METROGAS S.A. NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 AND COMPARATIVES (amounts in thousands of pesos, except where expressly stated otherwise)

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

MetroGAS S.A. (“MetroGAS” or the “Company”) is a sociedad anónima organized under the laws of the Republic of Argentina. The registered office and principal place of business is located at Gregorio Aráoz de Lamadrid 1360 – Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires.

The Company was formed in 1992 and on December 1, 1992 it was registered as a corporation pursuant the laws of the Republic of Argentina under number 11,670, Book 112, Volume A of Sociedades Anónimas. The term of duration of the Company expires on December 1, 2091 and its principal business is the provision of natural gas distribution services.

On November 2, 1994, the Argentine Securities Commission (“CNV”), pursuant to Resolution No. 10,706, authorized to public offering all the Company’s outstanding shares that at such date composed the capital stock. American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) were issued in the United States and were registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Shares of the Company are listed on Buenos Aires Stock Exchange (“BCBA”) and its ADSs on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), respectively. On June 17, 2010, the NYSE informed that MetroGAS ADSs had been suspended from trading as a result of the Company´s filing for reorganization proceeding.

MetroGAS’ controlling shareholder is Gas Argentino S.A. (“Gas Argentino”) whose principal business is the investment. As of September 30, 2013, the controlling shareholder of Gas Argentino is YPF S.A. through its subsidiary YPF Inversora Energética S.A. (“YIESA”) (see Note 2.1).

MetroGAS controls MetroEnergía S.A. (“MetroEnergía”) whose principal business is the sale of natural gas and/or transport on its own behalf or on account of third parties.

2. ECONOMIC AND FINANCIAL POSITION AND REGULATORY FRAMEWORK

The changes in the economic conditions of the country and the amendments introduced by the Public Emergency Law towards the end of 2001, have impacted the economic and financial position of the Company affected by the suspension of the original regime of tariffs adjustment, added to the increase in the operating costs to maintain the quality of service. The Company estimates that, if the conditions as of the date of issuance of these financial statements continue, the situation will continue to deteriorate, for this reason, the management has evaluated a variety of measures to mitigate the impact of the current financial situation, including:

- escalating the Company claims to Argentine authorities on the approval of tariff increases (including the pass-through of municipal levies);

- procuring the strict management of cash-flow and control our expenditures;

- requiring additional capital contributions from shareholders;

- modifying payment conditions with our principal suppliers and the Trust Funds; and

- obtaining financing from third parties.

The Company is under a renegotiation process of certain terms of the License with the Argentine Government in order to oppose the negative impact produced by the mentioned circumstances, which situation has not been resolved to the date of these interim financial statements.

In this context, in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 the Company registered a significant increase in the operating loss. Likewise, as of September 30, 2013, the Company registered cumulative losses amounting to Ps. 727,828 thousand and the consolidated negative working capital to Ps. 94,424 thousand.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting standards applicable to a going concern. As of the date of issuance of these financial statements, it is neither possible to foresee the outcome of the tariff negotiation process nor to determine its final consequences on the Company’s results and operations. The above mentioned circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. However, the Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments or reclassifications, if any, that might be required from the unsuccessful outcome of the situation described above.

In Note 1 of the Annex I to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013, which includes information as of December 31, 2012, the aspects related to the economic and financial situation and regulatory framework are described. There follow the significant developments occurred during the nine months period ended September 30, 2013:

2.1 Change in Company control

On April 26, 2013, MetroGAS was informed of Resolution ENARGAS No I/2566 D, dated April 19, 2013, whereby ENARGAS approved the purchase by YPF Inversora Energética S.A. of 54.67% of Gas Argentino. Class A shares from BG Inversiones Argentinas S.A. and of 2.73% of MetroENERGÍA S.A. shares from BG Argentina S.A., without prejudice of the involvement of Comisión Nacional de Defensa de la Competencia (National Committee for the Defense of the Competition).

On May 3, 2013, Gas Argentino reported that BG Inversiones Argentinas S.A. had transferred to YPF Inversora Energética S.A. (“YIESA”) 46,010,284 ordinary, registered shares with nominal value of $ 1 and one vote per Class A share, representative of 54.67 % of the capital stock of Gas Argentino, owner of 70% of MetroGAS’s shares. Thus, YPF S.A. through YIESA obtained 100% of the capital stock and votes of Gas Argentino and it will indirectly have, through Gas Argentino, 70% of the capital stock and votes of MetroGAS.

In addition, BG Argentina S.A. transferred to YIESA 6,279 ordinary, registered shares with nominal value of $ 1 and one vote per share, representative of 2.73 % of the capital stock of MetroENERGÍA.

