Re: Relevant Information
Dear Sirs,
Please be hereby advised that yesterday MetroGAS S.A. (MetroGAS) filed with the National Commercial Court of First Instance No. 26 Clerk's Office No. 51, where the company's reorganization proceedings are heard, a petition for the extension of the exclusivity period for ninety working days, and consequently, a petition to suspend the informative hearing initially scheduled for March 2, 2012, and establish a new hearing to that effect, five days before the expiration of the new extended exclusivity period. Furthermore, MetroGAS also requested the suspension of the bondholders' meeting scheduled by the Court for February 24, 2012 at 11:00 a.m.
Today, the Court admitted the abovementioned petition, and therefore, the informative hearing was rescheduled for July 11 at 10:30 a.m., and the bondholders' meeting was postponed until June 18 at 11:00 a.m.
Sincerely yours,
Magdalena Gonzalez Garaño
