Re: Material Fact.– Approval of Tariff Charts.


Dear Sirs,

I am writing to you in my capacity as Head of Market Relations of Transportadora de Gas del Sur S.A. (“TGS” or the “Company”), in compliance with Section 11 of Chapter I, Title II and Section 2, Chapter I, Title XII of the Rules of the Argentine Securities and Exchange Commission (Comisión Nacional de Valores (“CNV”) (T.O. 2013), in order to report that on March 29, 2019 the National Gas Regulatory Body (“ENARGAS”) issued Resolution no. 192/2019 -published in the Official Gazette today-, whereby ENARGAS approves, effective April 1, 2019, a 26% increase in the current tariff charts for natural gas transportation public utilities carried out by TGS, which represents a 3% increase for end users.

The biannual tariff adjustment is being granted within the framework of ENARGAS Resolution no. I-4362/17 and TGS’ Integral Tariff Review process (“RTI”) in force until the year 2022, under which TGS has committed to the execution of an ambitious five-year investment plan for the amount of AR$ 6,786 million (stated in AR$ as of December 31, 2016) to be carried out in the period April 2017 – March 2022, thus applying as non-automatic adjustment mechanism the semi-annual variation of the Wholesale Price Index (“IPIM”) published by the National Statistics and Censuses Institute (“INDEC”).

Notwithstanding the above-mentioned, this time ENARGAS has analyzed the evolution of the IPIM adjustment index for the period August 2018 – February 2019 in order to establish the biannual adjustments applicable to TGS’ tariffs.

Yours sincerely,


Hernán Diego Flores Gómez

Head of Market Relations
