PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL INFORMATION

We maintain our books and records inreais.  We prepared our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Our consolidated annual financial statements

We restated ourbalance sheets, as of January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012, and the Statements of Income, of Comprehensive Income, of Change in Shareholders´ Equity and Cash Flows for the yearyears endedDecember 31, 2010 2012 and 2011 as a result of the adoption, as of January 1, 2013, of two newstandardsissued by the IASB: IAS 19 (Employee Benefits – as revised in 2011)  and IFRS 11 (Joint Arrangements).  These newstandardswere our first financial statements preparedapplied retrospectively to 2012 and 2011 pursuant to IAS 8 (Accounting Policies, Changes in accordance with IFRS.  IFRS 1 – “First‑time AdoptionAccounting Estimates and Errors) for comparison purposes.  The adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards” has been applied in preparingthese newstandardsimpacted several line items of our financial statements asstatements.  One of andthese impacts relate to the method of  accounting for the year ended December 31, 2010 and forresults ofjoint-ventures, which are now recognized using the year ended December 31, 2009 for comparative purposes.  Until December 31, 2009,equity method of accounting instead of the proportional consolidation method we used prior to the adoption ofIFRS 11.  See note 2.8 to our consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil (“Brazilian Accounting Principles”), for a description of thesestandardsand reconciled to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. 

Brazilian Accounting Principles differ in certain significant respects from IFRS.  When preparing our 2010 consolidated financial statements under IFRS, management amended certain accounting methods in the Brazilian Accounting Principles financial statements to comply with IFRS, as issued by the IASB.  The reconciliations and descriptions of the effect of the transition from Brazilian Accounting Principles to IFRS are presented in note 5 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2010 annual report.  Following our adoption of IFRS, as issued by the IASB, we are no longer required to reconciletheir impact on our financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. statements.

We have translated certain of thereal amounts contained in this annual report into U.S. dollars.  The rate used to translate such amounts was R$1.876 to US$1.00, which was the rate for the selling of U.S. dollars in effect as of December 31, 2011 as reported by the Central Bank of Brazil (the “Central Bank”).  The U.S. dollar equivalent information presented in this annual report is provided solely for convenience of investors and should not be construed as implying that thereal amounts represent, or could have been or could be converted into, U.S. dollars at the above rate.  See “Item 3.  Key Information—Exchange Rates” for more information regarding the Brazilian foreign exchange rate system and historical data on the exchange rate betweenreais and U.S. dollars.

RISK FACTORS

Risks Relating to Our Operations and the Brazilian Power Industry

We are subject to comprehensive regulation of our business, which fundamentally affects our financial performance.

Our business is subject to extensive regulation by various Brazilian regulatory authorities, particularly the National Electric Energy Agency (Agência Nacional de Energia Elétrica (“ANEEL”)., or ANEEL.  ANEEL regulates and oversees various aspects of our business and establishes our tariffs.  If we are obligedobligated by ANEEL to make additional and unexpected capital investments and are not allowed to adjust our tariffs accordingly, or if ANEEL modifies the regulations related to such adjustment, we may be adversely affected.

In addition, both the implementation of our strategy for growth and our the ordinary business may be adversely affected by governmental actions such as changes to current legislation, the termination of federal and state concession programs, creation of more rigid criteria for qualification in public energy auctions, or a delay in the revision and implementation of new annual tariffs.

If regulatory changes require us to conduct our business in a manner substantially different from our current operations, as a result of regulatory changes, our operations and financial results may be adversely affected.

The regulatory framework under which we operate is subject to legal challenge.

The Brazilian government implemented fundamental changes in the regulation of the power industry underin legislation passed in 2004 legislation known as theLei do Novo Modelo do Setor Elétrico, or New Industry Model Law.  Challenges to the constitutionality of the New Industry Model Law are still pending before the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court.Court (Supremo Tribunal Federal).  If all or part of the New Industry Model Law were held to be unconstitutional, there would be uncertain consequences for the validity of existing regulation and the further development of the regulatory framework.  The outcome of the legal proceedings is difficult to predict, but it could have an adverse impact on the entire energy sector, including our business and results of operations.

We are uncertain as to the renewal of our concessions.concessions and authorizations.

We carry out our generation, transmission and distribution activities pursuant to concession agreements entered into with the Brazilian Federal Government.government.  Our concessions range in duration from 16 to 35 years, with the first expiration date in 2015.  Five of our distribution subsidiaries, as well as three small hydroelectric power plants and six micro hydroelectric power plants that generate energy exclusively for these distribution subsidiaries, have concessions that expire in July 2015 with options to renew for an additional 20 years.  In 2011, these five distribution subsidiaries represented 6.0% of net operating revenues of our distribution companies and 5.6% of the energy distributed by our distribution companies.

The Brazilian constitution requires that all concessions relating to public services be awarded through a bidding process.public tender.  Under laws and regulations specific to the electric energy sector, the Federal GovernmentBrazilian government may renew existing concessions for additional periods of up to 20 or 30 years, depending on the nature of the concession, without a bidding process,public tender, provided that the concessionaire has met minimum performance standards and that the proposal is otherwise acceptable to the Federal Government.Brazilian government.  The Federal GovernmentBrazilian government has considerable discretion under the ConcessionsLaw No. 8,987/95, or the Concession Law, and the concession contracts with respect to renewal of concessions.  Moreover, there

The first of our distribution concessions due to expire are those held by our distribution subsidiaries CPFL Santa Cruz, CPFL Jaguari, CPFL Mococa, CPFL Leste Paulista and CPFL Sul Paulista, which were originally granted in 1999 for a 16‑year term that is no extensive historydue to expire in July 2015.  In 2013, these five distribution subsidiaries represented 5.6% of administrativeour distribution net operating revenues and 5.4% of the energy billed by our Distribution segment.

A recent change in law determined the general conditions for the renewal practice.  Asof distribution concessions, including those held by CPFL Santa Cruz, CPFL Jaguari, CPFL Mococa, CPFL Leste Paulista and CPFL Sul Paulista, subject to certain conditions, for a result,term of up to 30 years.  See “Item 4.  Information on the Company—Our Concessions and Authorizations—Concessions”.  Accordingly, we have applied for renewal of these concessions.  We are currently awaiting a response from the Brazilian government with respect to this renewal request.  We cannot assure yougive any assurance that our concessionsthe renewals will be renewedgranted, either on an early basis or at all, or if granted that theythe relevant conditions will be acceptable.  If these or any of our concessions are not renewed, on the same terms.or if they are renewed subject to conditions that are unfavorable to us, our revenues could be adversely affected.

The tariffs that we charge for sales of electricity to captive consumersCaptive Consumers and the tariff for using the distribution system that we charge to Free and Special Consumers are determined by ANEEL pursuant to concession agreements with the Brazilian government, so our operating revenues could be adversely affected if ANEEL makes decisions relating to our tariffs that are not favorable to us.

ANEEL has substantial discretion to establish the tariff rates our distribution companies charge our consumers.  Our tariffs are determined pursuant to concession agreements with the Brazilian Federal Government,government, and in accordance with ANEEL’s regulations and decisions.

Table of Contents

Our concession agreements and the Brazilian law establish a mechanism that permits three types of tariff adjustments:  (i) the annual adjustment (“(reajuste tarifário anualannual), or RTA, (ii) the periodic revision (“(revisão tarifária periódica), or RTP, and (iii) the extraordinary revision (“(revisão tarifária extraordinária)., or RTE.  We are entitled to apply each year for the annual adjustment, which is designed to offset some effects of inflation on tariffs and pass through to consumers certain changes in our cost structure that are beyond our control, such as the cost of electricity we purchase from certain sources and certain regulatory charges, including charges for the use of transmission and distribution facilities.  In addition, ANEEL carries out a periodic revision every four or five years that is aimed at identifying variations in our costs as well as setting a factor based on our operational efficiency that will be applied against the index of our ongoing annual tariff adjustments, the objective of which is to share any related gains with our consumers.  We are also subject to extraordinary revision of our tariffs that may affect (negatively or positively) our results of operations or financial position.

7


Table of Contents

We cannot be sure if ANEEL will establish tariffs at rates that are favorable to us, due to changes in the methods used by ANEEL in calculating the periodic revision adjustments.  In addition, to the extent that any of these adjustments are not granted by ANEEL in a timely manner, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.

On November 22, 2011, ANEEL defined the methodology applicable to the third periodic revision cycle (2011 to 2014) through Resolution No. 457/2011.  For the third cycle, ANEEL has designated a new method of recognizing which costs we may pass through to our consumers.  In addition, ANEEL approved the new methodology for calculating the tariff for using the distribution system (Tarifa de Uso do Sistema de Distribuição), or TUSD, and other electricity tariffs, under which distributorsdistribution companies assume all market risk resulting from tariff indicatorsindicators.  As compared to the previous tariff cycle, this new methodology negatively impactsimpacted our financial condition and results of operations.

On October 10, 2013, through Public Consultation 011/2013, ANEEL began the process to consider the methodology to be applied in the next periodic revision cycle (2015 to 2018).  The documents released for public consultation indicate that this periodic revision cycle will likely substantially maintain the existing methodology, other than the accounting methodology to be used by ANEEL in determining the Regulatory Asset Base (Base de Remuneração Regulatória), or BRR, which may be significantly modified.  This public consultation is expected to be concluded by the end of 2014.

We could be penalized by ANEEL for failing to comply with the terms of our concession agreements, which could result in fines, other penalties and, depending on the gravity of the non‑compliance, in our concessions being terminated.

ANEEL may impose penalties on us in the event that we fail to comply with any provision of our concession agreements.  Depending on the gravity of the non‑compliance, these penalties could include the following:

·        warning notices;

·        fines per breach of up to 2.0% of the revenues from the relevant concession in the financial year ended immediately prior to the date of the relevant breach;

·        injunctions related to the construction of new facilities and equipment;

·        restrictions on the operation of existing facilities and equipment;

·        intervention by ANEEL in the management of the concessionaire; and

·        termination of the concession.

In addition, the Brazilian government has the power to terminate any of our concessions by means of expropriation for reasons related to the public interest.

We are currently in compliance with all of the material terms of our concession agreements.However, we cannot assure you that we will not be penalized by ANEEL for breaching our concession agreements or that our concessions will not be terminated in the future.  The compensation to which we are entitled upon expiration or early termination of our concessions may not be sufficient for us to realize the full value of certain assets.  IfIn addition, if any of our concession agreements is terminated for reasons attributable to us, the effective amount of compensation by the granting authorities could be materially reduced through the imposition of fines or other penalties.  Accordingly, the imposition of fines or penalties on us or the termination of any of our concessions could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We may not be able to fully pass through the costs of our electricity purchases and, to meet demand, we could be forced to enter into short‑term agreements to purchase electricity at prices substantially higher than under our long‑term purchase agreements.

Under the New Industry Model Law, an electricity distributor must contract in advance, through public bids, for 100% of its forecastedforecast electricity needs for its distribution concession areas.  Over-areas, and is authorized to pass up to 105% of this electricity on to consumers.  Over‑ or under-forecastingunder‑forecasting demand can have adverse consequences.  If our forecastedforecast demand is incorrect and we purchase less or more electricity than we need, we may be prevented from fully passing through the costs of our electricity purchases and we may also be forced to enter into short‑term agreements to purchase or sell electricity at prices substantially higher or lower than under our long‑term purchase agreements.  For instance, the New Industry Model Law provides, among other restrictions, that if our forecasts fall significantly short of actual electricity demand, we may be forced to make up the shortfall with shorter term electricity purchase agreements.  If our acquisitions of electricity in the public auctions are above the Annual Reference Value (Valor Anual de Referência), as defined in “Item 4.  Information on the Company—The New Industry Model Law—The Annual Reference Value,” established by the Brazilian government, we may not be able to fully pass through the costs of our electricity purchases.  Our forecastedforecast electricity demand may prove inaccurate, including as a result of consumers moving between the different markets (regulated and free).  If there are significant variations between our electricity needs and the volume of our electricity purchases, our results of operations may be adversely affected.  See “Item 4.  Information on the Company—The Brazilian Power Industry—The New Industry Model Law.”Law”.  In addition, the MME enacted Act. No. 455 on August 2, 2012, under whichex post energy volume adjustment will be prohibited starting as from June 1, 2014, and the parties will have to registerex ante with the Electric Energy Trading Chamber (Câmara de Comercialização de Energia Elétrica), or CCEE, their expected consumption volume, except when the parties have specifically indicated that the relevant agreement is linked to the effective consumption volume.  If our projected energy volume is incorrect and we purchase less or more electricity than we need, we will no longer be able to adjust for the energy volume exposed.  See “Item 4. Information on the Company—The New Industry Model Law—Recent Developments in the Free Market”.

We generate a significant portion of our operating revenues from consumers that qualify as Free Consumers, which are allowed to seek alternative electricity suppliers.  We may face other types of competition that could adversely affect our market share and revenues.

Within our concession areas, other electricity suppliers are permitted to compete with us in offering electricity to certain consumers that qualify as Free Consumers, to whom our distribution subsidiaries may supply electricity only at regulated tariffs.  These consumers qualified as Free Consumers may elect to opt out of our regulated distribution system upon the expiration of their contracts with us by providing six months’ prior notice, or by providing a year’s prior notice if their contract has no fixed termination date.notice.  At December 31, 2011,2013, we supplied energy to 4847 consumers qualified as Free Consumers, which accounted for approximately 2.2%1.7% of our net operating revenues of our Distribution segment, and approximately 2.7%2.4% of the total volume of electricity sold by our distributorsDistribution segment during 2011.2013.  In addition, other consumers meeting certain criteria may become Free Consumers if they move to energy from renewable energy sources, such as small hydroelectricSmall Hydroelectric Power Plants, wind power plants or biomass.  At December 31, 20112013 we had a total of 1,615 potentially1,692 consumers who could choose their supplier, or Potentially Free Consumers.  Potentially Free Consumers which accounted for approximately 13.3%11.7% of ourthe net operating revenues of our Distribution segment, and approximately 14.9%14.6% of the total volume of electricity sold by our distribution companiesDistribution segment during 2011. If our consumers that are not currently qualified as Free Consumers decide to become Free Consumers and purchase electricity from other electricity suppliers in our concession areas, our market share and results of operations would be adversely affected.2013.

In addition,Additionally, it is possible that our large industrial clients could be authorized by ANEEL to generate electric energy for their own consumption or sale to other parties, in which case they may obtain an authorization or concession for the generation of electric power in a given area, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

Our operating results depend on prevailing hydrological conditions.  Poor hydrological conditions may affect our results of operations.

We are dependent on the prevailing hydrological conditions in the geographic region in which we operate.  In 2013, according to data from the National Electrical System Operator (Operador Nacional do Sistema Elétrico), or ONS, approximately 79% of Brazil’s electricity supply came from Hydroelectric Power Plants.  Our region is subject to unpredictable hydrological conditions, with non‑cyclical deviations from average rainfall.  In order to compensate for poor hydrological conditions and to maintain security levels in reservoirs and the electricity supply level, the ONS may dispatch Thermoelectric Power Plants, including those operated by us.  The replacement of hydroelectric generation with thermoelectric generation may lead to adverse results in our generation segment since Hydroelectric Power Plants, including those operated by us, may receive in the Energy Reallocation Mechanism(Mecanismo de Realocação de Energia), or MRE, an amount of energy lower than their Assured Energy.  This deficit of energy will represent an expense valued at the electricity spot price, exposing the operator of the Hydroelectric Power Plants to spot price risk.

Table of Contents

In the Distribution segment, thermoelectric generation can lead to additional costs with energy purchase, when ONS dispatches Thermoelectric Power Plants by merit order, and extraordinary charges, such as a component of the System Service Charge (Encargo de Serviço do Sistema), the ESS, related to energy security, the ESS-SE, when these power plants are dispatched out of the merit order.  These additional costs are ultimately passed through by the distributor to consumers through tariff increases in future annual adjustments or periodic reviews, as permitted by regulation.  However, there may be a cash flow mismatch in the intervening period, since these costs must be covered immediately, while the tariffs are only readjusted later.    See “Item 4.  Information on the Company—Regulatory Charges—ESS”.

The impact of an electricity shortage and related electricity rationing, as in 2001 and 2002, may have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

We are dependent onDuring the prevailing hydrological conditions in the geographic region in which we operate.  In 2011, according to data from the National Electrical System Operator,Operador Nacional do Sistema Elétrico (“ONS”), more than 91% of Brazil’s electricity supply came from hydroelectric generation facilities.  Our region is subject to unpredictable hydrological conditions, with non‑cyclical deviations from average rainfall.  The most recentlow rainfall period of low rainfall was between 2000 and 2001, when the Brazilian government instituted the Rationing Program, a program to reduce electricity consumption that was in effect from June 1, 2001 to February 28, 2002.  The Rationing Program established limits for energy consumption for industrial, commercial and residential consumers, which ranged from a 15.0% to a 25.0% reduction in energy consumption.  If Brazil experiences another electricity shortage (a condition which might happen and we are not able to control or anticipate), the Brazilian government may implement similar or other policies in the future to address the shortage that could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.  A recurrenceof poor hydrological conditions that resultcannot be offset by other energy sources, such as Thermoelectric Power Plants, thereby resulting in a low supply of electricity to the Brazilian market, could cause, among other things, the implementation of broad electricity conservation programs, including mandated reductions in electricity consumption.  We cannot assure you that periodsPeriods of severe or sustained below-averagebelow‑average rainfall will notresulting in an electricity shortage may adversely affect our future financial results.

We are uncertain as to the review of our Hydroelectric Power Plants’ Assured Energy.

9Decree No. 2,655 of July 2, 1998 established that the Assured Energy of generation power plants would be revised every five years.  As part of these revisions, the Brazilian Ministry of Mines and Energy, or MME, can revise a company’s Assured Energy, limited to a maximum change of 5% per revision or 10% over the entire period of the concession agreement.  In addition to these periodic revisions,the effects of the first revision are expected to take place in 2015 (pursuant toPortaria No. 303 of November 18, 2004) for all Hydroelectric Power Plants.  We cannot be certain whether the MME will make any revisions to our Assured Energy, either under the periodic revision cycle or under this extraordinary revision, and if so whether it will increase or decrease our Assured Energy.  If our Assured Energy is decreased, our ability to supply electricity under our power purchase agreements, or PPAs, would be adversely affected, which could lead to a decrease in our revenues and increase our costs if our generation subsidiaries are required to purchase power elsewhere.

·        construction and operational delays, or unanticipated cost overruns;

·        the inability to win electricity auctions promoted by ANEEL; and

·        unavailability of adequate funding.

If we experience these or other problems, we may not be able to generate andor distribute electricity in amounts consistent with our projections, which may have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to environmental and health regulations that may become more stringent in the future and may result in increased liabilities and increased capital expenditures.

Our distribution and generation activities are subject to comprehensive federal and state legislation as well as supervision by Brazilian governmental agencies that are responsible for the implementation of environmental and health laws and policies.  These agencies could take enforcement action against us for our failure to comply with their regulations.  These actions could include, among other things, the imposition of fines and revocation of licenses.  It is possible that enhanced environmental and health regulations will force us to allocate capital expenditures to compliance, and consequently, divert funds from planned investments.  Such a diversion could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

If we are unable to complete our proposed capital expenditure program in a timely manner, the operation and development of our business may be adversely affected.

We plan to invest approximately R$3,0971,425 million in our generation activities (R$1,307 million in renewable sources and R$4,984118 million in conventional sources) and R$5,826 million in our distribution activities during the period from 20122014 through 2016.2018.  Our ability to carry out this capital expenditure program depends on a variety of factors, including our ability to charge adequate tariffs for our services, our access to domestic and international capital markets and a variety of operating, regulatory and other contingencies.  Wecannot be certain that we will have the financial resources to complete our proposed capital expenditure program, and failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on the operation and development of our business.

We are exposed to increases in prevailing market interest rates, as well as foreign exchange rate risk.

As of December 31, 2011,2013, approximately 87.1%88.2% of our total indebtedness was denominated inreaisand indexed to Brazilian money-marketmoney‑market rates or inflation rates, or bore interest at floating rates.  The remaining 12.9%11.8% of our total indebtedness was denominated in U.S. dollars and substantially subject to currency swaps that converted these obligations intoreais.  In addition, the costs of electricity purchased from the Itaipu power plant (“Itaipu”)Power Plant, or Itaipu, are indexed to the U.S. dollar exchange variation.  Our tariffs are adjusted annually in order to contemplate the losses or gains’ effectsgains from such electricity acquisition.  Accordingly, if these indexation rates rise or the U.S. dollar/realexchange rates appreciate, our financing expenses will increase.

Our indebtedness and debt service obligations could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and make payments on our debt.

As of December 31, 2011,2013, we had a debt of R$13,60817,021 million.  Our indebtedness increases the possibility that we may be unable to generate cash sufficient to pay when due the principal, interest or other amounts due in respect of our indebtedness.  In addition, we may incur additional debt from time to time to finance strategic acquisitions, investments, joint ventures or for other purposes, subject to the restrictions applicable under our existing indebtedness.  If we incur additional debt, the risks associated with our leverage would increase.

We may acquire other companies in the electricity business, as we have in the past, and these acquisitions could increase our leverage or adversely affect our consolidated performance.

We regularly analyze opportunities to acquire other companies engaged in activities along the entire electricity generation, transmission and distribution chain.  If we do acquire other electricity companies, itthis could increase our leverage or reduce our profitability.  Furthermore, we may not be able to integrate the acquired company’s activities and achieve the economies of scale and expected efficiency gains that often drive such acquisitions, and failure to do so could harm our financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Relating to Brazil

The Brazilian government has exercised, and continues to exercise, significant influence over the Brazilian economy.  This involvement, as well as Brazilian political and economic conditions, could adversely affect our business and the trading price of our ADSs and our common shares.

The Brazilian government frequently intervenes in the Brazilian economy and occasionally makes significant changes in policy and regulations.  The Brazilian government’s actions to control inflation and other policies and regulations have often involved, among other measures, increases in interest rates, changes in tax policies, price controls, currency devaluations, capital controls and limits on imports.  Our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected by changes in policy or regulations at the federal, state or municipal levels involving or affecting factors such as:

·        interest rates;

·        monetary policy;

·        currency fluctuations;

·        inflation;  

·        liquidity of domestic capital and lending markets;

·        tax policies;

·        changes in labor laws;

·        regulatory environment of our sector;

Table of Contents

·        exchange rates and exchange controls and restrictions on remittances abroad, such as those that were briefly imposed in 1989 and early 1990; and

·        other political, social and economic developments in or affecting Brazil.

We cannot assure you that the Brazilian government will continue with the current economic policies, or that any changes implemented by the Brazilian government will not, directly or indirectly, affect our business and results of operations.

Exchange rate instability may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and the market price of the ADSs and our common shares.

The Brazilian currency has during the last decades experienced frequent and substantial variations in relation to the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies.currencies over the last decade.  In the context of the crisis in the global financial markets after mid-2008,mid‑2008, thereal depreciated against the U.S. dollar, during 2008 and reaching R$2.337 per US$1.00 at year year‑end 2008.  During 2009, thereal appreciated 25.5% against the U.S. dollar in the context of the economic recovery, and reaching R$1.741 per US$1.00 at year-endyear‑end 2009.  On December 31, 2011, 2012 and 2013, the exchange rate of thereal against the U.S. dollar was R$1.876, R$2.044 and R$2.343 per US$1.00.1.00, respectively.  On March 27, 2012,April 2, 2014, the exchange rate was R$1.8142.271 per US$1.00.  We cannot assure that theTherealwill notmay further depreciate against the U.S. dollar in 2014 and in the future.

Depreciation of therealincreases the cost of servicing our foreign currency denominated debt and the cost of purchasing electricity from the Itaipu power plant, a hydroelectric facilityHydroelectric Power Plant that is one of our major suppliers and that adjusts electricity prices based in part on its U.S. dollar costs.  Depreciation of therealagainst the U.S. dollar could create inflationary pressures in Brazil and cause increases in interest rates, which could negatively affect the growth of the Brazilian economy as a whole and harm our financial condition and results of operations, curtail access to foreign financial markets and may prompt government intervention, including recessionary governmental policies.  Depreciation of therealagainst the U.S. dollar can also lead to decreased consumer spending, deflationary pressures and reduced growth in the economy as a whole.  On the other hand, appreciation oftherealrelative to the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies could lead to a deterioration of the Brazilian foreign exchange current account, as well as dampen export-drivenexport‑driven growth.  Depending on the circumstances, either depreciation or appreciation of therealcould materially and adversely affect the growth of the Brazilian economy and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Table of Contents

Depreciation of thereal  also reduces the U.S. dollar value of distributions and dividends ouron the ADSs and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the market price of our common shares and, as a result, the ADSs.

Government efforts to combat inflation may hinder the growth of the Brazilian economy and could harm our business.

Brazil has in the past experienced extremely high rates of inflation and has therefore followed monetary policies that have resulted in one of the highestreal interest rates in the world.  Between 2006 and 2011,2013, the base interest rate in Brazil, (“SELIC”)or SELIC, varied between 8.7%17.25% p.a. and 18.0%7.5% p.a. and was 11% on April 2, 2014.  Inflation and the Brazilian government’s measures to fight it, principally through the Brazilian Central Bank, have had and may in the future have significant effects on the Brazilian economy and our business.  Tight monetary policies with high interest rates may restrict Brazil’s growth and the availability of credit.  Conversely, more lenient government and Brazilian Central Bank policies and interest rate decreases may trigger increases in inflation, and, consequently, volatility in growth and the need for sudden and significant interest rate increases, which could negatively affect our business.  In addition, if Brazil again experiences high inflation, we may not be able to adjust the rates we charge our consumers to offset the effects of inflation on our cost structure.

Developments and the perception of risk in other countries, including the United States and emerging market countries, may adversely affect the market price of Brazilian securities, including our ADSs and our common shares.

The market value of securities of Brazilian issuers is affected by economic and market conditions in other countries, including the United States, the European Union and emerging market countries.  The global financial crisis that commenced in 2008 led to significant consequences, including stock and credit market volatility, unavailability of credit, higher interest rates, a general economic slowdown, volatile exchange rates and inflationary pressure.  Global recovery from this crisis was slower than expected in 2013, with the largest emerging economies of China, Brazil and India posting weaker than expected results, while the United States and the European Union continued to experience weak GDP growth.  Although economic conditions in thoseother countries may differ significantly from economic conditions in Brazil, investor reactions todevelopments in otherthose countries may have an adverse effect on the market value of securities of Brazilian issuers.  Crises in the United States, the European Union or emerging market countries may diminish investor interest in securities of Brazilian issuers, including ours.  This could adversely affect the trading price of the ADSs or our common shares, and could also make it more difficult for us to access the capital markets and finance our operations in the future on acceptable terms or at all.

Table of Contents

The current global financial crisis, especially in the European Union, has generated significant consequences, such as stock and credit market volatility, unavailability of credit, higher interest rates, a general economic slowdown, volatile exchange rates and inflationary pressure, among others, which may, directly or indirectly, adversely affect us and the market price of Brazilian securities, including the ADSs and our common shares.  It is still not clear how these consequences will affect Brazilian economy in 2012.

Risks Relating to the ADSs and Our Common Shares

Holders of our ADSs may encounter difficulties indo not have the exercise ofsame voting rights.rights as our shareholders.

Holders of our common sharesADSs do not have the same voting rights as holders of our shares.  Holders of our ADSs are entitled to vote on shareholder matters.  You may encounter difficulties in the contractual rights set forth for their benefit under the deposit agreements.  ADS holders exercise of some of yourvoting rights as a shareholder if you hold our ADSs rather than the underlying common shares.  For example, you are not entitled to attend a shareholders’ meeting, and you can only vote by giving timelyproviding instructions to the depositary, in advanceas opposed to voting at shareholders’ meetings or by proxy.  In practice, the ability of a holder of ADSs to instruct the meeting.depositary as to voting will depend on the timing and procedures for providing instructions to the depositary, either directly or through the holder’s custodian and clearing system.

If you surrender your ADSs and withdraw common shares, you risk losing the ability to remit foreign currency abroad and certain Brazilian tax advantages.

As an ADS holder, you benefit from the electronic certificate of foreign capital registration obtained by the custodian for our common shares underlying the ADSs in Brazil, which permits the custodian to convert dividends and other distributions with respect to the common shares into non‑Brazilian currency and remit the proceeds abroad.  If you surrender your ADSs and withdraw common shares, you will be entitled to continue to rely on thecustodian’s electronic certificate of foreign capital registration for only five business days from the date of withdrawal.  Thereafter, upon the disposition of or distributions relating to the common shares, you will not be able to remit abroad non‑Braziliannon-Brazilian currency unless you obtain your own electronic certificate of foreign capital registration or you qualify under Brazilian foreign investment regulations that entitle some foreign investors to buy and sell shares on Brazilian stock exchanges without obtaining separate electronic certificates of foreign capital registration.  If you do not qualify under the foreign investment regulations you will generally be subject to less favorable tax treatment of dividends and distributions on, and the proceeds from any sale of, our common shares.

Table of Contents

If you attempt to obtain your own electronic certificate of foreign capital registration, you may incur expenses or suffer delays in the application process, which could delay your ability to receive dividends or distributions relating to our common shares or the return of your capital in a timely manner.  The depositary’s electronic certificate of foreign capital registration may also be adversely affected by future legislative changes.

Holders of ADSs may be unable to exercise preemptive rights with respect to our common shares.

We may not be able to offer our common shares to U.S. holders of ADSs pursuant to preemptive rights granted to holders of our common shares in connection with any future issuance of our common shares unless a registration statement under the Securities Act is effective with respect to such common shares and preemptive rights, or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available.  We are not obligated to file a registration statement relating to preemptive rights with respect to our common shares, and we cannot assure you that we will file any such registration statement.  If such a registration statement is not filed and an exemption from registration does not exist, Deutsche Bank, as depositary, will attempt to sell the preemptive rights, and you will be entitled to receive the proceeds of such sale.  However, these preemptive rights will expire if the depositary does not sell them, and U.S. holders of ADSs will not realize any value from the granting of such preemptive rights.

The relative volatility and illiquidity of the Brazilian securities markets may substantially limit your ability to sell the common shares underlying the ADSs at the price and time you desire.

Investing in securities that trade in emerging markets, such as Brazil, often involves greater risk than investing in securities of issuers in the United States, and such investments are generally considered to be more speculative in nature.  The Brazilian securities market is substantially smaller, less liquid, more concentrated and can be more volatile than major securities markets in the United States.  Accordingly, although you are entitled to withdraw the common shares underlying the ADSs from the depositary at any time, your ability to sell the common shares underlying the ADSs at a price and time at which you wish to do so may be substantially limited.  There is also significantly greater concentration in the Brazilian securities market than in major securities markets in the United States.  The ten largest companies in terms of market capitalization represented 52.6%51.2% of the aggregate market capitalization of theBM&FBOVESPA S.A. - Bolsa de Valores, Mercadorias & Futuros(“or BM&FBOVESPA”),&FBOVESPA, as of December 31, 2011.2013.  The top ten stocks in terms of trading volume accounted for 53.7%41.3%, 50.0%43.0% and 47.2% of all shares traded on the BM&FBOVESPA in 2009, 20102013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Our Strategy

Our overall objective is to consolidate our leadership position in the Brazilian electricity sector while creating value for our shareholders.  We seek to achieve these goals in all of our sectors (distribution, conventional generation, sources, renewable generation, sources, and commercialization and services) by pursuing operational efficiency (through innovation and technology) and growth (through business synergies and new projects).  Our strategies are grounded on financial discipline, social responsibility and enhanced corporate governance.  More specifically, our approach involves the following key business strategies. strategies:

Complete the development of our existing renewable generation projects, and expand our generation portfolio by developing new conventional and renewable energy generation projects toand maintain our position as market leader in renewable energy sources.In  At December 31, 2013, our total consolidated Installed Capacity (calculated on the basis of our 58.84% interest in CPFL Renováveis) was 2,988 MW, of which 2,234 MW was conventionally generated and 755 MW was generated through renewable sources.  Through CPFL Renováveis, in August 2011 we became the largest renewable energy companygeneration group in Latin America by establishing CPFL Energias RenováveisBrazil in terms of Installed Capacity and acquiring 100% of the shares of Jantus,capacity under construction, according to ANEEL.

Our total Installed Capacity at December 31, 2013 represents a company engaged in the generation of energy through renewable sources, especially wind power. In 2011, our installed capacity increased to 2,644 MW, 2,233 MW of which was conventionally generated, and 411 MW of which was generated through renewable sources.  This represented a 14.5%0.9% increase as compared to 2010, whenInstalled Capacity of 2,961 MW (restated on the basis of our installed capacity was 2,309 MW.58.84% post‑IPO interest in CPFL Renováveis) at December 31, 2012.  This increasegrowth was due to (i) the creationcommercial start‑up of two thermoelectric biomass plants, UTE Coopcana and UTE Bio Alvorada in August 2013 and November 2013, respectively, and the Campo dos Ventos II Wind Farm in September 2013.  If we had retained our 63% pre‑IPO stake in CPFL Renováveis in which we currently hold a 63% ownership interest, (ii) the commencement of operations at Bio Formosa and Bio Buriti biomass thermoelectric power plants, and (iii) the acquisition of new renewable energy facilities (the Jantus’ wind farms andSanta Luzia small hydroelectric power plant).  In January 2012, we entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement for the acquisition of 100% of the shares of Atlântica I, Atlântica II, Atlântica IV and Atlântica V, companies engaged in generation of energy through wind sources.  In February 2012, we executed a Sale and Purchase Agreement for the acquisition of 100% of the shares of BVP, the holding company of Bons Ventos.  Which is still subject to certain conditions, including approvalboth years, our Installed Capacity would have grown by the regulatory authorities.2.6%.

