The Province of Chubut (the “Province“) announced today the aggregate principal amount of the notes listed in the table below (the “Existing Notes“) that has been validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to its previously announced offer to purchase for cash (the “Offer“) the Existing Notes from each registered holder or beneficial owner (each, a “Holder” and, collectively, the “Holders”), subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the offer document dated February 23, 2026 (the “Offer Document“). Capitalized terms not defined in this announcement have the meanings specified in the Offer Document.

The purchase price to be paid per U.S.$1,000 original principal amount of Existing Notes that are accepted pursuant to the Offer is indicated in the table below (the “Purchase Price“). In addition to the Purchase Price, Holders whose Existing Notes are accepted for purchase in the Offer will also receive any accrued and unpaid interest from, and including, the last interest payment date for the Existing Notes to, but excluding, the Settlement Date (the “Accrued Interest“).

The following table indicates the outstanding aggregate principal amount of Existing Notes that have been validly tendered and accepted pursuant to the Offer, subject to satisfaction of the conditions to the Offer on or prior to the Settlement Date.

  1. These are outstanding principal amounts, after the application of the Amortization Factor (as defined herein). The current outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Existing Notes is U.S.$231,953,374.25, which reflects the original aggregate principal amount of U.S.$650,000,000 multiplied by an amortization factor of 0.356851345000 (the “Amortization Factor”). The Amortization Factor results from the fact that the Existing Notes have been partially amortized.
  2. The payment that a holder will receive is the Purchase Price times the original principal amount of Existing Notes accepted times the Amortization Factor. In addition, investors will receive Accrued Interest, as described below.

The Offer is conditioned, among other things, on the concurrent (or earlier) closing of the offering of 9.450% Notes due 2036 (the “New Notes“), including in an aggregate principal amount sufficient to fund the Offer (the “New Notes Offering“). The New Notes Offering was made solely by means of the offering memorandum relating to the offering of the New Notes (the “New Notes Offering Memorandum“), and neither this announcement nor the Offer Document constitutes an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the New Notes.

The settlement of validly tendered and accepted Existing Notes is expected to occur on April 29, 2026, subject to change without notice (the “Settlement Date“). Holders of validly tendered and accepted Existing Notes will be entitled to receive for such Existing Notes the applicable Purchase Price and Accrued Interest if the conditions of the Offer are met.
