LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

Dear Shareholders,

In the course of fiscal year 2010, the global economy started to exhibit signs of recovery in the wake of the financial crisis unleashed towards the end of 2008 and early 2009. Although there is no certainty as to the global extent of recovery, above all in the developed economies, the emerging countries that demand raw materials have evidenced clear signs of recovery in their levels of activity. Consequently, the prices of agricultural commodities have remained firm whilst simultaneously lagging behind price increases in other products such as gold or oil if we take as a basis the minimums seen approximately two years ago in the midst of the global financial crisis.

Thus, prospects in agricultural production are quite encouraging if we also consider the long-term forecasts released by the US Department of Agriculture (“USDA”) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (“FAO”): the USDA has maintained its predictions of increased demand for agricultural commodities over the next ten years which would require approximately 45 million of hectares to go into production in a basis case. As regards the FAO and its predictions concerning the next 40 years, this organization considers that a 50% increase in grains output, as well as a two-fold increase in beef production will be required to provide food for a planet inhabited by 9 billion people towards 2050. This outlook will most certainly spur agricultural and cattle raising production as well as the development of agricultural land in the long-term. Therefore, we will maintain the direction chosen for our strategy.

On top of that, if we consider that the investment in real estate and in agricultural land has historically functioned as a shelter against inflation in times of monetary expansion, the appreciation prospects of these assets become even more encouraging, given the volume of financial resources that the main countries in the world have injected in the markets to navigate out of the global financial crisis.

As regards South America, we understand that this region has the potential for producing and exporting the food required to meet the increase in global demand in the coming years by reason of its abundant resources, such as soil, water and weather, well in excess of its own consumption needs. Argentina offers high output and low production costs and it is in a position to produce approximately 7 times the quantity of grains and oilseed demanded by its domestic market whereas Brazil boasts wide land spans that can be put to sustainable production at a lower cost per additional hectare.

It is for these reasons that we have sought to devote our unique expertise to the consolidation of an inimitable regional portfolio with major development and value enhancement potential, by being ahead in the cycle of land appreciation both in Argentina and in South America. In the region, both Cresud and its related companies have a strong presence in Brazil, Paraguay. As a part of our regional expansion strategy, in April we agreed to increase our share in our related company BrasilAgro through the acquisition of the ownership interest held by Tarpon Investimentos. BrasilAgro can greatly benefit from appealing prospects concerning the acquisition, development and operation of farms in Brazil and has extended the surface area devoted to agricultural operations at an average rate of 45% per annum ever since it started operations in 2006, exceeding the 46 thousand hectares planted in the most recent season. When considered together, Cresud and BrasilAgro’s operations have seen their planted area expand by more than 250% in the past 4 years.

Agricultural activities in Argentina have once again manifested their potential. The sector’s total harvest in Argentina, though not at record highs, has recovered output levels in excess of 90 million tons after the extreme drought of the 2008/2009 season. Thanks to the good weather prevailing in the 2009/10 season, agricultural yields and agribusiness margins have improved; Cresud planted 101 thousand hectares in which we have produced 322 tons of grains, surpassing the 2008/09 season’s output over a similar number of hectares by 85 thousand tons.

Cresud’s cattle raising activities benefited from an increase in the local price of beef cattle during fiscal year 2010 in the region of 95%, measured on the basis of the performance shown by Mercado de Liniers’ Steer Index. This has been due to an overall shrinkage in cattle supply in the market. Therefore, Argentina’s cattle stock decreased from 60 million head to 50 million head in the past 3 years. Within this context, Cresud has maintained its cattle stocks in excess of 85,000 head until this year, when we sold part of the stock to cash in the price increase reflected in higher holding results. As an offset to this situation that seems to favor cattle farmers, the decrease in supply has adversely affected the value chain by reducing cold-storage plant utilization, which in turn has left several plants struggling to remain operational in view of the poor returns and shortage of raw materials. Our investment in Exportaciones Agroindustriales Argentinas S.A. has not escaped unscathed and we are assessing our alternatives looking forward.

Yields of the farms in development in Argentina have stabilized as a result of technology, management and weather. At Agropecuaria Anta we already have 17,000 hectares in operation. Most of them have been in development for more than two years and have exhibited yields ranging from 2.5 to 3 tons per hectare. We have planted the first 2,800 hectares developed in Paraguay and this year we are planning to incorporate into production a further 3,000 hectares that have been prepared over this fiscal year. We expect the yields of these hectares to stabilize as from the second year of operations, which would raise their appreciation potential as has been our experience in Argentina. In Los Pozos, Salta, we reached the mark of 50,000 hectares devoted to cattle raising activities. Other farms, such as La Suiza in Chaco, or La Esmeralda in Santa Fe, have shown interesting potential for the shift from cattle raising to agricultural land. In the case of La Esmeralda, for instance, 78% of the hectares that have been in production for the past three seasons were used for cattle raising activities whereas in the past fiscal year agricultural activities spanned already 57% of the surface area being operated, with the ultimate goal of occupying 100% of the surface area in La Esmeralda.

According to market sources, farm prices in Argentina have undergone a widespread improvement in the first months of 2010 with the adverse weather conditions of the past year and the economic uncertainty prevailing at the global level having been left behind. Within this improvement context, in the course of the fiscal year we resumed our farm sales and sold one of the farms we had in portfolio, the Tali Sumaj farm, located in the province of Catamarca, for US$ 4.8 million. And subsequent to year-end, we sold the La Juanita farm, devoted to crops and dairy and located in the Province of Buenos Aires for US$ 18 million. The sale prices of these farms were about 4 times larger than their book values.

As regards BrasilAgro, it has seen its planted surface area grow by 38% in the past fiscal year, to 46 thousand hectares. Besides, 17 thousand hectares have been developed and will go into production in the 2010/11 season. In addition, harvesting has started in the sugar cane plantations and a farm that spans 14,358 hectares has been acquired in the northern state of Maranhao, which meant a total increase of hectares in BrasilAgro’s portfolio to 174,840. Aspiring to tap any new opportunities that might arise in terms of acquisitions or developments, BrasilAgro remains liquid and its Board of Directors has approved the launch of a Level I ADR program.

When it comes to our subsidiary IRSA, it has shown significant growth in its consolidated bottom line, which has consolidated in the region of 100%, thanks to the strength of its business lines exposed to consumption and to the robustness of real estate in Argentina. One of this fiscal year’s highlights has been the option acquired by IRSA to purchase the equity stake held in Alto Palermo S.A. by its partner in the shopping center business, Parque Arauco S.A. The acquisition will allow IRSA to consolidate its leading position in this business, raising its exposure to the most complete, sophisticated and dynamic Shopping Center portfolio in the Argentine market. Besides, Alto Palermo S.A. has agreed to sell an 80% stake in Tarshop S.A.’s capital stock to Banco Hipotecario S.A., a transaction that has recently been approved by the Argentine Central Bank’s Superintendent of Financial and Foreign Exchange Institutions.

Given the context of financial volatility experienced in fiscal year 2009 and the price of Cresud shares, distorted if compared to the quality of its assets, we engaged in a share repurchase plan whereby we acquired 5.98% of our outstanding shares at an average price of US$ 7.18 per ADR. In November 2009 Cresud allocated to its shareholders 25 million of its treasury shares, representative of 4.98% of its issued capital stock at that time. In light of the performance exhibited by the price of the share, we can now say that the two measures, both the repurchase and the allocation, have resulted in a direct benefit to our shareholders.

The year 2010 marked Cresud’s fiftieth anniversary as a company listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange. Throughout these years we have deployed a business strategy that is reinforced when new players in the agricultural sector decide to develop and operate land in the region and seek to mirror Cresud’s business portfolios. We are well aware of our priority being to care for the resources with which we work: in this respect, we have implemented cutting-edge technology to better handle inputs, preserve water and protect the soil. We encourage our contractors to keep abreast of the latest trends so that we attain a joint cycle of continuous improvement and we foster improvements in the quality of living of the rural communities where we have a presence by providing them with infrastructure for education and health care. Our overarching objective is to attain long-term sustainability in our businesses.

Our future objectives shall only be attainable with the joint endeavors of our Shareholders, Creditors, Directors, Customers, Suppliers, Employees and the Community at large, who also happen to be playing the leading roles in our current situation. It is to all of them that I wish to extend my gratefulness for their unwavering support and commitment to the organization’s goals.

City of Buenos Aires, September 8, 2010.

Alejandro G. Elsztain

Second Vice-Chairman,

Acting as Chairman

OUR STRATEGY

We seek to maximize our return on assets and overall profitability by (i) identifying, acquiring and exploiting agricultural properties having attractive prospects for agricultural production and/or long-term value appreciation and selectively disposing of properties as appreciation is realized, (ii) optimizing the yields and productivity of our agricultural properties through the implementation of state-of-the-art technologies and agricultural techniques and (iii) preserving the value of our significant long-term investment in the urban real estate sector held through our affiliate IRSA.

Focus on maximizing value of our agricultural real estate assets

We conduct our agricultural activities with a focus on maximizing the value of our real estate assets. We seek to rotate our portfolio of properties over time by purchasing large parcels of land which we believe have a high potential for appreciation and selling them selectively as opportunities arise to realize attractive capital gains. We believe that our ability to realize gains from appreciation of our farmlands is based on the following principles:

•

Acquiring under-utilized properties and enhancing their land use: We seek to purchase under-utilized properties at attractive prices and develop them to achieve more productive uses. We seek to do so by (i) transforming non-productive land into cattle feeding land, (ii) transforming cattle feeding land into land suitable for more productive agricultural uses, (iii) enhancing the value of agricultural lands by changing their use to more profitable agricultural activities; and (iv) reaching to the final stage of the real estate development cycle by transforming rural properties into urban areas as the boundaries of urban development continue to extend into rural areas. To do so, we generally focus on acquisitions of properties outside of highly developed agricultural regions and/or properties whose value we believe is likely to be enhanced by proximity to existing or expected infrastructure.

•

Applying modern technologies to enhance operating yields and property values. We believe that an opportunity exists to improve the productivity and long-term value of inexpensive and/or underdeveloped land by investing in modern technologies such as genetically modified and high yield seeds, direct sowing techniques, machinery, crop yield optimization through land rotation, irrigation and the use of fertilizers and agrochemicals. To enhance our cattle production, we use genetic technology and have a strict animal health plan controlled periodically through traceability systems. In addition, we have introduced a feedlot to optimize our beef cattle management and state-of-the-art milking technologies in our dairy business.

•

Anticipating market trends. We seek to anticipate market trends in the agribusiness sector by (i) identifying opportunities generated by economic development at local, regional and worldwide levels, (ii) detecting medium- and long-term increases or decreases in supply and demand caused by changes in the world’s food consumption patterns and (iii) using land for the production of food and energy, in each case in anticipation of such market trends.

•

International expansion. Although most of our properties are located in different areas of Argentina, we have begun a process of expansion in other Latin American countries. We believe that an attractive opportunity exists to acquire and develop agricultural properties outside Argentina, and our objective is to replicate our business model in such other countries which include, among others, Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay and Uruguay. For example, in 2005 we and several Brazilian partners founded BrasilAgro. As of June 30, 2010, BrasilAgro had 9 properties totaling 174,840 hectares, purchased at highly attractive values compared to the average prices prevailing in the respective regions, all of which have a huge appreciation potential. In addition, during the fiscal year 2009, Cresud entered into a number

of agreements to formalize its positioning in South American countries. At June 30, 2010, the Company owned 12,166 hectares located in the Republic of Bolivia, and 50% of 45,578 hectares located in the Republic of Paraguay.

Increase and optimize production yields

We seek to increase and improve our production yields through the following initiatives:

•

Implementation of technology. We seek to continue using state-of-the-art technology to increase production yields. We plan to make further investments in machinery and the implementation of agricultural techniques such as direct sowing to improve cereal production. We believe that we may improve crop yields by using high-potential seeds (GMOs) and fertilizers and by introducing advanced land rotation techniques. In addition, we intend to continue installing irrigation equipment in some of our farms to achieve higher output levels.

•

We seek to continue improving beef cattle production through the use of advanced breeding techniques and technologies related to animal health. We plan to improve the use of pastures and expect to make further investments in infrastructure, including installation of watering troughs and electrical fencing.

•

We have implemented an individual animal identification system, using plastic tags for our beef cattle and “RFID” tags for our dairy cattle, to comply with national laws on traceability. Also, we acquired software from Westfalia Co. which enables us to store individual information about each of our dairy cows. In the beef cattle business, we initiated Argentina’s first vertically integrated beef cattle processing operation by entering into a partnership with Tyson Foods (through its controlled subsidiary Provemex Holdings LLC), hereinafter “Tyson Foods”, to set up Cactus Argentina S.A. (“Cactus”), a feedlot and slaughterhouse operator.

•

In connection with our milk production, we plan to continue developing our activities through the use of state-of-the-art technology and advanced feeding and techniques relating to animal health. For example, in May 2007 we opened one of the most modern dairy production facilities in Argentina, achieving a daily output of more than 40,000 liters.

•

Increased production. We seek to increase our crop, beef cattle and milk production in order to achieve economies of scale by:

•

Increasing our owned land in various regions of Argentina by taking advantage of attractive land purchase opportunities as they arise.

•

Leasing productive properties to supplement our expansion strategy, using our liquidity to make productive investments in our principal agricultural and livestock activities. We believe that leasing enhances our ability to diversify our production and geographic focus, in particular in areas not offering attractive prospects for appreciation of land value.

•

Developing properties in areas where agricultural and livestock production is not developed to its full potential. As of June 30, 2010, we owned 229,105 hectares of land reserves and held approximately 114048 hectares under concession located in under-utilized areas where agricultural and livestock production is not yet fully developed. We believe that technological tools are available to improve the productivity of such land and enhance its long-term value. However, current or future environmental regulations could prevent us from fully developing our land reserves by demanding us to maintain part of those lands as natural woodlands not allocated to production.

•

Diversifying market and weather risk by expanding our product and land portfolio. We seek to continue diversifying our operations to produce a range of different agricultural commodities in different markets, either directly or in association with third parties. We believe that a diversified product mix mitigates our exposure to seasonality, commodity price fluctuations, weather conditions and other factors affecting the agricultural and livestock sector. To achieve this objective in Argentina, we expect to continue to own and lease farmlands in various regions with differing weather patterns and to continue to seed a range of diversified products. Moreover, we believe that continuing to expand our agricultural operations outside of Argentina will enhance our ability to produce new agricultural products, further diversifying our mix of products, and mitigate further our exposure to regional weather conditions and country-specific risks.

Preservation of long-term value of our investment in IRSA

We seek to maintain the long-term value of our significant investment in the urban real estate sector through IRSA. We believe that IRSA is an ideal vehicle through which to participate in the urban real estate market due to its substantial and diversified portfolio of residential and commercial properties, the strength of its management and what we believe are its attractive prospects for future growth and profitability.

Macroeconomic Context

International Outlook

The global economy has started to show signals of recovery after the recent financial crisis. In the year 2009, at the global level, Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) shrank slightly, with a -0.6% change according to the International Monetary Fund (“IMF”), a situation without precedents in the past 30 years. However, this figure conceals major inequalities amongst the groups of countries. GDP in the most developed markets dropped by 3.2% whereas in the developing countries’ markets, it rose by 2.4%.

The recovery seen in the second half of 2009 could not offset the shrinkage sustained in the first half. International financial markets posted minimum figures in early 2009 but exhibited profits at year end. At the global level, the MSCI All Countries index picked up a 31.5% change when measured in US Dollars; the MSCI World (representative of developed markets) posted a 27.0% variation whilst the MSCI Emerging Markets climbed a significant 74.5%. Furthermore, it must be highlighted that performance at the level of developing countries was much higher than in the developed world. In this connection, performance at the local market levels also picked up the trend (in local currency). Whereas the S&P500 rose by 23.45%; the Eurostoxx 50, by 21.14% and the Nikkei by 17.82%, the Bovespa rose by 74.05% and Argentina’s Merval rose by 108.56%.

These recovery signals are reflected in the global GDP growth prospects for 2010. According to the IMF, global output is set to grow by 4.2% throughout 2010. However, regional disparities continue to be conspicuous as the forecasts for the developed economies and for the developing economies are 2.3% and 6.3% respectively. The panorama depicted by the financial markets during the first half of 2010 has been less encouraging as most indices posted slight drops. The MSCI All Countries varied by –10.4%, the MSCI World by -10.9% and the MSCI Emerging Markets varied by -7.2%.

One of the major concerns arising from the crisis has been the possibility of the world entering a stage similar to that undergone by Japan since the early 90s, after the burst of the real estate bubble, that is, chronic deflation accompanied by a weak level of economic activity that low rates have not managed to revert.

According to the IMF, inflation at the global level was 2.2% in 2009, which constitutes a healthy figure for this indicator. However, if once again we break down this figure by degree of development, we notice that developed markets have experienced slight deflation, with a percentage change in their price levels during the same period of -0.1%.

As regards the commodities market during 2009, most raw materials saw a rise in their prices. Industrial metals went up by 91.2%, according to the GSCI Industrial index. The price of energy also bounced back as shown by the 62.4% rise in the GSCI Energy index. Besides, agricultural commodities went up by 14.7% during that period. In the first half of 2010, this trend reversed and the commodities accompanied the drop in financial markets. Indices dropped by 4.7%, 12.7% and 14.8% in the energy, industrial and agricultural groups, respectively.

The event with the most noxious consequences on financial markets in the course of this fiscal year has been the sovereign debt crisis suffered in Europe, which had its epicenter in Greece and posted deficits close to 13% of GDP. The crisis spread to Ireland, Portugal and Spain. These countries have come to be known as PIGS, the acronym in English formed by their initials. During the months of April and May, the markets experienced considerable jolts. According to several analysts, the fiscal tightening measures implemented by the above-mentioned countries will suffice to honor their external commitments and thus stabilize the market.

The Argentine Economy

Given this international context, the Argentine GDP has maintained its upward trend, though at a slower pace than in previous years, with a 0.9% variation in 2009 according to the Argentine Institute of Statistics and Censuses (“INDEC”). In the year to date, the level of activity has shown significant acceleration. For the first 5 months of 2010, the Monthly Economic Activity Estimator, as reported by INDEC and known as EMAE, picked up rises ranging from 4.9% to 12.4% compared to the same month in the previous fiscal year, with an upward trend. This indicator is usually used to predict GDP. Therefore, if the trend were to be maintained, GDP for 2010 could be expected to have risen by close to 8%.

During 2009, Total Consumption has been the most significant component in the Aggregate Demand, with a 77.7% share.

Private sector analysts and pundits disagree over the measurement criteria that make up INDEC’s Consumer Price Index. Therefore, inflation figures do not convey absolute certainty.

According to INDEC statistics, the Consumer Price Index for Greater Buenos Aires, which measures price variations in the City of Buenos Aires and in Greater Buenos Aires, inflation in the period June 2009 through June 2010 has been approximately 11%, with the most significant increase having been in food and beverages, up by 15.7%, followed by clothes, up by 14.2%, and education, up by 12.8%.

As regards wholesale prices, in the period June 2009 through June 2010, there was a 15.2% variation in the Wholesale Internal Price Index (“IPIM”), a 14.9% variation in the Retail Internal Basic Price Index (“IPIB”), and a 13.9% variation in the Basic Price for Producers Index (“IPP”).

On the other hand, as reported by private sector sources, the Consumer Price Index for the City of Buenos Aires rose by 21.3% in the period June 2009 through June 2010. This figure is almost twice as big as that unveiled by the official statistics.

By June 2010, the average salary in the Argentine economy had accumulated a 23% raise over the past 12 months, way above the official figures for retail inflation (almost double) and in line with private sector inflation estimates.

During the first four-month period of 2010 and according to official statisticians, the unemployment rate measured over the Economically Active Population (“PEA”) had been 8.3% whilst the level of activity edged down to 46% and employment to 42.2%

In spite of the international crisis, Argentina’s external sector showed during 2009 a surplus trade balance, with exports for Ps. 244.5 billion and imports for Ps. 183.3 billion according to official data. The surplus was maintained during the first quarter of 2010, with a Ps. 24.7 billion difference between exports and imports. However, the trade balance exhibits a trend towards a lesser surplus.

When it comes to public finances, according to the Ministry of Economy, the primary result for the Public Sector for the year 2009 had been Ps. 17,285 million. This stands for a 46% drop compared to the year 2008. However, the primary result for the Public Sector for the first half of 2010 was Ps. 11,088 million, that is, 50% higher than for the same period a year earlier.

During fiscal year 2010, the Argentine Government reopened the swap of defaulted sovereign debt with the overarching objective being to recover access to the international financial markets. It sought to have more than 60% of the holdouts (i.e., the bondholders who had refrained from accepting the swap back in 2005) accept the swap to attain a 90% acceptance level with the two swaps (2005 and 2010). This would have helped render the attachments levied abroad ineffectual.

However, market conditions were not favorable to that decision as the reopening coincided with the onset of the PIGS crisis. Therefore, an extension in terms was announced in order to obtain fresh funds at less than one-digit rates with a Global 2017 bond. Unfortunately, the crisis lasted more than expected and therefore the proceeds were less than intended and rates were higher than one digit. The final results indicated that adherence had been 66%, with notes rolled over for US$ 12,067 million out of the total US$ 18,300 million covered by the transaction. Considering the 2005 and 2010 debt swaps, Argentina secured a global adhesion level of 92.4%, with an average 65% reduction.

In the period discussed, Argentina’s country risk as measured by its five-year Credit Default Swap (“CDS”) for senior US$ -denominated indebtedness continues to exhibit a spread that is high when compared to the most solid countries in the region, Brazil and Mexico. The dramatic increase seen after the Lehman Brothers’ bankruptcy was partly counterbalanced as from July 2009, when CDS pricked the 2000 basis points mark. Throughout the second part of 2009, a sustained decline has been noted in the surcharges that Argentina pays for its debt, which came to a halt in the first half of 2010 together with the emergence of debt problems in peripheral European countries. The difference between the CDS in Argentina and Brazil and/or Mexico compared to performance before the financial crisis is still high.

LOGO

The above-mentioned situation, together with the major liquidity injections in the global market caused a downward pressure over the rate of private bank deposits at 30 days which decreased continually from 13% in July 2009 to levels close to 9% for June 2010. The pundits foresee a rise in interest rates in the medium term, in line with the expectations in the rest of the world.

Following the normalization in international financial conditions, the Argentine Central Bank (BCRA) has continued with its progressive devaluation and reserve accumulation policy. The foreign exchange rate depreciated by 3.6% in the period June 2009 through June 2010 and reserves rose by US$ 2,843 million, being close to UDS 50 billion. This level is quite similar to that previous to the financial crisis of 2009.

During fiscal year 2010, the multilateral real exchange rate was also affected by the difference between the depreciation of the Peso against the basket of currencies that make it up and the inflation sustained by the Argentine economy. There was a 2.4% appreciation, a percentage that has been deflated by INDEC’s CPI, because the figures as released by private sources point to an even higher real appreciation. At present, the comparison with the 1998 average shows that the multilateral real foreign exchange rate depreciated by 139% according to BCRA data deflated by INDEC’s CPI. However, if deflated by the Consumer Price Index for the City of Buenos Aires, there was a 58% depreciation.

According to official data, Fixed Internal Gross Investment (“IBIF”), measured in real terms, was in the region of 20% of GDP for the first quarter of 2010 with the following distribution: 11.4% for the construction sector and 8.7% for the durable goods sector.

The use of industrial installed capacity was 76.7% in May 2010, a 70.5% rise compared to the level posted in the same month of 2009. The sectors that benefited the most were the basic metal industries, the car-making sector and the textile sector, which had taken the hardest blows at the peak of the global financial crisis. Despite the rise in the general level of activity, there were sectors with unfavorable performance, such as the chemicals and oil refining sectors.

AGRICULTURE AND CATTLE RAISING SECTORS IN ARGENTINA

Argentina has positioned itself over the years as one of the world’s leading food producers and exporters. It is the second largest country in South America after Brazil and has particularly favorable natural conditions for diversified agricultural production: vast extensions of fertile land and varied soil and weather patterns.

During the decade of the nineties, the Argentine agriculture and cattle raising industry experienced sweeping changes, such as a significant increase in production and yield (thanks to a sustained agricultural modernization process), relocation of production (crops vs. livestock) and a significant restructuring process within the industry, as well as land concentration. Taking advantage of a favorable international context, the agriculture and cattle raising sector has been one of the major drivers of the Argentine recovery after the economic and financial crisis of 2002.

Agriculture Sector

The 2009/10 crop season experienced a strong recovery compared to the 2008/09 season, in which severe droughts affected crops in extensive regions of the country.

According to estimates of the United States Department of Agriculture (“USDA”) in the 2009/10 season total production of the main crops (soybean, corn, sunflower and wheat) would surpass 88.4 million tons, 47.3% higher than in the 2008/09 season and almost reaching the record levels of 2007/08 before the drought. Total production of oilseeds for the 2009/10 season reached 56.3 million tons, 61% higher than the previous season and even 11% higher than in 2007/08.

As estimated by the USDA, sunflower production reached 2.3 million tons. This figure was the lowest one in the last 30 years, far below the 4.65 million tons produced in the 2007/08 season. In the case of wheat, from the 10.1 million tons produced in the previous season, the USDA anticipates that in the 2009/10 season the output will reach 9.6 million tons. In connection with corn, the final output is expected to be 22.5 million tons, compared to almost 15 million tons for the previous season. As concerns soybean, according to the USDA, production in Argentina reached 54.0 million tons, 69% higher than the 32.0 million tons recorded in the previous season.

Crop prices are still far below the levels reached between 2007 and 2008. Although there were several improvements in the first half of 2009 caused mainly by the decrease in the production of crops in South America as a result of the drought, prices dropped again during the second half of the year. During the first months of 2010 grain prices generally rebounded, showing bullish performances in certain cases (mainly wheat) due to the strong drought that affects the Russian production.

As regards export taxes withholding rates applied on exports stand at 35% in the case of soybean, 23% in the case of wheat and 20% in the case of corn. At present these rates are being debated in Congress, and there are several bills aimed at reducing them. Through this scheme, the government withholds a fixed percentage over the FOB price of grains, which means that any future price increase has an impact on both the farmers’ and the government’s revenues. In 2009, revenues derived from export withholdings fell 11% compared to 2008, to $32,042 million, or 10.5% of the Argentine State revenues (2.9 percentage points lower than in 2008). The amount of withholdings from exports of vegetable products reached $6,132 million, while withholdings from fat and animal or vegetable oils totaled $4,912 million (both accounting for 34% of the revenues from export duties).

Since 1994, agricultural production has been growing significantly as a result of changes in production systems with the extension of direct sowing, biotechnology and the larger use of agrochemicals, fertilizers and irrigation. In addition, the increase in sown areas with the incorporation of marginal areas to production and the expansion of agricultural activity into traditionally cattle raising areas, added to higher yields, have been the major drivers of growth.

