The main terms and conditions of the Offer are the following: Issuer of the Promissory Note: Grupo Clarín S.A.. Amount Issued: USD 23,000,000. Maturity Date: 15 June 2021. Interest: the principal amount of the Promissory Note will accrue interest daily at an annual rate of 6.5%, calculated from the date of issuance until the maturity date; interest shall be capitalized every six months. Interest Payment Date: Interest shall be paid semi annually as from 15 June 2017. Late Payment Interest: In the event of a failure to pay the principal amount of the Promissory Note (together with the corresponding interest), the principal amount shall accrue a late payment interest daily at a rate of 2% per annum from the maturity date to the effective payment date. Payment Currency: all payments under the Promissory Note shall be in United States dollars. Settlement and payment of amounts due under the Promissory Note: Grupo Clarín S.A. may pay and settle the amounts under the Promissory Note on the maturity date or, at its option, at any time prior to maturity, subject to all other terms and conditions of the Promissory Note. Payments shall be made by wire transfer to the bank account indicated for such purpose, or subject to prior notice 10 days before the maturity date or to the date of payment, in kind, by delivering USD 500,000,000 6.5% issued by Cablevisión S.A., as issuer, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee, Registration Agent, Payment and Transfer Agent.
