1 | Translation of letter to the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange dated August 12, 2013. |
2
Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, August 12, 2013
To the
Bolsa de Comercio de Buenos Aires
(Buenos Aires Stock Exchange)
The purpose of this letter is to comply with the requirements of Article 23, Section 3 of the Regulations of the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange.
The Board of Directors, at a meeting held on August 9, 2013, decided to pay a dividend in cash of 0.83 Argentine pesos per share with no distinction among the classes of the Companys stock. Such dividend shall be made available to all shareholders on August 28, 2013, or on any subsequent date due to the application of the rules governing the jurisdiction where the Companys shares are listed. The exchange rate to be used for payment of the ADRs shall be that of the United States dollar in the free exchange market selling rate forty-eight hours before the date the dividends shall be made available in the Republic of Argentina.
Additionally, we inform that from the amount to be paid as a dividend, there will be a deduction for if applicable the amount paid by the Company for the Personal Asset Tax (according to the unnumbered article after article 25 of law 23,966 and its amendments), corresponding to the fiscal year 2012.
In the case of ADRs, for operational reasons, the tax will be withheld for all holders, and a system on our website (www.ypf.com) will be made available on the day following the payment date, in order to request the refund, in cases where such tax does not apply.
Sincerely yours,
Gabriel E. Abalos
Market relations officer
