Dear Sirs:

I hereby address you on behalf of Empresa Distribuidora y Comercializadora Norte S.A.

(indistinctly, “Edenor” or the “Company”) in accordance with the provisions of CNV Rules, in order to inform that yesterday, S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) upgraded the long-term local and foreign currency rating of Edenor along with several other Argentine corporate and infrastructure entities from “CCC-” to “CCC”, with a stable outlook.

S&P also highlighted that revised up Edenor's stand-alone credit profile to “CCC” from

“CCC-”.

The rating change of the aforementioned companies is related to the upgrade made by S&P last March 15th of Argentina's long-term foreign currency rating from “CCC-” to “CCC”, as well as the modification of the transfer and convertibility rating (T&C) of the country from “CCC-” to “CCC”.

Yours faithfully,
