I’m ready to take the actions that corresponds to such illegal actions.
No man, no matter his might, holds sway over sanctity of your soul and conscience, these are
territories no one can claim, for they are yours alone to keep pure and untainted.
Regards,
Jorge

Re: Letter of the CEO of the Company to the Board regarding press releases purportedly
issued by Continental Towers’ subsidiaries
The press releases, which claim to have been issued by Continental Towers El Salvador Ltda. De
C.V., Continental Towers de Panamá S. de R.L., and Collocation Technologies de Panamá S. de
R.L., are consistent with the pattern of defamatory, false and inaccurate statements that have been
made in the past against me and other members of the independent Management Team of the
Company (the “Management Team”) by Mr. Jorge Hernández, and/or through his agents and
related entities. In this specific case, using their control over the Company´s administration and
representatives through its SG&A contract.
In this case, the press releases seek to communicate the false statement that the different
subsidiaries of the Company are “completely separated” from “past employees and individuals
facing arrest warrants”, referring to different members of the Management Team, including and
naming myself. Some of the press releases also include statements by Ms. Antonieta Granillo, who
falsely presents herself as General Manager of Continental Towers El Salvador, to the effect that
I have been removed from my position with Continental Towers since October 2021.
As a preliminary matter, I note that the subsidiaries of the Company are not allowed, under the
Shareholders’ Agreement, to “hire or fire” any of the members of the Management Team, 1 let
alone publish a press release without the required approval. The subsidiaries of the Company are
also not permitted to represent the formal position of the Company, especially when by doing so
they are, as in this case, misrepresenting facts and spreading outright falsehoods. I urge to the
Board to determine if this press releases have been paid with Company´s funds under Juan
Francisco Quisquinay´s custody and control.
In this regard, it is striking that the press releases were published between February 20 and
February 21, 2024, immediately following decisions by Judge Kaplan of the United States District
1
See Shareholders’ Agreement, October 22, 2015, section 4.4(a)(vi).
2
Court for the Southern District of New York (the “SDNY”) in which he (i) confirmed the Second
Partial Final Award (the “SPFA”) issued in the AAA Arbitration hearing the dispute between the
Company’s shareholders (the “AAA Arbitration”), and (ii) granted the Anti-Suit Injunction
requested by Peppertree and AMLQ to terminate the commercial proceedings initiated in British
Virgin Islands against the Company and me (the “Anti-Suit Injunction”). As the Board is aware,
in confirming the SPFA, the SDNY has fully recognized the account of harassment and malicious
judicial persecution by Mr. Hernández and the A Shareholder against myself and the other
Members of the Management Team, as set forth in the SPFA. Moreover, in confirming the SPFA
and granting the Anti-Suit Injunction, Judge Kaplan also recognized my position as CEO of the
Company. Indeed, as the Anti-Suit Injunction noted, the SPFA has “definitively resolved” that I
am the CEO of the Company.
On the basis of the above, it is clear that the press releases constitute a reckless escalation of the
defamatory actions against the Company and its independent Management Team, and I believe
they are being promoted by Mr. Hernández and his agents, with the aim of continuing to harass
the Management Team and to devalue the Company. I urge the Board to investigate and take
immediate action to address the issuance of these improper and harmful press releases.
It seems like this is a continued campaign that only affects the sale process of the Company, now
confirmed by Judge Kaplan and the Second Circuit of Appealing Court. The only remaining path
to block the sale of the Company, seems to be reducing the value of Continental Towers to levels
in which a healthy bidding process could not be achievable. I also urge the Shareholders to review
the legal consequences of the individuals that are been used for perverse purposes that could bring
them several legal consequences in their origin countries and in the United States of America.
These actions continue to require the members of the Management Team to adopt security
measures and to fully reserve their rights and those rights of the Company. In particular, the
members of the Management Team reserve their right to adopt any necessary protective actions
against the individuals ultimately responsible for the attacks against them, including as it may be
necessary, pursuing the current investigation process including among others the Federal Bureau
of Investigation all available claims in the United States or other jurisdictions.
The members of the independent Management Team stand ready to cooperate on these issues with
the Board and any relevant authorities. I continue to reserve all my rights against all relevant
parties, and those rights of the Company, including the right to share this information with any
relevant outlet media.
Sincerely,

Secretary General of Frente Farabundo Martí para la Liberación Nacional (FMLN)
linked to mafia organization in Santa Tecla
January 7, 2024
By Redacción UH
The Secretary General of the political party Frente Farabundo Martí para la Liberación
Nacional (FMLN), Oscar Ortiz, has been linked to a mafia organization in Santa Tecla.
Ortiz faces a complaint filed against him before the Public Prosecutor’s Office for alleged
corruption when he was the municipality’s mayor.
Ortiz did not comply with the agreements signed with COLLOCATION
TECHNOLOGIES EL SALVADOR, LTDA DE C.V. for the installation of
telecommunication towers. At that time, Jorge Leonel Gaitán Paredes was linked to this
company. His son, Jorge Alberto Gaitán Castro, has several pending complaints, and is
closely linked to this case.
Gaitán reported that the Municipality decided to terminate all agreements. In addition, the
permits for the installation of the towers were revoked, despite the fact that the company
had already invested $1.2 million for the installation of towers.
If found guilty, the people involved could face a conviction for arbitrary acts, bribery and
illicit negotiations.

