets and liabilities of the VIE. Therefore, the Company must evaluate all existing securitization trusts that qualify as QSPEs to determine whether they must be consolidated in accordance with ASU 2009-17. Under the new guidance, the primary beneficiary is the party that has both (1) the power to direct the activities of an entity that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; and (2) through its interests in the VIE, the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
To assess whether the Company has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, the Company considers all facts and circumstances, including its role in establishing the VIE and its ongoing rights and responsibilities. This assessment includes, first, identifying the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; and second, identifying which party, if any, has power over those activities.
As a consequence of this assessment, the Company was deemed to be the primary beneficiary of these securitization trusts because the Company (through its subsidiaries) has the power to direct the activities of these VIEs through its servicing responsibilities and duties. The Company also through its retained interests held in these securitizations has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE.
Therefore, the Company must, under ASC 810-10-65, measure the components of those newly consolidated financial trusts at their carrying amounts as of the adoption date. The Company must determine the amounts of the assets, liabilities, and non-controlling interests of the newly consolidated financial trusts, that would have been recorded in the Company’s financial statements as of July 1st 2010, as if ASU 2009-17 had been effective as of the

date of the Company’s initial involvement with the financial trusts. Any difference between the net amount added (assets less liabilities of each financial trusts where the Company is primary beneficiary) from the Company’s balance sheet and the amount of any previously recognized retained interest is recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of June 30, 2010.
The company determined that the difference between (i) the net amount that should be added as of June 30, 2010 (carrying amounts of assets less liabilities of each financial trusts), and (ii) the amount of the retained interest related to securitization programs, is not material. Therefore, no adjustments to retained earnings were recognized under US GAAP as of June 30, 2010. The amount of retained interest as of June 30, 2010 was as follows:

|  | Cost |  |  | Estimated unrealized (loss) (i) |  |  | Fair value (ii) |
Retained Interest as of June 30, 2010 |  |  | 119,576 |  |  |  | (4,457 | ) |  |  | 115,119 |

These retained interests were treated as an equity securities classified as available-for-sale in accordance with ASC No. 320, and were carried at fair value. As of July 1, 2010, in accordance with the new accounting standards, the estimated unrealized losses were reclassified to retained earnings (loss) and the company must consolidate its VIEs in which it had retained interests and for which it is the primary beneficiary. The table below presents the assets and liabilities of the financial trusts which have been consolidated for US GAAP purposes:

|  | July 1, 2010 |
Total Assets (1) |  |  | 268,692 |
Total Liabilities (2) |  |  | 151,559 |
CPs |  |  | 117,133 |

(1) | Included cash and due from banks, credit card receivables net of allowances and other assets.

(2) | Included debt securities and other liabilities.

On September 13, 2010, APSA sold 80% of Tarshop’s capital stock thus retaining an equity interest of 20% in such entity. At the date of the sale, APSA deconsolidated the subsidiary (Tarshop) and recognized a gain for the sale of 80% capital stock in accordance with ASC No. 810 amounting to Ps. 28.8 million. Therefore, no reconciliation adjustments were recorded since such date regarding Tarshop securitization programs.
Provided below is an analysis of the securitization accounting adjustments as of June 30, 2010, including a description of each significant component, where appropriate.
The shareholders’ equity adjustments as of such date represent the difference in the valuation of the Company’s retained interests in the trusts related to securitization programs that qualified for sale treatment under US GAAP. Under Argentine GAAP, retained interests in the trusts were carried at the lower of their equity value and their fair value. Under US GAAP those retained interests were considered available-for-sale securities in accordance with ASC No. 320 and, as a result, were carried at their estimated fair market value. The US GAAP adjustments affecting shareholders’ equity as of June 30, 2010 are as follows:

The US GAAP adjustments affecting net income as reported under Argentine GAAP for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, are as follows:

|  | 2010 |
Reversal of gains recognized under Argentine GAAP |  |  | (6,374 | )
Recognition of gains under US GAAP on the sale of receivables |  |  | 4,094 |
US GAAP adjustment |  |  | (2,280 | )

Regarding receivables transferred in connection with the Company’s securitization programs that qualified for sale treatment under US GAAP, neither the Company nor the trustee have responsibility over any shortfall or failure in collecting the receivables which are the source of cash payment for the TDF holders. Under no circumstances neither the Company nor the trustee are required to repurchase the securitized receivables. Furthermore, the agreements relating to the securitization stipulate that the rights of the beneficiaries (TDF holders) will not be affected by any financial or liquidity failure of either the trustee or the Company. The agreements also state that the transfer qualifies as a non-recourse transfer of receivables since if receivables are not collected in full, neither the trustee nor the Company is obligated to use its own cash flows to cover any potential shortfall or collection failure.
The following summarizes the changes in the balance of the Company's retained interests for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010:

|  | Cost |  |  | Estimated unrealized gain (loss) |  |  | Fair value (i) |
Balance as of June 30, 2009 |  |  | 134,659 |  |  |  | (6,737 | ) |  |  | 127,922 |
Increase in retained interest |  |  | 56,724 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 56,724 |
Liquidation of retained interests |  |  | (71,807 | ) |  |  | - |  |  |  | (71,807 | )
Change in unrealized gain |  |  | - |  |  |  | 2,280 |  |  |  | 2,280 |
Balance as of June 30, 2010 |  |  | 119,576 |  |  |  | (4,457 | ) |  |  | 115,119 |

(i) | Unrealized gains for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 were included as a component of “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income” in shareholders’ equity.

The key economic assumptions used in measuring the fair value of retained interests at the time of and subsequent to a securitization are the estimated cash flows and the discount rate. The estimated cash flows have been discounted at rates that include charges for losses. The valuation models use information deriving from or that can be observed with market data.
n) Present- value accounting
Under Argentine GAAP, certain tax credits and liabilities are measured at present value as of fiscal year-end. Under US GAAP, present valuing or discounting of these assets is precluded. The US GAAP adjustments amount to a loss of Ps. 4.1 million, Ps. 4.0 million and Ps. 1.4 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010.

o) Reversal of previously recognized impairment losses
Under Argentine GAAP previously recognized impairment losses can be reversed. Amounts reversed for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 amounted to Ps. 0.7 million, Ps. 1.1 million and Ps. 1.2 million, respectively. Under US GAAP, reversal of a previously recognized impairment loss is prohibited. When an impairment loss is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of the asset becomes the new cost basis, which is depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset. Previously impairment losses reversed under Argentine GAAP increased the assets costs giving rise to higher depreciation expenses. These higher depreciation charges are reversed under US GAAP which for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 amounted to Ps. 4.4 million, Ps. 4.3 million and Ps. 4.3 million, respectively. Therefore, the US GAAP adjustment represents the net effect of (i) a loss for the reversal of previously recognized impairment losses under Argentine GAAP and (ii) a gain for lower depreciation charges under US GAAP.
p) Accounting for real estate barter transactions
In the ordinary course of business, IRSA enters into certain non-monetary transactions with third parties pursuant to which IRSA sells parcels of land held for sale in the ordinary course of business in exchange for cash and/or other real estate properties. See Note 2.f. for details of the transactions.
Under Argentine GAAP, these transactions are recorded based on the fair value of the assets involved and, as a result, a gain or loss is recognized at the time of the exchange. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company recorded gains of nil, Ps. 51.6 million, and nil for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Under US GAAP, IRSA applied the provisions of ASC No. 845 (“ASC 845”), “Non-monetary Transactions”. ASC No. 845 requires exchanges of non-monetary assets be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged and eliminates the narrow exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a broader exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have "commercial substance."
Under ASC No. 845 IRSA determined that all of its barter transactions have commercial substance and therefore the transactions must be measured at fair value.
Furthermore, the Company completed certain barter transactions where it does not receive a down payment or receives a down payment which is less than 10% of the sales price. As these transactions involved the exchange of real estate and the amount of the monetary consideration was not significant, IRSA concluded that the exchange is a nonmonetary transaction, and considered the guidance in ASC No. 360-20 "Property, Plant and Equipment - Real Estate" ("ASC No. 360-20") for the recognition of gain. IRSA accounted for these barter transactions under the deposit method as prescribed in ASC 360-20. Under the deposit method IRSA does not recognize profit, nor records a receivable and continues to report the property and related liabilities in its balance sheet even if the buyer has assumed the liability. IRSA discloses that those items are subject to a sales contract. Therefore, under US GAAP, in these cases any gain recognized under Argentine GAAP is reversed. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, IRSA completed a barter transaction with TGLT whereby IRSA exchanged a plot of land located in the neighborhood of Caballito for residential units to be constructed in the future. Therefore, IRSA determined that the gain related to this transaction of Ps. 43.4 million should be reversed for US GAAP.
IRSA completed through APSA another barter transaction, i.e. the agreement with TGLT to barter the Beruti plot of land, whereby IRSA exchanged a parcel of land for monetary consideration and residential units to be constructed in the future. As of June 30, 2011, IRSA recognized a gain of Ps. 20.5 million on this transaction under Argentine GAAP. Under US GAAP, IRSA evaluated the guidance and considered that this transaction is partly monetary and non-monetary. The gain of the non-monetary exchange of land for finished units will be deferred until the units are finished and delivered to IRSA. Once that delivery occurs, IRSA will evaluate if the non-monetary transaction qualifies for gain recognition under ASC No. 845. For the monetary portion of the transaction, IRSA followed ASC 845-10-15-15 through 16 and considering that: i) the sale is consummated, ii) consideration has been exchanged, iii) the cash received is not subject to future subordination, and iv) the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred, concluded that the transaction met the criteria for sale recognition under ASC 360. Therefore, IRSA determined that the gain related to the non-monetary portion of the transaction of Ps. 8.2 million should be reversed for US GAAP while maintaining the gain of Ps. 12.3 million for the monetary portion of the transaction.

31. Differences between Argentine GAAP and US GAAP (continued)
I- Differences in measurement methods (continued)
p) Accounting for real estate barter transactions (continued)
The gain under US GAAP was calculated as the total gain multiplied by a factor determined as the consideration received over the sum of the consideration plus the fair value of the item received.
For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, a total gain related to barter transactions of nil, Ps. 51.6 million, and nil, respectively, recorded under Argentine GAAP, was reversed under US GAAP. However, the US GAAP adjustment also reflects the effect of gains nil, Ps. 27.0 million and Ps. 0.7 million, for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, related to the conclusion of barter transactions originated in prior fiscal years for which the related results have been previously recognized for Argentine GAAP purposes.
q) Reversal of loss (gain) from valuation of real estate inventories at net realizable value
Under Argentine GAAP, inventories for which the title has not yet been transferred but for which a down payment has been received fixing the sales price and the terms and conditions of the agreement provide reasonable assurance about the closing of the transaction and realization of gain, are carried at net realizable value as of fiscal year-end (these transactions are considered “consummated” for Argentine GAAP purposes). Under US GAAP, inventories are carried at cost. The US GAAP adjustment for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, represents (i) the recognition of gains of Ps. 9.5 million related to the sale of Rosario plot of land, Ps. 0.4 million related to the sale of units of Caballito (see Note 4.e (i)), and Ps. 1.0 million related to the sale of residential plots of El Encuentro (see Note 4.e. (ii)), since the conditions for revenue related to these prior transactions were fulfilled for US GAAP purposes, recognized under Argentine GAAP in previous years, and (ii) the reversal of a gain of Ps. 3.4 million related to sales which conditions were not fulfilled for US GAAP purposes and the reversal of a gain of Ps. 0.7 million related to Abril project.
The US GAAP adjustment for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011, represents: (i) the recognition of gains of Ps. 1.2 million related to the sale of Carlos Gardel plot of land and Ps. 16.5 million related to the sale of units of Caballito Nuevo, since the conditions for revenue related to these prior transaction were fulfilled for US GAAP purposes, recognized under Argentine GAAP in previous years, and (ii) the reversal of gains of Ps. 15.0 million related to the sale of Rosario plot of land and Ps. 0.4 million related to the sale of residential plots of El Encuentro, recognized under Argentine GAAP.
The US GAAP adjustment for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, represents: (i) the recognition under US GAAP of previously recognized losses under Argentine GAAP of Ps. (0.2) million, for which deeds of title were signed, and (ii) the reversal of gains recognized under Argentine GAAP of Ps. 6.4 million.
r) Appraisal revaluation of fixed assets
Under Argentine GAAP, APSA recognized a parcel of land acquired prior to June 30, 1986 at its appraised value as of such date. This appraisal increased the carrying value of the land by Ps. 4.0 million, which was recorded against an appraisal revaluation reserve account in the shareholders’ equity. Under Argentine GAAP, this appraisal revaluation reserve will be amortized to income once the land is disposed of or its value becomes impaired.
Under US GAAP, this parcel of land was recorded at original cost and therefore this reserve has been reversed. Since land is not amortized, there is no impact to the Consolidated Statement of Income.
s) Software developed or obtained for internal use
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company capitalizes certain costs related to software developed or obtained for internal use, which would be expensed under US GAAP pursuant to the provisions of ASC No. 350-40 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use” (“ASC No. 350-40”).
The US GAAP adjustment for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 represents the net effect of (i) expensing such costs as incurred and (ii) the reversal of amortization expense on costs capitalized under Argentine GAAP and expensed under US GAAP. As of June 30, 2011, these costs were fully amortized under Argentine GAAP.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Company did not capitalize any costs.

t) Reversal of capitalized financial costs
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company capitalized financial costs comprising of interest and foreign exchange differences for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010. Under US GAAP, the Company applied the provisions of ASC No. 835-20 “Interest - Capitalization of Interest” (“ASC No. 835-20”), which requires interest capitalization on assets which have a period of time to get them ready for their intended use. Capitalization of foreign exchange differences is not allowed under ASC No. 835-20. The US GAAP reconciling item represents the net effect of (i) reversing the foreign exchange differences capitalized under Argentine GAAP related to the acquisition and construction of PAMSA, Arcos del Gourmet and Shopping Neuquén for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 amounting to a loss of Ps. 0.5 million, a loss of Ps. 0.5 million and a gain of Ps. 1.8 million, respectively; and (ii) the reversal of depreciation expense on foreign exchange differences capitalized under Argentine GAAP and expensed under US GAAP amounting to Ps. 1.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 and Ps. 1.7 million for the fiscal years ended 2011 and 2010.
u) Debtor’s accounting for a modification of APSA convertible debt instruments
In August 2002 the Company´s subsidiary APSA issued US$ 50 million of Convertible Notes (the “APSA Convertible Notes). Under US GAAP, the Company applied ASC No. 470-20, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options”, (“ASC No. 470-20”), formerly APB No. 14, “Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants”, which requires that no portion of the proceeds be allocated to the conversion feature if the convertible debt securities are convertible into common stock of the issuer at a specified price at the option of the holder and are sold at a price or have a value at issuance not significantly in excess of the face amount. Under US GAAP, the Company applied the guidance in ASC No. 470-20 regarding Accounting for convertible securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios. ASC No. 470-20 requires that embedded beneficial conversion features present in convertible securities be valued separately at issuance when the non-detachable conversion feature is “in-the-money” at the commitment date. The embedded beneficial conversion feature should be recognized and measured by allocating to additional paid-in capital a portion of the proceed equal to the intrinsic value of that feature. That amount is calculated at the commitment date as the difference between the conversion price and the fair value of the common stock or other securities into which the security is convertible, multiplied by the number of shares into which the security is convertible (intrinsic value). Under US GAAP, no proceeds were allocated to the embedded conversion feature since it was “out-the-money” at the commitment date (i.e. the intrinsic value at the commitment date was zero).
The terms of the APSA Convertible Notes were modified to extend the maturity date through July 19, 2014. Argentine GAAP requires that an exchange of debt instruments with substantially different terms be considered a debt extinguishment and that the old debt instrument be derecognized. Argentine GAAP clarifies that from a debtor’s perspective, an exchange of debt instruments between, or a modification of a debt instrument by, a debtor and a creditor shall be deemed to have been accomplished with debt instruments that are substantially different if the present value of the cash flows under the terms of the new debt instrument is at least 10 percent different from the present value of the remaining cash flows under the terms of the original instrument. The new debt instrument should be initially recorded at fair value and that amount should be used to determine the debt extinguishment gain or loss to be recognized. Fair value should be determined by the present value of the future cash flows to be paid under the terms of the new debt instrument discounted at a rate commensurate with the risks of the debt instrument and time value of money. If it is determined that the original and new debt instruments are not substantially different, then a new effective interest rate is to be determined based on the carrying amount of the original debt instrument and the revised cash flows.
Based on the analysis performed, the Company concluded that the instruments were not substantially different and accordingly the old instrument was not derecognized.
Under US GAAP, the Company applied the guidance in ASC No. 470-50-40, “Debt Modification and Extinguishments” (ASC No. 470-50-40) to determine whether the debt instrument was modified or extinguished. This guidance considers the accounting for a modification of debt terms (or exchange in debt instruments) when a change in the fair value of an embedded conversion option has occurred or an embedded conversion option has been added or eliminated from the debt instrument.

31. Differences between Argentine GAAP and US GAAP (continued)
I- Differences in measurement methods (continued)
u) Debtor’s accounting for a modification of APSA convertible debt instruments (continued)
ASC No. 460-50-40 stipulates that, in evaluating whether a convertible debt instrument has been modified or extinguished, three aspects of the modification (or exchange of debt instruments) must be considered.

| 1. Change in cash flows: If the change in cash flows as prescribed by the analysis under Issue 96-19 is greater than 10% of the carrying value of the original debt instrument, the modification (or exchange of debt instruments) should be accounted for as an extinguishment. This test would not include any changes in fair value to the embedded conversion option.

| 2. Change in fair value of the embedded conversion option: If the change in the fair value of the embedded conversion option is greater than 10% of the carrying value of the original debt instrument immediately before the change (or exchange of debt instruments), the modification (or exchange) should be accounted for as an extinguishment.

| 3. Addition or removal of an embedded conversion option: The addition or removal of a substantive conversion option would automatically result in extinguishment accounting. Whether an embedded conversion option is substantive would be assessed as of the modification date and would be based on the definition of substantive in ASC No. 470-20.

Any one of the three criteria needs to be met to account for the modification of the debt instrument (or exchange of debt instruments) as an extinguishment. When the result of the three-pronged evaluation above results in a conclusion that a convertible debt instrument has been modified (and not extinguished), the Task Force affirmed as a final consensus that any increase in the fair value of the embedded conversion option should reduce the carrying value of the debt instrument (with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in capital), but any decrease in the fair value of the embedded conversion option is ignored.
Based on the analysis performed, neither of criteria 1, 2 or 3 above were met. Accordingly, the change of the debt instrument was not accounted for as an extinguishment. Thus, the increase in the fair value of the conversion option reduced the carrying value of the debt instrument with a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital. This resulted in an increase in interest expense prospectively, amounting to nil, Ps. 0.5 million and Ps. 0.2 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
v) Revenue recognition

| v.1) Deferred commissions

Under Argentine GAAP, lease commissions earned are recognized at the time a transaction is successfully completed. A transaction is considered successfully concluded when both parties have signed the related lease contract. Under US GAAP, lease commissions are deferred and amortized to income over the term of the respective leases. The US GAAP adjustment amounts to a loss of Ps. 9.0 million, Ps. 10.4 million and Ps. 3.2 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

| v.2) Scheduled rent increases

Under Argentine GAAP, revenue from “non-cancelable” leases subject to rent escalation clauses is recognized when the escalated payment is due rather than recognizing the effects of the scheduled rent increases under the straight-line method over the lease term. Under US GAAP, the Company applied the provisions of ASC No. 840, “Leases”, (“ASC No. 840”), and accordingly recognized escalated rental revenue under the straight-line method over the term of the leases.
In the determination of the US GAAP adjustment, the Company considered the definition of a lease term in ASC No. 840. All lease agreements are cancelable pursuant to Law 23,091 as amended by Law 24,808. This law provides that after an initial six-month period tenants may rescind commercial lease agreements upon 60 days written notice by incurring non-significant monetary penalties (cancellations are subject to one-and-a-half month’s rent if rescinded during the first year of the lease and one month’s rent if rescinded after the first year of the lease).

31. Differences between Argentine GAAP and US GAAP (continued)
I- Differences in measurement methods (continued)
v) Revenue recognition (continued)
ASC No. 840 provides that a lease that is cancelable (a) only upon the occurrence of some remote contingency, (b) only with the permission of the lessor, (c) only if the lessee enters into a new lease with the same lessor or (d) only if the lessee incurs a penalty in such amount that continuation of the lease appears, at inception, reasonably assured, shall be considered "noncancelable" for purposes of this definition.
Based on the provisions of ASC No. 840, the Company concluded that, even though the lease are cancelable, lessees would incur significant "economic penalties" if these agreements were to be rescinded prior to maturity. The Company considered that these economic penalties are of such an amount that continuation of the lease agreements by lessees appear to be reasonably assured at the inception of the respective agreements.
The Company reached this conclusion based on the factors mentioned in ASC No. 840, including (i) the offices and shopping centers’ geographical location and accessibility; (ii) the nature and tenure of tenants, (iii) limited availability of identical space in certain neighborhoods; (iv) the tenants’ brand image and other competitive considerations; (v) tenants' significant expenses in renovation, maintenance and improvements.
The Company believes that all of the above mentioned factors represent significant non-contractual penalties for the lessees which support the Company’s view that it is reasonably assured at the inception of lease agreements that such leases will not be rescinded prior to maturity even though they are cancelable as permitted by law.
The US GAAP adjustment amounts to a gain of Ps. 26.5 million, Ps. 15.0 million and Ps. 17.0 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

| v.3) Deferred insurance and origination fees

Under Argentine GAAP, the Company, through its investments in Tarshop, accounted for revenues from life and disability insurance and origination fees related to credit card and personal loans receivables on an up-front basis. Under US GAAP, revenue from life and disability insurance and origination fees is recognized to income on a straight line basis over the term of the respective underlying receivables. APSA sold an 80% in Tarshop on September 13, 2010, and deconsolidated the subsidiary as of that date. As from September 13, 2010, APSA maintains a 20% interest in Tarshop and accounts for its investment under the equity method of accounting. Therefore, there is no longer a US GAAP adjustment to equity for this item as of June 30, 2011 and 2012. The US GAAP adjustment to income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 related to the deferral of these revenues through the date Tarshop was deconsolidated with APSA. Any US GAAP adjustment related to this item is included in the determination of the equity investment in Tarshop.
w) Non-controlling interest
Effective July 1, 2009, the Company applies the provisions of ASC 810 “Consolidation”. Pursuant to ASC 810-10-45-15, non-controlling interest is (i) reported as part of equity of the consolidated group; (ii) recorded separately from the parent´s interests; and (iii) clearly identified and labeled to distinguish it from other components of the parent´s equity. The Company has non-controlling interests in more than one subsidiary. The Company determined that all of its non-controlling interests should be reclassified to equity. This reclassification has been made retroactively for all periods presented.
The adjustment represents the effect of the foregoing US GAAP adjustments on the non-controlling interests under Argentine GAAP.
As described in Note 31.I.(c) above, the Company modified the amounts disclosed in previous years.

x) | Amortization of fees related to Series II of APSA Non Convertible Notes

Under Argentine GAAP, fees and expenses relating to the Series II of APSA Non-Convertible Notes are amortized on a straight-line method over the term of the agreement. Under US GAAP, following ASC No. 310-20 “Receivables – Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs” (“ASC 310-20”), such costs are amortized over the same period but using the effective interest method. The US GAAP adjustments amount to a loss of Ps. 0.05 million, Ps. 0.1 million and Ps. 0.1 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

y) Recognition of put option
In July 2008, the Company acquired a 30% in Metropolitan. This transaction included a put right exercisable through July 2011 to sell 50% of the equity interest acquired for a price equal to the original amount paid plus interest. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company recorded the put option at fair value and adjusted it on a monthly basis with fair value increases or decreases against income. Under US GAAP, the Company determined that the terms of the put option did not meet the definition of a derivative financial instrument for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. Accordingly, the value of the put option was derecognized under US GAAP in this fiscal year.
According to ASC No. 815, “Derivatives and Hedgings” (ASC No. 815), a financial instrument is a derivative financial instrument if it meets all three of the following characteristics must be met:
a. It has (i) one or more underlyings and (ii) one or more notional amounts or payment provisions or both.
b. It requires no initial net investment or an initial net investment that is smaller than would be required for other types of contracts that would be expected to have a similar response to changes in market factors.
c. Its terms require or permit net settlement, it can readily be settled net by a means outside the contract, or it provides for delivery of an asset that puts the recipient in a position not substantially different from the net settlement.
ASC No. 815 provides that a contract fits the description of net settlement if its settlement provisions meet one of the following criteria: (a) neither party is required to deliver an asset that is associated with the underlying and that has a principal amount, stated amount, face value, number of shares, or other denomination that is equal to the notional amount (or the notional amount plus a premium or minus a discount); (b) one of the parties is required to deliver an asset of the type described in the guidance but there is a market mechanism that facilitates net settlement; (c) one of the parties is required to deliver an asset of the type described in the guidance, but that asset is readily convertible to cash or is itself a derivative instrument.
As of June 30, 2010 characteristics a. and b. were met since underlying is the quantity of shares to sell under the put option agreement and there was no initial net investment; however characteristic c. was not met since the Company was required to deliver an asset of the type described in the guidance but there is no market mechanism that facilitates net settlement nor the asset is readily convertible to cash or is itself a derivative instrument because shares of Metropolitan 885 Third Avenue LLC are not traded on public markets.
As of June 30, 2010, the fair value of the put option amounted to Ps. 48.5 million under Argentine GAAP. Due to foreign currency translation procedures a cumulative translation adjustment (“CTA”) of Ps. 3.6 million was also generated for the recognition of the put option.
As part of the reorganization of Metropolitan, on December 30, 2010 the put option was surrendered and used as consideration for the increased interest of the emerging entity New Lipstick LLC. The US GAAP adjustment for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 represents a gain due to the recognition at fair value of the put option as the put option was settled at the date of the reorganization. The US GAAP adjustment for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, represents the reversal of the recognition at fair value of the put option under Argentine GAAP.
z) Accounting for investment in Hersha Hospitality Trust and TGLT
Hersha Hospitality Trust
IRSA held a 9.13% and 12.1% interest in Hersha Hospitality Trust as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Under Argentine GAAP, this investment has been valued at cost. Under US GAAP, since the investment in Hersha Hospitality Trust represents an investment in an equity security with a readily determinable fair value and not held for trading, the investment has been valued at fair value in accordance with ASC No. 320. Gains or losses resulting from changes in fair value are recognized in other comprehensive income in the shareholders equity.

