GRUPO CLARIN S.A. Offering of 50,000,000 Class B Common Shares in the Form of Class B Shares and Global Depository Shares GRUPO CLARIN S.A. Offering of 50,000,000 Class B Common Shares in the form of Class B Shares and Global Depository Shares This offering circular (the “Offering Circular”) relates to a global offering (the “Offering”) by Grupo Clarín S.A. (“Grupo Clarín” or the “Company”), a sociedad anónima organised under the laws of Argentina, and the selling shareholders named in this Offering Circular (the “Selling Shareholders”) of 50,000,000 class B common shares of the Company, with nominal value of one (1) Peso (as defined herein) and one vote per share, and with rights to dividends equal to those of the other outstanding shares of the Company. Of the class B common shares being offered, the Company is selling 15,000,000 class B common shares (the “New Shares”) and the Selling Shareholders are selling 35,000,000 class B common shares (the “Selling Shareholder Shares” and together with the New Shares, the “Class B Shares”). The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Selling Shareholder Shares. As part of the Offering, the Company and the Selling Shareholders are offering Class B Shares, in the form of global depositary shares (“GDSs” and, together with the Class B Shares, the “Securities”) evidenced by global depositary receipts (“GDRs”) in the United States of America (the “United States”) and other countries outside Argentina through the international underwriters named in this Offering Circular. Each GDS represents two Class B Shares. The Company is offering 3,500,000 New Shares in the form of 1,750,000 GDSs in the United States and other countries outside Argentina through the international underwriters named in this Offering Circular. The Company is concurrently offering 11,500,000 New Shares in Argentina through the Argentine placement agents named in this Offering Circular under a Spanish language prospectus. The Selling Shareholders are offering 35,000,000 Selling Shareholder Shares, in the form of 17,500,000 GDSs in the United States and other countries outside Argentina through the international underwriters named in this Offering Circular. The total number of Class B Shares in the international tranche of the Offering and the Argentine tranche of the Offering is subject to reallocation between these tranches. The closings of the international tranche of the Offering and the Argentine tranche of the Offering will be conditioned upon each other. AN INVESTMENT IN THE CLASS B SHARES OR GDSs INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CAREFULLY READ THIS OFFERING CIRCULAR WITH SPECIAL ATTENTION TO “RISK FACTORS”. Offer Price: Ps.29.14 per Class B Common Share and U.S.$18.50 per Global Depository Share The Offering does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation would be unlawful. The Offering consists of (a) an offering of GDSs in the United States to qualified institutional buyers (each a “QIB”) as defined in Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) in reliance on Rule 144A (the “Rule 144A GDSs”), (b) an offering of GDSs outside the United States and Argentina (the “Regulation S GDSs”) in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”) and (c) an offering of Class B Shares to investors in Argentina in reliance on Regulation S. The Class B Shares and the GDSs have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. The Class B Shares and the GDSs are subject to selling and transfer restrictions in certain jurisdictions. Prospective subscribers of the Class B Shares and GDSs should read the restrictions described under “Selling and Transfer Restrictions”. Joint Global Coordinators and International Bookrunners Goldman Sachs International Credit Suisse International Lead Manager JPMorgan International Co-Managers Merrill Lynch International Itaú Securities Offering Circular dated 19 October 2007 (continued on next page) The shareholders meeting of the Company held on 20 July 2007 approved a capital increase of up to Ps.30,000,000 to permit the issuance of the New Shares and the additional class B common shares corresponding to the Over-allotment Option (as defined herein) and established the minimum Offer Price (as defined herein) of the New Shares to be issued. The Company is offering 15,000,000 New Shares and up to 2,250,000 additional class B common shares pursuant to the Over-allotment Option. The Company’s existing shareholders have pre-emptive rights to subscribe New Shares in a number sufficient to maintain their proportionate holdings in the Company’s total capital stock. In addition, the Company’s existing shareholders have accretion rights, which permit them to subscribe New Shares and additional class B common shares corresponding to the Over-allotment Option that are not subscribed by other existing shareholders in proportion with the percentage of shares for which the subscribing existing shareholder has exercised its pre-emptive rights. In order to permit the Offering, the Company’s existing shareholders, including the Selling Shareholders, have waived the exercise of their pre-emptive and accretion rights in connection with the offering of the New Shares and additional class B common shares corresponding to the Over-allotment Option, representing 100% of the pre-emptive and accretion rights in respect of the Company’s capital increase. New shareholders of the Company will not have such preemptive and accretion rights in respect of this capital increase. The Company will cancel the portion of the capital increase not sold in the Offering or the Over-allotment Option. The Company and certain Selling Shareholders have granted Credit Suisse Securities (Europe) Limited an option (the “Over-allotment Option”), exercisable for 30 days following the announcement of the definitive Offer Price for the GDSs, to purchase additional class B shares in the form of GDSs amounting to up to 15% of the total number of Class B Shares sold in the Offering solely to cover over-allotments, if any. See “Subscription and Sale”. All information contained in this Offering Circular (including Annex A) other than the section “Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statement of Income” and all references to that section contained elsewhere in this Offering Circular (the “Prospectus”) constitute a prospectus relating to the Company prepared in accordance with the prospectus rules (the “Prospectus Rules”) of the U.K. Financial Services Authority (the “Financial Services Authority”) made under Section 73A of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the “FSMA”). See “Subscription and Sale — European Economic Area”. This Offering Circular will be made available to the public in accordance with the Prospectus Rules. Prior to the Offering there has been no market for the GDSs or the Class B Shares. Applications have been made (i) to the Financial Services Authority, in its capacity as competent authority under the FSMA, for a listing of up to 25,000,000 GDSs to be issued on the GDS Closing Date (as defined below), up to 3,750,000 additional GDSs to be issued pursuant to the Over-allotment Option, as described herein, and up to 77,015,610 additional GDSs to be issued from time to time against the deposit of Class B Shares with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as depositary (the “Depositary”), to be admitted to the official list of the Financial Services Authority (the “Official List”), and (ii) to the London Stock Exchange plc (the “London Stock Exchange”) for such GDSs to be admitted to trading on the London Stock Exchange’s EEA Regulated Market (as defined in the Investment Services Directive 93/22/EC) (the “Regulated Market”). Admission of the GDSs to the Official List and to trading on the Regulated Market is expected to take place on 25 October 2007, following closing and settlement therefor on or around 24 October 2007 (the “GDS Closing Date”). Conditional trading in the GDSs and the class B common shares on the London Stock Exchange and on the Mercado de Valores de Buenos Aires, (the “MERVAL”) is expected to commence on a when-and-if-issued basis on 19 October 2007. All dealings in the GDSs prior to the commencement of unconditional dealings will be of no effect if admission does not take place and will be at the sole risk of the parties concerned. We have obtained authorisation to have our class B common shares (including the Class B Shares) and our class C common shares listed on the Bolsa de Comercio de Buenos Aires, the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange (the “BCBA”) and to have our class B common shares (including the Class B Shares) admitted to trading on the BCBA under the symbol “GCLA”. The Securities offered hereby are being offered by Goldman Sachs International and Credit Suisse Securities (Europe) Limited (the “Joint Global Coordinators and International Bookrunners”), J.P.Morgan Securities Inc. (the “International Lead Manager”) and Itaú Securities, Inc. and Merrill Lynch International (the “International Co-Managers,” and together with the Joint Global Coordinators and International Bookrunners and the International Lead Manager, the “International Underwriters”) or through their selling agents, when, as and if delivered to and accepted by them and subject to their right to reject any order in whole or in part. The Euroclear System (“Euroclear”) and Clearstream Banking société anonyme (“Clearstream”) are expected to accept the GDSs for settlement in their respective book-entry settlement systems. The Regulation S GDSs and the Rule 144A GDSs will be evidenced by a Master Regulation S Global Depository Receipt (the “Master Regulation S GDR”) and a Master Rule 144A Global Depositary Receipt (the “Master Rule 144A GDR” and, together with the Master Regulation S GDR, the “Master GDRs”) each registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) in New York.

