While any such Default continues, the Trustee may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee. If the Company or an Affiliate of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the money held by it as Paying Agent and hold it as a separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by such Paying Agent. Upon complying with this Section 2.4, the Paying Agent (if other than the Company) shall have no further liability for the money delivered to the Trustee. Upon any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law with respect to the Company, any Affiliate of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor, if the Company, a Subsidiary Guarantor or such Affiliate is then acting as Paying Agent, the Trustee shall replace the Company, such Subsidiary Guarantor or such Affiliate as Paying Agent.

The receipt by the Paying Agent or the Trustee from the Company of each payment of principal, interest and/or other amounts due in respect of the Notes in the manner specified herein and on the date on which such amount of principal, interest and/or other amounts are then due, shall satisfy the obligations of the Company herein and under the Notes to make such payment to the Holders on the due date thereof; provided, however, that the liability of any Paying Agent hereunder shall not exceed any amounts paid to it by the Company, or held by it, on behalf of the Holders under this Indenture. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence or any other provision of this Indenture to the contrary, the Company (without prejudice to its rights against the Trustee or any Paying Agent)

shall indemnify the Holders in the event that there is subsequent failure by the Trustee or any Paying Agent to pay any amount due in respect of the Notes in accordance with the Notes and this Indenture as shall result in the receipt by the Holders of such amounts as would have been received by them had no such failure occurred. Upon the Company’s repayment in full of the Notes, and so long as the Paying Agent no longer holds any money payable to the Holders or the Trustee, as the case may be, in connection with this Indenture or the Notes, as applicable, the Paying Agent shall be relieved of any of its obligations under this Indenture and the Notes and any actions other than the exercise of rights, required to be taken by the Paying Agent, shall be taken by the Company or its Subsidiaries.

Section 2.5 CUSIP and ISIN Numbers. In issuing the Notes, the Company may use CUSIP and ISIN numbers (if then generally in use) and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP and ISIN numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any initial CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers and any change in the CUSIP or ISIN numbers.

(d) Use and Removal of Private Placement Legends. Upon the registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of Notes (or beneficial interests in a Global Note) not bearing (or not required to bear upon such registration of transfer, exchange or replacement) a Private Placement Legend, the Note Custodian and Registrar shall exchange such Notes (or beneficial interests) for beneficial interests in a Global Note (or Certificated Notes if they have been issued pursuant to Section 2.7(c)) that does not bear a Private Placement Legend.

The Private Placement Legend on any Note shall be removed at the request of the Holder on or after the Resale Restriction Termination Date therefor. The Holder of a Global Note may exchange an interest therein for an equivalent interest in a Global Note not bearing a Private Placement Legend (other than a Regulation S Global Note) upon transfer of such interest pursuant to any of clauses (i) through (iv) of this Section 2.9(d).

(e) Consolidation of Global Notes. Nothing in this Indenture shall provide for the consolidation of any Notes with any other Notes unless they constitute, as determined pursuant to an Opinion of Counsel, the same classes of securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(ii) No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company, the Registrar, or the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax, assessment, or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than any such transfer taxes, assessments or similar governmental charges payable upon exchange or transfer pursuant to Section 3.7 or Section 3.10).

(iii) The Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange of any Note for a period beginning: (1) 15 days before the mailing of a notice of an offer to repurchase or redeem Notes and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing; or (2) 15 days before an Interest Payment Date and ending on such Interest Payment Date.

(iv) Prior to the due presentation for registration of transfer of any Note, the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar may deem and treat the person in whose name a Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note is overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(v) All Notes issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange pursuant to the terms of this Indenture shall evidence the same debt and shall be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as the Notes surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

All notices and communications to be given to the Holders and all payments to be made to Holders in respect of the Notes shall be given or made only to or upon the order of the registered Holders (which shall be DTC or its nominee in the case of a Global Note). The rights of beneficial owners in any Global Note shall be exercised only through DTC subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC. The Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in conclusively relying upon information furnished by DTC with respect to its members, participants and any beneficial owners.

(ii) The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer or exchange imposed under this Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer or exchange of any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among DTC participants, members or beneficial owners in any Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when expressly required by, the express terms of this Indenture, to examine the same to determine if it substantially complies on its face as to form with the express requirements hereof, and to notify the party delivering the same if the certificate does not so comply.

Section 2.10 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes.