Along with this production process, exports of crops and by-products have also shown a sustained growth in the last years. From the total of US$ 55,800 million of foreign sales during 2009, US$ 16,573 million resulted from sales of beans, soybean oil, flour and pellets, corn and wheat exclusive for sowing and oil, sunflower seeds and pellets, which represents 29.7% of total foreign sales. Argentina is the third worldwide exporter of soybean crops and the largest global supplier of soybean oil and flour, and this year it might again be the first worldwide exporter of corn.

According to the report prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture, USDA Agricultural Baseline Projections to 2019, the Argentine agricultural production continues to have very good prospects, and the country is positioned as a strong competitor of the US in the agriculture and cattle raising sector.

According to the USDA’s report, in the short term both the United States and the rest of the world are expected to continue to recover financially from the 2008-09 recession. The resumption of sustained growth in the global economy will fuel increases in consumption, trade and prices in the long term. In addition, the long-term development of global agriculture reflects a continued demand for biofuels, in particular in the United States and the European Union.

The average rate of growth of the global economy is expected to be 3.0% per year between 2010 and 2019. The higher growth expected in developing countries is the basis for the strong demand for food anticipated for the coming years, as their populations obtain higher revenues.

World agricultural production grows in reply to high prices and technology improvements. However, the limited capacity to expand sown areas in many countries and the deceleration of increases in global productivity hold back sustained growth in production.

According to the USDA report mentioned above, traditional exporters of a wide variety of agricultural commodities such as Argentina, Australia, Canada, the European Union (“EU”) and the United States will continue to be significant players in the world trade during the next decade. However, countries that are making large investments in their agricultural sectors and which lay increased emphasis on agricultural fostering policies, such as Brazil, Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan, are expected to have a growing presence in agricultural commodity export markets. For the next years, an increase in the number of tons produced is expected, with two thirds of the growth in world production to result from higher crop yields and one third from the increase in sown land, estimated in approximately 45 million hectares in a basis case.

In relation to prices, the long-term growth in demand for agricultural products combined with the continuing demand of corn for ethanol in the United States and vegetable oils for biodiesel in Europe, sustain the prices of corn, oilseed and other crops at historically high levels.

According to the USDA, the production of biofuels has experienced a swift expansion in several countries. Projections assume that over the next years the most significant increase in biofuel production will occur in the European Union, Brazil, Argentina and Canada, pushing up the already growing demand for seeds used for the production of oils. Argentina is the first exporter of soybean oil and by-products, showing its large milling capacity, small domestic demand for these products and export tax policy that favors the export of soybean by-products and biodiesel as compared to soybeans. Biodiesel production in Argentina is expected to double during the period under analysis.

In addition, the expansion in ethanol production in the United States is expected to continue until 2019, although estimated growth rates will be lower than those of previous years. Biodiesel production in the United States is expected to reach a billion gallons in 2012.

Due to the increase in the production of ethanol from corn in the United States, the USDA report expects an increase in the production and export of corn for countries such as Argentina, Brazil, Ukraine and the European Union countries. Argentina is expected to maintain its leadership position as second worldwide exporter of corn.

Beef Cattle Sector

In the past years, the worldwide beef market has experienced sweeping changes and great dynamism due to international supply and demand conditions.

On the side of demand, in a context of more restrictive commercial policies, deteriorating economic conditions at international level and changing market conditions, there was a decrease in beef consumption worldwide during 2008. On the other hand, according to FAO estimates, the world production of cattle beef increased by 0.8% in 2009, reaching 281.5 million tons.

Argentina is one of the leading world producers and exporters of cattle beef, with a stock close to 48 million cattle heads according to the FAA, a contraction of almost 7 million compared to last year. Approximately 80% of the country’s production is sold in the domestic market where Argentineans consumed 67.7 kg per capita per year in 2009 (for the first 6 months of 2010 this figure fell to 56.3 kg per capita).

As a result of the strong demand in recent years -both domestic and foreign- and contracting supply, an exponential increase in consumer prices was generated. To counteract this effect a minimum weight of slaughtered animals was established, and a number of quantity and administrative restrictions were applied to foreign sales of cattle beef.

Cattle beef production in 2009 recorded a moderate increase in aggregate volume compared to the previous year, from 3.1 million equivalent tons of dressed carcasses to approximately 3.4 million tons. This increase is explained in part by the lower stocks resulting from the poor quality of pastures caused by the droughts.

In the past years female slaughter, in terms of head, has been experiencing a liquidation cycle. According to the IPCVA, the ratio of slaughtered females was 48.1% in 2009.

In line with the foregoing, in the first months of 2010 the prices of most beef cattle categories reached significantly higher levels than in the previous years, with average increases ranging from 60% to 80%.

According to data from the SAGPyA, during 2009, 661 thousand tons of cattle beef were exported (in terms of dressed carcasses). This meant a 54.0% increase compared to export volumes in 2008. In monetary terms, foreign sales generated revenues of US$ 1,653million, 11.2% higher than in 2008, despite the drop in prices of dressed carcass tons, which represented 28%. For the first five months of 2010, cattle beef exports reached 141,100 tons (in terms of dressed carcasses), 37.3% lower than the volume exported in the period from January to May 2009.

The above price increase has been favorable to beef cattle producers. However, the smaller supply, shortage of raw materials and constrained margins have affected the value chain, reducing cold-storage plant utilization, which in turn has left several plants struggling to remain operational.

The development of the livestock sector in Argentina has always been closely linked to the control of foot-and-mouth disease (FMD). Having been declared free of the disease “with vaccination” in 2002, in February 2006 there was an outbreak that affected this status. The outbreak was quickly brought under control and the country regained the status of “FMD-free” country in early 2007.

BSE still affects livestock at the worldwide level. Argentina is one of the world producers, together with Australia, Finland, Iceland, Norway, New Zealand, Paraguay, Singapore, Sweden and Uruguay, that has been recognized as a “BSE-free country”. The SENASA has played a major role in this issue, as it soon imposed sanitation control measures to isolate the country and prevent the disease.

Milk Sector

According to the FAO, in a context of strong import demand, the bad prospects for milk production in the major dairy exporting countries have sustained international prices of dairy products in the first nine months of 2010. The world production of diary products is estimated at 712 million tons, 2% higher than in 2009, fueled by increases in production in the developing countries. Trade was dynamic during the first months of 2010, with a significant expansion in exports from New Zealand and the United States. On the import side, an increase in Southeast Asia and oil exporting countries is anticipated. A critical factor in the markets is the high level of stocks for dairy products in the EU, purchased under intervention in late 2008 and early 2009 when prices fell. The evolution of the markets in 2010 will depend on how and when the EU uses these stocks.

In 2009, total milk production in Argentina was 10,054.0 million liters, 0.4% above the total recorded in 2008. Despite this increase, production was impacted by drought and higher production costs.

In regard to exports, the principal destinations of Argentine milk exports in 2009 were Brazil, Algeria and Venezuela. According to official data, in 2009, 307,132 tons of milk products were exported, representing revenues of US$ 756.6 million. These figures represented an increase of 10% in volume but a reduction of 29% in value compared to the previous year. It should be noted that milk product prices experienced a significant decrease in the international market.

Appreciation of Land Value

From 2002 to 2008, Argentine land values accounted for a strong rise mainly as a consequence of the attractive international prices of grains. Besides, the technological package consisting of direct sowing, the application of fertilizers, soil humidity handling and agrochemicals have helped extend agricultural borders in many areas. The increase in productivity has driven prices in many regions that were formerly regarded as marginal areas for agriculture purposes.

The chart below shows the changes in average prices for nucleus, mixed and breeding farm areas since 1990, as per the survey conducted by Compañía Argentina de Tierras for Márgenes Agropecuarios magazine:

During 2009, land prices dropped 11% for corn areas, 14% for wheat areas, 6% for winter grazing pastures, and 17% for cattle breeding areas. However, during the first quarter of 2010, all these categories recovered: the value of land increased by 14% for fields in corn areas, 5% for wheat areas, 14% for winter grazing pastures and 18% for cattle breeding areas.

Product Prospects⁽¹⁾

The sources of the following information are the SAGPyA, the United States Department of Agriculture (“USDA”), the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture, Márgenes Agropecuarios, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and internal data.

Wheat

According to the FAO, the world production of wheat for the 2010/211 season would drop to 651 million tons, down from 682.4 million in the previous season. The main causes of this decrease are the enduring dry conditions and bad weather affecting Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan and various countries in the EU, along with the decrease forecast in Canada.

As regards Argentina, the USDA projects a 12.0 million ton production for the 2010/2011 season. Out of this production, 3 million have been authorized for export. However, almost all shippings will go to Brazil, by far the largest customer for Argentina, with little left to the other markets temporarily abandoned by Russia, according to the Cereals Exchange. According to the Ministry of Agriculture, the sown area will improve in this season, increasing from 3.5 to 4.25 million hectares.

Corn

Globally, the USDA estimates that corn production will reach 831.6 million tons for the 2010/2011 season, an increase of 2.9% compared to the 808.45 million tons in the previous season.

For Argentina, the USDA estimates that corn production would reach approximately 21.0 million tons, 6.7% lower than in the 2009/10 season.

Soybean

In the case of soybean, for the 2010/2011 season, the USDA projects a world production of 253.7 million tons, 2.3% lower than the previous year.

For Argentina, the USDA estimates project a production of 50.0 million tons for the 2010/11 season, 7.4% lower than the 2009/10 record season.

Sunflower

Sunflower world production for the 2010/2011 season would climb to 34.33 million tons, resuming growth after the low output of the previous season, which had reached 31.5 million tons. Output for the 2009/10 season had recorded a drop of 3.19 million tons compared to the previous season, partly due to the scarce production in Russia and Argentina.

In Argentina, the 2010/2011 season would reach 3.4 million tons, an increase close to 48% compared to the 2009/2010 season.

Beef Cattle

According to the FAO, despite the improved global economic situation, prospects for beef cattle production in 2010 continue to be low due to the relatively high prices of food products. The expansion of production in Brazil and India is expected to be offset by decreases in most of the other large producers who have reduced herds. Provisional estimates point to a stagnation in world production, that would reach 64.9 million tons in 2010 compared to 64.7 million tons in 2009.

On the other hand, Argentina’s beef cattle stock is significantly lower when compared to historical levels. 2010 production is expected to close at low levels, especially as compared to 2009, which implied the impairment of herds due to drought conditions. Although live weight prices have improved, it will take some time before the market balances, in view of the scarce supply.

Milk

According to the FAO’s “Food Outlook” for June, world production of milk would reach 712 million tons in 2010, an increase of 2% from last year. Production is expected to increase above 3% in developing countries and to remain steady in developed countries, as well as in the major milk exporting countries.

World demand is expected to rise during this decade as a result of higher consumption in Russia, India and Asia. In these regions, consumption of dairy products increases hand in hand with rises in the population’s income. Therefore, the development of the economic crisis will be a key factor in predicting the trend in world demand and consequently, in prices, according to the United Kingdom’s Dairy Council.

In Argentina, production is expected to increase 2% in 2010. Favorable rainfall conditions allowed to store food products in silos and the ratio between the price of milk and the cost of grains is satisfactory.

History

We were incorporated in 1936 as a subsidiary of Credit Foncier, a Belgian company engaged in the business of providing rural and urban loans in Argentina. We were incorporated to administer real estate holdings foreclosed by Credit Foncier. Credit Foncier was liquidated in 1959, and as a part of such liquidation, our shares were distributed to Credit Foncier’s shareholders and in 1960 were listed on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange. During the 1960s and 1970s, our business shifted to exclusively agricultural activities.

During 1993 and 1994, Consultores Assets Management acquired on behalf of certain investors approximately 22% of our outstanding shares on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange. In late 1994, an investor group led by Consultores Assets Management (including Dolphin Fund plc.) purchased additional shares increasing their aggregate shareholding to approximately 51.4% of our outstanding shares. In 1997, we increased our capital through a rights offering and global public offering of ADRs representing our common shares and listed such ADRs on the NASDAQ. In March 2008, we concluded the capital increase for 180 million shares, in which 100% of the shares offered were subscribed locally and internationally.

As of June 30, 2010, we had invested approximately Ps.815.9 million to acquire 57.49% of the outstanding common shares of IRSA. Between December 2007 and June 30, 2010, we acquired 133,293,724 shares of IRSA, increasing our interest to 57.49% at the closing of fiscal year 2009. As from October 1, 2008, Cresud presents its financial statements in consolidated form with IRSA’s.

(1)	Does not include hectares from AgroUranga S.A. nor BrasilAgro.

(2)	Production measured in tons.

As of June 30, 2010, our crop stocks consisted in 5,466 tons of wheat, 40,034 tons of corn, 40,501 tons of soybean, 3,074 of sorghum and 1,083 tons of sunflower; whereas as of June 30, 2009 such stocks consisted in 4,002 tons of wheat, 36,517 tons of corn, 25,497 tons of soybean, 3,486 tons of sorghum and 8,648 tons of sunflower. As of June 30, 2010, the surface area of leased land was 40% of the total sown land.

We seek to diversify our mix of products and the geographic location of our farmlands to achieve an adequate balance between the two principal risks associated with our activities: weather conditions and the fluctuations in the prices of commodities. In order to reduce such risks, we own and lease land in several areas of Argentina with different climate conditions to permit us to be able to sow a diversified range of products. Our leased land for crops is mostly located in Pampa region, a favorable area for crop production. The leased farms are previously studied by technicians who analyze future production expectations based on the historic use of the land. The initial duration of lease agreements is typically one or three seasons. Leases of farms for production of crops generally consist of lease agreements with payments based on a fixed amount of Pesos per hectare or crop sharing agreements (“aparcería”) with payments in kind based on a percentage of the crops obtained or a fixed amount of tons of grains obtained or their equivalent value in Pesos. The

principal advantage of leasing farms is that leases do not require us to commit large amounts of capital to the acquisition of lands but permit us to increase our scale in the short term and reduce the risk of inclement weather. The disadvantage of this strategy is that the cost of leasing can increase over time, in part, because increased demand for leased land increases the price of leased land.

In order to increase our production yields, we use, besides state-of-the-art technology, labor control methods which imply the supervision of the seeding’s quality (density, fertilization, distribution, and depth), crop monitoring (determination of natural losses and losses caused by harvester) and verification of bagged crop quality. In this way, we work jointly with our suppliers to achieve the best management of inputs, water and soil.

Wheat seeding takes place from June to August, and harvesting takes place from December to January. Corn, soybean and sunflower are sown from September to December and are harvested from February to June. Grains are available to be sold as commodities after the harvest from December to June and we usually store part of our production until prices recover after the drop that normally takes place during the harvesting season. A major part of production, especially wheat and sunflower seeds, corn and sorghum, is sold and delivered to buyers pursuant to agreements in which price conditions are fixed by reference to the market price at a specific time in the future that we determine. The rest of the production is either sold at current market prices or delivered to cover any futures contract that we may have entered into.

Beef Cattle Production

Our beef cattle production involves the breeding and fattening of our own animals. In some cases, if market conditions are favorable, we also purchase and fatten cattle which we sell to slaughterhouses and supermarkets. As of June 2010, our beef cattle aggregated 71,238 heads, and we had a total surface area of 93,140 hectares dedicated to this business activity.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, our beef cattle activities generated sales of Ps.39.3 million, representing 12% of our consolidated sales, and our production was 5,659 tons, a decrease of 20.4% compared to the previous fiscal year. The decrease in production and sales volume was primarily due to the fact that less heads of cattle were sent to the feedlot, which delayed the fattening process. In addition, it should be noted that the scarce rainfall in certain producing areas forced us to relocate livestock in some cases, which resulted in alterations in the cattle fattening process.

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated below, the beef cattle production volumes:


	Fiscal Year ended June 30,
	2006⁽¹⁾	2007⁽¹⁾	2008⁽¹⁾	2009⁽¹⁾	2010⁽¹⁾
	(in tons)
Beef cattle production⁽²⁾	9,803	9,913	8,786	7,112	5,659

(1)	Does not include production from AgroUranga S.A.

(2)	Production measured in tons of live weight. Production is the sum of the net increases (or decreases) during a given period in live weight of each head of beef cattle owned by us.

Management by lot in our pastures is aided by electrical fencing which may be easily relocated to supplement our land-rotation cycles. Our cattle herd is subject to a 160 kg to 360 kg fattening cycle by grazing in pastures located in our north farmlands, where conditions are adequate for initial fattening. For fattening above 360 kg, cattle are fattened until they reach 430 kg in our San Luis feedlot. The feedlot fattening system leads to homogeneity in production and beef of higher quality and tenderness because of the younger age at which animals are slaughtered.

Our cattle breeding activities are carried out with breeding cows and bulls and our fattening activities apply to steer, heifers and calves. Breeding cows calve approximately once a year and their productive lifespan is from six to seven years. Six months after birth, calves are weaned and transferred to fattening pastures. Acquired cattle are directly submitted to the fattening process. Upon starting this process, cattle have been grazing for approximately one year to one and a half year in order to be fattened for sale. Steer and heifers are sold when they have achieved a weight of 380–430 kg and 280–295 kg, respectively, depending on the breed.

Pregnancy levels, which have been improving over the years, showed satisfactory levels of efficiency notwithstanding the adverse weather conditions. Genetics and herd management is expected to further improve pregnancy levels in the coming years. Reproductive indicators improved thanks to the implementation of technologies, which have included handling techniques and females artificial insemination with cattle genetics especially selected for the stock which is purchased from specialized companies in quality semen elaboration for meat production. We use veterinarian products manufactured by leading national and international laboratories. It is important to emphasize the work of a veterinarian advising committee, who are external to us and visit each establishment monthly to control and agree tasks.

Currently, the cattle raising farms are officially registered as export farmlands pursuant to the identification and traceability rules in force in Argentina. Animals are individually identified, thus allowing for the development of special businesses in this area.

Our beef cattle stock is organized into breeding and fattening activities. The following table shows, for the periods indicated, the number of head of beef cattle for each activity:


	Head of Beef Cattle ⁽¹⁾
	Fiscal Year ended June 30,
	2006⁽²⁾	2007⁽²⁾	2008⁽²⁾	2009⁽²⁾	2010⁽²⁾
Breeding	63,015	62,181	57,999	59,283	61,859
Fattening	17,654	21,546	22,359	28,520	9,379

Total	80,669	83,727	80,358	87,803	71,238

(1)	For classification purposes, upon birth, all calves are considered to be in the breeding process.

(2)	Does not include heads of beef cattle from AgroUranga S.A.

We seek to improve beef cattle production and quality in order to obtain a higher price through advanced breeding techniques. We cross breed our stock of Indicus, British (Angus and Hereford) and Continental breeds to obtain herds with characteristics better suited to the pastures in which they graze. To enhance the quality of our herds even further, we plan to continue improvement of our pastures through permanent investment in seeds and fertilizers, an increase in the watering troughs available in pastures, and the acquisition of round bailers to cut and roll grass for storage purposes.

Our emphasis on improving the quality of our herd also includes the use of animal health-related technologies. We comply with national animal health standards that include laboratory analyses and vaccination aimed at controlling and preventing disease in our herd, particularly FMD.

Direct costs of beef production consist primarily of seeds for pasture (for instance, gatton panic, oats and barley) and crops for feeding and dietary supplementation purposes and animal health costs, among others.

Milk Production

As of June 30, 2010 we conducted our milk business in three dairy facilities located in two farms, “La Juanita” and “El Tigre”. We have a total capacity of 3,800 cows in milking per day and seek to increase total productivity through the application of new technologies including improved genetic management for milk production, feeding strategic planning based on cattle specific requirements and the use of individual traceability to know the productivity history of each animal. Also we use computer science in milk business to make more efficient the manual labor by surveying the information supplied by the farms.

After the fiscal year’s closing date, on September 3, 2010, we signed the title deed of sale of the “La Juanita” farm, located in the District of Trenque Lauquen, Province of Buenos Aires.

Within the process of de-commoditization and technological innovation, we implemented an identification and tracing system in compliance with European and SENASA standards, with the purpose of distinguishing our production and obtaining higher prices in production sales.

As of June 30, 2010, the three dairy farms had obtained the Global Gap and HACCP certification.

Our milk production is based on a herd of Holando Argentina dairy cows, genetically selected through the use of imported frozen semen of North American Holando bulls. Male calves are sold, at calving, for a given amount per head, whereas female calves are weaned after 24 hours, spend approximately 60 days in raising and approximately 100 days being fed on the basis of grass, grains and supplements. Young heifers then graze for an additional 12 to 15 month period, prior to artificial insemination at the age of 18 to 20 months and they calve nine months later. Heifers are subsequently milked for an average of 300 days. Milking dairy cows are once again inseminated during the 60 to 90 day subsequent period. This process is repeated once a year during six or seven years. The pregnancy rate for our dairy cows is 80-90%.

Our dairy herd is milked mechanically twice a day. The milk obtained is cooled to less than five degrees centigrade to preserve quality and is then stored in a tank for delivery once a day to trucks sent by buyers. Dairy cows are fed mainly with grass, supplemented as needed with grains, hay and silage. We have invested in certain technologies that focus on genetic improvement, animal health and feeding in order to improve our milk production. These investments include imports of top quality frozen semen from genetically improved North American Holstein bulls, agricultural machinery and devices such as feed-mixer trucks, use of dietary supplements and the installation of modern equipment to control milk cooling. We are currently acquiring dietary supplements for our dairy cows and have made investments with the aim of increasing the quantity and quality of forage (pasture, alfalfa and corn silage) in order to reduce feeding costs.

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the average number of our dairy cows, average daily production per cow and our total milk production:


	Milk Production

(1)	Does not include production from AgroUranga S.A.

(2)	Includes production of “El Tigre” dairy farm as from March 1, 2005.

At the closing of fiscal year 2009, we had 7,634 heads of cattle on 4,106 hectares involved in the production of milk. As of June 30, 2010, we had 8,250 heads of cattle on 4,637 hectares to milk production.

Farms

Land Acquisitions

We intend to increase our farmland portfolio by acquiring large surfaces of land with high appreciation potential. We also intend to transform the land acquired from non-productive to cattle breeding, from cattle breeding to farming, or applying state-of-the-art technology to improve farming yields so as to generate higher appreciation.

In our view, the sector’s potential lies in developing marginal areas and/or underutilized areas. As a result of current technology, we may achieve similar yields with higher profitability than core areas; this may result in the appreciation of land values.

At present, prices of farmlands used in agricultural production have increased in the southern hemisphere (mainly South America) but continue to be relatively low compared to the northern hemisphere (U.S. and Europe). Our financial strength relative to other Argentine producers enables us to increase our land holdings at attractive prices, increase our production scale and create potential for capital appreciation.

Several important intermediaries, with whom we usually work, bring farmlands available for sale to our attention. The decision to acquire farmlands is based on the assessment of a number of factors. In addition to the land’s location, we normally carry out an analysis of soil and water, including the quality of the soil and its suitability for our intended use (crops, beef cattle, or milk production), classify the various sectors of the lot and the prior use of the farmland; analyze the improvements in the property, any easements, rights of way or other variables in relation to the property title; examine satellite photographs of the property (useful in the survey of soil drainage characteristics during the different rain cycles) and detailed comparative data regarding neighboring farms (generally covering a 50-km area). Based on the foregoing factors, we assess the farmland in terms of the sales price compared against the production potential of the land and the appreciation potential of the capital. We consider that competition for the acquisition of farmlands is, in general, limited to small farmers for the acquisition of smaller lots, and that there is scarce competition for the acquisition of bigger lots.

In addition, we may consider the acquisition of farmlands in marginal zones and their improvement by irrigation in non-productive areas as well as the installation of irrigation devices in order to obtain attractive production yields and create potential for capital appreciation.

On July 24, 2008, we signed the deed of sale for two parcels of “El Recreo” farm (1,829 hectares), located in the Province of Catamarca. The transaction was agreed for a price of US$ 0.36 million, of which US$ 0.12 million were paid. The balance of US$ 0.24 million will be paid in two annual and consecutive installments plus interest equivalent to the Libor rate plus 3%. The gain from this transaction was recognized during the last fiscal year as established in point 5.11.2 of Technical Resolution No. 17 of the Argentine Federation of Professional Councils in Economic Sciences (FACPCE).

On April 7, 2009, we signed the deed of sale for 1,658 hectares of “Los Pozos” farm located in the Province of Salta. The transaction was agreed for a price of US$ 0.5 million, that was collected in full as of the date of these financial statements.

On December 17, 2009, we signed a preliminary agreement for the sale of the “Tali Sumaj” farm (12,701 hectares), located in the Province of Catamarca. The transaction was agreed for a price of

US$ 4.8 million. US$ 500,000 have been already collected, whereas the balance was payable on April 15, 2010. The deed of sale would become effective if before April 15, 2010 the preliminary attachment levied in the matter of “EXAGRIND S.A.- Estancia San Rafael v. Tali Sumaj et al, on Damages” was released.

On April 14, 2010 the parties agreed to extend the closing date of the deed of sale and collection of the transaction price balance to May 17, 2010, conditioned upon the final release of the preliminary attachment mentioned above.

On May 28, 2010 possession of the property was surrendered as the full price had been previously received, and the execution of the deed of sale remained pending for reasons not attributable to the Company.

In addition, Cresud promised to take all actions available to it so as to obtain the release and/or the replacement of the attachment, and undertook to perform all obligations that might arise if an adverse judgment was entered against it and to bear all legal costs and further procedural expenses resulting from the entry of a final and conclusive judgment in the case. To such end, Cresud delivered a performance bond for the benefit of the purchaser as security for its obligations.

After the closing date of this fiscal year, on September 3, 2010, we signed the title deed of sale of the “La Juanita” farm, located in the District of Trenque Lauquen, Province of Buenos Aires. The transaction was agreed for a total price of US$ 18 million, out of which US$ 4.5 million have been already paid and the amount of US$ 12.5 million will be payable upon execution of the title deed, at which time possession will be surrendered. The balance of US$ 1 million will be payable on January 10, 2011. A first ranking mortgage has been set up for our benefit as security for payment of such balance. The sale resulted in a gain of approximately Ps.49.6 million, which will be reflected in the quarterly financial statements as of September 30, 2010.

Farmland Portfolio

As of June 30, 2010, we owned, together with our subsidiaries, 24 farms, with a total surface area of 473,368 hectares.

La Adela. Located 60 kilometers northwest of Buenos Aires, “La Adela” is one of our original farms. In December 2001, “La Adela’s” dairy facility was closed down, and its total surface area is now used for crop production. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, 1,086 hectares were used for

wheat, corn and soybean crops for high-yielding grain production. Between March 2005 and December 2007 we bought an additional 72 hectares which were added to the existing 982 hectares.

La Juanita. The “La Juanita” farm, located 440 kilometers southwest of Buenos Aires, was acquired in January 1996. As of June 30, 2010, 4,021 heads of cattle were grazing in 2,231 hectares of sown and natural pastures, and 1,434 hectares were used for crop production. This farm produced 11.9 million liters of milk during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, with an average of 1,643 dairy cows being milked and 17.5 liters per cow per day.

