Dr. Adrián Cosentino

 

Re.: Report of decision of the Federal Administrative Contentious Court No II, in the case “ADUC v. Telecom Argentina S.A. re. Legal Proceeding (proceso de conocimiento)” (Docket 6570/2017)

 

Dear Sirs,

 

I am writing to you in my capacity as Attorney in fact of Telecom Argentina S.A. (“Telecom Argentina” or the “Company”), as an update to the Relevant Matter submitted on March 12, 2019 through the Autopista de la Información Financiera (ID No.2447838), in which we reported the notification of a complaint filed by the Asociación por la Defensa de Usuarios y Consumidores, (“ADUC”) in the aforementioned case.

 

The Company, with the assistance of its legal counsel, submitted an answer to the complaint, entered a plea of lack of the plaintiff’s standing, provided the grounds for its defense, and requested the dismissal of the complaint filed by ADUC.

 

In this respect, we report that through a decision dated October 9, 2020, the Federal Administrative Contentious Court No. II resolved as follows: to a) admit the proposed appeal filed by Telecom Argentina as the respondent, and as a consequence, revoke the decision rendered by the first instance judge; b) admit the plea of lack of ADUC’s standing entered by Telecom Argentina; and c) award ADUC the legal fees for both instances.

 

The decision is not final. The Company, with the assistance of its legal counsel, considers it has solid arguments for its defense.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

 

Telecom Argentina S.A.

 

 

 

/s/ Andrea V. Cerdán

 

Attorney in Fact