Guatemalans led by Jorge Gaitán Paredes were in charge of stealing from
companies in El Salvador
January 22, 2024
Following a complaint filed before the Public Prosecutor’s Office of the Republic of El
Salvador, the Guatemalan Public Prosecutor’s Office ordered a hearing against members
of a gang of Guatemalans and Salvadorans led by Jorge Gaitán Paredes and his son, Jorge
Alberto Gaitán Castro, for embezzling more than 1.2 million dollars.
The company that filed the complaint provides telecommunication infrastructure
solutions to entities in Central America, and, according to the investigations, the Gaitáns
used their position in the company to take money under the cover of travel expenses,
cheques and transactions to personal accounts, draining the funds of the company.
In El Salvador, the Gaitáns had the support of Carol Echeverría, an executive fond of
digital platforms, who was the mastermind coordinating the looting of computer
equipment together with Marisol Umaña and Juan Ignacio Berger, who are accused of the
crimes of use of information, destruction of computer records, aggravated theft and
ideological falsehood.

Asunto: FW: INFORMATION
I am writing on a very serious matter. It appears that Goldman Sachs through its subsidiary
AMLQ has been funding Jorge Gaitan Castro to force his position of CEO of Continental
Towers.
A company where Goldman Sachs through its subsidiary AMLQ has an investment. Jorge
Gaitan Castro has serious criminal investigations in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras.
Goldman Sachs through its subsidiary AMLQ has funneled millions of dollars in his defense
trying to squash all evidence of his wrongdoing in order to further their narrative in an arbitration
case. They have hidden information from arbitration panel and from a federal Judge. They
refuse to correct the records and are poised to force Jorge Gaitan Castro as CEO of the
company so he can act as a proxy on they behalf. Millions of dollars have been funneled to
questionable law firm like Carrillo asociados and Ana Lucia Alejos Botran in Guatemala.
We encourage you to do a full investigation on this law firms. There is enough information in
the internet about this law firms funded directly and indirectly by AMLQ. The problem is that
now Jorge Gaitan Castro has been accused of domestic violence against his wife in a court of
Femicide of First Instance for Crimes of Femicide and other forms of Violence against woman
and Sexual Violence.
Please read the attached documents. Apparently, he has used money that AMLQ has given
Jorge Gaitan Castro as Salary and legal expenses on behalf of the company for his personal
55
matters including his divorce. This is a very serious matter and needs to be addressed.
This money financed by AMLQ has destroyed not only the value of Continental Towers, but
hundreds of employees an now a poor woman´s life.
The record needs to be corrected in front of Judge Kaplan and the arbitration panel that is
overseeing this proceedings.

She is also mentioning a company called Tandem. We don´t know what this company is but in

23, 2024, April 24, 2024, and April 27, 2024, relating to what appears to be a personal dispute
between Mr. Gaitan and his wife. For avoidance of doubt, Peppertree and AMLQ deny any
allegations therein of their involvement in this dispute. Additionally, because the dispute between
Mr. Gaitan and his wife, discussed in this correspondence, is of a personal nature, it is not relevant
to the disputes being litigated in Phase 2 of the pending NY arbitration. Nevertheless, because Mr.
Ortiz claims, without any basis, that this matter somehow relates to Continental Towers LATAM
Holdings Limited, and sent the correspondence to Peppertree and/or AMLQ in their roles as Board
Members/shareholders of the Company but inexplicably did not include all of Terra’s Board
Members, we are sending it to all arbitration counsel to ensure everyone is aware of it.
Peppertree/AMLQ reserve all rights with respect to the matters herein and waive none.
Thank you.

I'm very grateful that Continental Towers LATAM Holdings Ltd., took the
time to respond to my letters and empathized with my situation.
Yes, Ropes and Graves has paid Jorge Gaitan, who included this income
in his budget, like the one I have attached a picture of this letter. I also
attached the picture of a document, signed by Jorge Gaitan and his
"friend" Carol Echeverria where it states they are the representatives of
TANDEM INFRASTRUCTURE, a company that by now it should be formed
and should be generating an income for the couple.
As I fear for my life, I know that other people are aware that Jorge Gaitan
and his pack of partners in crime are dangerous that have no limit to their
debauchery. Proof of it, is the way they refer about other people, how
they share their malicious intents to harm those who once gave them a
job, that were colleagues at work and friends. Who investigates someone
who gave you work (Sequor Law)? Who dreams about torturing,
sadistically, dismembering and killing a former boss? Why do other pack
members laugh? Who files for working visas with his lover while his family
78
is not included? They do! Gaitan, Carol and Juan Ignacio Berger. And who
enables them? Well ... Now I'm clear that it's not the A Shareholders.
He never told me of his plans, and I am sure Carol Echeverria didn't tell
her husband about her plans to leave Guatemala.
Together with my legal team we have seen evidence of more than 4.3 MM
dollars given to him directly or indirectly through Schachter and
Dechamps. The numbers keep piling up and we are sure the total could
reach up to 6mm. These are monumental amounts of money and some
of it should cover my alimony and should not be used against me. This is
an absurd amount of money to defend someone that is supposed to be
an "innocent" man. He is a criminal and he is willing to hurt people to get
what he wants (while acting as a victim).
You need to stop this immediately and stop a criminal from getting away
with his wrong deeds.
Regards, RECIBIDO
