(the "Company") announced the results of its previously announced offer (the "Exchange Offers") to repurchase and exchange any and all of its outstanding 6.875% Senior Secured Guaranteed Series 2015 Notes Due 2032 issued on May 7, 2015 (CUSIP: 00102JAA3/ E0351QAA0; ISIN: US00102JAA34/ USE0351QAA07) (the "Series 2015 Notes") and its outstanding 6.875% Cash/7.875% PIK Senior Secured Guaranteed Series 2020 Notes due 2032 issued on May 26, 2020 (CUSIP: 00102JAB1/ E0351QAB8; ISIN: US00102JAB17/ USE0351QAB89) (the "Series 2020 Notes" and, together with the Series 2015 Notes, the "Existing Notes") for newly issued 6.875% Senior Secured Guaranteed Notes due 2034 (the "New Notes" and, together with the Existing Notes, the "Notes"). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Exchange Offer Memorandum (as defined below).

As of 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on October 22, 2021, (i) US$4,800,000 aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Series 2015 Notes, representing approximately 41.41% of the total outstanding principal amount of the Series 2015 Notes, and (ii) US$161,672,186 aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Series 2020 Notes, representing approximately 82.68% of the total outstanding principal amount of the Series 2020 Notes, had been validly tendered for exchange and not validly withdrawn, as confirmed by the Information Agent for the Exchange Offer.

Since tenders for more than 50% of the aggregate principal amount of Existing Notes have been received and withdrawal rights have expired, the Company, Cerealsur and the Trustee under the Existing Notes expect to execute and deliver a supplemental indenture which will give effect to the Concession Agreement Amendments (the "Supplemental Indenture"). Such Supplemental Indenture will be immediately effective upon execution and operative regardless of the consummation of the Exchange Offers, the issuance of the New Notes, the execution of the Second A&R Indenture, or the termination or withdrawal of the Solicitations, in which case no consideration will be paid. In addition, since the Company has received the consent of Holders that, in the aggregate, hold a principal amount of Existing Notes sufficient to satisfy the Minimum Exchange Amount Condition (as defined below), the Issuer, Cerealsur and the Trustee may, any time before the Expiration Deadline (as defined below), execute and deliver the Second A&R Indenture which will give effect to all Proposed Amendments, and that will be effective upon execution but will only become operative upon consummation of the Exchange Offers on the Settlement Date (as defined below) and the consummation of the New Money Offering on the New Money Settlement Date.

The obligation of the Company to accept tendered Existing Notes and delivered consents pursuant to the Exchange Offers and the Solicitations, respectively, is subject to certain conditions, which include among others, (i) that at least 75% of the Outstanding Principal Amount of the Existing Notes is validly tendered for exchange and not withdrawn (the "Minimum Exchange Amount Condition"), (ii) the consummation of the New Money Offering on the Settlement Date, and (iii) the execution of the Amended Concession Agreement. Following the execution of the Supplemental Indenture, the Company expects to execute the Amended Concession Agreement with the Uruguayan Ministry of Defense on or before the Settlement Date (as defined below). The Company reserves the right, subject to applicable law, to waive any and all conditions to the Exchange Offer, other than the execution of the Amended Concession Agreement which cannot be waived.
