In this respect, Mrs. ESTOL expressed that at a previous meeting convened by the Controller Area
Manager, a presentation had been made of the main components of the financial statements under
discussion, their comparison with previous periods and the evolution of the most significant indicators.
The Directors agreed that as they had received at such meeting a detailed explanation of all the
documentation and as there were no doubts or explanations to make, they considered that a new
presentation was unnecessary. Mrs. ESTOL underscored that the material events occurred during the
aforementioned period had been duly recorded in the Information Summary supplementing the
Financial Statements. Further, she stated that the Financial Statements under consideration had been
reviewed by the Independent Auditor and that the relevant Supervisory Committee’s report in respect
thereof was also available. Thereafter, the Chairwoman proposed to omit reading the Financial
Statements and supplementary information, as copies of such information were in the possession of
Directors. The Chairwoman ended her motion by proposing the approval of the Financial Statements
and supplementary information under consideration, as well as the Information Summary for the first
quarter of this year. Upon the motion raised by the Chairwoman being submitted to vote, the Board of
Directors unanimously resolved: 1) To approve the Financial Statements of Banco Hipotecario S.A.