(a) If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken and if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York are met, the Company shall execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate a replacement Note if the Holder satisfies any other reasonable requirements of the Trustee. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish an affidavit of loss and indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of the Company and the Trustee to protect the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and any Co-Registrar from any loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced, and, in the absence of notice to the Company or a Trust Officer of the Trustee that such Note has been acquired by a protected purchaser (as defined in Section 8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York), the Company shall execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange for any such mutilated Note or in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a new Note of like tenor and principal amount, bearing a number not contemporaneously Outstanding.

(b) Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 2.10, the Company, the Trustee and the Registrar may require from such Holder the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Company’s counsel, the Trustee and its counsel) in connection therewith.

(c) In case any mutilated, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the Company may, in its discretion, pay such Notes instead of issuing a new Note in replacement thereof.

(d) Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 2.10 in exchange for any mutilated Note, or in lieu of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note, shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company and any other obligor upon the Notes, and shall be entitled to all benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

(e) The provisions of this Section 2.10 shall be exclusive and shall be in lieu of, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

Section 2.11 Temporary Notes. Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes. Without unreasonable delay, the Company shall prepare and execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate definitive Notes. After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at any office or agency maintained by the Company for that purpose and such exchange shall be without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Company shall execute and upon Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor one or more definitive Notes representing an equal principal amount of Notes. Until so exchanged, the Holder of temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as a Holder of definitive Notes.

Section 2.12 Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver Notes to the Trustee for cancellation. The Registrar and the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to them for registration of transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee and no one else shall cancel and dispose of cancelled Notes in accordance with its customary procedures or return to the Company all Notes surrendered for registration of transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation. Subject to Section 2.10, the Company may not issue new Notes to replace Notes it has paid or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation for any reason other than in connection with a transfer or exchange upon Company Order.

Section 2.13 Defaulted Interest. When any installment of interest becomes Defaulted Interest, such installment shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders in whose names the Notes were registered on the Record Date applicable to such installment of interest. Defaulted Interest (including any interest on such Defaulted Interest) may be paid by the Company, at its election, as provided in Section 2.13(a) or Section 2.13(b).

(a) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest (including any interest on such Defaulted Interest) to the Holders in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest (a “Special Record Date”), which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the Holders entitled to such Defaulted Interest as provided in this Section 2.13(a). Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be not more than 15 calendar days and not less than ten calendar days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than ten calendar days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be sent, first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder at such Holder’s address as it appears in the registration books of the Registrar, not less than ten calendar days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Holders in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to Section 2.13(b).

(b) Alternatively, the Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest (including any interest on such Defaulted Interest) in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this Section 2.13(b) such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

Section 2.14 Additional Notes. The Company may, from time to time, subject to compliance with any other applicable provisions of this Indenture, without the consent of the Holders, create and issue pursuant to this Indenture Additional Notes having terms and conditions set forth in Exhibit A identical to those of the Initial Notes, except that Additional Notes:

(a) may have a different issue price, issue date and, if applicable, date from which the interest shall accrue from the Initial Notes;

(b) may have a different amount of interest payable on the first Interest Payment Date after issuance than is payable on the Initial Notes; and

(c) may have terms specified in the Additional Note Board Resolution or Additional Note Supplemental Indenture for such Additional Notes making appropriate adjustments to this Article II and Exhibit A (and related definitions) applicable to such Additional Notes in order to conform to and ensure compliance with the Securities Act (or other applicable securities laws).

Prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day prior to each Interest Payment Date, the Maturity Date or any other date on which principal on the Notes is due and payable in accordance with the terms thereof, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent in immediately available funds U.S. Dollars sufficient to make cash payments due on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date or such other payment date, as the case may be.

Principal and interest shall be considered paid on the date due if on such date the Trustee or the Paying Agent (other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds in accordance with this Indenture U.S. Dollars designated for and sufficient to pay all principal and interest then due and the Trustee or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, is not prohibited from paying such money to the Holders on that date pursuant to the terms of this Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may elect to make the payments of interest by check mailed to the registered Holders at their registered addresses.

(b) If a Holder of Notes in an aggregate principal amount of at least U.S.$1,000,000 has given wire transfer instructions to the Company, the Company shall make all principal and interest payments on those Notes in accordance with such instructions.

(b) The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies (in or outside of The City of New York) where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind any such designation; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in The City of New York, The City of Buenos Aires, (Argentina) or, so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for trading on the Euro MTF Market, in Luxembourg, for such purposes. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

Section 3.3 Corporate Existence. Subject to Article IV, the Company shall do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence.

respect to any taxes or duties described herein that would become payable by the Trustee or the Holders in the event the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary fails to pay such taxes or duties, the Company shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment or charge whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which appropriate reserves, if necessary (in the good faith judgment of management of the Company), are being maintained in accordance with Argentine GAAP or where the failure to effect such payment shall not have a material adverse effect upon the financial condition of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or on the performance of the Company’s obligations hereunder.