On August 1, 2013, YIESA, under the terms of art. 215 of the Law of Corporations transferred to OPERADORA DE ESTACIONES DE SERVICIOS S.A. (“OPESSA”) 1,683,246 ordinary, Class A, registered, non-endorsable, shares with $1 nominal value each and one vote per share, that represent 2% of the Gas Argentino´s capital stock.

2.2 MetroGAS Reorganization Proceeding

In compliance with the reorganization proceeding as described in Note 1.1 to the Annex I to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013, on January 11, 2013, MetroGAS issued new notes which were delivered in exchange to financial creditors and non-financial creditors who were admitted and declared acceptable as detailed in Note 16.

On February 1 and February 13, 2013, MetroGAS submitted before the intervening Court the documentation evidencing compliance with the debt exchange and the issuance of the new notes in order to obtain the removal of all general inhibitions and the legal declaration of the accomplishment of the proceeding within the terms and conditions of Section 59 of the Argentine Bankruptcy Law.

On March 26, 2013, the MetroGAS Board of Directors decided by a majority of votes to capitalize 100% of the portion subject to capitalization of interest payable on June 30, 2013 and to issue Additional Negotiable Obligations for such capitalization.

Furthermore, the Board also decided to issue New Negotiable Obligations for the new unsecured creditors, as long as their credits have been verified by a ruling in the Reorganization Proceedings.

On July 25, 2013, MetroGAS issued:

· Negotiable Obligations of Late Verification:

ü Series A-U: U$S 5,087,459

ü Series B-U: U$S 4,013,541

· Negotiable Obligations of Capitalization:

ü Additional Series A-L: U$S 6,756,665

ü Additional Series A-U: U$S 704,581

On September 9, 2013, MetroGAS made a formal presentation in the Reorganization File requesting the reorganization proceedings be declared complied with. At the time these financial statements were closed the judge had not yet ruled on the matter in question.

2.3 MetroGAS Intervention

On May 31, 2013, ENARGAS published Resolution ENRG I-2,587/13 providing for the termination of the intervention of that entity at MetroGAS. The intervention had been originally established in June 2010 as a consequence of MetroGAS’ Shareholders Reorganization Proceedings.

2.4 Regulatory Framework

2.4.1 Tariff Renegotiation – Charge Resolution ENARGAS 2,407/12

On March 27, 2013, MetroGAS received, from the Execution Committee, the notification of approval of the Consolidation and Expansion Investment Plan submitted on February 1, 2013.

2.5 Incentive Policies

There are various schemes fostered by the National Government to boost the natural gas industry which, although initially have no direct impact on MetroGAS, nor do they impose any obligations on the company, might actually have favorable consequences considering that one of their main objectives is to increase natural gas injections. The various schemes are described below:

2.5.1 “Plan Energía Total” (Total Energy Plan)

Within the framework of this Plan, ENARSA injects certain volumes for CNG filling stations above the volumes injected by producers according to the specific auctions carried out by MEG (Gas Electronic Market). On July 10, 2013, ENARGAS issued Resolution ENRG I-2,621/13 that provided that the regional distributors shall invoice the volumes injected by ENARSA on behalf of the latter together with the billing for the natural gas distribution and transportation service, and shall then render all accounts for the amounts thus invoiced. The Resolution specifically states that the higher costs that the invoicing on behalf of ENARSA generates to Distributors may not be passed through to consumers but they will eventually be covered within the framework of specific agreements that shall be negotiated and agreed between the Distributors and ENARSA resulting from that regulation. The operation in question applies to the volumes injected by ENARSA as from June 2013. As of the date of issuance of these financial statements, the agreement with ENARSA for higher costs is still pending.

2.5.2 Program to Encourage the Surplus Injection of Natural Gas

Resolution 1/2013 dated January 18, 2013, of the Strategic Planning and Coordination of the National Plan of Hydrocarbon Investments (“CPCEPNIH”), approved the Program to Encourage the Surplus Injection of Natural Gas with the objective of encouraging gas producers to increase their injections for supplying the internal market through the acknowledgement of higher prices above those effectively charged through the National Government’s compensation system. Via Resolutions 7/2013 and 8/2013 issued by the above mentioned Committee on July 4, 2013 (i) the deadline for adhering to the abovementioned Program, originally set for June 30, 2013, was extended until August 16, 2013, and (ii) a mechanism was approved for making advanced payments to producers of up to 75% of the compensations due to them for their surplus injections of natural gas. Through Resolution CPCEPNIH 32/2013 the deadline for adhering to the Program in question was extended until October 4, 2013.

