RE.: Informs notification of the resolution in case entitled: “La Capital Cable S.A. and/other a/National Commerce Secretary according to ordinary proceeding (Expte 21095190/2011).
Dear Sirs,
I am writing to you in my capacity as Attorney in Fact of Telecom Argentina S.A. (“Telecom Argentina” or the “Company”), in order to inform that the subsidiary of the Company, La Capital Cable S.A., has been notified of the decision issued by the Federal Court of Mar del Plata No. 2 in the case indicated in the reference, by virtue of which, the demand filed by La Capital Cable S.A. was granted and, to which the Asociación Argentina de Televisión por Cable (“ATVC”) subscribed, and to which Cablevisión S.A. (today and by merger, Telecom Argentina) is an associate member.
The referred resolution declared sections 2.a and 2.c of the Law No. 20,680 in its original wording unconstitutional (prior to the reform by the Law 26,991) as well as the Resolution of the Secretaría de Comercio Interior No. 50/2010 and as a result the following Resolutions were also declared unconstitutional: No. 36/2011, 65/2011, 92/2011, 123/2011, 141/2011, 10/2011, 25/2012, 97/2012, 161/2012, 29/2013, 61/2013, 104/2013, 1/2014, 43/2014 and 93/2014.
The demand filed by La Capital Cable S.A., and to which the ATVC adhered, was due to Resolution No. 50/2010 enacted by the Secretaría de Comercio del Interior which established guidelines for the commercialization operations of pay television services. Subsequently, and within the framework of Resolution No. 50/2010, the Secretaría de Comercio del Interior issued various resolutions that were a result of such resolution, among them Resolution No. 36/2011, that set the cable service price provided by Cablevisión S.A., as it was informed by such firm (today, the Company) through the relevant matter dated March 11, 2011.
The decision on the Resolution is not yet final. The Company with the assistance of its legal counsels believes that it has solid arguments for its defense.
Sincerely,
|
|
Telecom Argentina S.A. |