Section 3.5 Further Instruments and Acts. The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or as may be required by applicable law to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

Section 3.6 Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor covenants (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or any usury law or other law that would prohibit or forgive the Company or such Subsidiary Guarantor from paying all or any portion of the principal of or interest on the Notes as contemplated herein, wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, or which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture. The Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby expressly waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but shall suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

(a) Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, the Company shall provide a Change of Control Notice and, within 45 days from the Change of Control, make an offer to purchase Notes (the “Change of Control Offer”), pursuant to which the Company shall be required, if requested by any Holder, to purchase all or a portion (equal to US$2,000 or integral multiples of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes on the date set forth in the Change of Control Notice, which date shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus any accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Amounts, if any, thereon to the purchase date (subject to the right of the holders of record on the relevant Record Date to receive interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the relevant interest payment date) (the “Change of Control Payment”). No such purchase in part shall reduce the outstanding principal amount at maturity of the Notes held by any Holder to below US$2,000.

(i) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(e) The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in compliance with the conditions and requirements of this Indenture that are applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

(f) The provisions of this Section 3.7 shall be applicable whether or not any other provisions of this Indenture are applicable.

(ii) Indebtedness:

(1) represented by the Notes (excluding Additional Notes) and any guarantees of the Notes (excluding any Additional Notes);

(v) Indebtedness of another Person Incurred and outstanding on or prior to the date on which such Person consolidates with or merges with or into the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Indebtedness Incurred as consideration in, or to provide all or any portion of the funds or credit support utilized to consummate, the transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such Person consolidates with or merges with or into the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary); provided, however, that on the date that such transaction is consummated, the Company (1) would have been able to Incur US$1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to clause (a) above after giving pro forma effect to the Incurrence of such Indebtedness pursuant to this subclause (v) or the Company’s Total Liabilities to Net Worth Ratio and Indebtedness to Net Worth Ratio would be less than the Company’s Total Liabilities to Net Worth Ratio and Indebtedness to Net Worth Ratio, respectively, immediately prior to giving effect thereto; and (2) Refinancing Indebtedness Incurred by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary or any successor thereof, which successor is in compliance with the covenant described under Section 4.1 below in respect of Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to this clause (v);

(vi) Indebtedness arising from agreements providing for indemnification, adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case Incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition of a business, assets or Capital Stock of a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of a disposition, the maximum aggregate liability in respect of such Indebtedness will at no time exceed the gross proceeds actually received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary in connection with such disposition;

Unsecured Indebtedness shall not be deemed subordinated to secured Indebtedness solely by virtue of its being unsecured.

(d) For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant:

(i) in the event that an item of Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Indebtedness described above, including clause (a) above, the Company, in its sole discretion, may classify, and from time to time may reclassify, such item of Indebtedness in one of the above clauses; and

(ii) the Company shall be entitled to divide and classify, and from time to time may reclassify, an item of Indebtedness in more than one of the types of Indebtedness described above, including clause (a) above.

Accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the accretion or amortization of accreted value or original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness and the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Disqualified Stock, as the case may be, will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this covenant.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this covenant, neither the Company nor any Restricted Subsidiary shall, with respect to any outstanding Indebtedness Incurred (the amount of which shall be determined at the time originally Incurred), be deemed to be in violation of this covenant solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies. In addition, the Company shall not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to Incur any Indebtedness or issue any shares of Disqualified Stock, other than Non-Recourse Debt. If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this covenant, the Company shall be in Default of this covenant).

For purposes of determining compliance with any U.S. dollar denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness (or the calculation of any applicable ratios), the U.S. dollar equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate determined as the average daily observed currency exchange rates reported by Banco de la Nación Argentina for the trailing 30 calendar day period, including the date of Incurrence, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the case of revolving credit Indebtedness, in each case by reference to the original date of Incurrence (or commitment). The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being Refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rates as calculated in the first sentence of this paragraph.

