Item 1

Buenos Aires, February 12, 2008

To the

Buenos Aires Stock Exchange

Dear Sirs,

Re.: Information Monitor Appointment

In my capacity as Chairman of the Board of Directors of Telecom Argentina S.A. (“the Company”), I hereby inform you that yesterday we received notice of a precautionary measure issued by the National Court of Original Jurisdiction in Commercial Matters No. 16, Secretary No. 32, which consists in the appointment of an Observer for the term of two months in the company group integrated by Sofora Telecomunicaciones S.A., Nortel Inversora S.A., Telecom Argentina S.A., Telecom Personal S.A. and their subsidiaries.

It is the duty of this Information Monitor, who has observer’s rights, to duly inform the Court so that it can determine if, as a result of Telefónica S.A. entering into the Telco S.p.A. consortium, objective risks of conflicts of interest could arise in decision making by Telecom Argentina S.A. and their subsidiaries.

The precautionary measure was requested by Mr. Gerardo Werthein and others.

The Company’s legal advisers are reviewing the effects and scope of the measure and we will timely provide further information on this issue, if necessary.

Sincerely,
