Item 1.  Security and Issuer

 

This Amendment No. 2 (the Second Amendment) amends the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 2, 2018, as amended on June 22, 2018 (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 Second 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 Second Amendment, all information set forth in the Schedule 13D is hereby unaffected. All capitalized terms used in this Second 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 November 28, 2018, CVH filed a pre-commencement communication under cover of Schedule TO-C, announcing that CVH was served with a decision rendered by the Federal Civil and Commercial Court No. 3 sitting in the City of Buenos Aires granting an injunction ordering the Argentine Securities and Exchange Commission (Comisión Nacional de Valores, or the CNV) to abstain for six months from issuing any decision with respect to the authorization of the mandatory OPA to acquire Class B Shares of Telecom Argentina that CVH formulated and promoted in accordance with Argentine law on June 21, 2018. The injunction substituted a preliminary injunction rendered by the same court on September 20, 2018. The injunction required CVH to post bond prior to the injunction being served and such bond was deemed accepted by the court effective on the date hereof.

 

On July 17, 2018, FTL filed a pre-commencement communication under cover of Schedule TO-C whereby it notified that it would no longer jointly participate with CVH as a co-offeror in any U.S. offer to purchase for cash of any outstanding Class B Shares or ADSs (each ADS representing rights to five Class B Shares) held by U.S. persons and terminated any possible participation in such tender offer as of such date.  Notwithstanding the termination of FTLs possible participation in the tender offer, FTL, pursuant to section 6.7 of the Telecom Shareholders Agreement, has undertaken to pay and acquire 50% of the Class B Shares and ADSs tendered in the tender offer (subject the right of CVH to acquire by itself the first 43,073,760 Shares).