(iii) any purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value of Subordinated Obligations of the Company made by exchange for, or out of the proceeds of the substantially concurrent sale of, Subordinated Obligations of the Company that is permitted to be Incurred pursuant to the covenant described under Section 3.8 below; provided, however, that such purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value will be excluded from the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments pursuant to clause (a)(iv)(3) above;

(iv) dividends paid in accordance with applicable law after the date of declaration thereof if at such date of declaration such dividend would have complied with this covenant; provided, however, that the payment or declaration, but not both the payment and the declaration, of such dividend will be included in the calculation of the amount of Restricted Payments pursuant to clause (a)(iv)(3) above;

(v) any redemption or retirement of any Capital Stock of the Company held by Xxxxxx X.X. and Dusner S.A. where there is no transfer of assets or value to any Person by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with any consolidation of the ownership of the Company by Tarjetas Regionales S.A.;

The fair market value of any cash Restricted Payment shall be its face amount. The fair market value of any non-cash Restricted Payment shall be determined by the management of the Company acting in good faith; provided that if such non-cash Restricted Payment or related series of non-cash Restricted Payments involves aggregate consideration in excess of US$5.0 million, as initially determined by the management of the Company in good faith, the Board of Directors of the Company, acting in good faith, shall make a final determination of such fair market value; provided further, that if such Restricted Payment or related series of Restricted Payments involves aggregate consideration in excess of US$25.0 million, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company pursuant to the foregoing, such final determination of the Board of Directors of the Company shall be based upon an opinion or appraisal issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of international standing.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this covenant, the maximum amount of any Restricted Payment or other Investment by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary will be determined at the time originally made and shall not be deemed to be in violation of this covenant solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rates or currency values from time to time.

Section 3.10 Limitation on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions.

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, enter into any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction unless the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled:

(a) pursuant to the provisions of the covenant described under Section 3.8 above to Incur Indebtedness in a principal amount equal to or exceeding the Attributable Debt of such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction; and

(b) pursuant to the provisions of the covenant described under Section 3.13 below to Incur a Lien to secure such Indebtedness.

Section 3.11 Limitation on Sales of Assets.The Company shall not, and shall not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, make any Asset Disposition unless:

(a) the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration (including by way of relief from, or by any other Person assuming sole responsibility for, any liabilities, contingent or otherwise) at the time of such Asset Disposition at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares and/or assets subject to such Asset Disposition; and

(b) at least 75% of the consideration thereof received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents; provided that the following will be deemed to be cash for purposes of this clause (b):

(i) the amount of any liabilities (as shown on the Company’s, or such Restricted Subsidiary’s, most recent balance sheet or in the notes thereto) of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets; and

(ii) the amount of any securities received by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that is converted by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash (to the extent of the cash received) within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Disposition; and

(iii) the Fair Market Value of any Capital Stock of a Person engaged in a Related Business that will become, upon purchase, a Restricted Subsidiary or assets (other than current assets as determined in accordance with Argentine GAAP or Capital Stock) to be used by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in a Related Business;

provided, that amounts received pursuant to clauses (i) and (iii) shall not be deemed to constitute Net Cash Proceeds for purposes of making an Asset Sale Offer; and the amounts received pursuant to clause (ii) shall be deemed to constitute Net Cash Proceeds only to the extent of the Net Cash Proceeds actually received by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary upon the conversion of such securities by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary.

The Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, may apply the Net Cash Proceeds of any such Asset Disposition within 365 days thereof to:

(1) repay any Senior Indebtedness of the Company (including, through optional or mandatory prepayments, redemptions, buy backs and market purchases, so long as such repaid Indebtedness is immediately extinguished); provided that in connection with any such repayment of Senior Indebtedness the Company has made an offer to purchase Notes on the same terms as those offered in such repayment to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or on terms that are more favorable to the Holders of the Notes than those offered in such repayment to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness and on a pro rata basis based on the relative outstanding principal amount of the Notes and such other Senior Indebtedness, or

(2) make capital expenditures in a Related Business or Permitted Investments in a Related Business, or

(3) reinvest in or purchase Additional Assets (including by means of an investment in or purchase of Additional Assets by any Restricted Subsidiary with cash in an amount equal to the amount of Net Available Cash or Capital Stock to be used by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary in a Related Business), or

(4) any combination of (1), (2) or (3) above;

provided, that in the case of clauses (2) and (3) above, a binding commitment will be treated as a permitted application of the Net Cash Proceeds from the date of such commitment so long as the Company or such other Subsidiary enters into such commitment with the good faith expectation that such Net Cash Proceeds will be applied to satisfy such commitment within 180 days of such commitment (an “Acceptable Commitment”) and, in the event any Acceptable Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before the Net Cash Proceeds are applied in connection therewith, the Company or such Subsidiary enters into another Acceptable Commitment (a “Second Commitment”) within 180 days of such cancellation or termination; provided, further, that if any Second Commitment is later cancelled or terminated for any reason before such Net Cash Proceeds are applied, then such Net Cash Proceeds shall be treated as set forth in the immediately succeeding paragraph.