2.5.3 Scheme for the Promotion of Investment for Hydrocarbon Exploitation

On July 15, 2013, the Official Gazette published Executive Order PEN 929/13 which provided the creation of a Scheme for the Promotion of Investments for Hydrocarbon Exploitation with the objective, among others, of obtaining the self-supply of hydrocarbons.

The principal items of this new scheme are:

· Submission of investment projects for over U$S1,000,000,000 in 5 years.

· As from the fifth year after Project start up, free availability of 20% of hydrocarbons to be marketed in the external market at 0% exportation duties.

· Free availability of 100% of the currency resulting from such exportation without the obligation of settling them locally provided the previous income of U$S 1,000,000,000 of committed investment has been credited.

· Price and currency compensation mechanism in the event that, due to a shortage in the local market, exports were suspended, and to ensure producers that (i) their 20% of not exported hydrocarbons would be collected locally in pesos at reference export prices and (ii) they may buy freely available dollars with those pesos.

· Organization of the “Concession for the Non-Conventional Exploitation of Hydrocarbons” (shale gas, shale oil, tight sands, tight gas, tight oil and/or coal bed methane) for 25 years plus a 10-year extension.

· The application authority is the Strategic Planning and Coordination Committee of the National Plan of Hydrocarbon Investments, in charge of scheme regulation.

CPCEPNIH 49/2013 was published on September 30, 2013, which required the presentation of the 2014 investment plans.

3. BASIS FOR PRESENTATION AND ADOPTION OF THE INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS (“IFRS”)

3.1 Adoption of the International Financial Reporting Standards

The CNV has set forth, through Resolution No. 562/09 and No. 576/10, the enforcement of Technical Resolution (“TR”) No. 26 and 29 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils in Economic Sciences (“FACPCE “) which adopt the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) for entities included in the public offer regime of Law No. 17,811 due to their capital stock or to their notes, or those that have applied to be included in said regime.

On January 24, 2012, in order to evaluate the applicability and impact of IFRIC 12 “Service Concession Arrangements” for registrant licensees of the public service of natural gas transport and distribution, as well as, their controlling companies, the CNV issued Resolution No. 600 extending the enforcement of the IFRS to the fiscal year commencing on January 1, 2013. Afterwards, on December 12, 2012, the CNV issued Resolution No. 613 establishing that licensees of the public service of natural gas transport and distribution companies and their controlling companies are not included in the scope of the IFRIC12. See “Key Accounting Estimates and Judgments” in Note 3, Annex I to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013.

Consequently, the application of the IFRS is compulsory for the Company as from fiscal year commenced on January 1, 2013, being these, the first financial statements for the nine months period submitted under these standards. The transition date to the IFRS for the Company as established in the IFRS 1 “First Time Adoption of IFRS” is January 1, 2012.

The Company financial statements were previously prepared in accordance with the Argentine GAAP. The Argentine GAAP differs in some areas from the IFRS. To prepare these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the Company has modified certain accounting policies of appraisal and exposure previously applied under the Argentine GAAP to conform the IFRS. The principal accounting policies are described in the following notes.

The comparatives figures and those corresponding to the transition date (January 1, 2012) have been modified to reflect those adjustments. In Note 3.6 there appears an adjustment among the figures of the net worth, related to the consolidated financial statements issued under the Argentine GAAP as of September 30, 2012, as of December 31, 2012 and as of the transition date (January 1, 2012) and of the results and other comprehensive results for the nine months period ended September 30, 2012 and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 and the amounts submitted under the IFRS in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, as well as the effects of the adjustment in the cash flows.

3.2 Filing of These Interim Financial Statements

In accordance with Title IV of the Informative Periodic Regime, Chapter I, Informative Regime, Section I, General Dispositions, Article 1, point b.1) of CNV standards, the Company has opted for presenting its condensed interim consolidated financial statements in condensed foreseen in the International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” and the IFRS 1 “First Time Adoption of IFRS”. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared pursuant the accounting policies that the Company expects to adopt in its annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2013. The accounting policies are based on the IFRS issued by the IASB and the interpretations issued by the IFRIC which are expected to be applicable as of said date.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in thousands of pesos, except where expressly stated otherwise.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read together with the Company annual financial statements as of December 31, 2012 prepared in accordance with the Argentine GAAP. Additionally, in the Annex I to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013 there appear information under the IFRC as of December 31, 2012 necessary for understanding these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been approved by the Board of Directors for issuance on November 14, 2013.