| The cost and estimated fair values of Hersha Hospitality Trust as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows:

| TGLT

Under Argentine GAAP, the Company held a 9.25% and 8.88% interest in TGLT as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and accounted for this investment at acquisition cost since it is not held for trading. TGLT is a public company in Argentina whose shares are traded in the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange. Under US GAAP, the investment in TGLT represents an investment in equity securities with readily determinable fair value and not held for trading. Accordingly, under US GAAP, the Company also applies ASC No. 320 and accounts for this investment at fair value with unrealized gains or losses excluded from income and reported separately in shareholders’ equity.
The cost and estimated fair value of TGLT as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows:

|  | Amortized Cost Basis |  |  | Fair Value |  |  | Gross unrealized gain |
June 30, 2012 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
TGLT |  |  | 59,031 |  |  |  | 65,131 |  |  |  | 6,100 |
|  |  | 59,031 |  |  |  | 65,131 |  |  |  | 6,100 |
June 30, 2011 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
TGLT |  |  | 56,381 |  |  |  | 68,636 |  |  |  | 12,255 |
|  |  | 56,381 |  |  |  | 68,636 |  |  |  | 12,255 |

| aa) Differences in basis relating to purchase accounting

Effective July 1, 2009, the Company applied the provisions of FASB Statement No. 141R “Business Combinations” (FAS 141R) or ASC No. 805 “Business Combinations” (“ASC No. 805”), for all business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of its fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, i.e. July 1, 2009. For all business combinations for which its acquisition date was prior to July 1, 2009, the Company applied the provisions of FAS 141.
Acquisition of Arcos del Gourmet
On November 27, 2009, the Company completed the acquisition of an 80% controlling interest in Arcos. Arcos is a company holder of a concession right to exploit the land and attached assets owned by the ONABE. The concession is for an initial term of sixteen years renewable at the option of the holder for an additional four year period. Under the concession, the Company is obligated to pay a monthly concession fee to ONABE. The land and attached assets (mainly old warehouses and adjacent spaces) are capable of being reconverted into a shopping mall, cultural complex and other recreational facilities after incurring significant capital expenditures. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company determined that the transaction represented the acquisition of a business. Accordingly, the Company accounted for the acquisition under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the Company allocated the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed based

on the respective fair values. Transaction costs are considered part of the consideration transferred. The acquisition date fair value of the net assets acquired exceeded the cost of the acquisition. The holders of the rights from ONABE were individual persons who did not have the financial feasibility, expertise and scale to obtain the projected returns from the concessioned assets as well-established real estate market participants in the arca have. Thus, they agreed to sell their rights to the Company for a fair amount of consideration although far below the fair value of the business. Under Argentine GAAP, the excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired over cost represents negative goodwill. When there is negative goodwill, Argentine GAAP requires a reassessment to determine all assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred. The Company performed a reassessment and has still concluded that it has negative goodwill. However, under Argentine GAAP, when negative goodwill exists, acquired intangible assets are reduced to absorb the negative goodwill even if they are assigned a zero value. Any remaining negative goodwill is accounted for as described in Note 3.f). In the acquisition of Arcos, the principal asset acquired was the concession right and since negative goodwill existed, this intangible was reduced by the amount of negative goodwill absorbing it completely. Therefore, no negative goodwill remained under Argentine GAAP. In addition, under Argentine GAAP, the minority interest was recognized at the proportionate share of the acquiree´s identifiable net assets (the proportionate share method) at the acquisition date.
Under US GAAP, the Company applied the provisions of ASC No. 805 and also determined that this transaction qualifies as a business acquisition. Accordingly, the Company accounted for the acquisition under the purchase method of accounting and allocated the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed based on the respective fair values. Under ASC No. 805, the non-controlling interest is recognized at fair value at the date of acquisition. Under ASC No. 805, any excess of the value assigned to the net identifiable assets acquired over the fair value of the consideration transferred and any previously held equity interest in the acquiree and any non-controlling interest is a bargain purchase gain and should be recognized in earnings. Acquisition-related costs are considered separate transactions and should not be included as part of the consideration transferred, but rather expensed as incurred.
As a result of the above explanation, the US GAAP adjustment as of June 30, 2010 for the acquisition of Arcos represents the net effect of (i) the recognition of a bargain purchase gain of Ps. 58.8 million; (ii) the recognition of the non-controlling interest at fair value for Ps. 12.1 million; and (iii) the charge expense of transaction costs for Ps. 0.4 million.
Pro forma results as if the acquisition had occurred as of the beginning of the comparative fiscal year have not been presented based on materiality grounds.
For disclosure purposes, under US GAAP the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are summarized as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents acquired |  |  | 13 |
Fair value of non-cash assets acquired |  |  | 103,120 |
Fair value of liabilities assumed |  |  | (8,124 | )
Fair value of net assets acquired |  |  | 95,009 |
Non-controlling interest |  |  | (12,077 | )

Purchase price |  |  | 24,108 |
Seller financing |  |  | (14,213 | )
Cash and cash equivalents acquired |  |  | (13 | )
Advance payments |  |  | (2,254 | )
Net cash paid for the acquisition |  |  | 7,628 |

transaction represented the acquisition of a business, and accordingly, the Company accounted for the acquisition under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the Company allocated the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed based on the respective fair values. Transaction costs are considered part of the consideration transferred. The acquisition date fair value of the net assets acquired exceeded the cost of the acquisition. Under Argentine GAAP, the excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired over cost represents negative goodwill. When there is negative goodwill, Argentine GAAP requires a reassessment to determine all assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred. The Company performed a reassessment and has still concluded that it has negative goodwill. However, under Argentine GAAP, when negative goodwill exists, acquired intangible assets are reduced to absorb the negative goodwill even if they are then assigned a zero value. Any remaining negative goodwill is accounted for as described in Note 3.f).

Accordingly, the Company accounted for the acquisition under the purchase method of accounting and allocated the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed based on the respective fair values. Under ASC No. 805, any excess of the value assigned to the net identifiable assets acquired over the fair value of the consideration transferred and any previously held equity interest in the acquiree and any non-controlling interest is a bargain purchase gain and should be recognized in earnings. Acquisition-related costs are considered separate transactions and should not be included as part of the consideration transferred, but rather expensed as incurred.
As a result of the above explanation, the US GAAP adjustment as of June 30, 2011 for the acquisition of Soleil represents the net effect of (i) the charge expense of transaction costs for Ps. 2.8 million, (ii) the recognition of a bargain purchase gain of Ps. 18.5 million and (iii) the charge expense of amortization for Ps. 4.1 million. This bargain purchase gain arose due to the underperformance and undermanagement of the underlying "Soleil" shopping center business. Additionally, the purchase price was negotiated between the parties when a preliminary agreement was signed in December 2007, and was not subsequently modified. Since December 2007, there were periods on inflation in Argentina, generating a higher fair value of Soleil´s net assets at the date of acquisition. This increase in the fair value of net assets acquired without a corresponding increase in the purchase price, also generated this bargain purchase gain.
For disclosure purposes, under US GAAP the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are summarized as follows:

Fair value of non-cash assets acquired (i) |  |  | 81,093 |
Fair value of liabilities assumed |  |  | (1,108 | )
Fair value of net assets acquired |  |  | 79,985 |
Purchase price |  |  | 61,486 |
Seller financing |  |  | (33,403 | )
Advance payments (ii) |  |  | (28,083 | )
Net cash paid for the acquisition |  |  | - |

(i) | Corresponds to fixed assets of Ps. 67.0 million, intangible assets of Ps. 3.1 million, air space of Ps. 6.7 million and deferred income assets of Ps. 4.3 million.
(ii) | Amount paid in 2007 when preliminary agreement was signed between INCSA and the Company.

In the period from acquisition to June 30, 2011, Soleil contributed revenues of Ps. 22.1 million and net income of Ps. 9.6 million to the Company’s consolidated results. If Soleil had been acquired on July 1, 2009, combined revenues of the Company would have been Ps. 1,026.6 million (unaudited) and net income would have been Ps. 231.0 million (unaudited) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. These amounts have been calculated using the Company’s accounting policies and by adjusting the results of Soleil to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization, as appropriate, that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to net assets acquired had been applied from July 1, 2009, together with its consequential tax effects.

Acquisition of BrasilAgro
On October 20, 2010 the Company acquired from Tarpon 9,581,750 shares of common stock of BrasilAgro, representing 16.40% of the outstanding stock and 64,000 warrants from the First Issue and 64,000 warrants from the Second Issue.
As mentioned in Note 2.b), Cresud is owner of 23,160,450 shares or 39.64% of BrasilAgro’s outstanding stock as of June 30, 2012.
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company determined that the transaction represented the acquisition of a business and accordingly, the Company accounted for the acquisition under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the Company allocated the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed based on the respective fair values. Transaction costs are immaterial and have not been considered part of the consideration transferred. The acquisition date fair value of the net assets acquired exceeded the cost of the acquisition. Under Argentine GAAP, the excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired over cost represents negative goodwill. When there is negative goodwill, Argentine GAAP requires a reassessment to determine all assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred. The Company performed a reassessment and has still concluded that it has negative goodwill. However, under Argentine GAAP, when negative goodwill exists, acquired intangible assets are reduced to absorb the negative goodwill even if they are then assigned a zero value. Any remaining negative goodwill is accounted for as described in Note 3.f). In addition, under Argentine GAAP, the minority interest was recognized at the proportionate share of the acquiree´s indentifiable net assets (the proportionate share method) at the acquisition date.
Under US GAAP, the Company applied the provisions of ASC No. 805 and also determined that this transaction qualifies as a business acquisition. Accordingly, the Company accounted for the acquisition under the purchase method of accounting and allocated the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed based on the respective fair values. Under ASC No. 805, any excess of the value assigned to the net identifiable assets acquired over the fair value of the consideration transferred and any previously held equity interest in the acquiree and any non-controlling interest is a bargain purchase gain and should be recognized in earnings. Acquisition-related costs are considered separate transactions and should not be included as part of the consideration transferred, but rather expensed as incurred.
As a result of the above explanation, the US GAAP adjustment as of June 30, 2011 for the acquisition of BrasilAgro represents the net effect of (i) the recognition of a bargain purchase gain of Ps. 72.9 million and (ii) the recognition of the non-controlling interest at fair value for Ps. 354.8 million, (iii) the gain from the re-measurement of the previously held interest at fair value of Ps. 162.4 million, and (iv) reversion of the amortization of negative goodwill and higher values under Argentine GAAP for Ps. (6.9) million.
In the period from acquisition to June 30, 2011, BrasilAgro contributed revenues of Ps. 210.9 million and net income of Ps. 23.1 million to the Company’s consolidated results. If BrasilAgro had been acquired on July 1, 2010, combined revenues of the Company would have been Ps. 2,380.9 million (unaudited) and net income would have been Ps. 998.8 million (unaudited) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011. If BrasilAgro had been acquired on July 1, 2009, combined revenues of the Company would have been Ps. 1,748.6 million (unaudited) and net income would have been Ps. 419.1 million (unaudited) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. These amounts have been calculated using the Company’s accounting policies and by adjusting the results of BrasilAgro to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization, as appropriate, that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to net assets acquired had been applied from July 1, 2009 or 2010, as applicable, together with its consequential tax effects.
For disclosure purposes, under US GAAP the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are summarized as follows (in thousands):

As of June 30, 2012 the adjustment represents the reversal of the amortization of negative goodwill and higher values recognized under Argentine GAAP for Ps. 16.3 million;
Subsequent to June 30, 2011, BrasilAgro sold to third parties certain of its assets (i.e. primarily farmlands). The gain on the sale of these assets was determined by comparison between their cost basis to the Company and the consideration received. These assets had a different cost basis between Argentine GAAP and US GAAP on the Company’s books, resulting in a higher cost basis under US GAAP. Consequently, the reconciling item also includes the adjustment to account a loss to Ps. 26.8 million under US GAAP.
Acquisition of Apsamedia shares
On January 13, 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of an additional 50% interest in Apsamedia. As from that date, Apsamedia becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company determined that the transaction represented the acquisition of a business. Accordingly, the Company accounted for the acquisition under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the Company allocated the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed based on the respective fair values. Transaction costs are considered part of the consideration transferred. The acquisition date fair value of the net assets acquired exceeded the cost of the acquisition. Under Argentine GAAP, the excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired over cost represents negative goodwill. When there is negative goodwill, Argentine GAAP requires a reassessment to determine all assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration transferred. The Company performed a reassessment and has still concluded that it has negative goodwill. However, under Argentine GAAP, when negative goodwill exists, acquired intangible assets are reduced to absorb the negative goodwill even if they are assigned a zero value. Any remaining negative goodwill is accounted for as described in Note 3.f).
Under US GAAP, the Company applied the provisions of ASC No. 805 and also determined that this transaction qualifies as a business acquisition. Accordingly, the Company accounted for the acquisition under the purchase method of accounting and allocated the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities assumed based on the respective fair values. Under ASC No. 805, the acquirer’s previously held equity interest is remeasured to fair value at the date the controlling interest is acquired. Any difference between the carrying value and the fair value of the previously held equity interest is recognized as a gain or loss in the statement of income. Under ASC No. 805, any excess of the value assigned to the net identifiable assets acquired over the fair value of the consideration transferred and any previously held equity interest in the acquiree and any non-controlling interest is a bargain purchase gain and should be recognized in earnings. Acquisition-related costs are considered separate transactions and should not be included as part of the consideration transferred, but rather expensed as incurred. There were no significant transaction costs as part of the transaction.
As a result of the above explanation, the US GAAP adjustment as of June 30, 2011 for the acquisition of Apsamedia represents the effect of (i) the recognition of a bargain purchase gain of Ps. 2.4 million and (ii) the gain from the re-measurement of the previously held interest at fair value of Ps. 7.6 million.
For disclosure purposes, under US GAAP the estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are summarized as follows:

In the period from acquisition to June 30, 2011, Apsamedia contributed revenues of Ps. 4.8 million and net income of Ps. 0.5 million to the Company’s consolidated results. If Apsamedia had been acquired on July 1, 2010, combined revenues of the Company would have been Ps. 1,168.8 million (unaudited) and net income would have been 288.4 million (unaudited) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011. If Apsamedia had been acquired on July 1, 2009, combined revenues of the Company would have been Ps. 1,031.8 million (unaudited) and net income would have been 220.4 million (unaudited) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. These amounts have been calculated using the Company’s accounting policies and by adjusting the results of Apsamedia to reflect the additional depreciation and amortization, as appropriate, that would have been charged assuming the fair value adjustments to net assets acquired had been applied from July 1, 2009 or 2010, as applicable, together with its consequential tax effects.
Treatment of goodwill
Effectively July 1, 2002, the Company does not amortize goodwill under US GAAP. ASC No. 350 requires the Company to periodically test for goodwill impairment, at least annually, or sooner if evidence of possible impairment arises. The Company performs its annual impairment testing as of June 30, using a two-step process that begins with an estimation of the fair values of the reporting units that have goodwill.
Step 1 of impairment testing consists of determining and comparing the fair value of a reporting unit to the carrying value of the reporting unit. If step 1 is failed for a reporting unit, indicating a potential impairment, the Company is required to complete step 2, which is a more detailed test to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill, and compare that value to the carrying value of the goodwill. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is required to be recorded.
The Company performed Step 1 of the goodwill impairment testing as of the end of its fiscal year June 30, 2010. The Step 1 tests indicated that the fair value of the reporting units -calculated primarily using discounted expected future cash flows- exceeded their carrying values as of that date. Accordingly, Step 2 of the goodwill impairment testing was not required and no impairment charges were necessary. There were no impairment indicators present as of June 30, 2011 and 2012, and therefore, no test was performed as of that date.
As a result of the explanation on this note, the US GAAP reconciling item represents the net effect of the followings adjustments:

ab) Acquisition of non-controlling interest

1. | Acquisition of non-controlling interest in IRSA

During fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company acquired an additional minority interest in IRSA of 6.5% and 0.22% for US$ 35.0 million and US$ 1.6 million, respectively. Under Argentine GAAP, the difference between the consideration paid and the carrying value of the minority interest acquired was treated as negative goodwill and amortized to income over a period of 20 years.
Under US GAAP, the Company applied the principles of ASC No. 810 “Consolidation” in accounting for changes in ownership interests. As per ASC No. 810-10-65, when an additional interest is obtained and control is maintained, the transaction is accounted for as an equity transaction. The Company does not recognize any additional acquisition adjustments to reflect the subsequent purchase of additional shares in the subsidiary if there is no change in control. Since under Argentine GAAP there were no additional acquisition adjustments recognized, there is no US GAAP adjustment in this regard. However, under US GAAP, the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the related carrying value of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognized in the controlling interest´s equity as a credit or debit to additional paid in capital. Therefore, no gain or loss is recognized in the statement of income and the carrying value of the non-controlling interest is reclassified from non-controlling interest to controlling interest´s equity.
In addition, under Argentine GAAP, negative goodwill is being amortized under the straight-line method over a period of 20 years. Consequently, the US GAAP adjustment also reflects the reversal of the amortization of negative goodwill under Argentine GAAP.
2. Acquisition of non-controlling interest in Cactus
During fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 the Company acquired an additional minority interest in Cactus of 20% for US$ 1.4 million. Under Argentine GAAP, the difference between the consideration paid and the carrying value of the minority interest acquired was treated as goodwill. The goodwill generated in this transaction was impaired as of June 30, 2012.
Under US GAAP, the Company applied the principles of ASC No. 810 “Consolidation” in accounting for changes in ownership interests. As per ASC No. 810-10-65, when an additional interest is obtained and control is maintained, the transaction is accounted for as an equity transaction. The Company does not recognize any additional acquisition adjustments to reflect the subsequent purchase of additional shares in the subsidiary if there is no change in control. Since under Argentine GAAP there were no additional acquisition adjustments recognized, there is no US GAAP adjustment in this regard. However, under US GAAP, the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the related carrying value of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognized in the controlling interest´s equity as a credit or debit to additional paid in capital. Therefore, no gain or loss is recognized in the statement of income and the carrying value of the non-controlling interest is reclassified from non-controlling interest to controlling interest´s equity.
Additionally, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, the Company reversed the impairment charge on goodwill generated by the acquisition of the non-controlling interest in Cactus recognized under Argentine GAAP for an amount of Ps. 10.5 million.
3. Acquisition of non-controlling interest in Jaborandí
During fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 the Company acquired an additional minority interest in Jaborandí of 49% for Ps. 48.1 million paying a sum higher than the net assets acquired in order to own the whole of the Company. Under Argentine GAAP, the difference between the consideration paid and the carrying value of the minority interest acquired was treated as goodwill.
Under US GAAP, the Company applied the principles of ASC No. 810 “Consolidation” in accounting for changes in ownership interests. As per ASC No. 810-10-65, when an additional interest is obtained and control is

maintained, the transaction is accounted for as an equity transaction. The Company does not recognize any additional acquisition adjustments to reflect the subsequent purchase of additional shares in the subsidiary if there is no change in control. Since under Argentine GAAP there were no additional acquisition adjustments recognized, there is no US GAAP adjustment in this regard. However, under US GAAP, the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the related carrying value of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognized in the controlling interest´s equity as a credit or debit to additional paid in capital. Therefore, no gain or loss is recognized in the statement of income and the carrying value of the non-controlling interest is reclassified from non-controlling interest to controlling interest´s equity.
4. Acquisition of non-controlling interest in APSA
On October 15, 2010, IRSA’s Board of Directors resolved to exercise the option for the acquisition of the 29.55% minority interest in APSA held by PASA, cancelling the outstanding amount of US$ 120.0 million and thus increasing IRSA’s interest in APSA to 94.89% as of June 30, 2011 (the “APSA Acquisition”). During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, E-Commerce acquired through successive purchases 44,232 shares of APSA, for a total amount of Ps. 0.7 million, which represents a 0.035% of APSA’s capital stock. After such acquisitions, the direct and indirect interest of the Company in APSA amounts to 95.61% as of June 30, 2012.
Under Argentine GAAP, IRSA accounted for the APSA Acquisition under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price paid is allocated to the net assets acquired based on its fair value. Assets, including goodwill, and liabilities of the acquired business are recognized using a cost accumulation approach (i.e. for the previous equity interests acquired). Any outstanding minority interest is recorded at its carrying amount.
The APSA Acquisition in 2011 generated negative goodwill since the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired exceeded the cost of acquisition.
Under Argentine GAAP, when negative goodwill exists, any identifiable acquired intangible assets are not recognized. Negative goodwill is recognized as follows, as appropriate in the circumstances: (i) the portion of negative goodwill associated with future expected losses is recognized in income as losses are incurred; and/or (ii) the amount of negative goodwill exceeding the amount represented by the interest acquired over the non-monetary assets is recognized in income at acquisition date; and/or (iii) the amount of negative goodwill not exceeding the amount represented by the interest acquired over the non-monetary assets is deferred and amortized to income under the straight line method over the weighted average useful lives of the identifiable net assets of the acquired company, not in excess of 20 years. Consequently, under Argentine GAAP, intangible assets were assigned a zero value and negative goodwill was recognized and amortized under the straight-line method over the weighted average useful lives of the identifiable net assets of APSA.
Under US GAAP, IRSA applied the principles of ASC No. 810 “Consolidation” in accounting for changes in ownership interests. As per ASC No. 810-10-65, when an additional interest is obtained and control is maintained, the transaction is accounted for as an equity transaction. IRSA does not recognize any additional acquisition adjustments to reflect the subsequent purchase of additional shares in the subsidiary if there is no change in control.
Under US GAAP, the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the related carrying value of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognized in the controlling interest´s equity as a credit to additional paid in capital. Therefore, no gain or loss is recognized in the statement of income and the carrying value of the non-controlling interest is adjusted to reflect the change in the non-controlling ownership interest in APSA, amounting to Ps. 290.6 and Ps. 290.2 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
As a result of the above explanation, the US GAAP net income adjustment for the APSA Acquisition, amounting to Ps. 1.8 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, represents the net effect of (i) reversing the amortization of negative goodwill recorded under Argentine GAAP; and (ii) lower depreciation charges on lower carrying amounts of fixed assets under US GAAP. The US GAAP equity adjustment includes the above item and the recognition of an additional paid in capital under US GAAP of Ps. 207.9 million in shareholders’ equity.