Focus on further improving our operating efficiency.  The distribution of electricity in our distribution concession areas is our largest business segment, representing approximately 60%76.5% of our consolidated EBITDA.net income in 2013.  We continue to focus on improving the quality of our service and maintaining efficient operating costs by exploiting synergies and technologies.  We also make an effort to standardize and update our operations regularly, introducing automated systems where possible.  In 2011,recent years, in order to achieve a new level of operational efficiency, we startedcommenced roll‑out of the Tauron project, aiming at an efficiency breakthroughProgram, which consists of two main projects:  Smart Metering for Commercial and Industrialconsumers(high and medium voltage customers) and Mobile Workforce Management.  This program is already delivering benefits, with 13,000 smart meters deployed in ourthe field and two distribution operations, companies operating with a data dispatch system, replacing the previous voice‑based on new technologies, performance management, asset management and leadership.system.  We expect to fully implement Tauron projectcomplete these two projects by 2013. the end of 2014.

Expand and strengthen our commercialization and services business.  Free Consumers representmake up a significant segment of the electricity market in Brazil, (approximately 25%representing approximately 27% of the market share).  We strive to enter into bilateral contracts (throughmarket.  Through our subsidiary CPFL Brasil, our commercialization subsidiary)subsidiary, we are focusing on signing bilateral contracts with former consumerscustomers of our distribution companies that become Free Consumers, in addition to attracting additional Free Consumers from outside ofconcession areas other than those covered by our distribution companies’ concession areas.companies.  In order to achieve this objective, we foster positive relationships with customers by providing electricity-related services, strategic advicededicated key account managers, CCEE operational support and decision-making support.PPAs customized to each consumer profile.

Position ourselves to take advantage of consolidation in our industry by using our experience in successfully integrating and restructuring other operations.  We believe that with the stabilization of the regulatory environment in the Brazilian power industry, there may be substantial consolidation in the generation, the transmission and, particularly, the distribution sectors.  Given our financial strength and managerial expertise, we believe that we are well-positionedwell‑positioned to take advantage of this consolidation.  If promising assets are available on attractive terms, we may make acquisitions that complement our existing operations and afford us and our consumers further opportunities to take advantage of economies of scale.

Maintain a high level of social responsibility in the communities in which we operate.  We aim to hold our business operations to the highest standards of social responsibility and sustainable development.  We also support initiatives to advance the economic, cultural and social interests of the communities in which we operate and contribute effectively to their further development.

Follow enhanced corporate governance standards.  We are dedicated to maintaining the highest levels of management transparency and corporate governance, providing equitable shareholder rights and, through various measures, including the increase of our free float and the liquidity of our shares, seeking value for our shareholders.

Table of Contents

Each of our subsidiaries has a distribution network consisting of a widespread network of predominantly overhead lines and sub-stationssub‑stations having successively lower voltage ranges.  Consumers are classified in different voltage levels based on their consumption of, and demand for, electricity.  Large industrial and commercial consumers receive electricity at high voltageHigh Voltage ranges (up to 138 kV) while smaller industrial, commercial and residential consumers receive electricity at lower voltage ranges (2.3 kV and below).

As ofAt December 31, 2011,2013, our distribution networknetworks consisted of 210,491239,835 kilometers of distribution lines, including 276,561342,336 distribution transformers.  Our eight distribution subsidiaries had 9,4379,753 km of high voltageHigh Voltage distribution lines between 34.5 kV and 138 kV.  At that date, we had 434454 transformer sub-stationssub‑stations for transforming high voltageHigh Voltage into medium voltagesMedium Voltages for subsequent distribution, with total transforming capacity of 13,650 mega-volt14,535 mega‑volt amperes.  Of the industrial and commercial consumers in our concession area, 283345 had 69 kV, 88 kV or 138 kV high-voltagehigh‑voltage electricity supplied through direct connections to our high voltageHigh Voltage distribution lines.

System Performance

Electricity Losses

We experience two types of electricity losses:  technical losses and commercial losses.  Technical losses are those that occur in the ordinary course of our distribution of electricity.  Commercial losses are those that result from illegal connections, fraud or billing errors and similar matters.  Electricity loss rates of our three largest distribution subsidiaries (CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga and RGE) compare favorably to the average for other major Brazilian electricity distributors in 20102012 according to the most recent information available from the Brazilian Association of Electric Energy Distributors (Associação Brasileira de Distribuidores de Energia Elétrica (“ABRADEE”), or ABRADEE, an industry association.

We are also actively engaged in efforts to reduce commercial losses from illegal connections, fraud or billing errors.  To achieve this, in each of our eight subsidiaries, we have deployed trained technical teams to conduct inspections, enhanced monitoring for irregular consumption, increased replacements for obsolete measuring equipment and developed a computer program to discover and analyze irregular invoicing.  Approximately 437,330We conducted 279,902 inspections were conducted during 2011,2013, which we believe led to a recovery of receivables estimated at more than R$163.837 million.

Based on data published by ANEEL, the duration and frequency of outages at CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga are among the lowest in Brazil compared to companies of similar size.  The duration of outages at RGE are comparatively higher than those at CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga, but they remain in line with the average rate for power companies in Southern Brazil mainly as a result of the lack of redundancies in its distribution system, the use of medium voltage lines and a lower level of automation in the network.  However, their duration and frequency of outages are below the national average.

ANEEL establishes performance indicators per consumer to be complied with by power companies.  If these indicators are not reached, we are obliged to reimburse our consumers, and our revenues are negatively affected.  In 2010,2012, according to data from ANEEL, the amount we reimbursed our consumers was lower than the average amount reimbursed by power companies of similar size.

Our distribution subsidiaries have construction and maintenance technology that allows for repairs of the electricity network without interruption in electricity service, which allows us to have low levels of scheduled interruption, amounting to approximately up to 14%11.3% of total interruptions.  Unscheduled interruptions due to accidents or natural causes, including lightning storms, fire and wind represented the remainder of our total interruptions.  In 2011,2013, we invested a total ofapproximately R$1,081845 million in improvementsour Distribution segment, primarily in:  (i) expansion, maintenance, improvement, automation, modernization and reinforcement of (i) the logistics of our operations,electrical system in order to meet market growth; (ii) our systems,operational infrastructure; (iii) customer service; and (iii) our infrastructure to support operations, across our different business segments.(iv) research and development programs, among other things.  We expect to invest an additional R$1,108867 million for such purposes in 2012.2014.

We strive to improve response times for our repair services.  The quality indicators for the provision of energy by CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga have maintained levels of excellence while complying with regulatory standards.  This was also mainly the result of our efficient operational logistics, including the strategic positioning of our teams and the technology and automation of our network and operation centers, together with a preventive maintenance and conservation plan.

Purchases of Electricity

Most of the electricity we sell is purchased from unrelated parties, rather than generated by our facilities.  In 2011, 11.1%2013, 12.1% of the total electricity our distribution subsidiaries acquired was purchased from our generation subsidiaries. subsidiaries (including our joint‑ventures). 

In 2011,2013, we purchased 10,85510,719 GWh of electricity from the Itaipu power plant,Power Plant, amounting to 21.3%18.6% of the total electricity we purchased.  Itaipu is located on the border of Brazil and Paraguay and is subject to a bilateral treaty between the two countries pursuant to which Brazil has committed to purchasing specified amounts of electricity.  This treaty will expire in 2023.  Electric utilities operating under concessions in the Midwest, South and Southeast regions of Brazil are required by law to purchase a portion of the electricity that Brazil is obligated to purchase from Itaipu.  The amounts that these companies must purchase are governed by take-or-paytake‑or‑pay contracts with tariffs established in US$/kW.  ANEEL annually determines the amount of electricity to be sold by Itaipu.  We pay for energy purchased from Itaipu in accordance with the ratio between the volume established by ANEEL and our statutorily established share, regardless of whether Itaipu generates such amount of electricity, at a price ofUS$24.88/kW.26.08/Kw.  Our purchases represent approximately 17.0% of Itaipu’s total supply to Brazil.  This share was fixed by law according to the amount of electricity sold in 1991.  The rates at which companies are required to purchase Itaipu’s electricity are established pursuant to the bilateral treaty, and fixed to cover Itaipu’s operating expenses and payments of principal and interest on Itaipu’s U.S. dollar-denominateddollar‑denominated debts, as well as the cost of transmitting the power to their concession areas.

The Itaipu plantPower Plant has an exclusive transmission network.  Distribution companies pay a fee for the use of this network.

In 2011,2013, we paid an average of R$89.68121.11 per MWh for purchases of electricity from Itaipu, as compared towith R$93.23104.98 during 20102012 and R$104.4189.68 during 2009.2011.  These figures do not include the transmission fee.

We purchased 39,99846,972 GWh of electricity in 20112013 from generating companies other than Itaipu, representing 78.7%81.4% of the total electricity we purchased.  We paid an average of R$110.73147.30 per MWh for purchasesof electricity from generating companies other than Itaipu, as compared towith R$109.47121.11 per MWh in 20102012 and R$104.44112.67 per MWh in 2009.2011.  For more information on the regulated marketRegulated Market and the free market,Free Market, see “—The Brazilian Power Industry—The New Industry Model Law.”Law”.

The provisions of our electricity supply contracts are governed by ANEEL regulations.  The main provisions of each contract relate to the amount of electricity purchased, the price, including adjustments for various factors such as inflation indexes, and the duration of the contract.

Beginning in 2013, all distribution companies in Brazil are required to purchase electricity from generation companies whose concessions were renewed in accordance with Law 12,783.  The tariffs and volumes of electricity to be purchased by each distribution company, as well as the provisions of the applicable agreements between the generation and distribution companies, were set by ANEEL in the law.  The tariff for energy sold by generation companies whose concessions were renewed in accordance with Law 12,783 is R$32.89, significantly lower than the current average energy prices.  A number of our competitors in the generation market did not seek to renew their concessions under Law 12,783, leading to higher prices in the spot market for electricity.  See “Item 3.  Key Information—Risk Factors—Our operating results depend on prevailing hydrological conditions.  Poor hydrological conditions may require a higher dispatch of thermoelectric generation in the Brazilian electric system, which may affect our results of operations”.

Transmission Tariffs.  In 2011,2013, we paid a total of R$1,314728 million in tariffs for the use of the transmission network, including Basic Network tariffs, connection tariffs and transmission of high-voltagehigh‑voltage electricity from Itaipu at rates set by ANEEL.

Retail Distribution Tariffs.  We classify our consumers into two different groups, Group A consumers and Group B consumers, based on the voltage level at which the electricity is supplied to them.  Each consumer is placed in a certain tariff level defined by law and based on its respective classification, although some volume-basedclassification.  Some discounts are available.available depending on the consumer classification, tariff level or environment for trading (Free Consumers and generators).  Group B consumers pay higher tariffs.  Tariffs in Group B vary by type of consumer (industrial, residential, commercial or rural)(residential, rural, other categories and public lighting).  Consumers in Group A pay lower tariffs, decreasing from A4 to Al, because they are supplied electricity at higher voltages, which requires lower use of the energy distribution system.  The tariffs we charge for sales of electricity to Final Consumers are determined pursuant to our concession agreements and regulations establishedratified by ANEEL.  These concession agreements and related regulations establish a cap on tariffs that provides for annual, periodic and extraordinary adjustments.  For a discussion of the regulatory regime applicable to our tariffs and their adjustment, see “—The Brazilian Power Industry.”Industry”.

Group A consumers receive electricity at 2.3 kV or higher.  Tariffs for Group A consumers are based on the voltage level at which electricity is supplied, and the time of year and the time of day electricity is supplied, althoughsupplied.  The consumers may opt for a different tariff applicable in peak periods in order to optimize the use of the electric network.  Tariffs for Group A consumers consist of two components:  a “capacity charge”the TUSD and an “energy charge.”the tariff for energy consumption, or TE.  The capacity charge,TUSD, expressed inreais per kW, is based on:  (i) the electricity demand contracted by the party connected to the system; (ii) certain regulatory charges; and (iii) technical and non‑technical losses of energy on the higher of (i) contracted firm capacity or (ii) power capacity actually used.distribution system.  The energy charge,TE, expressed inreaisper MWh, is based on the amount of electricity actually consumed.  Group AThese consumers are those that will likely qualify asmay opt to purchase electricity in the Free ConsumersMarket under the New Industry Model Law.  See “—The Brazilian Power Industry—The New Industry Model Law.”Law”.

Group B consumers receive electricity at less than 2.3 kV (220V and 127V).  Tariffs for Group B consumers consist solely of anare charged for the tariff for using the distribution system and also for energy consumption charge andconsumption.  Both are based on the classification of the consumer.charged in R$/MWh.

The following tables setsset forth our average retail prices for each consumer category for 20112013 and 2010.2012.  These prices include taxes (ICMS, PIS and COFINS) and were calculated based on our revenues and the volume of electricity sold in 20112013 and 2010.2012.

Billing Procedures

The procedure we use for billing and payment for electricity supplied to our consumers is determined by consumer category.and tariff categories.  Meter readings and invoicing take place on a monthly basis for low voltageLow Voltage consumers, with the exception of rural consumers, whose meters are read in intervals varying from one to threetwo months, as authorized by relevant regulation.  Bills are preparedissued from meter readings or, onif meter readings are not possible, from the basisaverage of estimated usage.monthly consumption.  Low voltage consumers are billed within maximum three business days after the meter reading, with payment required withinminimum five business days after the invoice presentation date.  In case of nonpayment, we send the consumer a notice of nonpayment with the following month’s invoice and we allow the consumer up to 15 days to settle the amount owed to us.  If payment is not received within three business days after that 15-day15‑day period, the consumer’s electricity supply may be suspended.  We may also take other measures, such as inclusion of the consumer in the list of debtors of credit reporting agencies, or extrajudicial or judicial collection through collection agencies.

High voltage consumers are read and billed on a monthly basis with payment required within five business days after the invoice date.receipt of invoice.  In the event of nonpayment, we send the consumer a notice fourup to two business days, after the due date, giving a deadline of 15 days to make payment.  If payment is not made within three business days after that 15‑day period, the consumer’s service is discontinued.

According to data from ABRADEE for 2010,2012, the percentage of customers in default of our three largest distribution subsidiaries compare favorably to the average for other major Brazilian electricity distributors.  For this purpose, consumers in default are consumers whose bills are oneup to 8990 days due.overdue.  Bills due and outstanding for over 89360 days are deemed not recoverable.unrecoverable.

Customer Service

We strive to provide high-qualityhigh‑quality customer service to our distribution consumers.  We operate call centers at each of our distribution subsidiaries providing customer service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  In 2011,2013, our call centers responded to approximately 10.610.7 million calls.  We also provide customer service through our Internet website, which handled approximately 12.215.0 million customer requests in 2011,2013, and through our branch offices, which handled approximately 4.03.8 million customer requests in 2011.2013.  The growth in electronic requests has allowed us to reduce our customer service costs and provide customer service through our call center to a larger number of customers without access to the Internet.  Following receipt of a customer service request, we dispatch our technicians to make any necessary repairs.

Generation of Electricity

We are actively expanding our generating capacity.  In accordance with Brazilian regulation, revenues from generation are based mainly on assured energyAssured Energy of each facility, rather than its installed capacityInstalled Capacity or actual output.  Assured energyEnergy is a fixed output of electricity established by the Brazilian government in the relevant concessionagreement.  For certain companies, actual output is determined periodically by the ONS in view of demand and hydrological conditions.  Provided generators havethat a generation facility has sold theirits electricity and participateparticipates in the Energy Reallocation Mechanism,Mecanismo de Realocação de Energia (“MRE”), theyMRE, it will receive at least the revenue amount correspondingthat corresponds to the assured energy,Assured Energy, even if they doit does not actually generateall of it.the energy.  Conversely, if a generatinggeneration facility’s output exceeds its assured energy,Assured Energy, its incremental revenue is equal only to the costs associated therewith.

The Carioba facility has an installed capacityInstalled Capacity of 36 MW; however, it is outhas been officially deactivated since October 19, 2011 as provided for in Order No. 4,101 of commercial operations since February 19, 2011.  We have applied to terminate Carioba’sthe Carioba concession oncesince ANEEL reduced the subsidy associated with the Fuel Usage Quota Account (Conta de Consumo de Combustível), or the CCC account.Account.  ANEEL has recommended that the MME terminates Carioba’s concession.  The MME is currently analyzing ourthe request.

Small Hydroelectric Power Plants

We operate 46 small hydroelectric powerAt December 31, 2013, 12 of our 47 Small Hydroelectric Power Plants were under the management of two of our conventional generation subsidiaries, CPFL Geração and CPFL Centrais Geradoras.These 12 Small Hydroelectric Power Plants reported their results within the Conventional Generation segment.  They consist of two groups of facilities:

·Nine of these facilities were originally managed together with their associated distribution companies within our Distribution segment.  Law No. 12,783 of January 11, 2013 specified the conditions for the renewal of generation, transmission and distribution concessions obtained under articles 17, 19 or 22 of Law No. 9,074 of July 7, 1995.  Under Law No. 12.783, these concessions may be extended once, at the discretion of the Brazilian government, for up to 30 years, in order to ensure the continuity and efficiency of the services rendered and low tariffs.  In addition, Law No. 12,783 provided that holders of concessions that were due to expire in 2015, 2016 and 2017 could apply for early renewal in 2013, subject to certain conditions.  However, Resolution No. 521/12 published by ANEEL on December 14, 2012 established that the generation concessions to be renewed under Law No. 12,783 must be partitioned into separate operating entities where the Installed Capacity of the original concessionaire entity exceeded 1 MW.  On October 10, 2012, in anticipation of Law 12,783, we applied for early renewal of the concessions held by our distribution subsidiaries CPFL Santa Cruz, CPFL Jaguari, CPFL Mococa, CPFL Leste Paulista and CPFL Sul Paulista, which were originally granted in 1999 for a 16‑year term.  In application of the partition requirement under Resolution No. 521/12, we were required to separate the generation and distribution activities of three of the plants, Rio do Peixe I and II and Macaco Branco, whose generation facilities were transferred to CPFL Centrais Geradoras on August 29, 2013.  At that time, our Management decided for operational reasons to partition the generation and distribution activities of the remaining six facilities held by the five distribution subsidiaries (Santa Alice, Lavrinha, São José, Turvinho, Pinheirinho and São Sebastião), the generation facilities of which 34were also transferred to CPFL Centrais Geradoras.

·The remaining three facilities, Cariobinha, Salto do Pinhal and Ponte do Silva are owned by CPFL Energias Renováveis, threeheld by CPFL Geração and nine by some of our distribution companies.  Since 1988, we have been investingheld there since their concession contracts were signed.

On December 4, 2012, the concessions of the Rio do Peixe I and II and Macaco Branco Small Hydroelectric Power Plants were renewed for 30 years under Law No. 12,783.  The renewal of these concessions was subject to the following conditions:

(i)            The energy generated must be sold to all distribution companies in their renovation and automationBrazil according to increase their output.  The program principally involvesquotas defined by ANEEL (previously, energy was sold only to the replacement of existing turbines and upgrade of peripheral equipment and automated systems, as well as restoring infrastructure.  Through these initiatives, we hope to increase these plants’ assured energy and electricity production and reduce operational costs.related distribution subsidiary).

(ii)           The concessionaire’s annual revenue is set by ANEEL, subject to tariff reviews (previously, the energy prices were defined contractually and adjusted according to the IPCA).

(iii)          The assets that remained unamortized at the renewal date would be indemnified, and the indemnification payment would not be considered as annual revenue.  The remuneration relating to new assets or existing assets that were not indemnified would be considered as annual revenue.  Rio do Peixe I and II received a total of R$34.4 million in indemnification payments.  The assets of Macaco Branco had been fully amortized, and therefore generated no indemnification payment.

Renewable Generation

At December 31, 2013, through our subsidiary CPFL Geração, we owned a 58.84% interest in CPFL Renováveis, a company resulting from an association with ERSA, which holds our subsidiaries engaged in the generation of electricity from renewable sources.  Through CPFL Renováveis, in August 2011, we became the largest renewable energy generation group in Brazil in terms of Installed Capacity and capacity under construction, according to ANEEL.  We have fully consolidated CPFL Renováveis in our financial statements since August 1, 2011.  CPFL Renováveis carried out its initial public offering in July 2013, resulting in a decrease in our shareholding from 63% to 58.84%.

CPFL Renováveis invests in independent renewable energy production sources with low environmental and social impact, such as Small Hydroelectric Power Plants, wind farms, biomass‑fueled thermoelectric plants and photovoltaic solar plants, focusing exclusively on the Brazilian market.  CPFL Renováveis has extensive experience in the development, acquisition, construction and operation of electricity generating plants using renewable energy sources.  CPFL Renováveis operates in the four main segments of the renewable energy generation industry in Brazil:  Small Hydroelectric Power Plants, wind farms, biomass‑fueled thermoelectric plants and photovoltaic solar plants.  CPFL Renováveis operates in eight Brazilian states and its business contributes to the local and regional economic and social development.

At the date of this Annual Report, CPFL Renováveis consists of the generation entities described below.

All Installed Capacity and Assured Energy numbers stated in the discussion below refer to the full capacity of the plant in question rather than our consolidated share of such energy, which reflects our interest in the plant.

·24 subsidiaries involved in the generation of electric energy through 35 Small Hydroelectric Power Plants in operation, with aggregate Installed Capacity of 326 MW, located in the states of São Paulo, Santa Catarina, Rio Grande do Sul, Minas Gerais and Mato Grosso.

·37 subsidiaries involved in the generation of electric energy from wind sources, of which (i) 22 farms, located in the states of Ceará, Rio Grande do Norte and Rio Grande do Sul, are operational or generating revenues and have aggregate Installed Capacity of 719 MW, and (ii) the remaining 15 farms are under construction, scheduled to commence operations between 2014 and 2018, and are expected to have aggregate Installed Capacity of approximately 383 MW

·Eight subsidiaries involved in the generation of electric energy from biomass, all of which are operational, with total Installed Capacity of 370 MW, located in the states of Minas Gerais, Paraná, São Paulo and Rio Grande do Norte.  On August 27, 2010, CPFL Bioenergia’s Baldin plant, our first sugarcane bagasse‑powered plant started operations, with 45 MW of total Installed Capacity.  CPFL Bio Formosa began operations on September 2, 2011, with total Installed Capacity of 40 MW.  CPFL Bio Buriti became operational on October 7, 2011 with total Installed Capacity of 50 MW.  Bio Ipê became operational on May 17, 2012 with total Installed Capacity of 25 MW.  Bio Pedra became operational on May 31, 2012 with total Installed Capacity of 70 MW.  On October 18, 2012, we completed the acquisition of the Ester Thermoelectric Power Plant, which has total Installed Capacity of 40 MW.  CPFL Bio Coopcana and CPFL Bio Alvorada, each with 50 MW of total Installed Capacity, began operations on August 28, 2013 and November 11, 2013, respectively.

·One subsidiary involved in the generation of electric energy from a solar power plant, Tanquinho which is located in the state of São Paulo and has total Installed Capacity of 1.1 MWp.  Tanquinho started operations on November 27, 2012 and is expected to generate approximately 1.6 GWh/year.

The following describes our existing and operational renewable generation plants:

Small Hydroelectric Power Plants

Small Hydroelectric Power Plants are plants with generation capacity between 1MW and 30MW and a reservoir area of up to three square kilometers.  A typical Small Hydroelectric Power Plant reservoir does not allow for a continuous water flow.  Without a continuous water flow, Small Hydroelectric Power Plants operate under a “trickle” system.  Frequently, Small Hydroelectric Power Plants experience idleness when the available water flow is less than the turbine capacity.  If flows are greater than the equipment’s capacity, water is “spilled”.  Small Hydroelectric Power Plants may participate in the MRE, and the amount of energy sold by the power plant depends solely on its certificate of guarantee and does not depend on its individual energy production.  Most Small Hydroelectric Power Plants are built on medium‑sized rivers with considerable depth variations, generating enough hydraulic energy to power small turbines. 

CPFL Renováveis operates 35 of our 47 Small Hydroelectric Power Plants primarily under the concession regime and the authorization regime, all located in the state of São Paulo, Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso, Santa Catarina and Rio Grande do Sul.

There have been various revisions to CPFL Renováveis’ Assured Energy, which were mainly reductions in Assured Energy primarily due to the modernization projects we carried out at Gavião Peixoto, Chibarro and Capão Preto, the MME approved new assured energy levels at these plants, which increased from 19.3 GWh per year to 33.5 GWh per year for Gavião Peixoto, from 6.1 GWh per year to 14.8 GWh per year for Chibarro and from 8.7 GWh per year to 19.9 GWh per year for Capão Preto.reductions in operational performance.

The automation of these power plants allows us to carry out control, supervision and operations remotely.  WeSince CPFL Energia acquired the CPFL Renováveis renewable business, we have established an operational center for the management and monitoring of our power plants in Campinas, making it possible forthe city of São Paulo and in Fortaleza (in the state of Ceará).  We have also established an operational center to manage and monitor our wind farms, so that the entire production cycle of the power plants to beis now remotely controlled in real time.

Through 2013 we expect to begin projects to refurbish two power plants:  Andorinhas and Guaporé.

Biomass Thermoelectric Power Plants

Biomass‑fueled thermoelectric plants are generators that use the combustion of organic matter for the production of energy.  This organic matter may include products such as sugar cane bagasse, vegetable coal, biogas, black liquor, rice husk and wood chips.  Energy fueled by biomass is renewable and pollutes less than other energy forms, such as those obtained from the use of fossil fuels (petroleum and mineral coal).  The construction period of biomass‑fueled thermoelectric plants is shorter than that of Small Hydroelectric Power Plants (from one to two years, on average).  The necessary investment per installed MW for the construction of a biomass‑fueled thermoelectric plant is proportionally lower than the investment for construction of a Small Hydroelectric Power Plant.  On the other hand, the operation of a biomass‑fueled thermoelectric plant is generally more complex, as it involves the acquisition, logistics and construction of organic matter used for power generation.  For this reason, the operational costs of biomass‑fueled thermoelectric plants tend to be higher than the operational costs of Small Hydroelectric Power Plants.

Despite being more complex, biomass‑fueled thermoelectric plants benefit from:  (i) expedited environmental licensing; (ii) abundant fuel in Brazil, which may come from sub‑products of other activities (e.g. wood chips); and (iii) proximity to consumers, reducing transmission costs.  Fuel acquisition and logistics costs are significantly lower for biomass‑fueled thermoelectric plants compared to Thermoelectric Power Plants from non‑renewable sources.  Despite being eligible for the Clean Development Mechanism established by the Kyoto Protocol (Mecanismo de Desenvolvimento Limpo), or MDL, and having the potential to generate carbon credits, biomass‑fueled thermoelectric plants have encountered difficulties in obtaining approval for projects due to the methodology of the approval process.  CPFL Renováveis has been developing projects focusing on the open market.

We currently have eight biomass‑fueled thermoelectric plants under the authorization regime, located in the states of São Paulo, Minas Gerais, Rio Grande do Norte and Paraná.

CPFL Bioenergia.  In partnership with Baldin Bioenergia, we have constructed a co-generationco‑generation plant in the city of Pirassununga, in the state of São Paulo.  The total cost of the biomass thermoelectric power plant was R$104 million.  The construction beganPaulo, which became operational in October 2008 and commercial operations started on August 27, 2010.  This co-generationco‑generation plant has addedtotal Installed Capacity of 45.0 MW to our installed capacity.  AllMW.  The plant has an Assured Energy of 112.1 GWh and all of this electricity has been sold to CPFL Brasil.

Wind Farms

Project Santa Clara Wind Farms.  During 2009, CPFL Geração developed and planned a number of wind power generation projects and, in September 2009, acquired a complex of additional wind farms.  The Santa Clara wind farms I, II, III, IV, V, VI and Eurus VI will have aggregate installed capacity of 188 MW and aggregate assured energy of 693.3 GWh.  The construction of the wind farms has already started, and operations are scheduled to start in the second half of 2012.  The total estimated cost of construction is R$879 million. The electricity from these wind farms have been sold through an auction held in 2009, with CCEARs in force until 2032.

Project Campo dos Ventos Wind Farms.  In 2010, CPFL Geração acquired Campo dos Ventos I, III, V, São Domingos and Ventos do São Martinho wind farms7.The total estimated cost of construction of these five wind farms is R$657 million, and operations are scheduled to start in the second half of 2014.  They will have installed capacity of 138 MW and assured energy of 600.1157.7 GWh.  This project has an associated PPA in force until 2033.2033 with CPFL Brasil.

Project CPFL Alvorada. The UTE Alvorada plantis locatedin the city of Araporã, in the state of Minas Gerais, began operations in November 2013.  The total Installed Capacity of UTE Alvorada is 50 MW and Assured Energy is 158.6 GWh.  This project has an associated PPA in force until 2032 with CPFL Brasil.

Solar Power Plant

Tanquinho.  The Tanquinho solar power plant, in the state of São Paulo, started operations in November 2012, with total Installed Capacity of 1.1 MWp.  We expect Tanquinho to generate approximately 1.6 GWh per year.

Wind Farms

Wind power is derived from the force of the wind passing over the blades of a wind turbine, causing the turbine to spin.  The amount of mechanical power that is transferred and the potential of electricity to be produced are directly related to the density of the air, the area covered by the blades of the wind turbine and the wind speed and height of each wind turbine.

The construction of a wind farm is less complex than the construction of Small Hydroelectric Power Plants, consisting of the preparation of the foundation and installation of wind turbines, which are assembled on site by the suppliers.  The construction period of a wind farm is shorter than that of a Small Hydroelectric Power Plant, ranging from 18 months to two years, on average, and the investment per installed MW for the construction of a wind farm is proportionally lower than the investment for construction of a Small Hydroelectric Power Plant.  In contrast, theoperation may be more complex and there are more risks associated with the variability of winds, especially in Brazil, where there is little history of wind measurement.

Certain regions of Brazil are more favorable in terms of wind speed, with higher average speeds and lower volatility as measured by speed variation, allowing for more predictability in the volume of wind energy to be produced.  Wind farms operate in a complementary manner with hydroelectric plants, since wind speed is usually higher in drought periods and it is therefore possible to preserve water from reservoirs in scarce rain periods.  The complementary operation of wind farms and Small Hydroelectric Power Plants should allow us to “stock up” on electric power in the Small Hydroelectric Power Plants’ reservoirs during period of high wind power generation.  Estimates of the 2001 Wind Potential Atlas (Atlas do Potencial Eólico) (the latest study on the subject) indicate a wind energy potential of 143 GW in Brazil, a volume that greatly exceeds the country’s current total Installed Capacity of 3.4 GW as of December 31, 2013, signaling a high growth potential in this segment.  Wind farms are also eligible for MDL and have the potential to generate carbon credits for sale.

We currently have 22 wind farms under the authorization regime, located in Ceará, Rio Grande do Norte and Rio Grande do Sul.

Praia Formosa: Praia Formosa Wind Farm, in the state of Ceará, began operations in August 2009.  It has an Installed Capacity of 105 MW and an associated agreement with Eletrobras under the Proinfa Program to sell all of the energy generated for a period of 20 years.  The PPA is in force until August 2029.

Icaraizinho: Icaraizinho Wind Farm, in the state of Ceará, began operations in October 2009.  It has an Installed Capacity of 54.6 MW and an associated agreement with Eletrobras under the Proinfa Program to sell all of the energy generated for a period of 20 years.  The PPA is in force until October 2029.

Foz do Rio Choró: Foz do Rio Choró Wind Farm, in the state of Ceará, began operations in January 2009.  It has an Installed Capacity of 25.2 MW and an associated agreement with Eletrobras under the Proinfa Program to sell all of the energy generated for a period of 20 years.  The PPA is in force until June 2029.

Expansion of Installed Capacity

Demand for electricity in our distribution concession areas continues to grow.  To address this increase in demand, and to improve our margins, we are expanding our Installed Capacity in renewable generation.  CPFL Renováveis is constructing the Macacos I, São Benedito, Campo dos Ventos IV and Eurus V wind farms,Pedra Cheirosa Wind Farm Complexes, which we mentioned inare expected to have an aggregate Installed Capacity of383 MW (of which our 2010 annual report, have been deactivated due to technical reasons,consolidated share will be225 MW).  We expect that the total generating capacity from these facilities will become fully operational by the end of 2018.

Brazilian law providesand our concession agreements provide that all of our distribution and hydroelectric concessions or authorizations can be renewed once with approval from the MME or ANEEL as the granting authority, provided that the concessionaire so requests and that certain requirements related to the rendering of public services or hydropower exploitation are met.  We intend to apply for the extension of each concession upon its expiration.  We may face significant competition from third parties in bidding for renewal of such concessions or for any new concessions.  ANEELThe Brazilian government has absolute discretion over whether to renew existing concessions, and the acquisition of certain concessions by competing investors could adversely affect our results of operations.

Our Concessions and Authorizations

Hydroelectric generation projects with a capacity greater than 1,000 kW operated by an independent producerIndependent Power Producer can usually only be implemented through concessions granted by ANEEL through public biddings (and the execution of a concession agreement).  Requests to renew these concessions are examined by ANEEL on a case‑by‑case basis, according to the terms of the related agreement and public bidding note.  However, ANEEL retains the power to deny the request to extend the concession period.

Certain projects such as wind farms, small scale hydroelectric power plantsHydroelectric Power Plants and thermoelectric power plantsThermoelectric Power Plants are implemented through an authorization awarded by the granting authority without the need for a public bidding process (unlike concessions).  Renewal of these authorizations is also at the discretion of ANEEL and is decided on a case-by-casecase‑by‑case basis.  ANEEL must provide justification for its decisions and any renewal must foster the public interest.

For further information about concessions and authorizations, see “The Brazilian Power Industry – Concessions.”Industry—Concessions”.

Independent Power Producers

A generation company classified as an independent producerIndependent Power Producer under Brazilian law receives a concession or authorization to produce energy for its own consumption or for sale to local distribution companies, Free Consumers and other types of consumers.  The price to be charged by Independent Power Producers for the sale of energy to certain types of consumer is subject to general criteria established by ANEEL, whereas the sale price to others can be freely negotiated between the parties.

Concessionaires

A generation company classified as a concessionaire under Brazilian law receives a concession to distribute, transmit and/or generate electric energy.  Since concessions usually involve public services or assets, they can only be granted through a public bidding procedure (licitação pública).  AllMost of the tariffs charged by concessionaires of public services are determined by ANEEL and concessionairesANEEL.  Concessionaires are not free to negotiate these rates with consumers.consumers, except for (i) generation concessionaires, which are free to establish those rates, as long as their concessions have not been extended pursuant to Law No. 12,783/13, in which case ANEEL determines the tariff that must be applied and (ii) distribution concessionaires that may grant discounts to consumers (as long as equal treatment is granted to other consumers within the same category).

The concession agreement and related documents establish the concession period and whether the related concession can be extended.  For concessions to generate electric energy, the amortization period for the related investment is 35 years, renewable once for a maximum period of 20 years.years, according to Law No. 9,074/95 or for a maximum period of up to 30 years, if the concession period extension is subject to Law No. 12,783/13.

Although concession agreements and applicable laws generally allow for the extension of the concession period, such extension is not a right.  The decision to extend a concession agreement is subject to the discretion ofthe granting authority, which must provide justification for its decision, and the decision must foster the public interest.

Environmental

The Brazilian constitution gives both the Brazilian Federalfederal and State Governmentsstate governments the power to enact laws designed to protect the environment.  A similar power is given to municipalities whose local interests may be affected.  Municipal laws are considered to be a supplement to federal and state laws.  A violator of applicable environmental laws may be subject to administrative and criminal sanctions, and will have an obligation to remediate and/or provide compensation for environmental damages.  Administrative sanctions may include substantial fines and suspension of activities, while criminal sanctions may include fines and, for individuals (including executive officers and employees of companies who commit environmental crimes), imprisonment.

Our energy distribution, transmission and generation facilities are subject to environmental licensing procedures, which include the preparation of environmental impact assessments before such facilities are constructed.  Once the respective environmental licenses are obtained, the holder of the license remains subject to compliance with specific requirements.

The environmental issues regarding the construction of new electricity generation facilities require specially-tailoredspecially‑tailored oversight.  For this reason, CPFL Geração manages these matters in order to ensure that its policies and environmental obligations are given adequate consideration.  Decisions are made by environmental committees, whose members include representatives of each project partner and of each plant’s environmental management office.  Our environmental committees are constantly interacting with government agencies to ensure environmental compliance and future electricity generation.  In addition, we support local community programs that relocate rural families in collective resettlements and provide institutional support for families involved in the conservation of local biodiversity.

In order to facilitate compliance with environmental laws, we use an environmental management system compliant with ISO 14001 that has been implemented in all of our segments.  We have established a system to identify, evaluate and update matters relating to applicable environmental laws, as well as other requirements applicable to our environmental management system.  Our generation and distribution of electricity is subject to internal and external audits that verify whether our activities are in compliance with ISO 14001.  Our environmental management processes take into consideration our budgets and realistic forecasts, and always aim to achieve improvements at the financial, social and environmental levels.

The Brazilian Power Industry

In 2011,According to the ANEEL, as of December 31, 2013, the Installed Capacity of power generation in Brazil was 126,383 MW.  Historically, approximately 70% of the total Installed Capacity in Brazil has derived from Hydroelectric Power Plants.  Large Hydroelectric Power Plants tend to be far from the consumption centers.  This requires construction of large transmission lines at high and extra‑high voltage (230 kV to 750 kV) that often cross the territory of several states.  Brazil has a robust electric grid system, with more than 105,000 km of transmission lines with voltage equal to or greater than 230 kV and processing capacity of over 274,000 MVA from the State of Rio Grande do Sul through the State of Amazonas.

According to the EPE, electricity consumption in Brazil grew by 3.5% in 2013, reaching 464 GWh.  The MME approved aand the EPE estimate that electricity consumption will grow by 4.3% per year until 2023.  According to the ten-year expansion plan under whichpublished by the MME and the EPE, Brazil’s installed power generation capacityInstalled Capacity is projectedexpected to increase to 171.1reach 183.1 GW by 2020,2022, of which 115.1119.0 GW (67.3%(65.0%) is projected to be hydroelectric, 28.925.9 GW (16.9%(14.2%) is projected to be thermoelectric and nuclear and 27.138.1 GW (15.8%(20.8%) is projected to be from renewable sources.

In 2011, EletrobrásCurrently, approximately 31% of the Installed Capacity in Brazil is owned 36%by Eletrobras, a joint capital and publicly traded company controlled by the Brazilian government.  We are the second largest private player within the electricity generation sector, with 2.4% of Brazilian generation assets.  Through its subsidiaries, Eletrobrás is also responsible for 56%the market share. 

The distribution segment in Brazil remains fragmented, with six companies controlling approximately 50% of Brazil’s installed transmission capacity.  In addition, it holds interests in certain Brazilianstate-controlled entities involved in the generation, transmission andmarket.  We are the largest player, with 13% of the electricity distribution of electricity.  They include, among others, Companhia Hidroelétrica do São Francisco — CHESF and Furnas Centrais Elétricas.market.

Principal Regulatory Authorities

Ministry of Mines and Energy — MME

The MME is the Brazilian government’s primary regulatorauthority in the power industry.  Following the adoption of the New Industry Model Law in 2004, the Brazilian government, acting primarily through the MME, has assumed certain duties that were previously the responsibility of ANEEL, including drafting guidelines for the granting of concessions and issuing directives governing the biddingtender process for concessions that relate to public services and public assets.

National Energy Policy Council — CNPE

The National Energy Policy Council,Conselho Nacional de Política Energética (“CNPE”),CNPE, a committee created in August 1997, advises the President of Brazil on the development of national energy policy.  The CNPE is chaired by the Minister of Mines and Energy and consists of sixeight government ministers, and three members selected by the President of Brazil.Brazil, another representative of the MME and the president of the EPE.  The CNPE was created to optimize the use of Brazil’s energy resources and to guarantee national energy supply.

Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency — ANEEL

ANEEL is an independent federal regulatory agency whose primary responsibility is to regulate and supervise the power industry in accordance with policies set forth by the MME, together with other matters delegated to it by the Brazilian government and the MME.  ANEEL’s current responsibilities include, among others,others:  (i) administering concessions for electric energy generation, transmission and distribution, including the approval of electricity tariffs,tariffs; (ii) enacting regulations for the electric energy industry,industry; (iii) implementing and regulating the exploitation of energy sources, including the use of hydroelectric power,power; (iv) promoting the public biddingtender process for new concessions,concessions; (v) settling administrative disputes among electricity generation entities and electricity purchaserspurchasers; and (vi) defining the criteria and methodology for the determination of transmission tariffs.

National Electrical System Operator — ONS

The ONS is a non‑profitnonprofit organization that coordinates and controls the production and transmission of energy by electric utilities engaged in the generation, transmission and distribution of electric energy, and private market participants such as importers, exporters, and Free Consumers.activities.  The primary role of the ONS is to oversee generation and transmission operations in the Interconnected Power System, or SIN; subject to regulation and supervision by ANEEL.  The ONS’ objectivesObjectives and principal responsibilities of the ONS include:  (i) operational planning for the generation industry,industry; (ii) organizing the use of the domestic Interconnected Power Systemnational grid and international interconnections,interconnections; (iii) guaranteeing that all parties in the industry have access to the transmission network in a non‑discriminatory manner,manner; (iv) assisting in the expansion of the electric energy system,system; (v) proposing plans to the MME for extensionsexpansions of the Basic Network,Network; and (vi) submitting rules for the operation of the transmission system for ANEEL’s approval.

Electric Energy Trading Chamber — CCEE

The Electric Energy Trading Chamber,Câmara de Comercialização de Energia Elétrica (“CCEE”),CCEE is a nonprofit organization that is subject to authorization, inspection and regulation by ANEEL.  The CCEE replaced the Wholesale Energy Market, or MAE.

Table of Contents

Energy Industry Monitoring Committee — CMSE

The New Industry Model Law created the Energy Industry Monitoring Committee (Comitê de Monitoramento do Setor Elétrico (“CMSE”), or CMSE, which acts under the direction of the MME.  The CMSE is responsible for monitoring supply conditions within the system and for indicating steps to be taken to correct problems.

Concessions, Permissions and Authorizations

The Brazilian constitution provides that the development, use and sale of electric energy may be undertaken directly by the Brazilian government or indirectly through the granting of concessions, permissions or authorizations.  Historically, the Brazilian electric energy industry has been dominated by generation, transmission and distribution concessionaires controlled by the Federalfederal or Statestate governments.

Companies or consortia that wish to build or operate facilities for generation, transmission or distribution of electricity in Brazil must apply to the MME or to ANEEL, as representatives of the Brazilian government, for a concession, permission or authorization, as the case may be.

Concessions

Concessions grant rights to generate, transmit or distribute electricity in the relevant concession area for a specified period (as opposed to permissions and authorizations, which may be revoked at any time at the discretion of the MME, in consultation with ANEEL).  This period is usually 35 years for new generation concessions, and 30 years for new transmission or distribution concessions.  An existing concession may be renewed at the granting authority’s discretion.

The Concession Law establishes, among other things, the conditions that the concessionaire must comply with when providing electricity services, the rights of consumers, and the obligations of the concessionaire and the granting authority.  Furthermore, the concessionaire must comply with regulations governing the electricity sector.  The main provisions of the Concession Law are summarized below:

Adequate service.  The concessionaire must render adequate service with respect to regularity, continuity, efficiency, safety and accessibility.

Use of land.  The concessionaire may use public land or request the granting authority to expropriate necessary private land for the benefit of the concessionaire.  In such case, the concessionaire shallmust compensate the affected private landowners.

Strict liability.  The concessionaire is strictly liable for all damages arising from the provision of its services.

Changes in controlling interest.  The granting authority must approve any direct or indirect change in controlling interests in the concessionaire.

Intervention by the granting authorityTheAs per Law No. 12,767, of December 27, 2012, as modified by Law No. 12,839 of July 2013, the granting authority may intervene in the concession, by means of a presidential decree,acting through ANEEL, to ensure the adequate performance of services, as well as full compliance with applicable contractual and regulatory provisions.  Within 30 days after the date of the decree, the granting authority’s representativeANEEL is required to commence an administrative proceeding in which the concessionaire is entitled to contest the intervention.  During the term of the administrative proceeding, a persongovernment appointed pursuant to thegranting authority’s decreemanager becomes responsible for carrying on the concession.  If theThe administrative proceeding is notmust be completed within 180 days after the date of the decree,one year (which may be extended for two more years).  In order for the intervention ceasesto cease and the concession is returned to the concessionaire.  The concession is also returnedreturn to the concessionaire, if the granting authority’s representative decides notconcessionaire’s shareholders are required to terminatepresent a detailed recovery plan to ANEEL and correct the concession and the concession term has not yet expired.irregularities identified by ANEEL.

Table of Contents

Termination of the concession.  The termination of the concession agreement may be accelerated by means of expropriation and/or forfeiture.  Expropriation is the early termination of a concession for reasons related to the public interest that must be expressly declared by law.  Forfeiture must be declared by the granting authority after ANEEL or the MME has made a final administrative ruling that the concessionaire, among other things, (i) hasfailed to render adequate service or to comply with applicable law or regulation, (ii) no longer has the technical, financial or economic capacity to provide adequate service, or (iii) has not complied with penalties assessed by the granting authority.  The concessionaire may contest any expropriation or forfeiture in the courts.  The concessionaire is entitled to indemnification for its investments in expropriated assets that have not been fully amortized or depreciated, after deduction of any fines and damages due by the concessionaire.

Table of Contents

Expiration.  When the concession expires, all assets, rights and privileges that are materially related to the rendering of the electricity services revert to the Brazilian government.  Following the expiration, the concessionaire is entitled to indemnification for its investments in assets that have not been fully amortized or depreciated as of the expiration.

Renewal.  Law No. 12,783 of January 11, 2013 specified the conditions for the renewal of generation, transmission and distribution concessions obtained under articles 17, 19 or 22 of Law No. 9,074 of July 7, 1995.  Under Law No. 12.783, these concessions may be extended once, at the discretion of the Brazilian government, for up to 30 years, in order to ensure the continuity and efficiency of the services rendered and low tariffs.  In addition, Law No. 12,783 provided that holders of concessions that were due to expire in 2015, 2016 and 2017 could apply for early renewal in 2013, subject to certain conditions.  These conditions, in respect of distribution companies, have not yet been disclosed by the Brazilian government.  The renewal of generation concession is contingent on the satisfaction of the following conditions: (i) tariffs calculated by ANEEL for each hydroelectric plan; (ii) allocation of energy quotas to distribution companies in the National Interconnected System; and (iii) submission to the standards of service quality set by ANEEL.  For renewal, the assets remaining unamortized at the renewal date would be indemnified and the indemnification payment would not be considered to be annual revenue.  The remuneration relating to new assets or existing assets that were not indemnified would be considered annual revenue.  Resolution No. 521/12 published by ANEEL on December 14, 2012 also established that the generation concessions to be renewed under Law No. 12,783 must be partitioned into separate operating entities where the Installed Capacity of the original concessionaire entity exceeded 1 MW.  Law No. 12,783 also extinguished two sector charges (the CCC and the RGR Fund (see “—Regulatory Charges—RGR Fund and UBP” and “—Regulatory Charges—CDE Account”))

Penalties.  ANEEL regulations govern the imposition of sanctions against the participants in the electricity sector and classify the appropriate penalties based on the nature and importanceseverity of the breach (including warnings, fines and forfeiture).  For each breach, the fines can be up to two per cent2.0% of the revenue (net of value-addedvalue‑added tax and services tax) of the concessionaire in the 12-month12‑month period preceding any assessment notice.  Infractions that may result in fines relate to the failure of the agentconcessionaire to request ANEEL’s approval in the following cases, among others:  (i) execution of contracts between related parties in the cases provided by regulation; (ii) sale or assignment of the assets related to services rendered as well as the imposition of any encumbrance (including any security, bond, guarantee, pledge and mortgage) on them or any other assets related to the concession or the revenues of the electricity services; and (iii) changes in the controlling interests ofin the holder of the concession.  In cases of contracts executed between related parties that are submitted for ANEEL’s approval, ANEEL may seek to impose restrictions on the terms and conditions of these contracts and, in extreme circumstances, determine that the contract be rescinded.

The New Industry Model Law

Since 1995, the Federal GovernmentBrazilian government has taken a number of measures to reform the Brazilian electric energy industry.  These culminated, on March 15, 2004, in the enactment of the New Industry Model Law, which further restructured the power industry with the ultimate goal of providing consumers with a secure electricity supply at an adequate tariff.

The New Industry Model Law introduced material changes to the regulation of the power industry, with a view to (i) providing incentives to private and public entities to build and maintain generation capacity and (ii) assuring the supply of electricity within Brazil at adequate tariffs through competitive public electricity public biddingauction processes.  The key features of the New Industry Model Law include:

·        Creation of a parallel environmenttwo “environments” for the trading of electricity, including:  (1)(i) the regulated market,Regulated Market, a more stable market in terms of supply of electricity; and (2)(ii) a market specifically addressed to certain participants (i.e., Free Consumers and commercialization companies), called the free market,Free Market, that permits a certain degree of competition.

·        Restrictions on certain activities of distributors, so as to require them to focus on their core business of distribution, to promote more efficient and reliable services to captive consumers.Captive Consumers.

·        Elimination of self-dealing,self‑dealing, in order to provide an incentive to distributors to purchase electricity at the lowest available prices rather thenthan buying electricity from related parties.

·        Maintenance of contracts entered into prior to the New Industry Model Law, in order to provide regulatory stability for transactions carried out before its enactment.

The New Industry Model Law excludes EletrobrásEletrobras and its subsidiaries from the National Privatization Program, which is a program originally created by the Brazilian government in 1990 to promote the process of privatization of state-ownedstate‑owned companies.

Regulations under the New Industry Model Law include, among other items, rules relating to auction procedures, the form of power purchase agreementsPPAs and the method of passing costs through to Final Consumers.  Under these regulations, all electricity-purchasing agentsparties that purchase electricity must contract all of their electricity demand under the guidelines of the new model.  Electricity-selling agentsNew Industry Model Law.  Parties that sell electricity must provide evidentiary support linkinghave “ballast” for their sales (i.e., the allottedamount of energy tosold in CCEE must be sold to existing previously purchased under PPAs and/or plannedgenerated by the seller’s own power generation facilities.plants).  Agents that do not comply with such requirements are subject to penalties imposed by ANEEL.ANEEL and CCEE.

Beginning in 2005, all electricity generation, distribution and tradingtransmission companies, independent power producersIndependent Power Producers and Free and Special Consumers are required to notify the MME, by August 11st of each year, of their estimated electricity demand or estimated electricity generation, as the case may be, for each of the subsequent fiveyears.  Each distribution company is required to notify the MME, within the 60-day period preceding each electricity auction, of the amounts of electricity that it intends to contract in the auction.  Based on this information, the MME must establish the total amount of energy to be contracted in the regulated marketRegulated Market and the list of generation projects that will be allowed to participate in the auctions.  Distribution companies will also be required to specify the portion

Parallel EnvironmentEnvironments for the Trading of Electric Energy

Under the New Industry Model Law, electricity purchase and sale transactions are carried out in two different segments:  (i) the regulated market,Regulated Market, which contemplates the purchase by distribution companies throughpublic auctions of all electricity necessary to supply their consumersconsumers; and (ii) the free market,Free Market, which contemplates the purchase of electricity by non-regulatednon‑regulated entities (such as Free Consumers and energy traders).

Electricity distribution companies fulfill their electricity supply obligations primarily through public auctions.  In addition to these auctions, distributionDistribution companies will be able tomay also purchase electricity outside the public biddingauction process from:  (i) generation companies that are connected directly to such distribution company, except for hydro generation companies with capacity higher than 30 MW and certain thermo generation companies,companies; (ii) electricity generation projects participating in the initial phase of the Proinfa Program, a program designed to diversify Brazil’s energy sources, andsources; (iii) the Itaipu power plant.plant; (iv) auctions administered by the distribution companies, if the market that they supply is no greater  than 500 GWh/year; and (v) Hydroelectric Power Plants whose concessions have been renewed by the government under Law No. 12,783 of 2013 (in this latter case, in “energy quotas” distributed among the distribution companies by the Brazilian government, at prices determined by MME/ANEEL).  The electricity generated by Itaipu continues to be sold by EletrobrásEletrobras to the distribution concessionaires operating in the South/Southeast/Midwest Interconnected Power System, although no specific contract was entered into by suchthese concessionaires.  The rates at which the Itaipu-generated electricity generated by Itaipu is traded are denominated in U.S. dollars and established pursuant to a treaty between Brazil and Paraguay.  As a consequence, Itaipu rates rise or fall in accordance with the variation of the U.S. dollar/real  exchange rate.  Changes in the price of Itaipu-generated electricity generated by Itaipu are, however, subject to the Parcel A costCost recovery mechanism discussed below under “—Distribution Tariffs.”Tariffs”.

The Regulated Market

In the regulated market,Regulated Market, distribution companies purchase their expected electricity requirements for their captive consumersCaptive Consumers from generators through public auctions.  The auctions are administered by ANEEL, either directly or indirectly through the CCEE.

Electricity purchases are made through two types of bilateral agreements:  (i) Energy Agreements (Contratos de Quantidade de Energia); and (ii) Capacity Agreements (Contratos de Disponibilidade de Energia).  Under an Energy Agreement, a generator commits to supply a certain amount of electricity and assumes the risk that its electricity supply could be adversely affected by hydrological conditions and low reservoir levels, among other conditions, which could interrupt the supply of electricity.  In such cases, the generator would beis required to purchase the electricity elsewhere in order to comply with its supply commitments.  Under a Capacity Agreement, a generator commits to make a certain amount of capacity available to the regulated market.Regulated Market.  In such case, the generator’s revenue is guaranteed and the distributors must bear the risk of a supply shortage.  Together, these agreements comprise the energy purchase agreements in the Regulated Market,Contratos de Comercialização de Energia no Ambiente Regulado - CCEAR.CCEARs.

According to the New Industry Model Law, within certain limits (as explained below), electricity distribution entities will beare entitled to pass through to their respective consumers all costs related tothe cost of electricity they purchasedpurchase through public auction as well as any taxes and industry charges.

With respect to the granting of new concessions, the newly enacted regulations require bids for new hydroelectric generation facilitiesHydroelectric Power Plants to include, among other things, thea minimum percentage of electricity to be supplied to the regulated market.Regulated Market.

The Free Market

The free marketFree Market covers transactions between generation concessionaires, Independent Power Producers, (“IPPs”), self-generators,self‑generators, energy traders, importers of electric energy, Free Consumers and Special Consumers, as defined below.  IPPsConsumers.  Independent Power Producers are generation entities that sell the totality or part of their electricity to Free Consumers,distribution concessionaires and trading agents, among others.  The free marketFree Market will also include existing bilateral contracts between generators and distributors until they expire.  Upon expiration, such contracts must be executed under the New Industry Model Law guidelines.

In addition to Free Consumers, certain consumersSpecial Consumers with capacity equal to or greater than 500 kW may choose to purchase energy in the free market,Free Market, subject to certain terms and conditions.  These consumers are called “Special Consumers”.  Special Consumers may only purchase energy fromfrom:  (i) small hydroelectric power plantsSmall Hydroelectric Power Plants with capacity between 1,000 kW and 30,000 kW,kW; (ii) generators with capacity limited to 1,000 kW,kW; and (iii) alternative energy generators (solar, wind and biomass enterprises) whose capacity supplied to the system does not exceed 30,000 kW.  A Special Consumer may terminate its contract with the local distributor on 180 days’ prior notice for contracts with indefinite terms.  For contracts with a definite term the consumer must fulfill the contract, and or for long‑term contracts the consumer may terminate its contract on three years’ prior notice.  The Special Consumer may return to the regulated system upon 180 days’ prior notice to the distributor of its region.

State-ownedState‑owned generators may sell electricity to Free Consumers; however, unlike private generators, they may only do so through an auction process.

Recent Developments in the Free Market

On August 2, 2012, the MME enacted Act No. 455, providing for new rules regarding the registration of PPAs in the Free Market.  Currently, PPAs must be registered with the CCEE in advance on a monthly basis, but the electricity volume contracted may be adjusted on anex post basis after the consumption has taken place.  Under Act No. 455, from June 1, 2014 PPAs will need to be registered with the CCEE in advance on a weekly basis, and theex post volume adjustment will be prohibited.  As a result, parties will have to state their expected consumption volumeex ante, except when they have specifically indicated to the CCEE that the PPA in question refers to effective consumption.

These restrictions in the freedom of negotiation between sellers and buyers may have an impact on the cost of energy purchased in the Free Market, and may reduce the benefit to us of trading in the Free Market.

Auctions on the Regulated Market

Electricity auctions for new generation projects in process are held (i) five years before the initial delivery date (referred to as “A-5” auctions)A‑5 auctions; or (ii) three years before the initial delivery date (referred to as “A-3”“A‑3” auctions).  Electricity auctions from existing power generation facilities take place (i) one year before the initial delivery date (referred to as “A-1”“A‑1” auctions) or (ii) approximately four months before the delivery date (referred to as “market adjustments”).  Invitations toAuction bid in the auctionsannouncements are prepared by ANEEL in compliance with guidelines established by the MME, which include a requirement to use the lowest bidenergy price as the criterion to determine the winner of the auction.

Each generation company that participates in an auction executes a contract for purchase and sale of electricity with each distribution company, in proportion to the distribution companies’ respective estimated demand for electricity.  The only exception to these rules relates to the market adjustment auction, where the contracts are between specific selling and distribution companies.  The CCEAR of both “A-5”“A‑5” and “A-3”“A‑3” auctions have a term of between 15 and 30 years, and the CCEAR of “A-1”“A‑1” auctions have a term of between fiveone and 15 years.  Contracts arising from market adjustment auctions are limited to a two-yeartwo‑year term.  The total amount of energy contracted in such market adjustment auctions may not exceed 1.0% of the total amount of energy contracted by each distributor, except for the auctions held in 2008 and 2009, for which the total amount of contracted energy may not exceed 5.0%.distributor.

With respect to the CCEAR related to electricity generated by existing generation facilities, there are three alternatives for the permanent reduction of contracted electricity:  (i) compensation for the exit of potentiallyPotentially Free Consumers from the regulated market,Regulated Market, (ii) a reduction, at the distribution company’s discretion, of up to 4.0% per year inover the annualinitial contracted amount from existing power generation, excluding the first year of supply, due to market deviations from estimated market projections, beginning two years after the initial electricity demand was declared and (iii) adjustments to the amount of electricity established in energy acquisition contracts entered into before March 17, 2004.

Since 2005, CCEE has conducted fifteen21 auctions for new generation projects, eight12 auctions for existing power generation facilities, two auctions for alternatealternative generation projects and fourfive auctions for biomass and wind power generation, qualified as “reserve energy.”energy”.  No later than August 1st of each year, generators and distributors must provide their estimated electricity generation or estimated electricity demand for the five subsequent years.  Based on this information, the MME establishes the total amount of electricity to be traded in the auction and decides which generation companies may participate in the auction.  The auction is carried out in two phases via an electronic system.  As a general rule, contracts entered into in an auction have the following termsterms:  (i) from 15 to 30 years from commencement of supply in cases of new generation projects,projects; (ii) from fiveone to 15 years beginning in the year following the auction in cases of existing power generation facilities,facilities; (iii) from 10 to 30 years from commencement of supply in cases of alternatealternative generation projects,projects; (iv) 15 years from commencement of supply in cases of biomass reserve energyenergy; and (v) 20 years from commencement of supply in cases of wind power reserve energy.

After the completion of the auction, generators and distributors execute the CCEAR, in which the parties establish the price and amount of the energy contracted in the auction.  Great part of ourOur CCEARs providesprovide that the price will be adjusted annually in accordance with the IPCA broad consumer price index (Indice Nacional de Preços ao Consumidor Amplo, calculated and published byInstituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística– IBGE).IPCA.  However, we also use other indexes to adjust prices in our CCEARs, such as fuel prices.  Distributors grant financial guarantiesguarantees (principally receivables from the distribution service) to generators in order to secure their payment obligations under the CCEAR.

The Annual Reference Value

The regulation also establishes a mechanism, the Annual Reference Value, which limits the amounts of costs that can be passed through to Final Consumers.  The Annual Reference Value corresponds to the weighted average of electricity prices in the “A-5”“A‑5” and “A-3”“A‑3” auctions, calculated for all distribution companies.

The Annual Reference Value creates an incentive for distribution companies to contract for their expected electricity demands at the lowest price in “A-5”“A‑5” auctions and “A-3”“A‑3” auctions.  Distributors that buy electricity at a price lower than the Annual Reference Value in these auctions are allowed to pass through the full amount of the Annual Reference Value to consumers for three years.  The Annual Reference Value is also applied in the first three years of power purchase agreements for new power generation projects.  After the fourth year, the electricity acquisition costs from these projects are allowed to be fully passed through.  The regulation establishes the following limitations on the ability of distribution companies to pass through costs to consumers:  (i) no pass‑through of costs for electricity purchases that exceed 103.0%105.5% of actual demand; (ii) limited pass‑through of costs for electricity purchases made in an “A-3”“A‑3” auction, if the volume of the acquired electricity exceeds 2.0% of the demand for electricity purchased in the “A-5” auctions;electricity; (iii) limited pass-throughpass‑through of electricity acquisition costs from new electricity generation projects if the volume contracted under the new contracts related to existing generation facilities is lower than 96.0% of the volume of electricity provided for in the expiring contract; and (iv) full pass-throughpass‑through of costs for electricity purchases from existing facilities in the “A-1”“A‑1” auction if the purchase is limited to 1%higher than the minimum limit of the charge verified in the year prior to the distributor’s notification of estimated electricity demand to the MME.  If the acquired electricity in the “A-1” auction exceeds 1.0% of the charge, pass-through of costs related to the excess charge amount to Final Consumers is limited to 70.0% of the average value of such acquisition costs of electricity generated by existing generation facilities for delivery commencing in 2007 and ending in 2009.96%. The MME establishes the maximum acquisition price for electricity generated by existing projects that is included in auctions for the sale of electricity to distributors; and, if distributors do not comply with the obligation to fully contract their demand, the pass-throughpass‑through of the costs from energy acquired in the short‑term market will be the lower of the spot price (Preço de Liquidação de Diferenças (“PLD”), or PLD, and the Annual Reference Value.

Electric Energy Trading Convention

ANEEL Resolutions No. 109 of 2004 and No. 210 of 2006 govern the Electric Energy Trading Convention (Convenção de Comercialização de Energia Elétrica).  This convention regulates the organization and administration of the CCEE as well as the conditions for trading electric energy.  It also defines, among other things,things:  (i) the rights and obligations of CCEE participants,participants; (ii) the penalties to be imposed on defaulting participants,participants; (iii) the structure for dispute resolution,resolution; (iv) the trading rules in both regulatedRegulated and free marketsFree Markets; and (v) the accounting and clearing process for short‑term transactions.

Restricted Activities of Distributors

Distributors in the Interconnected Power System are not permitted toto:  (i) conduct businesses related to the generation or transmission of electric energy,energy; (ii) sell electric energy to Free Consumers, except for those in their concession area and undersubject to the same conditions and tariffs as those that are appliedapply to captive consumers,Captive Consumers; (iii) hold, directly or indirectly, any interest in any other company, corporation or partnershippartnership; or (iv) conduct businesses that are unrelated to their respective concessions, except for those permitted by law or in the relevant concession agreement.  Generators are not allowed to control or hold relevant equity interests in excess of 10.0% in distributors.

Elimination of Self-DealingSelf‑Dealing

Since the purchase of electricity for captive consumersCaptive Consumers is now performed through the regulated market,Regulated Market, “self‑dealing” (under which distributors were permitted to meet up to 30.0% of their electric energy needs through energy that was either self-producedself‑produced or acquired from affiliated companies) is no longer permitted, except in the context of agreements that were approved by ANEEL before the enactment of the New Industry Model Law.

Challenges to the Constitutionality of the New Industry Model Law

Political parties are currently challenging the New Industry Model Law on constitutional grounds before the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court.  In October 2007, the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court issued a decision ofregarding injunctions that had been requested in the Brazilian Supreme Court on injunctions presented on the matter, was published, denying the injunctions by a majority of votes.  To date, the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court has not reached a final decision, and we do not know when such a decision may be reached.  While the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court is reviewing the New Industry Model Law, its provisions remain in effect.  Regardless of the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court’s final decision, certain portions of the New Industry Model Law relating to restrictions on distributors engaging in businesses unrelated to the distribution of electricity, including sales of energy by distributors to Free Consumers and the elimination of self-dealing,self‑dealing, are expected to remain in full force and effect.

If the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court deems all or a relevantmaterial portion of the New Industry Model Law is deemedto be unconstitutional, by the Brazilian Supreme Court, the regulatory scheme introduced by the New Industry Model Law may become void, which will create uncertainty as to how and when the Brazilian government will be able to reform the electric energy sector.

Ownership Limitations

ANEEL had established limits on the concentration of certain services and activities within the electric energy industry, which it eliminated through Resolution No. 378 of November 10, 2009.

Pursuant to  Under Resolution No. 378, ANEEL will submitnow submits potential antitrust violations withinin the electric energy sector for analysis by the EconomicalEconomic Law Department of the Ministry of Justice (Secretaria(Secretaria de Direito Econômico – SDE).), or SDE.  ANEEL can also spontaneouslyhas the power to monitor potential antitrust activity, either at its own discretion or upon SDE’s request analyze potential antitrust actsof the SDE, by identifying:  (i) the relevant markets,market; (ii) the influence of the agentsparties involved in the exchange of energy on the submarkets where the parties operate,they operate; (iii) the actual exercise of market power in connection with market prices,prices; (iv) the participation of the parties in the power generation market,market; (v) the transmission, distribution and commercialization of energy in all submarkets,submarkets; and (vi)  thedistribution entities’ efficiency gains of the distribution agents during the tariffstariff review processes.process.

System Tariffs for the Use of the Distribution and Transmission Systems

ANEEL oversees tariff regulations that govern access to the distribution and transmission systems and establishestablishes tariffs for use of these systems.systems and energy consumption.  Different tariffs apply to different categories of consumers in accordance with how they connect to the system and purchase energy.  The tariffs areare:  (i) network usage charges, which are charges for the use of the proprietary local network of distribution companies (“TUSD”) andTUSD; (ii) tariffs for the use of the transmission system, which isconsisting of the Basic Network and its ancillary facilities, (“TUST”).or TUST; and (iii) the TE.

Basis of Calculation of Distribution Tariffs

Distribution tariff rates (including the TUSD) are subject to review by ANEEL which has the authority to adjust and review thesethe above tariffs in response to changes in energy purchase costs and market conditions.  When adjustingcalculating distribution tariffs, ANEEL divides the costs of distribution companies between (i) costs that are beyondnot under the control of the distributor, or Parcel A costs,Costs, and (ii) costs that are under the control of distributors,the distributor, or Parcel B costs.Costs.  The readjustment of tariffs is based on a formula that takes into account the division of costs between the two categories.

Parcel A8costs Costs include, among others, the following factors:

·        costs of electricity purchased from Itaipu;

·        costs of electricity purchased pursuant to bilateral agreements that are freely negotiated between the parties;

·        costs of electricity purchased pursuant to CCEARs;

·        certain other charges for use and connection to the transmission and distribution systems;

·        the cost of regulatory charges; and

·        the costs associated with research and development and energy energy‑efficient consumption.

Parcel B8costs Costs include, among others, the following factors:

·        a rate of return on investments in energy distribution assets;

Electricity distribution concessionaires are entitled to periodic revisions of their tariffs every four or five years.  These revisions are aimed at (i) at:

·assuring necessary revenues to cover efficient Parcel B operational costs and adequate compensation for investments deemed essential for the services within the scope of each such company’s concession, and (ii) 

·determining the “X factor”, which is based onconsists of three components:  (a) expected gains of productivity from increase in scale, (b) labor costs, and (c) investments.  In the current tariff cycle, ANEEL has changed the formula to calculate the X factor.  The X factor is now based on the

opotential increases in productivity, which is based on the level ofcosts as compared to market growthgrowth;

oservice quality; and increase in number of consumers and service quality.  In addition, it takes into account a target of efficient

oan operating expenses.  The increasesexpense target.

Increases in productivity and the operating expense target of efficient operating expenses will beare determined at each periodic review.  The service quality component will beis determined at each annual adjustment following the third periodic revision cycle.

The X factor is used to adjust the proportion of the change in the IGP-MIGP‑M index that is used in the annual adjustments.  Accordingly, upon the completion of each periodic revision, application of the X factor requires distribution companies to share their productivity gains with Final Consumers.

Each distribution company’s concession agreement also provides for an annual adjustment.  In general, Parcel A costsCosts are fully passed through to consumers.  Parcel B costs,Costs, however, are mostly restated for inflation in accordance with the IGP-MIGP‑M index.

In addition, electricity distribution concessionaires are entitled to an extraordinary tariff review (revisão extraordinária) on a case-by-casecase‑by‑case basis, to ensure their financial stability and compensate them for unpredictable costs, including taxes that significantly change their cost structure.

With the introduction of the New Industry Model Law, the MME has acknowledged that the variable costs associated with the purchase of electric energy may be included by means of the Parcel A Account or CVA, an account created to recognize some of our costs when ANEEL adjusts the tariffs of our distribution subsidiaries.  See “Item 5—5.  Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Overview—Recoverable Costs Variations—Parcel A Costs.”Costs”.

In November 2011, ANEEL established the methodology and procedures applicable to the periodic revisions for 2011 through 2014 for distribution concessionaires, based on the practices developed during a previous round of the periodic tariff reviews.  For information on the new methodology applicable to the third periodic revision cycle, see “Item 3.  Risk Factors—The tariffs that we charge for sales of electricity to captive consumersCaptive Consumers are determined by ANEEL pursuant to concession agreements with the Brazilian government, so our operating revenues could be adversely affected if ANEEL makes decisions relating to our tariffs that are not favorable to us.”us”.

Government Incentives to the Energy Sector

In 2000, a Federalfederal decree created the Thermoelectric Priority Program (Programa Prioritário de Termeletricidade (“PPT”), or PPT, for purposes of diversifying the Brazilian energy matrix and decreasing its strong dependency on hydroelectric plants.Hydroelectric Power Plants.  The incentives granted to the thermoelectric power plantsThermoelectric Power Plants included in the PPT are:  (i) guarantyguarantee of gas supply for twenty years, pursuant to MME regulations, (ii) an assurance that thecosts related to the acquisition of the electric energy produced by thermoelectric power plantsThermoelectric Power Plants will be transferred to tariffs up to the normative value established by ANEEL and (iii) guaranteed access to a special financing program for the electric energy industry from the Brazilian Economic and Social Development Bank, (“BNDES”).or BNDES.

Regulatory Charges

EER

The Reserve Energy Charge (Encargo de Energia de Reserva (“EER”), or EER, is a regulatory charge assessed on a monthly basis designed to raise funds for energy reserves contracted by CCEE.  These energy reserves will be used to increase the safety of the energy supply in the Interconnected Power System.  The EER is collected on a monthly basis from Final Consumers of the Interconnected Power System on a monthly basis.  Exceptionally, in 2009, the EER was collected in a single installment in March.registered with CCEE.

RGR Fund and UBP

In certain circumstances, electric energy companies are compensated for certain assets used in connection with a concession if the concession is revoked or is not renewed.  In 1971,1957, the Brazilian congressgovernment created a reserve fund designed to provide funds for such compensation, (“RGRknown as the “RGR Fund”)Public-industryPublic‑industry electric companies must make monthly contributions to the RGR Fund at an annual rate equal to 2.5% of the company’s fixed assets in service, not to exceed 3.0% of total operating revenues in any year.  The amount of this fee was most recently revised by ANEEL in February, 1999.  In recent years, no concessions have been revoked or have failed to be renewed, and the RGR has been used principally to finance generation and distribution projects.  The RGR should have phased out by 2010.  However, Law No. 12,431/12,431 of 2011 extended the imposition of this fee until 2035.  However, Law No. 12,783 of 2013 provides that, as of January 1, 2013, this charge is no longer levied on distribution companies or new generation and transmission concessionaires.

The Federal Government has imposedIndependent Power Producers that use hydropower sources similar must also pay a fee on IPPs similar to the fee levied on public-industrypublic‑industry generation companies in connection with the RGR.  IPPsRGR Fund.  Independent Power Producers are required to make contributions for using a public asset (Uso de Bem Público(“UBP”), or UBP, according to the rules set out in the public tender for the relevant concession’s public bidding process.  Eletrobrásconcession.  Eletrobras received the UBP payments until December 31, 2002.  All paymentscharges related to the UBP since December 31, 2002 have been paid directly to the Federal Government.

CCC Account

Distribution companies (and also some transmission companies responsible for Free Consumers) must contribute to theConta de Consumo de Combustível (“CCC Account”).  The CCC Account was created in 1973 to generate financial reserves to cover fossil fuel costs in thermoelectric power plants in the event of a rainfall shortage which would require increased use of thermal plants.  The CCC currently subsidizes the distribution systems in isolated areas where distribution costs are higher than in the Interconnected Power System.  The annual CCC Account contributions are calculated on the basis of estimates of the cost of fuel needed by the thermoelectric power plants in the succeeding year.  The CCC Account is administered by Eletrobrás.  The CCC Account, in turn, reimburses electric companies for a substantial portion of the fuel costs of their thermoelectric power plants.Brazilian government.

In February 1998, the Federal Government provided for the phasing out of the CCC Account.  During the 2003‑2006 period, subsidies from the CCC Account were phased out for thermal power plants constructed prior to February 1998 and belonging to the Interconnected Power System.  Thermal power plants constructed after that date were not entitled to subsidies from the CCC Account.  In April 2002, the Federal Government established that subsidies from the CCC Account would continue to be paid, for a period of 20 years, to those thermoelectric power plants located in isolated systems.  As of January 2010, according to Law No. 12,111/2009, the CCC Account reimburses electric companies not only for fuel costs in the isolated systems but also for costs incurred with power, operational activities, maintenance, social contribution and taxes related to the generation of energy.

CDE Account

In 2002, the Federal GovernmentBrazilian government instituted the Electric Energy Development Account,Conta de Desenvolvimento Energético (“ or CDE Account”),Account, which is funded through annual payments made by concessionaires for the use of public assets, penalties and fines imposed by ANEEL and the annual fees paid by agents offering electric energy to Final Consumers, by means of a charge to be added to the tariffs for the use of the transmission and distribution transmission systems.  These fees are adjusted annually.  The CDE Account was originally created to supportsupport:  (i) the development of energy production throughout Brazil,Brazil; (ii) the production of energy by alternative energy sourcessources; and (iii) the universalization of electric energy services throughout Brazil.  In addition, the CDE Account subsidizes the operations of thermoelectric generation companies for the purchase of fuel in isolated areas not connected to the Interconnected Power System, which costs were supported by the CCC Account, before the enactment of Law No. 12,783/13.  As from January 24,2013 (Provisional Measure 605/13), the CDE Account subsidizes discounts for certain categories of consumers, such as Special Consumers, rural consumers, distribution concessionaires and permissionaires, among others.  By Decree 7,945 dated March 24, 2013, the Brazilian government decided to use the CDE Account to subsidize: (i) a portion of the distribution companies’ energy costs on thermal generation in 2013; (ii) the hydrological risks of the generation concessions renewed under Law No. 12,783 in 2013; (iii) the involuntary energy under contract shortage because some generation concessions did not seek to renew their contracts and the energy produced by those concessions could not be reallocated to distributors; and (iv) part of the ESS and the CVA, such that the impact of tariff adjustments in connection with these two accounts is limited to 3% of adjustments from March 8, 2013 to March 7, 2014.  The CDE Account will be in effect for 25 years from 2002 and2002.  It is regulated by the ANEEL and managed by Eletrobrás.Eletrobras.

ESS

Resolution no. 173 of November 28, 2005 established a provision for the System Service Charge,Encargo de Serviço do Sistema (“ESS”),ESS, which since January 2006 has been included in price and fee readjustments for distribution concessionaires that are part of the National Interconnected Network (Sistema Interligado Nacional.Nacional).  This charge is based on the annual estimates made by ONS on October 31 of each year.

In 2013, due to adverse hydrological conditions, the ONS dispatched a number of Thermoelectric Power Plants, leading to increased costs.  These dispatches caused a significant increase in the ESS‑SE.  Since the ESS‑SE charge applies only to distribution companies (although it can subsequently be passed on by them to consumers) and to Free Consumers, the CNPE decided, through Resolution No. 03/2013, to spread the cost by extending the ESS‑SE charge to all players in the electrical energy industry.  This decision increased the cost base of our subsidiaries in businesses other than distribution (since they cannot pass on the cost to consumers), principally our generation segment.  However, certain industry participants, including our generation subsidiaries, are contesting the validity of Resolution No. 03/2013 and have obtained a court injunction, which was confirmed by the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court, exempting them from the ESS‑SE. 

Fee for the Use of Water Resources

The New Industry Model Law requires that holders of a concession and authorization to use water resources must pay a fee of 6.75% of the value of the energy they generate by using such facilities.  This charge must be paid to the federal district, states and municipalities where the plant or the plant’s reservoir is located.

ANEEL Inspection Fee (TFSEE)— TFSEE  

The ANEEL Inspection Fee is an annual fee due by the holders of concessions, permissions or authorizations in the proportion of their dimension and activities.  Currently, the ANEEL Inspection Fee is deducted from the RGR Fund.

Default on the Payment of Regulatory Charges

The New Industry Model Law provides that failure to pay required contributions to the RGR Fund, Proinfa Program, CDE Account, CCC Account,regulatory agent, or certain other payments, such as those due from the purchase of electric energy in the regulated marketRegulated Market or from Itaipu, will prevent the defaulting party from proceeding with readjustments or reviews of its tariffs (except for extraordinary reviews)revisions) and will also prevent the defaulting party from receiving funds from the RGR Fund and CDE Account or CCC Account.

Energy Reallocation Mechanism

Centrally dispatched hydrogeneratorshydro generators are protected against certain hydrological risks by the MRE, which attempts to mitigate the risks involved in the generation of hydrological energy by mandating that hydrogeneratorshydro generators share the hydrological risks of the Interconnected Power System.  Under Brazilian law, each hydroelectric plantHydroelectric Power Plant is assigned an “assured energy”,Assured Energy, which is determined in each relevant concession agreement, irrespective of the volume of electricity generated by the facility.  The MRE transfers surplus electricity from those generators that have produced electricity in excess of their assured energyAssured Energy to those generators that have produced less than their assured energy.Assured Energy.  The effective generation dispatch is determined by ONS, which takes into account nationwide electricity demand and hydrological conditions.  The volume of electricity actually generated by the plant, whetherless than or in excess of the assured energy,Assured Energy, is priced pursuant to a tariff denominated “Energy Optimization Tariff”energy optimization tariff, which covers the operation and maintenance costs of the plant.  This revenue or additional expense must be accounted for monthly by each generator.

ITEM 5.                       OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTSOperating and Financial Review and Prospects

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this annual report.

We prepared our consolidated financial statements included in this annual report in accordance with IFRS, as issued by IASB. Our consolidated annual financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010 are our first financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS.  We have applied IFRS 1 – “First‑time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards” in preparing these financial statements, and the comparative figures in respect of 2009 have been restated to reflect the first time adoption.

Overview

We are a holding company and, through our subsidiaries, wewe:  (i) distribute electricity to consumers in our concession areas,areas; (ii) generate electricity from conventional and renewable sources and develop generation projects andprojects; (iii) engage in electricity commercialization; and (iv) offer electricity‑related services.  We have four broad initiatives to improve our financial performance:  (i) the expansion of our generation Installed Capacity through greenfield and brownfield investments; (ii) the acquisition of additional distributors; (iii) the consolidation of our commercialization business as a market leader; and (iv) the provisiondevelopment of electricity-related services.  our service business.

Two very important drivers of our financial performance are the operating income margin and cash flows from our regulated distribution business.  In recent years, this business has produced reasonably stable margins, and its cash flows, while sometimes subject to short‑term variability, have been stable over the medium term.

Nevertheless, there are factors beyond our control that can have a significant impact, positive or adverse, on our financial performance.  We account for fourface periodic changes in our tariff structure, resulting from the periodic review of our generation subsidiaries (BAESA, ENERCAN, Foz do Chapecó and Centrais Elétricas da Paraíba – EPASA) using the proportionate consolidation method.  Upon adoption of IFRS in 2010, our generation subsidiary CERAN has become fully consolidated.  The first generation unit of Foz do Chapecó became operational in October 2010, the second generation unit became operational in November 2010,tariffs.  In 2011, a new methodology was defined by ANEEL for the third generation unit became operationalcycle of periodic reviews and all our distributors, which had their periodic reviews in December 20102011, 2012 and 2013, had a reduction in average tariffs.  For information on the fourth and final generation unit became operational in March 2011.  The thermoelectric power plants Termoparaíba and Termonordeste, both powered by fuel oil from the EPASA complex, became operational in December 2010 and January 2011, respectively. Since August 1, 2011, CPFL Energias Renováveis has been fully consolidated in our financial statements.

In September 2009, we acquired seven generation subsidiaries (Santa Clara I, Santa Clara II, Santa Clara III, Santa Clara IV, Santa Clara V, Santa Clara VI and Eurus VI), which are fully consolidated through our investment in CPFL Energias Renováveis.  They are schedulednew methodology applicable to start operations in the third quarterperiodic review cycle (2011 to 2014), see “Item 3.  Risk Factors—The tariffs that we charge for sales of 2012.  In July 2010, we acquired other six generation subsidiaries (Campo dos Ventos I, II, III, IV, São Domingos and Ventos de São Martinho), whichelectricity to Captive Consumers are also fully consolidated through CPFL Energias Renováveis.  Campo dos Ventos II is scheduleddetermined by ANEEL pursuant to start operations in 2013, and the five remaining companies of this complex are scheduled to start operations in 2014.  The Macacos I and São Benedito wind farms are scheduled to start operations in 2013 and 2014, respectively.

Additionally, in October 2009, we established CPFL Bio Formosa, which is fully consolidated in our financial statements through CPFL Energias Renováveis.  The main purpose of CPFL Bio Formosa is the generation of thermoelectric energy through co‑generation plants powered by sugar-cane bagasse and straw.  It began operations in the third quarter of 2011. 

Our indirect subsidiaries CPFL Bio Buriti, CPFL Bio Ipê and CPFL Bio Pedra are closely-held companies that were established on January 27, 2010concession agreements with the main purpose of generating thermoelectric energy and water stream through co-generation plants powered by sugar-cane bagasse and straw.  On August 26, 2010, CPFL Bio Pedra participated in the wind power reserve auction promoted byBrazilian government, so our operating revenues could be adversely affected if ANEEL in which it entered into an agreement for the supply of 24,3 MW medium of electricity for a term of 20 years beginning in 2013.  CPFL Bio Pedra and CPFL Bio Ipêmakes decisions relating to our tariffs that are schedulednot favorable to start operations in the second quarter of 2012.  CPFL Bio Buriti started operations in the second quarter of 2011. us”.

In 2011, we entered into an agreement with ERSA to combine assets and projects relating to renewable energy sources, and established CPFL Energias Renováveis.  We have been fully consolidating CPFL Energias Renováveis in our financial statements since August 1, 2011. 

In December 2011, through CPFL Energias Renováveis, we acquired 100% of the shares of Jantus S.L., or Jantus, a company engaged in generation of energy through renewable sources, especially wind power.  By acquuiringacquiring Jantus, we added the following projects to our portfolio:  (i) four wind farms in operation in the state of Ceará with installed capacityInstalled Capacity of 210 MW, and (ii) wind farm projectswith total installed capacityInstalled Capacity of 732 MW in the states of Ceará and Piauí, of which 412 MW has already been certified and eligible for participation in the next electricity auctions.

In June 2012, through our subsidiary CPFL Renováveis, we executed a Sale and Purchase Agreement for the acquisition of 100% of the shares of BVP, the holding company of Bons Ventos, which hold authorizations to explore wind farms with an aggregate installed capacityInstalled Capacity of 157,5157.5 MW.  The acquisition BVPwas complete on June 19, 2012.

In November 2012, Tanquinho started operations.  Tanquinho is still subjectthe first solar power plant in the state of São Paulo.  Tanquinho is located in the City of Campinas, with an Installed Capacity of 1.1 MWp.  It is located in an area of 13,700 square meters at Tanquinho Substation, which belongs to certain conditions, including approvalone of our distribution subsidiaries.  The Tanquinho plant is expected to generate approximately 1.6 GWh per year.  Our subsidiary CPFL Renováveis was responsible for building this project and is responsible for managing and operating the plant.

In June 2013, through our subsidiary CPFL Renováveis, we acquired the Rosa dos Ventos Wind Farms, with 13.7 MW of Installed Capacity.  This acquisition was completed in February 2014.

In August 2013, the Biomass Thermoelectric Plant Coopcana started operations, with installed power of 50 MW.  In September 2013, the Campo dos Ventos II Wind Farm with 30MW of Installed Capacity started operations, although construction of the transmission line is not yet complete, as described previously on “Item 4. Information on the Company—Overview”.  In November 2013, the Biomass Thermoelectric Plant Alvorada (“UTE Alvorada”) started operations, with installed power of 50 MW.

In December 2013, our subsidiary CPFL Renováveis traded at the Second A‑5/2013 Energy Auction 26.1 average MW to be generated by the regulatory authorities.Pedra Cheirosa Complex located in the state of Ceará, corresponding to 51.3 MW of Installed Capacity.  The contracts arising from this trade shall be executed with the electric energy distributors that stated themselves to be energy buyers at that auction.  The duration of these contracts shall be 20 years, and the start of energy supply shall take place on January 1, 2018.  The batches were sold at the average price of R$125.04 per MWh, with annual adjustments by the IPCA.

We have three broad initiatives to improve our financial performance:By the expansionbeginning of our installed capacity,2014, with the acquisition of additional distributors the Rosa dos Ventos Wind Farms, the commercial star-up of Atlântica Wind Farmsand when the development ofMacacos Iis expected to become fully operational, our commercialization and services business.  We have a portfolio of new hydroelectric generation projects that are becoming operational.  Of this new generation capacity, approximately 572 MW became operational in 2010 (taking into account our share of jointly-owned projects) and approximately 261 MW (of which our share was 147 MW), became operational in 2011. 

Installed Capacity will increase to 3,113 MW.  We expect a further 885 MW (of which our share will be 558 MW) of new generation capacitythe Campo dos Ventos Complex, the São Benedito Complex to become operational byin 2016 and the end of 2014 throughPedra Cheirosa Complex to become operational in 2018, our plants under construction.Installed Capacity will increase to 3,292 MW.

There are factors beyond our control that can have a significant impact, positive or adverse, on our financial performance.  We face periodic changes in our rate structure, resulting from the periodic revision of our rates.  For instance, the second cycle of periodic revisions, which took effect during 2007 and 2008 at each of our distribution companies, resulted in the reduction of our average rates.  For information on the new methodology applicable to the third periodic revision cycle (2011 to 2014), see “Item 3.  Risk Factors—The tariffs that we charge for sales of electricity to captive consumers are determined by ANEEL pursuant to concession agreements with the Brazilian government, so our operating revenues could be adversely affected if ANEEL makes decisions relating to our tariffs that are not favorable to us.”

Background

Regulated Distribution Tariffs

Our results of operations are significantly affected by changes in regulated tariffs for electricity.  In particular, most of our revenues are derived from sales of electricity to captive Final Consumers at regulated tariffs.  In 2011,2013, sales to captive consumersCaptive Consumers represented 69.9%68.6% of the volume of electricity we delivered and 75.5%66.7% of our operating revenues, compared to 71.0%60.8% and 76.1%70.8%, respectively, in 2010.2012.  These proportions may decline if consumers migrate from captive to free status.

Our operating revenues and our margins depend substantially on the tariff-settingtariff‑setting process, and our managementManagement focuses on maintaining a constructive relationship with ANEEL, the Brazilian government and other market participants so that the tariff-settingtariff‑setting process fairly reflects our interests and those of our consumers and shareholders.  For a description of tariff regulations, see “Item 4.  Information on the Company—The Brazilian Power Industry—Distribution Tariffs.”Tariffs”.

Tariffs are determined separately for each of our eight distribution subsidiaries as follows:

·        Our concession agreements provide for an annual adjustment to take account of changes in our costs, which for this purpose are divided into costs that are beyond our control (known as Parcel A costs)Costs) and costs that we can control (known as Parcel B costs)Costs).  Parcel A costsCosts include, among other things, increased prices under long‑term supply contracts, and Parcel B costsCosts include, among others, thereturn on investment related to our concessions and their expansion, as well as maintenance and operational costs.  Our ability to fully pass through our electricity acquisition costs to Final Consumers is subject to:  (a) our ability to accurately forecast our energy needs and (b) a ceiling linked to a reference value, the Annual Reference Value.  The Annual Reference Value is the weighted average of electricity acquisition costs resulting from electricity prices of all public auctions carried out by ANEEL and CCEE in the regulated marketRegulated Market for electricity to be delivered five and three years from any such auctionand only applies during the first three years following the commencement of delivery of the acquired electricity.  See “Item 4.  Information on the Company—The Brazilian Power Industry—The New Industry Model Law” for a more detailed description of all the limitations on the ability of distribution companies to fully pass through their electricity acquisition costs to Final Consumers.  Under agreements that were in force before the enactment of these regulatory reforms, we pass through the costs of acquired electricity subject to a ceiling determined by the Brazilian government.  The annual adjustment of tariffs occurs every April for CPFL Paulista, every June for RGE, every October for CPFL Piratininga and every February for CPFL Santa Cruz, CPFL Leste Paulista, CPFL Sul Paulista, CPFL Mococa and CPFL Jaguari.  There is no annual adjustment in a year with a periodic revision.

·        Our concession agreements provide for a periodic revision (revisão periódica), every five years for CPFL Paulista and RGE and every four years for CPFL Piratininga, CPFL Santa Cruz, CPFL Leste Paulista, CPFL Sul Paulista, CPFL Mococa and CPFL Jaguari, to restore the financial equilibrium of our tariffs as contemplated by the concession agreements and to determine a reduction factor (known as the X factor) in the amount of Parcel B costCost increases passed on to our consumers.  ANEEL’s Resolution No. 457/2011 has established the methodology applicable to the third periodic revision cycle (2011 to 2014).  For additional information, see “Item 3.  Risk Factors—The tariffs that we charge for sales of electricity to captive consumersCaptive Consumers are determined by ANEEL pursuant to concession agreements with the Brazilian government, so our operating revenues could be adversely affected if ANEEL makes decisions relating to our tariffs that are not favorable to us” and “Item 4.  Information on the Company—The Brazilian Power Industry—Distribution Tariffs.”Tariffs”.

·        Brazilian law also provides for an extraordinary revision (revisão extraordinária) to take account of unforeseen changes in our cost structure.  Since January 2009, our distribution companies no longer collect theThe last extraordinary revision that was institutedtook place on January 24, 2013 to adjust our tariffs as a result of the national energy rationing process that occurred in 2001.changes introduced by Law No. 12,783/13.  Law No. 12,783/13 reduced the CDE Account charge and eliminated the CCC and RGR charges, therefore reducing the Parcel A Costs (energy prices, charges for the use of the Basic Network and regulatory charges, which we pass on to our consumers). 

Annual Adjustment — RTA

Tariff increases apply differently to different consumer classes, with generally higher increases for consumers using higher voltages, to reduce the effects of historical cross-subsidiescross‑subsidies in their favor that were mostly eliminated in 2007.  The following table sets forth the average percentage increase in our tariffs resulting from each annual adjustment from 20092010 through the date of this annual report.  Rates of tariff increase should be evaluated in light of the Brazilian inflation rate.  See “—Background—Brazilian Economic Conditions.”Conditions”.

On February 2, 2010, ANEEL approved a proposal for an addendum to the concession contracts for electric energy distributors (the “Addendum to the Concession Contracts”).  The Addendum to the Concession Contracts changes the methodology for calculating the annual tariff adjustment, excluding the effect of market variations resulting from the difference between the projected and actual energy sold (mainly related to regulatory charges) from the calculation base when calculating tariff adjustments.  See “Item 4. Information on the Company—The Brazilian Power Industry – Industry—Distribution Tariffs” for further information on the calculation of our tariffs.  We do not expect the new calculation methodology to materially affect our future results or financial condition.

The new methodology was applied in calculating the tariff adjustments as of February 2010 for our eight distribution subsidiaries.

(1)   As a result of ANEEL’s delay in determining the methodology applicable to the third periodic revision cycle, CPFL Piratininga’s periodic review, originally scheduled for October 23, 2011, was postponed to October 23, 2012.  For the same reason, the periodic review process for CPFL Santa Cruz, CPFL Jaguari, CPFL Mococa, CPFL Leste Paulista and CPFL Sul Paulista have been postponed fromwas concluded on February 3, 2013 to February 3, 2012, without the ANEEL’s assessment for distribution subsidiaries’ administrative appeal.  This was assessed by ANEEL in January 2014, with the following results:  (i) Dispatch 165 of January 28, 2014 alters the tariff revision index from 7.20% to February 3, 2013. 7.18% for CPFL Mococa, mainly because of a Regulatory Asset Base, or RAB, reduction; (ii) Dispatch 212 of January 30, 2014 alters the tariff revision index from 4.36% to 4.16% for CPFL Santa Cruz, mainly because of a RAB reduction; (iii) Dispatch 166 of January 28, 2014 alters the tariff revision index from ‑2.20% to ‑2.00% for CPFL Leste Paulista, mainly because of an increase in RAB and losses; (iv) Dispatch 211 of January 30, 2014 alters the tariff revision index from ‑3.72% to ‑3.78 % for CPFL Sul Paulista, mainly because of a RAB reduction; and (v) Dispatch 167 of January 28, 2014 alters the tariff revision index from 7.10% to -7.09% for CPFL Jaguari, mainly because of a RAB increase.

(2)   CPFL Piratininga filed an administrative appeal questioning the regulatory losses in the periodic review process.  The appeal was assessed by ANEEL, and Dispatch 3,426, issued in October  8, 2013 altered the result of the periodic review process from ‑4.45% to ‑3.95%.

Extraordinary Tariff Adjustment – RTE

As established by Law No. 12.783/2013, all distributors had an RTE from January 24, 2013 in order to pass on to consumers the effects promoted by the renewal of generation and transmission concessions and the reduction in regulatory charges.

Sales to Potentially Free Consumers

The Brazilian government has introduced regulatory changes intended to foster the growth of open-marketopen‑market energy transactions by permitting qualifying consumers to opt out of the system of tariff regulation and become “free” consumersFree Consumers entitled to contract freely for electricity.  See “Item 4. Information on the Company—The Brazilian Power Industry—The Free Market.”Market”.  To date, as compared to the total number of our captive consumers,Captive Consumers, the number of potentiallyPotentially Free Consumers is relatively small, but they account for a significant amount of our electricity sales and revenues.  In 2010both 2013 and 2011,2012, approximately 22.6% and 17.6%, respectively,17.0% of our electricity sales were to supply potentiallyPotentially Free Consumers.  Most of our potentiallyPotentially Free Consumers have not elected tobecome Free Consumers.  We believe this is becausebecause:  (i) they consider the advantages of negotiating for a long-termlong‑term contract at rates lower than the regulated tariff are outweighed by the need to bear additional costs (particularly transmission costs) and the long-termlong‑term price riskrisk; and (ii) some of our potentiallyPotentially Free Consumers, who entered into contracts before July 1995, may only change to suppliers that purchase from renewable energy sources, such as small hydroelectric power plantsSmall Hydroelectric Power Plants or biomass.  Even if a consumer decides to migrate from the regulated tariff system and become a Free Consumer, it still has to pay us network usage charges, and such payments would mitigate the loss in operating income from any such migration.  We do not expect to seethat a substantial number of our consumers will become Free Consumers, but the prospects for migration between the different markets (captive and free) over the long term, and its implications for our financial results, are difficult to predict.

Prices for Purchased Electricity

The prices of electricity purchased by our distribution companies under long‑term contracts executed in the regulated market areRegulated Market are:  (i) approved by ANEEL in the case of agreements entered into before the New Industry Model LawLaw; and (ii) determined in auctions for agreements entered into thereafter, while the prices of electricity purchased in the free marketFree Market are agreed by bilateral negotiation based on prevailing market rates.  In 2011,2013, we purchased 50,85357,692 GWh, compared to 52,38462,597 GWh in 2010.2012.  Prices under long‑term contracts are adjusted annually to reflect increases in certain generation costs and inflation.  Most of our contracts have adjustments linked to the annual adjustment in distribution tariffs, so that the increased costs are passed through to our consumers in increased tariffs.  Since an increasing proportion of our energy is purchased at public auctions, the success of our strategies in these auctions affects our margins and our exposure to price and market risk, as our ability to pass through costs of electricity purchases depends on the successful projection of our expected demand.

We also purchase a substantial amount of electricity from Itaipu under take-or-paytake‑or‑pay obligations at prices that are governed by regulations adopted under an international agreement.  Electric utilities operating under concessions in the Midwest, South and Southeast regions of Brazil are required by law to purchase a portion of Brazil’s share of Itaipu’s available capacity.  In 2011,2013, we purchased 10,85510,719 GWh of electricity from Itaipu (21.3%(18.6% of the electricity we purchased in terms of volume), as compared to 10,83510,781 GWh (20.7%(17.2% of the electricity we purchased)purchased in 2010.terms of volume) in 2012.  See “Item 4.  Information of the Company—Purchases of Electricity—Itaipu.”Electricity”.  The price of electricity from Itaipu is set in U.S. dollars to reflect the costs of servicing its indebtedness.  Accordingly, the price of electricity purchased from Itaipu increases in Brazilianreaiswhen therealdepreciates against the U.S. dollar (and decreases when therealappreciates).  The change in our costs for Itaipu electricity in any year is subject to the Parcel A costCost recovery mechanism described below.

In 2011, our installed capacity reached 2,644 MW.  CPFL Bioenergia, Foz do Chapecó and Termonordeste power plants started operations in August, October and December 2010, respectively.  In July 2010, we acquired Campo dos Ventos wind farms in the state of Rio Grande do Norte.  Also in 2010, we constituted CPFL Bio Ipê and CPFL Bio Pedra to develop electric energy generation projects from sugar cane bagasse in partnership with Grupo Pedra Agroindustrial.  Operations of Bio Ipê and Bio Pedra are expected to commence in 2012.  In 2011, Termoparaíba, CPFL Bio Formosa and CPFL Bio Buriti thermoelectric plants, as well as the fourth generating unit of Foz do Chapecó, started operations.  In February 2012, the construction of CPFL Bio Alvorada and CPFL Bio Coopcana biomass thermoelectric power plants began, and operations are scheduled to start in 2013.  Operations of Macacos I and São Benedito wind farms are scheduled to start in 2013 and 2014, respectively.  As a result of our electric energy generation projects in progress, our installed capacity will reach 3,301 MW, which represents an increase of 25% by 2014 (including the wind farms from the Bons Ventos complex).

Most of the electricity we acquired in the free marketFree Market was purchased by our commercialization subsidiary CPFL Brasil, which resells electricity to Free Consumers and other concessionaries and licensees (including our subsidiaries).  See “—The Brazilian Power Industry—The Free Market.”Market”.

Recoverable Cost Variations—Parcel A Costs

We use the CVA or the Parcel A account to recognize some of our costs in the distribution tariff, referred to as “Parcel A” costs,Costs, that are beyond our control.  When these costs are higher than the forecasts used in setting tariffs, we are generally entitled to recover the difference through subsequent annual tariff adjustments.

Under IFRS, regulatory assets and liabilities cannot be accounted forrecognized  because they do not comply with assets and liabilities requirements established by the Framework for the Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements (Estrutura Conceitual para Elaboração e Apresentação das Demonstrações Contábeis) issued by IASB and the Brazilian Securities Commission,Comissão de Valores Mobiliários(“CVM”).IASB.  Therefore, we only account for rights or compensations when our captive clients effectively pay us.were billed.

The costs of electricity purchased from Itaipu are indexed to the U.S. dollar exchange variation.  If the U.S. dollar appreciates against thereal, our costs will increase and, consequently, our revenuesincome will decrease in the same period.  These losses will be offset in the future, when the next annual tariff adjustments occur.

Operating Segments

As a result ofIn connection with our association with ERSA and the acquisition of Jantus’ shares,Jantus in 2011, we have created a separate operating segment to segregate our activities relating to renewable energy generation sources.  Therefore, sinceAs a result, our financial reporting was separated into four operating segments with effect fromAugust1, 2011:  (i) distribution; (ii) conventional generation sources; (iii) renewable generation sources; and (iv) commercialization.  Financial information relating to our renewable generation sources segment in 2011 consists of our historical renewable generation activities for the month ofAugust2011 (which activities were reported within our conventional generation segment for the first sevenmonths of 2011 and in prior periods2) and, with effect from August 1, 2011, we have been operating with four different reportable segments: distribution, conventional generation sources,the renewable generation sourcesassets acquired through our association with ERSA and commercialization.  SeeJantus.  In addition, commencing January 1, 2012, we began to analyze our services activities on a segregated basis.  As a result, as discussed in note 30 to our audited consolidated financial statements.  Because there is no information onstatements, we now present our financial results under five operating segments:  (i) distribution; (ii) conventional generation sources; (iii) renewable generation segment for 2010, the discussion below will focus on the distribution, conventional generation sourcessources; (iv) commercialization; and commercialization segments.(v) services.

Our generationresults for the years 2013, 2012 and commercialization2011 discussed below have been restated to reflect our five reporting segments.  However, the discussion of the years 2012 and services segments currently represent2011 does not include a small percentagefull comparative analysis of our net revenues:  5.5% and 7.9% inthe variations between the two periods, since the ERSA’sassets only impacted the last five months of 2011 and 4.5%, and 8.4% in 2010, respectively.  However, the contribution of our  generation and commercialization and services segments to our net income was higher (23.3%and 10.1% in 2011, respectively).Jantus only December 2011.

The profitability of our segments differs.  Our distributionDistribution segment primarily reflects primarily sales to captive consumersCaptive Consumers and TUSD charges paid by Free Consumers at prices determined by the regulatory authority.  The volume sold varies according to external factors such as weather, income level and economic growth.  This segment represents 86.6%79.1% of our net operating revenue, but its contribution to our net income is a bit smaller.  In 2011, 70.2%2013, 76.5% of our net income was derived from our distribution activities while 3.6%(in 2012, our distribution activities accounted for 68.7% of our net income consumed withinand 69.6% in 2011).

Our conventional generation, renewable generation, commercialization and services segments currently represent a small percentage of our net revenues:  6.3%, 7.4%, 12.6% and 1.4% for the segment intitled “Other” inyear ended December 31, 2013, and 5.6%, 5.5%, 12.7% and 1.2% for the table below.year ended December 31, 2012, respectively.  The contribution of our conventional generation, renewable generation, commercialization and services segments to our net income differs (32.9%, ‑5.8%, 3.8%and 1.7% for the year ended December 31, 2013, respectively, and28.7%, 0.7%, 8.5% and 2.2% for the year ended December 31, 2012, respectively).  For the year ended December 31, 2011, the contribution of our conventional generation, renewable generation, commercialization and services segments to our net income was 24.2%, 5.9%, 12.2% and 1.0%, respectively

Our conventional generation sources segment consists in substantial part of new hydroelectric plants,Hydroelectric Power Plants, and our renewable generation sources segment consists of wind farms, biomass thermoelectric projectsBiomass Thermoelectric Power Plants and small hydroelectric power plants.Small Hydroelectric Power Plants.  All of our generation sources require a high level of investment in fixed assets, and in the early years there is typically a high level of construction financing.  SinceOnce these projects became operational, they have resultedwill result in a higher margin (operating income as a percentage of revenue) than the distributionDistribution segment, but havewill also contributedcontribute to higher interest expenses and other financing costs.  For example, in 2011 and 2010the year ended December 31, 2013, our renewable generation sources segment provided 29.4% and 22.5%, respectively,9.1% of our operating income, but due to the relative significance of thesignificant financial expenses incurred to finance these projects, the segment’s contribution to net income was lower.  In 2011, 23.3% of our net income was derived from our generation activities.negative (-5.8%).


We have been reporting our renewable generation sources segment according to IFRS rules since2Since August 1, 2011, asafter a resultseries of our association with ERSAcorporate restructuring, the renewable energy assets and Jantus. For this reason, we have no individual comparative information for 2010,projects previously held by the subsidiaries CPFL Geração and discussion of results and operations relating to our renewable generation sources segmentCPFL Brasil have been associated with discussion of results and operations of our conventionalanalyzed by Management as an energy generation from renewable sources segment. As the amounts were immaterial, these assets remained in the conventional energy segment for the first seven months of 2011.

As of December 31, 2011, 30.3%2013, 11.7% of the property, plant and equipment in the renewable generation sources segment was under construction.

Our commercialization and services segment sells electricity and provides value-added services to Free Consumers and other concessionariesconcessionaires or licensees.  In 2011, 10.1%For the year ended December 31, 2013, 3.8% of our net income was derived from our commercialization activities, compared to 8.5% for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Our services segment offers our consumers a wide range of electricity‑related services.  These services are designed to help consumers improve the efficiency, cost and reliability of the electric equipment they use.  For the year ended December 31, 2013, 1.7% of our net income was derived from the services activities.segment, compared to 2.2% of our net income for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Our segments also purchase and sell electricity and value-addedvalue‑added services tofrom and fromto one another.  In particular, our generation (from both conventional and renewable sources), commercialization and services segments sell electricity and provide services to our distributionDistribution segment.  In order to avoid duplication of revenue and expense amounts, the results by segment in ourOur consolidated financial statements eliminate revenues and expenses that relate to sales from one subsidiary to another.  However, the analysis of results by segment would be inaccurate if the same eliminationsset‑offs were carried out with respect to salesbetween segments.  As a result, sales from one segment to another have not been eliminated or set‑off in the discussion of results by segment below.  See below:

Brazilian Economic Conditions

All of our operations are in Brazil, and we are affected by general Brazilian economic conditions.  In particular, the general performance of the Brazilian economy affects demand for electricity, and inflation affects our costs and our margins. The Brazilian economic environment has been characterized

Some factors may significantly affect demand for electricity, depending on the category of consumers:

·Residential and Commercial Consumers.  These segments are highly affected by significant variationsweather conditions, labor market performance, income distribution, credit availability, amongst other factors.  Elevated temperatures and increases in income levels cause an increased demand for electricity and, therefore, increase our sales.

·Industrial consumers.  Consumption for industrial consumers is related to economic growth rates, with very low growth from 2001 through 2003 and an economic recovery since 2004.  This trend was interrupted by the internationalinvestments, mostly correlated to industrial production.  During periods of financial crisis, this category suffers the strongest impact.

Inflation primarily affects our business by increasing operating costs and financial expenses to service our inflation‑indexed debt instruments.  We are able to recover a portion of these increased costs through the Parcel A Cost recovery mechanism, but there is a delay in 2009.  In 2010,time between when the Brazilian economic environment experienced strong growth as it recovered afterincreased costs are incurred and when the international financial crisis of 2008/2009.  In 2011, international economic trouble, specifically inincreased revenues are received following our annual tariff adjustments.  The amounts owed to us under Parcel A are indexed to the Euro Zone, was reflected in the reduced growthvariation of the Brazilian economy.SELIC rate until they passed through to our tariffs.

Net Operating Revenues

OurCompared to the year ended December 31, 2012, net operating revenues weredecreased 1.7% (or R$12,764 million257 million) in 2011,the year ended December 31, 2013, amounting R$14,634 million.  The decrease in operating revenue primarily reflected the decline in revenues in our eight distribution subsidiaries, due to the decrease in the average tariffs charged as a 6.2% increase comparedresult of Law 12,783/2013, which ANEEL ratified the result of the RTE, in 2013 for our distribution companies, applied to 2010.  Excludingconsumption from January 24, 2013 and tariff adjustments, impacting the electricity sales to Captive Consumers and TUSD revenue from Free Consumers in our concession areas. Also is included in net operating revenue the revenues relating to the construction of concession infrastructure (whichin the amount of R$1,004 million, which does not affect the resultresults, due to corresponding costs in the same amount), net operating revenues would be R$11,634 million, a 6.0%, or R$654 million, increase.  The increase in our net operating revenues primarily reflected higher revenues deriving from our distribution companies, which had increased sales to captive consumers (and, consequently, higher TUSD collections) and tariff adjustments.amount.

The following discussion describes changes in our net operating revenues by destination and by segment, based on the items comprising our gross revenues.

Sales by Destination

Sales to final consumers

OurCompared to the year ended December 31, 2012, our gross operating revenues from sales to Final Consumers weredecreased 9.0% in the year ended December 31, 2013, to R$14,907 million in 2011, a 7.0% increase compared19,339 million.  Our gross operating revenues reflect primarily sales to 2010.  TariffsCaptive Consumers at concession areas from our eight distribution subsidiaries, and are subject to tariff adjustment as shown below:

The tariffs of the distribution companies are adjusted every year, in percentages specific to each year, and thecategory of consumer.  The month in which the tariff adjustment takes effect varies, with the increases inbecomes effective varies.  The adjustment at the largest subsidiaries taking effectoccurred in April (CPFL Paulista), June (RGE) and October (CPFL Piratininga).  In the year ended December 31, 2013, energy prices decreased by an average of 15.4%, mainly due to the result of the RTE in 2013, applied to consumption from January 24, 2013, partially offset by the net effect of the RTA at the following distributors:  CPFL Paulista (6.18%), RGE (‑10.64%) and CPFL Piratininga (6.91%).  See note 26 to our audited consolidated financial statements.  Average prices tofor Final Consumers in 20112013 were higher inlower for all consumer categories:

·        Industrial and Commercial Consumers.  For industrialResidential and commercial consumers that are captive consumers.  With respect to Captive Consumers (which represent 81.2%99.2% of the total volumeamount sold to these categories)this category in our consolidated statements), average prices increased by 4.8%decreased 18.7% and 4.3%14.3%, respectively, due to the annual tariff adjustments.  For those that areadjustment (RTA) and extraordinary tariff adjustment (RTE), as described above.  With respect to Free Consumers, the average pricesprice for the commercial consumers increased by 18.2% and 16.7%, respectively.7.6%.

The volume sold to industrial consumers decreased 4.5%,increased 1.1% in the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, which represents 26.1% of our sales to Final Consumers, reflecting a decreasethe modest performance of 7.5%industrial production in salesthis period.  I2013, the volume sold in this category to captive Final Consumers decreased 6.0%, which was partially offset by a 8.7%an increase of 14.5% in volume sales to this category in the free market.  IndustrialFree Market, mainly due to the growth of 19.6% our subsidiary CPFL Brasil, which positive result was arising from the successful sales drive directed towards industrial customers in the Free Market.  Additionally, industrial consumers in our distribution concession areas who purchasethat buy from other suppliers in the free marketFree Market also pay us a fee for the use of our network, and this revenue is reflected in our audited financial statements under “Other Operating Revenues.”Revenues”.

Sales to wholesalers

OurCompared to the year ended December 31, 2012, our gross operating revenues from sales to wholesalers wereincreased 20.8% (or R$1,298434 million) to R$2,522 million in 2011 (6.9%the year ended December 31, 2013 (13.0% of gross operating revenues), due mainly to (i) an increase of 7.3% (or R$30 million) in sales to Furnas as a result of the tariff increase of 7.8% in relation to the effect of the IGP‑M and (ii) an increase of 26.8% (or R$396 million) in sales of electricity to the other concessionaires andlicenseesmainly by the growth in sales of electricity from our conventional generation subsidiaries (R$72 million) and renewable generation subsidiaries (R$250 million). For more information on net operating revenues from our segments, see “—Sales  by Segment”.

Other operating revenues

Compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, our other gross operating revenues decreased 5.5% (or R$170 million) in the year ended December 31, 2013 to R$2,939 million (15.2% of our gross operating revenues), mainly due to (i) the decrease of 31.6% (or R$447 million) in TUSD revenue for making the electric grid available arising from the RTE in the year ended December 31, 2013, applied to consumption from January 24, 2013, (ii) the decrease of 25.7% (or R$347 million) in revenue relating to the construction of concession infrastructure, as a result of lower investments, (iii) partially offset by the increase of R$576 million with reference to accounting for the low income subsidy and discounts on tariffs reimbursed by funds from the CDE Account.

Deductions from operating revenues

We deduct certain taxes and industry charges from our gross operating revenue to calculate net revenue.  The state‑level value‑added tax (ICMS), federal PIS and COFINS taxes, and the research and development and energy efficiency programs (regulatory charges) are calculated based on gross operating revenue, while other regulatory charges vary depending on the regulatory effect reflected in our tariffs.  These deductions represented 24.3% of our gross operating revenue in the year ended December 31, 2013 and 29.9% in the year ended December 31, 2012.  Compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, these deductions decreased 26.0% (or R$1,652 million) to R$4,706 million in 2013, mainly due to:  (i) a reduction of 12.6% (or R$401 million) in ICMS, as a result of the drop of 13.3% in the our billed supply; (ii) a reduction of 8.8% (or R$147 million) in PIS and COFINS, basically due to the reduction in our gross operating revenues (the calculation base for these taxes); and (iii) by the net effect of the decrease of 73.2% (or R$1,105 million) in regulatory charges, as a result of changes in ANEEL regulations in Law 12,783 of 2013.  See explanatory note 26 to our audited financial statements.

Deductions from operating revenues

We deduct certain taxeselectricity‑related services, and regulatory charges from our gross operating revenues to calculate our net revenues.  One of these taxes is the value-added tax, or ICMS, levied by Brazilian states, and PIS/COFINS taxes levied by the Brazilian federal government.  These deductions amounted to 32.3% of our gross operating revenues in 2011 and 31.5% in 2010.  Most of these taxes and charges are based on the amount of gross operating revenues, while others vary depending on regulatory effects reflected in our tariffs.  See note 26 to our consolidated financial statements.

Sales by segment

Distribution 

Net operating revenues from our distribution segment in 2011 amounted to R$11,066 million, an increase of 5.5% compared to R$10,485 million in 2010.  Excluding revenues relating to the construction of concession infrastructure (which was totally offset by construction costs), net operating revenues would be R$9,936 million, a 5.2%, or R$495 million, increase.  This increase was mainly due to (i) tariff adjustments, which resulted in an average increase of 6.4% of billed revenues and a 3.1% increase in the transactions volume sold (R$858 million), and (ii) a 17.6% increase, or R$200 million, in TUSD collections from Free Consumers, which were partially offset by (i) an increase of R$295 million in taxes on gross operating revenues, and (ii) an increase of R$197 million in the CCC and CDE contributions.

Generation 

Net operating revenues from our generation segment in 2011 amounted to R$1,621 million, an increase of 36.3% (R$432 million) compared to R$1,189 million in 2010.  This increase was mainly due to the commencement of commercial operations of Foz do Chapecó hydroelectric power plant in October 2010 and Termonordeste and Termoparaíba thermoelectric power plants in December 2010 and January 2011, respectively, and the consolidation of CPFL Energias Renováveis in August 2011.Total.

Commercialization and Services

Net operating revenues from our commercialization and services segment in 2011 amounted to R$1,706 million, a decrease of 4.1% compared to R$1,779 million in 2010.  The decrease was mainly due to the 13.3% decrease in the volume sold, which was partially offset by the 11.9% increase in average prices.

Cost of Electric Energy

Electricity purchased for resale.  resaleOur.  Compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, our costs to purchase electricity wereenergy for resale increased 11.0% (or R$4,907739 million) in the year ended December 31, 2013, to R$7,469 million in 2011 (50.5%(60.9% of our total operating costs and operating expenses).  The cost was 2.8% (R$143 million) lower than in 2010, primarily due to a 2.9% decrease in the volume of electricity we purchased once Foz do Chapecó and the EPASA plants commenced operations in October 2010 and December 2010, respectively.

The cost of electricity purchased from Itaipu by our distribution companies was 3.6% (R$37 million) lower in 2011 as compared with 2010, due to the stability of the amount purchased and a reduction of prices.  The average price for electricity purchased from Itaipu, which represented 21.3% of the total volume we purchased in 2011, was on average 3.8% lower in 2011 than in 2010, mainly due to the 5.0% decrease in the US dollar average exchange rate in 2011.

Costs to purchase electricity from other generation facilities were 2.6% (R$119 million) lower in 2011 as compared to 2010 due to a 1.1% increase in the average prices, which was offset by a 3.7% decrease in the volume of electricity sold at these facilities.

Net operating revenues from our generation from renewable sources segment for the year ended December 31, 2012 amounted to R$818 million.  For the five‑month period from August 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011, the net operating revenues for this segment amounted to R$172 million.  As described above, the net operating revenues data derived from our financial statements are not comparable during these periods because our results for 2011 only consolidate the results of CPFL Renováveis for five months and are not directly comparable with our results for 2012, which consolidate the results of CPFL Renováveis for a 12-month period.

Commercialization

Net operating revenues from our commercialization segment for the year ended December 31, 2012 amounted to R$1,886 million, an increase of 20.1% (or R$316 million) compared to R$1,570 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.  The increase was mainly due to the favorable impact of TUSD revenues from our Free Consumers7.8% increase in the volume sold and tariff adjustments.the 11.9% increase in average prices during this period.

Deductions from operating revenuesServices

We deduct certain taxes and regulatory charges from our gross operating revenues to calculate our net revenues.  One of these taxes is the value-added tax, or ICMS, levied by Brazilian states, and PIS/COFINS taxes levied by the Brazilian federal government.  These deductions amounted to 31.5% of our gross operating revenues in 2010 and 31.1% in 2009.  Most of these taxes and charges are based on the amount of gross operating revenues, while others vary depending on regulatory effects reflected in our tariffs.  See note 27 to our consolidated financial statements.

The main purpose of these financings will be to:  (i) finance the investments of our distribution companies; and (ii) invest in our renewables energy generation segment.

In 2014 and 2015 we expect to continue to take advantage of the financing opportunities offered by the market through issuing debentures and debt for working capital both internally and externally, and those offered by the government through lines of financing provided by BNDES, to expand and modernize the electric system, to undertake new investments in the generation segment and to be prepared for possible consolidation in the sector.

Moreover, fundraising seeks to maintain the liquidity of the group and a good debt profile through extending the average maturity of the debt and reducing its cost.

Uses of funds

Our cash flow used for investing activities was R$1,695 million in the year ended December 31, 2013 compared with R$3,361 million in the year ended December 31, 2012.  This decrease of R$1,666 million primarily reflects:  (i) a reduction of R$145 million in purchases of property, plant and equipment mainly by lower investments in power generation from renewable sources, anda reduction of R$581 millionin intangibles mainly from lower investments in improving and expanding distribution; and (ii) a decrease of R$879 million related to the acquisitions of the Atlântica Complex, Bons Ventos Wind Farm and the Ester Plant (SPE Lacenas) in 2012.

Our cash flow used for investing activities was R$3,361 million in the year ended December 31, 2012 compared with R$2,351 million in the year ended December 31, 2011.  This increase of R$1,010 million primarily reflects:  (i) an increase of R$269 million related to the acquisitions of Santa Luzia and Jantus in 2011, and the acquisitions of the Atlântica Complex, Bons Ventos Wind Farm and Ester Plant (SPE Lacenas) in 2012, net of cash acquired; and (ii) an increase of R$694  million in purchases of property and equipment, primarily by investment in power generation from renewable sources, and in intangibles primarily by investment in distribution infrastructure.

Funding Requirements and Contractual Commitments

Our capital requirements are primarily for the following purposes:

·We make capital expenditures to continue improving and expanding our distribution system and to complete our renewable generation projects.  See “—Capital Expenditures” bellow for a discussion of our historical and planned capital expenditures;

·Repayment or refinancing maturing debt.  At December 31, 2013 we had outstanding debt maturing during the following 12 months aggregating R$1,837 million; and

·Dividends on a semiannual basis.  We paid R$816 million in 2013 and R$1,394 million in 2012.  See “Item 10.  Additional Information—Interest Attributable to Shareholders’ Equity”.

In the second half of 2011, CPFL Energia began a pre‑funding strategy and paid off some of the debt that was due in 2012 earlier.  We continued to employ this strategy during 2013 in relation to debt due in 2014.  With this strategy, we reduced the nominal cost of our indebtedness in approximately 0.5% to 8.4% per year, with an average indebtedness term of 4.14 years. 

Capital ExpendituresSources of Funds

Our principal capital expendituresmain sources of funds derive from our operating cash generation and financings.

Cash Flow

For ease of reference, lists of items and amounts explaining any increases or decreases in the past several years have beendiscussion below are listed in the same order that such line items appear in our applicable financial statements. 

Our net cash provided by operating activities was R$2,518 million in the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to R$1,989 million in the year ended December 31, 2012. The increase of R$528 million primarily reflected: (i) an increase of R$282 million of net income adjusted for the maintenancereconciliation of net cash; (ii) a decrease of R$577 million in operating assets (which represents an increase in the cash provided by operating activities) basically due to a reduction of R$691 million in accounts receivables from consumers, concessionaries and upgradinglicensees (reflecting the decline in our gross operating revenue, comparing 2013 to 2012), a reduction in escrow deposits and a reduction in dividends and interest on equity received, partially offset by an increase related to resources provided by the CDE Account in the amount of R$121 million; and (iii) a decrease of R$312 million in cash as result of a reduction in operating liabilities mainly due to a reduction of R$369 million in suppliers, in regulatory charges and in reserve for tax, civil and labor risks paid, and partially offset by an increase of R$63 million for other taxes and social contribution expenses, advances from Eletrobrás (resources provided by the CDE Account) and other operating liabilities, and (iv) an increase of R$19 million, which represents the net effect of payment of interest, income tax and social contribution. 

Our net cash provided by operating activities was R$1,989 million in the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to R$2,263 million in the year ended December 31, 2011. The reduction of R$274 million primarily reflected: (i) an increase of R$120 million of net income adjusted for the reconciliation of net cash, which is primarily related to depreciation and amortization, allowance for doubtful accounts, the gain in pension plan costs and losses on the write‑off of noncurrent assets; (ii) a reduction of R$162 million in cash as a result of a reduction in operating liabilities, primarily due to taxes and contributions; and (iii) an increase of R$188 million in operating assets (which represents a decrease in the cash provided by operating activities) mainly in accounts receivables from consumers, concessionaires and licensees in the amount of R$430 million, basically due to the increase in sales (as measured by monthly billing December 2012 compared with December 2011), and offset substantially by a reduction of R$152 million of escrow deposits and R$75 million in recoverable taxes (which represents a decrease in the cash provided by operating activities).

Uses of funds

Our cash flow used for investing activities was R$2,9441,695 million in 2012 and approximatelythe year ended December 31, 2013 compared with R$2,3703,361 million in 2013.  Of total budgeted capital expenditures over this period,the year ended December 31, 2012.  This decrease of R$2,3091,666 million are expected to be invested in our distribution segment andprimarily reflects:  (i) a reduction of R$2,898145 million in ourpurchases of property, plant and equipment mainly by lower investments in power generation segment.  Partfrom renewable sources, anda reduction of these expenditures, particularly R$581 millionin generation projects, is already contractually committed.  See “—Liquidityintangibles mainly from lower investments in improving and Capital Resources—Funding Requirementsexpanding distribution; and Contractual Commitments.” Planned capital expenditures for development(ii) a decrease of our generation capacity,R$879 million related to the acquisitions of the Atlântica Complex, Bons Ventos Wind Farm and the Ester Plant (SPE Lacenas) in 2012.

Our cash flow used for investing activities was R$3,361 million in the year ended December 31, 2012 compared with R$2,351 million in the year ended December 31, 2011.  This increase of R$1,010 million primarily reflects:  (i) an increase of R$269 million related financing arrangements, are discussedto the acquisitions of Santa Luzia and Jantus in more detail under “Item 4. Information on2011, and the Company—Generationacquisitions of Electricity.”

Funding Requirements and Contractual Commitments

Our capital requirements are primarily for the following purposes:

·        We make capital expenditures to continue improving and expanding our distribution system and to complete our renewable generation projects.  See “—Capital Expenditures” abovebellow for a discussion of our historical and planned capital expenditures;

·        Repayment or refinancing maturing debt.  At December 31, 20112013 we had outstanding debt maturing during the following 12 months aggregating R$1,428 million (excluding derivatives1,837 million; and interest);

·        Dividends on a semiannual basis.  We paid R$1,230816 million in 20112013 and R$1,4241,394 million in 2010.2012.  See “Item 10.  Additional Information—Interest Attributable to Shareholders’ Equity;” andEquity”.

·Funding for acquisitions.  In the second half of 2011, CPFL Energia began a pre‑funding strategy and paid off some of the debt that was due in 2012 earlier.  We continued to employ this strategy during 2013 in relation to debt due in 2014.  With this strategy, we paid R$863 million forreduced the acquisition of Jantus and Santa Luzia.

On December 31, 2011, our working capital reflected a superavit (excess of current assets over current liabilities) of R$864 million.  The main cause of this superavit was the refinancingnominal cost of our current debtindebtedness in 2010 and the higher levelapproximately 0.5% to 8.4% per year, with an average indebtedness term of cash and cash equivalents in 2011.4.14 years. 

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations determined in accordance with IFRS as of December 31, 2011.  The table does not include accounts payable reported on our balance sheet.

(1)           Not including interest payments on debt or payments under swap agreements.  For the year ended December 31, 2012, we expect that the interest payments on debt and debentures will amount to R$218 million and we do not expect payments under swap agreements.  This is the contractual amount and is presented net of Fair Value adjustments and borrowing costs.  We expect to pay approximately R$1,039 million in interest payments in 2012.  Interest payments on debt for years following 2012 have not been estimated.  We are not able to determine such future interest payments because we cannot accurately predict future interest rates, our future cash generation, or future business decisions that could significantly affect our debt levels and consequently this estimate.  For an understanding of the impact of a change in interest rates applicable to our long‑term debt obligations, see “Item 11. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk—Risk of Index Variation.” For additional information on the terms of our outstanding debt, see “—Terms of Outstanding Debt.”

Uses of funds

Our cash flow used for investing activities was R$1,695 million in the year ended December 31, 2013 compared with R$3,361 million in the year ended December 31, 2012.  This decrease of R$1,666 million primarily reflects:  (i) a reduction of R$145 million in purchases of property, plant and equipment mainly by lower investments in power generation from renewable sources, anda reduction of R$581 millionin intangibles mainly from lower investments in improving and expanding distribution; and (ii) a decrease of R$879 million related to the acquisitions of the Atlântica Complex, Bons Ventos Wind Farm and the Ester Plant (SPE Lacenas) in 2012.

Our cash flow used for investing activities was R$3,361 million in the year ended December 31, 2012 compared with R$2,351 million in the year ended December 31, 2011.  This increase of R$1,010 million primarily reflects:  (i) an increase of R$269 million related to the acquisitions of Santa Luzia and Jantus in 2011, and the acquisitions of the Atlântica Complex, Bons Ventos Wind Farm and Ester Plant (SPE Lacenas) in 2012, net of cash acquired; and (ii) an increase of R$694  million in purchases of property and equipment, primarily by investment in power generation from renewable sources, and in intangibles primarily by investment in distribution infrastructure.

Funding Requirements and Contractual Commitments

Our capital requirements are primarily for the following purposes:

·We make capital expenditures to continue improving and expanding our distribution system and to complete our renewable generation projects.  See “—Capital Expenditures” bellow for a discussion of our historical and planned capital expenditures;

·Repayment or refinancing maturing debt.  At December 31, 2013 we had outstanding debt maturing during the following 12 months aggregating R$1,837 million; and

·Dividends on a semiannual basis.  We paid R$816 million in 2013 and R$1,394 million in 2012.  See “Item 10.  Additional Information—Interest Attributable to Shareholders’ Equity”.

In the second half of 2011, CPFL Energia began a pre‑funding strategy and paid off some of the debt that was due in 2012 earlier.  We continued to employ this strategy during 2013 in relation to debt due in 2014.  With this strategy, we reduced the nominal cost of our indebtedness in approximately 0.5% to 8.4% per year, with an average indebtedness term of 4.14 years. 

Capital Expenditures

Our principal capital expenditures in the past several years have been for the maintenance and upgrading of our Distribution Networks and for our generation projects.  The following table sets forth our capital expenditures for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011:

Research and Development and Electricity Efficiency Programs

In accordance with applicable Brazilian law, since June 2000, companies holding concessions, permissions and authorizations for distribution, generation and transmission of electricity have been required to dedicate a minimum of 1.0% of their net operating revenue each year to research and development and electricity efficiency programs.  Small hydroelectric power plantsHydroelectric Power Plants and wind, sunsolar and biomass energy projects are not subject to this requirement.  Beginning in April 2007, our distribution concessionaires dedicated 0.5% of their net operating revenue to research and development and 0.5% to electricity efficiency programs, while our generation concessionaries dedicated 1.0% of their net operating revenue to research and development.

Table of Contents

 

Our electricity efficiency program is designed to foster the efficient use of electricity by our consumers, to reduce technical and commercial losses and offer products and services that improve satisfaction and loyalty and enhance our corporate image.  Our research and development programs utilize technological research to develop products, which may be used internally, as well as sold to the public.  We carry out certain of these programs through strategic partnerships with national universities and research centers, and the vast majority of our resources are dedicated to innovation and development in new technologies applicable to our business.

Our disbursements on research and development projects in 2009, 2010the years ended December 31, 2011, 2012 and 20112013 totaled R$156158 million, R$179159 million and R$213132 million, respectively.

Our disbursement on research and development would have been R$162 million and R$165 million for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2012, respectively.  These numbers have been adjusted due to a change in accounting practices.  For more information, please see note 2.8 to our audited financial statements.

Off-BalanceOff‑Balance Sheet Arrangements

None. As of December 31, 2013, we have no off‑balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Trend Information

We intend to invest in innovation and technology to increaseimprove the quality of our operationsservices and our operational efficiency, which are our perennial goals.  The Tauron Program – focused on smart metering for high and medium voltage consumers and on the excellence of workforce management by the use of tablets and new technologies we plan to use in our Tauron projects maysoftware – will increase our operational efficiency in the near future.  We have already deployed 13,000 smart meters in the field and two of our distribution companies are already operating under the new data dispatch system.  We expect to finish the project implementation by the end of 2014.

Additionally, we seek to promote growth in each of our business segments:  distribution, conventional generation sources, renewable generation sources, and commercialization and services.

We intend to continue to expand our distributionDistribution segment, either through market growth or through the acquisition of energy distribution companies (if there are companies in the market with characteristics and at a price that will be beneficial to us).

Market growth is heavily influenced by economic growth, in particular, an increase in employment, income, retail sector sales and industrial production.  In addition, the market is also influenced by the entry of new clients and changes in weather and rainfall volume.

The market shows positive signs of growth for 2012.  According to projections from the FOCUS report, published onMarch 16, 2012on January 13, 2014 by the Brazilian Central Bank, GDP is expected to grow 3.3%1.99% in 20122014 and 4.2%2.48% in 2013, which will impact2015.  Although these are moderate growth rates, there are positive signs for energy consumption.consumption in the next years.  This growth shouldwill be sustained not only by individualresidential and commercial economic growth (the increase in salaries, consumer purchasing power and credit availability), but alsosegments, favored by the recoverylow unemployment rate, the improving quality of the Brazilian power industry, which hadworkforce, the maintenance of social programs (e.g.Minha CasaMinha Vida andMinha Casa Melhor) and large events, like the World Cup (in 2014) and the Olympic Games (in 2016).  Industrial performance, on the other hand, will remain in a modest growth in 2011 asslower pace of growth; despite the global economic recovery, the exchange rate depreciation and their consequent positive effects on exports, inflation is a result of appreciated exchangethreat that may lead to higher interest rates and high interest rates.lower investments.  Also, apossible reduction in the availability of BNDES loans and the inadequate infrastructure may restrain economic growth.

In the commercialization and services segment, our main objective is to maintain our leading position, in terms of market share, in order to guarantee our above-averageabove‑average profitability.  In addition, we expect to expand our portfolio of services, retain the loyalty of our customers and expand our services to new markets.

Since our founding, we have employed a growth strategy based on operational excellence through innovation and technology, synergy, financial discipline and the accumulation of value.  We plan to continue this in the future in order to consolidate our strong position in the energy industry.

Use of Estimates in Certain Accounting Policies

In preparing our financial statements, we make estimates concerning a variety of matters.  Some of these matters are highly uncertain, and our estimates involve judgments we make based on the information available to us.  In the discussion below, we have identified several other matters that would materially affect our financial presentation if either (i) we used different estimates that we could reasonably have used or (ii) in the future we change our estimates in response to changes that are reasonably likely to occur.

The discussion addresses only those estimates that we consider most important based on the degree of uncertainty and the likelihood of a material impact if we used a different estimate.  There are many other areas in which we use estimates about uncertain matters, but the reasonably likely effect of changed or different estimates is not material to our financial presentation.  Please see the notes to our audited consolidated financial statements included herein for a more detailed discussion of the application of these and other accounting policies.

Impairment of Long-livedLong‑lived Assets

Long-livedLong‑lived assets, which include property, plant and equipment, purchased intangible assets and investments, comprise a significant amount of our total assets and are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  We carry balances on our balance sheet that are based on historical costs net of accumulated depreciation and amortization.  We are required under IFRS to periodically evaluate whether these assets are impaired, that is, whether their future capacity to generate cash does not justify maintaining them at their carrying values.  The methods used to assess impairment include tests based on the asset'sasset’s value in use.  In such cases, the assets (e.g. goodwill and intangible assets of concession) are segregated and grouped together at the lowest level that generates identifiable cash flows (the "cash“cash generating unit"unit”, or CGU).  If they are impaired, we are required to recognize a loss by writing off part of their value to expense in the current period.  The analysis we perform requires that we estimate the future cash flows attributable to these assets, and these estimates require us to make a variety of judgments about our future operations, including judgments concerning market growth and other macroeconomic factors as well as the demand for electricity.  Changes in these judgments could require us to recognize impairment losses in future periods.  Our evaluations in 2011, 20102013, 2012 and 20092011 did not result in any significant impairment of our property, plant and equipment or intangible assets and investments.

Table of Contents

Impairment of Financial Assets

A financial asset not measured at fair value through profit or loss is reassessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired.  Impairment can occur after the initial recognition of the asset and have a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows.

The Company and its subsidiaries consider evidence of impairment of receivables and held‑to‑maturity investment securities for both specific asset and at a collective level for all significant securities.  Receivables and held‑to‑maturity investment securities that are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment by grouping together the securities with similar risk characteristics.

In assessing collective impairment the Company uses historical trends of the probability of default, timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, adjusted for Management's judgment as to whether the assumptions and current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual losses are likely to be higher or lower than suggested by historic trends.

An impairment loss of a financial asset is recognized as follows:

·Amortized cost:  as the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate.  Losses are recognized in profit or loss and shown in an allowance account against receivables.  Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognized through the unwinding of the discount.  When a subsequent event indicates that the amount of impairment loss has decreased, this reduction is reversed to credit through profit or loss.

·Available‑for‑sale:  as the difference between the acquisition cost, net of any principal repayment and amortization of the principal, and the current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognized in profit or loss.  Losses are recognized in profit or loss.

In the case of financial assets registered at amortized cost and/or debt instruments classified as available‑for‑sale, if an increase (gain) is identified in periods subsequent to recognition of the loss, the impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.  However, any subsequent recovery in the fair value of an impaired available‑for‑sale security is recognized in other comprehensive income.

Pension Liabilities

We sponsor pension plans and disability and death benefit plans covering substantially all of our employees.  The determination of the amount of our obligations for pension benefits depends on certain actuarial assumptions,, including discount rate, inflation, etc.  For further information about the actuarial assumptions see note 18  1to our audited consolidated financial statements.  Moreover, the IAS 19 was revised and has been applied as from January 1, 2013 (and for comparative purposes, the balances at December 31 and January 1, 2012 and profit or loss from 2012 and 2011 were restated).

Deferred Tax Assets and Liabilities

We account for income taxes in accordance with IFRS, which requires an asset and liability approach to recording current and deferred taxes.  Accordingly, the effects of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and the amounts recognized in our financial statements have been treated as temporary differences for the purpose of recording deferred income tax.

We regularly review our deferred tax assets for recoverability.  If  evidences are not enough to prove that it is more likely than not that the Companywe will generate sufficient future taxable income, or if there is a material change in the actual effective tax rates or time period within which the underlying temporary differences become taxable ordeductible, we could be required to establish a valuation allowance against all or a significant portion of our deferred tax assets resulting in a substantial increase in our effective tax rate and a material adverse impact on our operating results.

Reserves Provisionfor ContingenciesTax, Civil and Labor Risks

We and our subsidiaries are party to certain legal proceedings in Brazil arising in the normal course of business regarding tax, labor, civil and other issues.matters.

Accruals for contingenciesprovisionfor tax, civil and labor risks are estimated based on historical experience, the nature of the claims, and the current status of the claims.  The evaluation of these contingenciesrisks is performed by various specialists, inside and outside of the company.  Accounting for contingenciesprovision for tax, civil and labor risks requires significant judgment by managementManagement concerning the estimated probabilities and ranges of exposure to potential liability.  Management’s assessment of our exposure to contingenciesprovision for tax, civil and labor risks could change as new developments occur or more information becomes available.  The outcome of the contingenciesrisks could vary significantly and could materially impact our consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

Financial instruments

Financial instruments can be measured at fair values or at recognized costs, depending on certain factors.  Those measured at fair value were recognized based on quoted prices in an active market, or assessed using pricing models, applied individually for each transaction, taking into consideration the future payment flows, based on the conditions contracted, discounted to present value at market interest rate curves, based on information obtained from the BM&FBOVESPA and the National Association of Financial and Capital Market Institutions (Associação NacionalBrasileira das Instituições do Mercado FinanceiroEntidades dos Mercados Financeiros e de Capitais – ANDIMA) websites, when available.  Accordingly, the market value of a security corresponds to its maturity value (redemption value) marked to present value by the discount factor (relating to the maturity date of the security) obtained from the market interest graph in Brazilianreais.  

Financial assets classified as available-for-saleavailable‑for‑sale refer to the right to compensation to be paid by the Federal GovernmentBrazilian government on reversion of the assets of the distribution concessionaires (financial asset of concession).  The methodology adopted for marking these assets to market is based on the tariff review process for distributors.  This review, conducted every four or five years according to the concessionaire, consists of revaluation at market price of the distribution infrastructure.  This valuation basis is used for pricing the tariff, which is increased annually up to the next tariff review, based on the parameter of the main inflation indexes.

Although the Federal Government has not yetLaw No. 12,783/13 defined the methodology and criteria for valuation of the compensation on reversion of the assets our management believes that it will be based at least on the tariff pricing model.Regulatory Asset Base.  Accordingly, at the time of the tariff review, each concessionaire adjusts the position of the financial asset base for compensation at the amounts ratified by the regulatory authority and uses the IGP-M as best estimate for adjusting the original base to the fair value at subsequent dates, in conformity with the tariff review process.

However, because the methodology and criteria for valuation of the compensation are still uncertain, we have prepared an analysis of sensitivity of our results toon reversion is prescribed through a potential change in our assumption regarding the adoption of the tariff pricing model, which includes adjustment based on the IGP-M. The sensitivity analysis describes the impact of payment of financial assets based on its historical cost. The sensitivity analysis is described in note 33.e.3 to our financial statements included in this annual report.valuation process carried out by ANEEL.

Depreciation and Amortization of Intangible Assets

We account for depreciation using the straight-linestraight‑line method, at annual rates based on the estimated useful life of assets, as established by ANEEL, in accordance with practices adopted in Brazil.  Amortization of intangible assets varies according to the way they are acquired:

·        Intangible assets acquired in a business combination:  We accountcombination.  The portion arising from business combinations that corresponds to the right to operate the concession is stated as an intangible asset.  Such amounts are amortized over the remaining term of the concessions, on a straight‑line basis or based on the net income curves projected for the amortization of the premium corresponding to the concession rights using the concessionaire’s projected net profit curve for the remaining concession term.concessionaires, as applicable.

Table of Contents

·        Investments in infrastructure (application of IFRIC 12 – Service Concession Arrangements):.  Since the concession term is contractually defined, intangible assets acquired as investment in infrastructure have a pre‑determined useful life.  We account for the amortization of these assets using a curve that reflects the consumption standard as compared to the expected profits.

·        Public utilities:utilities.  We account for the amortization of intangible assets relating to our use of a public asset using the straight-linestraight‑line method for the remaining term of the concession.

PartSome of our employees are members of unions, with which we have collective bargaining agreements.  We renegotiate these agreements annually with the 1716 principal unions that represent our various employee groups.  Salary increases are generally provided for on an annual basis.  We believe that we have good relationships with these unions, as evidenced by the fact that we have not had any labor strikes during the last 2325 years that materially affected our operations.

We provide a number of benefits to our employees.  The most significant is the sponsorship of Fundação CESP, in partnership with ten other electrical companies, which supplements the Brazilian government retirement and health benefits available to the employees of our subsidiaries CPFL Paulista, CPFL Piratininga, CPFL Geração and CPFL Brasil.

In accordance with Brazilian law and our compensation policy, our employees are eligible for our profit sharing program.  This amount is set in the collective bargaining agreements of each company, which are adjusted annually.  In 2011,2013, we reserved R$4741 million (R$4237 million of which are booked in current liabilities) for our employee profit sharing program.

In addition, part of each employee’s compensation is linked to performance goals.  Employees are evaluated based on criteria such as quality of work product, adherence to safety protocols and productivity.  Our performance evaluation system is designed to evaluate required skill as well, and enables us to evaluate the development of our employees.

Legal Proceedings

CPFL Paulista and CPFL Piratininga are parties to numerous lawsuits brought by industrial consumers alleging that certain tariff increases in the past were illegal in view of then prevailingthen-prevailing economic regulations that had established a price freeze that included electricity tariffs.  The aggregate potential liability was approximately R$103.767.5 million as of December 31, 2011.2013.  Superior courts have already decided many of these lawsuits partially against us, and as a result, we have provisioned the aggregate potential liability (approximately R$7.045 million) in respect of these suits.

CPFL Paulista is a defendant in a civil public action filed by the Campinas Consumer Protection Office (Promotoria de Defesa do Consumidor).  The purpose of this civil public action is to suspend the effects of the tariff readjustment authorized by ANEEL for the year ended December 31, 2009.  CPFL Paulista obtained a preliminary suspension of the effects.  The civil public action still awaits final decision and, until then, the effects from the tariff readjustment authorized by ANEEL remain in force.  We believe that the risk of loss is remote. possible and therefore, no provision was recorded.

We are also subject to legal proceedings relating to the authorization of certain of our hydroelectric plants,Hydroelectric Power Plants, including a class action proposed by the federal public attorney’s office of the Municipality of Caxias do Sul challenging the validity of the environmental licensing of the Rio das Antas Hydroelectric Complex,hydroelectric complex, and requesting injunctive relief against the construction of these plants.  The federal public attorney’s injunction request was denied in the lower courts and the district attorney moved against the denial, requesting a new injunction from the higher courts.  The higher courts denied the injunction relief.  The claim was deemed groundless by the lower courts.groundless.  An appeal from the federal public attorney’s office still awaits final decision.decision from the higher courts.  We believe that the possibility of a loss is remote.

CPFL Geração received a tax infraction action concerning PIS and COFINS fiscal debts.  There is some divergence in the understanding of legislation, which resulted in a difference between the amount paid by CPFL Geração and the amount the tax authorities claim we owe.  An appeal still awaits decision.  We believe that the possibility of loss is possible and the aggregate amount of the claim was of approximately R$184 million as of December 31, 2013.

RGE is the plaintiff in a lawsuit challenging Corporate Income Tax (IRPJ) and Social Contribution (CSLL) levied in relation to events that occurred in the period from 1999 to 2003, due to:  (i) excess amortization of goodwill in the 10‑year amortization period set forth in Law 9,532/97; (ii) excess depreciation of assets; and (iii) monetary adjustment applied on items of Parcel A, known as “CVA”, which were excluded from the calculation basis of corporate income tax and social contribution.  A court decision is still pending.  We believe that the risk of an unfavorable judgment with respect to this claim is possible, and the aggregate amount of our liability was approximately R$424 million as of December 31, 2013.

CPFL Santa Cruz, CPFL Geração and RGE also received tax infraction actions concerning excess amortization of goodwill in IRPJ and CSLL, in the amounts of R$40 million, R$175 million and R$184 million as of December 31, 2013, respectively.  An appeal is still awaiting decision.  We believe that the possibility of loss is possible.

We establish reserves in our balance sheetssheet provisions relating to potential losses from litigation based on estimates of such losses.  For this purpose, we classify such losses as remote, possible or probable.  IFRS practices and Brazilian law require us to establish reservesprovisions in connection with probable losses, and therefore, it is therefore our policy to establish reservesprovisions only in connection with those claims.  As of December 31, 2011,2013, our reservesprovisions for contingencies were approximately R$338 million.468 million, reflecting our ongoing contingency monitoring and risk control.  Our managementManagement believes that these proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, either individually or in the aggregate.  See note 21 2to our audited consolidated financial statements for more information on the status of our litigation.

Another important change relates to IAS 19, as revised in 2011.  The revisions change the accounting methodology for defined benefit plans and termination benefits.  The new methodology requires recognition of any changes in defined benefit obligations and the fair value of plan assets, and thus eliminates the corridor approach permitted under the previous version of IAS 19.  The elimination of the corridor approach accelerates recognition of past service costs.  All actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income so that the net pension plan asset or liability reflects the full amount of the plan deficit or surplus.  Additionally, instead of interest cost and expected returns on plan assets used in the previous version of IAS 19, we now record an amount for “net interest” in accordance with the revisions of IAS 19, as revised in 2011.  According to the revisions, net interest is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net amount of the defined benefit liability or asset.  The IAS 19 revisions also introduced certain changes in presentation of the defined benefit cost, including more extensive disclosures, such as the sensitivity to significant actuarial assumptions.  For further information on the impact of these changes, please see note 2.8 to our consolidated financial statements.

These two new standards are effective from January 1, 2013. As the adoption of these accounting standards constitutes a change in accounting policies, the Company is retrospectively applying these standards in accordance with IAS 8 – Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, and therefore the Company adjusted the Balance Sheets as of January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012, and the Statements of Income, of Comprehensive Income, of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity and Cash Flows for the years ended on December 31, 2012 and 2011 for comparison purposes.

ITEM 9.                       The Offer and Listing

Trading Markets

Our common shares are listed on the BM&FBOVESPA, and our ADSs are listed on the New York Stock Exchange.  Each ADS represents two shares.  The ADSs commenced trading on the NYSE on September 29, 2004.  As of December 31, 2011,2013, the ADSs represented 8.1%6.4% of our shares and 26.4%21.1% of our current global public float.

On February 23, 2011, our Board of Directors:  (i) approved a change in the ratio of our ADSs, so that each ADS would represent two common shares of CPFL EnergiaEnergia; and (ii) submitted a proposal for a simultaneous reverse stock split and forward stock split of our common shares to our shareholders.  Our shareholders approved this proposal on our shareholders’ meeting of April 28, 2011.  Through the reverse stock split, 10 of our common shares became one common share and, simultaneously, through the forward stock split, each common share resulting from the reverse stock split became 20 common shares.

89


Table of Contents

The purpose of the change in the ADS ratio, as well as the reverse and forward stock splits, is to (a)to:  (i) adjust the share base, and consequently decrease the administrative and operational costs of CPFL Energia; (b)(ii) improve the efficiency of our systems for recording, controlling and disclosing information to shareholders; (c)(iii) adjust the price of our common shares and ADSs, allowing access to our stock by new investors; and (d)(iv) increase the liquidity of our shares and ADSs through a decrease in their individual value.

The shares resulting from the reverse and forward stock splits were credited on July 4, 2011, based on our shareholding position on June 28, 2011.  The new ADSs resulting from the change of our ADSs’ ratio were credited on July 5, 2011, based on our ADS holding position on July 1, 2011, resulting in the issuance of two additional ADSs for each existing ADS on July 1, 2011.

Corporate Governance Practices

In 2000, the BM&FBOVESPA introduced three special listing segments, known as Level 1, Level 2 and theNovo Mercado, aiming at fostering a secondary market for securities issued by Brazilian companies with securities listed on the BM&FBOVESPA, by prompting such companies to follow good practices of corporate governance.  The listing segments were designed for the trading of shares issued by companies voluntarily undertaking to abide by corporate governance practices and disclosure requirements in addition to those already imposed by Brazilian law.  These rules generally increase shareholders’ rights and enhance the quality of information provided to shareholders and stakeholders.  In order to maintain high standards of corporate governance, we have signed an agreement with the BM&FBOVESPA to list our securities on theNovo Mercado.  

90


Table of Contents

Our corporate governance guidelines apply to us and all of our subsidiaries and affiliated companies.  They aim at promoting interaction among our shareholders, Board of Directors, Fiscal Council and Board of Executive Officers.  Our managers have committed to focus on:

1.Disclosure (prompt and voluntary communication with market participants and our shareholders with respect to factors that guide our business and lead to the creation of value);

2.Fairness (fair treatment to our shareholders, our customers, suppliers, employees, creditors, government bodies, regulatory agencies, etc.);

3.Accountability (accountability of our managementManagement to our shareholders, and responsibility for their acts while in office); and

4.Compliance (commitment to the sustainability and continuity of our business in the long run, compliance with the legislation in force and observance of social and environmental matters).

103


Table of Contents

We implemented this model in 2003 and redesigned it in 2006 in order to adjust our corporate governance structure to the current making-businessmaking‑business scenario and decision-makingdecision‑making process.  In 2012 the Board of Directors approved the updating of Corporate Governance Guidelines, regarding their application to its Controlled and Affiliated Companies.  Furthermore, it was registered that the members of the Board of Directors’ Advisory Committees shall no longer receive compensation.

Our Board of Directors is our decision-makingdecision‑making body, responsible for determining our overall guidelines.  Our Board of Directors can request advice on strategic matters from three of our committees, such as executive remuneration, related party transactions, corporate risk management, follow-upfollow‑up on internal audits and business management processes.  Whenever necessary,ad hoc commissions are installed to advise the Board of Directors on specific issues, such as corporate governance, strategies, budget, corporate risk management, sustainability, purchase of energy, new operations and financial policies.policies, etc.

A revision of these rules was under discussion between the companies listed in each segment and the BM&FBOVESPA, and it was approved during the second half of 2010 to provide for a further enhancement of the special corporate governance and disclosure rules.  The revised rules entered in force and effect on May 10, 2011, including those related to theNovo Mercado segment.  The main changes to the rules in the segment that we are listed include, among others:  (i) prohibition to include dispositions that restrict or create obligations to the shareholders which vote favorably to a suppression or amendment of dispositions of the bylaws; (ii) prohibition of the same individual to hold the positions of president of the board of directors and chief executive officer (or equivalent position as the main executive of the company); and (iii) obligation of the board of directors to issue a justified opinion on any tender offers for the acquisition of the shares representative of the corporate capital of the company.  On December 19, 2011, we amended our bylaws to incorporate these rules, among other changes.  In 2013 we amended our bylaws to include the creation of a "Reserve for Adjustment of the Concession Financial Assets", with subsequent amendment to items “a” and “c” and addition of items “d” and “e” of paragraph 2, Article 27.

In accordance with Section 303A.11 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, we have posted a summary of significant differences between the NYSE corporate governance standards and our corporate governance practices on our website, athttp://www.cpfl.com.br/ir.

Allocation of Net Income and Distribution of Dividends

The discussion below summarizes the provisions of Brazilian law regarding the establishment of reserves by corporations and the distribution of dividends, including interest attributed to shareholders’ equity.

Mandatory Distribution

Brazilian Corporate Law generally requires that the bylaws of each Brazilian corporation specify a minimum percentage of the amounts available for distribution by such corporation for each fiscal year that must be distributed to shareholders as dividends, also known as the mandatory distribution.

The mandatory distribution is based on a percentage of adjusted net income, not lower than 25.0%, rather than a fixed monetary amount per share.  Under our bylaws, at least 25.0% of our adjusted net income, as calculated under Brazilian Accounting Principles and adjusted under Brazilian Corporate Law, for the preceding fiscal year must be distributed as a mandatory annual dividend.  Adjusted net income means the distributable amount after any deductions for statutory reserves and reserves for investment projects.

Brazilian Corporate Law permits the suspension of the mandatory distribution of dividends in any fiscal year in which the managementManagement bodies report to the shareholders’ meeting that the distribution would be inadvisable in view of the company’s financial condition.  The suspension is subject to approval by the shareholders meeting and review by members of the fiscal council.council, if it has been installed.  The law does not establish the circumstances in which payment of the mandatory dividend would be “inadvisable” based on the company’s financial condition.  In the case of publicly-heldpublicly‑held corporations, the board of directors must file a justification for such suspension with the CVM within five days of the relevant general meeting.  If the mandatory distribution is not paid, the unpaid amount must be attributed to a special reserve account.  If not absorbed by subsequent losses, those funds must be paid out as dividends as soon as the financial condition of the company permits.  Under Brazilian Corporate Law, the shareholders of a publicly-heldpublicly‑held company may also decide to distribute dividends in an amount lower than the mandatory distribution.

Payment of Dividends

We are required by Brazilian Corporate Law to hold an annual general shareholders’ meeting by no later than April 30 of each year, at which the shareholders have to decide on the payment of an annual dividend.  Additionally, interim dividends may be declared by our Board of Directors.  Pursuant to our charter, we are required to pay a mandatory annual dividend of at least 25.0% of our adjusted net income.  Any holder of record of shares at the time of a dividend declaration is entitled to receive dividends.  Dividends on shares held through a depositary are paid to the depositary for further distribution to the shareholders.  Under Brazilian Corporate Law, dividends are generally required to be paid to the holder of record on a dividend declaration date within 60 days following the date the dividend was declared, unless a shareholders’ resolution sets forth another date of payment, which, in either case, must occur prior to the end of the fiscal year in which such dividend was declared.  Pursuant to our bylaws, declared unclaimed dividends do not bear interest, are not monetarily adjusted and revert to us if unclaimed within three years after the date when we begin to pay such declared dividends.

In general, shareholders who are not residents of Brazil must register their equity investment with the Brazilian Central Bank to have dividends, sales proceeds or other amounts with respect to their shares eligible to be remitted outside of Brazil.  The common shares underlying the ADSs are held in Brazil by Banco Bradesco S.A.,as thecustodian for the depositary, that is the registered owner on the records of the registrar for our shares.  The current registrar (since January 1, 2011) is Banco do Brasil S.A.  The depositary registers the common shares underlying the ADSs with the Brazilian Central Bank and, therefore, is able to have dividends, sales proceeds or other amounts with respect to the common shares remitted outside Brazil.

92


Table of Contents

Payments of cash dividends and distributions, if any, are made inreaisto the custodian on behalf of the depositary, which then converts such proceeds into U.S. dollars for distribution to holders of ADSs.  In the event that the custodian is unable to convert immediately the Brazilian currency received as dividends into U.S. dollars, the amount of U.S. dollars payable to holders of ADSs may be adversely affected by depreciations of the Brazilian currency that occur before the dividends are converted.  Dividends paid to persons who are not Brazilian residents, including holders of ADSs, are not subject to Brazilian withholding tax, except for dividends declared based onprofits generated prior to December 31, 1995, which are subject to Brazilian withholding income tax at varying tax rates.  See “Taxation—Brazilian Tax Considerations.”Considerations”.

105


Table of Contents

Holders of ADSs have the benefit of the electronic registration obtained from the Brazilian Central Bank, which permits the depositary and the custodian to convert dividends and other distributions or sales proceeds with respect to the common shares represented by ADSs into foreign currency and remits the proceeds outside of Brazil.  In the event the holder exchanges the ADSs for common shares, the holder will be entitled to continue to rely on the depositary’s certificate of registration for five business days after the exchange.  Thereafter, in order to convert foreign currency and remit outside Brazil the sales proceeds or distributions with respect to the common shares, the holder must obtain a new certificate of registration in its own name that will permit the conversion and remittance of such payments through the foreign exchange market.

If the holder is not a duly qualified investor and does not obtain an electronic certificate of foreign capital registration, a special authorization from the Brazilian Central Bank must be obtained in order to remit from Brazil any payments with respect to the common shares through the foreign exchange market.  Without this special authorization, the holder may currently remit payments with respect to the common shares through the floating rate exchange market, although no assurance can be given that the floating rate exchange market will be accessible for these purposes in the future.

In addition, a holder who is not a duly qualified investor and who has not obtained an electronic certificate of foreign capital registration or a special authorization from the Brazilian Central Bank may remit these payments by international transfer of Brazilian currency pursuant to CMN Resolution No. 3,568, dated May 29, 2008, and Brazilian Central Bank Circular No. 3,280, dated March 9, 2005, as amended.  In order to effect the international transfer of Brazilian currency the holder must have a special non‑resident bank account in Brazil, through which the subsequent conversion of such Brazilian currency into U.S. dollars is effected.

Under current Brazilian legislation, the Brazilian government may impose temporary restrictions of foreign capital abroad in the event of a serious imbalance or an anticipated serious imbalance of Brazil’s balance of payments (see “Item 3.  Key Information—Risk Factors—Risks Relating to the ADSs and Our Common Shares”).

Interest Attributable to Shareholders’ Equity

Under Brazilian tax legislation, Brazilian companies are permitted to pay “interest” to holders of equity securities and treat such payments as an expense for Brazilian income tax purposes and for social contribution purposes.  Payment of such interest may be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors, subject to the approval of the shareholders at a general shareholders’ meeting.  In order to calculate this interest on shareholders’ equity, the TJLP is applied to shareholders’ equity for the applicable period.  The amount of any such notional “interest” payment to holders of equity securities is generally limited in respect of any particular year to the greater of:

·        50.0% of net income (after the deduction of the provisions for social contribution on net profits but before taking into account the provision for corporate income tax and the interest attributable to shareholders’ equity) for the period in respect of which the payment is made; or

·        50.0% of the sum of retained earnings and profit reserves as of the beginning of the year in respect of which such payment is made.

93


Table of Contents

For accounting purposes, although the interest charge must be reflected in the statement of operations to be tax‑deductible, the charge is reversed before calculating net income in the statutory financial statements and deducted from shareholders’ equity in a manner similar to a dividend.  Any payment of interest in respect of common shares (including the holders of the ADSs) is subject to Brazilian withholding tax at the rate of 15.0%, or 25.0% in the case of a shareholder domiciled in a tax haven.  See “Taxation—Brazilian Tax Considerations.”Considerations”.  If such payments are accounted for, at their net value, as part of any mandatory dividend, the tax is paid by the company on behalf of its shareholders, upon distribution of the interest.  If we distribute interest attributed to shareholder’s equity in any year, and that distribution is not accounted for as part of mandatory distribution, Brazilian income tax would be borne by the shareholders.  For IFRS accounting purposes, interest attributable to shareholders’ equity is reflected as a dividend payment.

106


Table of Contents

Under our bylaws, interest attributable to shareholders’ equity may be treated as a dividend for purposes of the mandatory dividend.

We will distribute R$1,506931 million to our shareholders from our 20112013 net income.  Of this amount, R$748363 million, or R$ 0,7770231760.377282126 per common share, was paid as an interim dividend on September 30, 2011October 1, 2013 and R$758568 million, or R$0.788205126 0.590062200per common share is expected to be paid as supplemental dividend in the first half of 2012.2014. 

Dividend Policy

We intend to declare and pay dividends and/or interest attributed to shareholders’ equity in amounts of at least 50.0% of our adjusted net income, in semi-annualsemi‑annual installments.  The amount of any of our distributions of dividends and/or interest attributed to shareholders’ equity will depend on a series of factors, such as our financial conditions, prospects, macroeconomic conditions, tariff adjustments, regulatory changes, growth strategies and other matters our Board of Directors and our shareholders may consider relevant.  In addition, covenants contained in our debt instruments may limit the amount of dividends and/or interest attributable to shareholders’ equity that we may make.  Within the context of our tax planning, we may in the future determine that it is to our benefit to distribute interest attributable to shareholders’ equity in lieu of dividends.

Our Board of Directors may approve the distribution of dividends and/or interest attributed to shareholders’ equity, calculated based on our annual or semi-annualsemi‑annual financial statements or on financial statements relating to shorter periods, or also based on accrued profits recorded or on profits allocated to non‑profits reserve accounts in the annual or semi-annualsemi‑annual financial statements.  The declaration of annual dividends, including dividends in excess of the mandatory distribution, requires approval by the vote of the majority of the holders of our common shares.

Shareholder Meetings

Actions to be taken at our shareholders’ meetings

At our shareholder meetings, shareholders are generally empowered to take any action relating to our corporate purpose and to pass such resolutions as they deem necessary.  The approval of our financial statements and the determination of the allocation of our net profits with respect to each fiscal year takestake place at the annual shareholder meeting immediately following such fiscal year.  The election of our directors and members of our fiscal council, if the requisite shareholders request its establishment, typically takes place at the annual shareholders’ meeting, although under Brazilian law it may also occur at a special shareholders’ meeting.

A special shareholders’ meeting may be held concurrently with the annual shareholders’ meeting.  The following actions may only be taken at a special shareholders’ meeting:

·        amendment of our bylaws;

·        cancellation of registration with the CVM as a publicly-heldpublicly‑held company;

·        the right to withdraw from the company in the cases specified in Brazilian Corporate Law, described in “Withdrawal Rights.”Rights”.

Quorum

As a general rule, Brazilian Corporate Law provides that a quorum atfor purposes of a shareholders’ meeting shall consists of shareholders representing at least 25.0% of a company’s issued and outstanding voting capital on the first call and, if that quorum is not reached, any percentage on the second call.  A quorum for the purposes of amending our bylaws consists of shareholders representing at least two-thirdstwo‑thirds of our issued and outstanding voting capital on the first call and any percentage on the second call.

As a general rule, the affirmative vote of shareholders representing at least the majority of our issued and outstanding common shares present in person or represented by proxy at a shareholders’ meeting is required to ratify any proposed action, with abstentions not taken into account.  However, the affirmative vote of shareholders representing one-halfone‑half of our issued and outstanding voting capital is required to:

Since 2008, the Company has been adopting a Manual for Participation in General Shareholders’ Meetings to provide, in a clear and summarized form, information relating to the Company’s Shareholders General Meeting and to encourage and facilitate the participation of all shareholders.  This manual includes a standard power of attorney, which may be used by shareholders who are unable to be present at the meetings to appoint an attorney-in-factattorney‑in‑fact to exercise their voting rights with regard to issues on the agenda.

Voting Rights of ADS Holders

ADS holders may instruct the depositary to vote the number of common shares that their ADSs represent.  The depositary will notify those holders of shareholders’ meetings and arrange to deliver our voting materials to them upon our request.  Those materials will describe the matters to be voted on and explain how the ADS holders may instruct the depositary how to vote.  For instructions to be valid, they must reach the depositary by a date set by the depositary.

We cannot assure ADS holders that they will receive the voting materials or otherwise learn of an upcoming shareholders’ meeting in time to ensure that they can instruct the depositary to vote their common shares.  In addition, the depositary and its agents are not responsible for failing to carry out voting instructions or for the manner of carrying out voting instructions. This means that ADS holders may not be able to exercise their right to vote and there may be nothing that they can do if their shares are not voted as they requested.

Preemptive Rights

Our shareholders have a general preemptive right to subscribe for shares in any capital increase according to the proportion of their shareholdings.  Our shareholders also have a general preemptive right to subscribe for any convertible debentures, rights to acquire our shares and subscription warrants that we may issue.  In accordance with our bylaws, in the case of a private placement, a period of at least 30 days following the publication of notice of the capital increase is allowed for the exercise of the preemptive right.  In the case of a public offering, the issuance may occur with or without the exercise of preemptive rights or with a reduced term for the exercise of preemptive rights.  Under Brazilian Corporate Law, holders are permitted to transfer or dispose of their preemptive right for consideration.

In addition, Brazilian Corporate Law allows for companies’ bylaws to give the board of directors the power to exclude preemptive rights or reduce the exercise period of such rights with respect to the issuance of new shares, debentures convertible into shares and subscription warrants up to the limit of the authorized share capital if the distribution of those shares is effected through a stock exchange, through a public offering or through an exchange of shares in a public offering the purpose of which is to acquire control of another company.

Withdrawal Rights

Brazilian Corporate Law grants our shareholders the right to withdraw from the company in case they disagree with decisions taken in shareholder’s meetings concerning the following matters:  (i) the reduction of minimum mandatory dividends; (ii) the merger of the company or consolidation with another company; (iii) the change of the corporate purpose of the company; or (iv) a spinoff of the company (if such spin-offspin‑off changes the company’s corporate purpose, reduces mandatory dividends or results in the company joining a group of entities).; or (v) the acquisition by us of the control of another company for a price that exceeds the limits established in paragraph two of Article 256 of Brazilian Corporate Law; or (vi) a change in our corporate form.  Even shareholders who did not vote or were not present at the relevant meeting may exercise this withdrawal right.

If our shareholders wish to withdraw from the company due to a merger, such right may only be exercised provided that the company’s shares have no liquidity in the market.

The withdrawal right entitles the shareholder to the reimbursement of the value of its shares, upon request within 30 days of the publication of notice of the shareholders meeting.  After such term, the company’s managementour Management bodies may choose to call a general meeting to ratify or reconsider the decision which triggered the withdrawal rights, should the payment of such rights threaten the financial stability of the company.

Exchange Controls and Other Limitations Affecting Security Holders

There are no restrictions on ownership of our capital stock by individuals or legal entities domiciled outside Brazil.  However, the right to convert dividend payments and proceeds from the sale of common shares into foreign currency and to remit such amounts outside Brazil is subject to restrictions under foreign investment legislation which generally requires, among other things, that the relevant investment be registered with the Brazilian Central Bank.  These restrictions on the remittance of foreign capital abroad could hinder or prevent the custodian for the common shares represented by American Depositary Shares, or holders who have exchanged American Depositary Shares for common shares, from converting dividends, distributions or the proceeds from any sale of common shares into U.S. dollars and remitting such U.S. dollars abroad.  Delays in, or refusal to grant any required government approval for conversions of Brazilian currency payments and remittances abroad of amounts owed to holders of American Depositary Shares could adversely affect holders of American depositary receipts, or ADRs.

Resolution No. 1,927/1992 of the National Monetary Council, which is the restated and amended Annex V to Resolution No. 1,289/1997,1987, which we call the Annex V Regulations, provides for the issuance of depositary receipts in foreign markets in respect of shares of Brazilian issuers.  It provides that the proceeds from the sale of American Depositary Shares by holders of American depositary receipts outside Brazil are free of Brazilian foreign investment controls and holders of American Depositary Shares who are not resident in a tax haven jurisdiction (i.e. a country or location that does not impose taxes on income or where the maximum income tax rate is lower than 20.0%, or where the legislation imposes restrictions on disclosure of the shareholding composition or the ownership of the investment) will be entitled to favorable tax treatment.

An electronic registration has been issued by the custodian in the name of Deutsche Bank, the depositary, with respect to the American Depositary Shares.  Pursuant to this electronic registration, the custodian and the depositary are able to convert dividends and other distributions with respect to the common shares represented by American Depositary Shares into foreign currency and to remit the proceeds outside Brazil.  If a holder exchanges American Depositary Shares for common shares, the holder may continue to rely on the custodian’s electronic registration for only five business days after the exchange.  After that, the holder must seek to obtain its own electronic registration with the Brazilian Central Bank under Law No. 4,131/1962 or Resolution No. 2,689/2000.  Thereafter,unless the holder has registered its investment with the Brazilian Central Bank, such holder may not convert into foreign currency and remit outside Brazil the proceeds from the disposition of, or distributions with respect to, such common shares.  A holder that obtains an electronic registration generally will be subject to lessfavorable Brazilian tax treatment than a holder of American Depositary Shares.  See “—Taxation—Brazilian Tax Considerations.”Considerations”.

Under Brazilian law, whenever there is a serious imbalance in Brazil’s balance of payments or reasons to foresee a serious imbalance, the Brazilian government may impose temporary restrictions on the remittance to foreign investors of the proceeds of their investments in Brazil, and on the conversion of Brazilian currency into foreign currencies.  Such restrictions may hinder or prevent the custodian or holders who have exchanged American Depositary Shares for underlying common shares from converting distributions or the proceeds from any sale of such shares, as the case may be, into U.S. dollars and remitting such U.S. dollars abroad.

Taxation

The following discussion summarizes the material Brazilian and U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares or ADSs, but it does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all the tax considerations that may be relevant to a decision to purchase, own or dispose of common shares or ADSs.  The summary is based upon the tax laws of Brazil and regulations thereunder and on the tax laws of the United States and regulations thereunder as in effect on the date hereof, which are subject to change (possibly on a retroactive basis) and different interpretations. Holders of common shares or ADSs should consult their own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares or ADSs.

Although there is at presentcurrently no income tax treaty between Brazil and the United States, the tax authorities of the two countries have had discussions that may culminate in such a treaty.  No assurance can be given, however, as to whether or when a treaty will enter into force or how it will affect the U.S. holders (as defined below) of common shares or ADSs.  Prospective holders of common shares or ADSs should consult their own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares or ADSs in their particular circumstances.

Brazilian Tax Considerations

The following discussion summarizes the material Brazilian tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our common shares or ADSs by a holder that is not domiciled in Brazil for purposes of Brazilian taxation, or a Non‑Brazilian Holder.

Pursuant to Brazilian law, foreign investors may invest in the common shares under Resolution No. 2,689 of the National Monetary Council, or Resolution No. 2,689.

Resolution No. 2,689 allows foreign investors to invest in almost all financial assets and to engage in almost all transactions available in the Brazilian financial and capital markets, provided that some requirements are fulfilled.  In accordance with Resolution No. 2,689, the definition of foreign investor includes individuals, legal entities, mutual funds and other collective investment entities, domiciled or headquartered abroad.

Pursuant to Resolution No. 2,689, foreign investors must:  (i) appoint at least one representative in Brazil with powersthe power to perform actions relating to the foreign investment; (ii) complete the appropriate foreign investor registration form; (iii) register as a foreign investor with the CVM; and (iv) register the foreign investment with the Brazilian Central Bank.

Securities and other financial assets held by foreign investors pursuant to Resolution No. 2,689 must be registered or maintained in deposit accounts or under the custody of an entity duly licensed by the Brazilian Central Bank or the CVM.  In addition, securities trading is restricted to transactions carried out in the stock exchanges or organized over‑the-counterthe‑counter markets licensed by the CVM, except for transfers resulting from a corporate reorganization, occurring upon the death of an investor by operation of law or will or as a consequence of the delisting of the relevant shares from a stock exchange and the cancellation of the registration with the CVM.

Taxation of Dividends

Dividends, includingStock dividends in kind, paid by usa Brazilian company to foreign investors, with respect both to foreign direct investments and to foreign investments carried out under the depositary in respectrules of the common shares underlying the ADSs or to a Non‑Brazilian Holder in respect of common sharesResolution No. 2,689/00, are generally will not be subject to Brazilian withholding income tax providedin Brazil, to the extent that theysuch amounts are paid out ofrelated to profits generated as of or after January 1, 1996.1996, as provided under article 10 of Law No. 9,249, dated December 26, 1995, or Law No. 9,249/95.

In this context, it should be noted that Law No. 11,638, dated December 28, 2007, or Law No. 11,638/07, significantly altered the Brazilian corporate law in order to align the Brazilian generally accepted accounting standards more closely with the IFRS.  Nonetheless, Law No. 11,941, dated May 27, 2009, introduced the Transitory Tax Regime, or RTT, in order to render neutral, from a tax perspective, all the changes provided by Law No. 11,638/07.  Under the RTT, for tax purposes, legal entities should observe the accounting methods and criteria as in force on December 31, 2007.

Profits determined pursuant to Law No. 11,638/07, or IFRS Profits, can differ from the profits calculated pursuant to the accounting methods and criteria as in force on December 31, 2007, or 2007 Profits.

While it was general market practice to distribute exempted dividends with reference to the IFRS Profits, Normative Ruling No. 1,397 issued by the Brazilian tax authorities on September 16, 2013 (“Normative Ruling No. 1,397/13”) has established that legal entities should observe the accounting methods and criteria as in force on December 31, 2007 (e.g., the 2007 Profits), upon determining the amount of profits that could be distributed as exempted income to its beneficiaries.

Any profits paid in excess of said 2007 Profits, or Excess Dividends, relatingshould, in the tax authorities’ view and in the specific case of non‑resident beneficiaries, be subject to the following rules of taxation:  (i) 15% withholding income tax, or WHT, in the case of beneficiaries domiciled abroad, but not in tax havens, and (ii) 25% WHT, in the case of beneficiaries domiciled in tax havens.

Since tax authorities could attempt to charge income tax due over Excess Dividends paid over the past five years based on the provisions of Normative Ruling No. 1,397/13, and in order to try to mitigate potential lawsuits of taxpayers that could argue that Normative Ruling No. 1,397/13 is unlawful, the Brazilian government has recently introduced a whole new set of tax rules under Provisional Measure No. 627, dated November 11, 2013, which will be mandatory for all legal entities as of the year 2015, or the New Tax Regime, a provision that states that in case the Brazilian company paying the dividends voluntarily elects the New Tax Regime for the year 2014, tax authorities will not attempt to charge the income tax potentially due over the Excess Dividends paid up until the date the New Tax Regime was published.  As to profits generated prioraccumulated between 2008 and 2013 distributed after November 11, 2013, Normative Ruling No. 1,397/13 remains applicable as to December 31, 1995 arethe potential challenges on the validity of its provisions.

 On the other hand, in case the Brazilian company paying the dividends does not elect the New Tax Regime for the year 2014, it could be subject to a tax assessment on any Excess Dividends potentially paid during the period from 2008 up until the end of 2014.

Note that wording of the New Tax Regime is still tentative and can be altered during the process of its conversion into law.  In that case, the Brazilian withholding tax from 15.0% to 25.0% according tocompany cannot assure that the tax legislation applicable to each corresponding year in whichregime described above will be confirmed upon conversion of the profits have been earned.New Tax Regime into law.

Taxation of Gains

ADSs.  AccordingPursuant to applicable Brazilian law (LawLaw No. 10,833/2003), capital10,833, enacted on December 29, 2003, gains arising from transactions between two non‑resident parties, involvingon the disposition or sale of assets situatedlocated in Brazil areby a Non‑Brazilian Holder, whether to another non‑Brazilian resident or to a Brazilian resident, may be subject to withholding in Brazil income tax.

With respect to the disposition of our common shares, as they are assets located in Brazil, the Non‑Brazilian withholdingHolder should be subject to income tax aton the gains assessed, following the rules described below, regardless of whether the transactions are conducted in Brazil or with a rateBrazilian resident.

Table of 15.0% (25.0% in case the seller is situated in a tax haven jurisdiction).  Arguably,Contents

With respect to our ADSs, arguably the gains realized by a Non‑Brazilian Holder onupon the disposition of ADSs to another non‑Brazilian resident should not be taxed in Brazil, based on the ideabasis that ADSs wouldare not constitute assets“assets located in BrazilBrazil” for the purposes of Law No. 10,833/2003.  However, we10,833.  We cannot assure you, of howhowever, that the Brazilian tax authorities or the Brazilian courts would interpret the definition of assets located in Brazil in connectionwill agree with the taxation ofthis interpretation.  As a result, gains realized by a Non‑Brazilian Holder on the disposition of ADSs to another non‑Brazilian resident.  Thus, the gain on a disposition of ADSs by a Non‑Brazilian Holder to a Brazilian resident, in Brazil (or possiblyor even to a Non‑non‑Brazilian Holder),resident, in the event that courts determine that ADSs would constitute assets located in Brazil, may be subject to income tax in Brazil according to the rules applicable to our common shares, described below for the common shares. Non‑Brazilian Holders should consult their own tax advisor concerning the tax consequencesabove.

As a general rule, gains realized as a result of a saledisposition of our common shares or ADSs are the positive difference between the amount realized on the transaction and the acquisition cost of our common shares or ADSs.

Under Brazilian law, however, income tax rules on such gains may vary depending on the domicile of the Non‑Brazilian Holder, the type of registration of the investment by the Non‑Brazilian Holder with the Brazilian Central Bank and how the disposition is carried out, as described below.

Gains realized on a disposition of shares carried out on a Brazilian stock exchange (which includes the organized over‑the‑counter market) are:

·exempt from income tax when realized by a Non‑Brazilian Holder that (1) has registered the investment in Brazil with the Brazilian Central Bank under the rules of Resolution 2,689, or a 2,689 Holder, and (2) is not a resident in a country or location which is defined as a “Favorable Tax Jurisdiction” for this purposes as described below; or

Although there are grounds·subject to sustain otherwise,income tax at a rate of 15% in the case of gains realized by (A) a Non‑Brazilian Holder that (1) is not a 2,689 Holder and (2) is not a Favorable Tax Jurisdiction Resident; or by (B) a Non‑Brazilian Holder that (1) is a 2,689 Holder, and (2) is a Favorable Tax Jurisdiction Resident.  In this case, a withholding income rate of 0.005% shall be applicable and withheld by the intermediary institution (i.e., a broker) that receives the order directly from the Non‑Resident Holder, which can be later offset against any income tax due on the capital gain earned by the Non‑Resident Holder; and

·subject to income tax at a rate of up to 25% in case, of gains assessed by a Non‑Brazilian Holder that is not a 2,689 Holder, and is a Favorable Tax Jurisdiction Resident for this purpose (as described below).  In these cases, a withholding income tax of 0.005% of the sale value will be applicable and can be later offset with the eventual income tax due on the capital gain.

In the case of redemption of securities or capital reduction by a Brazilian corporation, such as us, the positive difference between the amount effectively received by the Non‑Brazilian Holder and the corresponding acquisition cost is treated, for tax purposes, as capital gain derived from sale or exchange of shares not carried out on a Brazilian stock exchange, and is therefore subject to income tax at the rate of 15% or 25%, as the case may be.

The deposit of our common shares in exchange for ADSs maywill be subject to Brazilian withholding income tax if the acquisition cost of the common shares is lower than (i)(1) the average price per common share on a Brazilian stock exchange on which the greatest number of such shares were sold on the day of deposit;deposit, or (ii)(2) if no common shares were sold on that day, the average price on the Brazilian stock exchange on which the greatest number of common shares were sold in the 15 trading sessions immediately preceding such deposit.  In suchthis case, the difference between the acquisition cost and the average price of the common shares calculated as above will be considered to be a capital gain subject to withholding income tax at athe rate of 15.0%15% or 25.0% in25%, as the case may be.  In some circumstances, there may be arguments to claim that this taxation is not applicable, including the case of investors located in a tax haven jurisdiction (if the common shares are held by an investor registered under Resolution No. 2,689Non‑Brazilian Holder that is a 2,689 Holder and is not a resident in a tax haven jurisdiction, and the sale is performed at the stock exchange, however,“Favorable Tax Jurisdiction” for this purpose.  The availability of these arguments to any gain will be tax exempt from income tax in such transaction).

The withdrawalspecific holder of our common shares upon cancellationwill depend on the circumstances of ADSs is not subject to Brazilian incomethe holder.  Prospective holders of our common shares should consult their own tax advisors as long as the regulatory rules are appropriately observed with respect to the registrationtax consequences of the investment before the Central Bank.

Common Shares.  As a general rule, gains realized by Non‑Brazilian Holders on any dispositiondeposit of our common shares are subject to income tax at a rate of 15.0%, regardless of whether the sale or the disposition is made by the Non‑Brazilian Holder to a resident or non‑resident in Brazil, or if the transaction is conducted in Brazil or abroad, exceptexchange for the specific cases described below.ADSs.

Gains realized on any disposition of common shares by Non‑Brazilian Holders who are resident in a jurisdiction that is deemed to be a “tax haven jurisdiction” under Brazilian law (i.e., a country that does not impose any income tax or that imposes tax at a maximum rate of less than 20.0%, or which laws impose restrictions on disclosure of ownership composition or securities ownership such that the identification of the beneficial owner of income is not permitted) are subject to income tax at a rate of 25.0%.

Gains realized on sales or disposition of common shares carried out on the Brazilian stock exchange by Non‑Brazilian Holders who are not resident in a tax haven jurisdiction are exempt from income tax, if such Non‑Brazilian Holder is registered under Resolution No. 2,689.  If the Non‑Brazilian Holder is a resident of a tax haven or is not registered under Resolution No. 2,689, the gain realized on such sale or disposition of common shares is subject to income tax at a rate of 15.0%.  In these cases, a withholding income tax of 0.005% on the sale value shall be applicable and can be offset with the eventual income tax due on the capital gain.

Gains on the disposition of common shares are measured by the difference between the amount in Brazilian currency obtained from the sale or exchange of the shares and their acquisition cost in Brazilian currency, without any monetary adjustment.  However, for Non‑Brazilian Holders with a direct investment in common shares registered as foreign capital with the Central Bank, the acquisition cost should be measured in foreign currency, converted intoreais at the date of the sale.10

Exercise of Preemptive RightsAny exercise of preemptive rights relating to theour common shares or ADSs will not be subject to Brazilian taxation.  Any gain on the sale or assignment of preemptive rights relating to our common shares, including the sale or assignment carried out by the depositary, on behalf of holdersNon‑Brazilian Holders of ADSs, will be subject to Brazilian income taxation according to the same rules applicable to the sale or disposition of our common shares.

Interpretation of the Discussion on the Definition of “Favorable Tax Jurisdiction”

On June 4, 2010, Brazilian tax authorities enacted Normative Instruction No. 1,037 listing (i) the countries and jurisdictions considered as Favorable Tax Jurisdiction or where local legislation does not allow access to information related to the shareholding composition of legal entities to their ownership or to the identity of the effective beneficiary of the income attributed to non‑residents, or Tax Haven Jurisdictions, and (ii) the privileged tax regimes, whose definition is provided by Law No. 11,727, of June 23, 2008.  Although we believe that the best interpretation of the current tax legislation could lead to the conclusion that the above mentioned “privileged tax regime” concept should apply solely for purposes of Brazilian transfer pricing and thin capitalization rules, we cannot assure you whether subsequent legislation or interpretations by the Brazilian tax authorities regarding the definition of a “privileged tax regime” provided by Law No. 11,727 will also apply to a Non‑Brazilian Holder on payments potentially made by a Brazilian source.

We recommend prospective investors consult their own tax advisors from time to time to verify any possible tax consequences arising of Normative Ruling No. 1,037 and Law No. 11,727.  If the Brazilian tax authorities determine that the concept of “privileged tax regime” provided by Law No. 11,727 will also apply to a Non‑Resident Holder on payments potentially made by a Brazilian source the withholding income tax applicable to such payments could be assessed at a rate up to 25%.

Interest Attributable to Shareholders’ EquityLaw No. 9,249, dated December 26, 1995, as amended, allows a Brazilian corporation, such as us, to make distributions to shareholders of interest on shareholders’ equity, and treat those payments as a deductible expense for purposes of calculating Brazilian corporate income tax, and, since 1998, social contribution on net profit as well, as long as the limits described below are observed.  These distributions may be paid in cash.  For tax purposes, the deductible amount of this interest is limited to the daily pro rata variation of the TJLP, as determined by the Brazilian Central Bank from time to time, and the amount of the deduction may not exceed the greater of:

·50% of net income (after the deduction of social contribution on net profit but before taking into account the provision for corporate income tax and the amounts attributable to shareholders as interest on shareholders’ equity) for the period in respect of which the payment is made; and

·50% of the sum of retained profits and income reserves as of the date of the beginning of the period in respect of which the payment is made.

Payment of interest on shareholders’ equity to a Non‑Brazilian Holder is subject to withholding income tax at the rate of 15%, or 25% if the Non‑Brazilian Holder is domiciled in a Favorable Tax Jurisdiction.

These payments of interest on shareholders’ equity to a Non‑Brazilian Holder may be included, at their net value, as part of any mandatory dividend.  To the extent payment of interest on net equity is so included, we are required to distribute to shareholders an additional amount to ensure that the net amount received by them, after payment of the applicable income tax withholding, is at least equal to the mandatory dividend.

Payments of interest on shareholders’ equity to shareholders who are either Brazilian residents or non‑Brazilian residents, including holders of ADSs, are subject to Brazilian income withholding tax at the rate of 15.0%, or 25.0% for shareholders domiciled in a low tax jurisdiction.  The amounts paid as interest on equity (net of the withholding income tax) may be considered as payment of mandatory dividends.

The payment of interest on shareholders’ equity may be recommendeddecided by our Boardshareholders, at an annual shareholders meeting, on the basis of Directors and needs torecommendations of on board of directors.  No assurance can be approved by our general shareholders’ meeting.  We cannot assure yougiven that our Boardboard of Directorsdirectors will not recommend that future distributions of profits mayshould be made by means of interest on shareholders’ equity instead of by means of dividends.

Tax on foreign exchange transactions

The conversion of foreign currency into Brazilianreais as well asand the conversion of Brazilianreaisinto foreign currency are subject to a tax on foreign exchange transactions, (“or the IOF/Exchange”).Exchange.  The rate of suchthis tax varies according to the nature of the transaction, such as:

·Inflowtransaction.  Foreign exchange agreements entered into in connection with inflows of funds from foreign investors for investment in the Brazilian financial and capital markets:  6%; except that the rate will be 0% for the following transactions:  (i)related to investments carried out on by Non‑Brazilian stock, futures or commodities exchanges, as regulated by the National Monetary Council, except in case of derivative transactions with pre‑established earnings; (ii) purchase of shares in public offerings or subscription of shares of publicly-traded companies; (iii) purchase of quotas of private equity funds, emerging company funds or funds investing in emerging company funds; (iv) cancellation of depositary receipts for investment in shares traded on Brazilian stock exchanges; and (v) change in the foreign investment regime from direct investment to investment in shares traded on Brazilian stock exchanges, as regulated by the National Monetary Council.

·Outflow of funds to foreign investors of the funds investedHolders in the Brazilian financial and capital markets regardingare not currently subject to the above-mentioned transaction:  0%;

·RemittancesIOF/Exchange Tax.  This zero percent rate also applies to the outflow of funds arising from payments of dividends and interest on shareholders’ equity to foreign investors relatedNon‑Brazilian Holders with respect to investments in Brazilian financial and capital markets.  Other than these transactions, the above-mentioned transactions:  0%;

·Inflow of funds regarding loans contracted as from March 12, 2012, with an average maturity term equal or lower than 1,800 days (five years):  6%; and

·Otherrate applicable to most foreign exchange transactions (subjectis 0.38%.  Other rates may apply to exceptions provided inparticular transactions and the applicable legislation):  0.38%.

10This is our interpretation of the legislation in force.  This matter is still controversial, as there are recent rulings from the tax authorities providing that direct foreign investments registered with the Central Bank as RDE-IED (Registro Declaratório Eletrônico de Investimentos Estrangeiros Diretos) be converted into Brazilian currency at the date of the original investment.

Tax on transactions involving bonds and securities

Brazilian law imposes a tax on transactions involving bonds and securities, (the “IOF/or the IOF/Bonds Tax”),Tax, including those carried out on Brazilian stock, futures or commodities exchanges.  The IOF/Bonds Tax is currently reduced to zero in almost all transactions, except redemptionincluding those carried out on a Brazilian stock exchange.  The rate of fixed yield investments lasting less than 30 days.  However, thisthe IOF/Bonds Tax applicable to transactions involving our common shares is currently zero, including, as of December 24, 2013, the rate of the IOF/Bonds Tax applicable to the transfer of our common shares with the specific purpose of enabling the issuance of ADSs.  The Brazilian government may be increasedincrease the rate of the IOF/Bonds Tax at any time to up to 1.5% per day byof the President,transaction amount, but only within respect to future transactions.  Currently, this tax is reduced to zero on all transactions involving stocks, except for shares underlying depositary receipts, in which case the IOF/Bonds Tax will apply at a 1.5% rate.

The transaction value to be considered for purposes of the IOF/Bonds Tax basis will be calculated by multiplying the number of shares by its closing quotation on the date prior to the transaction or, if no trades occurred on such date, by the last closing quotation available.  In the case of public offerings, the quotation to be considered for purposes of IOF/Bonds Tax basis will be the price established on the bookbuilding procedure or, if applicable, the price established by the seller on the documents of the public offering.

As of July 26, 2011, the IOF/Bonds Tax applies at a 1.0% rate per day on the adjusted notional value of transactions involving derivatives linked tocarried out after the exchange variation risk, when the purchase, sale or maturity of the derivatives resultsincrease in an increase of the net short position of the holder as compared to its net short position at the end of the previous business day, pursuant to agreements registered with the BM&FBOVESPA and/or over-the-counter market.rate enters into effect.

Other Relevant Brazilian Taxes

There are no Brazilian inheritance, gift or succession taxes applicable to the ownership, transfer or disposition of common shares or ADSs by a Non‑Brazilian Holder except for gift and inheritance taxes levied by certain Brazilian states on gifts or inheritance bestowed by individuals or entities not resident or domiciled in Brazil or not domiciled within that state, to individuals or entities resident or domiciled within in that Brazilian state.  There are no Brazilian stamp,stamps, issue, registration or similar taxes or duties payable by holders of common shares or ADSs.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences

This discussion is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares or ADSs.  This discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the “Code”),or the Code, its legislative history, existing final, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations, administrative pronouncements by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, (the “IRS”)or the IRS, and judicial decisions, in each case as of the date hereof, all of which are subject to change (possibly on a retroactive basis) and to different interpretations.

This discussion does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to a particular holder (including tax considerations that arise from rules of general application to all taxpayers or to certain classes of investors or that are generally assumed to be known by investors) and holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding their specific tax situations.  This discussion applies only to holders of common shares or ADSs who hold the common shares or ADSs as “capital assets” (generally, property held for investment) under the Code and does not address the tax consequences that may be relevant to holders in special tax situations, including, for example:

·        brokers or dealers in securities or currencies;

·        U.S. holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

Except where specifically described below, this discussion assumes that we are not a passive foreign investment company, (a “PFIC”)or a PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  In addition, this discussion does not address tax considerations applicable to persons that hold an interest in a partnership (or other entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that holds common shares or ADSs, or any U.S. federal estate and gift, state, local or non‑U.S. tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares or ADSs.  This discussion does not address the Medicare tax on net investment income.  Each holder should consult such holder’s own tax advisor concerning the overall tax consequences to it, including the consequences under laws other than U.S. federal income tax laws, of an investment in common shares or ADSs.

As used herein, the term “U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of common shares or ADSs that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (i) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States; (ii) a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia; (iii) an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or (iv) a trust if (A) it is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all of the substantial decisions of the trust or (B) it has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.  As used herein, the term “non‑U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of common shares or ADSs that is neither a U.S. holder nor a partnership (or an entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes).

If a partnership (or other entity classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) owns common shares or ADSs, the tax treatment of a partner in such partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership holding common shares or ADSs.  Partnerships that are beneficial owners of common shares or ADSs, and partners in such partnerships, should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, state, local and non‑U.S. tax considerations applicable to them with respect to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of common shares or ADSs.

For U.S. federal income tax purposes, a holder of an ADS will generally be treated as the beneficial owner of the common shares represented by the ADS.  However, see the discussion below under “Taxation of Distributions” regarding certain statements made by the U.S. Treasury Department concerning depositary arrangements.

Taxation of Distributions

The gross amount of any distributions of cash or property made with respect to common shares or ADSs (including distributions characterized as interest on shareholders’ equity for Brazilian law purposes and any amountswithheld to reflect Brazilian withholding taxes) generally will be taxable as dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent of our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles.

103


Table of Contents

A U.S. holder will generally include such dividends in gross income as ordinary income on the day such dividends are actually or constructively received.  Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earningsand profits will be treated first as a non‑taxablenon-taxable return of capital, thereby reducing the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis (but not below zero) in common shares or ADSs, as applicable, and thereafter as either long‑termlong-term or short‑termshort-term capital gain (depending on whether the U.S. holder has held common shares or ADSs, as applicable, for more than one year as of the time such distribution is actually or constructively received).

117


Table of Contents

If any cash dividends are paid inreais, the amount of a distribution paid inreaiswill be the U.S. dollar value of thereaisreceived, calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date of actual or constructive receipt, regardless of whether the payment inreais  is in fact converted into U.S. dollars at that time.  If thereaisreceived as a dividend are converted into U.S. dollars on the date of actual or constructive receipt, a U.S. holder should not recognize foreign currency gain or loss in respect of such dividend.  If thereais  received as a dividend are not converted into U.S. dollars on the date of actual or constructive receipt, a U.S. holder will have a tax basis in thereais  equal to their U.S. dollar value on the date of receipt.  If anyreais  actually or constructively received by a U.S. holder are later converted into U.S. dollars, such U.S. holder may recognize foreign currency gain or loss, which would be treated as ordinary gain or loss.  Such gain or loss generally will be treated as gain or loss from sources within the United States for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes.  U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors concerning the possibility of foreign currency gain or loss if any suchreaisare not converted into U.S. dollars on the date of actual or constructive receipt.

Dividends paid by us will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporations under the Code.  Subject to the below-mentionedbelow‑mentioned concerns by the U.S. Treasury Department regarding certain inconsistent actions taken by intermediaries and certain exceptions for short‑term and hedged positions, the U.S. dollar amount of dividends received by certain U.S. holders (including individuals) in a taxable year beginning on or before December 31, 2012 with respect to the ADSs will be subject to taxation at a maximum rate of 15.0%20.0% if the dividends represent “qualified dividend income.”income”.  Dividends paid on the ADSs will be treated as qualified dividend income if (i) the ADSs are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States and (ii) we were not, in the year prior to the year in which the dividend was paid, and are not, in the year in which the dividend is paid, a PFIC.  The ADSs are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, and will qualify as readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States so long as they are so listed.  However, no assurances can be given that the ADSs will be or will remain readily tradable.  See below for a discussion regarding our PFIC determination.

Based on existing guidance, it is not entirely clear whether dividends received with respect to the common shares will be treated as qualified dividend income, because the common shares are not themselves listed on a U.S. exchange.  In addition, the U.S. Treasury Department has announced its intention to promulgate rules pursuant to which holders of common shares or ADSs and intermediaries through whom such securities are held will be permitted to rely on certifications from issuers to establish that dividends are treated as qualified dividends.  Because such procedures have not yet been issued, it is not clear whether we will be able to comply with them. U.S. holders of common shares or ADSs should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of the reduced dividend tax rate in the light of their own particular circumstances.

Subject to certain limitations (including a minimum holding period requirement), a U.S. holder may be entitled to claim a U.S. foreign tax credit in respect of any Brazilian income taxes withheld on dividends received with respect to the common shares or ADSs.  A U.S. holder that does not elect to claim a credit for any foreign income taxes paid or accrued during a taxable year may instead claim a deduction in respect of such Brazilian income taxes, provided that the U.S. holder elects to deduct (rather than credit) all foreign income taxes paid or accrued for the taxable year.  Dividends received with respect to the common shares or ADSs generally will be treated as dividend income from sources outside of the United States and generally will constitute “passive category income” for U.S. foreign tax credit limitation purposes for most U.S. holders.  The rules governing foreign tax credits are complex and U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the availability of foreign tax credits in their particular circumstances.  The U.S. Treasury Department has expressed concern that intermediaries in connection with depositary arrangements may be taking actions that are inconsistent with the claiming of foreign tax credits by U.S. persons who are holding depositary shares.  Accordingly, U.S. holders should be aware that thediscussion above regarding the ability to credit Brazilian withholding tax on dividends and the availability of the reduced tax rate for dividends received by certain non-corporatenon‑corporate holders above could be affected by actions taken by parties to whom the ADSs are released and the IRS.

Distributions of additional shares to holders with respect to their common shares or ADSs that are made as part of a pro rata distribution to all our shareholders generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax.

118


Table of Contents

Non‑U.S. holders generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax or withholding tax on distributions with respect to common shares or ADSs that are treated as dividend income for U.S. federal income tax purposes unless such dividends are effectively connected with the conduct by such holders of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment or fixed base).

Taxation of Sales, Exchanges or Other Taxable Dispositions

Deposits and withdrawals of common shares by U.S. holders in exchange for ADSs will not result in the realization of gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Upon the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of common shares or ADSs, a U.S. holder will generally recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to the difference between the amount realized in consideration for the disposition of the common shares or ADSs (including the gross amount of the proceeds before the deduction of any Brazilian tax) and the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the common shares or ADSs.  The initial tax basis of common shares or ADSs held by a U.S. holder will be the U.S. dollar value of thereais-denominated‑denominated purchase price determined on the date of purchase.  Such gain or loss generally will be treated as capital gain or loss and will be long‑term capital gain or loss if the common shares or ADSs have been held for more than one year at the time of the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition.  Although we do not believe that U.S. holders will be entitled to a credit or deduction with respect to any IOF/Exchange paid on common shares or ADSs (as discussed in “—Brazilian Tax Considerations—Taxation of Gains—Tax on foreign exchange transactions”), U.S. holders should be entitled to include the amount of the IOF/Exchange paid as part of their initial basis in such common shares or ADSs.  Under current law, certain non‑corporate U.S. holders (including individuals) may be eligible for preferential rates of U.S. federal income tax in respect of long‑term capital gains.  The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations under the Code.

If Brazilian income tax is withheld on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of common shares or ADSs, the amount realized by a U.S. holder will include the gross amount of the proceeds of that sale, exchange or other taxable disposition before deduction of the Brazilian income tax withheld.  Capital gain or loss, if any, realized by a U.S. holder on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of common shares or ADSs generally will be treated as U.S. source gain or loss for U.S. foreign tax credit purposes.  Consequently, in the case of a gain from the disposition of common shares or ADSs that is subject to Brazilian income tax (see “—Brazilian Tax Considerations—Taxation of Gains”), the U.S. holder may not be able to benefit from the foreign tax credit for that Brazilian income tax (i.e., because the gain from the disposition would be U.S. source), unless the U.S. holder can apply the credit against U.S. federal income tax payable on other income from foreign sources.  Alternatively, the U.S. holder may take a deduction for the Brazilian income tax, provided that the U.S. holder elects to deduct all foreign income taxes paid or accrued for the taxable year.

A non‑U.S. holder will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax or withholding tax on gain realized on the sale or other taxable disposition of common shares or ADSs unless (i) such non‑U.S. holder is an individual who is present in the United States  of America for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the sale and certain other conditions are met or (ii) such gain is effectively connected with the conduct by the non‑U.S. holder of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a U.S. permanent establishment or fixed base).  If the first exception (i) applies, the non‑U.S. holder generally will be subject to tax at a rate of 30% on the amount by which the gains derived from the sales that are from U.S. sources exceed capital losses allocable to U.S. sources.  If the second exception (ii) applies, the non‑U.S. holder generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to the gain in the same manner as U.S. holders, as described above.  In addition, in the case of (ii), if such non‑U.S. holder is a foreign corporation, it may be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30% (or such lower rate provided by an applicable treaty) upon the actual or deemed repatriation of its effectively connected earnings and profits for the taxable year, subject to certain adjustments.

Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules

Special U.S. federal income tax rules apply to U.S. persons owning shares of a PFIC.  In general, a non‑U.S. corporation will be classified as a PFIC for any taxable year during which, after applying relevant look through rules with respect to the income and assets of subsidiaries, either (i) 75.0% or more of the non‑U.S. corporation’s gross income is “passive income” or (ii) on average 50.0% or more of the gross value of the non‑U.S. corporation’s assets produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income.  For these purposes, passive income generally includes, among other things, dividends, interest, rents, royalties, gains from the disposition of passive assets and gains from commodities and securities transactions, other than certain active business gains from the sale of commodities (subject(subject to various exceptions)exceptions).  In determining whether a non‑U.S.corporation is a PFIC, a pro rata portion of the income and assets of each corporation in which it owns, directly or indirectly, at least 25.0% interest (by value) is taken into account.