To the extent that all or a portion of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Disposition are not applied within the 365 days of the Asset Disposition as described in clauses (1) through (4) of the immediately preceding paragraph (or such longer period as permitted hereunder), the Company shall make an offer to purchase notes (the “Asset Sale Offer”), at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to the date of purchase (the “Asset Sale

Offer Amount”). The Company shall purchase pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer from all tendering holders on a pro rata basis, and, at the Company’s option, on a pro rata basis with the holders of any other Senior Indebtedness with similar provisions requiring the Company to offer to purchase the other Senior Indebtedness with the proceeds of Asset Dispositions, that principal amount (or accreted value in the case of Indebtedness issued with original issue discount) of notes and the other Senior Indebtedness to be purchased equal to such unapplied Net Cash Proceeds. The Company may satisfy its obligations under this covenant with respect to the Net Cash Proceeds of an Asset Disposition by making an Asset Sale Offer prior to the expiration of the periods contemplated below in respect of the relevant 365-day period (or such longer period as contemplated herein).

The purchase of notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer will occur not more than 60 business days following the expiration of the relevant period giving rise to the obligation to make such an offer, or any longer period as may be required by law. The Company may, however, defer an Asset Sale Offer until there is an aggregate amount of unapplied Net Cash Proceeds from one or more Asset Dispositions equal to or in excess of US$15 million. At that time, the entire amount of unapplied Net Cash Proceeds, and not just the amount in excess of US$15 million, will be applied as required pursuant to this covenant. Pending application in accordance with this covenant, Net Cash Proceeds may be applied to temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or invested in Cash Equivalents.

Each notice of an Asset Sale Offer will be mailed first class, postage prepaid, to the record holders as shown on the register of holders prior to 20 days following such 365th day (or such longer period as contemplated herein), with a copy to the Trustee offering to purchase the notes as described above. Each notice of an Asset Sale Offer will state, among other things, the purchase date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date the notice is mailed, other than as may be required by law (the “Asset Sale Offer Payment Date”). Upon receiving notice of an Asset Sale Offer, holders may elect to tender their notes in whole or in part in amounts of US$2,000 or in integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof in exchange for cash.

On the Asset Sale Offer Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(A) accept for payment all notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer;

(B) deposit with the Paying Agent funds in an amount equal to the Asset Sale Offer Amount in respect of all notes or portions thereof so tendered; and

(C) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the notes so accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Company.

To the extent holders of notes and holders of other Senior Indebtedness, if any, which are the subject of an Asset Sale Offer properly tender and do not withdraw notes or the other Senior Indebtedness in an aggregate amount exceeding the amount of unapplied Net Cash Proceeds, the Company shall, as nearly as may be practicable, purchase the notes and the other Senior Indebtedness on a pro rata basis (based on amounts tendered). If only a portion of a note is purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer, a new note in a principal amount equal to the portion thereof not purchased will be issued in the name of the holder thereof upon cancellation of the original note (or appropriate adjustments to the amount and beneficial interests in a global note will be made, as appropriate). Notes (or portions thereof) purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer will be cancelled and cannot be reissued.

The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14c-1 under the Exchange Act and any other applicable securities laws and other applicable laws in connection with the purchase of notes pursuant to an Asset Sale offer. To the extent that the provisions of any applicable securities laws or regulations or any other applicable law, including Argentine laws and regulations, conflict with the “Asset Sale” provisions of this Indenture, the Company shall comply with these laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the “Asset Sale” provisions of this Indenture by doing so.

Following the application of such Asset Sale Offer pursuant to the above, the amount of Net Available Cash shall be reset at zero and the Company shall be entitled to use any remaining proceeds for any corporate purposes to the extent not prohibited under this Indenture.

Section 3.12 Limitation on Guarantees and Indebtedness of Restricted Subsidiaries.