I- Differences in measurement methods (continued)
ab) Acquisition of non-controlling interest (continued)
In addition, under Argentine GAAP, negative goodwill is being amortized under the straight-line method over a period of 20 years. Consequently, the US GAAP adjustment also reflects the reversal of the amortization of negative goodwill under Argentine GAAP.
5. Acquisition of non-controlling interest in Arcos del Gourmet
During the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company acquired an additional participation in Arcos del Gourmet.
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company accounted the acquisition of the non-controlling interests under the purchase method of accounting. Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price paid is allocated to the net assets acquired based on its fair value. Assets, including goodwill, and liabilities of the acquired business are recognized using a cost accumulation approach (i.e. for the previous equity interests acquired). These acquisitions generated goodwill since the cost of acquisition exceeded the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired.
Under US GAAP, the Company applied the principles of ASC-810-10-45 in accounting for changes in ownership interests. As per ASC 810-10-45, when an additional interest is obtained and control is maintained, the transaction is accounted for as an equity transaction. The Company does not recognize any additional acquisition adjustments to reflect the subsequent purchase of additional shares in the subsidiary if there is no change in control.
Under US GAAP, the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the related carrying value of the non-controlling interest acquired is recognized in the controlling interest’s equity as a credit or debit to share premium. Therefore, no gain or loss is recognized in the statement of income and no additional goodwill is recognized. The carrying value of the non-controlling interest is adjusted to reflect the change in the non-controlling interest’s ownership interest in the subsidiary.
Consequently, as of June 30, 2012, the Company: (i) derecognized goodwill for Ps. 5.7 million, (ii) recognized a decrease in non-controlling interest for an amount of Ps. 3.3 million and (iii) derecognized net assets for Ps. 9.0 million, and (iv) recognized a debit of Ps. 11.4 million against equity. Under Argentine GAAP there were no amortization or depreciation of net assets recognized thus, there was no adjustment on reconciliation of net income.
ac) Disposal of business
Disposal of equity interest in Tarshop
On September 13, 2010, APSA completed the disposal of an 80% controlling interest in Tarshop to BHSA, a related party to the Company. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company (i) derecognized the assets and liabilities at their carrying amounts at the date control was lost; (ii) recognized the fair value of the consideration received; (iii) recognized the non-controlling investment retained under the equity method at the date control was lost and (iv) recognized the resulting difference as a loss on the sale in the statement of income. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company derecognized, as of June 30, 2011, net assets of Ps. 149.1 million, recognized a non-controlling investment of Ps. 28.9 million and recognized a loss on the sale of Tarshop of Ps. 13.9 million in the statement of income.
Under US GAAP, the Company applied the provisions of ASC No. 810. Under ASC No. 810, the loss of control in subsidiary results in the recognition of a gain or loss on the sale of the interest sold and on the revaluation of any retained non-controlling investment. A loss of control is an economic event, similar to that of gaining control, and, therefore, is a remeasurement event. As a result, under US GAAP, the Company (i) derecognized the assets and liabilities of Tarshop at their carrying amounts at the date control was lost (including associated goodwill); (ii) recognized the fair value of the consideration received; (iii) recognized the non-controlling investment retained at its fair value at the date control was lost and (iv) recognized the resulting difference as gain or loss in income

attributable to the Company. The resulting gain or loss is calculated as the difference between (1) the aggregate of (a) the fair value of the consideration received and (b) the fair value of the non-controlling investment retained in the former subsidiary on the date the subsidiary is deconsolidated; and (2) the carrying amount of the former subsidiary´s net assets. Under US GAAP, as of June 30, 2011 the Company derecognized net assets of Ps. 96.5 million, recognized a non-controlling investment of Ps. 19.1 million and determined a gain of Ps. 28.8 million. Under US GAAP, this resulting gain relates to both the interest sold and the non-controlling investment retained. The loss related to the remeasurement of the non-controlling investment retained to fair value is Ps. 0.2 million.
As a result of the above explanation, the US GAAP adjustments represent the difference between the Argentine GAAP loss on the sale and the US GAAP aggregate gain on the interest sold and non-controlling investment retained.
Disposal of Apsamedia’s business
On January 13, 2011, APSA completed the disposal of Apsamedia’s credit portfolio to Tarshop. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company as of June 30, 2011 (i) derecognized the assets at their carrying amounts at the date of disposal; (ii) recognized the fair value of the consideration received; and (iii) recognized the resulting difference as a gain on the sale in the statement of income. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company derecognized net assets of Ps. 22.2 million, and recognized a gain on the sale of Apsamedia’s credit portfolio of Ps. 15.2 million in the statement of income.
Under US GAAP, the Company applies the provisions of ASC No. 810 and determined that this transaction qualifies as the loss of control of a group of assets that constitutes a business. As a result, under US GAAP, the Company (i) derecognized the assets at their carrying amounts at the date the control was lost; (ii) recognized the fair value of the consideration received; (iii) recognized the non-controlling investment retained at its fair value at the date control was lost; and (iv) recognized the resulting difference as gain or loss in income attributable to the Company. Under US GAAP, the Company derecognized net assets of Ps. 32.7 million and determined a gain of Ps. 5.3 million.
As a result of the above explanation, the US GAAP adjustment represents the difference between the Argentine GAAP and the US GAAP gain on the assets sold.
ad) Allowance for loan losses of credit card portfolio of Apsamedia
Under Argentine GAAP, the allowance for loan losses is calculated according to specific criteria. Loan loss reserves for consumer loans are based on the client’s aging.
Under US GAAP purposes, the Company has performed a migration analysis for credit cards loans of Apsamedia following the ASC 450-20 and historical loss ratios were determined by analyzing historical losses, in order to calculate the allowance required for smaller-balance impaired loans and unimpaired loans for US GAAP purposes. Loss estimates are analyzed by loan type and thus for homogeneous groups of clients. Such historical ratios were updated to incorporate the most recent data reflecting current economic conditions, industry performance trends, geographic or obligor concentrations within each portfolio segment, and any other pertinent information that may affect the estimation of the allowance for loan losses.
As a result of the analysis mentioned before, the Company recorded a gain of Ps. 1.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 and a loss of Ps. 2.1 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011. No loss or gain was recognized under US GAAP for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.

ae) Disposal of non-controlling interest in Jaborandí
During fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 the Company sold a minority interest in Jaborandí of 25%. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company accounted for disposals of minority interests based on its carrying value at the date of disposal, recognizing any difference between the carrying value of the non-controlling interest and the consideration received in the statement of income.
Under US GAAP, the Company applied the principles of ASC No. 810 “Consolidation” in accounting for changes in ownership interests. ASC 810-10 requires that changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary while the parent retains its controlling financial interest are to be accounted for as equity transactions. Therefore, the difference between the fair value of the consideration received and the related carrying value of the controlling interest disposed is recognized in the controlling interest´s equity as a credit or debit to additional paid in capital. No gain or loss is recognized in the statement of income and the carrying value of controlling interest is reclassified from controlling interest to non-controlling interest´s equity.
As a result, as of June 30, 2012, the Company reversed a loss for an amount of Ps. 2.7 million in the statement of income, and recognized a debit of Ps. 2.7 million in shareholders’ equity.
af) Commodity linked debt
Under Argentine GAAP, there is no requirement to separate embedded derivatives from host contracts and account for them as derivatives. Borrowings are valued based on the best estimate of the discounted value of the amounts expected to be paid, using the interest rate effective at the time of the initial measurement.
US GAAP requires that an embedded derivative should be separated from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative if certain conditions are met. On September 7, 2011, the Company issued Class VII non-convertible notes which are denominated in US$ for a nominal amount of US$ 2.1 million. Class VII notes accrue interest at a floor rate of 4% plus a premium factor equivalent to 40% of the increase in the price of soy during the period from March 2011 to March 2013. Under US GAAP, the commodity-indexed feature is an embedded derivative that is not clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument because the risks inherent in the derivative (price of soy) and the host are dissimilar. Therefore, the Company separated the commodity-indexed feature and classified it as a derivative liability. The Company measured the carrying value of the debt host contract at initial recognition as the difference between the consideration received and the fair value of the embedded derivative. Subsequently, the Company measured the host foreign-currency debt at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method and then retranslated it at each reporting date using the closing US$/Peso exchange rate. The Company recognized changes in the fair value of the embedded derivative in profit or loss.
As a result, the Company adjusted borrowings for an amount of Ps. 0.1 million and Ps. 0.07 million as of June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012.
ag) Settlement of BrasilAgro warrants
As discussed in Note 2.f), on April 12, 2012, the Company acquired 6,321 warrants pertaining to the First Issue of BrasilAgro to Agro Investment S.A. (unrelated party to the Company) for a total consideration of US$ 0.6 million. Brasilagro's warrants acquired by Cresud are eliminated in its consolidated financial statements.
Under Argentine GAAP, payments made by the Company for the acquisition of BrasilAgro warrants were capitalized in the statement of financial position.
Under US GAAP, payments made for the acquisition of an entity's own equity are accounted as a deduction from equity in accordance with ASC 505.
As a result, the Company reversed the payments capitalized under Argentine GAAP for an amount of Ps. 2.7 million as of June 30, 2012, against a deduction in the shareholders’ equity.

I- Differences in measurement methods (continued)
ah) Impact of US GAAP adjustments on joint ventures
Under Argentine GAAP investments in entities in which the Company exercises joint control are accounted for under the proportionate consolidation method. Under the proportionate consolidation method, the financial statements of the Company reflect the Company’s pro-rata equity interest in the jointly controlled entities on a line-by-line basis. The Company applied its pro-rata equity interest to the financial statements of its jointly-controlled entities prepared under Argentine GAAP.
Under US GAAP the Company assessed all of its interests in joint arrangements and determined that they are joint ventures under ASC 323-30. Accordingly, the Company accounted for its joint ventures under the equity method of accounting. The Company has assessed the impact of US GAAP adjustments on the financial statements of joint ventures prepared under Argentine GAAP prior to the application of the equity method.
The US GAAP adjustments on the joint ventures related primary to (i) revenue recognition and schedule rent increases of the lessees where the entity is the lessor; (ii) the reversal of the present value accounting for long-term tax credits; (iii) the reversal of capitalized exchange differences and (iv) the reversal of pre-operating expenses.
Consequently, the joint venture´s equity for US GAAP purpose amounts to Ps. (15.1) million and Ps. (13.1) million as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. For the fiscal years ended as of June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, a loss of Ps. 2.1 million, Ps. 3.1 million and Ps. 2.6 million was recognized in the statement of income, respectively.
ai) Accounting for preferred shares and warrants of Supertel
As discussed in Note 3.d), under Argentine GAAP, the preferred shares and warrants of Supertel were accounted for as financial assets at fair value through profit and loss. The purchase price paid was allocated to both instruments based on their relative fair values at the date of purchase. Subsequent changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized in the income statement.
Under US GAAP, the Company applied the provisions of ASC No. 815 “Derivatives and hedging”. The warrants of Supertel were accounted as a freestanding derivative and measured at fair value. In addition, under ASC 815, an embedded derivative instrument must be separated from the host contract and accounted for separately as a derivative instrument if certain specific criteria are met. The Company evaluated the characteristics of the preferred shares and concluded that the embedded conversion feature should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a freestanding derivative. The purchase price paid was allocated first to the warrants and the embedded conversion feature based on their respective fair values while the residual was allocated to the preferred shares. Subsequent changes in the fair value of the warrants and the embedded conversion feature are recognized in the income statement. The preferred shares (i.e. host contract) are stated at cost.
Therefore, the US GAAP adjustment for an amount of Ps. 8.0 million includes: (i) the reversal of the changes in fair values of the preferred shares (i.e. host contract) recognized under Argentine GAAP, while it is stated at cost under US GAAP; and (ii) the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the embedded conversion feature under US GAAP, which was not bifurcated under Argentine GAAP.
II. Additional disclosure requirements
a) Statement of income classification differences
Should a US GAAP statement of income be presented in the Company´s consolidated financial statements, certain items shown in some line items of the statement of income under Argentine GAAP would have to be reclassified to affect other line items. The following reclassifications are intended to present Argentine GAAP numbers using a different criterion of classification under US GAAP. The numbers included below are not calculated under US GAAP.

(i) Proportionate consolidation
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company accounts for certain investments where it exercise joint control under the proportionate consolidation method.
Under US GAAP, since the Company does not exercise control over these investments, proportionate consolidation is not appropriate and the equity method of accounting is used for all periods presented as disclosed in Note 31.II.t).

| (ii) Adoption of RT No. 22 “Agricultural Activities”

Effective July 1, 2006, under Argentine GAAP, the Company applied RT No. 22 “Agricultural Activities” which established specific measurement and disclosure standards for the Company’s business. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations. There was no change in the determination of total gross profit and operating income of the Company. Rather it expanded the Company’s disclosures and changed the format of the Company’s statement of income above gross profit. RT No. 22 requires that a change in fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs of a biological asset be included in net profit or loss for the period in which it arises. In agricultural activity, a change in physical attributes of a living animal or plant directly enhances or diminishes economic benefits to the enterprise. Prior to the adoption of RT No. 22, the production income was presented as a reduction in the cost of sales of the Company. Under US GAAP, biologicalassets are measured at historical cost and, therefore, no production income is recognized in the statement of income. When these biological assets are subsequently sold the cost of sales under US GAAP is lower than the cost of sales under Argentine GAAP, as these biological assets were not previously re-measured at fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs under US GAAP. There is no difference in gross profit for the sale of biological assets between Argentine GAAP and US GAAP.
(iii) Unrealized gains or losses on inventories
Under Argentine GAAP, unrealized gains or losses on inventories are segregated and shown in a separate line within operating income. Under US GAAP, realized gains would be included as part of gross profit.
As a result of these differences in classification, gross profit under US GAAP would have been Ps. 1,215.2 million, Ps. 1,109.2 million and Ps. 974.8 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
(iv) Gross vs. net presentation
As part of the lease agreements, tenants are required to pay their proportionate share of common area maintenance expenses. The Company does not charge any mark up on reimbursable costs. These expenses are incurred and paid by the Company and then passed through to tenants as reimbursable costs.
Under Argentine GAAP, pass-through expenses, such as these reimbursable costs, are accounted for on a net basis and, as such, excluded from revenues and expenses in the consolidated financial statements. However, the total amount of expenses passed through to tenants by expense category with the corresponding offsetting amount have no impact in the consolidated costs of the Company. No amount is shown as revenues.
Under US GAAP, the Company accounts for pass-through revenue and expenses in accordance with ASC No. 605-45-15, "Statement of Income Characterization of Reimbursements Received for Out of Pocket Expenses Incurred" and include these costs incurred as a component of revenue and as a component of operating expenses in the statement of income. These costs, which are pass-through expenses to tenants included in both revenues and expenses were Ps. 504.1 million and Ps. 379 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. As these expenses are fully reimbursed, without mark-up, by the tenants, there is no impact on operating income, net income, EPS, cash flows or the balance sheet.

II- Additional disclosure requirements (continued)
a) Statement of income classification differences (continued)
Should the US guidance be applied to the Argentine GAAP statement of income, net revenues under Argentine GAAP would have been Ps. 4.0 billion and Ps. 2.9 billion for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
(v) Operating income
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company reflected management fees, shareholders personal assets tax, other income and expenses, unrecoverable VAT receivable and lawsuits and contingencies as non-operating expenses; under US GAAP, should gains or losses on management fees, tax on shareholders’ personal assets tax, lawsuits and contingencies, unrecoverable VAT receivable and other income and expenses be reclassified out of and into operating income, respectively, operating income under Argentine GAAP would have been Ps. 621.8 million, Ps. 690.4 million and Ps. 552.2 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Management fees, shareholders personal assets tax, unrecoverable VAT receivable, other income and expenses and lawsuits and contingencies would be included as operating expenses.
(vi) Consolidation of BrasilAgro
As discussed in Note 2f A), the Company acquired additional shares and warrants of BrasilAgro in October 2010. Under Argentine GAAP, the Company determined that based on the actual and potential votes obtained coupled with the shareholders agreement, consolidation of BrasilAgro was appropriate. However, Argentine GAAP also prescribes that consolidation is not appropriate when conditions for consolidation are temporary.
As a result, and as detailed in Note 2.b), the Company determined that the Company's ownership interest was temporary as of the date of acquisition. Accordingly, the Company determined that consolidation was not applicable.
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company evaluated the conditions for consolidation as of each quarter-end, As of June 30, 2011, the Company determined that these conditions were no longer temporary as of that date and therefore consolidation was appropriate as of June 30, 2011.
Under US GAAP, the Company evaluated the acquisition and its considerations and determined that consolidation was appropriate as of the date of acquisition. The notion of temporary suspension of consolidation does not exist under US GAAP. As a result, the Company started consolidating BrasilAgro's Accounts as from the date of acquisition.

b) | Balance Sheet classification differences

Under Argentine GAAP, assets and liabilities are classified as current or non-current depending on their respective settlement dates. Under US GAAP, balance sheets of real estate companies generally do not present a classified balance sheet.
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company´s warrants are included into a Shareholder’s Equity. Under US GAAP, the Company´s warrants should be classified as current or non-current liabilities depending on their respective settlement dates.
Inventories
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company has classified the livestock for dairy production and other purposes not related to its sale as non-current inventory. Under US GAAP, this amount would be recorded as property and equipment on the consolidated balance sheet.

II- Additional disclosure requirements (continued)
b) Balance Sheet classification differences (continued)
Proportional consolidation
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company accounts for certain investments (the accounts of Cresca S.A., Apsamedia S.A., Canteras Natal Crespo S.A., Liveck, Cyrsa, Baicom Networks S.A. and Puerto Retiro S.A. as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 and Nuevo Puerto Santa Fe as of June 30, 2012) where it exercise joint control under the proportionate consolidation method.
Under US GAAP, since the Company does not exercise control over these investments, proportionate consolidation is not appropriate and the equity method of accounting is used for all periods presented as disclosed in Note 31.II.t).
Deferred taxes
In addition, under Argentine GAAP the Company has classified the net deferred tax liability as of June 30, 2012 amounting to Ps. 518.0 million and the net deferred tax liability as of June 30, 2011 amounting to Ps. 718.6 million, as follows: Ps. 77.8 million and Ps. 20.3 million as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, as non-current other receivables; and Ps. 595.8 million and Ps. 738.9 million as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, as non-current taxes payable. Under US GAAP, the classification of deferred taxes is determined by the classification of the asset or liability for financial reporting to which the temporary difference is related. A temporary difference is related to an asset or liability if reduction of the asset or liability causes the temporary difference to reverse. For deferred tax balances not related to an asset or liability for financial reporting (e.g. tax loss carryforwards), the classification is based on the expected realization date. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, Ps. 93.1 million and Ps. 33.9 million, respectively, would have been classified as current assets, and Ps. 362.3 million and Ps. 255.8 million respectively, would have been classified as non-current assets. As June 30, 2012 and 2011 Ps. 30.2 million and Ps. 24.6 million, respectively, would have been classified as current liabilities and Ps. 943.2 million and Ps. 983.7 million, respectively, would have been classified as non-current liabilities.
Deferred debt costs
Furthermore, under Argentine GAAP, deferred debt costs are shown as a deduction of the corresponding liability. Under US GAAP, issue costs should be reported as deferred charges of Ps. 24,675.
As these differences have no effect on net income or on shareholders’ equity, no reconciling items are presented for US GAAP purposes.
Treasury stock
As described in Note 5.f), under Argentine GAAP the acquisition cost of treasury stock is debited from the equity account “Reserve for new developments”. Argentine GAAP also requires that a debit entry be made for the par value of the related capital stock account that was repurchased, regardless of whether the stock was retired. Under US GAAP the cost of treasury stock is also debited to an equity account, however the related capital stock account is not reduced until the treasury stock is retired. This classification difference has no impact on the total shareholders’ equity that is reported.
c) Disclosure about fair value of financial instruments
Under Argentine GAAP, there are no specific rules regarding disclosure of fair value of financial instruments.
Under US GAAP, Accounting Standard Codification No. 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC No. 815”) requires reporting entities to disclose certain information about financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk of accounting loss. Accounting Standard Codification No. 825, "Financial Instruments" (“ASC No. 825”), requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value. Financial instruments include such items as cash and cash equivalents,

accounts receivable and accounts payable and other instruments. ASC No. 825 excludes from its disclosure requirements lease contracts and various significant assets and liabilities that are not considered to be financial instruments. Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 119 “Disclosure about Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments” requires reporting entities to disclose certain information for derivative financial instruments. ASC No. 815 superseded Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 105 “Disclosure of Information about Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk and Financial Instruments with Concentrations of Credit Risk” and Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 119 “Disclosure about Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments” and amended SFAS No. 107 to include in SFAS No. 107 the disclosure requirements of credit risk concentrations from SFAS No. 105. See Note 31.II.e) for details of concentration of credit risk.
The Company adopted Accounting Standard Codification No. 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC No. 820”) in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. In ASC No. 820, three levels of input, which are used to measure fair value, are as follows.
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for assets or liabilities.
Fair value estimates are made as of a specific point in time based on the characteristics of the financial instruments and the relevant market information. Where available, quoted market prices are used. In other cases, fair values are based on estimates using other valuation techniques, such as discounting estimated future cash flows using a rate commensurate with the risks involved or other acceptable methods. These techniques involve uncertainties and are significantly affected by the assumptions used and the judgments made regarding risk characteristics of various financial instruments, prepayments, discount rates, and estimates of future cash flows, future expected loss experience, and other factors. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates. Derived fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to independent markets and, in many cases, could not be realized in an immediate sale of the instrument. Also, because of differences in methodologies and assumptions used to estimate fair value, the Company's fair values should not be compared to those of other companies.
The following table summarizes the fair values of the assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2012 and 2011:

|  | June 30, 2012 |

There were no liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2012.
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the assets and liabilities measured at fair value, key inputs and significant assumptions:
Cash equivalents: Cash equivalents represent highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Generally, quoted market prices are used to determine the fair value of these instruments.
Marketable securities: Marketable securities and other securities investments include debt securities and equity securities. The Company uses quoted market prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities to measure fair value.
Derivative financial instruments: The Company estimates the fair value of derivative financial instruments using industry-standard valuation models that requires observable inputs including interest rates and foreign exchange rates, and the contractual terms. In other certain cases when market data is not available, key inputs to the fair value measurement include quotes from counterparties, and other market data. The Company’s derivative fair value measurements consider assumptions about counterparty and our own non-performance risk, using such as credit default probabilities.

Conversion features of preferred shares and warrants of Supertel: The fair value of the preferred shares’ conversion feature of Supertel was determined using a “Convertible Bond Valuation” model based on a Binomial Tree. This pricing model traces the evolution of the underlying variables in discrete-time considering the possible exercise of the conversion option of the shares at each step. The fair value of the warrants was determined using a “Bloomberg option” valuation model based on Black & Scholes formula which is a widely used option valuation methodology. The following summarizes the fair value as of June 30, 2012:

Description |  | June 30, 2012 Ps. (*) |
Preferred shares embedded derivative |  |  | 48,009 |
Warrants derivative |  |  | 22,531 |
|  |  | 70,540 |

(*) The preferred shares embedded derivative and the warrant derivative were initially recorded on the date of acquisition at their fair value of Ps.52.7 million and Ps.22.4 million , respectively.
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the assets and liabilities not measured at fair value, key inputs and significant assumptions:
Mortgages and leases receivable, net: The carrying amount of mortgages and leases receivables reported in the consolidated balance sheet approximates their fair value.
Accounts and notes receivable, net: Carrying amounts are considered to approximate fair value. All amounts that are assumed to be uncollectible within a reasonable time are written off and/or reserved.
Accounts and notes payable: The carrying amount of accounts and notes payable reported in the consolidated balance sheet approximates their fair value.
Short-term debt: The carrying amount of short-term debt reported in the consolidated balance sheet approximates fair value due to its short-term nature.
Long-term debt: As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, except for the Company´s Convertible Notes and Non-Convertible Notes as discussed below, the carrying amount of long-term debt reported in the consolidated balance sheet approximates their fair value.
The fair value of APSA Convertible and Non-Convertible Notes was Ps. 2,018.2 million and Ps. 2,667.1 million as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Such fair value was determined based on the market price of the shares assuming full conversion of the notes at fiscal year-end.
The fair value of IRSA Notes was Ps. 1,118.8 million and Ps. 1,344.1 million as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively and was determined based on the market price of the notes.
The fair value of Cresud Notes was Ps. 870.2 million and Ps. 371.5 million as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, was determined based on quoted market prices of the notes.
Other receivables and other liabilities: The carrying amount of other receivables and other liabilities reported in the consolidated balance sheet approximates fair value due to their short-term nature.
FASB issued ASC No. 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”, (“ASC No. 815”), formerly SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Standard No. 133”, to enhance the current disclosure framework in SFAS 133.

