Dear Sirs,
RE: Information Art. 23º - Listing Rules
I am writing you as Attorney in Fact of Telecom Argentina S.A. (Telecom Argentina or the Company) to inform you of the following:
1) | As informed previously, the Acuerdo Preventivo Extrajudicial (the APE) signed by Telecom Argentina and its financial creditors was homologated by the Argentine Court. Moreover, on August 31, 2005 the New Notes were issued and the cash payments were made, in exchange for the outstanding debt, whereby such debt was canceled, and the terms of the APE were complied with, in accordance to Articles 55, 56 and 76 of the Argentine Bankruptcy Law. |

Sincerely, |
Maria Delia Carrera Sala |
