Listing Particulars









TELECOM ARGENTINA S.A.
U.S.$400,000,000 8.000% Notes due 2026
We are offering U.S.$400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 8.000% notes due 2026, which we refer to
as the "notes." The notes will mature on July 18, 2026. Interest on the notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears on
January 18 and July 18 of each year, commencing on January 18, 2020 calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months. At any time prior to July 18, 2023, we may redeem the notes, at our option, in whole or in part, at a
redemption price equal to the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus a "make-whole" amount described in
the attached listing particulars, accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts, if any, to the date of redemption. At
any time and from time to time on or after July 18, 2023, we may redeem the notes, at our option, in whole or in part at
redemption prices described in the attached listing particulars, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts,
if any, to the date of redemption. We may also redeem all, but not less than all, of the notes in the event of changes in tax
laws that increase the withholding taxes applicable to payments under the notes. There will be no mandatory redemption
or sinking fund payments for the notes, but under certain circumstances, holders of the notes will have the right to require
us to repurchase the notes. See "Description of the Notes."
The notes will be our general, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, ranking equally without any preference
among themselves and with all of our other present and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness from time to
time outstanding, except as otherwise provided by law. The notes will be subordinated to all of our existing and future
secured obligations to the extent of the value of the assets securing such obligations, and to all of the existing and future
obligations of our subsidiaries.
The notes will constitute non-convertible negotiable obligations under, and will be issued pursuant to, and in
compliance with all the requirements of, and will be entitled to the benefits set forth and subject to the procedural
requirements established in, the Argentine Negotiable Obligations Law No. 23,576, as amended (the "Negotiable
Obligations Law"), Law No. 26,831, as amended (the "Argentine Securities Law"), the General Resolution No. 622/2013,
as amended (the "Resolution 622"), issued by the Comisión Nacional de Valores, the Argentine Securities Commission
(the "CNV"), and any other applicable laws and regulations of the Republic of Argentina ("Argentina").
The attached listing particulars constitute a prospectus for purposes of Part IV of the Luxembourg law on
prospectuses for securities dated July 16, 2019. We have applied to have the notes listed on the Bolsa y Mercados
Argentinos S.A. ("ByMA") through the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange (Bolsa de Comercio de Buenos Aires or "BASE")
and to have the notes admitted to trading on the Argentine over-the-counter market, the Mercado Abierto Electrónico S.A.
(the "MAE") and we have applied to list the notes on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and admitted
to trading on the Euro MTF, the exchange regulated market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (the "Euro MTF
Market").
Investing in the notes involves risks that are described in the "Risk Factors" section beginning on page 9
of these listing particulars and the section entitled "Item 3--Key Information--Risk Factors" in our annual report
on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, which is incorporated by reference in the listing
particulars.

The notes constitute our Series 1 notes issued under our U.S.$3,000,000,000 Global Note Program authorized
by the CNV by Resolution No. 19,481 dated April 19, 2018 (the "Program"). The CNV authorization means only that the
information requirements of the CNV have been satisfied. Offers of the notes to the public in Argentina were made by a






prospectus and a prospectus supplement in the Spanish language in accordance with CNV regulations containing
substantially the same information as these listing particulars, other than with respect to the description of U.S. securities
and tax laws that are relevant to the notes, but in a different format (the "Argentine Listing Particulars"). The CNV has
not rendered any opinion in respect of the accuracy of the information contained in the Argentine Listing Particulars or
these listing particulars.
The notes have not been registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), or with the securities regulatory authority of any state or other jurisdiction in the United States.
The notes may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. persons, except to qualified institutional
buyers ("QIBs") in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A under the Securities Act
("Rule 144A"), and to non-U.S. persons in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities
Act ("Regulation S"). You are hereby notified that sellers of the notes may be relying on the exemption from the
provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A. Any offer or sale of bonds in any Member
State of the European Economic Area, must be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Regulation
(EU) 2017/1129 from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of notes. For further details about eligible
offerees and resale restrictions, see "Transfer Restrictions."
Delivery of the notes is expected to be made to investors in book-entry form through the facilities of The
Depository Trust Company ("DTC") for the accounts of its direct and indirect participants, including Euroclear Bank
S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System ("Euroclear"), and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme, Luxembourg
("Clearstream"), on or about July 18, 2019.
On July 10, 2019, we announced a cash tender offer (the "Tender Offer") for up to U.S.$250 million aggregate
principal amount of our 6.500% Notes due June 15, 2021 (the "Tender Notes"). We intend to use a portion of the net
proceeds from the sale of the notes (i) to pay the consideration for the Tender Offer and accrued and unpaid interest on
the Tender Notes, (ii) to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Tender Offer and (iii) the remainder, to
refinance other long-term indebtedness of the Company. The Tender Offer is not being made pursuant to these listing
particulars. The closing of the Tender Offer is contingent upon the closing of this offering. However, the closing of this
offering is not contingent on any level of participation in the Tender Offer.

