Re:        Relevant

fact                      

Dear Sirs:

The purpose of this letter is to comply with the requirements of Article 23 of Chapter VI of the ByMA Listing Regulations.

We inform you that YPF S.A. and the main refining companies in Argentina have entered into an agreement with the Federal Government pursuant to which they have assumed the commitment not to increase their fuel prices within the local market during the months of May and June.

The agreement seeks to soften the impact on fuel prices of the recent increases in the exchange rate and oil prices, and to contribute to price stabilization in the local economy in the short term, in favor of the general economic interest.

Price differences which had accrued through this date, and those which may further accrue during this two-month period, will be gradually transferred to prices during the second half of the year. In case it is not possible to fully compensate for such differences due to market circumstances, the Federal Government assumed the commitment to agree upon mechanisms which would allow refining companies to recover such differences before the end of the year 2018.

Yours faithfully,

Diego Celaá

Market Relations Officer

YPF S.A.