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the nine months periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 have not been audited. The Company estimates that they include all the adjustments necessary to fairly present the results for each period.

3.3 Seasonable Character of the Operations

The sales and profits of the Company are highly influenced by the weather conditions prevailing in Argentina. The natural gas demand and consequently, the MetroGAS sale and profits are considerably higher during the winter months (May to September) due to the volumes of gas sold and to the tariffs mix that affects the sales profit and net margin.

3.4 Initial application of International Financial Reporting Standards

IFRS 1 allows to the entities that adopt for the first time the standards to consider some sole exemptions and exceptions to the principle of retroactive application of certain IFRS in force. Said exceptions have been foreseen by the IASB to simplify the first application of said rules.

- Optional exemptions adopted by the Company:

Cost attributed to Properties, plant and equipment and Investment properties: the cost of Properties, plant and equipment and Investment properties, restated under the accounting standards in force have been adopted as deemed cost as of the transition date to IFRS, since that cost is similar to the cost or depreciated cost under the IFRS, adjusted to reflect the changes in a general or specific prices index. Likewise, the IFRS establish alternative criteria for the measurement after the initial recognition of each class of property that composes the items of Properties, plant and equipment, foreseeing that the “cost model” or “revaluation model” is to be used. The Management of the Company has elected to continue applying the “cost model” to all classes of property which compose Properties, plant and equipment and Investment properties.

Financial leasing: The Company determined if the agreements in force as of the date of transition to IFRS included a leasing, as from the consideration of facts and circumstances existing as of said date.

- Mandatory exceptions applicable to the Company:

Estimates: the estimates carried out by the Company under IFRS to the date of transition to IFRS are consistent with the estimates carried out as of the same date under Argentine GAAP.

Derecognition of financial assets and liabilities: the Company, pursuant IFRS 1, applied the IFRS 9 prospectively to the financial liabilities written off as a result of the restructuring of its financial debt carried out on May 12, 2006 as it did not have the necessary information to apply the IFRS 9 upon initial recognition of these transactions.

The following mandatory exceptions provided by IFRS 1 have not been applied as they were not identified significant operations for the Company:

· Hedge accounting

· Non-controlling interests

· Embedded derivatives.

3.5 Major Differences in Valuation Criteria

The main differences we have identified between Argentine GAAP and IFRS are described below:

Inventories

Under IFRS, materials were reclassified to Properties, plant and equipment and valued at the lesser of cost or net realizable value, considering an allowance for obsolescence of materials, if applicable, while under Argentine GAAP they were valued at their replacement cost.

Other Receivables

Under Argentine GAAP the Company had been recognizing as receivables any charges transferable to customers under the regulatory framework established in its License and for which evidence of effective recognition in the past was available, as described in Note 1.3.8 of the Annex attached to the consolidated financial statements. In spite of the fact that the Company has satisfied all necessary requirements for approval, the issuance of a resolution authorizing the effective inclusion of those charges in bills to customers by different governmental agencies has been delayed. In the absence of this resolution and under IAS 18, any payments made may not be taken as receivables for their whole nominal amount until a resolution approving and implementing the relevant transfer will have been issued.

In addition, under Argentine GAAP, the Company recognized as receivables any deferred income tax asset balances and income tax or minimum presumed income tax credits which are deemed recoverable based on an estimation of future taxable profits. If a company suffers recurrent tax losses, IAS 12 – Income Tax allows only the recognition of deferred income tax assets and income tax credits provided that they may be offset against deferred income tax liabilities.

MetroENERGÍA’s Revenue recognition

With reference to some transactions made for the account and on behalf of MetroENERGÍA’s third parties, and following the criteria established by NIC 18 that state the parameters to be considered when transactions are made by principal or agent, the Company considers that, taking into account the relevant facts and circumstances mentioned in that rule, it should include as its own all the sales and costs of those transactions, not just the commission that MetroENERGÍA receives as an intermediary. In that respect, the figures of the comparative financial statements attached have been readjusted to consider the change mentioned. This modification implied an increase in revenues and operating costs with no impact in gross profit, operating result or net and comprehensive result.

Tax Effect of IFRS Reconciling Items

This adjustment represents the effect of deferred income tax at a 35% rate on the IFRS reconciling items described above.

The Company has identified major differences regarding the valuation of its subsidiary MetroENERGÍA and has not detected substantial changes between IFRS and Argentine GAAP, considering that mentioned before.

