Re.: Relevant Event
Please be advised
that on the date hereof BANCO MACRO S.A. has been given notice of a class action entitled “Asociación por la Defensa
de Usuarios y Consumidores – ADUC- vs Macro Fondos Sociedad Gerente de Fondos Comunes de Inversión S.A. et al. on
Ordinary Proceedings” (Court File # 37550/2015).
Plaintiff alleges
that both Macro Fondos S.A. –as Management Agent- and Banco Macro S.A. –as Custodian- are liable to the financial consumers
who are quotaholders in the Funds managed by the former of the above mentioned financial entities, for the reduction in value that
such quotas might suffer due to the application of Resolution 646/2015 issued by the CNV, that states that certain foreign currency
nominated assets must be valued at the seller exchange rate published by Banco de la Nación Argentina and not according
to the provisions of the relevant Fund Management Rules, approved in due time by the CNV itself.
This legal action
seeks the partial restitution of the amounts charged as fees prior to the effective date of such Resolution and the total value
recomposition of the quotas of all allegedly affected financial consumers.
The lawsuit is pending
before the National Court of First Instance in Commercial Matters No. 3, Clerk’s Office No. 6 (Juzgado Nacional de Primera
Instancia en lo Comercial Nro. 3, Secretaría Nro. 6).
Banco Macro S.A. considers
there is a low probability that it gets an unfavorable decision in this dispute, and even if that is the case, it shall not have
a significant impact in its financial position.
Sincerely.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, the Registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereto duly authorized.
