STATUTORY AUDIT COMMITTEE'S REPORT

To the Shareholders of

CENTRAL PUERTO S.A.

Introduction

1. Pursuant to the regulations set forth in Subsection 5, Section 294 of the Argentine Business Entities Act No. 19950 as amended (the "Business Entities Act") and the Rules set forth by the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange on the 'Authorization, Suspension, Withdrawal and Cancellation of the listing of Securities' ("BCBA Listing Rules"), we have examined the attached individual and consolidated financial statements of CENTRAL PUERTO S.A. and its subsidiaries, which are attached herein and which include: (a) the individual and consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2022, (b) the individual and consolidated income and comprehensive income statement for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, and the consolidated statement of changes in shareholders' equity as of March 31, 2022 and the individual and consolidated statement of cash flow for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 and (c) a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. The above mentioned documents are the responsibility of the Company's Board of Directors in the execution of its exclusive duties.

12

Scope of the work

2. Our work consisted of verifying that the information contained in the mentioned financial statements was consistent with the information about the Company's decisions which were stated in the Minutes, and that those decisions complied with the law and the Bylaws, both regarding formal and documentary requirements. For the purpose of performing this task, we have considered the independent auditor's reports by the external auditor Germán E. Cantalupi, member of the firm Pistrelli, Henry Martin y Asociados S.R.L. Such reports, dated May 12, 2022 were issued in compliance with the International Standard on Review Engagement 2410 "Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity", issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board ("IAASB"). We have not performed any management control, and therefore, we have not assessed the criteria and business decisions regarding the administration, financing, commercialization and production, since it is the Board who bears exclusive responsibility for these matters. Therefore, our responsibility is limited to state an opinion regarding those documents and it is not extended to acts, omissions or circumstances that we do not know, or that could not be inferred from the analysis of the information received by this Statutory Audit Committee during the execution of its duties. We consider that our work and the external auditor's reports are a reasonable ground on which we can base our report.

Conclusion

3. Based on our review and the reports dated May 12, 2022, issued by accountant Germán E. Cantalupi, as member of the firm Pistrelli, Henry Martin y Asociados S.R.L, which review and reports were mentioned in paragraph 1, we found no evidence to conclude that the condensed interim financial statements mentioned in paragraph 1 were not prepared, in all their significant aspects, pursuant to the relevant regulations established in the Argentine Business Entity Act and the Argentine Securities Commission and the IAS 34.

Report on other legal and regulatory requirements

4. Pursuant to current regulations, we inform that:

a) The individual and consolidated financial statements indicated in paragraph 1 arise from accounting records carried, in their formal aspects, pursuant to the legal dispositions in force.

13

b) The individual and consolidated financial statements indicated in paragraph 1 are recorded in the book Inventories and Balances and they comply with the Argentine Business Entities Act and the pertinent resolutions by the Argentine Securities Commission, to the scope of our competence.

c) We have read the "Informative Summary for the periods ended March 31, 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019 and 2018" and regarding our scope of work, we have no observations to make.

d) It is hereby expressed that the Company has complied with the provisions by Section 294 of the Argentine Business Entities Act which were considered necessary pursuant to the circumstances, in order to verify the compliance by the Company's governing bodies with the Argentine Business Entities Act, the Bylaws and the decisions adopted in the Meetings, and there are no observations to be made.

City of Buenos Aires, May 12, 2022.
