Re: Merger of YPF S.A. with YPF Inversora Energética S.A. and Gas Argentino S.A.
|
Dear Sirs:
The purpose of this letter is to comply with the requirements of Article 23 of Chapter VII of the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange Regulations.
In that connection, please be advised that the Board of Directors of YPF S.A., at its meeting on March 3, 2016, approved the merger of YPF S.A. ("YPF") with YPF Inversora Energética S.A. ("YPFIESA") and Gas Argentino S.A. ("GASA"), whereby YPFIESA and GASA will be dissolved without liquidation. It also approved the acts necessary to implement this corporate reorganization, with effect from January 1, 2016.
On the same date, YPF, as the acquiring company, and YPFIESA and GASA, as the merged companies, signed a preliminary merger agreement, by which YPF agreed to acquire YPFIESA and GASA, with retroactive effect from January 1, 2016. This was done on the basis of the annual financial statements of each of the companies as of December 31, 2015, to be used as special merger balance sheets, and the special merger consolidated balance sheet as of the same date. Because YPF directly owns 100% of the shares of YPFIESA and indirectly owns 100% of the shares of GASA, YPF's capital will not be increased, new shares of the company will not be issued and there will be no exchanges as a result of the merger.
The aforementioned merger must be submitted for consideration and approval to the respective Extraordinary General Shareholders' Meetings of the respective companies and is subject to compliance with the relevant legal procedures and the obtaining of regulatory approvals.
Yours faithfully,
Diego Celaá
Market Relations Officer
YPF S.A.