After the closing date of this fiscal year, on September 3, 2010, we executed the deed of sale of the “La Juanita” farm, located in the District of Trenque Lauquen, Province of Buenos Aires. The transaction was agreed for a total price of US$ 18 million, payable as follows: (i) the sum of Four Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (US$ 4,500,000) was paid upon execution of the preliminary sales agreement; (ii) the sum of Twelve Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (US$ 12,500,000) was paid upon execution of the title deed, and the balance, i.e. the sum of One Million U.S. Dollars (US$ 1,000,000) will be paid to us on January 10, 2011. A first ranking mortgage has been set up for our benefit as security for payment of such balance. The sale resulted in a gain of approximately Ps.49.6 million, which will be reflected in the quarterly financial statements as of September 30, 2010.

El Recreo. Weather conditions in “El Recreo” farm, located 970 kilometers northwest of Buenos Aires, in the Province of Catamarca, and acquired in May 1995, are similar to those in “Tali Sumaj” farm, with semi-arid climate and annual rainfall not in excess of 400 mm. This farm is maintained as a productive reserve.

On August 28, 2006, we signed a bill of sale for 1,800 hectares of “El Recreo” farm in the amount of US$ 0.15 million. As advance payment we have received US$ 0.05 million. This sale has not been recorded in our financial statements as title to the land has not yet been transferred.

On January 19, 2007, we signed a bill of sale for 50 hectares of “El Recreo” farm owned by us and Arcor Sociedad Anónima Industrial y Comercial in the amount of Ps.0.7 million. The purchase price has been fully paid to us.

On July 24, 2008, we signed the deed of sale for two parcels of land in “El Recreo” farm (1,829 hectares) located in the Province of Catamarca. The transaction was agreed for a price of US$ 0.36 million paid as follows: US$ 0.12 million upon execution of the deed of sale, and the balance of US$ 0.24 million was paid in two annual and consecutive installments plus interest equivalent to the Libor rate plus 3%. The final installment was paid on July 29, 2010.

Los Pozos. The “Los Pozos” farm, located 1,600 kilometers northwest of Buenos Aires, in the Province of Salta, was acquired in May 1995. This property is located in a semi-arid area with average annual rainfall of 500 mm. The area is naturally suited to cattle raising and forestry activities (poles and charcoal), and it has agricultural potential for summer crops such as sorghum and corn, among others. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, we used 3,231 hectares in agricultural production. We completed the development of tropical pastures in approximately 50,000 hectares. As of June 30, 2010, there were 52,263 heads of cattle in this farm. This farm has shown major growth through a complete cycle in the production of beef by succeeding in raising, re-raising and fattening steer to be sold at an average weight of 332 kg. On June 5, 2007 we signed the deed of sale for a parcel of 14,516 hectares of “Los Pozos” farm for a price of US$ 2.2 million, which has been received. The sale generated a gain of US$ 2.0 million. On October 22, 2007, we signed a deed for the transfer of an additional 4,974 hectares of our “Los Pozos” farm. The aggregate sales price was US$ 1.1 million, which has been fully collected. The sale generated a gain of approximately US$ 1.0 million. On April 7, 2009, we signed the deed of sale for 1,658 hectares of our farm. The transaction was agreed for a price of US$ 0.5 million, that was collected in full as of the date of these financial statements.

San Nicolás. “San Nicolás” is a 4,005 hectares farm owned by AgroUranga S.A., and is located in the Province of Santa Fe, approximately 45 kilometers from the Port of Rosario. As of June 30, 2010, approximately 6,458 hectares were in use for agricultural production, including double crops. The farm has two plants of silos with storage capacity of 14,950 tons.

Las Playas. The “Las Playas” farm has a surface area of 4,294 hectares and is owned by AgroUranga S.A. Located in the Province of Córdoba, it is used primarily for agricultural and milk production purposes. As of June 30, 2010, the farm had 736 hectares of pasture used for milk production and a sown surface area, including double crops, of 3,804 hectares for grain production.

La Gramilla and Santa Bárbara. These farms have a surface area of 7,052 hectares in Valle del Conlara, in the Province of San Luis. Unlike other areas in the Province of San Luis, this valley has a high quality underground aquifer which makes these farms well suited for agricultural production after investments were made in the development of lands, pits and irrigation equipment. In the course of the 2009/2010 farm season, a total of 2,428 hectares were sown, 625 hectares of which sown under contractual arrangement with seed producers, and we leased, in turn, 1,967 hectares to third parties. The remaining hectares are used as land reserves.

La Suiza. The “La Suiza” farm has a surface area of 41,993 hectares and is located in Villa Ángela in the Province of Chaco. It is used for raising cattle. As of June 30, 2010, “La Suiza” had a stock of approximately 14,275 heads of cattle. During the 2009/10 season, we used 2,917 hectares for growing cotton, corn, soybean and sorghum.

La Esmeralda. The “La Esmeralda” farm has a surface area of 9,370 hectares and is located in Ceres in the Province of Santa Fe. This farm, acquired in June 1998, has potential for both agricultural production and cattle raising. During the 2009/2010 farm season, we used a total area of 5,295 hectares, including double crops, for production of corn, sunflower and sorghum. As of June 30, 2010, “La Esmeralda” had 3,926 heads of cattle on 4,027 hectares. Our objective is to enhance its cattle raising efficiency, maintaining the bull breeding business, and increase its surface area assigned to agriculture. On December 27, 2007, we agreed to sell to Estancias San Bruno S.A. and Estancias El Algarrobo S.A. a 2,430-hectare parcel of this farm. The aggregate sales price was US$ 6.2 million that has been collected in full. The sale generated a gain of approximately US$ 5.3 million.

El Tigre. The “El Tigre” farm was acquired on April 30, 2003 and has a surface area of 8,365 hectares. It is located in Trenel in the Province of La Pampa. As of June 30, 2010, 4,985 hectares were assigned to crop production. This farm produced 12.6 million liters of milk in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, with an average of 1,654 cows being milked and an average daily production of 18.5 liters per cow.

El Invierno. The “El Invierno” farm was acquired on June 24, 2005 and has a surface area of 1,946 hectares. It is located in Rancul in the Province of La Pampa, 621 kilometers to the west of Buenos Aires. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, we used the land exclusively for crop production and planted 2,124 hectares, including double crops.

San Pedro. The “San Pedro” farm was purchased on September 1, 2005. It has a surface area of 6,022 hectares and is located in Concepción del Uruguay, Province of Entre Ríos, which is 305 kilometers north of Buenos Aires. In the course of the 2009/2010 farm season, 4,999 hectares were used for agricultural production, including double crops, and 1,143 hectares were leased to third parties for livestock activities.

8 de Julio and Estancia Carmen. The “8 de Julio” farm was acquired on May 15, 2007 and has a surface area of 90,000 hectares. It is located in the department of Deseado in the Province of Santa Cruz. Due to its large surface area, this farm offers excellent potential for sheep production. In addition, we believe the land has potential for future tourism and recreational activities, as the southeast border of the farm stretches over 20 kilometers of coast. “Estancia Carmen” was acquired on September 5, 2008 and has a surface area of 10.911 hectares. It is located in the Province of Santa Cruz, next to our “8 de Julio” farm, and as the latter, it has excellent potential for sheep production. As of June 30, 2010, these farms had a stock of 11,093 sheep.

Cactus. The feedlot has a surface area of 170 hectares and is owned by Cactus Argentina S.A. It is located in Villa Mercedes, Province of San Luis. Cactus was a joint venture between us, Cactus Feeders Inc., one of the largest feedlot companies in the United States, and Tyson Foods, a leading beef and poultry meat processing company. The feedlot began to operate in September 1999. On June 30, 2009, Cactus Feeders Inc. sold its equity interest in Cactus Argentina S.A.

Las Vertientes. The “Las Vertientes” storage facility has a surface area of 4 hectares and 10,000 tons capacity, and is located in Las Vertientes, Río Cuarto, in the Province of Córdoba.

La Esperanza. On April 22 and 23, 2008, we signed deeds for the purchase of 80% of the 980 hectares of “La Esperanza” farm located in the Province of La Pampa. The transaction was agreed for a price of US$ 1.3 million that has been paid in full. During the year ended June 30, 2010, we used this farm solely for crop production.

Puertas de Luján. On May 30, 2008, IRSA Inversiones y Representaciones Sociedad Anónima signed, as nominee, a bill of purchase with delivery of possession for 115 hectares of a parcel of a farm located in the District of Luján, Province of Buenos Aires. On December 13, 2008, the Company was formally recognized as principal of the transaction.

Jerovia. Agrology owns 50% of “Jerovia” farm, located in Mariscal José Félix Estigarribia, Department of Boquerón, Chaco Paraguayo, Republic of Paraguay, with a surface area of 45,578 hectares. During the 2009/10 season 2,834 hectares were used for agriculture.

Lease of Farms

We conduct our business on owned and leased land. Rental payments increase our production costs, as the amounts paid as rent are accounted for as operating expenses. As a result, production costs per hectare of leased land are higher than for the land owned by us.

Our land leasing policy is designed to supplement our expansion strategy, using our liquidity to make productive investments in our principal agricultural activities. On the other hand, our leasing strategy provides us with an added level of flexibility in the share of each of our products in total production, providing for greater diversification.

The initial duration of lease agreements is typically one crop season. Leases of farms for production of crops consist in lease agreements with payments based on a fixed amount of Pesos per hectare or crop sharing agreements (“aparcería”) with payments in kind based on a percentage of the crops obtained or a fixed amount of tons of grains obtained or their equivalent value in Pesos. Leases of farmlands for cattle breeding consist in lease agreements with fixed payments based on a fixed amount of Pesos per hectare or steer kilograms or capitalization agreements with payments in kind or in cash based on the weight gain in kilograms.

During fiscal year 2010, we leased from third parties a total of 68 fields, covering 55,331 hectares, of which 42,696 hectares were assigned to farming production, including double crops, and 12,635 hectares to cattle. The properties for agricultural production were leased, primarily, at a fixed price prior to harvest and only a small percentage consisted of crop sharing agreements.

The following table shows the breakdown of the number of hectares of leased land used for each of our principal production activities:


	Fiscal Year ended June 30,
	2008 Leased	2009 Leased	2010 Leased
Crops	30,449	59,615	42,696
Beef Cattle	32,895	32,795	12,635
Milk	—	—	—

Due to the rise in the price of land, we adopted a policy of not validating such prices and only leasing land at values that would ensure appropriate margins.

Silos

As of June 30, 2010, we had storage capacity of approximately 15,341 tons (including 35.723% over 14,950 tons available at AgroUranga S.A.).

The following table shows, for the fiscal years presented, our storage facilities:


	Storage capacity
	Fiscal year ended on June 30,
	2006	2007	2008	2009	2010
	(in tons)
Las Vertientes	10,000	10,000	10,000	10,000	10,000

Total	15,341	15,341	15,341	15,341	15,341

(1)	Owned by us through AgroUranga S.A. (which represents 35.723% of capacity).

Land Management

In contrast to traditional Argentine farms, run by families, we centralize policy making in an Executive Committee that meets on a weekly basis in Buenos Aires. Individual farm management is delegated to farm managers who are responsible for farm operations. The Executive Committee lays down commercial and production rules based on sales, market expectations and risk allocation.

We rotate the use of our pasture lands between agricultural production and cattle feeding and the frequency depends on the location and characteristics of the farmland. The use of preservation techniques (including exploitation by no till sowing) frequently allows us to improve farm performance.

Subsequent to the acquisition of the properties, we make investments in technology in order to improve productivity and increase the value of the property. It may be the case that upon acquisition, a given extension of the property is under-utilized or the infrastructure may be in need of improvement. We have invested in traditional fencing and in electrical fencing, watering troughs for cattle herds, irrigation equipment and machinery, among other things.

Principal Markets

Crops

Our grains production is entirely sold in the local market. The prices of our grains are based on the market prices quoted in Argentine grains exchanges such as the Bolsa de Cereales de Buenos Aires and the Bolsa de Cereales de Rosario that take as reference the prices in international grains exchanges. The largest part of this production is sold to exporters who offer and ship this production to the international market. Prices are quoted in relation to the month of delivery and the port in which the product is to be delivered. Different conditions in price, such as terms of storage and shipment, are negotiated between the end buyer and ourselves.

Beef Cattle

Our beef cattle production is sold in the local market. The main buyers are slaughterhouses and supermarkets.

Prices in the beef cattle market in Argentina are basically fixed by local supply and demand. The Liniers Market (on the outskirts of the Province of Buenos Aires) provides a standard in price formation for the rest of the domestic market. In this market live animals are sold by auction on a daily basis. At Liniers Market, prices are negotiated by kilogram of live weight and are mainly determined by local supply and demand. Prices tend to be lower than in industrialized countries. Some supermarkets and meat packers establish their prices by kilogram of processed meat; in these cases, the final price is influenced by processing yields.

Milk

During the fiscal years 2008, 2009 and 2010 we sold our entire milk production to the largest Argentine dairy company, Mastellone S.A., which in turn manufactures a range of mass consumption dairy products sold in Argentina and abroad. The price of the milk we sell is mainly based on the percentage of fat and protein that it contains and the temperature at which it is cooled. The price we obtain from our milk also rises or drops based on the content of bacteria and somatic cells.

Customers

For the fiscal year 2010 our sales were Ps.234.0 million and were made to approximately 135 customers. Sales to our ten largest customers represented approximately 74% of our net sales during the fiscal year 2009 and approximately 74% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. Of these customers, our biggest three customers, Cargill S.A., Molinos Río de la Plata S.A. and Mastellone Hnos. S.A. represented, in the aggregate, approximately 48% of our net sales, while the remaining seven customers in the aggregate represented approximately 26% of our net sales in fiscal year 2010. We have signed non-binding letters of intent with some of our largest customers that allow us to estimate the volume of the demand for certain products and to plan production accordingly. We generally enter into short-term agreements with a term of less than a year.

Marketing Channels and Sales Methods

Crops

We normally work with grains brokers and other intermediaries to trade in the exchanges. We sell part of our production in advance through futures contracts and buy and sell options to hedge against a drop in prices. Approximately 85% of the futures and options contracts are closed through the Bolsa de Cereales de Buenos Aires (Buenos Aires Grains Exchange) and 15% in the Chicago Board of Trade for hedging purposes.

Our storage capabilities allow us to condition and store grains with no third-party involvement and thus to capitalize the fluctuations in the price of commodities. Our largest storage facilities, with capacity for 10,000 tons, are located in “Las Vertientes”, close to Río Cuarto, Province of Córdoba. In addition, we store grains in silo bags.

Beef Cattle

We have several marketing channels. We sell directly to local meat processors and supermarkets, as well as in markets and auctions. Our customers include Arre Beef S.A., Quickfood S.A., Finexcor S.A., Frigorífico La Pellegrinense S.A., Friar S.A., Madelan S.A., Exportaciones Agroindustriales S.A., Jumbo Retail Argentina S.A., Frigorífico Bermejo S.A. and Frigorífico Amancay S.A., at prices based on the price at Liniers Market.

We usually are responsible for the costs of the freight to the market and, in general, we do not pay commissions on our transactions.

Raw Materials

The current direct cost of our production of grains varies in relation to each crop and normally includes the following costs: tillage, seeds, agrochemicals and fertilizers. We buy in bulk and store seeds, agrochemicals and fertilizers to benefit from discounts offered during off-season sales.

Competition

The agricultural and livestock sector is highly competitive with a huge number of producers. We are one of Argentina’s leading producers. However, if we compare the percentage of our production to the country’s total figures, our production would appear as extremely low, since the agricultural market is highly atomized. Our leading position improves our bargaining power with suppliers and customers. In general, we obtain discounts in the region in the acquisition of raw materials and an excess price in our sales.

Historically, there have been few companies competing for the acquisition and leases of farmlands for the purpose of benefiting from land appreciation and optimization of yields in the different commercial activities. However, we anticipate the possibility that new companies, some of them international, may become active players in the acquisition of farmlands and the leases of sown land, which would add players to the market in coming years.

Seasonality

As is the case with any company in the agro-industrial sector, our business activities are inherently seasonal. Harvest and sales of grains (corn, soybean and sunflower) in general take place from February to June. Wheat is harvested from December to January. With respect to our international market, in Bolivia climate conditions allow a double season of soybean, corn and sorghum production and, accordingly, these crops are harvested in April and October, while wheat and sunflower are harvested during August and September, respectively. Other segments of our activities, such as our sales of cattle and milk and our forestry activities tend to be more of a successive character than of a seasonal character. However, the production of beef and milk is generally higher during the second quarter, when pasture conditions are more favorable. In consequence, there may be significant variations in results from one quarter to the other.

DEVELOPMENT OF MARGINAL AREAS

We consider that there is great potential in the development of marginal areas where, through the use of current technology, we may achieve similar yields with higher profitability than in core areas.

As of June 30, 2010, we owned land reserves extending over more than 229,105 hectares that were purchased at very attractive prices. In addition, we have a concession over 114,048 hectares reserved for future development. We believe that there are technological tools available to improve productivity in these farms and, therefore, achieve appreciation in the long term. However, current or future environmental regulations could prevent us from fully developing our land reserves by requiring that we maintain part of this land as natural woodlands not to be used for production purposes. In Salta and Paraguay we allocated almost 17,000 hectares to agricultural production in the past year, which we expect to increase to approximately 27,000 in the next season. In addition, in those areas we expect to develop 15,000 additional hectares that will be put into operation as from 2012.

During fiscal year 2010, we continued with the development of our “Los Pozos” farm located in the Province of Salta. As of June 30, 2009, the number of hectares of sown pastures totaled approximately 62,000, 50,000 of which were available for beef cattle production. During fiscal year 2010, 3,231 hectares were used for agricultural production. which we expect to increase to 7,500 in the next season. In addition, we seek to develop a further 4,800 hectares intended for agriculture and 7,000 additional hectares intended for beef cattle to be put into production in 2012.

Furthermore, during fiscal year 2010 we continued with the development of Agropecuaria Anta S.A. (formerly named Agropecuaria Cervera S.A.), reaching 10,816 hectares devoted to our own production and 7,136 hectares leased to third parties. For the next fiscal year, we intend to use 13,400 hectares for agriculture and to maintain the same number of hectares leased to third parties, and we expect to develop 4,800 additional hectares to be put into production in 2012.

In connection with our business in Paraguay, during fiscal year 2010 Cresca S.A. made progress in the development of its farms, planting 2,834 hectares and developing another 3,000. For the next fiscal year, Cresca plans to continue to develop new hectares for crop production and intensive cattle breeding in its farms located in Paraguay, where it seeks to put into operation 3,000 additional hectares that had been already developed in the last fiscal year, and to develop a further 6,000 hectares intended to become operational in 2012.

INTERNATIONAL EXPANSION

BrasilAgro Companhia Brasileira de Propriedades Agrícolas

BrasilAgro was created in September 2005 in order to replicate our business in Brazil. BrasilAgro is engaged mainly in four business segments: (i) sugar cane, (ii) grains and cotton, (iii) forestry activities, (iv) livestock.

We created BrasilAgro together with our partners, Cape Town Llc, Tarpon Investimentos S.A., Tarpon Agro Llc, Agro Investments S.A. and Agro Managers S.A.

Cape Town Llc is a limited company incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, wholly owned by Mr. Elie Horn, the controlling shareholder and chief executive officer of Cyrela Brazil Realty, S.A. Empreendimentos e Participações. Tarpon Investimentos S.A. is an independent Brazilian asset manager engaged in the management of mutual funds focusing primarily on Brazilian equities. Tarpon Agro Llc is a company incorporated in the United States of America under the laws of the State of Delaware, and is owned by Tarpon Investimentos S.A.’s shareholders and certain of its affiliates.

Part of the knowledge and experience required to implement BrasilAgro’s proposed business plan will be initially provided pursuant to a consulting agreement with Paraná Consultora do Investimentos S.A., a special purpose advisory company, 50% owned by Tarpon BR, 37.5% owned by Consultores Assets Management, a company controlled by Mr. Eduardo Elsztain, and 12.5% owned by Mr. Alejandro Elsztain. Tarpon BR is a joint venture between Tarpon and Mr. Elie Horn.

We entered into a shareholder agreement with Tarpon Investimentos S.A. and Tarpon Agro Llc stipulating, among other things, that both parties will have a joint vote at shareholders’ meetings and that both parties will have a preemptive right to acquire shares of the other party.

BrasilAgro’s board of directors is composed of nine members. We, as founder of BrasilAgro, appointed three members. Tarpon and Cape Town appointed three more members and, in addition, BrasilAgro has three independent directors.

On May 2, 2006, BrasilAgro’s shares were listed in the Novo Mercado of the Brazilian Stock Exchange (BOVESPA) with the symbol AGRO3. BrasilAgro’s shares were placed jointly with Banco de Investimentos Credit Suisse (Brazil) S.A. in the Brazilian market through investment mechanisms regulated by controlling authorities and with sales efforts pursuant to an exception from registration under the US Securities Act of 1933. The amount originally offered was Reais 532 million, equivalent to 532,000 book-entry common shares at a price of Reais 1,000 per share of BrasilAgro.

In addition, as is customary in the Brazilian market, BrasilAgro had an option to increase the size of the issue by 20% and Banco de Investimentos Credit Suisse (Brazil) S.A. had another option to increase it by 15% (Green shoe). Given the high demand shown by the placement, both BrasilAgro and Banco de Investimentos Credit Suisse (Brazil) S.A. exercised such options increasing the placement up to 583,200 shares equivalent to Reais 583.2 million, which were fully placed and paid in.

In addition to the funds we originally contributed, we purchased shares in the offering for Reais 42.4 million (approximately US$ 20.6 million). Following such contribution we held a total amount of 42,705 shares, equivalent to 7.4% of BrasilAgro’s capital stock.

On October 31, 2007, BrasilAgro carried out a 1-for-100 share split approved at the Special Shareholders’ Meeting held on March 15, 2007 and ratified at the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting held on October 29, 2007. Following this split, BrasilAgro’s capital stock was composed of 58,422,400 common shares.

During fiscal years 2008, 2009 and 2010, the Company acquired, respectively, 4,136,800, 2,776,000 and 2,395,400 shares of BrasilAgro. Due to this acquisition, we owned a 23.24% interest as of June 30, 2010.

When we founded BrasilAgro, we contributed Ps.63.1 million in cash in exchange for shares and 10,490,200 warrants to purchase additional BrasilAgro shares for 15 years and at the same price as was established in the initial public offering, Reais 10, adjusted by the Consumer Price Index Amplified, or IPCA. Should we decide to exercise such warrants, we might acquire, following the share split, 5,984,987 additional shares, thereby holding 26.79% of BrasilAgro’s diluted capital stock. All of these warrants may already be exercised.

In addition, we received, at no cost, a second series of warrants for a total of 10,490,200, which may only be exercised at our discretion in the event of a tender offer. The exercise price of these warrants shall be the same price as the price offered in any such tender offer by the acquirer of BrasilAgro. The second series of warrants matures in the year 2021.

On April 28, 2010 we entered into an agreement with TARPON AGRO LLC (“Tarpon”), whereby upon satisfaction of certain conditions Tarpon will transfer the following securities to Cresud for valuable consideration:

(b)

6,400,000 First Issue Warrants of BrasilAgro and 6,400,000 Second Issue Warrants of BrasilAgro.

Upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the agreement, effective transfer of the shares and warrants from Tarpon to Cresud shall occur within ten (10) days following the implementation of the ADR program that BrasilAgro has planned to launch.

The total price payable by Cresud to Tarpon will be R$131,419,876 (approximately US$ 76.1 million) payable within 180 days after the effective transfer of the above mentioned shares and warrants. If the price is paid within the agreed term, it shall not be subject to any monetary restatement whatsoever.

It should be noted that notwithstanding Tarpon’s withdrawal from the “BrasilAgro Project”, the shareholders Mr. Elie Horn and the representatives of the company Cape Town LLC have expressed their interest to remain in BrasilAgro together with Cresud.

On May 5, the directors resolved to launch the Level I ADR Program. The Program’s underlying securities will be the Company’s common shares, at a rate of 1 ADR per common share. The Bank of New York Mellon will act as issuer and/or depositary bank, whereas Itaú Unibanco S.A. will act as depositary bank.

As of June 30, 2010, BrasilAgro had 9 properties, with an aggregate surface area of 174,840 hectares, acquired at highly attractive prices as compared to the average in the respective regions, all of which offering high appreciation potential.

(1)	The Jatobá farm is owned by Jaborandi S.A., in which BrasilAgro holds a 90% interest

Sao Pedro is a farm in Chapadao do Sul (MS). With a surface area of 2,443 hectares, Sao Pedro was bought for R$ 9.9 million. Its potential production area is 1,700 hectares. In this farm, BrasilAgro has harvested winter crops in a surface area of 594 hectares and has started arrangements to plant soybean and corn in the 2010/11 season. In our opinion, this land offers high potential for appreciation as a result of the sugar cane premises scheduled to be installed in the region.

Cremaq is a farm in Baixa Grande do Ribeiro (Piaui). Acquired for R$ 42.2 million and with a surface area of 32,375 hectares, it is estimated that the total production area will be 23,000 hectares. The farm is close to the Itaqui Port and to the Norte-Sul railway. Weather and topographic conditions in the area are quite suited to soybean, corn and cotton crops. This property has also been bought for a value lower than average in the region and it offers major appreciation potential. BrasilAgro completed the harvest of summer soybean, corn, sorghum and rice. Part of the production was not sold and remains stored in the new silo built in the farm (with a 72,000 ton capacity), which was highly favorable as regional prices for soybean increased 30% since the end of the harvest. At present, arrangements have started to plant soybean, corn and rice for the 2010/11 season.

Jatobá is a farm in the Jaborandi district, in the State of Bahía. The acquisition price was R$ 35.4 million and it has 31,603 hectares. It is estimated that the total production area will be 24,600 hectares. BrasilAgro has harvested summer crops and has started arrangements for planting soybean and corn in 2010/2011. 600 hectares of this property were leased to third parties.

Alto Taquarí is an estancia with a total area of 5,266 hectares and it is located in the municipality of Alto Taquarí, Mato Grosso. This property was purchased for R$ 34 million, payable in two installments. The first installment of R$ 6.8 million was paid on August 3, 2007, and a portion of the second installment of R$ 12.3 million was paid in April 2008. In September 2008, R$ 2.6 million were paid for the second installment. The payment of the balance due is subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions by the seller. This property has an estimated production area of 3,720 hectares, and harvesting of sugar cane over an area of 3,673 hectares has started. Alto Taquarí executed an agreement with ETH Bioenergía for supplying sugar cane during two full cycles (6 harvesting years, including 5 harvests) which started in the last quarter.

