Board proposals regarding the assorted
items on the Agenda for the General Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting called for April 7, 2026.
The President informs that article 70 of the
Argentine Capital Markets Law No. 26.831 establishes that the Board of Directors must put forward to the Shareholders their proposals
regarding the items to be dealt with at the General Ordinary and Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting. Consequently:
| 1. | Regarding the first item of the agenda, namely, “Appointment of shareholders to approve and sign
the Meeting minutes,” the Board of Directors, by unanimous vote and pursuant to article 73 of the Argentine Corporation Law
No. 19.550, proposed that the Shareholders’ Meeting appoint the representatives of JP Morgan and the Sustainability Guaranty Fund
under the charge of the Social Security Office (Administración Nacional de la Seguridad Social - ANSES) to sign the minutes. |
| 2. | Regarding the second item on the agenda, namely, “Consideration of the Company’s Balance
Sheet, Statement of Comprehensive Income, Statement of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity, Statement of Cash Flows, Notes, Independent
Auditor’s Report, Supervisory Committee’s Report, Annual Report and Report on Compliance with the Corporate Governance Code,
Management’s Discussion and Analysis required by the Regulations of the Argentine Securities Commission and the additional information
required by the applicable rules, all for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025,” it is informed that the Board of Directors
considered and approved the Financial Statements and supplementary documents and, as a consequence, proposes the approval of the documents
mentioned above. |
| 3. | Regarding the third item on the agenda, namely, “Consideration of the results for the
year and allocation thereof (upon dealing with this item, the Meeting will qualify as an Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting in
accordance with Article 70 of the Argentine Corporations Law No 19.550),” it was informed that the fiscal year recorded a profit
of Ps. 495,789 million which, in addition to the currency exchange differences allocated to the unallocated results amounting Ps. 15,742
million, the retained earnings amounted to a gain of Ps. 511,531 million as of December 31, 2025. Consequently, the Board unanimously
decided to propose to the shareholders’ meeting that the sum of Ps. 511,531 million be allocated to set up a voluntary reserve. |
Likewise, it is informed that the Company does
not expect to declare dividends. Thus, the Company shall retain all the funds to allocate them to and/or have them available for:
| i. | Driving our businesses’ operation and expansion through key investments, both ordinary and extraordinary.
This includes continued oil and gas exploration and production in Vaca Muerta, particularly in Rincón de Aranda, as well as equity
commitments in the projects we are part of; |
| ii. | Maximizing investment opportunities that can foster significant growth, business expansion and generation
of strategic synergies; |
| iii. | Taking the necessary measures to safeguard the Company shareholders’ interests and investment value
given the current market volatility scenario. |
All of this is in line with the Company’s
Dividend Policy.
| 4. | Regarding the fourth item on the agenda, namely, “Consideration of the Directors and Supervisory
Committee’s performance for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.” the Board of Directors abstained from making any
proposal to avoid a potential conflict of interests concerning the approval of the performance of their duties. As for the performance
of duties of the Supervisory Committee, the Board of Directors unanimously proposed that the Shareholders’ Meeting approve it. |
| 5. | Regarding the fifth item on the agenda, namely, “Consideration of the Director’s fees for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, within the 5% legal limit in relation to profits in accordance with Article 261 of Argentine
Law No. 19,550 and the regulations of the Argentine Comisión Nacional de Valores and the Supervisory Committee’s fees for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025”, it is informed that the Shareholders’ Meeting held on April 7, 2025, authorized
the payment of advance fees to the directors and the members of the Supervisor Committee until the date of the Shareholders’ Meeting
that shall deal with the financial statements as of December 31, 2025. |
In view of the aforementioned, the
Board of Directors unanimously proposed that the Shareholders’ Meeting: (i) approve the fees payable to the Board of Directors in
the amount of Ps. 23,903,619,060.12 for the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2025; (ii) approve the fees payable to the Supervisory Committee
in the amount of Ps. 94,472,856 for the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2025; and (iii) authorize for the advance payment of fees to
members of the Board of Directors and the de Supervisory Committee until the date of the Shareholders’ Meeting that shall consider
the financial statements as of December 31, 2026.
Regarding the proposed fees for the
Board of Directors for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the following details are provided:
(i) Honorariums: the amount
paid during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, totals Ps. 269,606,059, which was paid as advances pursuant to the approval of the
Ordinary and Extraordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting held on April 7, 2025.
(ii) Fees for technical-administrative
functions include:
a. Salary, along with all
associated benefits and the Stock Compensation Plan approved by the Board of Directors on February 8, 2017, exclusively for those
directors who are beneficiaries of such plan, for a
total amount of $ 6,318,125,105.12, which has already been paid; and
b. The Executive Compensation Plan
approved by the Board of Directors on June 2, 2017, is to be paid in 2026 in the amount of Ps. 17,315,887,896.
The Stock Compensation Plan and the
Executive Compensation Plan aim to align the interests of key personnel and senior executives, respectively, with value creation for the
Company and shareholders.