The Company shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, to Guarantee any Indebtedness of the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary or otherwise incur any Indebtedness having an aggregate principal amount for all non-guarantor Restricted Subsidiaries in excess of US$10.0 million (or equivalent in other currencies) at any one time outstanding unless, in any such case:

(a) such Restricted Subsidiary executes and delivers to the Trustee, together with an Opinion of Counsel, a supplemental indenture to this Indenture and a Subsidiary Guarantee to be annexed to the Notes substantially in the form of, Exhibit E and Exhibit F, respectively; and

(b) if such Guarantee is provided or other Indebtedness is Incurred with respect to Senior Indebtedness, the Subsidiary Guarantee will be pari passu with such Guarantee or other Indebtedness, as the case may be; and if such Guarantee is provided or other Indebtedness is Incurred with respect to a Subordinated obligation, the Subsidiary Guarantee will be senior to such Guarantee or other Indebtedness, as the case may be.

The obligations of each Restricted Subsidiary in respect of its Subsidiary Guarantee will be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the obligations not constituting a fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar illegal transfer under applicable law.

Each Restricted Subsidiary will be released and relieved of its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee in the event that:

(i) there is a sale or other disposition of such Restricted Subsidiary (whether by merger, consolidation, the sale of its Capital Stock or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets), following which such Restricted Subsidiary is no longer a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Company;

(ii) such Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of this Indenture;

(iii) there is a Legal Defeasance of the Notes or upon satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture; or

(iv) the Indebtedness, the Incurrence of which gave rise to such Restricted Subsidiary’s obligation to provide such Guarantee, has been repaid in full or otherwise discharged or is no longer in excess of the threshold contemplated above.

provided that such transaction is carried out pursuant to, and in accordance with, the applicable provisions of this Indenture.

Section 3.13 Limitation on Liens.

The Company shall not, and shall not cause or permit any Restricted Subsidiary to issue, assume or Guarantee any Indebtedness secured by a Lien (the “Initial Lien”) upon any property or assets of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary without effectively providing that the Notes and any Subsidiary Guarantees, as applicable (together with, if the Company so determines, any other Indebtedness or obligation then existing or thereafter created) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such Indebtedness so long as such Indebtedness shall be so secured (provided, however, that any Lien created for the benefit of the holders of the Notes (and, if applicable, holders of such other Indebtedness or obligation) pursuant to the foregoing shall provide by its terms that such Lien will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon release and discharge of the Initial Lien), except that the foregoing provisions shall not apply to (without duplication):

The Company shall pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date of each year, commencing on July 28, 2011. Interest on the Notes shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid on the Notes or, if no interest has been paid, from January 28, 2011. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal (plus interest on such interest to the extent lawful), at the rate borne by the Notes to the extent lawful. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The Company shall pay the percentage of original principal amount on each Principal Payment Date to the person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on the preceding Record Date as set forth below:

All payments made by the Company in respect of the Notes shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges imposed or levied by or on behalf of any jurisdiction where the Company is incorporated or resident for tax purposes or from or through which any payment in respect of the Notes is made by the paying agent or the Company, or any political subdivision thereof (a “Relevant Jurisdiction”), or any taxing authority of a Relevant Jurisdiction, unless such withholding or deduction is required by law or by the interpretation or administration thereof. In that event, the Company shall pay to each Holder of the Notes Additional Amounts as provided in the Indenture subject to the limitations set forth in the Indenture.

At any time prior to January 28, 2014, the Company shall have the right, at its option, to redeem any of the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to their maturity at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Notes plus the Applicable Premium (as defined in the Indenture) and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the applicable date of redemption (subject to the rights of holders of Notes on the relevant Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date); provided that at least $100 million in principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding after such redemption. The Company shall be responsible for calculating any Applicable Premium.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolated maturity (on a day count basis) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.

A-9

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. or their respective affiliates which are primary United States government securities dealers and not less than two other leading primary United States government securities dealers in New York City reasonably designated by the Company; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary United States government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 pm New York time on the third business day preceding such redemption date.

(c) Optional Redemption Upon Tax Event. The Notes may be redeemed at the Company’s election, as a whole, but not in part, by the giving of notice as provided in the Indenture, at a price in U.S. dollars equal to the outstanding principal amount thereof, together with any Additional Amounts and accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, if, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) or treaties of Argentina or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, or any change in the official application, administration or interpretation of such laws, regulations, rulings or treaties in Argentina, the Company has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts on the Notes, if such change or amendment is announced on or after the Closing Date and such obligation cannot be avoided by the Company taking reasonable measures available to it; provided, however, that no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts, were a payment in respect of the Notes then due.

Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes.

(e) Optional Redemption Procedures. If fewer than all of the Notes are being redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata by DTC in the case of Notes represented by a Global Note or by the Trustee pro rata. No Notes of a principal amount of U.S.$2,000 or less may be redeemed in part and Notes of a principal amount in excess of U.S.$2,000 may be redeemed in part in multiples of U.S.$1,000 only. Once notice of redemption is sent to the holders, Notes called for redemption become due and payable at the redemption price on the redemption date, and, commencing on the redemption date, Notes redeemed will cease to accrue interest if the redemption price is paid in full.