3.6 Required Reconciliations

In accordance with the provisions of FACPCE, TR No. 26 and No. 29, the reconciliation of net worth as determined under Argentine accounting standards and under IFRS as of September 30, 2012, as of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, and the reconciliation of comprehensive income for the nine-month period ended on September 30, 2012 and the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2012, are included below. In this respect, when preparing these reconciliations, the Company has taken into account those IFRS that it believes will be applicable for the preparation of its financial statements as of December 31, 2013. The items and figures contained in this note are subject to change and may only be considered final when the annual financial statements for the fiscal year when IFRS will be applied for the first time will be prepared.

The items and figures included in the reconciliation might be modified in the event that at the time of preparing the financial statements as of December 31, 2013 different standards are used.

3.6.1 Reconciliation of balance sheet:

The information as at September 30, 2012, under professional Argentine rules, results from the individual financial statements at that date, after registering the deferred liabilities for the effect of the inflation of Property, plant and equipment registered as at December 31, 2012 by MetroGAS.

The following tables show the reconciliation of the balance sheet under Argentine GAAP and IFRS as of September 30, 2012.

4. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies adopted for these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are detailed in Note 3 to these financial statements and in the Annex I to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of June 30, 2013, and are based on the IFRS expected to be in effect as of December 31, 2013.

For purposes of accounting for the exchange for new notes under debt restructuring proceedings effected on January 11, 2013, as described in Note 16 on financial debt, the Company has followed the guidelines established in IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.

IFRS 9 provides that in the event of an exchange between an existing borrower and lender of debt instruments with substantially different terms, the transaction must be accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the consequent recognition of a new financial liability. The difference between the carrying amount of the extinguished financial liability and any amount paid as consideration, which will include any assigned assets other than cash or assumed liability, must be recognized as profit or loss for the fiscal year. The Company believes that the terms of the reorganization debt to be exchanged are substantially different from those of the new notes and has consequently recorded the exchange of debt in accordance with the above guidelines. Also, pursuant to IFRS 9, the new notes have been initially recognized at fair value, net of any incurred transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at amortized cost.

For purposes of initial recognition, the fair value of the new debt issued has been estimated on the basis of discounted cash flows, absent any prices quoted in an active market which may be significant for the amount issued.

5. KEY ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGMENTS

The preparation of consolidated financial statements as of a specified date requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of such date, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the year. The Direction of the Company makes estimates in order to be able to calculate at a specified time, for instance, the allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciation, recoverable value of assets, income tax charges and provision for contingencies. Actual future income may differ from the estimates and judgments made as of the date of preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

For the preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the key judgments made by the Company when applying its accounting policies and the sources of information used for the respective estimates are consistent with those that were applied in the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2012, which are detailed in Note 3 of Annex I to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013, which contains information as of December 31, 2012.

6. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The business of the Company exposes the Company to various financial risks: market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. No significant changes have occurred during the nine-month period ended on September 30, 2013 in relation to financial risk factors and management policies with respect thereto. They are detailed in Note 4 of Annex I to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013, which contains information as of December 31, 2012.

In compliance with the arrangement made with creditors under the reorganization proceedings described in Note 1.1 of Annex I to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013, which contain information as of December 31, 2012, on January 11, 2013 MetroGAS proceeded to exchange any existing notes held by financial creditors and any allowed or provisionally admitted claims held by non-financial creditors, for the New Notes. The issuance of new notes was approved by a decision of the Issuer Department of the CNV dated December 26, 2012, under the Global Notes Program of MetroGAS, for a nominal value of up to U$S 600 million.

The Company issued the following notes to be delivered in exchange for existing notes:

· Series A-L for an amount of U$S 163,003,452

· Series B-L for an amount of U$S 122,000,000,

and in exchange for the Company’s non-financial debt:

· Series A-U for an amount of U$S 16,518,450

· Series B-U for an amount of U$S 13,031,550.

Also, on the same date MetroGAS exercised the power contemplated in the petition for reorganization proceedings filed by it and officially approved by the court, in order to capitalize the interest accrued on Class A Notes from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2012, and pay in cash any interest accrued as from January 1, 2013 to the date of issuance.

As from the date of issue of the new notes, all obligations of the Company under the Existing Notes and Non-Financial Debt were terminated, and any rights, interest and benefits stipulated therein were voided and canceled. Consequently, the Existing Notes and Non-Financial Debt were extinguished and have ceased to be obligations enforceable against the Company.

Exchange under the debt restructuring was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt pursuant to the guidelines established in IFRS 9, as explained in Note 4.

