Profit distribution proposal:

The Board of Directors has approved the following proposal regarding:

a)  
Distribution of cash dividends: AR $0.35 per issued and outstanding share, which shows a total of AR $208,069,808.80.

Such amount represents 35% of the Bank’s current capital stock (AR $594,485,168).

Distribution of the above stated cash divided 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 under the Section incorporated immediately after Sect. 69 of the Income Tax Law, since
 
 

 
the distributed dividends do not exceed the income determined as a result of applying the general provisions of such law.

b)  
Profit capitalizations, capital currency adjustments and other matters: no proposal is submitted.
