Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 6. of the Amendment No. 6, 8 and 9 previously filed is hereby amended by adding the following agreements:

Credit Suisse Loan Agreement. On January 28, 2009 IFISA cancelled in total the loan agreement signed with Credit Suisse International. The terms and conditions of this loan were previously informed in the Amendment No. 6 dated as of March 31, 2008.

Irrevocable Proxy with Baldwin Enterprises. On February 26, 2009, Eduardo S. Elsztain and Baldwin Enterprises Inc. (“Baldwin”) signed a letter in which Baldwin releases CVC Cayman, in its capacity as investment manager of Dolphin, to relinquish voting rights with respect to any common shares of IFIS, IFISA, IRSA and Cresud owned by Dolphin in favor of the independent directors of Dolphin. Therefore, the Irrevocable Proxy was cancelled.

Call Option with Baldwin Enterprises. On March 11, Baldwin and Eduardo S. Elsztain signed a letter agreement pursuant to which Mr. Elsztain waives all rights he has in respect of (i) American Depositary Shares of Cresud and (ii) warrants to purchase common shares of Cresud and releases Baldwin from any obligation with respect to such Call Option. As a result, the Call Option previously informed was terminated.

New amendments to the plan for the acquisition of Cresud’s own shares. The terms and conditions of the plan for the acquisition of Cresud’s own shares, previously informed in Amendment No. 8 dated August 21, 2008, were amended as follows: (i) the maximum amount of shares to be acquired was established in 30,000,000; (ii) the total amount of investment was ratified in Ps. 82,000,000; and (iii) the term of the acquisition was extended several times, currently expiring on May 31, 2009, unless extended by Cresud.

Other than as set forth above or otherwise described in Amendments No. 6, 8 and 9 previously filed, there are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships with respect to any securities of Cresud to which the Reporting Persons are a party.