The table below contains a detail of income before taxes incurred upon the restructuring of reorganization debt:

	For the nine months period ended
		09.30.13
Derecognition of the reorganization liability corresponding to verified and declared acceptable creditors		1,422,585
Cash payments of accrued interest between the 1/1/13 and 1/11/13		(1,866	)

Withdrawal of prescribed liabilities		(3,363	)
Debt restructuring expenses		(12,890	)
Debt restructuring income before taxes		757,470

(1) Includes Ps. 134,335 thousand of capitalized interest on Series A notes.

Principal under the new Class A Notes shall be repaid in full at maturity on December 31, 2018, in one payment. The New Notes shall bear interest at a nominal annual interest rate of 8.875%. Class B New Notes due 2018 shall bear interest solely upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event before the Deadline, and in the absence of any Triggering Event, Class B New Notes shall be automatically canceled and no debt shall be owed by the Company thereunder. Interest shall be paid on a semi-annual basis in arrears on June 30 and December 31 each year, although MetroGAS may elect to capitalize 100% of any interest accrued as from the date of issuance to June 30, 2013, and 50% of any interest accrued as from July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014.

Under the terms and conditions for the issue of New Negotiable Obligations, the Company and its subsidiaries shall comply with a series of restrictions which, among others, and in general terms, are those listed below. A detailed description of them, as well as their implementation details and specifications, have been included in the corresponding Prospect.

· Incur or guarantee any debt;

· Make any restricted payments, including any payment of dividends;

· Effect any sale of assets;

· Make investments of any kind;

· Carry out sale and leaseback transactions;

· Carry out transactions with related companies;

· Create or assume any liens;

· Make any mergers or consolidations; and

· Make any sale or lease all or substantially all their respective assets.

Also, the conditions of issuance include a mandatory Redemption provision with Excess cash.

Excess cash mean, for any calculation period of excess cash, the higher amount between the sum resulting from the calculation that starts at EBITDA, is adjusted according to the relevant terms of issue, mainly with the items that affect Company funds which are not part of EBITDA, and the balance of cash funds which, at the close of operations of the last day of such period of calculation of excess cash, are above U$S 10 million.

The above mentioned calculation period is six months, starting on April 1 or October 1 and ending on March 31 or September 30.

Available excess cash are the excess cash for the relevant calculation period minus the cash deficit at the close of operations of the last day of the period, while net available excess cash result from the available excess cash minus net capitalized interest.

The Company shall use the available excess cash to redeem pro rata any Class A Notes, and at any time after the occurrence of a Triggering Event, any outstanding Class B Notes by means of a prepayment of Notes, provided that the Company has not allocated such available amount of net excess cash to make any purchases in the market. Remaining funds after the above mentioned redemptions shall be referred to as net available excess cash.

The Company made the corresponding calculation for the first period finished on March 31, 2013, from which no excess cash resulted.

Furthermore, the Board also decided to issue New Negotiable Obligations for the new unsecured creditors, as long as their credits have been verified by a ruling in the Reorganization Proceedings.

On July 25, 2013, MetroGAS issued:

· Negotiable Obligations of Late Verification:

ü Series A-U: U$S 5,087,459

Note 2 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and Note 1 to the Annex I to the unaudited condensed consolidate interim financial statements as of June 30, 2013 include a detailed description of the economic and regulatory context and of the impact of Emergency Law and regulations thereunder on the Company.

These circumstances have been taken into account by the Management of the Company when making any significant accounting estimates included in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, which include estimates for the recoverable value of non-current assets. For this purpose, the Company prepares from time to time an economic and financial forecast on the basis of alternative scenarios based on macroeconomic, financial, market and regulatory assumptions. See Note 3 of Annex I to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013, which includes information as of December 31, 2012.

General

Company’s sales have been highly influenced by weather conditions prevailing in Argentina. Natural gas demand, and consequently sales, are considerably higher during winter months (from May to September) due to the gas volumes sold and the rates mix affecting sales revenues and gross margin.

On account of regulatory changes (see Note 1.3.3 to Annex I to the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2013), on April 20, 2005 the Board of Directors of MetroGAS resolved to create MetroENERGÍA, a corporation whose equity is owned 95% by MetroGAS and whose corporate purpose is to engage, on its own account and on behalf of or in association with third parties, in the sale and purchase and/or transportation of natural gas.