Araucária is an estancia which has a total area of 15,543 hectares, 11,657 of which are owned by BrasilAgro, and is located in the municipality of Mineiros, Goiás. The production area is estimated at 8,435 hectares. BrasilAgro has harvested winter crops in an area of 688 hectares and has started preparing the planting of soybean for the 2010/2011 season. In addition, BrasilAgro has planted 4,973 hectares of sugar cane and has leased 194 hectares of this property to third parties. Araucária executed an agreement with ETH Bioenergía for supplying sugar cane during two full cycles (6 harvesting years, including 5 harvests) which started in the last quarter.

Chaparral is a farm located in Correntina, Bahía. This farm has a surface area of 37,799 hectares and was purchased for R$ 47.1 million. Its potential production area is 28,000 hectares and BrasilAgro has completed the harvest of soybean and started preparation works for the 2010/211 season.

Nova Buriti is an estancia with a total surface area of 24,185 hectares and it is located in the municipality of Januaria, Minas Gerais. With a production area estimated at 19,935 hectares, it will be used for forestry activities. At present, BrasilAgro is awaiting the licenses required to start operating this farm.

Preferencia is a 16,830-hectare farm located in the municipality of Barreiras, Bahía. The purchase transaction was closed in September 2008 and it was agreed for a price of R$ 600.0 per hectare. This property has good conditions for cattle breeding and crops growing. The company has started rolling out a beef cattle project.

In March 2010, BrasilAgro consummated the acquisition of 14,358 hectares of the Horizontina farm, located in the municipality of Tasso Fragoso, Maranhão. The agreed transaction price was R$ 37.0 million. This property has good conditions for crops growing.

During fiscal year 2010, BrasilAgro expanded its sown area (summer and winter season and sugar cane) by 38% compared to the previous period, reaching 46,100 hectares (including 43,489 hectares under own management and 2,600 hectares leased to third parties). In addition, during this fiscal year BrasilAgro developed 17,916 new hectares.

BrasilAgro started to harvest the sugar cane planted in the Alto Taquarí and Araucária farms, under the agreement entered into with ETH Bioenergía for two full cycles (6 harvesting years including 5 harvests). BrasilAgro’s revenues from the sale of crops were R$ 31.6 million, 12% lower than those recorded in the previous fiscal year. It recorded a net loss of R$ 15.8 million compared to a profit of R$ 1.0 million during the same period of the previous fiscal year. This reflects the adverse weather conditions and the fact that as of the closing date the full production had not been sold yet, as part of it had been stored in a new silo located in the Cremaq establishment, with a storage capacity of 72,000 tons. Soybean prices in the region have increased 30% since the end of the harvest.

At the end of fiscal year 2010, BrasilAgro presented consolidated assets for R$ 733.8 million, of which R$ 206.2 million were included in the Cash and banks, and Short-term investments accounts.

In addition, during fiscal period 2010, different governmental agencies disbursed over R$ 60.0 million as short and long-term financing.

BrasilAgro will continue to focus its activities on agricultural real estate and on the development of its four main business lines: sugar cane; crops and cotton; forestry and cattle breeding. Since its start of operations in 2006, BrasilAgro’s sown area has recorded an annual average growth of 45%. For the next season, BrasilAgro expects to plant approximately 65,000 hectares and to develop approximately 20,000 additional hectares.

Paraguay

In the context of operations that represent a new expansion of Cresud’s agricultural business in South America, in September 2008, the Company entered into several agreements to carry out real estate and agricultural, livestock and forestry activities in the Republic of Paraguay. Under these agreements, a new corporation was organized together with Carlos Casado S.A. under the name Cresca S.A., in which Cresud holds a 50% interest and acts in a capacity of advisor for the

agricultural, livestock and forestry development of a rural property of 41,931 hectares, and of a potential area of up to 100,000 hectares located in Paraguay derived from the exercise of an option.

In connection with the above mentioned rural property, Cresud executed a preliminary agreement to purchase a 50% interest in such rural property located in Mariscal José Felix Estigarribia, Department of Boquerón, Chaco Paraguayo, Republic of Paraguay, owned by Carlos Casado S.A., for a price of US$ 5.2 million, in order to contribute them to the new company recently organized (Cresca S.A.). The contribution was made on January 26, 2009, and the title deed to the property was executed on February 3, 2009. Therefore, jointly with the contribution made by Carlos Casado S.A., the total value of the contributions made in Cresca S.A. is US$ 10.5 million. In addition, as indicated in the previous paragraph, Cresca has an option granted by Carlos Casado S.A. for the purchase of 100,000 additional hectares located in Paraguay.

In relation to the development of marginal areas, Cresca started planting activities in approximately 3,000 hectares developed at the first stage and started developing approximately 3,000 hectares at the second stage, which are expected to be completed in the course of this calendar year, and will start to be productive in fiscal year 2011, adding more lands intended for agricultural production.

On March 19, 2010 the option agreed under the agreement dated September 3, 2008 (Call Option Agreement) was partially exercised, whereby 3,614 hectares, valued at US$ 350 each, were transferred to Cresca S.A.

Finally, on June 29, 2010, the title deed was executed, involving the conveyance of 3,646 hectares.

Bolivia

In the framework of a series of transactions that represent a new expansion of the Company’s agribusiness operations in South America in line with its business plan, Cresud has organized companies that own land in the Republic of Bolivia through its controlled companies Agrology S.A., Inversiones Ganaderas S.A. and Agropecuaria Anta S.A. (formerly, Agropecuaria Cervera S.A.) and has acquired a company in the Republic of Uruguay.

Thus, the following companies were incorporated:

Agropecuaria Acres del Sud S.A., Aguaribay Agropecuaria S.A., Calden Agropecuaria S.A., Itin Agropecuaria S.A., Ñandubay Agropecuaria S.A., Ombú Agropecuaria S.A., Yatay Agropecuaria S.A and Yuchan Agropecuaria S.A. whose shareholders are: (i) Agrology S.A. with a 95.12% shareholding, (ii) Inversiones Ganaderas S.A. and (iii) Agropecuaria Anta S.A. with a 2.44 % stake each. The preceding Bolivia-based companies (except for Agropecuaria Acres del Sud S.A.) acquired land for agricultural operations. This way, Cresud maintains a 100.00% ownership interest in the capital stock of those companies, all engaged in agricultural operations.

In addition, during October 2008, the Company acquired, through its controlled company Agrology S.A., a 100 % shareholding in a company named Helmir S.A., domiciled in the Republic of Uruguay and set up with a broad-ranging corporate purpose.

In line with its international expansion strategy, Cresud has entered into a number of agreements to formalize its position in various South American countries. In July 2008, the Company, acting through various companies, executed several bills of purchase for an aggregate of 12,166 hectares in the Republic of Bolivia for a total price of US$ 28.9 million.

In connection with these lands, on November 20, 2008, two purchase instruments including delivery of possession were executed, as part of the process of casting into public deed and filing of deeds with the relevant registries, involving the purchase of 883, 2,969 and 3,748 hectares in “San Cayetano”, “San Rafael” and “La Fon Fon” farms, respectively, located in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. We have already paid 43% of the agreed price of US$ 17.5 million. The remaining balance was payable in two annual installments: the first one was paid during the 2010 fiscal period, and the second one is payable in fiscal year 2011.

As concerns the remaining hectares, on January 22, 2009, we executed a deed of purchase for 4,566 hectares in “Las Londras” farm, located in the Province of Guarayos, Bolivia. On that date, the sum of US$ 3.8 million was paid, representing 42.9% of the total agreed price. The remaining balance was payable in two annual installments: the first one was paid during the 2010 fiscal period, and the second one is payable in fiscal year 2011.

During fiscal year 2010, 10,800 hectares of the farms located in Bolivia were sown. This region has traditionally achieved double harvesting of soybean, which means that better results can be obtained per hectare during a single season; yet, the weather conditions that prevailed during the last year have not allowed double harvesting.

EQUITY INVESTEES

Agropecuaria Anta S.A. (formerly named Agropecuaria Cervera S.A.)

On December 27, 2005, we and Inversiones Ganaderas S.A. (solely as nominee for Argentine legal purposes) acquired 100% of the shares of Agropecuaria Anta S.A. (“Agropecuaria Anta”), whose main asset is the concession for the start-up of production pertaining to a comprehensive biological, economic and social development project over various properties located in Anta, Province of Salta, and which is duly authorized to implement a large-scale project covering agricultural, cattle breeding and forestry activities. The concession agreement covers 162,000 hectares for a 35-year period with an option to extend it for an additional 29-year period. In the framework of the concession, there is a development project aimed at applying 35,000 hectares to agricultural use and 55,000 hectares to livestock activities, which has been approved by the Secretariat of Environment and Sustainable Development of the Province of Salta. We surrendered 3.6 million convertible notes of IRSA and paid Ps.3.17 million in cash for the acquisition of the concession. During fiscal year 2008, Agropecuaria Anta S.A. commenced its land development activities, and as of June 30, 2010, it had 10,816 hectares devoted to its own production and 7,132 hectares leased to third parties.

On July 2, 2008, a memorandum of agreement was entered into under which the concession agreement for the northern region and the southern region of the properties of Salta Forestal S.A. was renegotiated. Under the above mentioned memorandum of agreement, the Company agreed to reduce the area under concession by returning 30,000 hectares, the location of which will be defined in a sketch to be mutually agreed between the parties. Under the same contract the annual fee was renegotiated in an amount in US$ equivalent to one soybean quintal per harvested hectare of any crops, to be paid up to July 1 each year as from 2009. On August 29, 2008, the Executive Branch of Salta approved the memorandum of agreement through decree No. 3,766. Consequently, the provisions of the memorandum of agreement are effective as from that date.

Futuros y Opciones.Com S.A.

In May 2000, we acquired 70% of the shares of F y O S.A. (“Futuros y Opciones.Com”) for Ps.3.5 million. The site was launched in November 1999 and is aimed at becoming the most important agriculture business community in Latin America. Futuros y Opciones.Com launched its e-commerce strategy in March 2001, in order to sell products, buy inputs, arrange loans, and obtain insurance, among other things. Currently, the main activity of Futuros y Opciones.Com is the grain brokerage.

The areas with the greatest potential for growth are: input commercialization, grain brokerage and beef cattle operations. Regarding input commercialization, the business volume was concentrated in a small number of suppliers, the agreements with the suppliers were improved in order to increase the margin of the business, and contracts of direct distribution were achieved. In terms of grains, the brokerage department was created, with the purpose of participating directly in the business by trading and offering services. In beef cattle, Futuros y Opciones.Com has created an alliance with a leading broker in the sector, which will allow it to obtain use of its clients’ database and technological knowledge.

During fiscal year 2007, Futuros y Opciones.Com started to trade futures and options: it acquired a share in the Buenos Aires futures and options exchange market (Mercado a Término de Buenos Aires) and has also become a dealer. During fiscal years 2008 and 2009, Futuros y Opciones.Com continued trading futures and options with a 7.67% and 23.8% growth, respectively, as compared to the previous year. The service consisting in hedging with futures has consolidated into an essential tool for our customers to manage their price risks.

As of June 30, 2010, Futuros y Opciones.Com total revenues increased by 61.95% compared to the previous fiscal year, with 8.27% growth in the revenues yielded by its main business, grains brokerage. In addition, the business consisting in sales of inputs grew by 99.48%, while revenues from commissions from the same business rose 200.99% and technology services commissions increased by 35.13%.

The grain business strengthened, reaching the number of tons agreed during the fiscal year. On the side of revenues, invoicing percentages over total tons agreed decreased compared to the previous year, given that year 2009, which was taken as basis, was signaled by the transfer of invoices caused by the agricultural stoppage of the previous season.

The increase in the input business was motivated by the significant impact suffered in the previous fiscal year by the severe drought that affected Argentina, along with the drop in prices, which forced Argentine producers to reduce input investments in the 2008/2009 season. During this season the situation was reverted and the targets set for this year were met.

The portal fyo.com has reached its tenth anniversary, consolidating as the benchmark site for agricultural marketing and adding year after year new and significant agricultural customers of various sizes to its user community. The site has a base of 55,000 registered users who make 60,000 unique visits per month, showing a highly satisfactory site stay time and contributing to the exchange of farming matters among an entire recognized community of producers from Argentina and neighboring countries.

Futuros y Opciones.Com’s goal is to become a leading company in the supply of financial and commercial services. To attain such objective, we will continue to enhance the range of products we offer to the sector in the coming fiscal years.

At June 30, 2010, the Company held a 64.30% interest in Futuros y Opciones.Com.

Cactus Argentina S.A.

Cactus was initially a joint venture between us and Cactus Feeders Inc., one of the largest feedlot companies in the United States. The site of the venture’s operations is a 170-hectare farm in Villa Mercedes, in the Province of San Luis. The feedlot began operations in September 1999.

During fiscal year 2007, Cactus entered into a joint venture with Tyson Foods, Inc (“Tyson”), a leading meat processing company, pursuant to which Tyson, through Provemex Holdings LLC, acquired a 52% equity interest in Cactus to establish the first integrated cattle operation in Argentina. Consequently, the stock holdings of Cactus Feeders, Inc. and Cresud in Cactus were reduced to 24% each. Since December 31, 2006, we no longer use the proportional consolidation method to account for our investment in Cactus due to the reduction of our equity interest in Cactus from 50% to 24%.

On January 11, 2007, Cactus and us (solely as nominee for Argentine legal purposes) acquired 100% of the Exportaciones Agroindustriales Argentinas S.A. (“EAASA”) shares for Ps.16.8 million. EAASA owns a meat packing plant in Santa Rosa, Province of La Pampa, with capacity to slaughter and process approximately 9,500 cattle heads per month. Cactus has been a pioneer in feedlot services with a 25,000 heads of cattle capacity, depending on the size of the cattle. Cactus’ customer base changed during recent years, as many companies related to the beef sector bought calves to be fed at the feedlot. To assure themselves a constant supply of high quality beef, these companies keep an inventory of cattle on feed.

The feedlot cattle beef production is processed in the Exportaciones Agroindustriales Argentina S.A. packing plant for the domestic and foreign markets. Feedlot fattening with a corn-based diet has been growing at a very dynamic pace. The company has gained market reputation thanks to the uniform final product offered by feedlot-finished animals, which provides purchasers with high-quality products and higher yields, succeeding in offering differential sales prices. Cactus continues to receive cattle from farmers that repeat their productive process whereby they breed and re-breed their animals in their own farms and slaughter them at Cactus.

On June 30, 2009, we entered into a shareholders’ agreement with Cactus Feeders for the purchase of its 24% interest in Cactus Argentina S.A. and 0.24% interest in EAASA. The agreed purchase price was US$ 2.4 million. At the same time, our Company and Tyson Foods S.A. made contributions to Cactus Argentina S.A. in the amount of US$ 2.4 million and US$ 2.6 million, respectively. As a consequence of the transaction, we increased our interest in Cactus to 48%. The companies have strengthened as a result of the above mentioned capitalizations, which will help develop our strategic business plan in the cattle beef processing industry.

The decrease in supply has adversely affected the value chain by reducing cold-storage plant utilization, which in turn has left several plants struggling to remain operational in view of the poor returns and shortage of raw materials. Our investment in EAASA has not escaped unscathed and we are assessing our alternatives looking forward.

AgroUranga S.A.

We have a 35.7% interest in AgroUranga S.A. This company maximizes the use of production processes and has obtained excellent results, with special emphasis in soil conservation, the application of rational techniques and care of the environment.

AgroUranga S.A. has two farms: Las Playas and San Nicolás, with a combined area of 8,305 hectares, located in the core region of the Pampas prairies.

40% of the revenues from AgroUranga’s crop production derives from its special products division, including popcorn, chickpea, peas and lentils, whereas the remaining 60% derives from commodities.

At present, with the assistance of its foreign trade team it is seeking to add new products so as to significantly increase export volumes, encouraged by the growing demand.

For fiscal year 2010, our subsidiary IRSA had revenues from Offices and other non-shopping center rental properties of Ps. 154.2 million.

All of IRSA’s office rental properties in Argentina are located in Buenos Aires City. For the year ended June 30, 2010, the average occupancy rate for all properties in the Offices and other non-shopping center rental properties segment was approximately 82.0%. Seven different tenants accounted for approximately 44.0% of the total revenues from office rentals for fiscal year 2010: Exxon Mobile Business, Price Waterhouse, Grupo Total Austral, Apache Energía Argentina, Microsoft de Argentina S.A., Sibille S.C. (KPMG), and Grupo Danone Argentina.

Management. Our subsidiary IRSA generally acts as the managing agent of the office properties in which it owns an interest. These interests consist primarily of the ownership of entire buildings or a substantial number of floors in a building. The buildings in which it owns floors are generally managed pursuant to the terms of a condominium agreement that typically provides for control by a simple majority of the interests (based on the area owned) in the building. As the managing agent of operations, it is responsible for handling services, such as security, maintenance and housekeeping. These services are generally contracted to third party providers. The cost of the services are passed-through and paid for by the tenants, except in the case of its units not rented, in which case IRSA absorbs the cost. Leaseable space is marketed through commissioned brokers, the media and directly by it.

Leases. Our subsidiary IRSA leases its offices and other properties by using contracts with an average term of three years, with the exception of a few contracts with terms of five years. These contracts are renewable for two or three years at the tenant’s option. Contracts for the rental of office buildings and other commercial properties are generally stated in U.S. dollars, and in accordance with Argentine law they are not subject to inflation adjustment. Rental rates for renewed periods are negotiated at market value.

Shopping Centers

We are engaged in purchasing, developing and managing shopping centers through our subsidiary, Alto Palermo. As of June 30, 2010, Alto Palermo operated and owned majority interests in eleven shopping centers, six of which are located in the City of Buenos Aires (Abasto, Paseo Alcorta, Alto Palermo, Patio Bullrich, Buenos Aires Design and Dot Baires Shopping), one of which is located in the greater Buenos Aires (Alto Avellaneda) metropolitan area and the other four of which are located in the Argentine provinces: Alto Noa in the City of Salta, Alto Rosario in the City of Rosario, Mendoza Plaza in the City of Mendoza and Córdoba Shopping Villa Cabrera in the City of Córdoba.

As of June 30, 2010, we owned 63.35% of Alto Palermo and Parque Arauco S.A. owned 29.55%. The remaining shares are held by the investor public and traded on the Bolsa de Comercio de Buenos Aires and the related GDSs are listed and traded on the Nasdaq National Market (USA) under the symbol “APSA.” In addition, as of June 30, 2010, we owned US$31.7 million of Alto Palermo’s convertible notes due July 2014. If we, and all the other holders of such convertible Notes were to exercise their options to convert the convertible notes into shares of Alto Palermo’s common stock, our shareholding in Alto Palermo would increase to 65.9% of its fully diluted capital.

On January 14, 2010, we announced that Parque Arauco S.A. granted to us an option to purchase its 29.55% interest in Alto Palermo (including its direct and indirect interest in Convertible Notes for a principal amount of US$ 15.5 million issued by Alto Palermo), for a total amount of US$ 126 million. The option grants us the right to exercise it until August 31, 2010, extendable to November 30 of this year, under certain conditions. At the time of execution of the option, we made an initial payment of US$ 6.0 million, which is allocated to the purchase. If we do no exercise the option within the scheduled term, the deposit of US$ 6.0 million will not be reimbursed to us. The perfection of this transaction is subject to the negotiation and execution of the final documentation.

As of the date of issuance of these financial statements, we and Parque Arauco S.A. continue to finalize the legal and business structure that will support the referred option to purchase and we have agreed to extent the option’s exercise date to September 21, 2010.

As of June 30, 2010, Alto Palermo’s shopping centers comprised a total of 283,286 square meters of gross leaseable area (excluding certain space occupied by hypermarkets which are not Alto Palermo’s tenants). For fiscal period 2010, the average occupancy rate of Alto Palermo’s shopping center portfolio was approximately 98.0%.

As a result of our acquisition of several shopping centers, we centralized management of our shopping centers in Alto Palermo, which is responsible for providing common area electrical power, a main telephone switchboard, central air conditioning and other basic common area services.

The following table shows certain information concerning our Alto Palermo subsidiary’s shopping centers as of June 30, 2010:

Principal Terms of the Leases

Under Argentine Law, terms of commercial leases must be between three to ten years, with most leases in the shopping center business having terms of no more than five years. Alto Palermo’s lease agreements are generally denominated in Pesos.

Leaseable space in Alto Palermo’s shopping centers is marketed through an exclusive arrangement with its real estate brokers, Fibesa S.A. (“Fibesa”) and Comercializadora Los Altos S.A. (merged with Fibesa S.A. as of July 1, 2009). Alto Palermo has a standard lease agreement, the terms and conditions of which are described below, which we use for most tenants. However, Alto Palermo’s largest tenants generally negotiate better terms for their respective leases. No assurance can be given that lease terms will be as set forth in the standard lease agreement.

Alto Palermo charges its tenants a rent which consists of the higher of (i) a monthly base rent (the “Base Rent”) and (ii) a specified percentage of the tenant’s monthly gross sales in the store (the “Percentage Rent”) (which generally ranges between 4% and 8% of tenant’s gross sales). Furthermore, pursuant to the rent escalation clause in most leases, a tenant’s Base Rent generally increases between 7% and 12% each year on an annual and cumulative basis as from the thirteenth (13^th) month of the lease effective term. Although many of our lease agreements contain readjustment clauses, these are not based on an official index nor do they reflect the inflation index. In the event of litigation, no assurance can be given that Alto Palermo may be able to enforce such clauses contained in its lease agreements. See “Risk Factors” for a detailed analysis.

In addition to rent, Alto Palermo charges most of its tenants an admission fee, which is required to be paid upon entering into a lease agreement and upon a lease agreement renewal, which is negotiated with each of the tenants. The admission fee is normally paid in one lump sum or in a small number of monthly installments. If the tenant pays this fee in installments, it is the tenant’s responsibility to pay for the balance of any such amount unpaid in the event the tenant terminates its lease prior to its expiration. In the event of unilateral termination and/or resolution for breach of duties by the tenant, a tenant will not be refunded its admission right without Alto Palermo’s consent.

Alto Palermo is responsible for supplying each shopping center with the electrical power connection and provision, a main telephone switchboard, central air conditioning connection and a connection to a general fire detection system. Each rental unit is connected to these systems. Alto Palermo also provides the food court tenants with sanitation and with gas systems connections. Each tenant is responsible for completing all the necessary installations within its own rental unit, in addition to the direct expenses generated by these items within each rental unit. These direct expenses generally include: electricity, water, gas, telephone and air conditioning. Tenants must also pay for a percentage of total charges and general taxes related to the maintenance of the common areas. Alto Palermo determines this percentage based on several factors. The common area expenses include, among others, administration, security, operations, maintenance, cleaning and taxes.

Alto Palermo carries out promotional and marketing activities to increase attendance to its shopping centers. These activities are paid for with the tenants’ contributions to the Common Promotional Fund (“CPF”), which is administered by Alto Palermo. Every month tenants contribute to the CPF an amount equal to approximately 15% of their rent (Base Rent or Percentage Rent, as applicable), in addition to rent and expense payments. Alto Palermo may increase the percentage that tenants must contribute to the CPF, but the increase cannot exceed 25% of the original amount set forth in the corresponding lease agreement for the contributions to the CPF. Alto Palermo also may require tenants to make extraordinary contributions to the CPF to fund special promotional and marketing campaigns or to cover the costs of special promotional events that benefit all tenants. We may require tenants to make these extraordinary contributions up to four times a year provided that each such extraordinary contribution may not exceed 25% of the preceding monthly rental payment of the tenant.

Each tenant leases its rental unit as a shell without any fixtures. Each tenant is responsible for the interior design of its rental unit. Any modifications and additions to the rental units must be pre-approved by Alto Palermo. Alto Palermo has the option to decide tenants’ responsibility for all costs incurred in remodeling the rental units or for removing any additions made to the rental unit when the lease expires. Furthermore, tenants are responsible for obtaining adequate insurance for their rental units, which must include, among other things, coverage for fire, glass breakage, theft, flood, civil liability and workers’ compensation.

Tarshop

Through its subsidiaries, Tarshop and Metroshop, in which APSA owns a 100% and 50% interest, respectively, we are engaged in consumer financing operations. During fiscal year 2010, APSA executed an agreement to sell its 80% interest in Tarshop to Banco Hipotecario. On August 30, 2010, the Argentine Central Bank gave notice to Banco Hipotecario of the transaction’s approval, with the closing thereof being still pending. On may 21, 2010 and as part of the referred agreement, Alto Palermo S.A. (APSA) and Tarshop S.A. executed an agreement that perfected the transfer of shares, whereby Tarshop S.A. sold to APSA 18,400,000 non-endorsable registered Class A shares of Ps. 1 each and entitled to one vote per Class “A” share, representative of 50% of Metroshop S.A.’s capital stock.

Basically, two major instruments represent the Argentine consumer financing market: credit cards and unsecured loans, both in cash and through consumption financing at retail stores. These two modalities entail the involvement of two types of entities: those regulated by the Law of Financial Institutions (Law No. 21,526) that include banks and financial institutions and unregulated institutions, such as Tarshop.

In turn, Tarshop’s business structure includes (i) Credit Cards, (ii) Unsecured Loans, (iii) Consumer Financing at Retail Stores and (iv) Peripherals. As regards the Credit Card segment that does business as “Tarjeta Shopping”, Tarshop is responsible for issuance, processing and sales which in turn affords the company the advantage of being flexible in the design of plans that meet the needs of both target customers and the retail stores that operate with the company.

As of June 30, 2010, Tarshop had 872,000 customer accounts, 347,000 of which posted balances, with an average outstanding amount of Ps. 1,727 per account. The total portfolio amounted to Ps. 884.3 million, with 42.4% being securitized through the Tarjeta Shopping Financial Trust Program.

The loan portfolio, net of write-offs and including securitized coupons as of June 30, 2010 stood at Ps. 608.0 million, 2.9% less than the Ps. 627.0 million portfolio as of June 30, 2009.

Tarshop’s current business network is made up by 23 points of sale scattered throughout the City of Buenos Aires, Greater Buenos Aires, Córdoba, Tucumán, Salta and Jujuy. As of June 30, 2010, the retail stores that accept payments through the Tarshop credit card were more than 50,000, 30.2% of which post transactions on a regular basis. On the whole, more than 6.2 million transactions have been posted during the year mentioned.

(i)

As regards collections, loans overdue for periods ranging from 90 to 180 days as of June 30, 2010 stood at 3.1% of the portfolio net of write-offs.

On October 30, 2009, Tarshop’s Extraordinary General Shareholders’ Meeting resolved upon a capital increase through the capitalization of irrevocable capital contributions on account of future capital increases, for the amount of Ps. 105.0 million, without issue premium, and the issuance of 105,000,000 non-endorsable common registered shares of Ps. 1 par value each and entitled to one vote per share. Such amount was contributed as financial aid to Tarshop during the second quarter of fiscal year 2009, was subsequently accepted as irrevocable capital contributions. The adoption of this measure aimed at strengthening Tarshop’s balance sheet and at reinforcing its financial position in the face of the delicate situation prevailing in the financial trust market in which a part of Tarshop’s businesses are conducted and of Tarshop’s very low capitalization compared to its competitors.

