(ISIN Nos.: US886516AC70 and USP91528AA03; CUSIP Nos.: 886516AC7 and P91528AA0)

TIERRA DEL FUEGO, Argentina, Nov. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The Province of Tierra del Fuego (the "Province") today announced that as of 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on November 27, 2023, 68.32% of holders of Outstanding (as defined below) Notes had validly delivered consents pursuant to the Consent Solicitation. In order to provide Eligible Holders who have not yet participated with additional time to consider and participate in the Consent Solicitation, the Province has extended the Expiration Time of its Consent Solicitations from Eligible Holders of Notes made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Province's most recently amended and restated consent solicitation statement dated November 13, 2023 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the "Consent Solicitation Statement") from 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on November 27, 2023, to the earlier of (i) 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on December 11, 2023, and (ii) such date and time as notified by the Province in its sole discretion that valid Consents from Holders of 75% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes (the "Requisite Consents") have been validly delivered and accepted pursuant to the terms of the Consent Solicitation Statement, and the other conditions described in the Consent Solicitation Statement have been satisfied or, where possible, waived, unless further extended or earlier terminated by the Province.  Upon achieving the Requisite Consents, the Province will provide notice to holders that the Expiration Time shall occur on the immediately following Business Day thereafter. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Consent Solicitation Statement.

Consequently, all Eligible Holders who validly deliver their consent on or prior to the Expiration Time will be eligible to receive a portion of a cash payment in a fixed aggregate amount of US$6,000,000 (the "Consent Consideration"), provided that the terms and conditions set forth in the Consent Solicitation Statement have been satisfied or, where possible, waived.

Assuming that the Province, among other things, does not further extend the Expiration Time or terminate the Consent Solicitations early, the Supplemental Indenture giving effect to the Proposed Amendments will be signed on or about the Settlement Date, and will become effective after satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Consent Solicitation Statement, including payment of the Consent Consideration.

Eligible Holders who delivered their Consents to the Consent Solicitations prior to the date of this announcement and do not revoke such Consents in the limited circumstances set forth below prior to Expiration Time shall be considered to have accepted the terms and conditions of the Consent Solicitations. Consents once given may not be revoked, except in limited circumstances where we make a material change (adverse to the interests of Eligible Holders) to, or waive a material condition of, this Consent Solicitation, or otherwise are required by law to do so, in each case as determined by us in our sole discretion. Such revocation will be permitted for a period of time that we believe, in our sole discretion, adequate to give Eligible Holders an adequate amount of time to consider such changes and determine whether to deliver or revoke their Consents.

The Province has engaged BCP Securities, Inc. and Puente Servicios de Inversión S.A. to act as international consent solicitation agents and Puente Hnos. S.A. as local consent solicitation agent in Argentina (together with BCP Securities, Inc. and Puente Servicios de Inversión S.A., the "Consent  Solicitation Agents"), Contexto Investments as Financial Advisor (the "Financial Advisor") and Morrow Sodali International LLC is acting as the information and tabulation agent (the "Information and Tabulation Agent").
