Re.: Transportadora de Gas del Sur (“TGS”)



Dear Sirs,


The purpose hereof is to inform -in accordance with the requirements of the regulations under the United States Securities and Exchange Act- that in the meeting held on December 16, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company resolved:

(i) To discontinue the registration of the tariff increase revenue established in the Interim Agreement entered into on October 8th, 2008, between this Company and the Renegotiation Unit (UNIREN), and ratified by Executive Power Decree N° 1.918/09.

(ii) to revert the credit provision of the tariff increase revenue already accrued, which represents a negative impact on the Company’s net income of approximately 70 million of Argentine pesos (information not audited and which calculation was made according to the information of the financial statements as of September 30, 2010).

The decision adopted was based on:  (a) the fact that more than 1 year has elapsed since the enactment of the Decree that ratifies the 20% tariff adjustment on the transportation tariff in force as of 08.31.08 established in the Interim Agreement, which had not been implemented and (b) the appeals lodged by the National Gas Regulatory Body (the “ENARGAS”) and the Ministry of Federal Planning, Public Investment and Services against the judgment issued by the Judge of Original Jurisdiction in Federal Administrative Law in charge of Court N° 12, who upheld the amparo filed by TGS ordering the ENARGAS to establish the tariff chart and the methodology for the application of the retroactive increase arising from said Interim Agreement.

Sincerely,





Adrián Hubert

Attorney in Fact
