Statement by Cablevisión S.A. ("Cablevisión")

THE ARGENTINE GOVERNMENT AGAIN DISREGARDS JUDICIAL DECISIONS, THIS TIME TO CONTINUE ITS ATTACK ON CABLEVISION

Cablevisión will immediately resort to the justice system to defend itself from Resolution No. 113 dated March 3, issued by the Minister of Economy, Mr. Amado Boudou. In addition to being manifestly arbitrary, such resolution expressly disregards two judicial decisions that prevented its issuance

Such resolution, aimed at rescinding the National Antitrust Commission's unanimous authorisation granted in 2007, is null and void on account of the arbitrary and illegitimate framework under which it was issued. It also contradicts two judicial decisions that ordered [that Ministry] to follow due process of law, to respect Cablevisión's right to self-defense and not to incur in prejudgment, all of which orders were disobeyed by the Ministry.

Throughout these two years, no government official ever warned the company about any irregularity or requested any reports. On the contrary, the company of its own initiative provided certifiable evidence, backed by external audits, of its over-compliance with its voluntary undertakings relating to investments, technological renovation, network development, the supply of more and improved television and internet services, broadening the scope of its content and implementing socially oriented services.

This resolution has been issued in violation of the laws and procedures governing the public administration and must be viewed and interpreted as an additional piece in the systematic harassment campaign deployed by certain sectors of Government to attempt to hamper the operation of the company.

It is remarkable that the this resolution was issued after the rendering-a few days earlier-of a decision of Chamber A of the Court of Appeals on Criminal Economic Matters, whereby the Secretary of Domestic Trade, Guillermo Moreno, was excluded from the proceedings for prejudgment, and that Court demanded respect for due process of law, which was grossly disregarded by the new resolution.

This new resolution does nothing but cast doubts about the predictability and legal certainty of investments that are so necessary for our country, and about the credibility of the State's own control agencies, which bend their own decisions.

Cablevisión will continue to defend itself against these destructive measures that are to the detriment of a growing industry, and will maintain its commitment to invest, to remain a source of employment and to render the best television and broadband services to its subscribers.