In fiscal year 2010, as compared to fiscal year 2009, a change has been noted in results, passing from losses to profits, which can be explained by the decisions implemented and the improvement in capitalization combined with a relative stabilization in local financial markets, a drop in uncollectibility charges and a decrease in operating expenses. It should be noted that, during the last months of Fiscal Year 2009, a drop has been noted in comparison with previous quarters.

Sales of Development Properties and Land Reserves

Residential Development Properties

The acquisition and development of residential apartment complexes and residential communities for sale is one of our subsidiary IRSA’s core activities. Our development of residential apartment complexes consists of the new construction of high-rise towers or the conversion and renovation of existing structures such as factories and warehouses. In connection with our development of residential communities, our subsidiary IRSA frequently acquires vacant land, develops infrastructure such as roads, utilities and common areas, and sells plots of land for construction of single-family homes. It may also develop or sell portions of land for others to develop complementary facilities such as shopping areas within residential developments.

In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, revenues from our Development and sale of properties segment were Ps. 225.6 million, compared to Ps.280.4 million in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009.

Construction and renovation works on our residential development properties are currently performed, under IRSA’s supervision, by independent Argentine construction companies that are selected through a bidding process. IRSA enters into turnkey contracts with the selected company

for the construction of residential development properties pursuant to which the selected company agrees to build and deliver the development for a fixed price and at a fixed date. IRSA is generally not responsible for any additional costs based upon the turnkey contract. All other aspects of the construction, including architectural design, are performed by third parties.

Another modality for the development of residential undertakings is the exchange of land for constructed square meters. In this way, IRSA delivers undeveloped pieces of land and another firm is in charge of building the project. In this case, IRSA receives finished square meters for commercialization, without taking part in the construction works.

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, in order to strengthen our presence in the development properties segment, IRSA, together with CYRELA, a renowned Brazilian developer, created an undertaking that operates under the name IRSA-CYRELA (CYRSA) to develop top-level construction residential units in Argentina applying innovating sales and financing policies and based on a new concept in residential units in line with the latest global trends.

IRSA-CYRELA’s first project, which has been developed in a plot made up by two adjacent blocks in the Vicente López neighborhood, was launched in March under the name “Horizons”. It is one of the most significant developments in Greater Buenos Aires and it will entail a new concept in residential complexes given its emphasis on the use of common spaces. This project includes two complexes with a total of six buildings; one of them facing the river with three 14-floor buildings (the “River” complex) and the other on Avenida del Libertador with three 17-floor buildings (the “Park” complex) , totaling 59,000 sqm of constructed surface area for sale distributed in 467 units (to the exclusion of the units to be delivered in exchange for the acquisition of land). With its unique and innovating style in residential complexes, Horizons has 32 amenities, including a meeting room; a work zone; indoor swimming pools; club house and spa, sauna, gym, children room, teen room; theme-park areas; and aerobic trail, to name but a few. The showroom was opened to the public in March 2008 with immediate success. As of the date of these financial statements, preliminary sales agreements had been executed for 100% of our own units on sale, and the results will be reflected as the works make progress, consolidated at 50%.

As of June 30, 2010, the degree of progress shown by the works is about 83.16%. Their completion and delivery are estimated to take place in the year 2011.

The following table shows certain information and gives an overview regarding sales and development properties as of June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008:

Residential Apartments and Lofts

In the apartment building market, our subsidiary IRSA acquires undeveloped properties strategically located in densely populated areas of the City of Buenos Aires, particularly properties located next to shopping centers and hypermarkets or those to be constructed. It then develops multi-building high-rise complexes targeting the middle-income market. These are equipped with modern comforts and services, such as open “green areas,” swimming pools, sports and recreation facilities and 24-hour security. In the loft buildings market, its strategy is to acquire old buildings no longer in use located in areas with a significant middle and upper-income population. The properties are then renovated into unfinished lofts allowing buyers the opportunity to design and decorate them according to their preferences.

Apartment Projects Currently Under Development

Torre Caballito, City of Buenos Aires. This property, with a surface of 8,404 square meters, is situated in the northern area of Caballito’s residential neighborhood in the City of Buenos Aires. On May 4, 2006, IRSA and Koad S.A. (“Koad”), an Argentine developer, entered into an asset exchange agreement valued at US$7.5 million pursuant to which sold to Koad plot number 36 of “Terrenos de Caballito” whereby Koad S.A. has agreed to develop a residential complex called “Caballito Nuevo”, at its costs, consisting of two 34-story towers containing 220 apartments each, consisting of one, two and three bedroom residential units with surface areas ranging from 40 to 85 square meters, totaling approximately 28,000 saleable square meters. The project will offer a wide variety of amenities and services. As a result of this transaction, Koad promised to deliver to IRSA 118 apartments and 55 parking lots in the first tower, representing 25% of the total square meters for sale, expecting to conclude the construction of Tower 1 during the first semester of 2011 as well as the execution of the deeds of sale of the units involved. Accordingly, Koad granted to IRSA a first lien mortgage on the property to secure up to US$7.4 million of its obligations to IRSA and posted a surety bond in IRSA’s favor supporting an additional US$2.0 million of Koad’s obligations to the company. As of June 30, 2010, the degree of completion was 98% in Tower I. As of June 30, 2010, 61 apartments and 28 parking lots were sold for an amount of US$ 5.44 million.

Vicente López, Olivos, Province of Buenos Aires. In January, 2007, our subsidiary IRSA acquired the total shares of Rummaala S.A., the main asset of which is a plot of land located in Vicente Lopez, Province of Buenos Aires. The purchase price was US$21.17 million, payable as follows: (i) US$4.25 million in cash and (ii) through the delivery of certain units of the building to be constructed in the land owned by Rummaala in the amount of US$16.92 million, within a 4-year term as from the later of the approval date of the plans by the competent authorities or the date on which the property is vacated. As security for compliance with the construction of the future building and transfer of the future units, the shares acquired were pledged.

Simultaneously with the former transaction, Rummaala acquired a plot of land adjacent to its own property for a total purchase price of US$15.0 million, payable as follows: (i) US$0.5 million in cash; (ii) through the delivery of certain units of buildings Cruceros I and II in the amount of US$1.25 million and (iii) trough the delivery of certain units of the building to be constructed in the land acquired for a total purchase price of US$13.25 million, within a 40-month term as from the later of the approval date of the plans by the competent authorities or the date on which the property is vacated. As security for compliance with the construction of the future building and transfer of the future units, the property located at Suipacha 652 was mortgaged.

In April 2007, our subsidiary IRSA created CYRSA S.A. in order to have a corporate vehicle to facilitate the development of a specific project together with one or more investors having in-depth knowledge and vast experience in the industry. To that end, IRSA contributed 100% of the capital stock in Rummaala S.A. and the debt in kind associated to the acquisition of the land to CYRSA for a net amount of $ 21.5 million, whereas CYRELA contributed $ 21.5 million (an amount equivalent to the value of the shares contributed by IRSA).

Our subsidiary IRSA entered into an agreement with Cyrela Brazil Realty S.A. Empreendimentos e Partiçipacões for the development of residential projects in the Republic of Argentina through CYRSA S.A., which will operate under the name of IRSA - CYRELA.

Cyrsa is presently developing this plot of land. The showroom was opened to the public in March 2008 and it was an immediate success. As of June 30, 2010 preliminary sales agreements representing 99.15% of the units to be sold were executed, and the results will be reflected according to the work progress, consolidated at 50%. The units will be completed and delivered in the course of fiscal 2011. At June 30, 2010 the degree of progress was about 83.16%.

Pan American Mall S.A., a subsidiary of our subsidiary APSA, is in the process of completing the development of an office building with a gross leasable area of 9,700 sqm adjacent to the shopping center opened in May 2009, Dot Baires. This building is almost operational and it marks the entrance by the Company in the booming rental office corridor in the northern area of the City of Buenos Aires.

Private Residential Communities

In the residential communities market, our subsidiary IRSA acquires undeveloped properties located in suburban areas or neighborhoods near the large cities to develop private neighborhoods and country clubs in which to sell vacant lots for the construction of single family homes. In these properties it builds streets and roads and arranges for the provision of basic municipal services and amenities such as open spaces, sports facilities and security. Our subsidiary IRSA seeks to capitalize on improvements in transportation and communication around the City of Buenos Aires, the growing suburbanization of the region and the shift of the population moving to countryside-type residential communities.

An important factor in the trend towards living in suburban areas has been the improvements and additions to the Autopista Panamericana, Avenida General Paz and Acceso Oeste highways, which significantly reduce traveling time, encouraging a significant number of families to move to the new residential neighborhoods. Furthermore, improvements in public train, subway and bus transportation since their privatization has also influenced the trend to adopt this lifestyle.

As of June 30, 2010, our subsidiary IRSA’s residential communities for the construction of single-family homes for sale in Argentina had a total of 9,816.07 square meters of saleable area in Abril, and 127,795 sqm of saleable area in “El Encuentro” (Benavidez). Both residential communities are located in the province of Buenos Aires.

Solares de Santa Maria, City of Buenos Aires, (formerly Santa María del Plata). Solares de Santa María is a 70-hectare property facing the Río de la Plata in the south of Puerto Madero, 10 minutes from downtown Buenos Aires. Through our subsidiary Solares de Santa María S.A. (“Solares de Santa María”) our subsidiary IRSA is owner of this property. IRSA intends to develop this property for mixed purposes, i.e. its development project involves residential complexes as well as offices, stores, hotels, sports and sailing clubs, services areas with schools, supermarkets and parking lots.

As part of the project, IRSA had sold 10% of Solares de Santa María capital stock for US$10.6 million to Mr. Israel Sutton Dabbah, who is part of the Sutton Group. An initial payment of US$1.5 million was made and the balance of US$9.1 million was due on December 23, 2009. In order to secure his obligations under the share purchase agreement, the buyer created a pledge on certain assets owned by it for IRSA’s and its subsidiary, Palermo Invest S.A.’s benefit.

On the first days of September 2010, and after the end of fiscal year 2010, IRSA acquired (through E-commerce Latina S.A.) a 100% interest in Unicity for the sum of US$ 2.5 million. The main asset of Unicity includes 31,491,932 shares representative of 10% of Solares de Santa María S.A.’s stock capital and pursuant to which it holds liabilities with IRSA for the purchase price balance, which as of even date amounts to US$ 9.1 million.

In 1997 IRSA acquired the site which the National Executive Branch had assigned to be the Olympic village of the Olympic Games in case Buenos Aires was chosen as host city to hold the Olympic Games. A rule passed by the Legislative Branch of the City of Buenos Aires in 1992, provided general urban standards to the site, and stated that the “Site urban design” was to be submitted for approval of the Environmental Urban Plan Council (Consejo de Planificación Urbana - “COPUA”). As from the acquisition of this property, IRSA has been seeking the municipal approvals necessary for the development of a mixed project in the area.

In the year 2000, IRSA filed a master plan for the Santa María del Plata site, which was assessed by COPUA and submitted to the Town Treasurer’s Office for its consideration. In 2002, the Government of the City of Buenos Aires issued a notice of public hearing and in July 2006, the COPUA made some recommendations about the project, and in response to the recommendations made by COPUA to the project on December 13, 2006, IRSA filed an amendment to the project to adjust it to the recommendations made by COPUA, making material amendments to its development plan for the Area, which amendments included the donation of 50% of the site to the City of Buenos Aires for public use and convenience and a perimetrical pedestrian lane along the entire site on the river bank.

In March 2007, a committee of the Government of the City of Buenos Aires, composed of representatives from the Legislative and Executive Branches issued a report stating that such Committee had no objections to IRSA’s development plan and requested that the General Treasury render a decision concerning the scope of the development plan submitted for the project.

In June 2007, IRSA sold 10% of the capital stock of Solares de Santa María for the amount of US$ 10.6 million to Mr. Israel Sutton Dabbah, an unrelated third party, who is affiliated to the Sutton Group. US$ 1.6 million of the purchase price were paid and the balance of US$ 9.0 million will be paid on June 23, 2010.

In November 2007, 15 years after the Legislative Branch of the City of Buenos Aires granted the general zoning standards for the site, the Government Chief of the City of Buenos Aires executed Decree No. 1584/07, which passed the specific ruling, set forth certain rules for the urban development of the project, including types of permitted constructions and the obligation to assign certain spaces for public use and convenience.

Notwithstanding the approval of Decree No. 1584/07 in 2007, several municipal approvals are still pending and in December 2007, a municipal court rendered a decision restricting the implementation of our proposed development plan due to objections made by a legislator of the City of Buenos Aires, alleging the suspension of Decree No. 1584/07 and each construction project and/or the municipal permits granted for business purposes. Notwithstanding the legality and validity that has the referred decree for the company, alternatively, Agreement 5/10 was executed with the Government of the City of Buenos Aires, which has been sent with a legislative bill to the Legislature of the City of Buenos Aires under number 976-J-2010, for approval. Once approved, these regulations will have the hierarchy of a law.

In June 2009, Liveck had acquired a 90% stake in the capital stock of Vista al Muelle S.A. and Zetol S.A., two Uruguay-based real estate companies, for US$ 7.8 million. These companies own as-yet undeveloped land in Canelones, Uruguay, close to the capital city of Uruguay, Montevideo. Out of those US$ 7.8 million, US$ 2.5 million were paid in cash and it was agreed that the US$ 5.3 million balance could be cancelled, at the option of the seller, either through five annual and equal installments of US$ 1.0 million each, accruing interest at an annual 3.5% interest rate on outstanding balances, or through an assignment of 12% of the square meters to be developed in the property mentioned. There is a mortgage over the land bought, which means that the sellers rely on a dual guarantee. On June 30, 2009, the Company sold a 50% stake in Liveck to Cyrela Brazil Realty S.A. for US$ 1.3 million.

In June 2009 Liveck acquired a 90% stake in the companies Zetol S.A. (Zetol) and Vista al Muelle S.A. (Vista al Muelle), both of which own real estate located in Uruguay’s Canelones department. The remaining 10% ownership interest in both companies is in the hands of Banzey S.A. (Banzey).

Our subsidiary IRSA and its partners intend to carry out an urban project consisting of the construction of apartment buildings to be subsequently sold. The project has been granted the requisite “urban feasibility” status by the Mayor’s Office of the Canelones department and by its local Legislature.

The total purchase price for Zetol was US$ 7.0 million; there has been a down payment for US$ 2.0 million and it has been agreed that the balance shall be cancelled in 5 installments of US$ 1.0 million each, accruing interest at an annual 3.5% rate on outstanding balances, against the consummated launches of the projected construction or within a maximum term of 93 months counted as from the date of acquisition by the Company. The sellers may choose to receive, in lieu of cash for the outstanding balances (principal plus interest), ownership over units in the buildings to be constructed in the land owned by Zetol equivalent to 12% of the total marketable meters to be constructed.

The total price for the acquisition of Vista al Muelle was US$ 0.83 million, as follows: there has been a US$ 0.5 million down payment and it has been agreed that the balance will be cancelled within a maximum term of two years plus an annual 8% interest rate on balances.

To secure compliance with the obligations assumed by Liveck in connection with the above-mentioned transactions, Ritelco S.A. has tendered a surety bond to secure 45% of the price balance, interest, and the sellers’ option rights.

Under the agreement for the purchase and sale of Zetol and Vista al Muelle and its respective addenda, Liveck has undertaken to acquire the shareholding held by Banzey (or by Ernesto Kimelman or by an entity owned by him, as applicable) in those companies and Banzey has agreed to sell the shares for the amount in US Dollars or in Uruguayan Pesos, as applicable, that any of them would have effectively contributed to Zetol and Vista al Muelle, until the transaction is consummated.

The parties have agreed that the above-mentioned duties will be rendered ineffectual if prior to September 1, 2010, inclusive, the parties had signed a stockholder agreement in that respect. If no such agreement is executed and delivered, the transaction will be formally instrumented on September 13, 2010.

In December 2009, Vista al Muelle acquired other real property totaling US$ 1.9 million; there has been a US$ 0.3 million down payment and the balance shall be cancelled through the delivery of housing units and/or storefronts to be constructed and equivalent to 12% of a 65.54% portion of the sum of the prices of all the units covered by the Launching Price List for Sector B (the parties have already signed a plat of subdivision to this end).

Investment in Hersha Hospitality Trust

On August 4, 2009, through Real Estate Investment Group L.P. (“REIG”), a company indirectly controlled and managed by IRSA, together with other minority investors, we acquired 5.7 million common shares of Hersha, a leading company in the hotels segment in the United States, for a total purchase price of US$ 14.3 million. Accessorily to the initial acquisition of our subsidiary IRSA’s equity interest in Hersha, it has an option to buy up to 5.7 million additional common shares in Hersha at a price of US$ 3.00 per share exercisable at any time prior to July 31, 2014 subject to certain conditions.

In January 2010, our subsidiary IRSA acquired 4.8 million additional shares for a total price of US$ 14.4 million, increasing our stake in Hersha to 10.3%. In turn, on March 24, 2010, Hersha resolved upon a capital increase whereby it issued 27,600,000 Class A common shares. In connection with this increase IRSA exercised our preemptive subscription rights granted under the initial transaction and acquired 3,864,000 additional Class A common shares for a price per share of US$ 4.25, for a total amount of US$ 16.4 million. Therefore, as of June 30, 2010, its interest in Hersha amounted to 11.31%.

Hersha is a REIT traded in the New York Stock Exchange, under the “HT” ticker. Hersha’s investments are mainly in upscale, mid-scale and extended stay hotels located in business hubs, urban and retail centers and secondary tourist destinations and markets mainly along the US Northeast as well as in some select niches in the US West coast.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated Operating Results

The following management’s discussion and analysis of our results of operations should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and related notes. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. These forward-looking statements include such words as “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “believe” and similar language. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including without limitation those set forth elsewhere in the Annual Report and Financial Statements.

For purposes of the following discussion and analysis, unless otherwise specified, references to fiscal years 2009 and 2010 relate to the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009 and 2010, respectively.

During the six-month period ended December 31, 2008, Cresud acquired directly and indirectly 68,712,008 additional shares of IRSA. Thus, Cresud’s interest in this company, directly and indirectly through its controlled companies, was 54.01% as of that date and, accordingly, as from October 1, 2008, it began to present its financial statements in consolidated form with IRSA’s in accordance with the provisions of Technical Resolution No. 21 of the Professional Council in Economic Sciences of the City of Buenos Aires (“CPCECABA”).

Consequently, the Company’s consolidated financial statements at June 30, 2009 shown in the comparative balances include information in consolidated form with IRSA’s for the nine-month period from October 1, 2008 to June 30, 2009.

We maintain our accounting books and records in Pesos. Except as set forth in the following paragraph, we prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with Argentine GAAP and the regulations of the Comisión Nacional de Valores.

In order to comply with Comisión Nacional de Valores regulations, we discontinued inflation accounting as of March 1, 2003, and we recognize deferred income tax assets and liabilities on a non-discounted basis. These accounting practices represent departures from Argentine GAAP. However, we believe that such departures have not had a material effect on our financial statements.

Effects of Devaluation and Economic Crisis

Most of our assets are located and our operations are performed in Argentina. Accordingly, our financial position and results of operations depend substantially upon economic conditions prevailing in Argentina. Due to the four-year recession ended on the second quarter of 2002, the Argentine economy deteriorated sharply. Fiscal and commercial deficit and a fixed exchange rate (known as Convertibility Regime) combined with strong reliance on foreign capital and substantial outstanding foreign debt led to a sharp contraction of economic activity and a banking and fiscal crisis when substantial capital outflow began.

In response to the political and economic crisis, the Argentine government adopted measures to introduce substantial changes to the monetary and exchange regime, and to the regulatory

framework to conduct business in the country. Between December 2001 and January 2002, Argentina uncoupled the peso from the U.S. dollar, rescheduled bank deposits, “pesified” debts denominated in U.S. dollars and suspended the payment of most of its public debt.

Several sectors of the Argentine economy were significantly affected by the modification of the exchange and regulatory regimes. In April 2002, the economy began to stabilize and there was a clear improvement in macroeconomic variables during the second half of the year, mainly as a result of increasing exports and decreasing imports. Although the devaluation of the peso had adverse consequences, it also led the commercial balance back to surplus, thus allowing the recovery of local production. As a result of the steep drop in the value of the peso against foreign currencies, along with the decrease in production costs measured in U.S. dollars, Argentine products became inexpensive goods in international export markets. In the same line, the cost of imported goods increased significantly, which allowed excess demand to redirect towards goods produced locally.

During the second half of 2002, Argentine GDP increased by 4.4% and the CPI was 8.0% for the six-month period ended December 31, 2002, compared to 30.5% for the six-month period ended June 2002. The improvement in economic conditions, particularly the reduction in capital outflows, allowed the government to lift restrictions in respect of bank withdrawals established in November 2002.

Despite the improved economic conditions during the second half of 2002, GDP fell 10.9% over a twelve-month period, returning to 1993 values, investments decreased and inflation increased exponentially. The crisis had its most significant impact at social level. Unemployment grew from 12.9% to 19.7% between 1998 and 2002, real wages fell 24% in 2002, and the poverty rate increased from 29% of the population in 2000 to 52% in 2002.

In May 2003, President Néstor Kirchner reorganized the political environment. Macroeconomic indicators began to show signs of recovery, such as the GDP which grew 8.8% in 2003. The combination of solid fiscal and monetary policies held the CPI at bay at 3.5% during 2003. During that year, Argentina embarked in the restoration of its relationship with the IMF, removed from circulation all provincial and national quasi-currencies, and eliminated restrictions on deposits. The commercial balance recorded a surplus as a result of an increase in the price of commodities and export volumes. Social indicators also improved. The unemployment rate fell to 17.3% in 2003, and real wages started to recover.

Exceeding growth expectations, in 2004 the GDP increased 9.0% in comparison with 2003 and during 2005 the economy also expanded strongly at a rate of 9.2%. During 2006 and 2007 the Argentine economy, in terms of GDP, continued to grow at an annual rate of 8.5%. In 2008, economic growth reached 6.8%, combined with an anticipated expansion of 2.0% for the first quarter of 2009. Inflation during 2004 remained low although it doubled the 2003 rate; in 2005 the rate of inflation was 12.3%, in 2006 9.8%, in 2007 8.5%, in 2008 7.2%, and in the first half of 2009 2.2%.

In June 2005, the Argentine government ended the restructuring of a substantial portion of public debt which had been defaulted in December 2001. Argentina reduced its public debt from US$ 1,913 million to US$ 1,266 million, and negotiated lower interest rates and longer payment terms.

During 2008, the global economy experienced a significant deterioration following the subprime mortgage crisis. As a result, Argentina faced a global scenario of economic depression and slowdown that might hinder economic growth. During 2009 and the first six-month period of 2010, however, some signs of recovery have been observed such as an increased level of activity in certain developed economies.

In fiscal year 2010, the Argentine government decided to reopen the swap of sovereign debt in default, so as to be able to reenter the international financial markets. The objective was for more than 60% of the holdouts to accept, so as to reach the 90% acceptance considering both swaps (2005 and 2010). In this way, it would be possible to set aside the motions for attachment of foreign based Argentine assets.

Although the Argentine economy has significantly recovered since the 2002 crisis, we cannot ensure that favorable conditions experienced in Argentina during recent years will continue in the future.

Factors affecting Comparability

Purchase and Sale of Farms

Our strategy includes the identification, acquisition, exploitation and selective disposition of rural properties that have attractive prospects for long-term value appreciation. As part of this strategy, from time to time we purchase and sell farms. The acquisition or disposition of farms in any given period may make the production results of that period difficult to compare to those of other periods.

Seasonality

As is the case with any company in the agro-industrial sector, our business activities are inherently seasonal. Harvest and sales of grains (corn, soybean and sunflower) in general take place from February to June. Wheat is harvested from December to January. With respect to our international market, in Bolivia climate conditions allow a double season of soybean, corn and sorghum production and, accordingly, these crops are harvested in April and October, while wheat and sunflower are harvested during August and September, respectively. Other segments of our activities, such as our sales of cattle and milk and our forestry activities, tend to be more of a successive character than of a seasonal character. However, the production of beef and milk is generally higher during the second quarter, when pasture conditions are more favorable. In consequence, there may be significant variations in results from one quarter to the other.

Revenue Recognition

We derive our revenues primarily from (i) the production and sale of crops, beef cattle and milk, (ii) cattle feedlot operations, (iii) leasing of our farms to third parties and (iv) commodity brokerage activities.

Through the consolidation of our financial statements with IRSA’s, we record revenue mainly from the rental and operation of services at offices and shopping centers in Argentina, the development and sale of properties, consumer finance transactions, and hotel operations.

This section reflects our policies for revenue recognition as well as those of our controlled and under common control subsidiaries.

Agricultural business

Production. We recognize production income when there is a change in biological assets. For example, we recognize production income when crops are harvested or a cow is born or gains a certain amount of weight. Biological assets are unharvested crops, heads of cattle and dairy cows. Agricultural produce such as harvested crops, beef and milk are the harvested product of biological assets.

Sales. We recognize revenue on sales of crops, beef cattle and milk when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured.

From time to time we sell properties which we consider not essential to our core operations in order to profit from real estate appreciation opportunities. We record farmland sales under the applicable accounting standards and do not recognize such sales until (i) the sale is consummated (a sale is not considered consummated until: (a) the parties are bound by the terms of a contract, (b) all contract terms and conditions have been considered, (c) any financing for which the seller is responsible has been arranged and (d) all conditions precedent to closing have been performed); (ii) we determine that the buyer’s initial and continuing investments in the property being sold are adequate to demonstrate its commitment to pay for the property (the adequacy is measured by its financial capacity and size compared with the sale value of the property); (iii) the corresponding receivable is not subject to future subordination (our receivable will not be placed in or occupy a lower rank, class or position with respect to other obligations of the buyer) and (iv) we have transferred to the buyer the usual risks and rewards of ownership and have no continuing substantial involvement in the property.

Real estate business

We record revenue from the rental and operation of services at offices and shopping centers in Argentina, the development and sale of properties, consumer finance transactions, and hotel operations. This section reflects our policies for revenue recognition as well as those of our controlled and under common control subsidiaries.

Sales and Developments. We record revenue from the sale of property when all of the following criteria are met:

(a)

the sale has been carried out (a sale is not deemed to be carried out until (i) the parties are bound by the terms of a contract, (ii) all considerations have been exchanged, (iii) any permanent financing under the seller’s responsibility has been agreed, and (iv) all conditions precedent have been complied with);

(b)

we determine that the initial and continuing investment of the purchaser is appropriate to evidence a commitment to pay for the property (the appropriateness of the purchaser’s initial investment is measured by (i) its composition and (ii) its size compared to the sales price of the property);

(c)

our receivable is not subject to any future condition (our receivable will not be placed or occupy any rank, category or position lower than the other obligations of the purchaser); and

(d)

we have transferred to the purchaser all the risks and benefits of ownership, and do not have a continuing participation in the property.

