Proposal for earning distribution:

The Board of Directors has decided:

a) Distribution of cash dividends: AR $0.25 per outstanding share, which calculated over the outstanding shares as of 18 February 20091, shows a total amount of AR $149,869,743.25.

Such amount represents 21.91% of the Bank’s current capital stock (AR $683,978,973).

The payment of the cash dividend is subject to the authorization from the Central Bank of the Republic of Argentina.

The above mentioned distribution is not subject to the 35% withholding provided for in the section added after section 69 of the Argentine Income Tax Law because the distributed dividends do not exceed the income determined in accordance with the general provisions of such law.

1 To such date, the total outstanding shares being 683,978,973 and having the Bank repurchased 84,500,000 shares, the amount of outstanding shares is 599,478,973.

b) Capitalization of earnings, monetary adjustments of capital and other items: Not proposed.

In the chart below we provide information on the number of Class A and Class B shares owned by the controlling group:
