Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, March 24, 2014

To the

Comisión Nacional de Valores

(National Securities Commission)

Ref.: Information pursuant to

Article 2, Ch. 1, Title XII of the

National Securities Commission

rules – Incident at the Cerro

Divisadero Plant

The purpose of this letter is to comply with the requirements of Article 2 of Chapter 1 of Title XII of the National Securities Commission rules.

In that connection, please be advised that on March 21, a fire occurred at the Cerro Divisadero crude oil treatment plant, located 20 kilometers from the town of Bardas Blancas in the province of Mendoza.

The Cerro Divisadero plant, which has 6 tanks, 4 of which are for processing and 2 are for dispatch of treated crude oil, concentrates the production of 10 deposits in the Malargue area, which constitutes a daily production of approximately 9,200 barrels of oil and represents 3.8% of the oil production of YPF.

Currently, the fire has been completely extinguished and maintenance works have commenced to reinitiate operations of the surrounding facilities, which had been preventatively shut down due to the risk of being affected, and to work on reestablishing production. The technical personnel of the company are currently defining the plan for the total resumption of activities in the coming days.

The throughput of crude oil to the Luján de Cuyo refinery was not affected and the refinery operates within the anticipated conditions.

Yours truly,

Alejandro Cherñacov

Market Relations Officer

YPF S.A.
