4) On the following items of the Agenda, it is required as follows:

(Item 3) “Partial write-off of the voluntary reserve for future result distributions in the amount of AR$ 12,000,000,000 and consideration of the supplementary dividend for the same amount, so as to increase the amount of the cash dividend approved by the General Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting held on May 15, 2020 in the amount of AR$ 2,500,000,000, all of it subject to the prior Argentine Central Bank authorization. Delegation to the Board of the powers for the implementation thereof and for determination of a date to make it available for the shareholders, once it has been approved by the Argentine Central Bank”;

2

It is hereby requested to justify the proposal to be submitted for consideration of this item of the Agenda.

The Board of Director resolved, at his Meeting held on October 8 of this year, to propose to the Meeting the distribution of a supplementary cash dividend in the amount of AR$ 12,000,000,000, corresponding to the partial write-off of the voluntary reserve for future distributions of results, so as to increase the amount of the cash dividend approved by the General Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting held on May 15, 2020 in the amount of AR$ 2,500,000,000, all of it subject to the prior Argentine Central Bank (“BCRA”) authorization.

In said Meeting, it was resolved to write-off partially the AR$ 2,500,000,000 voluntary reserve, to apply it to the payment of a cash dividend in said amount, on a pro rata basis to the nominal holding of each shareholder, equivalent to AR$ 4.08056912 per share, delegating to the Board of Directors the powers to fix the date of implementation of the write-off and the date of payment for such dividend.

Pursuant to the Argentine Central Bank (the “BCRA”) Communication “A” 6886, the effective payment of the dividend is subject to the prior BCRA authorization. Likewise, by Communication “A” 6939 and 7035, the BCRA extended until December 31 of this year, the suspension of the distribution of results by the financial entities.

The Board of Directors proposal which shall be submitted for consideration of the General Extraordinary Shareholders Meeting is due to the financial capacity of the Company.

Alternatively, it is hereby requested to provide a detail of the “Voluntary Reserve for Future Result Distributions” evolution specifying its composition at present, date in which it was created and last movements.

The evolution of the Voluntary Reserve for Future Result Distributions is detailed below in the following table:

	Movement		Balance
Balance as of December 31, 2017				10,489,416
Distribution in accordance with the Meeting held on April 10, 2018		2,132,612
Balance as of December 31, 2018				12,622,028
Distribution in accordance with the Meeting held on April 24, 2019		5,283,950
Balance as of December 31, 2019				17,905,978

The movements of the voluntary reserve are expressed at historic values in the published financial statements, submitted to the different regulatory authorities.

3

Likewise, it is hereby requested to inform if the Company has provided other restriction on the distribution of dividends which is operative at the moment of holding this Shareholders Meeting.

BCRA Communication “A” 6939 dated March 19, 2020 provided for the suspension of the result distributions by financial entities until June 30, 2020 and the BCRA Communication “A” 7035 dated June 4, 2020 extended said suspension until December 31 of this year.

Furthermore, as request we hereby inform that there exist a restriction on the distribution of profits related to the special regulatory reserve by application, for the first time, of the IFRS which appears in Note 48 to the published annual financial statement “Restriction on the payment of dividends” and it is established in the BCRA Communication “A” 6327.

Considering that the CNV Resolution Nbr. 777/18 sets forth that the distribution of profits shall be dealt with in the currency applicable on the date of holding of the Shareholders Meeting by the use of the price index corresponding to the month preceding the meeting, it is hereby requested to confirm if the proposal informed in this answer shall be restated. In this case, please indicate the calculation rate and updated amounts.

Finally it is requested to provide all other relevant information for the Shareholders on this issue.

Under the applicable regulatory framework, the Company began to adjust for inflation as from this current fiscal year initiated on January 1, 2020; therefore the applications of said adjustment does not correspond since the results are related to the previous fiscal year, 2019.

Sincerely yours.
