FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Buenos Aires, June 12, 2012
Mr. Chairman of the
Comisión Nacional de Valores
Lic. Alejandro Vanoli
RE.: Art.23 of the Listing Rules
Dear Sir,
I am writing to you as Responsible for Market Relations of Telecom Argentina S.A. (“Telecom Argentina” or the “Company”) to inform you that today the telecommunications services rendered by Telecom Argentina and its subsidiary Telecom Personal in the northern part of the country were affected for two and a half hours due to a cut in the fibre optic network in the proximities of the city of Escobar.
It was identified that third parties not related to Telecom Argentina executing roadwork caused the cut in the fibre optic network at 7 kilometres of the City of Escobar and this affected the service.
The Company, through a contingency plan, was able to restore the affected services at approximately 7:00 PM.
Telecom Argentina is investigating and evaluating the informed incident.
Yours sincerely,
|
Telecom Argentina S.A.
|
|
/s/ Pedro Insussarry