In the framework of the process of renegotiation of its license, a Temporary Agreement was signed with UNIREN on October 1, 2008, which established a Transitional Tariff Regime applicable as from September 1, 2008, including a realignment of prices and rates contemplating changes in gas and gas transportation and distribution prices. This agreement was ratified by a Shareholders’ Meeting of MetroGAS held on October 14, 2008 and approved by the National Executive Power on March 26, 2009 by Executive Decree No. 234 (Official Gazette 14/04/2009). This Temporary Agreement established a Transitional Tariff Regime applicable as from September 1, 2008, including a realignment of prices and rates contemplating changes in gas and gas transportation and distribution prices. The amounts derived from the increase effectively received as a result of the realignment of the distribution rate must be deposited by the Company into a specific fund (trust fund) that will be used for the performance of infrastructure works within the License area. The Temporary Agreement was not implemented, as the relevant tariffs were not issued.

During 2012 letters were sent to ENARGAS, UNIREN and the Ministry of Federal Planning, Public Investment and Services, emphasizing the Company’s imperative need to reach a final agreement so as to be able to successfully complete the reorganization proceedings commenced in June 2010.

METROGAS S.A. INFORMATIVE SUMMARY OF ACTIVITY RESOLUTION No. 368/01 OF THE ARGENTINE SECURITIES COMMISSION (“CNV”)

In this context, on December 29, 2011, MetroGAS filed a complaint that was intended to toll the statute of limitations in respect of damages resulting from the collapse of the economic and financial structure contemplated in the gas distribution License and also in connection with a prior administrative claim filed for the same purpose.

On November 21, 2012, the Company, just as all other gas Distributors, with one exception, signed a Memorandum (“Memorandum”) with ENARGAS. Pursuant to ENARGAS ENRG/SD/I 13,352 letter, received on November 29, 2012, such Memorandum is fully effective. Under this Memorandum, it was agreed that a fixed amount per invoice would be established, a distinction being made between customer categories. The amounts received by Distributors for this concept will be deposited in a trust fund created to such an effect, and used to perform works in relation to infrastructure, connection, power upgrades, expansion and/or technological updating of gas network distribution systems, safety, service reliability and network integrity, and also for maintenance and any other related expenses necessary to provide the gas distribution public service, up to the limit of the amounts effectively available to be applied within the service provision area. On the other hand, gas distributors shall be required to submit to the approval of an Execution Committee to be created under the trust an Investment Plan of Consolidation and Expansion stated in physical and financial terms, the guidelines of which will be determined pursuant to the trust agreement to be subscribed between the Company and Nación Fideicomisos S.A.

The amounts assigned to Gas License Holders will be received on account of any rate adjustments contemplated in the License renegotiation agreements subscribed in due time. In the specific case of MetroGAS, this is the Temporary Agreement approved by Executive Decree No. 234/09. The amounts received by MetroGAS as a result of the implementation of these new fixed amounts would be approximately Ps. 190 million annually.

On November 29, 2012 ENARGAS Resolution No. 2,407/12 was published in the Official Gazette. The recitals of such Resolution specify that MPFIPyS Resolution No. 2,000/05 has been complied with, and consequently Distributors are authorized by ENARGAS to charge the above mentioned amount, which shall be included in the relevant bills by a method to be established by the Regulatory Authority.

The Company has been billing this new tariff charge as from December 4, 2012.

On account of the adverse circumstances affecting MetroGAS, on June 17, 2010 the Board of Directors of MetroGAS S.A. filed a petition for Reorganization Proceedings (as described in Note 2.2 to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements and Note 1.1 of the Annex to the unaudited condensed consolidate interim financial statements as of June 30, 2013). In compliance with the arrangement made with creditors thereunder, on January 11, 2013, MetroGAS issued new notes that were given to financial creditors and to non-financial creditors holding allowed and provisionally admitted claims in exchange for their claims, as detailed in Note 16.

On that same date, MetroGAS received notice of ENARGAS Resolution No. I-I.260, pursuant to which a receiver was appointed for the Company (as described also in Note 1.2 to the Annex attached hereto).

MetroGAS intervention and the appointment of Antonio Gomez have been extended for 120 running day periods under the same terms and conditions as the original one, the last of which was established by Resolution ENARGAS No. 2,448/13 dated February 1, 2013.

METROGAS S.A. INFORMATIVE SUMMARY OF ACTIVITY RESOLUTION No. 368/01 OF THE ARGENTINE SECURITIES COMMISSION (“CNV”)

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

(Review of interim financial statements)

To the President and Directors of

METROGAS SOCIEDAD ANÓNIMA

Gregorio Aráoz de Lamadrid 1360

Buenos Aires City

1. Identification of the financial statements subject to review

We have reviewed the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements of METROGAS SOCIEDAD ANÓNIMA (an Argentine corporation, hereinafter mentioned “MetroGAS S.A.” or the “Company”) which comprise the interim consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the nine-month period then ended and the supplemental information included in their Notes 1 to 28 (Notes 3 and 4 describe the main accounting policies used in the preparation of the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements).