The derivatives entered into by the Company do not contain credit risk related contingent features.
The Company executed derivative financial instruments with creditworthy financial institutions, its the contractual terms of a foreign currency instrument, the Company’s risk is limited to the fair value of the instrument.
e) Concentration of credit risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and short-term investments.
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents, investments, and other financial instruments with various high credit quality financial institutions, thus mitigating the amount of credit exposure to any one institution.
The Company has not experienced any significant losses in such accounts.
Agriculture business
The Company’s accounts receivable are derived primarily from sales of crops to independent purchasers, live beef cattle to local meat processing companies and milk products to domestic dairy companies, as further described below. The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. The Company does not believe that significant credit risk exists as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 due to the diversity of its customer base. However, as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, ten customers account for more than 43% and 46% of the Company´s consolidated revenues, respectively. Furthermore, only three customers, Brenco Companhia Brasileira de Energía Renovável, Molinos Río de la Plata S.A. y Bunge Alimentos S.A. as of June 30, 2012 and Cargill S.A. Molinos Río de la Plata S.A. y Bunge Argentina S.A. as of June 30, 2011 account for more than 25% and 26% of the Company´s consolidated revenues, respectively.
Mastellone S.A. is the only customer of milk production of the Company. Mastellone is the largest dairy company in Argentina. Sales to Mastellone amounted to Ps. 27.5 million, Ps. 28.4 million and Ps. 24.4 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, representing 6%, 9.0% and 11.1% of the Company´s consolidated revenues, for those years, respectively. Although management believes that the Company will be able to continue to sell its milk production to Mastellone on favorable terms, there can be no assurance tha the Company would be able to maintain this relationship. Although management believes that other large dairy producers would be willing and able to purchase the Company’s milk production, there can be no assurance that the Company could timely locate alternative customers to sell its products at prices comparable to those paid by its current major customers. The Company negotiated with Mastellone the prices of raw milk on a monthly basis in accordance with domestic supply and demand. The prices of the milk are mainly based on the percentage of fat and protein that it contains and the temperature at which it is cooled. The price we obtain from our milk also rises or drops based on the content of bacteria and somatic cells.

e) Concentration of credit risk (continued)
The Company sells crops production mainly to exporters and manufacturers that process the raw materials to produce meal and oil, products that are sent to the export markets. The Argentine crop market is characterized by a few purchasers and a great number of sellers. Although most of the purchasers are international companies with strong financial conditions, it cannot assure you that this situation will remain the same in the future or that this market will not get more concentrated in the future.
The Company may not be able to maintain or form new relationships with customers or others who provide products and services that are important to Company’s business.
Real Estate Business
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and short-term investments.
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents, investments, and other financial instruments with various high credit quality financial institutions, thus mitigating the amount of credit exposure to any one institution. The Company has not experienced any significant losses in such accounts.
The Company’s accounts receivable are primarily derived from leases and services from the Company’s shopping center and office buildings customers and origination of consumer loans and credit card receivables. The Company is not dependent on any single customer. Accounts receivable derived from leases and services are related to the Company's shopping center and office buildings operations. The Company has not experienced any significant losses resulting from non-performance of any counterpart to the lease contracts.
Consumer loan and credit card receivables arise primarily under open-end revolving credit accounts used to finance purchases of goods and services offered by the Company’s shopping centers, hypermarkets and street stores, and financing and lending activities through the Company’s subsidiaries Tarshop and Apsamedia. These accounts have various billing and payment structures, including varying minimum payment levels and finance charge rates.
The Company provides an allowance for uncollectible accounts based on impaired accounts, historical charge-off patterns and management judgment. Due to the economy recovery, customers experienced fewer delays in payments and also uncollectibility rates decreased during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. As of June 30, 2010, the allowance for doubtful accounts decreased Ps. 15.5 million, or 19.6%, as compared to June 30, 2009. Nevertheless, the Company continues closely monitoring the delays, delinquency and uncollectibility rates.
As discussed in Note 14, as of June 30, 2010, Tarshop sold receivables aggregating Ps. 960.9 million through securitization programs outstanding, for which the Company’s credit risk exposure is contractually limited to the subordinated CPs held by the Company representing Ps. 136.0 million and Ps. 4.7 million escrow reserves for losses and Apsamedia sold receivables aggregating Ps. 235.8 million through securitization programs outstanding, for which the Company’s credit risk exposure is contractually limited to the subordinated retained interests held by the Company representing Ps. 7.1 million and Ps. 0.7 million escrow reserves for losses. For the three months ended September 30, 2010, no additional impairment charge related to the retained interests in securitized receivables was recorded.
f) Statement of cash flows classification differences
The statements of cash flows presented in the primary financial statements are prepared based on Argentine GAAP amounts. Under US GAAP, the Company should follow the guidance in ASC No. 230 "Statement of Cash Flows" (ASC No. 230).
Under ASC No. 230, the total amounts of cash and cash equivalents at the beginning and end of a period shown in the statement of cash flows are required to be the same amounts as similarly titled items shown on the face of the balance sheet as of the respective dates. Note 12 to the primary financial statements shows this reconciliation for cash and cash equivalents under Argentine GAAP. However, certain differences may exist between cash and cash equivalents under Argentine GAAP and US GAAP. As described in Note 12, under Argentine GAAP, the

31. Differences between Argentine GAAP and US GAAP (continued)
II- Additional disclosure requirements (continued)
f) Statement of cash flows classification differences (continued)
Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. In particular, investments in mutual funds are considered to be cash equivalents by reference to the frequency with which liquidity is available according to Argentine GAAP practice and guidance. Under US GAAP, the original maturity is determined by reference to the stated term of the underlying securities or the timeframe for exercising any put features to the issuer and not by reference to the frequency with which liquidity may be available through an auction, a put feature to a third party, or otherwise. Therefore, for US GAAP purposes, certain mutual funds were not considered to be cash equivalents. In addition, under Argentine GAAP, the Company consolidated on a pro rata basis the accounts of CYRSA, Quality Invest, Nuevo Puerto Santa Fe, Canteras Natal Crespo, Liveck, Baicom Networks, Puerto Retiro and Cresca. Under US GAAP, proportionate consolidation is not appropriate since the Company did not exercise control over these investments. As a result, additional differences exist between the amounts of cash and cash equivalents reported in the primary statements of cash flows under Argentine GAAP than they would be reported under US GAAP.
The following table reconciles the amounts of cash and cash equivalents under Argentine GAAP with the amounts of cash and cash equivalents under US GAAP:

|  | For the fiscal year ended June 30, |
|  | 2012 |  |  | 2011 |  |  | 2010 |
Cash and cash equivalents as shown in the statements of cash flows under Argentine GAAP (Note 12) |  |  | 549,831 |  |  |  | 705,544 |  |  |  | 175,653 |
Less: Mutual funds not considered cash equivalents under US GAAP |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | (28,758 | )
Deconsolidation of pro-rata investments under US GAAP |  |  | (24,038 | ) |  |  | (10,993 | ) |  |  | (3,742 | )
Total cash and cash equivalents under US GAAP |  |  | 525,793 |  |  |  | 694,551 |  |  |  | 143,153 |

Under Argentine GAAP, the effects of exchange rates changes on cash and cash equivalents are not disclosed separately by presenting a fourth category as it is required by ASC No. 230. The effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 were Ps. 6.8 million, Ps. (7.1) million and Ps. (0.03) million, respectively.
Due to the difference in definition of cash and cash equivalents, there may be a difference in the amount reported for purchases and sales of investments not considered to be cash equivalents under investing activities in a statement of cash flows under US GAAP as compared to the same titled line items under Argentine GAAP.
Due to the deconsolidation of the pro rata investments under US GAAP, the cash flows from operating and investing activities under US GAAP differ from the respective cash flows under Argentine GAAP, since each line item excludes the pro rata equity interest of the respective cash inflow or outflow.
In addition, certain differences exist in the classification of cash inflows or outflows as operating, investing or financing activities under US GAAP as compared to Argentine GAAP. These differences are:
- Payments for the acquisition of a non-controlling interest are classified as investing activities under Argentine GAAP while classified as financing activities under US GAAP;
- Dividends collected are classified as investing activities under Argentine GAAP while classified as operating activities under US GAAP.
- Interest payment are classified as financing under Argentine GAAP while classified as operating activities under GAAP
Based on the foregoing, the following table shows the cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities as well as the effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents that would be reported in a statement of cash flows:

g) Earnings per share
As described in Note 3.ab), under Argentine GAAP the Company is required to disclose earnings per share information in accordance with RT 18 for all years presented, Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements disclose the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share under Argentine GAAP.
Guidance set forth in RT 18 is similar to the basic principles set forth in ASC No. 260, “Earnings per Share”, (“ASC No. 260”), formerly SFAS No. 128 “Earnings per Share” (SFAS No.128) although certain differences exist.
Under US GAAP, basic and diluted earnings per share are presented in conformity with ASC No. 260.
Under Argentine GAAP, the Company has considered the dilutive effects of outstanding warrants, using the if converted method as applicable, Under US GAAP, dilutive options or warrants that are issued during a period or that expire or are cancelled during a period must be included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding for purposes of computing diluted EPS for the period that they were outstanding. Additionally, dilutive options or warrants exercised during the period must be included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding for purposes of computing diluted EPS for the period prior to actual exercise. Thereafter, the shares issued will be included in the weighted average calculation of shares outstanding used for both basic and diluted EPS. Under US GAAP, the Company applied the treasury-stock method.
The following tables set forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per common share under US GAAP for all periods presented:

h) Risks and uncertainties
The Company is subject to certain business risks arising in connection with its operations which include, among others:
Risks associated with Argentine operations: A substantial part of the Company’s operations and properties are located in Argentina. As a result, the Company financial condition and results of operations depend to a significant extent on macroeconomic and political conditions prevailing in Argentina.
Agriculture business
Fresh produce is vulnerable to adverse weather conditions including windstorms, floods, drought and temperature extremes, which are quite common but difficult to predict. Fresh produce is also vulnerable to crop and beef cattle diseases and pests. These factors may result in lower sales volume and increased costs, but may also restrict supplies and lead to an increase in prices for fresh produce.
The Company’s earnings are sensitive to fluctuations in the volatile market prices for its products, sales prices for crops are based on the market prices quoted in the Argentine grain exchanges, which largely reflect world commodity prices. Beef cattle prices are based on the major Argentine auction markets for cattle and are primarily determined by domestic supply and demand. Milk prices are also determined on the basis of domestic supply and demand.
As with any agribusiness enterprise, the Company’s business operations are predominantly seasonal in nature. The harvest and sale of crop (corn, soybean and sunflower) generally occurs from February to June. The harvest of wheat generally occurs from December to January. Other segments of the Company’s business, such as its cattle and milk sales, and its forestry activities, tend to be more successive than seasonal in nature.
Real Estate Business
The Company is subject to certain business risks arising in connection with its operations which include, among others:
Risks associated with Argentine operations: A substantial part of the Company’s operations and properties are located in Argentina, As a result, the Company financial condition and results of operations depend to a significant extent on macroeconomic and political conditions prevailing in Argentina.
Risks associated with office and other buildings leases: The Company’s lease revenues from its real estate operations may be adversely affected by (i) local or national economic conditions in the areas in which the properties are located, (ii) oversupply of office space or a reduction in demand for such space, (iii) increased competition from other real estate operators, (iv) changes in the ability of the Company or the tenants to provide for adequate maintenance and/or insurance, (v) increases in operating expenses, (vi) adverse changes in the regional or national economy, (vii) the bankruptcy or insolvency of, or a downturn in the business of, any of its major tenants, and/or (viii) the possibility that such tenants will not renew their leases as they expire. Unfavorable economic conditions could also result in the inability of tenants in certain sectors to meet their lease obligations and otherwise could adversely affect the Company’s ability to attract and retain desirable tenants.

h) Risks and uncertainties (continued)
Risks associated with development properties activities: Include (i) the potential abandonment of development opportunities; (ii) construction costs may exceed the Company’s original estimates, possibly making a project uneconomical; (iii) occupancy rates and rents at a newly completed project may be insufficient to make the project profitable; (iv) the Company’s inability to obtain financing on favorable terms for the development of the project; (v) construction and lease-up may not be completed on schedule, resulting in increased debt service expense and construction costs; and (vi) the Company’s inability to obtain, or the delays in obtaining, all necessary zoning, land-use, building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations; (vii) preconstruction buyers may default on their purchase contracts or units in new buildings may remain unsold upon completion of constructions, (viii) sales prices for residential units may be insufficient to cover development cost.
Risks associated with the hotel industry: The success of the Company’s operated hotels will depend, in large part, upon the Company’s ability to compete in areas such as access, location, quality of accommodations, room rate structure, quality and scope of food and beverage facilities and other services and amenities. The Company’s hotels may face additional competition if other companies decide to build new hotels or improve their existing hotels such that they are more attractive to potential guests, In addition, the profitability of the Company’s hotels depends on (i) the Company’s ability to form successful relationships with international operators to run the hotels; (ii) changes in travel patterns, including seasonal changes; and (iii) taxes and governmental regulations which influence or determine wages, prices, interest rates, construction procedures and costs.
Shopping center operating risks: The development, administration and profitability of shopping centers are impacted by various factors including: the accessibility and the attractiveness of the area where the shopping center is located, the intrinsic attractiveness of the shopping center, the flow of people and the level of sales of each shopping center rental unit, increasing competition from internet sales, the amount of rent collected from each shopping center rental unit and the fluctuations in occupancy levels in the shopping centers, In the event that there is an increase in operational costs, caused by inflation or other factors, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company if its tenants are unable to pay their higher rent obligations due to the increase in expenses.
Since May 28, 1997, Law No. 24,808 provides that tenants may rescind commercial lease agreements after the initial six months upon not less than sixty days written notice, subject to penalties of only one-and-a-half months’ rent if the tenant rescinds during the first year of the lease, and one-month rent if the tenant rescinds after the first year of the lease, The exercise of such rescission rights could materially and adversely affect the Company.
The Company’s property is currently and will continue to be subject to risks incident to the ownership and operation of commercial real estate and residential development properties. The Company’s lease sales from its real estate operations may be adversely affected by (i) local or national economic conditions in the areas in which the properties are located; (ii) oversupply of retail space or a reduction in demand for retail space; (iii) increased competition from other real estate operators; (iv) changes in the ability of the Company or the tenants to provide for adequate maintenance and/or insurance; (v) increases in operating expenses; and/or (vi) adverse changes in the regional or national economy. Other risks include the inability to collect rent due to bankruptcy or insolvency of tenants or otherwise, the need to periodically renovate, repair and release space and the costs thereof and the ability of a tenant to provide adequate maintenance and insurance. In addition, the failure to sell the property to be constructed could have a material adverse effect on the Company.
An economic downturn in the areas in which the shopping centers are located might adversely affect the Company’s sales (through bankruptcy of tenants and reduction in the shopping center sales due to lower variable income), Increases in operating costs due to inflation and other factors may result in some tenants being unable or unwilling to pay rent or expense increases. In addition, the Company has several tenants occupying space in more than one shopping center and, as a result, if any of such tenants should experience financial difficulties and cease paying rent, the Company’s operating results could be adversely affected. Furthermore, as leases on properties expire, the Company may be unable to find new tenants or tenants may enter into new leases on terms that are less favorable to the Company. The failure to lease such properties could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The Company recognized net (loss) gain of Ps. (12.3) million, Ps. (4.2) million and Ps. 3.2 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 respectively. During September and October 2012, IRSA made an additional investment of US$ 25 million in Dolphin Fund Plc.
- Corporate services: In view of the fact that the Company, IRSA and APSA have operating areas with certain similarities, IRSA´s Board of Directors deemed it appropriate to implement alternative initiatives aimed at reducing certain fixed costs in its activities in order to reduce their impact on operating results, thereby taking advantage of and optimizing individual efficiencies of each company in the different areas of operations management.
Within this context, on June 30, 2004, a Framework Agreement for the Exchange of Corporate Services was executed by and between the Company, IRSA and APSA, which was subsequently amended on August 23, 2007, August 14, 2008 and November 27, 2009.
The Framework Agreement for the Exchange of Corporate Services executed by and between the Company, IRSA and APSA currently involves the following areas in the exchange of services: Human Resources, Finance, Institutional Relations, Administration and Control, Systems and Technology, Insurance, Purchases and Procurement, Messenger Services, Contracts, Technical, Infrastructure and Services, Internal Audit, Planning and Development, Development of Works, Real Estate, Hotels and Tourism, and Risks and Processes.
The exchange of services consists in the provision of services for valuable consideration in relation to any of the above mentioned areas, carried out by one or more of the parties on behalf of the other party or parties, invoiced and payable primarily through offsetting based on the provision of services in any such areas, and secondarily in cash, in case of a difference in value of the services provided.
Under this agreement, the companies have hired an external consulting company to review and evaluate on a six-month basis the criteria used in the settlement of corporate services, as well as the bases of distribution and supporting documentation used in the process, to be reflected in a report prepared for each six-month period.
On March 12, 2010 we entered into a new amendment to the Service Sharing Agreement within the Company, IRSA and APSA so as to simplify the issues arising from the consolidation of the Financial Statements resulting from the increase of Cresud’s interest in IRSA. In this regard, the IRSA´s Board of Directors has deemed it convenient and advisable for achieving such simplification, to transfer labor contracts, like those of APSA, to Cresud. Effective since January 1, 2010, labor costs of such employees were transferred to our payroll, which will continue to be distributed pursuant to the conditions of the Shared Services Agreement.
In the future, and in order to follow the policy of making the most efficient distribution of corporate resources among the different areas, this agreement may be extended to other areas share by the Company, IRSA and APSA.
It should be noted that, notwithstanding this procedure, the Company, IRSA and APSA maintain total independence in their strategic and commercial decisions, and that the allocation of costs and income is performed based on operating efficiency and equity principles, without pursuing individual economic benefits for the companies. The implementation of this project does not impair the identification of the economic transactions or services involved, or the effectiveness of internal control systems or internal and external audit work of each company, or the disclosure of the transactions subject to the Agreement in accordance with Technical Resolution No. 21 of the FACPCE. Furthermore, Mr. Alejandro Gustavo Elsztain has been appointed to the position of General Coordinator, whereas Daniel E. Mellicovsky has been charged with the operation and implementation of the agreement on behalf of the Company, Abraham Perelman shall represent IRSA, and Cedric Bridger shall represent APSA. All these individuals are members of the Audit Committees of their respective companies.
On July 11, 2011 we entered into the Fourth Agreement for Implementation of Amendments to the Master Agreement of Corporate Services with APSA and IRSA. The purpose of the new amendments is to generate a more efficient allocation of the corporate resources between the parties, to ensure the most equitable allocation of costs while maintaining the efficiency of the group, and also to continue with the reduction of certain fixed costs of the parties activities, in order to decrease its impact on the operating results.

r) Disclosures about credit risk and credit quality of financing receivables and allowance for credit losses

a) | Credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and short-term investments.
The Company places its cash and cash equivalents, investments, and other financial instruments with various high credit quality financial institutions, thus mitigating the amount of credit exposure to any one institution, The Company has not experienced any significant losses in such accounts.
The Company’s accounts receivable are primarily derived from leases and services from the Company’s shopping center and office buildings customers and origination of consumer loans and credit card receivables. The Company is not dependent on any single customer. Accounts receivable derived from leases and services are related to the Company's shopping center operations. The Company has not experienced any significant losses resulting from non-performance of any counterpart to the lease contracts.
Consumer loan and credit card receivables arise primarily under open-end revolving credit accounts used to finance purchases of goods and services offered by the Company’s shopping centers, hypermarkets and street stores, and financing and lending activities through the Company’s subsidiaries Tarshop and Apsamedia.

Farmlands
Additionally, as of June 30, 2012, the Company holds receivables arising from the sale of certain farmlands to third parties for an aggregate amount of Ps. 28.7 million. The Company measures impairment for these receivables on an individual basis, considering the borrower’s overall financial condition, resources, and payment record, the prospects for support from any financially responsible guarantors and, if appropriate, the realizable value of any collateral. As of June 30, 2012, none of these receivables were past due nor impaired.
Receivables from the sale of properties

For this segment, the Company collectively evaluates for impairment smaller-balance homogeneous loans, based on grouping its portfolio in loans with similar characteristic, taking into account asset type, collateral type, past-due status and other relevant factors. The Company applies allowance factors, which in the judgment of management represent the expected losses over the life of the loans. In determining those factors, the Company considers the following: (i) delinquencies and overall risk ratings, (ii) loss history, (iii) trends in volume and terms of loans, (iv) effects of changes in lending policy, (v) the experience and depth of the borrowers’ management, (vi) national and local economic trends, (vii) concentrations of credit by individual credit size and by class of loans, (viii) quality of loan review system, and (ix) the effect of external factors (e.g. competition and regulatory requirements). As of June 30, 2012 all of these receivables are secured by mortgages.

For its consumer financing segment, the Company has developed and documented a systematic methodology to determine its provision for loan losses, based on grouping its portfolio in loans with similar characteristic, taking into account asset type, collateral type, past-due status and other relevant factors. The Company applies allowance factors, which in the judgment of management represent the expected losses over the life of the loans, In determining those factors, the Company considers the following: (i) delinquencies and overall risk ratings, (ii) loss history, (iii) trends in volume and terms of loans, (iv) effects of changes in lending policy, (v) the experience and depth of the borrowers’ management, (vi) national and local economic trends, (vii) concentrations of credit by individual credit size and by class of loans, (viii) quality of loan review system, and (ix) the effect of external factors (e.g., competition and regulatory requirements). As of June 30, 2012, the Company provided for losses with respect to consumer financing receivables for an amount of Ps. 59.9 million.

Other financing receivables
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company holds outstanding loans granted to related parties (mainly Cresud and Tarshop) for an aggregate amount of Ps. 35.0 million and 42.7 million, respectively. These loans are denominated in Argentine pesos and accrue interest at fixed interest rates ranging from 4% to 14%. The Company measures impairment for these receivables on an individual basis, considering the borrower’s overall financial condition, resources, and payment record, the prospects for support from any financially responsible guarantors and, if appropriate, the realizable value of any collateral. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, none of these receivables were past due nor impaired.
Allowance for credit losses
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011 the Company has estimated an allowance for credit losses. This estimation has been made taking into account those credits which are past due for more than 180 days, which were cancelled with bounced checks, credits which are under legal claim and expired documents. There have been no changes in the way that the Company estimates its allowance for credit losses from prior years.
The following table presents the activity in the allowance for credit losses for fiscal years ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011:

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Financial Accounting Standard No. 141 (Revised 2007), "Business Combinations" ("FAS No. 141(R)") or Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 805, "Business Combinations"
The Company adopted FAS No. 141(R), or ASC 805, on July 1, 2009, the first day of the 2010 fiscal year. This topic significantly changed the accounting for business combinations. Under this topic, an acquiring entity is required to recognize all the assets acquired and all the liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions. Transaction costs are no longer included in the measurement of the business acquired. Instead, these costs are expensed as they are incurred. This topic also includes a substantial number of new disclosure requirements. It applies to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008, which for the Company was the beginning of the 2010 fiscal year. The adoption of this topic did have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. See Notes 31.I.aa. and 31.I.ab. for details.
Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("FAS No. 157") or ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures"
The Company adopted FAS No. 157 or ASC 820, on July 1, 2008, the first day of the 2009 fiscal year. FASB Staff Position ("FSP") FAS No. 157-2, "Effective Date of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement No. 157" ("FSP FAS No. 157-2"), or ASC 820-10, amended ASC 820 by delaying its effective date, by one year, for non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. In accordance with ASC 820-10, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 820 to non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities on July 1, 2009, the first day of the 2010 fiscal year. The adoption did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Financial Accounting Standards No. 160, "Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements-an Amendment of ARB No. 51" ("FAS No. 160") or ASC 810-10-65-1,"Consolidation — Transition"
The Company adopted FAS No. 160 or ASC 810-10-65-1, on July 1, 2009, the first day of the 2010 fiscal year. This topic establishes new accounting and reporting standards for non-controlling interests, previously known as minority interests, in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, this statement requires the recognition of non-controlling interests as equity in the consolidated financial statements separate from the parent's equity. The amount of net income or loss attributable to the non-controlling interests is included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. This topic clarifies that changes in a parent's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income attributable to the Company when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss is measured using the fair value of the non-controlling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. This topic also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its non-controlling interests. This topic is applied prospectively for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning with the current fiscal year, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which are applied retrospectively for all periods presented. The adoption of this topic did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
FSP FAS No. 141(R)-1, "Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination that Arise from Contingencies" ("FSP FAS No. 141(R)-1") or new accounting guidance within ASC 805, "Business Combinations"
The Company adopted FSP FAS No. 141(R)-1, or ASC 805, on July 1, 2009, the first day of the 2010 fiscal year. This topic applies to all assets acquired and all liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies. This topic states that the acquirer will recognize such an asset or liability if the acquisition-date fair value of that asset or liability can be determined during the measurement period. If it cannot be determined during the measurement period, then the asset or liability should be recognized at the acquisition date if the following criteria, consistent with the guidelines for accounting for contingencies, are met: (1) information available before the

end of the measurement period indicates that it is probable that an asset existed or that a liability had been incurred at the acquisition date, and (2) the amount of the asset or liability can be reasonably estimated. The adoption of this topic did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
FSP FAS No. 142-3, "Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets" ("FSP FAS No. 142-3") or ASC 350-30-50-4
The Company adopted FSP FAS No. 142-3, or ASC 350-30-50-4, on July 1, 2009, the first day of the 2010 fiscal year. This topic amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under FAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("FAS No. 142"). This topic is intended to improve the consistency between the useful life of an intangible asset and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset. This topic requires an entity to disclose information related to the extent to which the expected future cash flows associated with the asset are affected by the entity's intent and/or ability to renew or extend the arrangement. The adoption of this topic did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-09 "Subsequent Events (Topic 855): Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements" ("ASU No. 2010-09")
On February 25, 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09 Subsequent Events Topic 855 "Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements," effective immediately. The amendments in the ASU remove the requirement for an SEC filer to disclose a date through which subsequent events have been evaluated in both issued and revised financial statements. Revised financial statements include financial statements revised as a result of either correction of an error or retrospective application of US GAAP. The FASB believes these amendments remove potential conflicts with the SEC's literature. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-02 "Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary - a Scope Clarification" ("ASU No. 2010-02")
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-02, Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary – a Scope Clarification. This update provides amendments to ASC 810-10, Consolidation – Overall (formerly SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements) to clarify the scope of the decrease in ownership provisions of ASC 810-10 and related guidance. ASU 2010-02 also clarifies that the decrease in ownership guidance does not apply to certain transactions even if they involve businesses. ASU 2010-02 expands the disclosures required for a business combinations achieved in stages and deconsolidation activity within the scope of ASC 810-10. ASU 2010-02 is effective for both interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009. The amendments are to be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted ASU 810-10, Consolidation – Overall. The adoption of this ASU did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements relative to non-controlling interests.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-09 "Accounting for Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures and Accounting for Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees" ("ASU No. 2009-09")
In September 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-09, Accounting for Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures and Accounting for Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. This ASU represents a correction to Section 323-10-S99-4, Accounting by an Investor for Stock-Based Compensation Granted to Employees of an Equity Method Investee. Section 323-10-S99-4 was originally entered into the Codification incorrectly. The ASU was effective upon issuance. The adoption of ASU No. 2009-09 did not have material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Financial Statement of Position (FSP) on Accounting Professional Board (APB) 14-1 "Debt with Conversion and Other Options" or ASC 470 "Debt"
In May 2008, the FASB issued revised guidance on Convertible Debt Instruments. The revised guidance which is now part of ASC 470-20 (formerly Staff Position No. Accounting Principles Board 14-1, Accounting for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash Settlement). ASC 470-20 requires that the liability and equity components of convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion (including partial cash settlement) be separately accounted for in a manner that reflects an issuer's nonconvertible debt borrowing rate. ASC 470-20 was effective for the Company on July 1, 2009, the first day of the 2010 fiscal year. The adoption of ASC 470-20 did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06 "Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements" (Topic 820) ("ASU No. 2010-6")
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements”. ASU No. 2010-06 requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements including transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 and a higher level of disaggregation for the different types of financial instruments. For the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements, information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements are presented separately. ASU 2010-06 was effective for the Company on July 1, 2010, the first day of the 2011 fiscal year. The adoption of this topic did have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements since the Company does not have Level 2 or Level 3 fair value measurements. See Notes 31.II.c. for details.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-11 "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives" ("ASU No. 2010-11")
In March 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-11, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Scope Exception Related to Embedded Credit Derivatives.” ASU No. 2010-11 clarifies that the only form of an embedded credit derivative that is exempt from embedded derivative bifurcation requirements are those that relate to the subordination of one financial instrument to another. As a result, entities that have contracts containing an embedded credit derivative feature in a form other than such subordination may need to separately account for the embedded credit derivative feature. The provisions of ASU 2010-11 were effective on July 1, 2010, the first day of the 2011 fiscal year and did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-20 "Receivables (Topic 310): Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses" ("ASU No. 2010-20")
In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, which requires new and expanded financial statement disclosures. An entity is required to provide qualitative and quantitative disclosures about the allowance for credit losses, credit quality, impaired loans, modifications, and nonaccrual and past due financing receivables. In addition, the disclosures must be disaggregated by portfolio segment or class of financing receivable based on how a company develops its allowance for credit losses and how it manages its credit exposure. The provisions of ASU No.2010-20 were effective for the Company on July 1, 2010 the first day of the 2011 fiscal year. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-20 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-17, Revenue Recognition - Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition. This ASU codifies the consensus reached in EITF Issue No. 08-9, "Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition." The amendments to the Codification provide guidance on defining a

