Re: Acquisition of 50% of the stock of Petrofaro S.A. (previously ArPetrol Argentina 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 on January 12, 2017, YPF S.A. ("YPF") entered into an agreement with ENAP Sipetrol Argentina S.A. ("ENAP") for the acquisition of the 50% of the capital stock of Petrofaro S.A. (previously called ArPetrol Argentina S.A.). Petrofaro S.A. owns an exploitation concession in the Faro Vírgenes area, located in the Province of Santa Cruz, which has a gas treatment plant.
The transaction amount is US$5,357,864, including working capital, which may be reduced as part of the price adjustment procedure as provided in the share purchase agreement.
This acquisition, which includes the aforementioned gas treatment plant as the main asset, is part of the Magallanes Area Incremental Proyect ("PIAM", for its name in Spanish) developed by YPF and ENAP, which will allow an increase of the natural gas production from 2.4 million of m3/day to approximately 4 million of m3/day, and the oil production from 800 m3/day to approximately 1000 m3/day, all in the Magallanes Area.
Yours faithfully,
Diego Celáa
Market Relations Officer
YPF S.A.