Generally, we enter into sale agreements with the purchasers of units for residential development before construction commences. According to this practice, we commence our marketing and sales efforts in accordance with the architectural designs already agreed and the model units. As a general rule, the purchasers pay a unit reservation fee and subsequently enter into sale agreements at a fixed price. The balance of the purchase price is payable upon delivery of the fully constructed unit.

The construction of these properties for residential development is carried out based on “turnkey” contracts with leading construction companies in Argentina and South America, which undertake to complete construction within a given period and budget, subject to routine exceptions.

We apply the percentage of completion method in respect of the sales of property developments under construction under fixed price contracts. Pursuant to this method, revenue is recognized based on the relationship between costs incurred and total estimated costs applied to the total price of the contract. We do not recognize revenue and costs until a decision is made to continue with the project and construction begins.

The percentage of completion accounting method requires management to prepare a cost budget (e.g. estimated completion costs) in relation to the sales of properties and/or units. Any changes to estimated completion costs are incorporated to the review of estimates during the contract term.

According to this accounting method, revenue from completed work may be recognized in the income statement for the period prior to that in which the actual cash proceeds from the sale are received. In this situation, a deferred asset is recorded. Alternatively, and as the most usual practice, whenever the purchasers of a property and/or unit make an initial payment in advance and pay monthly installments in cash before the commencement of construction, a liability is recorded as an advance from customers in the financial statements.

Rentals and services at office buildings and others. Rentals from lessees are accounted for as operating leases. Lessees pay a basic monthly rental. Revenue from rentals is recognized based on the straight-line method during the term of the lease.

Rentals and services at shopping centers. Rentals from lessees are accounted for as operating income. Generally, lessees pay a rental consisting in the higher value between (i) a basic monthly rental (the “Basic Rental”) and (ii) a specific percentage of monthly gross retail sales of the lessee (the “Percentage Rental”) (which generally ranges from 4% to 10% of gross sales of the lessee). In addition, pursuant to the rental indexation clause in most leases, the lessee’s Basic Rental is generally increased between 7% and 12% per year during the term of the lease. Certain lease agreements include provisions that set forth rentals based on a percentage of sales or based on a percentage of turnover exceeding a specified minimum. We determine compliance with specific goals and calculate the additional rental on a monthly basis as contemplated in the leases. Therefore, we do not recognize contingent rentals until the required minimum is exceeded.

The term of our leases ranges between 36 and 120 months. Law No. 24,808 sets forth that lessees may terminate commercial leases after an initial period of six months by giving at least 60 days prior written notice, subject to a penalty of one month to one month and a half of rental if the lessee terminates the lease during the first year of the lease and one month of rental if the lessee terminated the lease after the first year.

We also charge our lessees a monthly management fee, which is prorated among the lessees in accordance with their lease prices and varies from one shopping center to the other, in relation to the common area administration and maintenance and the administration of contributions made by lessees to finance the promotion efforts of all the operations of shopping centers. Management fees are recognized on a monthly basis as accrued. In addition to rental, we generally charge an “admission fee” to lessees, i.e. a non-reimbursable admission fee that may be required from lessees upon execution and renewal of the lease. This admission fee is usually paid as a lump sum or in a small number of monthly installments. Admission fees are recognized using the straight-line method during the effective term of the respective leases. Additionally, leases in general provide for the reimbursement of the real estate tax, insurance, advertising costs and certain common area maintenance costs. These additional rentals and reimbursements to lessees are accounted for on an accrual basis.

We also derive revenue from visitor parking charges, and recognize parking revenue as services rendered.

Consumer financing transactions. We derive revenue from consumer financing transactions with credit cards which consist mainly in (i) commissions for discounts to storekeepers, that are recognized when the information on the transaction is received and processed by us, (ii) data processing services consisting in the processing and printing of the statements of account of credit cardholders, that are recognized as services rendered, (iii) life insurance and disability expenses charged to credit cardholders, that are recognized on an accrual basis, and (iv) interest income from financing and loan activities.

Hotels. We recognize income from room services, catering services and restaurant facilities, as accrued at the closing of operations on each business day.

Adoption by the Comisión Nacional de Valores of CPCECABA accounting standards

The Comisión Nacional de Valores issued General Resolutions No. 485 and 487 on December 29, 2005 and January 26, 2006, respectively, adopting, with certain modifications, the new accounting standards previously issued by CPCECABA through its Resolution CD 93/2005. These standards became effective for our fiscal year ended June 30, 2007. The most significant changes included in the accounting standards adopted by the Comisión Nacional de Valores relate to:

•

changes in the impairment test of long-lived assets; and

•

changes to deferred income tax accounting.

Under the new standards, the carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered by a company to be impaired when the expected cash flows from such asset are separately identifiable and less than its carrying value. Expected cash flows are determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. The new standards also provide for the accounting treatment of differences between the tax basis and book basis of non-monetary items for deferred income tax calculation purposes when companies prepare price-level restated financial statements. The new accounting standard mandates companies to treat these differences as temporary differences but allows a one-time accommodation to continue treating the differences between the tax basis and indexed book basis of non-monetary items as permanent at the time of adoption of the standard. As a result, we elected to continue treating differences as permanent. In addition, the new standards provide for the recognition of deferred income taxes on a non-discounted basis.

Segment Information

We are required to disclose segment information in accordance with Technical Resolution (“RT”) No. 18. RT No. 18 establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires reporting of selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. Operating segments are components of a company about which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated by the chief operating decision makers in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The statement also establishes standards for related disclosures about a company’s products and services, geographical areas and major customers.

Agricultural business

We are primarily engaged in agricultural operations which are subject to risk, including market prices, weather conditions and environmental concerns. From time to time, we sell properties to profit from real estate appreciation opportunities and which, in the judgment of management, are surplus to the Company’s primary operations.

For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009 and 2010, our principal operations were carried out in Argentina, our country of domicile. In September 2005, we formed BrasilAgro to replicate our business strategy in Brazil.

As from fiscal year 2009, within the context of a number of transactions that represent us a new expansion of the agricultural business in South America as designed in its business plan, the Company commenced operations in the Republic of Bolivia, Republic of Paraguay and Republic of Uruguay. We conduct business in six business segments, organized primarily on a product line and geographical area basis, with each segment offering a variety of different but interrelated products:

•

Crops: this segment includes the planting and harvesting and sale of fine and coarse grains and oilseeds, including wheat, corn, soybean and sunflower (both domestic and international markets);

•

Beef cattle: this segment consists of (i) the raising and fattening of beef cattle from our owned cattle stock and (ii) the purchase and fattening of beef cattle, for sale to meat processors;

•

Milk: this segment consists of the production of milk for sale to dairy companies;

•

Other: this segment consists of services and leasing of our farms to third parties, and commodity brokerage activities; and

•

Sales of farms: this segment includes the results from the sale of farms.

We evaluate the performance of our business segments based on the “segment operating income (loss)” which represents gross profit less selling and administrative expenses plus gains (losses) from inventory holding.

Real estate business

We have determined that the reportable business units are those based on management information generated by the company. Consequently, we have six reportable business units. These units are: “shopping centers”, “consumer financing”, “sales and developments”, “offices and other”, “hotels” and “financial and other transactions”.

Below is a general description of each segment:

•

Shopping centers. This segment includes the operating results from shopping centers, primarily composed of rental income and services received from lessees.

•

Consumer financing. We operate a consumer financing business based on credit card through Tarshop, the controlled subsidiary of our subsidiary APSA. Consumer financing transactions mainly consist of loans and services related to the credit card products we offer to consumers in shopping centers, hypermarkets and stores. We finance a substantial part of consumer financing activities through the securitization of credits underlying the originating accounts. Revenue from consumer financing transactions comes from interest earned from finance and loan activities, storekeeper commissions, life insurance and disability expenses and data processing fees, consisting in the processing and printing of the statement of account of the cardholder.

•

Sales and developments. This segment includes the operating results from the construction and/or sale of residential buildings.

•

Offices and other. This segment includes the operating results from rentals and services of offices and other buildings.

•

Hotels. This segment includes the operating results of hotels, which are primarily composed of revenue from rooms, catering services and restaurant.

•

Financial and other transactions. This segment basically includes revenue and costs associated with the sale of shares, other transactions related to securities and other secondary activities.

We measure reportable business units based on net income/(loss). Transactions between business units, if any, are accounted for at current market prices. We evaluate the performance of business units and allocate resources based on operating results. In most activities this does not depend on a single customer.

Results of Operations of the Agricultural Business

Effective July 1, 2006, we adopted Technical Resolution (RT) No. 22, which prescribes the accounting treatment, financial statement presentation, and disclosures related to agricultural activity. Agricultural activity is the management by an entity of the biological transformation of living animals or plants (biological assets) for sale, into agricultural produce or into additional biological assets. RT No. 22 prescribes, among other things, the accounting treatment for biological assets during the period of growth, degeneration, production and procreation, and for the initial measurement of agricultural produce at the point of harvest. It requires measurement at fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs from initial recognition of biological assets up to the point of harvest, other than when fair value cannot be measured reliably on initial recognition. RT No. 22 requires that a change in fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs of a biological asset be included in profit or loss for the period in which it arises. In agricultural activity, a change in physical attributes of a living animal or plant directly enhances or diminishes economic benefits to the entity. RT No. 22 is applied to agricultural produce which is the harvested product of the entity’s biological assets, only at the point of harvest. Accordingly, RT No. 22 does not deal with the processing of agricultural produce after harvest; for example, the processing of milk into cheese.

Biological transformation comprises the processes of growth, degeneration, production and procreation that cause qualitative or quantitative changes in a biological asset. Biological assets are living unharvested crops, heads of cattle and dairy cows. Agricultural produce such as harvested crops, beef, milk and raw materials are the harvested product of biological assets. Biological transformation results in the following types of outcomes: asset changes through (i) growth (an increase in quantity or improvement in quality of an animal or plant), (ii) degeneration (a decrease in the quantity or deterioration in quality of an animal or plant), or (iii) procreation (creation of additional living animals or plants).

The adoption of RT No. 22 did not have a material impact on our measurement and recognition of biological transformation. Rather, it changed the format of our income statement. Under RT No. 22 we break down the components of our costs as separate line items in the income statement. The adoption of RT No. 22 did not change our gross profit for any of the periods presented.

Prior to the adoption of RT No. 22, gains or losses from initial recognition of biological assets and agricultural produce as well as changes in biological assets were included as a deduction from cost of sales. Under RT No. 22 these changes are disclosed separately in the income statement under the line item titled “Production income”.

Also, prior to the adoption of RT No. 22, costs directly related to the transformation of biological assets and agricultural produce were also included as an addition to cost of sales. Under RT No. 22, these costs are disclosed separately in the income statement under the line item titled “Cost of production” due to the direct relationship to the transformation of biological assets and agricultural produce.

The adoption of RT No. 22 did not affect our recognition of revenue which is included in the line item titled “Sales” in our income statement. See Note 2.u) to our financial statements. As a result of the adoption of RT No. 22, our costs of sales show direct costs related to the sales of agricultural produce other than selling expenses. RT No. 22 intends to purport that costs of sales are not significant in agricultural activities while costs of biological transformation into agricultural produce represent the major costs of these activities.

101

In addition, under RT No. 22, the exhibits entitled “Cost of Sales” and “Cost of Production” included in our consolidated financial statements present a reconciliation of changes in the carrying amount of biological assets between the beginning and the end of the relevant periods. This reconciliation includes (a) the gain or loss arising from changes in fair value less estimated point-of-sale costs; (b) increases due to purchases; (c) decreases attributable to sales and biological assets classified as held for sale; (d) decreases due to harvest; (e) increases resulting from business combinations, if any; (f) other changes.

The following terms used herein have the meanings specified below:

Production Income. We recognize production income when there is a change in biological assets. For example, we recognize production income when crops are harvested or a cow is born or gains a certain amount of weight. Biological assets are unharvested crops, heads of cattle and dairy cows. Agricultural produce such as harvested crops, beef and milk are the harvested product of biological assets.

Cost of Production. Our cost of production consists of costs directly related to the transformation of biological assets and agricultural produce.

Sales. Our sales consist of revenue on the sales of crops, milk and cattle beef. Sales are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenue from cattle feeding operations, primarily comprised of feeding, animal health and yardage, and revenue from operating leases and brokerage activities are recognized as services are performed.

Cost of Sales. Our cost of sales consists of: (i) the book value of the product sold at the time of sale and (ii) certain direct costs related to the sales of agricultural produce other than selling expenses.

Gain (loss) from inventory holding. Our gain (loss) from inventory holding consists of changes in the carrying amount of biological assets between the beginning and the results of operations in the futures and options exchange market (Mercado a Término).

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF RESULTS

Fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 compared to fiscal year ended June 30, 2009

Production income

Production income was Ps. 217.7 million for fiscal year 2010, 26.2% higher than the amount recorded for the previous fiscal year. This was primarily attributable to a Ps.36.7 million increase in our Crops segment, a Ps.2.7 million increase in our Beef cattle segment and a Ps.5.8 million increase in our Milk segment.

Crops – Local

Production income from our Crops segment increased 21.2%, from Ps.118.6 million for fiscal year 2009 to Ps.143.8 million for fiscal year 2010, primarily as a result of:

•

a 33.9% increase in total production volumes, from Ps.215,857 tons in fiscal year 2009 to 289,141 tons in fiscal year 2010, mainly due to an increase in volumes of corn 13.0%, soybean 71.0% and sorghum 19.7% harvested, partially offset by a decrease of 52.5% in volumes of wheat harvested and of 47.1% of sunflower harvested from year to year; and

•

a 7.4% decrease in average prices of grain production.

The 33.9% increase in the production volume from our Crops segment was mainly due to a 64.5% increase in our average yield, from 2.14 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2009 to 3.52 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2010, mainly due to the mix of grain harvested and favorable weather conditions. The surface area in operation for fiscal year 2009 was 100,925 hectares (including 8,067 hectares under concession through our subsidiary Agropecuaria Anta S.A.) whereas for fiscal year 2010 it was 82,088 (including 10,816 hectares under concession through our subsidiary Agropecuaria Anta S.A.).

As of June 30, 2010, the harvested area was 86.3% of our total sown area, compared to 94.8% as of June 30, 2009.

The following table shows the board prices⁽¹⁾as of June 30, 2009 and 2010:

Crops – International

Production income from our Crops segment increased 73.6%, from Ps.15.6 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.27.0 million in fiscal year 2010, mainly as a result of:

•

a 58.1% increase in global production volume from 21,174 tons in fiscal year 2009 to 33,475 tons in fiscal year 2010, mainly due to a 39.6% increase in volumes of soybean harvested and a 50.4% increase in volumes of corn harvested; and

•

a 9.8% increase in the average price of grain production.

The 58.1% increase in production volume of our Crops segment resulted mainly from a larger surface area under operation, from 9,950 hectares in fiscal year 2009 to 18,872 hectares in fiscal year 2010.

As of June 30, 2010, the harvested area was 96.3% of the total sown area, compared to 100% as of June 30, 2009.

In addition, the production volume of the Crops segment was adversely impacted by a 16.9% reduction in our average yield, from 2.13 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2009 to 1.77 tons per hectare in fiscal year 2010, mainly due to unfavorable weather conditions.

Beef cattle

Production income for the Beef cattle segment increased 15.0%, from Ps.18.1 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.20.8 million in fiscal year 2010, primarily as a result of:

•

a 42.3% increase in the average price of kilogram of cattle produced, from Ps.2.6 in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.3.7 million in fiscal year 2010,

•

a 20.4% decrease in beef production volume, from 7,112 tons during fiscal year 2009 to 5,659 tons in fiscal year 2010. The beef production volume in farms decreased 22.5% in fiscal year 2010 compared to fiscal year 2009, partially offset by a 14.9% higher production of heads finished in the feedlot compared to the previous year; and

•

a 28.7% decrease in births during fiscal year 2010 compared to fiscal year 2009.

The number of hectares dedicated to beef cattle production decreased from 128,859 hectares in fiscal year 2009 to 105,857 in fiscal year 2010. This was mainly due to a smaller number of hectares devoted to cattle production leased from third parties.

Milk

Production income for the Milk segment increased 28.8%, from Ps.20.2 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.26.0 million in fiscal year 2010. This increase was mainly due to:

•

a 23.7% increase in average prices of milk, from Ps.0.93 per liter in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.1.15 per liter in fiscal year 2010; and

104

•

a 3.8% increase in milk production volumes, from 20.9 million liters in fiscal year 2009 to 21.7 million liters in this fiscal year. This increase in production volume was mainly due to (i) a slight increase in the average number of milking cows (from 3,286 in fiscal year 2009 to 3,297 in fiscal year 2010); and (ii) a slight increase of 3.5% in the efficiency level of average daily milk production per cow, from 17.4 liters in fiscal year 2009 to 18.0 liters in fiscal year 2010.

Cost of production

Cost of production decreased 4.0%, from Ps.210.4 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.201.9 million in fiscal year 2010. This decrease was mainly due to a 16.2 million decrease in our Crops segment, partially offset by a Ps. 5.6 million increase in our Beef cattle segment and a Ps.2.1 million increase in our Milk segment.

Crops – Local

Cost of production from our Crops segment decreased 16.8%, from Ps.159.1 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.132.3 million in fiscal year 2010, primarily as a consequence of:

•

a lower number of hectares in operation in own farms and farms leased from third parties in fiscal year 2010 compared to fiscal year 2009; and

•

a significant decrease in direct costs of production during fiscal year 2010 compared to fiscal year 2009, primarily as a result of lower prices of leases and supplies used (agrochemicals and seeds).

Total cost of production per ton decreased 38.4%, from Ps.740 in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.456 in fiscal year 2010, primarily as a result of lower direct costs of production and higher yields per hectare during fiscal year 2010 compared to fiscal year 2009 that allowed to dilute costs of production.

Crops – International

Cost of production from our Crops segment increased 63.2% from Ps.16.8 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.27.4 million in fiscal year 2010, mainly due to:

•

higher production volumes in fiscal year 2010 compared to fiscal year 2009; and

•

a larger number of hectares in operation in fiscal year 2010 compared to fiscal year 2009.

The total cost of production per ton increased 3.2% from Ps.794 in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.819 in fiscal year 2010, mainly due to higher direct costs of production compared to the previous fiscal year.

Milk

Cost of production for the Milk segment increased 11.5%, from Ps.18.3 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.20.4 million in fiscal year 2010. This increase was mainly due to:

•

a 3.8% increase in milk production volume in fiscal year 2010 compared to the previous fiscal year; and

105

•

the impact of higher indirect costs. As a result of the above, cost of production per liter of milk increased from Ps.0.89 in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.0.94 in fiscal year 2010.

Sales

Total sales increased 32.7%, from Ps.1,254.7 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.1,664.6 million in fiscal year 2010. This was primarily due to a 36.8% increase in the Agricultural business, from Ps.239.4 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.327.4 million in fiscal year 2010 and a 31.7% increase in the Real estate business, from Ps.1,015.3 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.1,337.2 million in fiscal year 2010.

Agricultural business

Sales increased 36.8% from Ps.239.4 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.327.4 million in fiscal year 2010, primarily as a result of a Ps.30.2 million increase in the Crops segment, a Ps.21.6 million increase in the Beef cattle segment, a Ps.5.1 million increase in the Milk segment, a Ps.14.4 million increase in the Other segment, and a Ps.16.6 million increase in our Sales of farms segment.

Crops – Local

Sales from our Crops segment increased 11.4%, from Ps.147.7 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.164.5 million in fiscal year 2010, primarily as a consequence of:

•

a 16.5% increase in average prices of grains sold, from Ps.607 per ton in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.707 per ton in fiscal year 2010;

•

Net financial results

We had a net financial income of Ps.44.7 million in fiscal year 2009, and a Ps.201.3 million loss in fiscal year 2010. This was primarily due to:

•

non-recurrent income of Ps.176.6 million in fiscal year 2009 generated by the repurchase of Notes issued by our subsidiaries IRSA and Alto Palermo S.A.;

•

a higher loss of Ps.29.2 million in net financial interest recorded in fiscal year 2010;

•

a lower gain of Ps.26.7 million generated by the results from hedging transactions in fiscal year 2010;

•

a lower gain of Ps.44.9 million generated by the results from financial and other transactions in fiscal year 2010;

•

a lower gain of Ps.4.0 million generated by translation differences in fiscal year 2010; and

•

a lower loss Ps.35.3 million generated by net exchange differences in fiscal year 2010.

Our net financial loss in fiscal year 2010 is mainly due to (i) a Ps.158.5 million loss from the negative impact of interest accrued on debt financing, mainly due to increased indebtedness and higher interest rates; (ii) a Ps.45.6 million loss generated by net exchange differences mainly as a result of a higher liability position in US dollars; and (iii) a Ps.4.9 million loss derived from holding results from the placement of funds and other financial transactions.

The above-mentioned losses ser positively offset by (i) a Ps.5.4 million gain mostly generated by foreign exchange futures – NDF, and (ii) a Ps.2.3 million gain generated by translation differences during fiscal year 2010 from the consolidation with our subsidiary established in the Republic of Uruguay.

Gain (loss) on equity investees

Gain on our equity investees increased 158.4%, from Ps.49.2 million in fiscal year 2009 to Ps.127.1 million in fiscal year 2010. This was primarily due to:

•

an increase of Ps.36.5 million in fiscal year 2010 with respect to our investment in IRSA. The result from our investment in IRSA in fiscal year 2010 includes a Ps.6.2 million loss due to the amortization of higher values generated by the business combination. The 42.7 million loss for fiscal year 2009 includes a Ps.33.6 million loss from our investment in IRSA and a Ps.9.1 million loss from the amortization of higher values generated by the above mentioned effect;

116

•

an increase of Ps.70.2 million in fiscal year 2010 due to income from related companies in our Real estate business;

•

a decrease of Ps.11.3 million in fiscal year 2010 with respect to our equity interest in BrasilAgro. The result from our investment in BrasilAgro was a Ps.1.8 million gain for fiscal year 2009, compared to a Ps.9.5 million loss for fiscal year 2010;

a decrease of Ps.18.5 million in fiscal year 2010 with respect to our equity interest in Cactus Argentina S.A. The result from our investment in Cactus was a Ps.2.6 million loss for fiscal year 2009, compared to a Ps.21.1 million loss for fiscal year 2010; and

•

an increase of Ps.1.1 million in fiscal year 2010 mainly as a result of our equity interest in AgroUranga S.A. The result from our investment in such company was a Ps.2.9 million gain in fiscal year 2009, compared to a Ps.3.7 million gain in fiscal year 2010.

Other income and expenses, net

Other income and expenses, net, represented a net expense of Ps.16.5 million and Ps.19.7 million in fiscal years 2009 and 2010, respectively. These results were mainly due to the negative impact from the tax on personal assets payable by the Company on behalf of its shareholders as required under Argentine legislation and to a lesser extent, to the impact from donations.

Management fee

Under the consulting agreement entered into with Consultores Assets Management S.A., we pay a fee equal to 10% of our net income for agricultural advisory services and other management services. The fees amounted to Ps.13.6 million in fiscal year 2009 and Ps.20.6 million in fiscal year 2010.

Income tax

Our income tax expense was Ps.92.7 million in fiscal year 2009 and Ps.145.9 million in fiscal year 2010. We recognize our income tax expense on the basis of the deferred tax liability method, thus recognizing temporary differences between accounting and tax assets and liabilities measurements. The main temporary differences for the Agricultural business derive from valuation of cattle stock and fixed assets sale and replacement, while those corresponding to the Real estate business derive from the sale and replacement of fixed assets.

For purposes of determining the deferred assets and liabilities, the tax rate expected to be in force at the time of their reversion or use, according to the legal provisions enacted as of the date of issuance of these financial statements (35%), has been applied to the identified temporary differences and tax losses.

117

Minority interest

Our minority interest was a Ps.94.2 million loss for fiscal year 2009 and a Ps.184.8 million loss in fiscal year 2010.

Net income

IFRS Implementation Plan: Progress Report

On April 29, 2010, our Board of Directors approved a specific plan for implementing the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). In conformity with the planned schedule, the Company is set to start training its own accounting and tax area personnel and that of its subsidiaries and related companies in the coming quarter and expects to have completed the training in the next fiscal year. Besides, as soon as all requisite submissions and filings of the Company’s financial statements as of June 30, 2010 have been complied with, work will start in the process to prepare an initial diagnosis of the differences between standards. This process is estimated to be carried out in the next fiscal year.

Having monitored the specific plan for implementing the IFRS, our Board has not become aware of any circumstance calling for changes in the plan and/or hinting at any potential deviation from the stipulated objectives and terms.

Service sharing agreement entered into with IRSA and Alto Palermo

In view of the fact that our Company, IRSA and APSA have operating areas with certain similarities, the Board of Directors deemed it appropriate to implement alternative initiatives aimed at reducing certain fixed costs in activities in order to reduce their impact on operating results, thereby taking advantage of and optimizing individual efficiencies of each company in the different areas of operations management.

As a result, on June 30, 2004 our Company, IRSA and APSA entered into a Framework Agreement for the Exchange of Corporate Services, which was amended on August 23, 2007, August 14, 2008 and November 27, 2009.

At present, the Framework Agreement for the Exchange of Corporate Services among our Company, IRSA and APSA includes the following areas for purposes of the exchange of services: Human Resources, Finance, Institutional Relations, Administration and Control, Systems and Technology, Insurance, Purchases and Procurement, Messenger Services, Contracts, Technical, Infrastructure and Services, Internal Audit, Planning and Development, Development of Works, Real Estate, Hotels and Tourism, and Risks and Processes.

The exchange of services consists in the provision of services for value in relation to any of the above mentioned areas, carried out by one or more of the parties on behalf of the other party or parties, invoiced and payable primarily through offsetting based on the provision of services in any such areas, and secondarily in cash, in case of a difference in value of the services provided.

118

Under this agreement, the companies have hired an external consulting company to review and evaluate on a six-month basis the criteria used in the settlement of corporate services, as well as the bases of distribution and supporting documentation used in the process, to be reflected in a report prepared for each six-month period.

On March 12, 2010 we entered into a new amendment to the service sharing agreement with IRSA and APSA so as to simplify the issues arising from the consolidation of the financial statements resulting from the increase or our investment in IRSA. In this regard, our Board of Directors has deemed it convenient and advisable for achieving such simplification, to unify in the Company and to assign to Cresud IRSA’s and APSA’s employment agreements. Effective since January 1, 2010, labor costs of such employees were transferred to our payroll, which will continue to be distributed pursuant to the conditions of the Shared Services Agreement.

In the future, and in order to follow the policy of making the most efficient distribution of corporate resources among the different areas, this agreement may be extended to other areas shared by the Company with IRSA and APSA.

