Camposol S.A. ("Camposol") is publishing this notice, pursuant to the requirements of U.S. Treas. Reg. §1.1273-2(f) (the "Regulation"), with respect to the exchange offer (the "Exchange Offer") which was settled on May 27, 2016. The Regulation requires the issuer of a debt instrument to determine whether the debt instrument is "publicly traded" as provided by the Regulation and, if so, the fair market value of the debt instrument. The Regulation also requires an issuer who has determined that a debt instrument is "publicly traded" as provided by the Regulation to make that determination as well as the fair market value of the debt instrument, which can be stated as its "issue price," available to holders in a commercially reasonable fashion, including by electronic publication, within 90 days of the date of issue of the debt instrument.
Therefore, pursuant to the requirements of the Regulation, Camposol hereby notifies the holders of the 10.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2021 (the "New Notes") that Camposol has determined that the New Notes are "publicly traded" as provided by the Regulation and the issue price of the New Notes was 100% of their principal amount. As provided by the Regulation, this determination is binding upon all holders of the New Notes unless the holder explicitly discloses, in accordance with the requirements of the Regulation, that its determination is different from Camposol's determination on the holder's timely filed Federal income tax return for the taxable year that includes its acquisition date of the New Notes.
This notice is only intended to fulfill Camposol's notification obligation under the Regulation and does not constitute tax advice. Camposol advises each holder of the New Notes to obtain professional tax advice to determine the implications of this notification on the determination of the holder's income tax liabilities.