    IASSIST REGIONAL REPORT 2011‐2012 EUROPEAN REGION Iris Alfredsson, Swedish National Data Service (SND), May 30 2012 CROSS‐EUROPEAN COLLABORATIONS One of the main obstacles for the realisation of pan‐European Research Infrastructures has been the absence of a suitable legal and governance framework of European level. For this reason a new legal structure, ERIC – European Research Infrastructure Consortium” was developed by the European Commission together with ESFRI, the European Strategy Forum on Research Infrastructures in 2009. Five European research infrastructures within the social science and the humanities – CESSDA, CLARIN, DARIAH, ESS and SHARE ‐ are currently in the process of becoming, or has recently become, an ERIC. CESSDA – COUNCIL OF EUROPEAN SOCIAL SCIENCE DATA ARCHIVES The 2011 CESSDA Expert Seminar was held in October at FORS in Lausanne, Switzerland. 21 persons from 12 countries attended the seminar on the topic of Question Data Banks. The 2012 General Assembly was held in April at SND in Gothenburg, Sweden. At the meeting a new CESSDA member was welcomed, the Lithuanian Data Archive for Social Science and Humanities (LiDA), based in Kaunas. In 2012, CESSDA will focus on becoming an ERIC. The General Assembly decided to launch a self‐evaluation project of all the member archives. The structured self‐evaluations will provide information on how the CESSDA members meet the requirements of the CESSDA‐ERIC Statutes, and which members need advice and support on various parts of the activities. Twelve European countries have signed the Memorandum of Understanding to commit their financial and political support for the setting up of a CESSDA ERIC.

A Brief History of Archiving in Language Documentation, with an Annotated Bibliography Ryan E. Henke University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa Andrea L. Berez-Kroeker University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa We survey the history of practices, theories, and trends in archiving for the pur- poses of language documentation and endangered language conservation. We identify four major periods in the history of such archiving. First, a period from before the time of Boas and Sapir until the early 1990s, in which analog materials were collected and deposited into physical repositories that were not easily acces- sible to many researchers or speaker communities. A second period began in the 1990s, when increased attention to language endangerment and the development of modern documentary linguistics engendered a renewed and redefined focus on archiving and an embrace of digital technology. A third period took shape in the early twenty-first century, where technological advancements and efforts to develop standards of practice met with important critiques. Finally, in the cur- rent period, conversations have arisen toward participatory models for archiving, which break traditional boundaries to expand the audiences and uses for archives while involving speaker communities directly in the archival process. Following the article, we provide an annotated bibliography of 85 publications from the literature surrounding archiving in documentary linguistics. This bibliography contains cornerstone contributions to theory and practice, and it also includes pieces that embody conversations representative of particular historical periods.

Since the days of de Tocqueville and Locke, media has been regarded as crucial in the prevention of au- thoritarianism and the loss of individual liberties. 2 As integral as free- dom of the press is to American society,3 many nations around the world still practice forms of prior censorship on media outlets and individual opinions alike.4 In fact, earlier this year, the Egyptian government or- dered the shutdown of the five internet service providers in Egypt while a nation-wide anti-government protest was taking place.5 Reiterating American ideals, President Obama urged Egyptian authorities to refrain from any violence and stated, "[t]he people of Egypt have [a] .