generally intended to identify forward-looking statements.
These statements reflect the current views of our Management of the Company with respect to future events.
They are not guarantees of future performance and involve certain risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. In
addition, certain forward-looking statements are based upon assumptions as to future events that may not prove to be
accurate.
Many factors could cause actual results, performance or achievements of Telecom Group to be materially
different from any future results, performance or achievements that may be expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. These factors include, among others:
·
factors described in these listing particulars under the heading "Risk Factors" and other documents

currencies and transfer funds abroad;
·
the manner in which the Argentine government implements Law No. 27,078, the Argentina Digital Law or

the creditworthiness of our actual or potential customers;
·
nationalization, expropriation and/or increased government intervention in companies;
·
technological changes;
·
the impact of legal or regulatory matters, changes in the interpretation of current or future regulations or
reform and changes in the legal or regulatory environment in which we operate;
·
the effects of increased competition;
·
reliance on content produced by third parties;
·
increasing cost of our supplies;
·
inability to finance on reasonable terms capital expenditures required to remain competitive;

·
fluctuations, whether seasonal or in response to adverse macro-economic developments, in the demand for
advertising;
·
our capacity to compete and develop our business in the future; and
·
the impact of increased national or international restrictions on the transfer or use of telecommunications
technology.
Many of these factors are macroeconomic and regulatory in nature and therefore beyond our control. Should one
or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary
materially from those described herein as anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended, planned or projected. We
do not intend and do not assume any obligation to update the forward-looking statements contained in these listing
particulars.
These forward-looking statements are based upon a number of assumptions and other important factors that
could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from our future results, performance or
achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Readers are encouraged to consult the our filings
made on Form 20-F and Form 6-K, which are periodically filed with or furnished to the United States Securities and
Exchange Commission.

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION
Telecom Argentina S.A. is a company incorporated under the laws of Argentina. Unless otherwise stated, the
terms "the Company," "Telecom," "Telecom Group," "we," "us," and "our" refer to Telecom Argentina S.A. and its
consolidated subsidiaries as of December 31, 2018. Unless otherwise stated, references to the financial results of
"Telecom" are to the consolidated financial results of Telecom Argentina and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Telecom
Group is engaged in the provision of fixed and mobile telecommunications services, cable television services and
broadband services.
The financial information incorporated by reference herein for Telecom Argentina S.A. is prepared and presented
in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") as issued by the International Accounting
Standards Board ("IASB").
Our audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 and for the years ended
December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 and the notes thereto (the "Consolidated Financial Statements"), have been prepared
in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB and have been audited by Price Waterhouse & Co. S.R.L. (a member firm
of the PricewaterhouseCoopers network) an independent registered public accounting firm ("Price Waterhouse") and are
included in Item 18 of the TEO 2018 20-F, incorporated by reference in this listing particulars.
Due to the high level of inflation prevailing in Argentina during the last three years, our management analyzed the
parameters established by IAS 29 "Financial reporting in hyperinflationary economies" - paragraph 3, which describe the
conditions to consider an economy as hyperinflationary, and concluded that, with respect to Argentina, such conditions
have been met for accounting periods ending after July 1, 2018. Therefore, we have restated our Consolidated Financial
Statements, the Q1 2019 Unaudited Financial Statements and the financial information for all the periods reported
incorporated by reference herein based on certain price indexes to take into account the effect of inflation in Argentina.
The Consolidated Financial Statements and the Q1 2019 Unaudited Financial Statements are presented on the basis of
constant Argentine pesos as of December 31, 2018 (as described in the TEO 2018 20-F) and March 31, 2019 (as described
in the Q1 2019 Unaudited Financial Statements), respectively ("current currency"). See "Certain Circumstances Affecting
Comparability of Our Operations", "--Risk factors--Risk Related to Argentina--Inflation could accelerate, causing
adverse effects on the economy and negatively impacting Telecom's margins," "Item 5--Operating and Financial Review
and Prospects--Economic and Political Developments in Argentina" in the TEO 2018 20-F and Note 1.e) to our
Consolidated Financial Statements.
Telecom Argentina and its subsidiaries maintain their accounting records and prepare their financial statements in
Argentine Pesos, which is their functional currency, except for Núcleo and its subsidiaries and TVD (using Guaraníes),
Telecom Argentina USA (using U.S. dollars) and Adesol (using Uruguayan pesos). Our Consolidated Financial
Statements and our Q1 2019 Unaudited Financial Statements include the results of these subsidiaries converted into
Argentine Pesos. Assets and liabilities are converted at period-end exchange rates and income and expenses accounts at
average exchange rates for each period presented, as restated in terms of the current currency by applying an average
index to take into account the effect of inflation in Argentina.

Rounding
