Item 1.  Security and Issuer

 

This Amendment No. 4 (the Fourth Amendment) amends the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 2, 2018, as amended (the Schedule 13D), by the Reporting Persons (as defined in the Schedule 13D), with respect to the Class B shares, Ps. 1.00 par value per share (the Class B Shares) of Telecom Argentina S.A. (the Issuer or Telecom Argentina), a portion of which is represented by American Depositary Shares (ADSs) which are traded on the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE). The principal executive offices of the Issuer are located at Alicia Moreau de Justo 50, 10th floor, 1107 Buenos Aires, Argentina. This Fourth Amendment should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the Schedule 13D. Except as disclosed in and expressly amended by this Fourth Amendment, all information set forth in the Schedule 13D is hereby unaffected. All capitalized terms used in this Fourth Amendment and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

 

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

 

The description contained herein supplements Item 4 in the Schedule 13D and should be read in connection therewith:

 

On June 10, 2019, CVH was served with notice of an injunction (the Injunction) rendered on May 9, 2019 in the case Burgueño Daniel a / EN-CNV a / Injunction (Autonomous) (File No. 89537/2018) pending before the Federal Contentious Administrative Court No. 1, Secretariat No. 1, suspending the process relating to the mandatory tender offer to acquire shares of Telecom, initiated by CVH before the CNV, until the CNV resolves on the applicability of Resolution No. 779/18 or the expiration of the term contemplated in section 5 of Law No. 26,854 governing injunctions.

 

If the relevant provisions of Resolution No. 779/18, which exclude from the mandatory tender offer regime certain mergers involving companies with publicly traded shares, are determined to be applicable to CVHs acquisition of control in Telecom as a result of Cablevisión S.A.s merger into Telecom, CVH would not be subject to an obligation to promote and formulate the tender offer for shares of Telecom as well as any other limitation arising as a result of such obligation.

 

On May 6, 2019, the Federal Civil and Commercial Court No. 3 in re Cablevisión Holding S.A. v. Argentine Securities Commission on Injunctions (File No. 7998/2018) had ordered an extension of the injunction separately obtained by CVH for a term of three additional months as from its expiration date.
