City of Buenos Aires, August 21, 2020

Ref.: LOMA NEGRA C.I.A.S.A. – Relevant Event
Dear Sirs,
We are writing in order to comply with section 2, Chapter I, Title XII of the CNV Rules (2013 revised version).
In this regard, we inform that today Loma Negra C.I.A.S.A. (the “Company”) sold its total stake in the Paraguayan company Yguazú Cementos S.A. (“Yguazú”), which represents 51.0017% of the capital
stock of Yguazú. The sale was made to the local shareholder of Yguazú.
The goal of the Company is to seek and execute high potential projects, for this reason, after having started marketing operations in Paraguay in 2000, built and operated the factory since 2013,
and currently reaching high standards of production and profitability, we have finally decided to sell it.
The Company considers that the result obtained by this operation is very beneficial for the Company and is in line with maximizing value for its shareholders.
The proceeds will be applied to partially repay existing debt, and the Company is evaluating alternatives to return capital to its shareholders.
Finally, it is informed that all the regular and alternate directors appointed by the Company in Yguazú, Sergio Damián Faifman, Marcos Isabelino Gradin, Gerardo Oscar Diez and Dardo Ariel
Damiano, have resigned from their positions as of today.
Sincerely,
___________________