Notice of any redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at least 30 but not more than 90 days before the redemption date to Holders of Notes to be redeemed at their respective registered addresses. If Notes are to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. For so long as the Notes are listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for trading on the Euro MTF Market, and the rules of such Exchange require, the Company shall cause notices of redemption to also be published as provided under Section 10.1 of the Indenture. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof, if any, shall be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Note (or appropriate adjustments to the amount and beneficial interests in a Global Note shall be made, as appropriate).

Notes called for redemption shall become due on the date fixed for redemption. The Company shall pay the redemption price for any Note together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on Notes or portions thereof called for redemption as long as the Company has deposited with the Paying Agent funds in satisfaction of the applicable redemption price pursuant to the Indenture. Upon redemption of any Notes by the Company, such redeemed Notes shall be cancelled.

FOR SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEE

This Supplemental Indenture, dated as of [_____] (this “Supplemental Indenture”), among [name of Restricted Subsidiary], a [_____] [corporation] [limited liability company] (the “Subsidiary Guarantor”), Tarjeta Naranja S.A., a sociedad anónima organized and existing under the laws of Argentina, The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee, Banco de Valores, S.A., as Argentine registrar, paying agent and transfer agent and representative of the Trustee in Argentina and The Bank of New York Mellon (Luxembourg) S.A., as Luxembourg paying agent and transfer agent under the Indenture referred to below.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Company and the Trustee, among other parties, have heretofore executed and delivered an Indenture, dated as of [_____] (as amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified, the “Indenture”), providing for the issuance of [_____]% Senior Notes due 20[_____] of the Company (the “Notes”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 3.12 of the Indenture, the Company shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, by way of the pledge of any intercompany note or otherwise, to assume, guarantee or in any other manner become liable with respect to certain Indebtedness of the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, or to incur certain Indebtedness unless, in any such case such Restricted Subsidiary executes and delivers to the Trustee a Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to which such Restricted Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee, jointly and severally with any other Subsidiary Guarantors’, the Company’s full and prompt payment of the Obligations (as defined in the Indenture) in respect of the Indenture and the Notes; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 9.1 of the Indenture, the Trustee and the Company are authorized to execute and deliver this Supplemental Indenture to supplement the Indenture, without the consent of any Holder;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Subsidiary Guarantor, the Company and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the holders of the Notes as follows:

DEFINITIONS

Defined Terms. Unless otherwise defined in this Supplemental Indenture, capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Indenture.

E-1

AGREEMENT TO BE BOUND; GUARANTEE

Agreement to be Bound. The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby becomes a party to the Indenture as a Subsidiary Guarantor and as such shall have all of the rights and be subject to all of the obligations and agreements of a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture. The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees to be bound by all of the provisions of the Indenture applicable to a Subsidiary Guarantor and to perform all of the obligations and agreements of a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Indenture.

Subsidiary Guarantee.

The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, jointly and severally with each other Subsidiary Guarantor, to each Holder and the Trustee the full and punctual payment when due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, of the Obligations (such guaranteed Obligations, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees (to the extent permitted by law) that the Obligations may be modified in any manner, extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and that it shall remain bound under this supplemental indenture notwithstanding any modification, extension or renewal of any Obligation. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees to pay, in addition to the amounts stated above, any and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee or the Holders in enforcing any rights under any Subsidiary Guarantee.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (and not a guarantee of collection) and waives any right to require that any resort be had by any Holder to any security held for payment of the Obligations.

The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than payment of the Obligations in full), including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever or by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor herein shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Subsidiary Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantor as a matter of law or equity.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that its Subsidiary Guarantee herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Holder upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company or otherwise.

E-2

In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which any Holder has at law or in equity against each Subsidiary Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Company to pay any of the Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, by redemption or otherwise, each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby promises to and shall, upon receipt of written demand by the Trustee, forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, in cash, to the Holders an amount equal to the sum of:

the unpaid amount of such Obligations then due and owing; and

accrued and unpaid interest on such Obligations then due and owing (but only to the extent not prohibited by law).

Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees that, as between such Subsidiary Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Holders, on the other hand:

the maturity of the Obligations guaranteed hereby may be accelerated as provided in this Indenture for the purposes of its Subsidiary Guarantee herein, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect of the Obligations guaranteed hereby; and

in the event of any such declaration of acceleration of such Obligations, such Obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Subsidiary Guarantor for the purposes of its Subsidiary Guarantee.