The figures and other information as of December 31, 2012 and as of January 1, 2012 (the latter being the date of transition to the International Financial Reporting Standards) and for the nine-month period ended on September 30, 2012, before giving effect to the adjustments and reclassifications made to implement International Financial Reporting Standards as described in Note 3 to the accompanying interim consolidated statements were audited or reviewed by other auditors, as appropriate, who issued their respective audit reports and limited review report based on the standards established by Technical Resolution N° 7 issued by the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils in Economic Sciences (“FACPCE”) including qualifications in relation to certain uncertainties as described in section 4 of this report, on March 7, 2013, March 7, 2012 and November 7, 2012, respectively. The figures and other information corresponding to the fiscal year 2012 and its interim periods are an integral part of the financial statements mentioned in the previous paragraph and are intended to be read only in relation to the figures and information of the current interim period.

The Company’s Board of Directors is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, adopted by the FACPCE as accounting standards, which were incorporated by the Argentine Securities Commission (“CNV”), as they were approved by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), and, therefore, is responsible for the preparation and presentation of the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements, in accordance with the International Accounting Standard 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”. Our responsibility is to issue a review report on the interim consolidated financial statements identified in the first paragraph of this section, based on the review carried out pursuant to the scope of work outlined in section 2.

2. Scope of our work

We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Technical Resolution N° 33 issued by the FACPCE, which adopted the International Standard on Review Engagements issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board (“IAASB”), that are applicable to reviews on interim financial information. These standards determine a scope which is substantially less than the application of all the auditing procedures necessary to be able to express an audit opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The review is mainly limited to making inquiries to the Company’s personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data and, as a consequence, providing a lesser degree of assurance than an audit. We did not audit and consequently, we do not express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial position as of September 30, 2013, or comprehensive income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the nine-month period then ended.

3. Review report

Based on our review, performed with the scope described in section 2 of this report, we are in a position to report that nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that a material modification should be made to the interim consolidated financial statements of MetroGAS S.A. identified in the first paragraph of the section 1 of this report for them to be in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34.

4. Additional explanatory paragraphs

a) The changes in the economic conditions of the country and the amendments introduced to the License with which the Company operates, mentioned in Note 2 to the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements, have affected the economic and financial position of the Company, affected by the suspension of the original regime of tariff adjustment and the increase in the operating costs to maintain the quality of services. The Company´s Board of Directors is under a renegotiation process of certain terms of the License, situation that has not been resolved to the date of issuance of this report. From the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded operating losses for significant amounts and, as of September 30, 2013, accumulated significant negative retained earnings for an amount of $727,828 (in thousands) and has negative working capital for an amount of $94,424 (in thousands). The Company´s Board of Directors estimates that, if the conditions as of the date of issuance of these financial statements continue, the economic and financial position will continue to deteriorate. This situation generates uncertainty about the future development of MetroGAS S.A.´s business and its ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has prepared the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements using accounting standards applicable to a going concern. Therefore, such financial statements do not include the effect of potential adjustments and reclassifications, if any, that may be required if the situation described was not resolved in favor of the business continuity and if the Company was forced to realize assets and settle its liabilities, including contingent liabilities, in conditions other than the normal course of business.

b) Additionally, as mentioned in more detail in Note 4 to the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements, which refers to the Annex I to the consolidated financial statements of MetroGAS S.A. as of June 30, 2013, the Company has prepared projections with the aim of determining the recoverable value of its non-current assets, based on assumptions made related to the expected final outcome of the renegotiation process mentioned in the paragraph above. The cash flows and actual future results may differ from the estimates and assessments made by the Management at the date of preparation of these financial statements. In this regard, we are not in a position to estimate whether the assumptions used by the Management to prepare its projections will materialize in the future and, therefore, if the recoverable values of the non-current assets will exceed the respective net book values.

c) As mentioned in Note 3 to the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements, these financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles included in Technical Resolution N° 26 of the FACPCE applicable to the preparation of consolidated financial statements, this being the first fiscal year of application of the International Financial Reporting Standards for the Company. The effects of changes caused by the application of these new accounting standards are presented in the mentioned note to the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements. The items and figures included in the reconciliations presented in such note may vary as a result of changes in the International Financial Reporting Standards finally applied, and may only be deemed final upon preparation of the annual financial statements corresponding to the end of the current fiscal year.

5. English translation of statutory financial statements