milestone and determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for research or development transactions. Consideration that is contingent on achievement of a milestone in its entirety may be recognized as revenue in the period in which the milestone is achieved only if the milestone is judged to meet certain criteria to be considered substantive. Milestones should be considered substantive in their entirety and may not be bifurcated. An arrangement may contain both substantive and nonsubstantive milestones, and each milestone should be evaluated individually to determine if it is substantive. The provisions of ASU No. 2010-17 were effective for the Company on July 1, 2010, the first day of the 2011 fiscal year. The adoption of ASU No. 2010-17 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-29 "Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)” ("ASU No. 2010-29")
In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-29, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). The amendments in this Update affect any public entity as defined by Topic 805 that enters into business combinations that are material on an individual or aggregate basis. The Company adopted the amendments of this Update are effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The adoption of ASU 2010-29 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-02 “Receivables (Topic 310): A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring” (“ASU No. 2011-02”)
In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-02, Receivables (Topic 310): A Creditor’s Determination of Whether a Restructuring Is a Troubled Debt Restructuring. The amendments in this Update apply to all creditors, both public and nonpublic, that restructure receivables that fall within the scope of Subtopic 310-40, Receivables—Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors. The Company adopted the amendments of this Update on July 1, 2011, the first day of the 2012 fiscal year. The adoption of ASU 2011-02 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-08 “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment” (“ASU No. 2011-08”)
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment. Under the amendments in this Update, an entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then performing the two-step impairment test is unnecessary. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform the first step of the two-step impairment test by calculating the fair value of the reporting unit and comparing the fair value with the carrying amount of the reporting unit, as described in paragraph 350-20-35-4. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the entity is required to perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any, as described in paragraph 350-20-35-9. Under the amendments in this Update, an entity has the option to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit in any period and proceed directly to performing the first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test. An entity may resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. The Company adopted the amendments of this Update on July 1, 2011, the first day of the 2012 fiscal year. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-03 “Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements” (“ASU No. 2011-03”)
In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-03, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements. The amendments in this Update remove from the assessment of effective control (1) the criterion requiring the transferor to have the ability to repurchase or redeem the financial assets on substantially the agreed terms, even in the event of default by the transferee, and (2) the collateral maintenance implementation guidance related to that criterion. The guidance in this Update is effective for the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04 “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in US GAAP and IFRSs” (“ASU No. 2011-04”)
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in US GAAP and IFRSs. The amendments in this Update result in common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in US GAAP and IFRSs. Consequently, the amendments change the wording used to describe many of the requirements in US GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. For many of the requirements, the Board does not intend for the amendments in this Update to result in a change in the application of the requirements in Topic 820. Some of the amendments clarify the Board’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement requirements. Other amendments change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments in this Update are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Early application by public entities is not permitted. Nonpublic entities may apply the amendments in this Update early, but no earlier than for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05 “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income” (“ASU No. 2011-05”)
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. Under the amendments to Topic 220, Comprehensive Income, in this Update, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. In a single continuous statement, the entity is required to present the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with the total of comprehensive income in that statement. In the two-statement approach, an entity is required to present components of net income and total net income in the statement of net income. The statement of other comprehensive income should immediately follow the statement of net income and include the components of other comprehensive income and a total for other comprehensive income, along with a total for comprehensive income. Regardless of whether an entity chooses to present comprehensive income in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements, the entity is required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented (this last requirement was deferred by the FASB on November 8,2011). The amendments in this Update do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. The amendments do not change the option for an entity to present components of other comprehensive income either net of related tax effects or before related tax effects, with one amount shown for the aggregate income tax expense or benefit related

to the total of other comprehensive income items. In both cases, the tax effect for each component must be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements or presented in the statement in which other comprehensive income is presented. The amendments do not affect how earnings per share is calculated or presented. The amendments in this Update should be applied retrospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2012, and interim and annual periods thereafter. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-10 “Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Derecognition of in Substance Real Estate—a Scope Clarification (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)” (“ASU No. 2011-10”)
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Derecognition of in Substance Real Estate—a Scope Clarification (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force). Under the amendments in this Update, when a parent (reporting entity) ceases to have a controlling financial interest (as described in Subtopic 810-10) in a subsidiary that is in substance real estate as a result of default on the subsidiary’s nonrecourse debt, the reporting entity should apply the guidance in Subtopic 360-20 to determine whether it should derecognize the in substance real estate. Generally, a reporting entity would not satisfy the requirements to derecognize the in substance real estate before the legal transfer of the real estate to the lender and the extinguishment of the related nonrecourse indebtedness. That is, even if the reporting entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest under Subtopic 810-10, the reporting entity would continue to include the real estate, debt, and the results of the subsidiary’s operations in its consolidated financial statements until legal title to the real estate is transferred to legally satisfy the debt. For public entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2012. For nonpublic entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2013, and interim and annual periods thereafter. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11 “Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities” (“ASU No. 2011-11”)
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offseting Assets and Liabilities. The amendments in this Update require an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-12 “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05” (“ASU No. 2011-12”)
In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05. In order to defer only those changes in Update 2011-05 that relate to the presentation of reclassification adjustments, the paragraphs in this Update supersede certain pending paragraphs in Update 2011-05. The amendments are being made to allow the Board time to redeliberate whether to present on the face of the financial statements the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and other comprehensive income for all periods presented. While the Board is considering the operational concerns about the presentation requirements for reclassification adjustments and the needs of financial statement users for additional information about reclassification adjustments, entities should continue to report reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect before Update 2011-05. The amendments in this Update are effective at the same time as the amendments in Update 2011-05 so that entities will

not be required to comply with the presentation requirements in Update 2011-05 that this Update is deferring. For this reason, the transition guidance in paragraph 220-10-65-2 is consistent with that for Update 2011-05. The amendments in this Update are effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Accounting Standards Update No. 2012-02 “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment” (“ASU No. 2012-02”)
In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. In accordance with the amendments in this Update, an entity has the option first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, an entity concludes that it is not more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then the entity is not required to take further action. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount in accordance with Subtopic 350-30. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
t) Pro-rata consolidation of jointly controlled companies
As discussed in Note 2.c). the Company accounted for its investments in Cresca S.A., Canteras Natal Crespo S.A., Apsamedia S.A., Puerto Retiro S.A., Liveck, Quality Investments, Baicom Networks S.A., Nuevo Puerto de Santa Fe S.A. and CYRSA, under the proportionate consolidation method under Argentine GAAP.
Accordingly, the Company deconsolidated jointly controlled companies and prospectively applied the equity method of accounting for these investments. Under US GAAP, since the Company did not exercise control over the subsidiaries, proportionate consolidation was not appropriate and the equity method of accounting was used for all periods presented.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Banco Hipotecario S.A.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Banco Hipotecario S.A. and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Bank”) as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 and the related consolidated statements of income, of changes in shareholders' equity and of cash flows for each of the three twelve-month periods in the period ended June 30, 2012. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Bank's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Banco Hipotecario S.A. and its subsidiaries at June 30, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three twelve-month periods in the period ended June 30, 2012 in conformity with accounting rules prescribed by the Banco Central de la República Argentina (the “BCRA”).
The Bank’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Argentine Banking GAAP, which differs in certain significant respects from U.S. GAAP. Such differences involve methods of measuring the amounts shown in the consolidated financial statements, as well as additional disclosures required by U.S. GAAP and regulations of the SEC. These consolidated financial statements include solely a reconciliation of net income and shareholders’ equity to U.S. GAAP. Pursuant to Item 17 of Form 20-F, this reconciliation does not include disclosure of all information that would be required by U.S. GAAP and regulations of the SEC. Information relating to the nature and effect of the differences between accounting rules prescribed by the BCRA and U.S. GAAP is presented in Note 32 to the consolidated financial statements.

1. | General

a. Description of business
Banco Hipotecario SA (herein after referred to as the “Bank” or “BHSA”), is a commercial bank, organized under the laws of Argentina.
The Bank historically has provided general banking services, focused on individual residential mortgage loans and construction-project loans directly to customers as well as indirectly through selected banks and other financial intermediaries throughout Argentina. In 2004, as part of its business diversification strategy, the Bank resumed the mortgage lending and expanded its product offerings, beginning to offer personal loans, credit card loans and also engaging in mortgage loan securitizations, mortgage loan servicing, other corporate loans and mortgage-related insurance in connection with its lending activities.
b. Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements of the Bank have been prepared in accordance with the rules of Banco Central de la República Argentina (“Argentine Central Bank” or “BCRA”) which prescribes the accounting reporting and disclosure requirements for banks and financial institutions in Argentina (“Argentine Banking GAAP”). These rules differ in certain respects from generally accepted accounting principles in Argentina (“Argentine GAAP”) applicable to enterprises in general. The significant differences between Argentine Banking GAAP and Argentine GAAP are described in Note 5 to the consolidated financial statements. Argentine Banking GAAP and Argentine GAAP also differ in certain significant respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Such differences involve methods of measuring the amounts shown in the consolidated financial statements, as well as additional disclosures required by U.S. GAAP and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These consolidated financial statements include solely a reconciliation of net income and shareholders’ equity to U.S. GAAP. Pursuant to Item 17 of Form 20-F, this reconciliation does not include disclosure of all information that would be required by U.S. GAAP and Regulation S-X of the SEC. See Note 32 for details.
Certain disclosures required by the Argentine Banking GAAP have not been presented herein since they are not required under U.S. GAAP or the SEC and are not considered to be relevant to the accompanying consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.
Certain reclassifications of prior years information have been made to conform to current year presentation. Such reclassifications do not have a significant impact on the Bank financial statements.
c. Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Bank and its subsidiaries over which the Bank has effective control. The percentages directly or indirectly held in those companies’ capital stock as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

d. Presentation of financial statements in constant argentine pesos
The financial statements have been adjusted for inflation in conformity with the guidelines set in Communication “A” 551 of the Argentine Central Bank up to the financial year ended December 31, 1994, and prepared in accordance with the standards laid down by CONAU 1 Circular. As from January 1, 1995, and according to the authorization accorded by Resolution N° 388 of the Argentine Central Bank's Superintendency of Financial and Exchange Institutions, the Bank discontinued the adjustment for inflation of its financial statements until December 31, 2001. As from January 1, 2002, as a result of the application of Communication “A” 3702 which established the repeal of any legal and regulatory rule that did not allow companies to restate their accounting balances at period-end currency values, the Bank resumed the application of the adjustment for inflation in accordance with the rules issued in due time by the Argentine Central Bank using the adjustment coefficient derived from the domestic wholesale price index published by the National Statistics and Census Institute (INDEC). Furthermore, it has been considered that the accounting measurements derived from the changes in the purchasing power of the currency between December 31, 1994 and 2001 are stated in the currency value as of the latter date.
On March 25, 2003, the Executive Branch issued Decree 664 establishing that the financial statements for years ending as from that date are to be stated in nominal currency. Consequently, in accordance with Communication “A” 3921 of the BCRA, the restatement of the financial statements was discontinued as from March 1, 2003.

As of and for the twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010
(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)
4.2. Government and Corporate Securities
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011 securities classified as "Holdings booked at fair value", "Investment in listed corporate securities" and "Securities issued by the BCRA – quoted bills and notes issued by the BCRA" with volatility published by the BCRA, have been recorded at quoted market prices.
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, securities classified as “Holdings booked at cost plus return” and “Securities issued by the BCRA – unquoted bills and notes issued by the BCRA” with no volatility
published by the BCRA, have been recorded at their acquisition cost subject to an exponential increase based on their internal rate of return.
4.3. Loans
The portfolio of performing loans and loans with 90 days or less past due, has been recorded at principal amounts, net of amortization, adjusted by CER (Reference Stabilization Index), and CVS (Adjustment Salary Variation Index), where applicable, plus accrued interest and net of allowance for loan losses.
Loans to the non-financial private sector originally granted in foreign currency prior to December 2001 have been converted into pesos at the exchange rate of Ps. 1.00 per US dollar, as established by Law 25561, Decree 214 and complementary rules and amendments. Since February 3, 2002, the CER and CVS have been applied to the amount of those loans and maximum rates have been established, depending on the borrower.
4.4. Interest accruals and adjustments of principal amounts (CER and CVS)
In general lending and certain borrowing transactions in local and foreign currency, interest is recognized on a compounded basis, which provides for an increasing effective rate over the life of the loan. Interest accruals for loans past due more than 90 days, were discontinued.
Adjustments of principal amounts from the application of the CER and CVS, were accrued as established by BCRA regulations.
Interest is recognized on a cash basis on past due loans of more than 90 days, after reducing the balance of accrued interest.
Law 25796 established the elimination of the CVS since April 2004.
4.5. Allowance for Loan Losses
The Bank provides for estimated losses on loans and the related accrued interest through the recognition of an allowance for loan losses. The allowance charged to expense is determined by management based upon loan classification, actual loss experience, current and expected economic conditions, delinquency aging, and an evaluation of potential losses in the current loan portfolio. Specific attention is given to loans with evidence that may negatively affect the Bank´s ability to recover the loan and accrued interest.
4.6. Mortgage Related Insurance
The Bank records provisions for incurred but not reported insurance claims and pending insurance claims based on historical loss experience. The Bank provides property damage, life and unemployment insurance for its mortgage loan customers as well as for debtors of loans which the Bank services. Income from insurance premiums is recognized as it is charged as a component of the monthly loan installment under “Income from services” in the accompanying consolidated statement of income.
The Bank has set up a reserve for incurred but not reported and pending insurance claims for Ps.1,181 and 1,181 as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
The Bank discontinues accruing insurance premiums for individual loans when the related loan is over 90 days past due.

(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)
4.7. Assets under financial leases
They were recorded at the net investment in the lease less unearned income and calculated in accordance with the conditions agreed upon in the respective agreements, by applying the interest rate imputed therein.
4.8. Loans in trust pending securitization
The Bank has executed various financial trust agreements under which it has transferred the fiduciary ownership of certain of its mortgage loans to other financial entities as trustees for the benefit of trust. Once the mortgage loans have been transferred, the trust fund issues the corresponding debt securities and certificates of participation and remits the proceeds to the Bank. The Bank may also retain an ownership interest in the trust in the form of debt securities or certificates of participation.
These receivables, corresponding to pesified mortgage loans registered in the name of the trustee, are recorded as an asset of the Bank, since the trustee has not issued the corresponding debt securities and certificates participation, and therefore the Bank maintains the dual roles of trustor and sole beneficiary.
4.9. Derivative Financial Instruments
Currency swaps are recorded on the basis of the net asset or liability derived from the accrual of amount receivable in Euros or US dollar, minus the accrual of interest payable in US dollar or Euros (both derived from the current coupon of the swap).
Credit currency swap are recorded on the basis of the net asset or liability position derived from variations in the underlying assets. In addition, the Bank creates provisions for these transactions when the value stated above exceeds their fair value, as requested by the BCRA for this credit currency swap.
Interest rate swaps to hedge exposure against interest rate risk attached to liabilities and assets are recorded on the basis of the net asset or liability derived from the accrual of interest receivable (on a fixed interest rate basis) minus the accrual of interest payable (on a variable interest rate basis), both derived from the current coupon of the swap.
Future contracts buy or sell foreign currency is recorded at fair value. The settlement of these contracts is carried on a daily basis for the difference, if any, between the closing price of the underlying asset and the closing price or value of the underlying asset corresponding to the previous day.
Changes in these values, for all derivative instruments, are recognized as a gain or loss under the caption “Financial Income – Interest on loans and other receivables from financial transactions” or “Financial Expenses – Interest on deposits and other liabilities from financial transactions”, respectively.

4.10. Securitizations of Loans
The Bank accounted for the transfer of loans to trusts and the issuance of mortgage bonds, as a sale and recorded its retained interest in the securitization trusts at their principal amounts. A gain or loss is recognized for the difference between the cash proceeds received and the principal balance of the loans underlying the bonds sold. Retained interests relating to certificates of participation are adjusted on a monthly basis to reflect the net results of the Bank's residual interest in the trusts.
The certificates of participation have been recorded according to the equity method of accounting, written down, to reflect any allowances for impairment. In addition, debt securities issued by the trust are recorded at face value, adjusted by CER, when applicable, plus accrued interest, written down, if applicable, to reflect any allowances for impairment and less the negative amount of the equity method applied to the certificates of participation, when applicable.
4.11. Investments in Other Companies
Investments in Other Companies include equity interest in companies where a Non-controlling interest is held.
Under Argentine Banking GAAP, the equity method is used to account for investments where a significant influence in the corporate decision making process exists.
Permanent equity investments in companies where corporate decision are not influenced, are accounted for at the lower of cost and the equity method. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011 these investments were recorded at cost.
4.12. Bank Premises and Equipment and Miscellaneous Assets
Bank premises and equipment are recorded at cost, adjusted for inflation (as described in Note 1.d), less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation is computed under the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful lives for bank premises and equipment are as follows:

Buildings | 50 years
Furniture and fixtures | 10 years
Machinery and equipment | 5 years
Other | 5 years

The cost of maintenance and repairs of these properties is charged to expense as incurred. The cost of significant renewals and improvements is added to the carrying amount of the respective assets. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statement of income.
The Bank has recorded under "Miscellaneous assets" - properties received in lieu of payment of loans. These assets are initially recognized at the lower of market value or the value of the loan, net of allowances and subsequently, adjusted for inflation (as described in Note 1.d), and depreciation. Depreciation of Miscellaneous assets is also computed under the straight-line method over the estimated useful of the related assets.

The Bank recognizes income tax charges and liabilities on the basis of the tax returns corresponding to each fiscal year at the statutory tax rates. As of June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the corporate tax rate was 35%. Under Argentine Banking GAAP the Bank does not recognize deferred income taxes.

For purposes of reporting cash flows, “Cash and cash equivalents” include “Cash and due from banks”.
4.21. Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the financial statement dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates include those required in the accounting of allowances for loan losses and the reserve for contingencies. Since management’s judgment involves making estimates concerning the likelihood of future events, the actual results could differ from those estimates which would have a positive or negative effect on future period results.
4.22. Repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements
Repurchase agreements have been recorded at original value plus accrued premiums agreed. The underlying of repurchase agreements has been valued following the criteria described in Note 4.2. "Government and Corporative Securities".

| 5. Summary of differences between Argentine Banking GAAP and Argentine GAAP

The Bank’s accounting policies and financial statement presentation generally conform to the rules prescribed by the Argentine Central Bank which prescribes the reporting and disclosure policies for all banks and financial institutions in Argentina. These rules differ in certain respects from Argentine GAAP. The following is a summary of the principal differences between Argentine Banking GAAP and Argentine GAAP:

a) | Accounting for income tax according to the deferred tax method

The Bank determines income tax at the statutory rate applicable to the estimated taxable income, without considering the effect of any timing differences between the accounting and taxable results. Under Argentine GAAP, income tax must be recognized according to the deferred tax method.

b) | Secured bonds and other government securities

As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Bank recorded BOGAR 2018 bonds granted as collateral for the advance payment received from the BCRA, at the value admitted for purposes of setting up guarantees in accordance with the regulations of the BCRA. Under Argentine GAAP, those securities should be recorded at their quotation values net of estimated selling expenses.
Discount Bonds are recorded as established in Note 4.2. Under Argentine GAAP, those bonds should be recorded at their quotation value less estimated selling expenses.
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Bank recorded BONAR 2017 bonds and BODEN 2015 bonds, as established in note 4.2. Under Argentine GAAP, those bonds should be recorded at their quoted market value less estimated selling expenses.

(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)

c) | Derivatives

Under Argentine Banking GAAP, derivative instruments are recorded as described in Note 4.9. Under Argentine GAAP, derivative financial instruments must be recorded at fair value.

d) | Receivables and debts stemming from refinancing

Pursuant to Argentine GAAP, when certain receivables and debts are replaced by others the terms and conditions thereof are substantially different to the original ones, the existing account shall be closed and a new receivable or debt shall be recorded, the accounting measurement thereof shall be made on the best possible estimate of the amount payable or receivable, discounted at a rate that reflects market valuations on the time value of money and the specific risks of such assets and liabilities. Said transactions are recorded under Argentine Banking GAAP based on the rates
contractually agreed upon and, as the case may be, the risk is measured pursuant to the classification and provisioning criteria specifically set forth.

e) | Financial Trusts

The financial trust certificates of participation have been recorded according to the equity method of accounting, net of allowances. In addition, financial trust debt securities have been stated at face value, index-adjusted by applying the CER to the appropriate instruments, plus interest accrued until the end of the period or year, net of allowances, less the negative amount of the Certificates of Participation, as the case may be, reported by the Trustee. This criterion differs from Argentine GAAP.

f) | Commissions, Interest and Costs related to Loans and Credit Cards

Pursuant to Argentine GAAPs, certain captions for commissions, fees, charges and costs incurred, in relation to the granting of loans and credit cards must be capitalized based in future income generation. This criterion is not applied according to the Argentine Banking GAAP.
h) Ownership interests in other companies and intangible assets
The Bank determined the goodwill for the acquisition of 80% of Tarshop SA’s capital stock based on the excess of the acquisition cost over the equity value of such ownership interest and made the related adjustments between the Argentine GAAP and Argentine Banking GAAP such as deferred tax and allowances for loan losses. Under Argentine GAAP, goodwill should reflect the difference between the acquisition cost of said ownership interest and the holding percentage over the amount of the net assets recorded at fair value.
6. Restricted Assets

(a) | Underlying: Foreign currency.
(b) | Underlying: Interest rate.

1. | Cross Currency Swaps: Cross currency swaps were carried out in order to reduce the volatility of the Bank's results derived from variations in the Euro quotation, in view of the net liability position of that currency, stemming from the restructuring of Euro-denominated
| negotiable obligations. Through these transactions, the Bank receives Euros, in exchange for a certain amount of US dollars. The Bank records the changes in the assets and liabilities position in Euros and US dollars plus the corresponding interest rate. Within this framework, the following transactions have been carried out:

· | On March 5, 2004, the Bank and Deutsche Bank AG executed a currency swap contract for residual values of Euros 50,040 thousand (asset position) and US$ 60,784 thousand (liability position) which due date shall be December 1, 2013. This swap has been partially reversed with a contra swap whose residual values amount to US$ 13,720 thousand (asset position) and Euros 10,008 thousand (liability position).

· | On October 29, 2004, the Bank and Credit Suisse First Boston executed a currency swap contract for residual values of Euros 23,352 thousand (asset position) and US$ 29,790 thousand (liability position). Despite the fact that the instrument due date was December 1, 2013, it has been cancelled on May 21, 2012.

The net book value as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to Ps. 16,481 and Ps. 93,742, respectively.
For these transactions, as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Bank has recognized gains for Ps. 1,806 and Ps. 2,699, respectively.

2. | Credit Currency Swaps: in order to reduce the volatility of the Bank’s results derived from variations in the CER index, in view the net liability position stemming from obligations in pesos adjustable by said index, related to the financial assistance to be requested from the Argentine Central Bank for the subscription of BODEN 2012 pursuant to the provisions of Section 29, subsect. g) of Decree 905/02, the Bank carried out currency swap transactions paying US dollars and receiving in exchange CER index. The Bank has subscribed directly its rights to receive hedge BODEN 2012, therefore, it has not asked for BCRA’s financial assistance, and the hedge for which the aforementioned contracts were implemented has partially ended. Within this framework, the following transactions have been carried out:

· | On January 25, 2005, the Bank entered into a currency swap contract (Cross Currency Swap) with Deutsche Bank AG which due date shall be August 3, 2012. According to this transaction, the Bank receives interest at a rate of 2% on a notional principal of Ps. 107,459 adjusted by applying the CER and pays interest at 180-day LIBOR plus 435 basis points on a residual principal of US$ 18,750 thousand without transfer of principal on each due date.