It should be noted that, notwithstanding this procedure, the Company, IRSA and APSA maintain total independence in their strategic and commercial decisions, and that the allocation of costs and income is performed based on operating efficiency and equity principles, without pursuing individual economic benefits for the companies. The implementation of this project does not impair the identification of the economic transactions or services involved, or the effectiveness of internal control systems or internal and external audit work of each company, or the disclosure of the transactions subject to the Agreement in accordance with Technical Resolution No. 21 of the FACPCE. In addition, Alejandro Gustavo Elsztain is the General Coordinator while the operation and implementation are the responsibility of Daniel E. Mellincovsky on behalf of our Company, Cedric Bridger on behalf of IRSA, and Abraham Perelman on behalf of APSA, all of whom are members of the Audit Committees of their respective companies.

PROSPECTS FOR NEXT YEAR

Prospects for the next fiscal year are favorable to agricultural and cattle raising production. We will be planting more than 115,000 hectares through Cresud in Argentina, Bolivia and Paraguay, and 65 thousand hectares through BrasilAgro.

The context looks appealing: beef cattle and dairy prices have remained firm and prospects for land prices are promising. We note a significant inflow of investors interested in the agribusiness sector, a circumstance that translates into the future possibility of selling appreciated farms, as we have done recently.

In terms of land value enhancement and transformation, we will continue to develop our land in Salta and Paraguay increasing the surface area allocated to agricultural operations in said locations by more than 50%, with the aim being an increase from 17 thousand to 27 thousand hectares as well as the development of a further 15 thousand hectares to go into production in the year 2012. In the Province of Salta, in addition to further enhancing properties for agricultural production, we also intend to increase the area intended for cattle breeding. As regards the first 3,000 hectares developed in Paraguay the previous year, which have gone into production during the year that has come to a close, we expect their yields to exhibit good performance as has been the case with the stabilized hectares in Agropecuaria Anta, capturing the extended land appreciation.

119

In Argentina we will continue with our strategy of supplementing agriculture in our own farms with agricultural activities in leased farms and in farms under concession. As regards leases, we will focus on farms closer to nucleus areas with more stable yields. In terms of our interest in the meat packing plant through Exportaciones Agroindustriales Argentinas S.A., we are assessing the courses of action to take in light of the industry’s outlook. Finally, as concerns our dairy business, following the sale of the La Juanita farm we will focus on milk production in our state-of-the-art dairy facility in El Tigre, which we plan to operate at full capacity.

Along the lines of our regional penetration strategy, we will complete the process to purchase BrasilAgro’s stake currently held by Tarpon Investimentos, which is in turn aligned with the objective to put together a regional portfolio with major development and appreciation potential.

Agribusiness offers very interesting prospects. We believe that companies such as Cresud, with a track record going back so many years and vast industry knowledge will have outstanding possibilities of taking advantage of the best opportunities arising in the market.

Corporate Governance

At Cresud we conceive that the conduct of corporate business should be governed by a rigorous scheme of good corporate governance practices, in strict compliance with our bylaws and applicable laws, and in an environment in which corporate bodies permanently interact and operate in accordance with the regulations in force. In this way, we are able to protect the interests of our corporation and our shareholders alike.

The Company is subject to the provisions of the Sarbanes Oxley Act; therefore, it assures the effectiveness of its internal control system for financial reporting purposes. Through the passage and enforcement of its Code of Ethics, it strictly observes the highest international standards with a view to protecting its investors. In addition, a summary of the most significant differences between Cresud’s corporate governance practices and the practices applied by US companies as per the standards set by the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) for such companies may be consulted in Spanish and English in the Company’s web page (www.CRESUD.com.ar). Therefore, for further illustration we refer to Exhibit I to this Annual Report, which includes the corporate governance report required by the Corporate Governance Code implemented by General Resolution No. 516/2007 issued by the Argentine Securities Commission (hereinafter, the “Code” and the “CNV”, respectively) including a brief description of certain matters related to the decision taking processes and internal control system as of the date of this Annual Report.

Audit Committee

Management uses the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the “COSO Report”) to assess effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting.

The COSO Report sets forth that internal control is a process, effected by an entity’s board of directors, management and other personnel, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the achievement of the entity’s objectives in the following categories:

•

Effectiveness and efficiency of operations

•

Reliability of financial reporting

•

Compliance with applicable laws and regulations

Based on the above, a company’s internal control system involves all levels of the company actively involved in exercising control:

•

the board of directors, by establishing the objectives, principles and values, setting the tone at the top and making the overall assessment of results;

•

the management of each area is responsible for internal control in relation to objectives and activities of the relevant area, i.e. the implementation of policies and procedures to achieve the results of the area and, therefore, those of the entity as a whole;

•

the other personnel plays a role in exercising control, by generating information used in the control system or taking action to ensure control.

In accordance with the Regime of Transparency in Public Offerings provided by Decree No. 677/01, the regulations of the Comisión Nacional de Valores and Resolutions No. 400 and 402 of the Comisión Nacional de Valores, our board of directors established an audit committee

126

which would focus on assisting the board in exercising its duty of care, compliance with disclosure requirements, the enforcement of accounting policies, management of our business risks, the management of our internal control systems, ethical conduct of our businesses, monitoring the sufficiency of our financial statements, our compliance with the laws, independence and capacity of independent auditors and performance of audit duties both by our company and our external auditors.

On November 3, 2008, our board of directors appointed Jorge Oscar Fernández, Pedro Damaso Labaqui Palacio, and Daniel Elías Mellicovsky, all of them independent members, as members of the audit committee. The board of directors named Jorge Oscar Fernández as the financial expert in accordance with the relevant SEC rules. We have a fully independent audit committee as per the standards provided in Rule 10(A)-3(b)(1).

b) Compensation

Compensation of directors

Under Argentine law, if the compensation of the members of the board of directors is not established in the by-laws of the company, it should be determined by the shareholders’ meeting. The maximum amount of total compensation to the members of the board of directors, including compensation for technical or administrative permanent activities, cannot exceed 25% of the earnings of the company. That amount should be limited to 5% when there is no distribution of dividends to shareholders, and will be increased proportionally to the distribution. When one or more directors perform special commissions or technical or administrative activities, and there are no earnings to distribute, or they are reduced, the shareholders’ meeting may approve compensation in excess of the above-mentioned limits.

The compensation of our directors for each fiscal year is determined pursuant to Argentine law, and taking into consideration whether the directors performed technical or administrative activities and our fiscal year’s results. Once the amount is determined, they are considered at the shareholders’ meeting.

At our shareholders meeting held on October 29, 2009 the shareholders approved an aggregate remuneration of Ps.4.5 million for all of our directors for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. At the end of the current fiscal year, the above mentioned remuneration was paid in full.

Compensation of Supervisory Committee

The shareholders meeting held on October 31, 2009 further approved by majority vote to pay a compensation of Ps. 20,000 to our Supervisory Committee.

Compensation of Senior Management

Our senior management is paid a fixed amount established by taking into consideration their background, capacity and experience and an annual bonus which varies according to their individual performance and our results.

The total and aggregate compensation of our senior management for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 was Ps.6.2 million.

127

Compensation of the Audit Committee

The members of our Audit Committee do not receive additional compensation other than that received for their services as members of our board of directors.

Capitalization plan for executive management

The Company maintains a capitalization plan for our key managers by means of contributions made by the employees and us.

Such plan is directed to certain selected employees and aims to retain them by increasing their total compensation package through an extraordinary reward that is granted upon the occurrence of certain circumstances.

Participation and contributions under the plan are voluntary. Once the invitation to participate has been accepted by the beneficiary, he/she is required to make two kinds of contributions: monthly contributions (salary based) and extraordinary contribution (annual bonus based). The suggested contribution is up to 2.5% of their monthly salary and up to 15.0% of their annual bonus. On the other hand, the Company’s contribution will be 200% of the employees´ monthly contributions and 300% of the extraordinary employees’ contributions.

The funds as a result of the participants’ contributions are transferred to a special independent financial vehicle created and located in Argentina as an Investment Fund approved by the CNV. Such funds are freely redeemable upon request of the participants.

Contributions made by the Company under the plan are transferred to another separate and independent financial vehicle (for example, a trust fund). In the future, participants will have access to 100% of the benefits of the plan (that is, our contributions made on the Participants’ behalf to the specially created financial vehicle) under the following circumstances:

•

ordinary retirement in accordance with applicable labor regulations;

•

total or permanent incapacity or disability; and

•

death.

In case of resignation or termination without good cause, the participant may redeem the amounts contributed by us only if he or she has participated in the plan for at least 5 years subject to certain conditions.

128

DIVIDENDS AND DIVIDEND POLICY

Pursuant to Argentine law, the distribution and payment of dividends to shareholders is valid only if they result from net and realized earnings of the company pursuant to annual financial statements approved by the shareholders. The approval, amount and payment of dividends are subject to the approval by our shareholders at our annual ordinary shareholders meeting. The approval of dividends requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote at the meeting.

In accordance with Argentine law and our by-laws, net and realized profits for each fiscal year are allocated as follows:

•

5% of such net profits is allocated to our legal reserve, until such reserve amounts to 20% of our capital stock;

•

a certain amount determined at a shareholders’ meeting is allocated to compensation of our directors and the members of our supervisory committee; and

•

additional amounts are allocated for the payment of dividends or to optional reserve funds, or to establish reserves for whatever other purpose our shareholders determine.

The following table sets forth the dividend payout ratio and the amount of dividends paid on each fully paid common share for the mentioned years. Amounts in Pesos are presented in historical, non-inflation adjusted Pesos as of the respective payment dates.


Year	Total Dividend	Dividend per Common Share ⁽¹⁾

(1)	Corresponds to per share payments. To calculate the dividend paid per ADS, the payment per share should be multiplied by ten. Amounts in Pesos are presented in historical Pesos as of the respective payment date.

Future dividends with respect to our common shares, if any, will depend on, among other things, our results of operations, cash requirements, financial condition, contractual restrictions, business opportunities, provisions of applicable law and other factors that our shareholders at a general shareholders’ meeting may deem relevant. As a result, we cannot give you any assurance that we will pay any dividends at any time in the future.

129

Exhibit I: Corporate Governance Report

General Resolution CNV 516/2007 of the Argentine Securities Commission (CNV)

Preliminary Considerations

Pursuant to its General Resolution No. 516/2007, the Argentine Securities Commission approved the minimum contents of the Corporate Governance Code (the “Code”) whereby all publicly traded companies shall, upon preparing their annual financial statements, include in their annual reports and as a separate exhibit, a report detailing whether they are heeding the Code recommendations, and if so, how, and explaining the reasons why they have not adopted the Code recommendations in whole or in part and whether they are planning to adopt them in the future. Therefore, on September 8, 2010 our Board of Directors approved the report prescribed by the Code, which constitutes an integral part of these financial statements and reads as follows:

SCOPE

1.) Relationship between the Issuer and the Conglomerate. The Board must thoroughly report any policies applicable to the relationship between the issuer and the conglomerate as such and its integral parts, if any.

In particular, the Board must report the transactions with affiliates and related companies and, in general, those that might be relevant to determine the degree of effectiveness and compliance with the loyalty, diligence and independence duties. Furthermore, the Board must report the transactions conducted with shareholders, management and the Board.

In connection with related companies, it is Company policy to enter into transactions in arm’s length conditions.

The transactions with related parties are, as prescribed by the law, subject to the Audit Committee’s opinion. The Audit Committee analyzes the reasonableness of transactions in the terms of Executive Decree No. 677/01 and issues reports in this respect.

In the event of the Company conducting transactions with its shareholders, management and/or the Board, it shall abide by the provisions under Law No. 19,550, section 271.

2) Inclusion of Corporate Governance matters in the Company’s By-laws. The Board must assess whether its Corporate Governance Code provisions are to be reflected, in whole or in part, in the Company’s by-laws, including the Board’s specific and general duties. The Board must make sure that the Company’s By-laws should lay down rules to compel directors to disclose any personal interests related to the decisions submitted to Board consideration in order to avoid vested interests.

The Board of Directors considers that some of the provisions referred to in the Corporate Governance Code (hereinafter, the “Code”) are already within the scope of Argentina’s currently applicable corporate law legislation.

However, the Board understands that other Code provisions should not be included in the current wording of the By-laws because if they were changed and/or fine-tuned in the future, the need would arise for amending the By-laws accordingly and this would be burdensome and costly. It is thus the Board’s understanding that the configuration of the new code as a body separate from the By-laws would help to its enforcement and contribute to a more agile review and adaptation of provisions, as necessary, based on whether the law mandates such inclusion or whether conduct of business calls for it.

133

As regards the Directors’ duty to avoid conflicts of interest, the Board considers that its actions are aligned to the Argentine Companies Law, Sections 272 and 273, and specifically to the provisions concerning this matter and that the Company’s Code of Ethics (hereinafter “Ethics Code”) deals specifically with this matter. Additionally, the Company’s transactions are underpinned by counterparty analyses, including suppliers, in order to identify potential related parties and thus prevent vested interests.

ABOUT THE BOARD IN GENERAL

3) The Board is responsible for the Company’s Strategy. The Board of Directors is in charge of managing the Company and approving the general policies and strategies appropriate to the different phases in the Company’s life cycles and in particular:

a) The strategic and/or business plan, as well as management objectives and annual budgets;

b) Investment and funding policies;

c) Corporate Governance policies;

d) Enterprise Social Responsibility policies;

e) Risk control and management policies as well as any other policy aimed at a regular follow-up on the Company’s internal reporting and control systems; and

f) The implementation of continuous education programs targeted at directors and management executives.

Being an essential part, and the raison d’être, of its management actions, the strategic and business plan for the Company is laid down by the Board. The Board also lays down and sets, together with the appropriate departments, management objectives and the annual budget.

In harmony with the preceding sub-paragraph, the Board considers, on an annual basis, the Company’s planned investments and the appropriate financing requirements.

The Company has in place Corporate Governance policies (in accordance with the Argentine Executive Decree No. 677/01 and/or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act) and the Board is responsible for approving the Corporate Governance Code.

The Company has in place policies in this respect, such as those implemented through donation to non-profits as would be the case of the donations channeled through the IRSA foundation. The Company also has in place policies to recycle paper and other reusable materials such as plastics and disposable packaging.

The Company enforces the US Sarbanes-Oxley Act as concerns business controls, corporate level controls and general controls through information technology. In this respect, the Board has approved organization-wide risk management control policies and sees to it that they are permanently updated. The same holds true in connection with internal reporting and control systems, which are deployed by the IT, Organization and Methods and Internal Audit departments, responsible in turn for keeping the Board abreast of new developments through the Audit Committee.

There are continuous education programs for directors and management executives, as discussed in further detail in paragraph 11).-

4) Management Control. The Board is duty-bound to verify that the above-mentioned strategies and policies are implemented, that the budget and the operations plan are met and to control management performance, i.e., to make sure that management meets the objectives laid down, including expected profits, in furtherance of the Company’s corporate interest.

The Company has in place a management control system pursuant to which each department is responsible for administering its budget and for seeing to it that it is duly executed; mandatory signature authority levels are assigned based on transaction amounts, etc. This control system is permanently monitored by the Internal Audit Department.-

134

On a quarterly basis, the Board assesses the degree of compliance with the annual budget, analyzes the potential causes of any deviations from budget and recommends to management any necessary corrective measures in furtherance of the Company’s corporate interest in order to align them with each matter’s best practices.

5) Reporting and Internal Control. Risk Management. The Board must report on whether it relies on risk control and management policies, stating also whether these are permanently updated in line with the applicable best practices and also on whether it relies on other policies which, in the same nature, are aimed at a periodical follow-up on the Company’s internal information and control systems.

The Company enforces these policies.

In this respect, there are internal committees, such as IT Security and Risks, that are permanently updating their activities in line with the best practices criteria.-

6) Audit Committee. The Board of Directors must state whether the Audit Committee members are nominated by any of its members or only by its Chairman.

The Company has had an Audit Committee in place since the year that audit committees became a legal requirement. The Company’s Audit Committee is made up by three independent members as prescribed by the applicable legal provisions.

The members of the Audit Committee are nominated by the Board in its entirety, in line with the provisions under Executive Decree No. 677/01 and they are chosen by a unanimous vote.

7) Number of Board Members. The Board of Directors is made up by the directors appointed by the Shareholders’ Meeting, or, if applicable, by the Supervisory Committee, in accordance with the requirements laid down in the Company’s By-laws.

The Board of Directors must determine, on a case-by-case basis, in harmony with the size of the issuer and abiding by the decision-making procedure, if its numerical composition is adequate so that, should the need arise, a well-grounded proposal should be submitted to the Shareholders’ Meeting to request a change in the Board’s numerical composition.

The numerical composition of the Board must include a sufficient number of independent directors. The Board must create a sufficient number of committees to carry out its mission effectively and efficiently.

According to the provisions under the Argentine Companies Law, the Board of Directors is appointed by the Shareholders’ Meeting.

As a matter of principle, the Board is made up by reliable prominent individuals of integrity, reputation and demonstrated ethics. Besides, they must be free from conflicts of interest and available to discharge their functions, which must be performed in full observance of the Company’s values; they should have demonstrated skills in the matters concerning their missions, master the best practices in corporate governance, be seasoned in legal entities management and possess a full understanding of the role to be played by a publicly traded company.

It is the Board’s understanding that in the light of the current circumstances and the size of the issuer, the number of directors laid down in the Company’s by-laws is fit and sufficient for the Company to conduct business guided by its management objectives for the fiscal year.

Besides, the Company has established several committees to focus closely on certain aspects of its management.

135

8) Board Membership. The Board of Directors must determine whether the enforcement of a policy geared towards the involvement of former executives in management is in the Company’s best interest and make any relevant recommendations.

The Board understands that there is no need, for the time being, to establish an express policy to permit former executives to participate in management. However, it does not rule it out either in so far as these executives’ knowledge of the company and their experience add a plus to their qualifications as directors, which are estimated to contribute to more efficient management.

9) Multiple Directorships. The Board must examine the advisability of directors and/or statutory auditors serving as such on a limited number of entities or the relevance of this aspect and make any recommendations it may see fit.

The Board finds it advisable for its members and statutory auditors to serve on the board of other companies making up the same conglomerate/group of companies as it helps to add synergies, reduce operating costs and ensure harmonious operation in the various companies, on top of the advantages this lends to management activities themselves.

10) Board Performance Assessment. The Board of Directors must, before holding the Ordinary Shareholders’ Meeting called to consider and adopt resolutions concerning the matters detailed in the Argentine Companies Law section 234, sub-sections 1 and 2, evaluate its own performance. To that end, the Board must prepare, in writing, a guide for assessing and laying down the criteria necessary to measure its performance.

As mandated by the Argentine Companies Law, the Board submits its own actions to the consideration by the Shareholders’ Meeting every year. The Company drafts an annual report that is made available to the shareholders, corporate governance bodies and regulators, in advance as prescribed by the applicable statutory terms and along the lines established by current rules and regulations, prior to the date set for the shareholders’ meeting.

The Board estimates that the term in advance as currently mandated is sufficient for the those concerned to duly weigh the information.

11) Director Training and Development. The Board must establish a continuous education program for its members and management executives in order to maintain and refresh their knowledge and skills and to boost Board efficacy overall.

The Company encourages its members to take part in training and professional update activities. In this respect, the Company has a policy in place, annually determined by the Board and senior management. In the Board’s opinion, it is vital to improved business management that the Company’s officers should be permanently trained and take part in local and international congresses and events in their respective fields of expertise.

DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE CRITERIA

12) Independent Directors. The Board of Directors must determine if the party that nominates a director is duty-bound to outwardly express, for public disclosure, sufficient evidence in support of his/her independence and make any relevant recommendations.

When it comes to director independence criteria, independent director nominations are accompanied by the reasons and sufficient expression of their condition as independent, as it arises from the minutes, which are widely disclosed through publication in the Argentine Securities Commission (CNV) Financial Information Highway and in the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

136

13) Appointment of Management Executives. The Board of Directors must determine, in connection with the selection, nomination and/or appointment of management executives if it is advisable to outwardly express the reasons underpinning the nomination and to disclose them to the public at large.

It is the Board’s opinion that there is no need, for the time being, to publicly disclose the reasons why management executives are appointed. This notwithstanding, and on account of the company being listed not only on the local securities exchange but also on other international securities markets, as has already been indicated, this recommendation is deemed to have been fully heeded.

14) Proportion of Independent Directors. The Board of Directors must outwardly express–and, if applicable, provide a description- whether it has in place a policy to maintain a proportion of independent directors on the total number of directors. There is also the duty to publicly disclose the proportion of executive directors, of non executive directors and of independent directors and to state the status of each Board member in this respect.

The proportion of independent directors in the Company’s board of directors is adequate as per the Argentine Securities Commission and the SEC requirements.

When it comes to the classification of directors as executive and non-executive, the Board understands that there is no need to implement those statuses for the time being.

The above notwithstanding, investors may rely on the so-called “20F” form, which contains an in-depth, personalized description by function of each one of the directors as well as the roster of the Steering Committee’s members.

15) Independent Directors’ Meetings. The Board must determine the suitability of holding Independent Directors-only meetings. When the Chairman of the Board is not an independent director, the independent directors must appoint a lead independent director to coordinate its committees operations, prepare Board meeting agendas and hold specific independent directors’ meetings.

At the date of this report, the Chairman of the Board is a non-Independent Director and the Board’s independent directors share in the mission to safeguard observance of the Company’s agenda together with the Board’s chair and the remaining Board members.

Given that the Audit Committee is entirely made up by independent directors and that it sessions at regular intervals, we consider that any minimum requirements in this respect have been met.

RELATIONS WITH SHAREHOLDERS

16) Information to Shareholders. The Board must report whether it encourages periodical informational meetings with shareholders other than shareholders’ meetings.

The Board of Directors maintains its shareholders informed through various channels, mostly, electronic. Thus, for instance, meeting attendance by remote communication equipment allows the Company to provide details and/or further explanation to foreign shareholders at the time of releasing its quarterly and annual financials.

The Company also has a web-site where it posts updated information and has appointed an officer in charge of investors relations from amongst the staff of the Corporate Finance Department.

Ever since 2003 the Company has been publishing in its web-site annual reports on financial statements and special quarterly earnings reports with a focus on those matters that can be of special interest to shareholders and investors.

137

In addition, the Company arranges presentations to the market and road shows concerning debt instrument issuances to respond to shareholders and investors’ enquiries.

17) Response to shareholders’ concerns and enquiries. The Board of Directors must specify whether the Company relies on a specific office for dealing with shareholders’ concerns and enquiries, except for those that may affect the Company’s future strategy or plans.

If any such arrangements were in place, the Board is to report on its duty to produce periodical reports on the matters consulted to be subsequently disclosed to shareholders, corporate governance bodies and regulators.

The Company has appointed an officer in charge of shareholders’ concerns and enquiries. The job title is Investors Relations Officer and has been appointed from amongst the staff of the Corporate Finance Department.

The Board analyzes the advisability and suitability of preparing general periodical reports to post in its website which could be of general interest to its shareholders in view of the concerns and enquiries voiced by investors, and always exercising care so that the Company’s strategic position is not adversely affected.

18) Minority Shareholder Presence at Shareholders’ Meetings. The Board of Directors is to render a well-grounded opinion as to the advisability of taking particular action to foster minority shareholder attendance at shareholders’ meetings.

The Company complies in full with the Argentine Companies Law and with the regulations laid down by local regulators (CNV) and the US regulators (SEC): such rules and regulations provide for multiple mechanisms for minority shareholder attendance at shareholders’ meetings. Their attendance at shareholders’ meetings is strictly accounted for and they exercise their rights to vote and to voice their opinions.

Additionally, as soon as the shareholders’ meetings are called, the Company performs a survey and a control of its minority and institutional shareholders, through Caja de Valores S.A. (shares) and Bank of New York (ADRs), proactively encouraging them to timely obtain any certification they may need to attend general and/or special shareholders’ meetings in due time.

19) The market for Tender Offers. The Board of Directors must analyze, based on the interests of minority shareholders, the advisability of resorting to the market for tender offers. If so, it must recommend specific measures to be adopted by the Company to foster the formation of such mechanism.

In particular, the Board is to primarily furnish grounds for its decision to adhere or not to the mandatory public tender offer regime (tag-along provisions).

Even though the Company resorted to tender offers in the past, in instances known by the controlling authorities, in the light of the conditions prevailing in the market and to safeguard the interests of shareholders, the Board of Directors does not think it advisable that tag-along provisions and/or a market for tender offers should be in place.

Pursuant to a resolution adopted by the Company’s shareholders’ meeting, the Company does not adhere to the mandatory public tender offer regime. The Board does not deem it necessary to recommend changes in this respect.

20) Dividend Policy. The Board of Directors must assess, in accordance with the Company’s particular conditions, the suitability of establishing policies for payment of cash dividends and must explain the conclusions reached and the reasons for such conclusions. If applicable, it must describe the mechanism applied to propose to the Shareholders’ Meeting whether or not to pay dividends.

138

The Board of Directors has been distributing cash dividends during the past 11 fiscal years. This has been the result of proposals submitted by the Board of Directors that are not governed by any specific policy.

COMMUNITY RELATIONS

21) Internet Communications. The Board of Directors must report whether the Company has its own, freely accessible web-site, where it posts information that is updated, easy to understand, sufficient and differentiated by target audience and whereby the Company provides information and responds to user concerns.

The Company has its own web-site http://www.cresud.com.ar/ to receive users’ inquiries, complaints and reports.

22) Web-site requirements. Should the Company rely on a web-site, the Company must guarantee that the information transmitted through electronic media should meet the highest confidentiality and integrity standards whilst simultaneously preserving information and maintaining any requisite logs.

The Company guarantees that the information posted in the web-site should meet the standards that are customary in these types of web-sites.

COMMITTEES

23) Committee to be chaired by an Independent Director. The Board of Directors must render an opinion as to the advisability of the Audit Committee being at all times chaired by an independent member.

The Board of Directors has decided as from the creation of its Audit Committee that it must be chaired by an independent director.

24) Rotation of Statutory Auditors and External Auditors. The Board of Directors must analyze the advisability of the Company having in place specific policies concerning rotation in Supervisory Committee membership and/or rotation of External Auditors; and in connection with the latter, whether the rotation includes the external audit firm or only the individuals.

The Audit Committee must assess on an annual basis the skills, independence and performance of the external audit and of the members of the audit committee.

The Company complies with the rotation requirement mentioned above, which, according to the rules and regulations of the CNV and the standards laid down by the Professional Council in Economic Sciences of the City of Buenos Aires, is mandatory. The Audit Committee assesses on annual basis the performance of the External Auditor and of the members of the audit team as per applicable rules and regulations and issues the respective reports to be submitted to the consideration of the Shareholders’ Meetings.

