(ii) It argues that sanctioning criteria be applied, considering the following: a. "Circumstances of the commission of the infraction On May 23, 2024, through a Session held on the referred date, the Board of Directors of the Issuer adopted the following agreements:

The integrity of the document and the authorship of the signature(s) can be verified at https://apps.firmaperu.gob.pe/web/validador.xhtml 2. Presentation and Approval of Financial Statements as of April 30, 2024 - Business status. 3. Knowledge of the holding of the Asset and Liability Committee -ALCO sessions. (…) On its part, on May 30, 2024, through an important fact assigned with File No. 2024024242, the Issuer communicated the important fact of May 23, 2024, informing through structured format the details of the Board of Directors Session agreements adopted that day, as stated in the preceding paragraph. Taking into account the recognition of the commission of the infraction, it is necessary to indicate that the communication of the important fact corresponding to the Imputation was carried out with seven (7) calendar days of delay, due to an involuntary error on the part of it. This error prevented the communication from being made in the due opportunity, that is, on the same day that the Board of Directors Session was held and the respective agreements were adopted. b. Severity of the damage to the public interest and/or protected legal good Article 1 of the TUO of LMV states as the purpose of the norm the promotion of the ordered development and transparency of the securities market, as well as the adequate protection of the investor. From our perspective, the Imputation corresponds to the violation of norms of protection of market transparency. As can be appreciated, in strictness, although we comply in communicating the monthly Board of Directors sessions as a good practice, in strictness, none of the points involve significant relevance in concrete, so the delay has not generated damage to the market. c. Damage caused and its repercussion in the market There is no damage caused nor repercussion in the market. d. Illegal benefit resulting from the commission of the infraction Qapaq has not obtained benefit or any economic improvement from the commission of the Infraction. On the contrary, it is the imputed subject in the present administrative sanctioning procedure for the delayed communication. e. Existence or non-existence of intent in the conduct of the infractor As for this criterion, it should be noted that the non-compliance by Qapaq regarding the belated presentation of the important fact corresponding to May 23, 2024 did not obey a deliberate conduct, but derived from an involuntary error, therefore there was never will to fail to comply with the obligations established in the securities market regulations. On the contrary, once the omission was noticed, Qapaq proceeded immediately to correct it, carrying out the communication of the referred important fact on its own initiative. f. Probability of detection of the infraction As established in article 30 of the TUO of the LMV and numeral 9.1 of article 9 of the Important Facts Regulation. Page 4 of 4 The

The integrity of the document and the authorship of the signature(s) can be verified at https://apps.firmaperu.gob.pe/web/validador.xhtml probability of detection of the infraction is high, as it can be verified publicly since it is information available on the institutional website of the SMV. In this sense, it is impossible to "hide" the Imputation. g. Antecedents and recidivism in the commission of the infraction According to letters a) and b) of article 25 of the Sanctions Regulation, for the purposes of the graduation of the sanction, antecedents must be considered, for sanctions firm imposed by the SMV within a period of four (4) years prior to the commission of the Imputed Infraction, as well as recidivism, for the commission of the same infraction, the firm sanction taken into account imposed by the SMV within a period of one (1) year prior to the commission of the Imputed Infraction."; 5.

However, despite having been validly notified through the MVNet System, in accordance with the MVNet System and SMV Virtual Regulation approved by SMV Resolution No. 0042024-SMV/01, to date it has not presented its allegations; III. QUESTIONS TO BE DETERMINED 8. That, in the present PAS it corresponds to determine the following (i) Whether the Issuer incurred or not in the infraction indicated in the Charge Letter and Report; (ii) Whether it corresponds or not to impose a sanction on the Issuer; IV.

That, article 30 of the TUO LMV states: "The registration of a certain value or issuance program entails for its issuer the obligation to inform the SMV and, if applicable, to the respective stock exchange or entity responsible for the conduct of the centralized negotiation mechanism, of the important facts, including ongoing negotiations, about itself, the value and the offer that is made of it, as well as to disclose such facts in a truthful, sufficient and timely manner. The information must be provided to these institutions and disclosed as soon as the fact occurs or the issuer takes knowledge of it, as the case may be." (Underlining added); 10. That, it should be noted that articles 3 and 4 of the Important Facts Regulation, establish the following: "Article 3.- Definition of important fact Important fact is any act, decision, agreement, fact, ongoing negotiation or information referred to the Issuer, its values or its businesses that have the capacity to significantly influence: 3.1 The decision of a reasonable investor to buy, sell or keep a value, or 3.2 The Liquidity, the price or the quotation of the issued values. (…) Article 4.-.

That, consequently, it would have been non-compliance with what is provided in numeral 9.1 of article 9 of the Important Facts Regulation, which states: "The Issuer must inform its important fact as soon as such fact occurs or the Issuer takes knowledge of it, and in no case later than the day on which it has occurred or has been known (…)". (Underlining added); 12.