20. Securitization of mortgage loans, consumer loans and credit card loans
The Bank created separate trusts under its US securitization program and “Cédulas Hipotecarias Argentina – program”; and a consumer trust under BACS’s Global Trust Securities Program. For each mortgage or consumer trust, the Bank transfers a portfolio of mortgages or consumer loans originated by banks and other financial institutions in trust to the relevant trustee. The trustee then issues Class A senior Bonds, Class B subordinated bonds and certificates of participation. The trust’s payment obligations in respect of these instruments are collateralized by, and recourse is limited to, the trust’s assets consisting of the portfolio of mortgage or consumer loans and any reserve fund established by the Bank for such purpose. The securitizations were recorded as sales, and accordingly, the mortgage and consumer loans conveyed to the trusts are no longer recorded as assets of the Bank.
At the date of these financial statements the following trust funds have been set up:

25. Income Tax
Prior to January 1, 1996, the Bank was exempt from the payment of income tax. Beginning January 1, 1996, the Bank was only exempt from the payment of income tax on income from its operations, assets, and interest income attributable to its residential mortgage lending activities. Effective October 1997, as a result of conversion to a sociedad anónima, the Bank is subject to income tax in Argentina except on its income attributable to mortgage loan commitments made prior to that date.
As a general rule, the income tax law allows the deduction of expenses incurred to obtain or maintain the source of taxable income. For purposes of deducting from the taxable revenues those expenses incurred to obtain jointly taxable and non –taxable income, expenses should be segregated accordingly.
Furthermore, the fiscal rule gives prerogative to the direct allocation method rather than the apportionment method to determine the deductible expenses. Thus, the apportionment method should only be used when it is not possible to make direct allocation of expenses to the taxable revenue.

As of and for the twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010
(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)

(a) | The Bank's Programa de Propiedad Participada (“PPP”) is the Bank's employee stock ownership plan.

(b) | Under the Bylaws, the affirmative vote of the holders of Class A Shares is required in order to effectuate: (i) mergers or spin-offs; (ii) an acquisition of shares (constituting a Control Acquisition or resulting in the Bank being subject to a control situation); (iii) the transfer to third parties of a substantial part of the loan portfolio of the Bank, (iv) a change in the Bank’s corporate purpose; (v) the transfer of the Bank’s corporate domicile outside of Argentina, and (vi) the voluntary dissolution of the Bank.

(c) | For so long as Class A Shares represent more than 42% of the Bank’s capital, the Class D Shares shall be entitled to three votes per share, except that holders of Class D Shares will be entitled to one vote per share in the case of a vote on: (i) a fundamental change in the Bank’s corporate purpose; (ii) a change of the Bank’s domicile to be outside of Argentina; (iii) dissolution prior to the expiration of the Bank’s corporate existence; (iv) a merger or spin-off in which the Bank is not the surviving corporation; and (v) a total or partial recapitalization following a mandatory reduction of capital.

(d) | By reason of the expiration on January 29, 2009 of the Total Return Swap that had been executed and delivered on January 29, 2004 (See 5.13), Deutsche Bank AG transferred to the Bank 71,100,000 ordinary Class “D” shares in Banco Hipotecario Sociedad Anónima with face value $ 1 each, which are available for the term and in the conditions prescribed by the Argentine Companies Law, in its Section 221. The General Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting held on April 30, 2010 resolved to extend for a year, counted as from January 31, 2010, the term for realizing the treasury shares held by the Bank.

On April 30, 2010, the General Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting resolved to delegate upon the Board of Directors the decision to pay with the treasury shares in portfolio the Stock Appreciation Rights (StAR) coupons resulting from the debt restructuring as advisable based
on the contractually agreed valuation methods and their actual market value after allowing the shareholders to exercise their preemptive rights on an equal footing.
On June 16, 2010, the Board of Directors resolved to launch a preemptive offer to sell a portion of the Bank’s treasury shares, for a total of 36.0 million class D shares. The remaining shares would be delivered in payment to the holders of Stock Appreciation Rights (StAR) coupons arising from the debt restructuring, which fell due on August 3, 2010. On July 26, 2010, within the framework of the referred offer, the Bank sold approximately 26.9 million of the shares mentioned above.
On August 3, 2010 the proceeds of the offer and the balance of the shares referred in the preceding paragraph were made available to the holders of the Stock Appreciation Rights (StAR) coupons. With the above-mentioned offering, 999,312 Class D shares were sold in excess of those required to pay off the obligation previously mentioned. In connection with such excess sale, Ps. 554 thousand were recorded as retained earnings to reflect the addition of the shares to the entity’s equity, which took place on January 29, 2009 as detailed in this note, and a further Ps. 834 thousand were booked as Additional paid-in capital for the difference between the value as added to the entity’s equity and the sales value.
The Class B shares have been set aside for sale to the Bank's employees in the future pursuant to the PPP on terms and conditions to be established by the Argentine government. Any Class B shares not acquired by the Bank's employees at the time the Bank implements the PPP will automatically convert into Class A shares. The Class C shares are eligible for sale only to companies engaging in housing construction or real estate activities. Any Class B shares transferred by an employee outside the PPP will automatically convert to Class D shares or Class C shares transferred to persons not engaged in construction or real estate activities will automatically convert into Class D shares.
(b) Distribution of profits
No profits may be distributed when any financial year does not produce profits.
Argentine Central Bank Communication “A” 4152 dated June 2, 2004 left without effect the suspension of the distribution of profits established by Communication “A” 3574. However, those banks that proceed to such distribution must be previously authorized by the Financial and Exchange Institutions Superintendency.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of and for the twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010
(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)
Through Communiqué “A” 4526 dated April 24, 2006, the BCRA established that when the Legal Reserve is used to absorb losses, earnings shall not be distributed until the reimbursement thereof. Should the balance prior to the absorption exceed 20% of the Capital Stock plus the Capital Adjustment, profits may be distributed once the latest value is reached.
For purposes of determining distributable balances, the net difference arising from the book value and the market quotation shall be deducted from retained earnings, in the event the Entity records government debt securities and/or debt securities issued by the BCRA not recorded at market prices, with volatility published by such entity.
Pursuant to its Communication “A” 5072, BCRA established that no dividend distribution shall be admitted in so far as: a) the amounts deposited as minimum cash requirements on average – in Pesos, foreign currency or in Government securities – were less than the requirements pertaining to the most recently closed position or the position as projected taking into account the effect of the distribution of dividends, and/or b) the amounts deposited as minimum capital requirements were less than the requirements recalculated as previously mentioned plus a 30% increase, and/or c) the
Entity has received financial aid from the BCRA on grounds of illiquidity as set forth in Section 17 of BCRA’s Charter.
On January 27, 2012, the BCRA issued Communication “A” 5272 whereby it established that for the calculation of the minimum capital requirement, the minimum capital for operational risk shall be included. On the same date, Communication “A” 5273 was also issued, whereby the BCRA resolved to increase the percentage referred to in the preceding paragraph, subsection b), from 30% to 75%.
The Ordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting, held on April 13, 2011, resolved to distribute the income for the year ended on December 31, 2010 as follows: Ps. 39,063 (20%), to be applied to the Statutory Reserve Ps. 100,000 (61.59%), to be paid out as cash dividends on ordinary shares, and the balance, after the Board’s remuneration, to be maintained as Retained earnings. On September 20, 2012 the BCRA has approved the payment of cash dividend.
28. Employee Benefit Plan
The Bank is obligated to make employer contributions to the National Pension Plan System determined on the basis of the total monthly payroll. These expenses are recorded in “Salaries and social security contributions” under the “Administrative expenses” caption in the accompanying consolidated statements of income.
29. Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
In the normal course of its business the Bank is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in order to meet the financing needs of its customers. These instruments expose the Bank to credit risk in addition to amounts recognized in the balance sheets. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit.

|  | June 30, |
|  | 2012 |  |  | 2011 |
Commitments to extend credit |  |  |  |  |  |
Mortgage loans (a) |  | Ps. 179,730 |  |  | Ps. 209,282 |
Credit card loans (b) |  |  | 5,317,813 |  |  |  | 3,719,232 |

Total |  | Ps. 5,707,825 |  |  | Ps. 4,090,948 |

a) | Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer at a future date, subject to such customers meeting of pre-defined contractual milestones. Typically, the Bank will commit to extend financing for construction project lending on the basis of the certified progress of the work under construction. Most arrangements require the borrower to pledge the land or buildings under construction as collateral. In the opinion of management, the Bank’s outstanding commitments do not represent unusual credit risk. The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party is represented by the contractual notional amount of those commitments.

b) | The Bank has a unilateral and irrevocable right to reduce or change the credit card limit, thus it considered there is no off-balance sheet risk. In the opinion of management, the Bank’s outstanding commitments do not represent unusual credit risk. The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party is represented by the contractual notional amount of those commitments.

31. Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards
On March 29, 2009, the FACPCE issued the Technical Resolution N° 26 “Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Financial Reporting Board (IASB)” which requires companies under supervision of the National Securities Commission (C.N.V.) to prepare their financial statements in accordance with IFRS as published by the IASB for fiscal periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011, including comparative information for earlier periods. The C.N.V. issued Resolution N° 562/09, as amended by Resolution 576/10 formally adopting application of Resolution N° 26 to its regulated entities for fiscal years beginning on January 2, 2012.
The IFRS adopted by the C.N.V. are not applicable to the Bank. This is due to the fact that the C.N.V. holds the position to accept accounting criteria set forth by other regulatory or control body, such as those established by the Argentine Central Bank for the companies included in the Financial Institutions Law. However, IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones S.A. (IRSA) is required to comply with the changes to the Argentine GAAP and therefore the Bank, an unconsolidated associated company of IRSA, will have to prepare its financial information for purposes of providing such information to IRSA for their filings under IFRS.
32. Summary of Significant Differences between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP
The Bank’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Argentine Banking GAAP, which differs in certain significant respects from U.S. GAAP. Such differences involve methods of measuring the amounts shown in the consolidated financial statements, as well as additional disclosures required by U.S. GAAP and regulations of the SEC. These consolidated financial statements include solely a reconciliation of net income and shareholders’ equity to U.S. GAAP. Pursuant to Item 17 of Form 20-F, this reconciliation does not include disclosure of all information that would be required by U.S. GAAP and regulations of the SEC.

I. | Differences in measurement methods

As from March 1, 2003, inflation accounting was discontinued. The following reconciliation does not include the reversal of the adjustments to the consolidated financial statements for the effects of inflation, because, as permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), it represents a comprehensive measure of the effects of price-level changes in the Argentine economy, and as such, is considered a more meaningful presentation than historical cost-based financial reporting for both Argentine GAAP and U.S. GAAP.
The main differences between Argentine GAAP and U.S. GAAP as they relate to the Bank are described below, together with an explanation, where appropriate, of the method used in the determination of the necessary adjustments. References below to “ASC” are to Accounting Standard Codification issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in the United States of America.

(*) Includes Ps. (13,375) related to the retained earnings distribution approved by the General Shareholders’ Meeting hold on April 13, 2011 and Ps. 1,389 recognized as a consequence of the sales of treasury stocks.
a. Loan origination fees and costs
Under Argentine Banking GAAP, the Bank does not defer loan origination fees and costs on mortgage, personal and credit card loans.
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, under ASC 310 loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs should be recognized over the life of the related loan as an adjustment of yield.
Therefore the shareholders´ Equity adjustment between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP for Banco Hipotecario S.A. as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to Ps. (69,230) and (24,982), respectively.
b. Loan loss reserve
The Bank’s accounting for its allowance for loan losses differs in some significant respects with practices of U.S.-based banks.
Under Argentine Banking GAAP, the allowance for loan losses is calculated according to specific criteria. This criterion is different for commercial loans (those in excess of Ps. 1,500) and consumer loans. Loan loss reserves for commercial loans are principally based on the debtors’ payment capacity and cash-flows analysis. Loan loss reserves for consumer loans are based on the client’s aging. Argentine banks may maintain other reserves to cover potential loan losses which management believes to be inherent in the loan portfolio, and other Argentine Central Bank required reserves.
With respect to the acquisition of Tarshop S.A. under Argentine Banking GAAP, the Bank recorded the loan portfolio acquired at fair value. However, as of June 30, 2011, the presentation in the consolidated balance sheet was made on a gross basis, recording an outstanding amount of principal plus interest of Ps. 246,679 and the related allowances for loan losses of Ps. 35,789.
For U.S. GAAP purposes the fair value of the loan portfolio acquired is presented in one line item, for an amount of Ps. 210,890, with no amount of allowance for loan losses being recognized at the acquisition date.
Under U.S. GAAP, the allowance for loan losses should be in amounts adequate to cover inherent losses in the loan portfolio, incurred at the respective balance sheet dates. Specifically:

a) | Loans considered impaired, in accordance with ASC 310-10 “Accounting for Creditors for Impairment of a Loan”, are recorded at the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective contractual interest rate or at the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. Under ASC 310-10, a loan is considered impaired when, based on current information, it is probable that the borrower will be unable to pay contractual interest or principal payments as scheduled in the loan agreement. ASC 310-10 applies to all loans except smaller-balance homogeneous consumer loans, loans carried at the lower of cost or fair value, debt securities, and leases.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of and for the twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010
(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)
The Bank applies ASC 310-10 to all commercial loans classified as “With problems”, “Insolvency Risks” and “Uncollectible” or commercial loans more than 90 days past due. The Bank specifically calculates the present value of estimated cash flows for commercial loans in excess of Ps.750 and more than 90 days past due. For commercial and other loans in legal proceedings, loans in excess of Ps.1,500 are specifically reviewed either on a cash-flow or collateral-value basis, both considering the estimated time to settle the proceedings.
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the result of applying ASC 310-10, shows that the Bank recorded an adjustment to Shareholders’ Equity for U.S. GAAP purposes of Ps. 29,863 and Ps. 43,493, respectively.

b) | In addition, the Bank has performed a migration analysis for mortgage, credit cards and consumer loans following the ASC 450-20 and historical loss ratios were determined by analyzing historical losses, in order to calculate the allowance required for smaller-balance impaired loans and unimpaired loans for U.S. GAAP purposes. Loss estimates are analyzed by loan type and thus for homogeneous groups of clients. Such historical ratios were updated to incorporate the most recent data reflecting current economic conditions, industry performance trends, geographic or obligor concentrations within each portfolio segment, and any other pertinent information that may affect the estimation of the allowance for loan losses.

As a result of the analysis mentioned before, the Bank recorded an adjustment to Shareholders’ Equity for U.S. GAAP purposes of Ps. (38,497) and Ps. (166), for 2012 and 2011, respectively.

c) | Under Argentine Banking GAAP, loans that were previously charged-off, which are subsequently restructured and become performing loans, are included again in the Bank’s assets, according to the policies adopted by the bank. Under U.S. GAAP recoveries of loans previously charged off should be recorded when received. As of June 2012 and 2011, the Bank recorded an adjustment to Shareholders’ Equity related to reinstated loans of Ps. (121,143) and Ps. (117,190), respectively.

d) | Effective July 1, 2010, the Bank implemented new accounting guidance provided by SFAS 166 and 167 (ASU 2009-16 and ASU 2009-17, respectively, under the new codification), which amend the accounting for transfers of financial assets and consolidation of variable interest entities (VIEs). As a result of applying such guidance, the Bank, or its subsidiaries, were deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the securitization trusts because the Bank, or its subsidiaries, have the power to direct the activities of these VIEs through its servicing responsibilities and duties. Additionally, the Bank, or its subsidiaries, through its retained interests held in these securitizations have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIEs. As a result of the analysis performed, the Bank should consolidate assets and liabilities of those securitization trusts, elimininating the investment in the retained interests and recording and adjustment in the allowance for loan losses of such securitization trusts.

As a result of the analysis mentioned before, the Bank recorded an adjustment to Shareholders’ Equity for U.S. GAAP purposes of Ps. (5,131) and Ps. (510), for 2012 and 2011, respectively.
As a result of analysis performed the breakdown of the shareholders´ Equity adjustment between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP between the Bank’s adjustment and the reconsolidated securitization trusts as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 is as follows:

c. Derivative Instruments
As mentioned in Note 19 and 4 the Bank entered in several derivative transactions, mainly, to hedge: i) the exchange rate risk attached to liabilities denominated in Euros and in pesos plus CER, ii) assets denominated in US dollars (BODEN 2012) and iii) interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk.
Under Argentine Central Bank rules, currency swaps are recorded on the basis of the net asset or liability derived from the accrual of interest receivable in Euros or US dollar, minus the accrual of interest payable in US dollar or Euros (both derived from the current coupon of the swap).
In addition, under Argentine Central Bank rules, currency swap carried out as a hedge for the bank’s exposure to the CER-adjusted liabilities, have been recorded according to the net asset or liability position derived from variations in the underlying assets. In addition, the Bank creates provisions for these transactions when the value stated above exceeds their fair value, as requested by the BCRA for this credit currency swap.
According to Argentine Central Bank rules, interest rate swaps to hedge against interest rate risk attached to liabilities accruing fixed interest rates and assets accruing variable interest rates are recorded on the basis of the net asset or liability derived from the accrual of interest receivable (on a fixed interest rate basis) minus the accrual of interest payable (on a variable interest rate basis), both derived from the current coupon of the swap.
Gains and losses are recorded in earnings in each period.
Under U.S. GAAP, the Bank accounts for derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815 which establishes the standards of accounting and reporting derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded within contracts (collectively referred to as derivatives) and hedging activities. This statement requires institutions to recognize all derivatives in the balance sheet, whether as assets or liabilities, and to measure those instruments at their fair value. If certain conditions are met, a derivative may be specifically designated as (a) a hedge for the exposure to changes in the fair value of a recorded asset or liability or unrecorded firm commitment, (b) a hedge for the exposure of future cash flows and (c) a hedge for the exposure of foreign currency. If such a hedge designation is achieved then special hedge accounting can be applied for the hedged transactions that will reduce the volatility in the income statement to the extent that the hedge is effective. In order for hedge accounting to be applied the derivative and the hedged item must meet strict designation and effectiveness tests.
The Bank’s derivatives do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under U.S. GAAP. Therefore gains and losses are recorded in earnings in each period.
Under U.S. GAAP, the Bank’s estimates the fair value of the receivable and payable on the derivative instrument using valuation techniques with observable market parameters. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011 the shareholder’s equity adjustment amounts to Ps. 1,288 and Ps. (6,353), respectively.

d. Compensatory and hedge bonds
In connection with the Bank’s right (but not the obligation) to purchase the hedge bond, under Argentine Banking GAAP the Bank has recognized it at their equivalent value as if the Bank had the associated bonds in their possession (technical value), and recognized the associated liability to fund the hedge bonds as if the Bank had executed the debt agreement with the Argentine Central Bank. The receivable is denominated in US dollars bearing interest at Libor whereas the liability to the Argentine Central Bank is denominated in pesos with interest being accrued at CER plus 2%, each retroactive to February 3, 2002.
As of June 30, 2005, the Bank obtained the benefit of the hedge bond to be purchased as the transaction was approved by the Argentine Central Bank. During September 2005, the Bank started to purchase the bonds.
Therefore, for U.S. GAAP purposes, the Bank started recognizing the fair value of the option to receive the Hedge bond in the period ended June 30, 2005. As of June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010 there was no amount of hedge bond to be received pending of delivery.
As of June 30, 2010, the Compensatory Bonds received were recognized at the technical value (nominal value plus interest accrued) according to Argentine Banking GAAP. Under U.S. GAAP such amounts should initially be recognized at their quoted market value (limited to the amounts of the loss BHSA suffered in connection with the asymmetric pesification). Thereafter, Compensatory Bonds received are classified as available for sale securities and recognized at market value with the gains or losses recognized as a charge or credit to equity through other comprehensive income.
During the period ended June 30, 2011, all compensatory and hedge bonds were sold. Therefore, the 2011 U.S. GAAP net income reconciliation includes the reversal of the 2010 shareholders’ equity adjustment of Ps. 105,234 plus Ps. 16,079 of gains previously recorded through other comprehensive income, which that are being realized and reversed through the income statement during the period ended June 30, 2010.

· | Discount Bonds

As of June 30, 2004 the Bank held certain defaulted Argentine government bonds. Such bonds were not quoted in the public market. On January 2005, the Bank accepted the offer to exchange its defaulted government securities for “Discount Bonds in pesos” issued under the Argentine debt restructuring. On April 1, 2005 the government securities were exchange.
For U.S. GAAP purposes and in accordance with ASC 310 satisfaction of one monetary asset (in this case a defaulted government securities) by the receipt of another monetary asset (in this case Discount Bonds) from the creditor is generally based on the market value of the asset received in satisfaction of the debt. In this particular case, the Bonds being received are significantly different in structure and in interest rates than the securities swapped. Therefore, the fair value of the Bonds was determined on the balance sheet date based on their market value and will constitute the cost basis of the asset. Any difference between the old asset and the fair value of the new asset is recognized as a gain or loss.
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011 these bonds have been recorded in accordance with Argentine Banking GAAP, at their acquisition cost subject to an exponential increase based on the internal rate of return.
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011 the Discount Bonds were considered available for sale securities for U.S. GAAP purposes according with ASC 320-10 and recorded at fair value with the unrealized gains and losses recognized as a charge or credit to equity through other comprehensive income.
As of June 30, 2012 the amortized cost of the investment is greater than its fair value, according with the following:

|  | 2012 |  |  | 2011 |

The Bank has evaluated whether there was a decline in the value of the security that is other-than temporary as defined by ASC 320.
A number of factors are considered in performing an impairment analysis of securities. Those factors include, among others:

a. | Intent and ability of the Bank to retain its investment for a period of time that allows for any anticipated recovery in market value;

b. | Expectation to recover the entire amortized cost of the security;

c. | Recoveries in fair value after the balance sheet date;
d. | The financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, including any specific events which may influence the operations of the issuer (such as changes in technology that may impair the earnings potential of the investment or the discontinuance of a segment of a business that may affect the future earnings potential).

e. | Likelihood that it will be required to sell debt investements before recovery of amortized cost.

The Bank also takes into account the length of time and the extent to which the market value of the security has been less than cost and changes in global and regional economic conditions and changes related to specific issuers or industries that could adversely affect these values.
The Bank as a result of its analysis has determined that unrealized losses on Discount Bonds are not temporary, consequently the Bank has recorded an other-than temporary impairment for U.S. GAAP purposes. Therefore the fair value of the security was determined on the balance sheet date based on their market value and will constitute the new cost basis for the asset.