Waivers. The Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) presentation to, demand of payment from and protest to the Company of any of the Obligations and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment. The Subsidiary Guarantor waives notice of any default under the Notes or the Obligations. The obligations of the Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of any Holder to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Company or any other Person under the Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any thereof; (iii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Indenture, the Notes or any other agreement; (iv) the release of any security held by any Holder or the Trustee for the Obligations or any of them; (v) the failure of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy against any other Subsidiary Guarantor; or (vi) any change in the ownership of the Company.

The Subsidiary Guarantor further expressly waives irrevocably and unconditionally:

Any right it may have to first require any Holder to proceed against, initiate any actions before a court of law or any other judge or authority, or enforce or complete the enforcement of any other rights or security (or apply as payment on such security) or claim, or complete any claim for, payment from the Company or any other Person (including any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other guarantor) before claiming from it under this Supplemental Indenture;

E-3

Any right to which it may be entitled to have the assets of the Company or any other Person (including any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other guarantor) first be used, applied or depleted as payment of the Company’s or the Subsidiary Guarantors’ obligations under the Indenture, prior to any amount being claimed from or paid by any of the Subsidiary Guarantors thereunder;

Any right to which it may be entitled to have claims hereunder divided between the Subsidiary Guarantors or between any Subsidiary Guarantors and the Company; and

[Any rights and benefits set forth in the following provisions of Argentine law: Articles 480, 481 and 482 of the Argentine Commercial Code and Articles 1990, 2020 and 2021 (other than with respect to defenses or motions based on documented payment (pago), reduction (quita), extension (espera) or release or remission (remisión), 2012, 2013 and 2024 (beneficios de excusión y división), 2025, 2026, 2029, 2043, 2046 and 2050 of the Argentine Civil Code.]¹ [TO BE INCLUDED FOR ANY ARGENTINE SUBSIDIARY GUARANTOR]

Limitation on Liability; Termination, Release and Discharge.

The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount as shall, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the Obligations not constituting a fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar illegal transfer under applicable law.

Each Subsidiary Guarantor shall be released and relieved of its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee in the event that:

there is a sale or other disposition of Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor or all or substantially all of the assets of such Subsidiary Guarantor are sold or otherwise disposed of (including by way of merger or consolidation), following which such Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a direct or indirect Subsidiary (other than a Receivables Subsidiary) of the Company;

such Subsidiary Guarantor is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with the Indenture;

there is a Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance of the Notes as described under Section 8.1 of the Indenture; or

the Indebtedness, the Incurrence of which gave rise to such Restricted Subsidiary’s obligation to provide such Subsidiary Guarantee, has been repaid in full or otherwise discharged or is no longer in excess of the threshold contemplated above.


¹		Subject to review by Argentine counsel.

E-4

provided that such transaction is carried out pursuant to, and in accordance with, the applicable provisions of the Indenture.

Right of Contribution. Each Subsidiary Guarantor that makes a payment or distribution under a Subsidiary Guarantee shall be entitled to a contribution from each other Subsidiary Guarantor in a pro rata amount, based on the net assets of each Subsidiary Guarantor determined in accordance with the relevant Argentine accounting standard. The provisions of this Section 2.5 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of each Subsidiary Guarantor to the Trustee and the Holders and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Trustee and the Holders for the full amount guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder.

No Subrogation. Each Subsidiary Guarantor agrees that it shall not be entitled to any right of subrogation in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations until payment in full in cash of all Obligations. If any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full in cash, such amount shall be held by such Subsidiary Guarantor in trust for the Trustee and the Holders, segregated from other funds of such Subsidiary Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Subsidiary Guarantor, be turned over to the Trustee in the exact form received by such Subsidiary Guarantor (duly endorsed by such Subsidiary Guarantor to the Trustee, if required), to be applied against the Obligations.

MISCELLANEOUS

Notices. Any notice or communication delivered to the Company under the provisions of the Indenture shall constitute notice to the Subsidiary Guarantor.

Parties. Nothing expressed or mentioned herein is intended or shall be construed to give any Person, firm or corporation, other than the Holders and the Trustee, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Supplemental Indenture or the Indenture or any provision herein or therein contained.

Governing Law, etc. This Supplemental Indenture shall be governed by the provisions set forth in Section 10.6 of the Indenture.

Severability. In case any provision in this Supplemental Indenture shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforce ability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforeeability.