25) Dual capacity as Statutory Auditor and as External Auditor. The Board of Directors must consider if it is advisable that the members of the Supervisory Committee should also discharge functions as external auditors and/or belong to the firm that renders external audit services to the Company.

The Board of Directors considers that such dual capacity is admissible. And that is also the position adopted by the Shareholders’ Meeting that is required to consider, on an annual basis, such circumstance upon considering performance for the year and appointments.-

26) Compensation Systems. The Board of Directors is to render an express pronouncement on whether it is adequate or not to rely on a Remuneration Committee made up by non-executive directors and entrusted with the mission to establish clear director remuneration policies with special focus on respect for by-laws and/or contractual limitations based on the availability or not of profits.

139

If created, the Remuneration Committee is responsible for laying down Company policy concerning remuneration and benefits and it is therefore equally responsible for:

a) Reviewing and assessing its internal regulations on an annual basis and submitting any changes to consideration by the Board for its approval.

b) Reporting every year to the Board of Directors the valuation guidelines followed to determine the level of remuneration of the Company’s directors, senior management, advisors and consultants compared to companies sampled as comparable and recommending the amount of the remuneration to be paid to the Company’s directors, senior management, advisors and consultants;

c) Reviewing the competitive position of the Company’s policies and practices in connection to remunerations and benefits and approve any requisite changes;

d) Managing the stock option system;

e) Having a minimum numerical composition of three members;

f) Having a majority of independent directors;

g) Regularly reporting to the Board of Directors on the actions taken and the issues discussed in their meetings;

h) Meeting at least twice a year;

i) Requesting external advice if necessary;

j) Reporting the guidelines for determining the retirement plans of directors and of senior management.

The Chairman of the Remuneration Committee must be available to attend the Shareholders’ Meeting convened to approve Board remuneration in order to explain the Company’s policies.

Each member of the Remuneration Committee must evidence sufficient skills and experience in human resources, compensation policies and risk management.

The Board of Directors deems it adequate to not create a Remuneration Committee: the Board, given its inherent nature, establishes the remuneration of its officers in full compliance with the Argentine Companies Law.

In order to foster the continued development of its human capital and to fill vacant job positions with the persons fittest for the position from within the Company’s own ranks or from outside the Company, the Human Resources department has as a priority to train, to foster career advancement and to determine a competitive compensation package in harmony with the market conditions which are periodically monitored.

27) Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee. The Nominations and Corporate Governance Committee must lay down the standards and procedures inherent in the selection of directors and key executives and must determine the Company’s Corporate Governance policies and oversee their enforcement.

To that end it must:

a) Review and assess every year its internal regulations and propose to the Board any changes necessary for the Board’s approval;

b) Lay down the criteria that will guide the selection of new directors, the CEO and key executives;

c) Design the succession plans for the CEO and for key executives;

d) Identify and recommend the candidates for Board membership to be proposed by the Committee to the Shareholders’ Meeting;

e) Recommend the directors proposed for membership in the various Board committees;

NOTE 3: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Financial Statements of the Subsidiaries mentioned in Note 2 have been prepared based on accounting principles consistent with those followed by the Company for the preparation of its financial statements, as detailed in Note 2 of the basic financial statements.

High relevant valuation and disclosure criteria applied in preparing the financial statements of consolidated companies and not explained in the valuation criteria note of the holding company are as follows:

Inventories

•

Real Estate Business

A property is classified as inventories upon determination by the Board of Directors that the property is to be marketed for sale in the normal course of business over the next several years.

Properties classified as inventories have been valued at acquisition or construction cost restated as mentioned in Note 1.b. to the basic financial statements or estimated market value, whichever is lower. Costs include land and land improvements, direct construction costs, construction overhead costs, financial costs and real estate taxes.

Inventories on which advance payments that establish price have been received, and the operation’s contract terms and conditions assure that the sale will be effectively accomplished and that the income will be realized, are valued at net realizable value. Profits arising from such valuation are shown in the “Gain from valuation of assets at net realizable value” caption of the Statements of Income.

NOTE 3: (continued)

Properties held for sale are classified as current or non-current based on the estimated date of sale and the time at which the related receivable is expected to be collected by the Company.

The amount recorded in inventories, net of allowances set up, does not exceed their estimated recoverable value at the end of the year.

Property units to receive :

IRSA has rights to receive certain property units to be built. The units have been valued according to the accounting measuring standards corresponding to inventories receivables (the price established in the deed or net realizable value, as applicable) and there have been disclosed under “Inventories”.

Current investments

•

Real Estate Business

Current investments include retained interests in securitized receivables pursuant to the securitization programs of Tarshop S.A. and Metroshop S.A. with a realization term not exceeding twelve months, which have been accounted for under the equity method, net of the allowances for impairment, if applicable. In addition, includes time deposits carried at face value plus accrued interest at the end of the year

Non-current investments

•

Real Estate Business

Investments in debt securities:

Investments in debt securities were valued based on the best estimate of the discounted amount receivable, applying the corresponding internal rate of return estimated at the time of incorporation to assets, as IRSA will hold them to maturity.

Investments on controlled and related companies and other non-current investment

Includes CPs issued by the Trusts recorded at their values calculated by the equity method of accounting, net of the allowances for impairment, if applicable. In addition, the interests held in entities over which the Company has not control, common control or significant influence have been measured for accounting purposes at cost plus any declared dividends.

Banco Hipotecario S.A. and Banco de Crédito y Securitización S.A.:

The Financial Statements of Banco Hipotecario S.A. and Banco de Credito y Securitización S.A. are prepared in accordance with the Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (“BCRA”) standards. For the purpose of the valuation of the investment in IRSA, adjustments necessary to adequate the financial statements to the professional accounting standards have been considered.

In accordance with the regulations of the BCRA, there are certain restrictions on the distribution of profits by Banco Hipotecario S.A. to IRSA.

Tyrus S.A.:

Uruguay-based Tyrus S.A. and Torodur S.A. have been classified as not integrated into the IRSA’s operations in relation to its subsidiaries whose operations are carried out fully abroad. IRSA does not control foreign operations, which are conducted with a significant degree of autonomy respect to the IRSA’s own operations. Besides, such operations are mainly financed with funds originating in its own transactions or with local loans.

The Tyrus’s and Torodur’s assets and liabilities were converted into Pesos at the exchange rate in force at the close of the fiscal year. The Statement of Income accounts have been converted into Pesos at the exchange rates in force at the time of each transaction. Foreign exchange gains/losses arising from the conversion have been charged to the Shareholders’ equity caption in the line “Cumulative Translation Adjustment”.

Undeveloped parcels of lands:

IRSA acquires undeveloped land in order to provide an adequate and well-located supply for its residential and office building operations. IRSA’s strategy for land acquisition and development is dictated by specific market conditions where IRSA conducts its operations.

Land held for development and sale and improvements are stated at cost restated as mentioned in Note 1.b. to the basic financial statements or market value, whichever is lower.

Land and land improvements are transferred to inventories or fixed assets when construction commences or their trade is decided.

The values thus obtained, do not exceed their respective estimated recoverable values at year-end.

Business combinations

•

Real Estate Business

Significant entities on net asset acquired by the Company were recorded in line with the “purchased method” set forth in Technical Resolution No. 18. and Technical Resolution No. 21. All assets and liabilities acquired to third independent parties were adjusted to show their fair value. IRSA identified the assets and liabilities acquired including intangible assets such as: lease agreements acquired for prices and terms that are either higher or lower than in the market; costs of executing and delivering the lease agreements in force (costs that IRSA avoids incurring as a result of acquiring effective lease agreements); the value of acquired brands, the value of any deposits associated to the investment and the intangible value inherent in customer relations.

The process of identification and the determination of the purchased price paid is a matter that requires complex judgments and significant estimates.

IRSA uses the information contained in valuations estimated by independent appraisers as primary base for assigning the price paid for the land, the building and the shopping centers. The amounts assigned to all the other assets and liabilities are based on independent valuations or on the IRSA´s own analysis on comparable assets and liabilities. The current value of tangible assets acquired considers the property value as if it was empty.

If the price paid is larger than the value of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities as identified, the excess is considered to be goodwill.

Property and equipment, net

•

Agricultural Business

The tree plantations (wood) comprising this account has been valued at cost less respective accumulated depreciation as the Company has no intention to sell it, but use it in the production process.

Its cost was calculated according to a “Report on forestry mass increase” carried out by a forestry engineer at the request of the preceding shareholders of ANTA.

ANTA former Board of Directors based on such report as well as on owns estimates accepted the value of the tree plantations (wood) in Ps. 4,320.

Depreciation for the fiscal year was calculated based on the remaining concession term.

IRSA has allowances for impairment of certain rental properties.

Significant renewals and improvements, which improve or extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized and depreciated over its estimated remaining useful life. At the time depreciable assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and the accumulated depreciation of the assets are eliminated from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss is disclosed in the Statement of Income.

Other properties and equipment

Other properties and equipment properties are carried at cost, restated as mentioned in Note 1.b. to the basic financial statements, less accumulated depreciation at the year-end. Accumulated depreciation is computed under the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Allowance for doubtful accounts: IRSA allows for losses relating to trade receivables, leases and other accounts receivable. The allowance for losses is recognized when, based on current information and events, it is probable that IRSA will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the terms of the agreements. The allowance is determined on a one-by-one basis considering the present value of expected future cash flows.

While Management uses the information available to make assessments, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if future economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the assessments. Management has considered all events and/or transactions that are subject to reasonable and normal methods of estimations.

For impairment of assets: IRSA regularly asses its non-current assets for recoverability at the end of every year.

IRSA has estimated the recoverable value of rental properties based on their economic use value, which is determined based on estimated future cash flows discounted. For the rest of the assets (inventories and undeveloped parcels of land) IRSA makes a comparison with market values based on values of comparable properties.

If the recoverable value of assets, which had been impaired in prior years, increases, IRSA records the corresponding reversals of impairment loss as required by accounting standards.

NOTE 3: (continued)

For lawsuits: IRSA has certain contingent liabilities with respect to existing or potential claims, lawsuits and other proceedings, including those involving labor issues. IRSA accrues liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Such accruals are based on developments to date, IRSA’s estimates of the outcomes of these matters and IRSA’s lawyers’ experience in contesting, litigating and settling other matters.

As the scope of the liabilities becomes better defined, there may be changes in the estimates of future costs, which could have an effect on IRSA’s future results of operations and financial condition or liquidity.

Under this method, revenue is recognized based on the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs according to budgeted costs. IRSA does not commence gain or loss such time as the decision to proceed with the project is made and construction activities have begun.

Revenues for admission rights and rental of stores and stands

Leases with tenants are accounted for as operating leases. Tenants are generally charged a rent, which consists of the higher of (i) a monthly base rent (the “Base Rent”) and (ii) a specified percentage of the tenant’s monthly revenues (the “Percentage Rent”) (which generally ranges between 4% and 10% of tenant’s gross revenues).

Furthermore, pursuant to the rent escalation clause in most leases, the tenant’s Base Rent generally increases between 7% and 12% each year during the term of the lease. Minimum rental income is recognized following on the accrued criteria.

Certain lease agreements contain provisions, which provide for rents based on a percentage of revenues or based on a percentage of revenues volume above a specified threshold. APSA determines the compliance with specific targets and calculates the additional rent on a monthly basis as provided in the contracts. Thus, these contingent rents are not recognized until the required thresholds are exceeded.

NOTE 3: (continued)

Generally, APSA’s lease agreements vary from 36 to 120 months. Law No. 24,808 provides that tenants may rescind commercial lease agreements after the initial six months, upon not less than 60 days’ written notice, subject to penalties which vary from one to one and a half months rent if the tenant rescinds after the first year of its lease, and one month of rent if the tenant rescinds after the first year of its lease.

Additionally, APSA charges its tenants monthly administration fees related to the administration and maintenance of the common area and the administration of contributions made by tenants to finance promotional efforts for the overall shopping centers operations. The administration fees are prorated among the tenants according to their leases which vary from shopping center to shopping center. Administration fees are recognized monthly when earned.

In addition to rent, tenants are generally charged “admission rights”, a non refundable admission fee, that tenants may be required to pay upon entering into a lease or upon lease renewal. Admission right is normally paid in one lump sum or in a small number of monthly installments. Admission rights are recognized in earnings using the straight-line method over the life of the respective lease agreements.

•

Revenues derived from credit card transactions consist of commissions and financing income, charges to clients for life and disability insurance and for statements of account, among other. Commissions are recognized at the time the merchants’ transactions are processed, while the rest financial income is recognized when accrued. Income generated from granting consumer loans mainly includes financial interests, which are recognized by the accrued method during the fiscal year whether collection has or has not been made.

•

Lease agent operations

Fibesa S.A., company in which APSA has an interest of 99,99996%, acts as the leasing agent for APSA bringing together the Company and potential lessees for the retail space available in certain of APSA’s shopping centers.

NOTE 6: LAWSUITS AND CLAIMS IN COURSE

Agricultural Business

Ongoing litigation with the city of Villa Mercedes.

The Misdemeanours Court Judge to the city of Villa Mercedes issued resolution No. 2980/08 about the situation of Cactus in such city, determining that the Company had a 36-month term to stop operating and transferring the establishment located on the Provincial Route 2B.

In such 36-month period, the Company shall not host over 18,500 head of cattle.

Such brief was appealed by Cactus before the Municipality, which was negatively answered on April 7, 2009, by means of Decree No. 0662/09, thus ratifying the Misdemeanour Court Judge’s ruling. Under the administrative justice of the city of Villa Mercedes, Cactus would have until April 7, 2012 to conclude its operations and transfer the establishment.

Cactus has filed appeals with the High Court of Justice of the Province of San Luis, objecting the lawfulness of the rulings entered by the Misdemeanours Court Judge of Villa Mercedes. The appeals are pending and the High Court has not ruled on them.

The Company’s legal advisors are optimistic about the possibilities of reversing the Misdemeanours Court Judge’s ruling.

Irrespective of the above, Cactus is carrying out a plan to improve its relationship with the community of Villa Mercedes, seeking to strengthen the company’s position as a valuable member in the social and economic activity in the region, whose purpose is that the scheduled moving be reconsidered by municipal authorities.

balance of the additional sale price, in Argentine External Debt Bond (“EDB”) amounting to US$ 2.9 million. A ruling of the court of original jurisdiction sustained the claim. That ruling was appealed and the Court of Appeals confirmed the judgment of the court of original jurisdiction, demanding payment from the company of US$ 3.8 million, plus interest accrued through payment, punitive interest and attorney’s fees. In March 2004, LLH paid Ps. 9,156 in cash and EDB.

The plaintiff requested the court of original jurisdiction to initiate an incidental procedure for execution of sentence by performing a settlement through the Ministry of Economy, the procedure has been questioned by LLR. In view of the fact that the information provided was not sufficient to evaluate the amount settled by the Ministry of Economy, it was requested that the execution be suspended until there is a sentence on the complaint recourse filed to the National Supreme Court for the denial of the extraordinary recourse soliciting that the debt be converted to pesos.

In July 2008, the Court of Appeals notified LLR that by means of a resolution dated June 18, 2008 it had confirmed the settlement approved by the court of original jurisdiction.

On March 17, 2009, the National Supreme Court admitted the incidental procedure and decided to suspend the enforcement of the judgment in so far as the extraordinary appeal lodged by LLR is not resolved.

On February 23, 2010, the Supreme Court of Justice dismissed the action, which rendered the judgment final and compelled LLR to pay the amount calculated by the State. On April, 2010 LLR paid Ps. 13,122 in cash and bonds.

After LLR’s filing was duly notified to the plaintiff, the latter in turn stated that the amounts deposited were in line with the settlement that, having taken place on June 30, 2007, was eventually approved in the framework of these proceedings on December 5, 2007. As a result, the Argentine Agency of National Parks argued that the interest accrued until actual payment were to be adjusted by application of the Argentine Central Bank’s borrowing interest rate. As estimated by the Argentine Agency of National Parks, the outstanding balance, to be deposited by LLR would amount to US$ 0.7 million.

On June 10, 2010, LLR was notified of the newly-performed settlement: LLR filed an objection against it in due time and manner. On June 17, 2010, the court ordered that the plaintiff was to be served notice of the objection. As of June 30, 2010, LLR awaits notice of the most recently ordered service of process.

Based on the information provided by the legal advisors litigating these proceedings, LLR has booked Ps. 2,589 under “Other current liabilities – Creditor: Argentine Agency of National Parks”, that is, the amount in Pesos equivalent to the interest claimed by the plaintiff.

The file was passed for the judge to issue a pronouncement, the judge issued a decree adjourning the summoning of decisions to pronouncement in the understanding that there exists pre-judgment in respect of the penal cause filed against ex-officers of the Ministry of Defense and ex-directors of the Company. Consequently, the matter will not be solved until there is final judgment in penal jurisdiction.

The Management and legal advisors of Puerto Retiro S.A. estimate that there are legal and technical issues sufficient to consider that the request for bankruptcy will be denied by the court. However, taking the circumstances into account and the progress of the legal action, this position cannot be considered final.

Tarshop S.A. and Metroshop S.A. credit card receivables securitization program

Tarshop S.A. and Metroshop S.A. had ongoing securitization programs through which they transfer a portion of its customer credit card receivable balances to master trusts that issues certificates to public and private investors.

Under the securitization programs, Trusts may issue two types of certificates representing undivided interests in the Trusts - Títulos de Deuda Fiduciaria (“TDF”) and Certificates of Participation (“CP”), which represent debt and equity certificates, respectively. Interest and principal services are paid periodically to the TDF holders throughout the life of the security. CPs are subordinated securities which entitle the CP holders to share pro rata in the cash flows of the securitized credit card receivables, after principal and interest on the TDFs and other fees and expenses have been paid. During the revolving period no payments are made to TDF and CP holders.

Principal collections of the underlying financial assets are used by the Trust to acquire additional credit card receivables throughout the revolving period. Once the revolving period ends, a period of liquidation occurs during which: (i) no further assets are purchased, (ii) all cash collections are used to fulfill the TDF service requirements and (iii) the remaining proceeds are used to fulfill the CPs service requirements.

Amongst the factors considered by the Company to draw the conclusion outlined in the preceding paragraph are: (i) the factors that cause a decline in the quoted value and its historical performance (credit, interest rate, market, etc); (ii) the Company’s ability and intent to maintain the investment for a period long enough for the value to recover, (iii) how significant such decline in the quoted value may be to the Company and (iv) Banco Hipotecario’s business fundamentals. The assessment of a non-temporary decline is as both a qualitative and quantitative process, subject to several risks and uncertainties.

NOTE 1: ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Below there is a description of the most relevant accounting standards used by the Company in the preparation of these Financial Statements, which have been applied on a consistent basis from the previous fiscal year.

Presentation standards

These financial statements are stated in Argentine Pesos (Ps.) and have been prepared in accordance with the disclosure and valuation accounting standards contained in the Technical Resolutions issued by the Federación Argentina de Consejos Profesionales de Ciencias Económicas (FACPCE), as approved, with resolutions issued by the Consejo Profesional de Ciencias Económicas de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires (CPCECABA) and the Comisión Nacional de Valores (CNV).

The effects of inflation

The financial statements have been prepared in constant currency units recognizing the effects of inflation up to August 31, 1995. As from this date and under professional accounting standards and as required by the enforcement agency, financial statements as of December 31, 2001 were no longer restated. As from January 1st, 2002 and under professional accounting standards, effects for inflation restarted to be recognized considering that accounting measurements restated for the change in the currency purchasing power until August 31, 1995, as those whose original date fell between such date and December 31, 2001, were stated in pesos as of such last date.

On March 25, 2003, the Federal Executive issued Decree No. 664, which established that the financial statements for year ended after such date should be stated in nominal currency. Consequently, in conformity with Resolution No. 441/03 issued by the CNV, the Company discontinued the restatement of financial statements as from March 1, 2003. Such method does not agree with current professional accounting standards, which require that financial statements should be restated until September 30, 2003. However, given the little significance of inflation rates from March through September 2003, this departure has not generated a significant effect on the financial statements taken as a whole.

The rate used for restatement of items until February 28, 2003 was the domestic whole revenue price index published by the National Institute of Statistics and Census.

NOTE 1: (Continued)

Comparative Information

Amounts as of June 30, 2009, which are disclosed in these financial statements for comparative purposes have been taken from the financial statements as of such dates. Certain figures in the previously mentioned financial statements have been reclassified to be presented comparatively with those of the current year.

These financial statements have been prepared giving effect to the spin-off - merger mentioned in Note 14; consequently, the stand-alone financial statements as of June 30, 2010 are not comparable with those issued as of June 30, 2009.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assessments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at that date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year.

Estimates are used when accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciations and amortizations, income taxes, deferred liabilities, translation differences, provisions for lawsuits and contingencies, accrual for expenses and assets’ recoverable value and classification of the current and non-current assets and the current value of the assets and liabilities acquired in business combinations. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

NOTE 2: POLÍTICAS CONTABLES DE MAYOR RELEVANCIA

Cash and banks

Values obtained by this do not differ significantly from those that had been valued at their cash price estimated at the time of the transaction, plus interest and implied financial components accrued on the basis of the internal rate of return determined at such time.

Credits and short-term debts

Credits and short-term debts have been valued at nominal value plus accrued interest at the end of the year. Values obtained by this do not differ significantly from those obtained from the sum of money delivered and/or received, respectively, net of transaction costs, plus financial results accrued at the internal rate of return determined at the moment of the initial measurement.

Derivates financial instruments

Forwards relate to cereal commitments deliverable and receivable at a previously agreed price and to purchase and sale of US dollars and receivable.

NOTE 2: (Continued)

Acquisitions of equity interests in companies

The significant acquisitions of companies are booked according to the “acquisition method” as established by Technical Resolution No. 18 and Technical Resolution No. 21. This implies identifying and determining the current values of assets and liabilities acquired, a process requiring complex judgments and significant estimations.

Goodwill

•

Goodwill

The goodwill represents the excess acquisition cost above the market value of net assets from those subsidiaries acquired at the equity percentage.

The residual value of the goodwill generated by acquiring interests in the companies has been disclosed in the Investments on controlled and related companies account (Schedule C).

Upon defining the useful life, the following factors have been considered: (i) nature and expected life of acquired businesses; (ii) stability and expected life of the respective industry branch; (iii) effects that the obsolescence of products, changes in demand and other economic factors may have on the acquired business; (iv) feasibility of maintaining the required disbursement value to obtain future economic benefits from the acquired business and (v) the control period over the acquired business and legal or contractual provisions that may affect its useful life.

Based on these factors, the Company has estimated that it is not possible to estimate the specific useful life for the goodwill generated by applying the “acquisition method” provided by Technical Resolution No. 18, and it has therefore determined that they shall have an undefined useful life.

The values thus obtained, do not exceed their respective estimated recoverable values at the end of the year.

The value of these assets does not exceed its economic use value as of year-end.

NOTE 2: (Continued)

Minimum presumed income tax

The Company determines the minimum presumed income tax applying the prevailing rate of 1% on computable assets at fiscal year-end. This tax is supplementary to the income tax. The Company’s tax liability for each fiscal year will be the higher of these two taxes.

However, if the minimum presumed income tax exceeds the income tax in any fiscal year, such excess may be computed as payment on account of the income tax that may be payable in any of the following 10 (ten) fiscal years.

The Company has recognized the minimum presumed income tax earned in the year and paid in previous years as a credit, because it considers that it may be computed as prepayment of income tax in future periods.

NOTE 19: (Continued)

This decision was taken to contribute to the decrease in the draw down and reduction of fluctuations in the listed price of the Company’s shares aiming at contributing to strengthening the shares on the market, minimizing possible temporary imbalances that there may be between the supply and demand on the market, considering the excessive cost of capital that the current listed prices showed.

Later, the terms and conditions for the acquisitions were amended on many occasions by the Board of Directors due to the plummeting market and worsened in turn by the general context in international. Some amendments were:

•

The maximum amount to be invested was increased to Ps. 82,000.

•

The maximum amount of shares subject to acquisition to up to 30,000,000 shares of common stock, face value of Ps. 1 per share and entitled to 1 vote per share, in shares or American Depositary Shares (“ADR’s”) representing 10 shares each as provided by applicable regulations.

•

The price to be paid for the shares was established between a minimum Ps. 1 per share and up to Ps. 3.50 per share.

•

The deadline to make acquisition was successively extended.

As of June 30, 2009, purchases of proprietary shares amounted to 2,935,641 ADRs and 643,590 shares of common stock paying an amount of US$ 21 million and Ps. 1,745, respectively.

In accordance with the law of commercial companies, the board shall dispose of the shares acquired within a period of one year unless an extension is provided for in Assembly. On November 13, 2009, the Board of Directors seeking to comply with the mandate granted by the Meeting of Shareholders on October 29, 2009, resolved to start attributing and assigning on a prorate basis 25,000,000 proprietary treasury shares with a face value of Ps. 1 entitled to 1 vote each. Such assignment was made as from November 23, 2009, at 0.5301792784 shares per share with a face value of Ps. 1 each and 0.5301792784 shares per ADR. As upon making the attribution calculation, it yielded the need to distribute fractions of shares, they were settled in cash under the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange Regulations. Therefore, 754 shares have not been attributed and they remain in the Company’s treasury together with previously existing 5,000,000 shares.

The Plan is addressed to employees selected by those Companies with the purpose of keeping them in the company and increasing their total compensation through an extraordinary reward, provided that certain specific conditions are complied with.

Participation and contributions to the Plan are on a voluntary basis. Once the beneficiary (the “Participant”) has accepted, he will be able to make two types of contributions: a monthly one (based on the salary) and an extraordinary one (based on the annual bonus). The suggested contribution is up to 2.5% of the salary and up to 15% of the annual bonus.

Funds collected from participants’ contributions will initially be sent to an independent financial means especially created for such purpose and placed in Argentina as a Common Investment Fund, which will be approved by the C.N.V. Such funds will be freely redeemed under the requirement of the participants.

The funds arising from the Company contributions will flow to other independent financial means separated from the previous one.

NOTE 26: FINANCIAL AND CAPITAL MARKET SITUATION

As from the last months of 2008, the world’s principal financial markets have suffered the impact of volatility conditions as well as lack of liquidity and credit. Consequently, stock-market rates showed a significant fall worldwide together with an evident economic deceleration.

As soon as the largest economies in the world were intervening by injecting liquidity into the markets, interest rates responded with a downward trend which favored, in 2009 and 2010, the recovery of stock and debt market indices. As regards the real economy at the global level, it remains to be seen whether the measures implemented by the different governments have had lasting positive effects.

As regards Argentina in 2008, the quotation of Government and corporate securities in the stock markets sustained dramatic drops whereas interest rates, the country risk rate and the exchange rates went upwards. In 2009 and during 2010, securities started to recover, particularly the instruments issued by the Argentine Government, with the ensuing impact on the valuation at fair value of the financial assets holdings maintained by Banco Hipotecario in its portfolio through our investment in IRSA.