· | Others

Under Argentine Banking GAAP, as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, these Bonar 2017 Bonds, Boden 2015 Bonds, unquoted securities issued by the BCRA and bills issued by the Province of Buenos Aires have been recorded at cost. This value increases monthly on the basis of the internal rate of return resulting from the interest rate which, used as discount, matches the cash flow’s present value with the initial value. Under U.S. GAAP these securities were considered available for sale securities according with ASC 320 and recorded at fair value with the unrealized gains and losses recognized as a charge or credit to equity through other comprehensive income.
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011 the following table shows the amortized cost, book value and fair value of the mentioned bonds:

The Bank has evaluated whether there was a decline in the value of the security that is other-than temporary as defined by ASC 320-10.
The Bank as a result of its analysis has determined that unrealized losses on bills issued by the Province of Buenos Aires are temporary in nature based on its ability and intent to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery, the financial condition of the issuer and the recoveries in fair values after the balance sheet date. In addition, the the bank has performed an impairment analysis for the rest of their portfolio and no other than temporary impairment were detected.
f. Provincial Public Debt
As of June 2002, the Bank offered to exchange certain loans to Argentine provincial governments for loans or securities of the Argentine National Government; however the exchange had not been finalized until 2003. As these loans were performing no provision was recorded under U.S. GAAP in accordance with ASC 310-10.
In 2003, the Bank tendered in the exchange under Decree N°1579/02 almost all its portfolio of loans to provincial governments and received securities of the Argentine National Government (“BOGAR”).
For U.S. GAAP purposes and in accordance with ASC 310-20 satisfaction of one monetary asset (in this case a loan) by the receipt of another monetary asset (in this case BOGAR) from the creditor is generally based on the market value of the asset received in satisfaction of the debt. In this particular case, the BOGAR being received is significantly different in structure and in interest rates than the loans swapped. Therefore, such amounts should initially be recognized at their market value. The estimated fair value of the securities received will constitute the cost basis of the asset. Any difference between the old asset and the fair value of the new asset is recognized as a gain or loss. The difference between the cost basis and the amount expected to be collected will be amortized on an effective yield basis over the life of the bond.

g. Trouble debt restructuring
On January 14, 2004, the Bank refinanced its outstanding defaulted debt. Under Argentine Banking GAAP the restructuring of the debt was treated as an exchange of debt instruments with substantially different terms. As a result, the Bank removed the original loans and its related accrued interest payable and recognized new debt instruments and associated cash payments for interest payable and for certain principal settlements, resulting in a gain on restructuring of Ps. 783,698. Under Argentine Banking GAAP, expenses incurred in a trouble debt restructuring are reported in earnings.
For U.S. GAAP purposes, the restructuring of the debt was accounted for in accordance with ASC 470 as the creditors made certain concessions due to the financial difficulties of the Bank. ASC 470 requires that a comparison be made between the future cash outflows associated with the new debt instruments (including interest), and the recorded amount of the payables at the time of restructuring. Gain on trouble debt restructuring is only recognized when the carrying amount of the payable at the time of restructuring exceeds the total future cash payments specified by the new debt terms, and only for the difference between the book value of the old debt and the future cash flows of the new debt. The total future cash outflows associated with the new debt instruments exceeded the carrying value of the old debts for some payables. The gain on restructuring recorded under U.S. GAAP was lower than the gain recorded under Argentine Banking GAAP and therefore, the carrying amount of the new debt instruments under U.S. GAAP was greater than the amount recorded under Argentine Banking GAAP and a new effective interest rate was determined, which equates the present value of the future cash payments specified by the new debt instruments with the carrying amount of the old debt instruments. Under U.S. GAAP, expenses incurred in a trouble debt restructuring are reported in earnings.
Subsequent to the restructuring, the bank has prepaid certain tranches of the debt. As a result of such prepayments and because the amount of the debt is greater for U.S. GAAP purposes the amount of the gain or loss recognized for Argentine banking GAAP its different to the amount recognized for U.S. GAAP purposes.
The Bank has repurchased part of the debt maturing in 2010 and 2013. For U.S. GAAP purposes, these transactions were considered as an extinguishment of debt.
As mentioned in note 10 the bank carries long-term Bonds held in its portfolio for purposes of their possible exchange with holders that did not participate in the initial offering. For U.S. GAAP purposes the bonds held by the bank are considered as debt extinguishment.
Shareholders’ Equity adjustment between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP as of June 30, 2010 amounted to Ps. (71,453). As of June 30, 2012 and 2011 there is no equity adjustment, therefore, net income reconciliation includes the reversal of the 2010 shareholders’ equity adjustment for the period ended June 30, 2011.

h. Financial liabilities
As described in note 17, the bank has issued several series of negotiable obligations in different terms and conditions. Under Argentine Banking GAAP, the costs of originating such instruments have been charged to the Income Statement at the issuance date.
Under U.S.GAAP, and according to ASC 835-30-45-3, issue cost should be reported in the balance sheet as deferred charges. In addition, ASC 470-10-35-2 states that debt issue costs should be amortized over the some period used in the interest cost determination.
i. Securitizations
Banco Hipotecario and BACS Banco de Crédito y Securitización S.A. have securitized certain of their mortgage and personal loans originated by the retail banks on their behalf through the transfer of such loans to a special purpose trust which issues multiple classes of bonds and certificates of participation.
Tarshop S.A. enters into ongoing revolving-period securitization programs transferring credit card receivables to trusts in exchange for cash and retained interests in the trusts (known as certificates of participation).
Under Argentine Banking GAAP, these transactions were accounted for as sales and the debt securities and certificates retained by the Bank are accounted for at cost plus accrued interest for the debt securities, and the equity method is used to account for the residual interest in the trust.

a) | Adoption of ASU 2009-17

Effective July 1, 2010, the Bank implemented new accounting guidance provided by SFAS 166 and 167 (ASU 2009-16 and ASU 2009-17, respectively, under the new codification), which amend the accounting for transfers of financial assets and consolidation of variable interest entities (VIEs).
The new guidance eliminates the concept of qualified special purpose entities (“QSPEs”) that were previously exempt from consolidation and introduces a new framework for determining the primary beneficiary of a VIE. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is required to consolidate the assets and liabilities of the VIE. Therefore, the Bank must evaluate all existing securitization trusts that formerly qualified as QSPEs to determine whether they must be consolidated in accordance with ASU 2009-17. An entity is considered a VIE if it possesses one of the following characteristics:

· | Insufficient Equity Investment at Risk
· | Equity lacks decision-making rights

· | Equity with non-substantive voting rights
· | Lacking the obligation to Absorb an Entity´s Expected Losses

· | Lacking the right to receive an Entity´s expected residual returns

Under the new guidance, the primary beneficiary is the party that has both (1) the power to direct the activities of an entity that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; and (2) through its interests in the VIE, the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
To assess whether the Bank has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance, the Bank considers all facts and circumstances, including its role in establishing the VIE and its ongoing rights and responsibilities. This assessment includes, first, identifying the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; and second, identifying which party, if any, has power over those activities.
As a consequence of this assessment, the Bank was deemed to be the primary beneficiary of these securitization trusts because the Bank has the power to direct the activities of these VIEs through its servicing responsibilities and duties. Additionally, the Bank through its retained interests held in these securitizations has the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIEs.
Under ASC 810-10-65, the Bank should measure the components of the newly consolidated financial trusts at their carrying amounts as of the adoption date. The Bank must determine the amounts of the assets, liabilities, and non-controlling interests of the newly consolidated financial trusts, that would have been recorded in the Bank’s financial statements as of July 1st 2010, as if ASU 2009-17 had been effective as of the date of the Bank’s initial involvement with the financial trusts. Any difference between the net amount added (net assets of each financial trusts where the Bank is primary beneficiary) from the Bank’s balance sheet and the amount of any previously recognized retained interest is recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of June 30, 2011.

As of and for the twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010
(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)
As a result of this new accounting guidance under U.S. GAAP, the Bank consolidated certain VIEs and former QSPEs that were previously unconsolidated. The table below presents the assets and liabilities of the financial trusts which have been consolidated for U.S. GAAP purposes:

| July 1, 2010
Total Assets (a) | Ps. 1,312,340
Total liabilities (b) | Ps. 1,100,109
Certificates of Participation | Ps. 212,231

(a) Includes cash and due from banks, loans net of allowances and other assets
(b) Includes debt securities and other liabilities
The net effect of the accounting change on July 1, 2010 shareholders’ equity was a Ps. 61,286 charge to retained earnings, primarily from the decrease in the allowance for loan losses, as well as Ps. 119,163 charge to accumulate other comprehensive income, for the net unrealized gains on available-for-sale debt securities in newly consolidated VIEs.

b) | After adoption of ASU 2009-17 as of June 30, 2012 and 2011

i) Trusts qualified as VIE as of June 30, 2010
For U.S. GAAP purposes, as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 - the Bank consolidated certain VIE’s in which the Bank had a controlling financial interest and for which it is the primary beneficiary. Therefore, the Bank reconsolidated their net assets under BACS Funding I, BACS Funding II, BHSA I, BACS III, CHA IX, CHA X and CHA XI and re-established its loan loss reserves under ASC 450-20. See Note 32.b. for allowance for loan losses.
No servicing assets or liabilities have been recognized.
ii) Trusts qualified as QSPE as of June 2010
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011 BACS I, BHN II, BHN III, BHN IV, CHA II, CHA III, CHA IV, CHA V, CHA VI, CHA VII and CHA VIII trusts, formerly qualified as QSPE, were considered a variable interest entity. In accordance with ASC 810, the Bank was deemed to be the primary beneficiary of these trusts and, therefore, the Bank reconsolidated the net assets of the mentioned trusts and re-established its loan loss reserves under ASC 450-20. See Note 32.b. for allowance for loan losses.
No servicing assets or liabilities have been recognized.
iii) Trusts issued after the twelve month period ended June 30, 2010

| The following trusts CHA XII, CHA XIII, CHA XIV, BACS Personales I, BACS Personales II, BACS Personales III, Tarjeta Shopping Series LXVII, Tarjeta Shopping Series LXVIII and Tarjeta Shopping Series LXVIV were considered VIEs.

As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, for U.S. GAAP purposes, the Bank consolidated these trusts in which the Bank had a controlling financial interest and for which it is the primary beneficiary. Therefore, the Bank reconsolidated their net assets and re-established its loan loss reserves under ASC 450-20. See Note 32.b. for allowance for loan losses.
No servicing assets or liabilities have been recognized.

iv) Trusts incorporated as a consequence of the acquisition of Tarshop S.A.
As of June 30, 2011 and 2012 financial trusts Tarjeta Shopping Series LXII, LXIII, LXIV, LXV and LXVI were considered to be variable interest entities: Therefore, the Bank reconsolidated their net assets, eliminated the gain or loss recognized on the sale of receivables when the carrying value of transferred credit card receivables differs from the amount of cash and certificates of participation received, eliminated the servicing liabilities and re-established its loan loss reserves under ASC 450-20. See Note 32.b. for allowance for loan losses.
The total shareholders´ Equity adjustment between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to Ps. (3,639) and Ps. (3,220), respectively.
c) Before adoption of ASU 2009-17 as of June 30, 2010
As of June 30, 2010, under U.S. GAAP, there were two key accounting determinations that must be made relating to securitizations. A decision must be made as to whether a transfer would be considered a sale under U.S. GAAP, resulting in the transferred assets being removed from our consolidated balance sheet with a gain or loss recognized. Alternatively, the transfer would be considered a secured borrowing, resulting in recognition of a liability in our consolidated balance sheet. The second key determination to be made was whether the securitization vehicle must be consolidated and included in our consolidated balance sheet or whether such securitization vehicle was sufficiently independent that it does not need to be consolidated.
i) Trusts formerly qualified as VIE
For U.S. GAAP purposes, as of June 30, 2010 the Bank consolidated certain VIE’s in which the Bank had a controlling financial interest and for which it is the primary beneficiary. Therefore, the Bank reconsolidated their net assets under BACS Funding I, BACS Funding II, BHSA I, BACS III, CHA IX, CHA X and CHA XI and re-established its loan loss reserves under ASC 450-20. See Note 32.b. for allowance for loan losses.
No servicing assets or liabilities have been recognized.
ii) Trusts formerly qualified as QSPE
The transfers of financial assets related to the creation of certain trusts were considered sales for U.S. GAAP purposes under ASC 860-10 and for that reason debt securities and certificates retained by the Bank were considered to be “available for sale securities” under U.S. GAAP. Therefore, the Bank did not reconsolidate these trusts: BACS I, BHN II, BHN III, BHN IV, CHA II, CHA III, CHA IV, CHA V, CHA VI, CHA VII and CHA VIII.
The retained interests were initially recorded at an amount equal to a portion of the previous aggregate carrying amount of assets sold and retained. The portion was determinated based on the relative fair values of the assets sold and assets retained as of the date of the transfer based on their allocated book value using the relative fair value allocation method.
Subsequently, the unrealized gains (losses) on these securities were reported as an adjustment to shareholder’s equity, unless unrealized losses were deemed to be other than temporary in accordance with ASC 325-40.
The fair value of these retained interests in the trusts was determined based upon an estimate of cash flows to be collected by the Bank as holder of the retained interests, discounted at an estimated market rate and will constitute the new cost basis of these securities.
Based on the mentioned above as of June 30, 2010 the Bank recognized the following adjustments:

a) | The effect of accounting the certificates of participation in BHN II and BHN III, BHN IV and BACS I as available for sale securities that includes the recognition of other than temporary impairment for a 100% of the carrying values of such securities as of June 30, 2006, considering the economic projections as of those dates and the declarative actions mentioned in Note 20. During the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2007, expectations about the recoverability of such securities have significantly changed considering among others, (a) decisions of the Supreme Court related to pesification matters and (b) new expectations about the CER, which adjusts the face value of the senior debt securities issued by the trust. The fair value of the securities is determined based on expected cash flows, discounted at a market interest rate. Increases in the fair value of these securities are recorded in other comprehensive income. As of June 30, 2010, such carrying values were determined based upon an estimate of cash flows to be remitted to us as holder of the retained interests discounted at an estimated market rate and;

(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)

b) | The fair value recognition of the certificates of participation and debt securities held by the Bank from certain securitization trusts considered sales under U.S. GAAP and classified as available for sale securities.

The total shareholders´ Equity adjustment between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP as of June 30, 2010 amounted to Ps. (51,427).
Additionally, servicing assets and/or liabilities have been analyzed by the Bank, concluding that the benefits of servicing are not expected to be adequate compensation. Consequently a servicing liability of Ps. 634 as of June 30, 2010, has been recorded for U.S. GAAP purposes.
Additional information required by U.S. GAAP
The Bank adopted ASC 860-10 and ASC 810-10 which require additional disclosures about its involvement with consolidated VIE’s and expanded the population of VIE’s to be disclosed. The table below presents the assets and liabilities of the financial trusts which have been consolidated for U.S. GAAP purposes:

|  | June 30, 2012 |
Cash and due from banks |  | Ps. 51,959 |
Loans (net of allowances) |  |  | 1,539,063 |
Other assets |  |  | 290,248 |
Total Assets |  | Ps. 1,881,270 |
Debt Securities |  | Ps. 1,608,873 |
Certificates of Participation |  |  | 227,328 |
Other liabilities |  |  | 45,069 |
Total Liabilities |  | Ps. 1,881,270 |

The Bank’s maximum loss exposure, which amounted to Ps. 1,881,270, is based on the unlikely event that all of the assets in the VIE’s become worthless and incorporates potential losses associated with assets recorded on the Bank’s Balance Sheet. Nevertheless, under Argentine Law the Debt securities will be paid exclusively with the securitized assets.
j. Intangible Assets
Software costs
Under Argentine Banking GAAP fees paid for a re-engineering project and for restructuring expenses incurred in relation to certain equity transactions are recognized as an intangible asset and amortized in a maximum of five years. Such cost should be expensed as incurred under U.S. GAAP.
Under Argentine Banking GAAP, the Bank capitalizes costs relating to all three of the stages of software development. Under ASC 350-40 defines three stages for the costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use: the preliminary project stage, the application development stage and the post-implementation operation stage. Only the second stage costs should be capitalized.
Shareholders´ Equity adjustment between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to Ps. (10,328) and Ps. (5,970), respectively.

Other intangible assets
On January 13, 2011, Tarshop S.A. acquired from APSA Media S.A., previously Metroshop S.A., a portfolio of credit cards delinquent by less than 60 days; a contractual position in contracts for the issuance of credit cards; the accounts of customers, the lease agreements and movable property at certain branches and the contracts of employment with personnel under a labor relationship.
Under Argentine Banking GAAP, no intangible assets should be recognized in accordance with these transactions.
Under U.S. GAAP, ASC 350-30 defines that an intangible asset which is acquired either individually or with a group of other assets shall be recognized. Assets are recognized based on their cost to the acquiring entity, which generally includes the transaction costs of the assets acquisition, and no gain or loss is recognized unless the fair value of noncash assets given as consideration differs the assets’ carrying amount on the acquiring entity’s books. The cost of a group of assets acquired shall be allocated to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values and shall not give rise to goodwill.
Shareholders´ Equity adjustment between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to Ps. 11,047 and Ps. 14,203, respectively, related to the contractual position in contracts for the issuance of credit cards and the accounts of customers recorded as intangibles assets for U.S. GAAP purposes.
Business combination
i) Acquisiciton of Tarshop S.A.
On December 22, 2009, the Board of Directors has approved the purchase of 80% of the share capital of Tarshop SA. Such shareholding consists of 107,037,152 non-endorsable, registered ordinary shares, par value 1 Peso per share, and entitled to one vote per share, in turn equivalent to 107,037,152 votes. The transaction was subject to the BCRA approval.
The sales price amounted to US$ 26.8 million, 20% (US$ 5.4 million) of which was paid on December 29, 2009. However, the contract had a reimbursement clause according to which the advance would be returned to the Bank if the transaction was not approved. On August 30, 2010, the Financial and Exchange Institutions Superintendency of the Argentine Central Bank gave its consent to the referred purchase and on September 13, 2010, the remaining balance was paid.
The incorporation of Tarshop into the economic group led by Banco Hipotecario will help to channel the market’s demand for consumer finance thus allowing Banco Hipotecario to focus mainly on meeting its strategic goals of offering a comprehensive solution for home mortgages, both at the time of acquiring the property through a mortgage loan and later on when equipping it through the financing of the products necessary via personal loans and/or the use of the credit card. Tarshop is a separated segment considering how the business is analyzed by the management.
Pursuant to Argentine Central Bank rules, and due to the difference between the acquisition cost and the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities acquired as of September 13, 2010, a goodwill amounting to Ps. 29,568 was recorded under Intangible Assets – Goodwill. This goodwill is subsequently charged to Income on a straight-line basis during 60 months. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011 the Bank has a balance of Ps. 24,147 and Ps. 27,104, respectively, related to the goodwill.
Under U.S. GAAP, ASC 805 requires the acquisition of controlling interest of Tarshop S.A. to be accounted for as a business combination applying the purchase method, recognizing all net assets acquired at their fair value. The Bank applies the following guidance:
- if the consideration transferred exceeds the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the acquirer shall recognize goodwill as of the acquisition date, or,
- if the consideration transferred is lower than the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the acquirer shall recognize the resulting gain in earnings on the acquisition date.
The following table summarizes the consideration transferred and the fair value of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date:

For the purposes of calculating the goodwill resulting from the business combination, the entity has calculated the fair values of the identifiable net assets of the acquiree as of August 31, 2010 as no significant circumstances have taken place between that date and the acquisition date.
The intangible assets identified as part of the acquisition where customer relationships, trademark and workforce amounted to Ps. 24,394 as of August 31, 2010 subject to amortization.

ii) Acquisiciton of addition shares of Bacs.
As mentioned in note 1.c, on May 24, 2012, the Financial and Exchange Institutions Superintendency of the Argentine Central Bank gave its consent to the purchase of the 17.5% of BACS Banco de Crédito y Securitización S.A. shares, which price was paid in two installments. The first one on March 30, 2011 (20%) and the last one on June 11, 2002 (80%). As a result, the Bank’s new shareholding in BACS’s capital stock increased from 70% to 87.5%.
The Bank has recognized, under Argentine Banking GAAP a gain of Ps. 3,6 thousand corresponding to the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the related carrying value of the NCI acquired.
For U.S. GAAP purposes an acquisition on additional interest obtained when the control is maintained should be accounted for as an equity transaction. As such the Bank under USGAAP: a) do not recognize a gain in the income statement, b) recognize the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid and the related carrying value of the NCI acquired in the controlling interests´ equity and c) reclassify the carrying value of the NCI obtained from the NCI to the controlling interests´ equity.
iii) Acquisition of BACS Administradora de activos SA SGFCI
On April 26. 2012 BACS Banco de Crédito y Securitización S.A. acquired 85% of the shares belonging to BACS Administradora de activos S.A. S.G.F.C.I. (former FCMI Argentina Financial Corporation S.A. S.G.F.C.I.). The purchase price was Ps. 6 million.
Pursuant to Argentine Central Bank rules, and due to the difference between the acquisition cost and the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities acquired as of April 30, 2012, a goodwill amounting to Ps. 4,729 was recorded under Intangible Assets – Goodwill. This goodwill is subsequently charged to Income on a straight-line basis during 60 months. As of June 30, 2012 the Bank has a balance of Ps. 4,649 related to the goodwill.

BANCO HIPOTECARIO SA AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of and for the twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010
(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)
Under U.S. GAAP, ASC 805 requires the acquisition of controlling interest of BACS Administradora de activos S.A. S.G.F.C.I. (former FCMI Argentina Financial Corporation S.A. S.G.F.C.I.) to be accounted for as a business combination applying the purchase method, recognizing all net assets acquired at their fair value.
The Bank applies the following guidance:
- if the consideration transferred exceeds the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the acquirer shall recognize goodwill as of the acquisition date, or,
- if the consideration transferred is lower than the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the acquirer shall recognize the resulting gain in earnings on the acquisition date.
The following table summarizes the consideration transferred and the fair value of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date:

Acquisition date |  | April 30, 2012 |
Fair value of consideration transferred: |  |  |
Cash |  | Ps. 6,184 |
Total |  | Ps. 6,184 |
Recognised amounts of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed: |  |  |
Assets acquired |  |  | 3,898 |
Liabilities acquired |  |  | (2,186 | )
Total net assets |  |  | 1,712 |
Non-controlling interest |  |  | (256 | )
Goodwill |  | Ps. 4,728 |

Goodwill amortization, under Argetine Banking GAAP has been reversed for U.S. GAAP purposes.
k. Impairment of fixed assets and foreclosed assets
Under Argentine Banking GAAP, fixed assets and foreclosed assets are restated for inflation using the WPI index at February 28, 2003. As such, the balances of fixed assets and foreclosed assets were increased approximately 120%.
In accordance with ASC 360-10 such assets are subject to impairment tests in certain circumstances. Because projected cash flows associated with fixed assets and foreclosed assets are insufficient to recover the restated carrying amounts of the assets, those assets should be tested for impairment. During 2002, in the absence of credible market values for our fixed and foreclosed assets, the Bank under U.S. GAAP reversed the restatement of fixed and foreclosed assets.
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
As of June 2012 and 2011, no additional impairment was recorded in fixed and foreclosed assets.
Shareholders´ Equity adjustment between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to Ps. (40,238) and Ps. (41,250), respectively. The differences between periods are due to depreciation recorded under Argentine Banking GAAP.
l. Non-controlling interest
Argentine Banking GAAP rules require recording non-controlling interests as a component of the liabilities. ASC 810 requires recording such interests as shareholders’ equity. In addition, the U.S. GAAP adjustment represents the allocation to the non-controlling interest of non-wholly owned subsidiaries of certain U.S. GAAP adjustments related to such subsidiaries.

m. Vacation Provision
The Bank’s policy for vacation benefits is to expense such benefits as taken. For U.S. GAAP purposes, the vacation accrual is based on an accrual basis, where earned but untaken vacation is recognized as a liability.
Shareholders´ Equity adjustment between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to Ps. (13,663) and Ps. (9,639), respectively.
n. Insurance Technical reserve
Until September 2003, the calculation of the local technical reserves performed by the Bank was the same as that used under U.S. GAAP.
On September 2003, the National Insurance Superintendency issued certain regulations on the calculation of reserves introducing changes to the local regulations. For U.S. GAAP purposes the Bank has accounted these types of transactions under ASC 944.
Therefore, the technical reserves for the twelve month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were adjusted for U.S. GAAP purposes. Shareholders’ equity adjustment as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to Ps. (5,520) and Ps. (6,140), respectively.
In a consolidated basis, the Bank has recognized a shareholders’ equity adjustment between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP that amounted to Ps. 179,165 and Ps. 124,224, as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for the recognition, measurement, financial statement presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, there were no uncertain tax positions.
o. Capitalization of interest cost
Under Argentine Banking GAAP, during the process of construction of an asset the capitalization of interest is not recognized.
For U.S. GAAP purposes, as stated in ASC 835-20 the amount of interest cost to be capitalized for qualifying assets is intended to be that portion of the interest cost incurred during the assets’ acquisition periods that theoretically could have been avoided (for example, by avoiding additional borrowings or by using the funds expended for the assets to repay existing borrowings) if expenditures for the assets had not been made.
The amount capitalized in an accounting period shall be determined by applying an interest rate to the average amount of accumulated expenditures for the asset during the period. The capitalization rates used in an accounting period shall be based on the rates applicable to borrowings outstanding during the period.
The total amount of interest cost capitalized in an accounting period shall not exceed the total amount of interest cost incurred by the enterprise in that period.
Shareholders’ Equity adjustment between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP as of June 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to Ps. 2,372 and Ps. 2,202, respectively.
p. Deferred Income Tax
Argentine Banking GAAP requires income taxes to be recognized on the basis of amounts due in accordance with Argentine tax regulations. Temporary differences between the financial reporting and income tax bases of accounting are therefore not considered in recognizing income taxes.
In accordance with ASC 740-10 under U.S. GAAP income taxes are recognized on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of our assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for tax loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recorded or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized for that component of net deferred tax assets which is “more likely than not” that it will not be recoverable.
As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, and based on the tax projections performed, the Bank believes that is more likely than not that it will recover the net operating tax loss carry forward and all the temporary differences, with future taxable income.

(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)
In a consolidated basis, the Bank has recognized a shareholders’ equity adjustment between Argentine Banking GAAP and U.S. GAAP that amounted to Ps. 179,165 and Ps. 124,224, as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for the recognition, measurement, financial statement presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, there were no uncertain tax positions.
The Bank classifies income tax-related interest and penalties as income taxes in the financial statements. The adoption of this pronouncement had no effect on the Bank’s overall financial position or results of operations.
The following table shows the tax years open for examination as of June 30, 2012, by major tax jurisdictions in which the Bank operates:

Jurisdiction |  | Tax year
Argentina |  | 2007 – 2011

q. Items in process of collection
The Bank does not give accounting recognition to checks drawn on the Bank or other banks, or other items to be collected until such time as the related item clears or is accepted. Such items are recorded by the Bank in memorandum accounts. US banks, however, account for such items through balance sheet clearing accounts at the time the items are presented to the Bank.
The Bank’s assets and liabilities would be increased by approximately Ps. 161,448, Ps. 76,784 and Ps. 59,264, had U.S. GAAP been applied at June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

II. | Additional disclosure requirements:

r. Fair Value Measurements Disclosures
Effective January 1, 2009, ASC 820-10:

· | Defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, and establishes a framework for measuring fair value;

· | Establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date;

· | Nullifies the guidance in ASC 815-10, which required the deferral of profit at inception of a transaction involving a derivative financial instrument in the absence of observable data supporting the valuation technique;

· | Eliminates large position discounts for financial instruments quoted in active markets and requires consideration of the Bank’s creditworthiness when valuing liabilities; and

· | Expands disclosures about instruments measured at fair value.

ASC 825-10 provides an option to elect fair value as an alternative measurement for selected financial assets, financial liabilities, unrecognized firm commitments and written loan commitments not previously recorded at fair value. Under ASC 825-10, fair value is used for both the initial and subsequent measurement of the designated assets, liabilities and commitments, with the changes on fair value recognized in net income. As a result of ASC 825-10 analysis, the Bank has not elected to apply fair value accounting for any of its financial instruments not previously carried at fair value.