The Executive Compensation Plan is
calculated as a percentage of the Company’s market value appreciation, considering the average market value achieved by the Company
during the last 30 trading days of each fiscal year. In this way, the incentive is only earned to the extent that the shareholders of
the Company have seen an increase in the value of their shares.
The annual payment is capped at 1.5%
of the EBITDA for the year, which prevents the amount payable by the Company from becoming overly burdensome in years when the Company’s
market capitalization increases significantly, but the Company’s profits do not grow at the same magnitude. The amount not paid
to the Executives due to exceeding the aforementioned EBITDA cap will remain as a credit in favor of the beneficiaries, which will be
paid in subsequent fiscal years, always considering the mentioned EBITDA cap.
The Board of Directors considers that
the fees assigned to its members during the fiscal year are appropriate and reasonable, considering market remuneration at the local level,
the particular circumstances of the Company, the responsibilities assumed by the individuals, the time dedicated to their roles, their
competence, and professional reputation; and
All of the above has been analyzed
and evaluated by the Company’s Remuneration Committee, with no objections raised by such Committee regarding the proposed amount.
| 6. | Regarding the sixth item on the agenda namely, “Consideration of fees payable to the Independent
Auditor,” the Board of Directors proposed, by unanimous vote, that the Shareholders’ Meeting approve fees payable to the
certifying accountant for work performed in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, for Ps. 1,560,058,558, including fees for the SOX
404 certification, required by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. |
| 7. | Regarding the seventh item on the agenda, namely, “Appointment of Regular and Alternate Directors,”
first of all, the Board of Directors would like to highlight that (i) on December 31, 2025, the mandates of the regular directors Gustavo
Mariani, Ricardo Alejandro Torres and Silvana Wasersztrom, and the alternate directors María Agustina Montes and Horacio Jorge
Tomás Turri, expired; it is necessary to renew the expired positions and replace the resigning director. |
In this regard, the Board of Directors
proposed, by unanimous vote, that the Shareholders’ Meeting approve:
(i) the re-election of Messrs. Gustavo
Mariani and Ricardo Alejandro Torres as regular directors and Mrs. María Agustina Montes and Mr. Horacio Jorge Tomás Turri
as alternate directors, maintaining the non-independent status;
(ii) the appointment of Mr. Nicolás
Agustin as independent regular director in replacement of Mrs. Silvana Wasersztrom; and
(iii) these appointments have a duration
of 3 years until December 31, 2028.
Furthermore, the Board expresses that,
upon approval of the proposed appointments, the Company will maintain a Board where the majority of all its members are women, achieving
unprecedented gender equality in the securities market of the Argentine Republic. With this, Pampa will be at the forefront of implementing
various gender policies promoted by multiple government agencies of the Argentine Republic, including the CNV, as well as the United Nations
Sustainable Development Agenda, with gender equality being one of its objectives. Additionally, the Board continues to be composed of
the same number of independent members (50%), who, with their diverse business perspectives based on their different professions, add
significant value to Pampa, particularly through their interactions with the executive directors, who maintain continuous contact with
the various areas of the Company and its daily operations. This convergence provides the Board with a comprehensive view of the business
and constant updates on relevant matters.
Mr. Gabriel Spizgiel has the floor,
in his capacity as member of the Company’s Nominations Committee, and informs that such committee has evaluated the candidates to
be proposed to the Shareholders’ Meeting and, considering the independence, diversity, age, skills, experience, knowledge of the
company business and industry factors, the referred Committee had no objections to such candidates. Likewise, Pampa will upload a brief
biographical description of the proposed directors on its institutional website
| 8. | Regarding the eight item on the agenda, namely, “Appointment of Regular Independent Auditor and
Alternate Independent Auditor who shall render an opinion on the financial statements for the fiscal year started on January 1, 2026,”
the Board of Directors proposed, by unanimous vote, that the Shareholders’ Meeting appoint Price Waterhouse & Co. S.R.L., member
of PriceWaterhouseCoopers, appointing Mr. Juan Manuel Gallego Tinto as certifying accountant, and Mr. Marcelo de Nicola as alternate certifying
accountants for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2026. |
| 9. | Regarding the ninth item on the agenda, namely, “Determination of fees payable to the
Regular Independent Auditor and Alternate Independent Auditor who shall render an opinion on the financial statements for the fiscal
year commenced on January 1, 2026”, the Board of Directors proposed, by unanimous vote, that the Shareholders’
Meeting postpone the resolution regarding the approval
of fees payable to the independent auditor for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026, until the next annual Shareholders’ Meetings. |
| 10. | Regarding the tenth item on the agenda, namely, “Consideration of allocation of a budgetary item
for the operation of the Audit Committee,” the Board of Directors proposed, by unanimous vote, to the Shareholders’ Meeting
pursuant to article 110 of Capital Markets Law that the Audit Committee’s budget for the fiscal year 2026 amounts to Ps. 27,300,000. |
| 11. | Regarding the eleventh item on the agenda, namely “Consideration of the extension of the term