Valuation hierarchy
ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Effective January 2010, the Bank adopted new accounting guidance under ASC 820 that requires additional disclosures including, among other things, (i) the amounts and reasons for certain significant transfers among the three hierarchy levels of inputs, (ii) the gross, rather than net, basis for certain level 3 roll forward information, (iii) use of a “class” rather than a “major category” basis for assets and liabilities, and (iv) valuation techniques and inputs used to estimate level 2 and level 3 fair value measurements.
In addition, ASC 820-10 establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows.

· | Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

· | Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

· | Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Determination of fair value
Fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If listed prices or quotes are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that use primarily market-based or independently-sourced market parameters, including interest rate yield curves, option volatilities and currency rates. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. These adjustments include amounts to reflect counterparty credit quality, the Bank’s creditworthiness, liquidity and unobservable parameters that are applied consistently over time.
The Bank believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies, or assumptions, to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.
The following section describes the valuation methodologies used by the Bank to measure various financial instruments at fair value, including an indication of the level in the fair-value hierarchy in which each instrument is generally classified. Where appropriate, the description includes details of the valuation models, the key inputs to those models as well as any significant assumptions.
Assets (by Class of asset)

a) | Securities

As of June 30, 2012 and 2011 the Bank’s securities are classified within level 1of the valuation hierarchy using quoted prices available in the active market. Level 1 securities includes government bonds and instruments issued by BCRA and corporate securities. Furthermore the Bank´s instruments issued by BCRA with no volatility published by the BCRA and bills issued by the Province of Buenos Aires, are classified within Level 2 using quoted prices available of similar assets.

b) | Securities receivable under repurchase agreements

The Bank’s securities receivable under repurchase agreements which do not qualify for sale accounting for U.S. GAAP purposes, are classified within level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. To estimate the fair value of these securities, quoted prices are available in an active market.

Account receivable charge-off and recoveries
Under Argentine GAAP, recoveries on previously charge-off account receivable are recorded directly to income and the amount of charge-off account receivable in excess of amounts specifically allocated is recorded as a direct charge to the income statement. The Bank does not partially charge off troubled account receivable until final disposition of the credit, rather, the allowance is maintained on a credit-by –credit basis for its estimated settlement value. Under U.S. GAAP, all charge off and recovery activity is recorded through the allowance for account receivable losses account. Further, account receivables are generally charged to the allowance account when all or part of the credit is considered uncollectible.
Impaired loans
ASC 310, requires a creditor to measure impairment of a loan based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, or at the loan’s observable market price or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. This Statement is applicable to all loans (including those restructured in a troubled debt restructuring involving amendment of terms), except large groups of smaller-balance homogenous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment. Loans are considered impaired when, based on Management’s evaluation, a borrower will not be able to fulfill its obligation under the original loan terms.
The following table discloses the amounts of loans considered impaired in accordance with ASC 310 updated by ASU 2010 - 20, as of June 30, 2012 and 2011:

Credit Quality
The following tables contain the loan portfolio classification by credit quality indicator set forth by the Argentine Central Bank.

BANCO HIPOTECARIO SA AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of and for the twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010
(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)
Commercial Portfolio:

Loan Classification | Description
1. Normal Situation | The debtor is widely able to meet its financial obligations, demonstrating significant cash flows, a liquid financial situation, an adequate financial structure, a timely payment record, competent management, available information in a timely, accurate manner and satisfactory internal controls. The debtor is in the upper 50% of a sector of activity that is operating properly and has good prospects.

2. With Special Follow-up | Cash flow analysis reflects that the debt may be repaid even though it is possible that the customer’s future payment ability may deteriorate without a proper follow-up.

This category is divided into two subcategories:
(2.a). Under Observation;
(2.b). Under Negotiation or Refinancing Agreements.

3. With Problems | Cash flow analysis evidences problems to repay the debt, and therefore, if these problems are not solved, there may be some losses.
4. High Risk of Insolvency | Cash flow analysis evidences that repayment of the full debt is highly unlikely.

5. Uncollectible | The amounts in this category are deemed total losses. Even though these assets may be recovered under certain future circumstances, inability to make payments is evident at the date of the analysis. It includes loans to insolvent or bankrupt borrowers.

Credit quality indicators for the commercial portfolio are reviewed, at a minimum, on a annual basis.

Consumer Portfolio:

Loan Classification | Description
1. Normal Situation | Loans with timely repayment or arrears not exceeding 31 days, both of principal and interest.

2. Low Risk | Occasional late payments, with a payment in arrears of more than 32 days and up to 90 days. A customer classified as “Normal” having been
| refinanced may be recategorized within this category, as long as he amortizes one principal installment (whether monthly or bimonthly) or repays 5% of principal.

3. Medium Risk | Some inability to make payments, with arrears of more than 91 days and up to 180 days. A customer classified as “Low Risk” having been refinanced may be recategorized within this category, as long as he amortizes two principal installments (whether monthly or bimonthly) or repays 5% of principal.
4. High Risk | Judicial proceedings demanding payment have been initiated or arrears of more than 180 days and up to one year. A customer classified as “Medium Risk” having been refinanced may be recategorized within this category, as long as he amortizes three principal installments (whether monthly or bimonthly) or repays 10% of principal.

5. Uncollectible | Loans to insolvent or bankrupt borrowers, or subject to judicial proceedings, with little or no possibility of collection, or with arrears in excess of one year.

Credit quality indicators for the consumer portfolio are reviewed on a monthly basis.

u. Risks and Uncertainties
As of June 30, 2012, the Bank’s exposure to the Argentine public sector represented approximately 4.9% of total assets under Argentine Banking GAAP. Although the Bank’s exposure to the Argentine public sector consists mostly of performing assets, the realization of the Bank’s assets, its income and cash flow generation capacity and future financial condition may be dependent on the Argentine government's ability to comply with its payment obligations, and on its ability to establish an economic policy that is succesful in promoting sustainable economic growth in the long run.

BANCO HIPOTECARIO SA AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of and for the twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010
(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)
All transactions involving the purchase of foreign currency must be settled through the single free exchange market (Mercado Único Libre de Cambios, or “MULC”) where the Central Bank supervises the purchase and sale of foreign currency. Under Executive Branch Decree No. 260/2002, the Argentine government set up an exchange market through which all foreign currency exchange transactions are made. Such transactions are subject to the regulations and requirements imposed by the Central Bank. Under Communication “A” 3471, as amended, the Central Bank established certain restrictions and requirements applicable to foreign currency exchange transactions. If such restrictions and requirements are not met, criminal penalties shall be applied.
On October 28, 2011, the Federal Administration of Public Revenues (Administración Federal de Ingresos Públicos, “AFIP”) established an Exchange Transactions Inquiry Program (“Inquiry Program”) through which the entities authorized by the Central Bank to deal in foreign exchange must inquire and register through an IT system the total peso amount of each exchange transaction at the moment it is closed. All foreign exchange sale transactions, whether involving foreign currency or banknotes, irrespective of their purpose or allocation, are subject to this inquiry and registration system, which determines whether Transactions are “Validated” or “Inconsistent”.
Pursuant to Communication “A” 5239, afterward replaced by Communication “A” 5245, in the case of sales of foreign exchange (foreign currency or banknotes) for the formation of off-shore assets by residents without the obligation of subsequently allocating it to specific purpose, entities authorized to deal in foreign exchange may only allow transactions through the MULC by those clients who have obtained the validation and who comply with the rest of the requirements set forth in the applicable foreign exchange regulations. Sales of foreign exchange other than for the formation of off-shore assets by residents without a specific purpose are also exempted from the Inquiry Program, although, the financial entities must verify that the other requirements established by the MULC are accomplished.
According to Communication “A” 5264, as amended, in general terms the access to the foreign exchange market for resident in order to pay services, debts and profits to non-residents has no limits or restrictions. The access to the MULC requires the filing of certain documentation by residents evidencing the validity of transactions for which the funds are purchase for its remittance abroad. Communication “A” 5236, item 4.2. which regulated the outflow of fund allowing residents to access to the MULC for the formation of off-shore assets without a specific allocation by residents has been suspended and, up to now, the Central Bank has not issued any other measure or provisions in this regard.
On August 6, 2012, Resolution #3210 was replaced by Resolution #3356 enacted by AFIP. This resolution sets forth more restrictions for the access to the foreign exchange market, in particular for the outflow of funds made by residents. Both resolutions (3210 and 3356) are related with Communications “A” 5239 (currently abrogated) and 5245.
The Argentine government may, in the future, impose additional controls on the foreign exchange market and on capital flows from and into Argentina, in response to capital flight or depreciation of the Peso. These restrictions may have a negative effect on the economy and on our business if imposed in an economic environment where access to local capital is constrained.
v. U.S. GAAP estimates
Valuation reserves, impairment charges and estimates of market values on assets and step up bonds discounting, as established by the Bank for U.S. GAAP purposes are subject to significant assumptions of future cash flows and interest rates for discounting such cash flows. Losses on the exchange of government and provincial bonds were significantly affected by higher discount rates. Should the discount rates change in future years, the carrying amounts and charges to income and shareholders’ equity deficit will also change. In addition, as estimates of future cash flows change, so too will the carrying amounts which are dependent on such cash flows. It is possible that changes to the carrying amounts of loans, investments and other assets will be adjusted in the near term in amounts that are material to the Bank’s financial position and results of income.
w. Allowance for loan losses
Management believes that the current level of allowance for loan losses recorded for U.S. GAAP purposes are sufficient to cover incurred losses of the Bank’s loan portfolio as of June 30, 2012. Many factors can affect the Bank’s estimates of allowance for loan losses, including expected cash flows, volatility of default probability, migrations and estimated loss severity. The process of determining the level of the allowance for credit losses requires a high degree of judgment. It is possible that others, given the same information, may at any point in time reach different reasonable conclusions. If market conditions and economic uncertainties exist, it might result in higher credit losses and provision for credit losses in future periods.

(Expressed in thousands of Argentine pesos, except share data and as otherwise indicated)
33. Commencement of summary proceedings
The Bank has been notified of Resolution No. 286, dated July 2, 2010 issued by the Superintendent of Financial and Foreign Exchange Institutions whereby summary proceedings have been commenced against the Bank and its directors under section 8 of the Foreign Exchange Offences Law (as restated by Decree No. 480/95).
Under the above-mentioned proceedings, the Bank has been charged with the violation of certain provisions under Communications “A” 4087 and 4177 concerning early repayments of restructured external indebtedness for US$ 91,420,135 and Euros 2,803,965 in the period February 2004 through June 2005.
In the Bank’s and its legal counsels’ opinion, these summary proceedings are not likely to succeed and therefore, no contingency in this respect has been reflected in these financial statements.
On May 4, 2012, the Bank was notified of Resolution No. 186 dated April 25, 2012 by the Superintendent of Financial and Foreign Exchange Institutions, whereby summary proceedings have been commenced against the Bank and its directors under section 8 of the Foreign Exchange Offences Law (as restated by Decree No. 480/95).
In such proceedings, the entity has been charged with alleged violations of the provisions of Communications “A” 3640, 3645, 4347 and supplementary rules, due to the acquisition of good delivery silver bars with funds arising from its General Exchange Position.
The Bank is analyzing those proceedings.
34. Programa Crédito Argentino del Bicentenario para la Vivienda Única y Familiar (Pro.Cre.Ar)
On June 21, 2012, the Board of Directors approved the Bank’s participation as trustee of the Public Fiduciary Fund referred to as “Programa Crédito Argentino del Bicentenario para la Vivienda Única y Familiar” (Argentine Single Family Housing Program for the Bicentennial) (Pro.Cre.Ar.), as resolved by Decree No. 902/2012.
On July 18, 2012, the Bank, in its capacity as trustee, executed the “PROCREAR” Trust Agreement with the National State, in its capacity as trustor.
The referred agreement governs the rights and obligations between the parties, as well as the sundry duties to be performed by the Bank as trustee.
35. Subsequent events
On August 17, 2012 Banco Hipotecario issued Series IV Notes for an amount of Ps. 65,475, which accrue interest at 17.80% and will mature on May 14, 2013. Additionally, on the same day, the Bank issued Series V Notes for an amount of Ps. 85,264, which accrue interest at BADLAR + 375 basic points and will mature on February 17, 2014.
Tarshop S.A. issued Negotiable obligation Series VI on July 27, 2012 for a face value of Ps. 70,148, which accrue interest at BADLAR + 424 basic points and will mature on March 27, 2014.

NOTE 1: BUSINESS
Formation and Property Description
New Lipstick LLC (the "Company"), was organized as a Delaware limited liability company and commenced operations on November 3, 2010. The Company was formed among IRSA International, LLC ("IRSA"), Marciano Investment Group, LLC ("Marciano"), Avi Chicouri ("AVI"), Par Holdings, LLC ("PAR"), and Armenonville S.A. ("Armenonville"), collectively (the "Members"). IRSA is a wholly-owned subsidiary of TYRUS S.A. ("TYRUS"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anonima, a company whose shares are listed on the Buenos Aires and New York Stock Exchanges. The Company was formed in order to acquire 100% interest in Metropolitan 885 Third Avenue Leasehold LLC ("Metropolitan"), its wholly-owned subsidiary, and to provide management services to Metropolitan.
Metropolitan was organized for the purpose of acquiring and operating a 34 story Class A office tower commonly known as the Lipstick Building located at 885 Third Avenue in New York (the "Property"). Metropolitan leased the land which contains approximately 26,135 square feet. The Property was acquired on July 9, 2007 and contains approximately 635,800 square feet of rentable space.
On November 16, 2010 (the "Petition Date"), Metropolitan filed a voluntary pre-packaged plan of reorganization under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Chapter 11") in the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court") including a disclosure statement and plan of reorganization (the "Plan"). The Plan provided for, among other things, the extinguishment of 100% of the shares of Metropolitan 885 Third Avenue LLC and the issuance of the membership interest to the Company. The Plan was approved by Metropolitan's members and the Bankruptcy Court approved the Plan on December 22, 2010 with an effective date of December 30, 2010 (the "Effective Date").
Metropolitan accounted for the reorganization using "fresh start accounting" effective December 30, 2010. Accordingly, the forgiveness of debt was reflected in the predecessor entity's final statement of operations and all assets and liabilities were restated to reflect their reorganization value, which approximated fair values at the date of reorganization.
The Company operates under the guidelines of an Operating Agreement (the "Agreement") entered into by the Members on November 15, 2010. The manager of the Company is Lipstick Management, LLC (the "Manager"), a company affiliated to IRSA.
The Agreement calls for Class A and Class B Members. Class A Members are IRSA, Marciano, and Armenonville and Class B Members are AVI and PAR.
Class B Membership interests of any Class B Member shall be automatically converted, in whole and not in part, into an equal number of Class A Membership interests on the earlier to occur of the date on which the Manager certifies that all unreturned additional Class A capital contributions and all unreturned Class A capital contributions have been reduced to zero.
Any Class A Member, as defined in the Agreement, may transfer, directly or indirectly, any or all of its percentage interest as a Member in the Company to an unaffiliated third party, but the offering Member must first offer the Right of First Offer ("ROFO") to each of the Class A Members by written notice specifying the cash price and the other terms and conditions of the offer. Upon receipt of the ROFO notice, each of the offeree members has the right, exercisable in ten (10) days, to accept or decline the offer.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
Management is required to use estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Real Estate
Real estate consists of building, building improvements and tenant improvements and is stated at cost, which approximates fair value at the date of reorganization using fresh start accounting. Building and improvements are depreciated over 39 years. Tenant improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the terms of the respective leases.
Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred; major replacements and betterments are capitalized to building improvements and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
The Company reviews its long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is determined by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If the carrying value of the assets exceeds such cash flows, the assets are considered impaired. The impairment charge to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their estimated fair value. No impairment was recorded for the year ended June 30, 2012 or for the period from November 3, 2010 (inception) to June 30, 2011.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less upon acquisition to be cash equivalents.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalent accounts in financial institutions. The Company maintains its cash balances at two financial institutions. At times, such balances may be in excess of this Federal Deposit Insurance Company (“FDIC”) insurance limit. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, beginning December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2012, all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts are fully insured, regardless of the balances in the account and the ownership of the funds. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, these balances, including tenant security and escrow amounts were in excess of federally insurable limits by $4,153,245 and $5,850,215, respectively.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash represents amounts held in escrow, as required by the lender, to be used for real estate taxes, insurance and other qualified expenditures, as well as tenant security deposits.
Tenant Receivables
The Company carries its tenant receivables at the amount it expects to collect, less an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company evaluates its receivable and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts, based on a history of past write-offs, collections and current conditions.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes base rent on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Deferred rent receivable represents the amount by which straight-line rental revenue exceeded rents currently billed in accordance with the lease agreements.
Capitalized below market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rents (see Note 5).
Capitalized above market lease values are amortized as a decrease to base rents (see Note 5).
The Company also receives reimbursements from tenants for certain costs as provided for in the lease agreements. These costs include real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, common area maintenance and other recoverable costs in excess of a base year amount.
Deferred Ground Rents
Ground rent expense is accounted for on a straight-line basis over the non-cancelable terms of the ground leases. Subsequent to May 1, 2012, all future minimum increases in the non-cancelable ground rents consist of either 2.5% or 3.0% annual increases through May 1, 2068. The recording of the ground rent on a straight-line basis, as required by USGAAP, thereby includes recording a portion of the compounded annual increases due in the later years of the ground leases as an expense in the year ended June 30, 2012 and for the period November 3, 2010 (inception) to June 30, 2011 without consideration of the present value of these future required payments or consideration of future increases in the consumer price index. This has resulted in deferred ground rent payables in the amount of $50,269,817 and $17,020,772 as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. (see Note 7)
Lease Intangibles
Leasing costs and commissions incurred in connection with leasing activities are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the lives of the respective leases. Unamortized deferred leasing costs are charged to amortization expense upon early termination of the lease.
Above and below market leases and above market ground lease values were recorded on the Property's acquisition date based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflected the risk associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and ground lease, and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases and ground lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the leases.
Above market lease values are capitalized as an asset and amortized as a decrease to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The above market ground lease value is capitalized as an asset and amortized to ground rent expense over the remaining term of the ground lease. Below market lease values are capitalized as a liability and amortized as an increase to rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Lease Intangibles (continued)
The aggregate value of in-place leases were measured based on the difference between (i) the Property valued with existing in-place leases adjusted to market rental rates, and (ii) the Property valued as if vacant, based upon management's estimates. Management's estimates of value were made using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. Factors considered by management in their analysis included an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, management included real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods, which primarily were twelve months. Management also estimated costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.
The value of in-place leases are amortized to expense over the initial term of the respective leases, ranging from four months to fourteen years.
Income Taxes
No provision for income taxes is necessary in the accompanying financial statements because the Company has elected to be treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes. Income or loss of the Company is includible in the separate income tax returns of the Member. The Company's tax returns after 2008 are open and subject to examination. Management continually evaluates expiring statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax laws and new authoritative rulings.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of the December 30, 2010 acquisition of Metropolitan over the net of the amounts assigned to assets acquired, including identifiable intangible assets and liabilities assumed. In accordance with GAAP, the Company does not amortize goodwill but instead first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the Company is impaired. If so, it tests goodwill for impairment.
A goodwill impairment test consists of a comparison of each “reporting unit’s” (in the Company’s case, the Company as a whole) fair value with its carrying value. The fair value of the Company is an estimate of the amount for which the Company as a whole could be sold in a current transaction between willing parties. Generally, estimates of fair value are based on discounted cash flows. If the carrying value of the Company exceeds its estimated fair value, goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. Management has selected the end of the Company’s fiscal year as the date on which to either perform its annual impairment tests for goodwill or make the determination as to whether qualitative factors render it unnecessary.
For the year ended June 30, 2012 and for the period November 3, 2010 (inception) to June 30, 2011 no impairment of goodwill was identified during the annual impairment testing.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform to the current year financial statement presentation.

Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated, for potential recognition and disclosure, events subsequent to the date of the balance sheet through October 31, 2012, the date the financial statements were available to be issued.
NOTE 3: BUSINESS COMBINATION
Effective December 30, 2010, as described in Note 1, 100% of the shares of Metropolitan was extinguished and its membership interest was issued to the Company. This transaction has been accounted for as a business combination by the Company. In accordance with GAAP, the Company followed the guidance of the acquisition method of accounting. Management performed an analysis of the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the Effective Date.
The following summarizes the allocation of the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Metropolitan:
ASSETS

Real estate, net |  |  | 144,176,024 |
Lease intangibles, net |  |  | 42,657,041 |
Cash and cash equivalents |  |  | 6,258,385 |
Other assets |  |  | 4,905,698 |
Total assets |  |  | 197,997,148 |

LIABILITIES

Note payable |  |  | 115,000,000 |
Lease intangibles, net |  |  | 59,833,065 |
Other liabilities |  |  | 2,759,535 |
Total liabilities |  |  | 177,592,600 |
Net assets acquired |  |  | 20,404,548 |
Total consideration paid |  |  | 25,827,163 |
Goodwill |  |  | 5,422,615 |

The above estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on the information that was available as of the acquisition date to estimate the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The total consideration paid by the Company exceeded the fair value of net assets acquired from Metropolitan by $5,422,615. The excess has been allocated to goodwill.

NOTE 6: NOTES PAYABLE
Metropolitan was originally obligated to Royal Bank of Canada (the "Lender") pursuant to a loan agreement, dated July 9, 2007, for an aggregate principal balance of $210,000,000 (the "Original Principal" or the "Loan"). The Loan was evidenced by two note agreements, Note A and Note B (collectively, the "Note"), with a principal balance of $125,000,000 and $85,000,000, respectively. The Note required monthly payments of interest only through August 2013 and principal and interest through August 2017, the maturity date.
The Note bore interest at 6.58% per annum (the "Applicable Interest Rate") and was subject to an increase equal to the lesser of (i) the Applicable Interest Rate plus 5%, or (ii) the maximum interest rate that the borrower is permitted by law to pay (the "Default Rate") upon the occurrence of an event of default, as defined.
In June 2010, Metropolitan defaulted on its debt service payments and the Lender filed a summons and complaint against Metropolitan seeking to foreclose the Property and, as a result, Metropolitan was subject to interest at the Default Rate.
On December 30, 2010, pursuant to the Plan, the Note was amended and restated to provide for a reduction in the Original Principal of $210,000,000 to $130,000,000 (the "Amended Note"). The Member then made a principal repayment of $15,000,000 and, as a result, the outstanding balance of the Amended Note was $115,000,000 after the reorganization. The Amended Note bears interest at (i) the London InterBank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 400 basis points, or (ii) Prime Rate plus Prime Rate Margin, if converted into a Prime Rate Loan, as defined. The Amended Note provides for a maximum interest rate of 5.25% through February 29, 2012 and 6.25% from March 1, 2012 through August 31, 2015 and matures on August 1, 2017. The interest rate was 4.24% and 4.26% at June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Interest expenses amounted to $4,905,399 for the year ended June 30, 2012 and $2,448,145 for the period November 3, 2010 (inception) to June 30, 2011.

NOTE 6: NOTES PAYABLE (CONTINUED)
Pursuant to a cash management agreement with the Lender, all rents collected are required to be deposited in a clearing account and all funds are disbursed in accordance with the Loan agreement, including the funding of all reserve accounts. In addition, after payment of debt service, operating expenses and other expenses, as defined, forty percent (40%) of all the remaining cash flow in the cash management account is applied to the outstanding principal balance of the Loan on a monthly basis. As of June 30, 2012 and 2011, the outstanding principal balance was $113,314,086 and $114,443,211, respectively.
The Amended Note is collateralized by the Property including all related facilities, amenities, fixtures and personal property owned by the borrower.
The Company pledged a first priority security interest in the Company’s membership interest in Metropolitan to the Lender as collateral security for the Amended Note.
NOTE 7: GROUND LEASES
The Property was erected on a 26,135 square foot parcel of land (the "Site Area") of which 20,635 square feet is subject to a ground lease (the "Ground Lease") and an adjacent lot containing approximately 5,500 square feet ("Lot A") subject to a ground sub-sublease (the "Ground Sub-sublease").
The Ground Lease matures on the earlier of (i) April 30, 2077, (ii) the date of termination of the Ground Sub-sublease term or (iii) a date if sooner terminated, as defined. The Ground Lease provides for monthly ground rent of approximately $925,000 through April 30, 2012, $1,321,000 through April 30, 2013, and provides for annual increases of 2.5% beginning on May 1, 2013 through April 30, 2020.
On May 1, 2020, May 1, 2038 and every 10 years thereafter through May 1, 2068, (“Adjustment Years”) ground rent shall be adjusted to be the greater of (a) 1.03 times the base rent payable during the lease year immediately preceding the said Adjustment Year or (b) 7% of the fair market value of the land, as defined in the Ground Lease.

NOTE 12: FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The following disclosure of estimated fair values was determined by management using available market information. However, considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize on disposition of the financial instruments at June 30, 2012 and 2011. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair values.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair values of financial instruments:
The carrying amounts of prepaid expenses, tenant security deposits, and accounts payable and accrued expenses reported in the Company's consolidated balance sheet approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
The carrying amounts of notes payable and accrued interest payable approximate fair value because those financial instruments bear interest at variable rates that approximate current market rates for notes with similar maturities and credit quality.
The fair value of related party receivables and payables cannot readily be determined because there is no market for such instruments; therefore, these financial instruments are reported at cost.

NOTE 13: LITIGATION
The Company is party to certain legal proceedings arising out of the normal conduct of business.