119


Table of Contents

The determination as to whether a non‑U.S. corporation is a PFIC is based on the composition of the income, expenses and assets of the non‑U.S. corporation from time to time and the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules, which are subject to different interpretationsand involves uncertainty.  Based on our audited financial statements, the nature ofour business, and relevant market and shareholder data,we believe thatwe would not be classified as a PFIC forour last taxable year orour current taxable year (although the determination cannot be made until the end of such taxable year), andwe do not expect to be classified as a PFIC in the foreseeable future, based onour current business plans andour current interpretation of the Code and Treasury regulations that are currently in effect.  However, because the application of the Code and Treasury regulations are not entirely clear and because PFIC status depends on the composition of a non-U.S.non‑U.S. corporation’s income and assets and the market value of its assets from time to time, there can be no assurance that we will not be treated as a PFIC for any taxable year.

If, contrary to the discussion above, we are treated as a PFIC, a U.S. holder would be subject to special rules (and may be subject to increased U.S. federal income tax liability and filing requirements) with respect to (a) any gain realized on the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of common shares or ADSs and (b) any “excess distribution” made by us to the U.S. holder (generally, any distribution during a taxable year in which distributions to the U.S. holder on the common shares or ADSs exceed 125% of the average annual distributions the U.S. holder received on the common shares or ADSs during the preceding three taxable years or, if shorter, the U.S. holder’s holding period for the common shares or ADSs).  Under those rules, (a) the gain or excess distribution would be allocated ratably over the U.S. holder’s holding period for the common shares or ADSs, (b) the amount allocated to the taxable year in which the gain or excess distribution is realized and to taxable years before the first day on which the Companywe  became a PFIC would be taxable as ordinary income, (c) the amount allocated to each prior year in which  the Company waswe were a PFIC would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the highest tax rate in effect for that year and (d) the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of U.S. federal income tax would be imposed in respect of the tax attributable to each prior year in which  the Company waswe were a PFIC.

If we are treated as a PFIC and, at any time, we invest in non‑U.S. corporations that are classified as PFICs (each, a “lower-tier“lower‑tier PFIC”), U.S. holders generally will be deemed to own, and also would be subject to the PFIC rules with respect to, their indirect ownership interest in that lower-tierlower‑tier PFIC.  If we are treated as a PFIC, a U.S. holder could incur liability for the deferred tax and interest charge described above if either (i) we receive a distribution from, or disposesdispose of all or part of itsour  interest in, the lower-tierlower‑tier PFIC or (ii) the U.S. holder disposes of all or part of its common shares or ADSs.

In general, if we are treated as a PFIC, the rules described above can be avoided by a U.S. holder that elects to be subject to a mark-to-marketmark‑to‑market regime for stock in a PFIC.  A U.S. holder may elect mark-to-marketmark‑to‑market treatment for its common shares or ADSs, provided the common shares or ADSs, for purposes of the rules, constitute “marketable stock” as defined in Treasury regulations.  The ADSs will be “marketable stock” for this purpose if they are regularly traded on the New York Stock Exchange, other than in de minimis quantities on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter.  A U.S. holder electing the mark-to-marketmark‑to‑market regime generally would compute gain or loss at the end of each taxable year as if the common shares or ADSs had been sold at fair market value.  Any gain recognized by the U.S. holder under mark-to-marketmark‑to‑market treatment, or on an actual sale, would be treated as ordinary income, and the U.S. holder would be allowed an ordinary deduction for any decrease in the value of common shares or ADSs as of the end of any taxable year, and for any loss recognized on an actual sale, but only to the extent, in each case, of previously included mark-to-marketmark‑to‑market income not offset by previously deducted decreases invalue.  Any loss on an actual sale of common shares or ADSs would be a capital loss to the extent in excess of previously included mark-to-marketmark‑to‑market income not offset by previously deducted decreases in value.  A U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in common shares or ADSs would increase or decrease by gain or loss taken into account under the mark-to-marketmark‑to‑market regime.  A mark-to-marketmark‑to‑market election is generally irrevocable.  In addition, a mark-to-marketmark‑to‑market election with respect to common shares or ADSs would not apply to any lower-tierlower‑tier PFIC, and a U.S. holder would not be able to make such a mark-to-marketmark‑to‑market election in respect of its indirect ownership interest in that lower-tierlower‑tier PFIC.  Consequently, the PFIC rules could apply with respect to income of a lower-tierlower‑tier PFIC, the value of which would already have been taken into account indirectly via mark-to-marketmark‑to‑market adjustments in respect of common shares or ADSs.

A U.S. holder that owns common shares or ADSs during any taxable year that we are treated as a PFIC generally would be required to file IRS Form 8621.  U.S. holders should also be aware that8621, including in order to comply with a recently enacted legislation may broaden the current IRS Form 8621 filing requirement or impose anadded additional annual filing requirement for U.S. persons owning shares of a PFIC.  The legislation does not describe what information would be required to be included in either situation, but grants the Secretary of the U.S. Treasury Department power to make this determination.  U.S. holders should consult their independent tax advisors regarding the application of the PFIC rules to common shares or ADSs, the availability and advisability of making an election to avoid the adverse tax consequences of the PFIC rules should we be considered a PFIC for any taxable year and the application of the recently-enacted legislationreporting requirements that may apply to their particular situation.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Dividends paid on, and proceeds from the sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of, common shares or ADSs to a U.S. holder generally may be subject to the information reporting requirements of the Code and may be subject to backup withholding of U.S. federal income tax (currently at a rate of 28.0%)   unless the U.S. holder (i) provides an accurate taxpayer identification number and certifies that it is a U.S. person and that no loss of exemption from backup withholding has occurred or (ii) establishes that it is an exempt recipient.  The amount of any backup withholding collected from a payment to a U.S. holder will be allowed as a credit against the U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle the U.S. holder to a refund, provided that certain required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

In addition, U.S. holders should be aware that recently-enacted legislation imposes newadditional reporting requirements apply with respect to the holding of certain foreign financial assets, including stock of foreign issuers which is not held in an account maintained by certain financial institutions, if the aggregate value of all such assets exceeds US$50,000.  U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the application of the information reporting rules to common shares or ADSs and the application of the recently-enacted legislationforeign financial asset rules to their particular situations.

Non‑U.S. holders generally will not be subject to information reporting and backup withholding tax, but may be required to comply with certain certification and identification procedures in order to establish their eligibility for such exemption.

ITEM 11.                    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures aboutAbout Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk from changes in both foreign currency exchange rates and rates of interest and indexation.  We have foreign exchange rate risk with respect to our debt denominated in U.S. dollars.  We are subject to market risk deriving from changes in rates which affect the cost of our financing.


Table of Contents

Exchange Rate Risk

At December 31, 2011,2013, approximately 12.9%11.8% of our indebtedness were denominated in U.S. dollars.  Also at December 31, 2011,2013, we had swap agreements that offset the exchange rate risk with respect to R$1,7892,067 million of those amounts.  As our net exposure is an asset since the swap has higher balances than the liability, our exchange rate risk is associated with the risk of a drop in the value of the U.S. dollar.  The potential loss to us that would result from a hypothetical unfavorablefavorable 50.0% change in foreign currency exchange rates (an expected scenario provided by the BM&FBOVESPA), after giving effect to the swaps, would be approximately R$13.50.8 million, primarily due to the increase, in Brazilianreais,  in the principal amount of our foreign currency indebtedness.  The total increase in our foreign currency indebtedness would be reflected as an expense in our income statement.  For further information on other scenarios, please see note 34.c.1 to our consolidated financial statements.

Risk of Index Variation

We have indebtedness and financial assets that are denominated inreaisand that bear interest at variable rates or, in some cases, are fixed.  We also have swaps that convert some U.S. dollar-denominated indebtedness toreais at variable interest rates.  The interest or indexation rates include several different Brazilian money-marketmoney‑market rates and inflation rates.  At December 31, 2011,2013, the amount of such liabilities, net of such assets and after giving effect to swaps, was R$9,64910,662 million.  Further information for other scenario, please see note 34.c.2 to our consolidated financial statements.

A hypothetical, instantaneous and unfavorable change of 100 basis points25% in rates applicable to floating rate financial assets and liabilities held at December 31, 2011,2013, would result in a net additional cash outflow of approximately R$96400 million.  This sensitivity analysis is based on the assumption of an unfavorable 100 basis point25% movement of the interest rates applicable to each homogeneous category of financial assets and liabilities.liabilities (an expected scenarioavailable in the Market).  A homogeneous category is defined according to the currency in which financial assets and liabilities are denominated and assumes the same interest rate movement within each homogeneous category (e.g., U.S. dollars).  As a result, our interest rate risk sensitivity model may overstate the impact of interest rate fluctuations for such financial instruments asconsistently unfavorable movements of all interest rates are unlikely.

Reimbursement of Fees and Direct and Indirect Payments by the Depositary

The depositary collects its fees for delivery and surrender of ADSs directly from investors depositing shares or surrendering ADSs for the purpose of withdrawal or from intermediaries acting for them.  The depositary collects fees for making distributions to investors by deducting those fees from the amounts distributed or by selling a portion of distributable property to pay the fees.  The depositary may collect its annual fee for depositary services by deduction from cash distributions or by directly billing investors or by charging the book-entrybook‑entry system accounts of participants acting for them.  The depositary may generally refuse to provide fee-attractingfee‑attracting services until its fees for those services are paid.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our managementManagement is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting.  Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:  (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions arerecorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our managementManagement and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Table of Contents

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our managementManagement has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 20112013 based on the criteria established in “Internal Control — Control—Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, (“COSO”)or COSO in 1992.  Based on such assessment and criteria, our managementManagement has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2011.2013. There are no changes in business process that could have a relevant impact on our December 31, 2013 financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of CPFL Energia S.A. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2013, based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company's board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011 has been audited2013, based on the criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (1992) issued by KPMG Auditores Independentes, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report included on page 117the Committee of this report. 

In January 2011, we implemented a new versionSponsoring Organizations of the ERP system, the SAP ECC 6.0.  Treadway Commission.

After a series of planned restructurings, CPFL Geração and CPFL Brasil have joined the shareholders of ERSA, as majority shareholders, resulting in the creation of CPFL Energias Renováveis S.A.

The objective of the association was to consolidate the experience of both groups in the renewable generation sources sector, thereby obtaining synergies by combining their operations and an improved structure for developing their business.

On June 21 and November 1st, 2011, in Resolution 2,967/2011 and 3,182/2011, published in the Official Gazette of the Federal Executive – DOU, ANEEL authorized the restructuring which involved the following four stages for the CPFL Group companies involved in the project:

Stage 1:  Transfer of CPFL Geração's small hydroelectric power plants - SHPs to the following SPCs (Special Purpose Companies) controlled by CPFL Geração:  MOHINI Empreendimentos e Participações Ltda. – “Mohini”; JAYADITYA Empreendimentos e Participações Ltda – “Jayaditya”; and CHIMAY Empreendimentos e Participações Ltda. – “Chimay”.  This stage was approved on July 18, 2011 by the subsidiaries CPFL Geração, CPFL Brasil and SMITA;

Stage 2:  Increase of the capital of Smita Empreendimentos e Participações S.A.

Stage 3:  Merger(iii) commercialization of SMITA by ERSA, whereby CPFLGeração and CPFL Brasil became shareholders in that company, which took the name of CPFL Energias Renováveis S.A. This stage wasapproved on August 24, 2011 and CPFL Energia now indirectly holds 54.50% ofelectric energy. At December 31, 2013, CPFL Renováveis through its subsidiaries CPFL Geração (43.65%) and CPFL Brasil (10.85%). Consequently, CPFL Renováveis has been consolidated in the CPFL Energia’s consolidated financial statements since August 1, 2011.

presented.

3.1 Service concession arrangements:Concession agreements

IFRIC 12 “Concession Agreements”– Concession Agreements establishes general guidelines for the recognition and measurement of obligations and rights related to concession arrangementsagreements and applies to situations in which the granting power controls or regulates which services the concessionaire should provide with the infrastructure, to whom the services should be provided and at what price, and controls any significant residual interest in the infrastructure at the end of the concession period.

TheseConsidering that these definitions havinghave been attended, to, the infrastructure of distribution concessionaires is segregated and moved forward fromat the time of construction complyingin accordance with the provisions of the of the IFRS standards, so that in the financial statements recordare recorded (i) an intangible asset corresponding to the right to operate the concession and collect from the users of public utilities, and (ii) a financial asset corresponding to the unconditional contractual right to receive cash (compensation)(indemnity) by transferring control of the assets to the grantor at the end of the concession.concession to the Grantor.          

The value of the concession financial assets of the concession is determined at fair value, based on the remuneration of the concession assets, as established by the regulatory authority.Grantor. The financial asset is classified as available-for-sale and after initial recognition is restated and amortized annuallyremeasured in accordance with changes in the adjustment of its fair value,estimated cash flows, against Other Comprehensive Income – Financial Instrumentsfinance income or expense in equity.profit or loss for the year.

The remaining amount is registered inrecorded as intangible assets and correspondsrelates to the right to charge consumers for electric energy distribution services, and is amortized in accordance with the consumption pattern that reflects the estimated economic benefit to the end of the concession.

ProvisionServices related to the construction of infrastructure construction services is registeredare recorded in accordance with IAS 11 – Construction Contracts, against a financial asset corresponding to the amount subject to compensation.right to receive cash (indemnity). Residual amounts are classified as intangible assets and will beare amortized over the term of the concession period in accordance withproportion to a curve that reflects the consumption pattern in relation to the economic pattern against which the revenue from consumption of electric energy is collected.benefits.

BecauseConsidering that (i) the tariff model that does not provide for a profit margin for the infrastructure construction activity,services, (ii) the way in which the subsidiaries manage  building the buildinginfrastructure by using a high level of outsourcing, and (iii) the fact that there is no provision for gainsprofit margin on construction in the Company‘s business plans, managementManagement is of the opinion that the margins on this operation are irrelevant, and therefore no additional valuemark-up to the cost is considered in the composition of the revenue. The revenue and construction costs are therefore presented in profit or loss for the year at the same amounts.

 

3.2 Financial instruments:instruments

- Financial assets:assets

Financial assets are recognized initially on the date that they are originated or on trade date at which the Company or its subsidiaries become one of the parties to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Derecognition of a financial asset occurs when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or when the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred. The Company and its subsidiaries hold the following main financial assets:

 i.      Classified at fairFair value through profit or loss: these are assets held for trading or designated as such upon initial recognition. The Company and its subsidiaries manage such assets and make purchase and sale decisions based on their fair value in accordance with their documented risk management and/or investment strategy. These financial assets are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognized in profit or loss for the year.

The main financial assets classified by the Company and its subsidiaries in this category are: (i) bank balances and financial investments (Note 5), (ii) marketable securities (Note 7) and (iii) derivatives (Note 34.d).

ii.      Held-to-maturity: these are assets that the Company and its subsidiaries have the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity. Held-to-maturity financial assets are recognized initially at fairvalue and subsequent to initial recognition aresubsequently measured at recognizedamortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.

F - 1316


Table of Contents

 

The Company and its subsidiaries classified in this category: (i) the security receivable from CESP and (ii) the short-term financial investments required by financing contracts of the indirect subsidiary CPFL Renováveis (Note 7).

iii.      Loans and receivables: these are assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Such assets are recognized initially at fair value and subsequent to initial recognition,subsequently  measured at recognizedamortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.

The main financial assets of the Company and its subsidiaries classified in this category are: (i) consumers, concessionaires and licensees (Note 6), and (ii) other credits (Note 12).

iv.      Available-for-sale: these are non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale or that are not classified in any of the previous categories. Subsequent to initial recognition, interest calculated byusing the effective rateinterest method is recognized in profit or loss as part of the net operatingfinancial income. Changes for recognition atto fair value of these financial assets are recognized in the revaluation reserve in equity.other comprehensive income. The accumulated result in the other comprehensive income is transferred to profit or loss when the asset is realized.

The main asset of the Company and its subsidiaries classified in this category isthe financial assets the concession which comprises the right tofor compensation at the end of the concession. The designation of this instrument as available-for-sale is due to its non-classification in the previous categories described. Since Management believes that the compensation will be made at least in accordance with the current tariff pricing model, this instrument cannot be recorded as loans and receivables as the compensation is not fixed or determinable, due to the uncertainty in relation to impairment for reasons other than deterioration of the credit. The main uncertainties relate to the risk of non-recognition of part of these assets by the regulatory authority and their respective replacement values at the end of the concession.concession by the Grantor.

 

- Financial liabilities:liabilities

 i.      Measured at fair value through profit or loss: these are financial liabilities that are: (i) held for short-term trading, (ii) designated at fair value in order to evaluatematch the effects of recognition of income and expenses to obtain more relevant and consistent accounting information, or (iii) derivatives. These liabilities are registeredrecorded at fair value and for any change in the subsequent measurement of thetheir fair value set throughis subsequently recorded in profit or loss.

The Company and its subsidiaries classified the followingii.Other financial liabilities in this category: (i) certain foreign currency debts (Note 17) and (ii) derivatives (Note 34).

ii.Not(not measured at fair value through profit or loss:loss): these are other financial liabilities that are not classified in any of the previous categories.category.

Such warrantiesfinancial guarantees are initially measured at fair value, by recording (i) a liability corresponding to the risk assumed of non-payment of the debt, which is amortized against financial income simultaneously and in proportion with amortization of the debt, and (ii) an asset equivalent to the right to compensation by the guaranteed party or a prepaid expense under the warranties,guarantees, which is amortized by receipt of cash from other shareholders or on a straight-line basis against financial expenseat the effective interest rate over the term of the warranty.guarantee.

3.3 Lease agreements:

The Company establishes atAt the inception of an agreement is determined whether such arrangement is or contains a lease. A specific asset is the subject of a lease if fulfillment of the arrangement is dependent on the use of that specified asset. An arrangement conveys the right to use the asset if the arrangement conveys to the lessor the right to control the use of the underlying asset.

Leases in which substantially all the risks and rewards are with thelessor are classified as operating leases. Payments/receipts made under operating leases are recognized as expense/revenue in profit or loss on a straight-line basis, over the term of the lease.

Leases which involve not only the right to use assets, but also substantially transfer the risks and rewards to the lessee, are classified as finance leases.

In finance leases in which the Company or its subsidiaries act as lessee, the assets are capitalized to property, plant and equipment at the inceptioncommencement of the agreementlease against a liability measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum future lease payments. The property,Property, plant and equipment isare depreciated in accordance withover the accounting policy applicable to that asset.shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term.

If the Company or its subsidiaries are the lessor in a finance lease, the investment is initially recognized at the construction/acquisition cost of the asset.

In both cases, the financial income/expense is recognized in profit or loss over the term of the lease so as to produce a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the investment/liability.

 

3.4 Property, plant and equipment

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at acquisition, construction or formation cost less accumulated depreciation and, if applicable, accumulated impairment losses. Cost also includes any other costs attributable to bringing the assets to the place and in a condition to operate as intended by management,Management, the cost of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located and capitalized borrowing costs on qualifying assets.

The assets were measured at the transition date (January 1, 2009) in accordance with the IFRS rules by segregation into two groups:

- Assets measured at deemed cost at the transition date: model adopted for assets built and put into long-term service when it is not possible to reconstruct the cost formation or where the cost of the survey is of no benefit in presentation of the financial statements. The cost of these items at the transition date was therefore determined in accordance with market prices (“deemed cost”) and the revalued amounts are presented for both cost and accumulated depreciation. The effects of the deemed cost increased property, plant and equipment against equity, net of related tax effects.

- Assets measured at historic cost: model adopted by the Company for recently built assets where the basis for cost formation can be easily confirmed and the values at historic cost approximate the respective market values. In such cases, the subsidiaries performed an analysis to ensure that the cost formation is in accordance with current accounting practices.

The replacement cost of items of property, plant and equipment is recognized if it is probable that it will involve economic rewardsbenefits for the subsidiaries and if the cost can be reliably measured, and the value of the replaced item is written off. Maintenance costs are recognized in profit or loss as they are incurred.

Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis, at annual rates of 2% to 20%, taking into consideration the estimated useful life of the assets, as instructed and defined by the regulatory authority. In the case of generators subject to regulation by Decree 2003, of 1996 (the subsidiary CERAN and the jointly-controlled subsidiaries ENERCAN, BAESA and Foz do Chapecó), the assets are depreciated at the rates established by the regulatory authority, provided they do not exceed the term of the concession.Grantor.

Gains and losses derived from disposalwrite off of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the resources produced by disposal with the carrying amount of the asset, and are recognized net together with other operating income/expense.

Assets and facilities used in the regulated activities are tied to these services and may not be removed, disposed of, assigned or pledged in mortgage without the prior and express authorization of ANEEL. ANEEL regulates the release of Public Electric Energy Utility concession assets, granting prior authorization for release of assets of no use to the concession,  intended for disposal andbut determines that the proceeds of the disposal be deposited in a tied bank account for use in theconcession. 

 

3.5 Intangible assets

Includes rights related to non-physical assets such as goodwill and concession explorationexploitation rights, software and rights-of-way.

Goodwill that arises on the acquisition of subsidiaries is measured at the difference between the amount paid and/or payable for acquisition of a business and the net fair value of the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary acquired.

F -18


Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill and other intangible assets, if any, with indefinite useful lives are not subject to amortization and are tested annually for impairment.

Negative goodwill are registeredis recorded as gainsgain in profit or loss at the timeincome statement in the year of the business acquisition.

Intangible assets corresponding to the right to operate concessions canmay have three separate origins, based on the following arguments:as follows:

 i.      Acquisitions through business combinations: the portion of goodwill arising from business combinations that correspondedcorresponds to the right to operate the concession is stated as an intangible asset. Such amounts are amortized over the remaining term of the concessions, on a straight-line basis or based on the net income curves projected for the concessionaires, for the remaining term of the concession.as applicable.

 

ii.      Investments in infrastructure (Application of IFRIC 12 – Service concession arrangements)Concession agreements): Underunder the electric energy distribution concession arrangementsagreements with the subsidiaries, the intangible asset registeredrecorded corresponds to the concessionaires' right to collection usescharge the consumers for use of the concession infrastructure. Since the explorationexploitation term is defined in the agreement, intangible assets with defined useful lives are amortized over the term of the concession in proportion to a curve that reflects the consumption pattern in relation to the anticipated economic rewards.benefits. For further information see Notenote 3.1.

Components of theThe infrastructure components are directly tied to the Company’s operationsCompany's operation and may not be removed, disposed of, assigned or pledged in mortgage without the prior and express authorization of ANEEL.

iii.       Public utilities: upon certain generation concessions were granted against paymentthe concessionaires assumed an obligation to pay the federal government for use of a public utility. This obligation was registered onassets. On the signing date of signing the respective agreements at present value, against the Company’s subsidiaries recoded intangible assets account. These amounts,and the corresponding liabilities at fair value. The intangible assets, capitalized by interest incurred on the obligation tountil the start-update,start-up date, are amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of theeach concession.   

 

3.6 Impairment

- Financial assets:

A financial asset not measured at fair value through profit or loss is reassessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired.  Impairment can occur after the initial recognition of the asset and have a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows.

The Company and its subsidiaries consider evidence of impairment of receivables and held-to-maturity investment securities for both specific assetsasset and at a collective level for all significant securities. Receivables and held-to-maturity investment securities that are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment by grouping together the securities with similar risk characteristics.

In assessing collective impairment the Company uses historical trends of the probability of default, timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, adjusted for management's judgment as to whether the assumptions and current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual losses are likely to be greaterhigher or lesslower than suggested by historic trends.

An impairment loss of a financial asset is recognized as follows:

·      Amortized cost: as the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the assetsasset’s original effective interest rate. Losses are recognized in profit or loss and reflectedshown in an allowance account against receivables. Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognized through the unwinding of the discount. When a subsequent event indicates that the amount of impairment loss has decreased, this reduction isreversed to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversedcredit through profit or loss.

F -19


·      Available-for-sale: byas the difference between the acquisition cost, net of any principal repayment and amortization of the principal, and the current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognized in profit or loss. Losses are recognized in profit or loss.

IfIn the case of financial assets recorded at amortized cost and/or debt instruments classified as available-for-sale, if an increase (gain) is identified in periods subsequent to recognition of the loss, thenperiods, the impairment loss is reversed with the amount of the reversal recognized inthrough profit or loss. However, any subsequent recovery in the fair value of an impaired equity instrument classified as available-for-sale financial asset is recognized in Other Comprehensive Income in equity.other comprehensive income.

- Non-financial assets:assets

Non-financial assets that have indefinite useful lives, such as goodwill, are tested annually for impairment to check thatassess whether the asset's carrying amount does not exceed theits recoverable value. Other assets subject to amortization are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount may be impaired.

An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated recoverable amount, which is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell.

The methods used to assess impairment include tests based on the asset's value in use. In such cases, the assets (e.g. goodwill, and intangible assets of concession)concession asset) are segregated and grouped together at the lowest level that generates identifiable cash flowsinflows (the "cash generating unit", or CGU). If there is an indication of impairment, the loss is recognized in profit or loss. Except in the case of goodwill where the lossimpairment which cannot be reversed in the subsequent period, impairment losses are assessedreassessed annually for any possibility to reverse the impairment.

Goodwill included in the carrying amount of an investment in an associate, as it is not recognized individually, is tested with the investment, as if it were a single asset.reversals.

3.7 Provisions

A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, there is a legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation. IfWhen applicable, provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flowsoutflows at a rate that reflects current market assessment and the risks specific to the liability.

 

3.8 Employee benefits

TheCertain subsidiaries have post-employment benefits andincluding pension plans, recognized by the accrual method in accordance with IAS 19 “Employee benefits” (as revised 2011), and are regarded as sponsors of these plans.plans (note 2.8). Although the plans have particularities, they have the following characteristics:

 i.      Defined distributioncontribution plan: a post-employment benefit plan under which the CompanySponsor pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no liability for the actuarial deficits of thisthe plan. The obligations are recognized as an expense in profit or loss in the periods during which the services are rendered.

ii.      Defined benefit plan: The net obligation is calculated as the difference between the present value of the actuarial obligation based on assumptions, biometric studies and interest rates in line with market rates, and the fair value of the plan assets as of the reporting date. The actuarial liability is calculated annually by independent actuaries, under the responsibility of Management, using the projected unit credit method. The subsidiaries use the corridor method to avoid fluctuations in the macroeconomic conditions distorting the profit or loss for the period. The accumulated differences between the actuarial estimates and the actual results are therefore not recognized in the financial statements unless they are in excess of 10% of the greater of the plan liabilities and assets. UnrecognizedActuarial gains and losses in excess of this limit are recognized in Other Comprehensive Income when they occur. Net Interest (income and expense) are calculated by applying the discount rate in the beginning of the period to the plan net liability or asset and the defined benefit obligation. When applicable, the cost of past services is recorded immediately in profit or loss for the year over the estimated remaining service time of the employees. loss.

If the plan records a surplus and it becomes necessary to recognize an asset, recognition is limited to the total of any unrecognized past service costs and the present value of futureeconomic benefits available in the form of reimbursements or future reductions in contributions to the plan.

3.9 Joint ventures

Until December 31, 2012, the Company consolidated joint ventures  proportionally. Since January 1, 2013, due to adoption of IFRS 11 - Joint Arrangements, the Company no longer consolidates proportionally ENERCAN, BAESA, Chapecoense and EPASA, for which the Company’s interests on these entities are accounted for using the equity method of accounting, which is the Company’s new accounting policy to record joint ventures. The company applied this new standard retrospectively for all periods presented.

The effects of adoption of this pronouncement are shown in note 2.8.

3.10 Dividends and Interest on shareholders’ equity

Under Brazilian law, the Company is required to distribute a mandatory minimum annual dividend of 25% of net income adjusted in accordance with the Company´s bylaws. According to international accounting practices, IAS 10 a provision may only be made for the minimum mandatory dividend, and dividends declared but not yet approved are only recognized as a liability in the financial statements after approval by the competent body. They will therefore be held in equity, in the “additional dividend proposed” account, as they do not meet the criteria of present liability criteria at the reporting date.

As established in the Company's bylaws and in accordance with current Corporate law, the Board of Directors is responsible for declaring an interim dividendsdividend and interestInterest on shareholders’ equity determined in a half-yearly balance sheet. Interim dividends declaredAn interim dividend and interest on shareholders´shareholders’ equity declared at the base date of June 30 areis only recognizedrecorded as a liability in the Company's financial statement after the date of the Board's decision.

In accordance with this accounting practice, interestInterest on shareholders’shareholders' equity is no longer showntreated in the statement of incomesame way as dividends and the effects are onlyis also stated in changes in shareholders’ equity. Withholding tax on interest on shareholders' equity and inis debited against shareholders’ equity when proposed by Management, as it fulfills the effective income tax and social contribution rates.obligation criteria at that time.

 

3.103.11 Revenue recognition

Operating income in the course of ordinary activities of the subsidiaries is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Operating revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence exists that the most significant risks and rewards have been transferred to the buyer, when it is probable that the financial and economic rewards will flow to the entity, that the associated costs can be reliably estimated, and the amount of the operating income can be reliably measured.

Historically, the difference between the unbilled revenue and the actual consumption, which is recognized in the subsequent month, has not been material. Revenue from energy generation sales is accounted for based on the assured energy and at tariffs specified in the terms of the contract or the current market price, as applicable. Energy commercialization revenue is accounted for based on bilateral contracts with market agents and duly registered with the Electric Energy Commercialization Chamber - CCEE.

3.133.14 Regulatory assets and liabilities

In accordance with the interpretation of IASB/IFRIC, regulatory assets and liabilities cannot be recognized in the financial statements of the distribution subsidiaries, as they do not meet the requirements for assets and liabilities described in the Framework for the Preparation and Presentation of Financial Statements. The rights or offsetting are therefore only reflected in the financial statements, toafter they have been recognized in the extent thatenergy tariffs, based on the tariff reviews and/or adjustments made conducted by the Grantor and on consumption of electric energy is consumed by the captive customers.consumers.

 

3.143.15 Government grants – CDE (Energy Development Account)

Government grants are only recognized when it is reasonably certain that the amounts will be received by the Company. They are recorded in profit or loss for the periods in which the Company recognizes as income the discounts granted in relation to the low-income subsidy and other tariff discounts and as expense the costs of hydrological risk, involuntary exposure and ESS charges.

The subsidies received through funds from the CDE (Notes 26.3 and 27.1) have the main purpose to  to offset discounts granted and expenses already incurred in order to provide immediate financial assistance to the distribution companies, in accordance with IAS 20.

3.16 New standards and interpretations adopted

A number of IASB standards were issued or revised in 2013 and are mandatory for accounting periods beginning on January 1, 2013:

F -22


a)Amendments to IFRS 7 - Disclosures - Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

The amendments to IFRS 7 require an entity to disclose information about rights of offset and related arrangements for financial instruments under an enforceable master netting agreement or similar arrangement.

The Company first applied these amendments, retrospectively, in the current financial year.  However, as the Company and its subsidiaries are not party of any offset agreement, the application of the amendments had no significant impact on the disclosures or on the amounts recognized in the financial statements.

b)New and revised standards on consolidation, joint arrangements, associates and disclosures (IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12).

In the current financial year, the Company adopted the above-mentioned standards, except for IAS 27 (as amended in 2011), as it only refers to separate financial statements (not applicable for the Company and its subsidiaries).

·IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements

IFRS 10 replaces the parts of IAS 27 related to consolidated financial statements and SIC 12 Consolidation — Special Purpose Entities. IFRS 10 changes the definition of control so that an investor has control over an investee if it (i) has power over the investee, (ii) is exposed or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and (iii) has ability to affect the amount those returns through its power over the investee. An investor must possess all of the above elements to control an investee.

Previously, control was defined as the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. Management has analyzed these new concepts and concluded that they have no impact on its financial statements, so that those companies that were previously considered as subsidiaries, associate or jointly controlled entities continued to be classified in the same way after IFRS 10.

·IFRS 11 - Joint arrangements

Previously, IAS 31 covered three types of joint arrangements - jointly controlled entities, jointly controlled operations and jointly controlled assets.

IFRS 11 classifies joint arrangements into two types - joint operations and joint ventures.  Classification is based on the rights and obligations of the parties in relation to the arrangements, taking into account the structure, legal form and contractual terms of the arrangement and other relevant facts and circumstances.  Investments in joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method and proportional consolidation is no longer permitted. Investments in jointly controlled operations are accounted for in such a way that each operator recognizes its assets, liabilities, income and expense.

Company management assessed the classification of the investments of Enercan, Baesa, Chapecoense and Epasa in accordance with IFRS 11 and concluded that all these investments, previously classified as jointly controlled entities under IAS 31 and consequently accounted for using the proportional consolidation method, should now be classified under IFRS 11 as joint  venture and accounted for using the equity method of accounting.

The change in the method of accounting for these investments was applied in accordance with the relevant transition provisions specified in IFRS 11 and the comparative amounts were restated to reflect the change in the accounting for the investments (note 2.8).

·IFRS 12 - Disclosure of interests in other entities

IFRS 12 is a new standard on disclosure applicable to entities with interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and/or unconsolidated structured entities. In general, application of IFRS 12 resulted in more extensive disclosures in the consolidated financial statements (for further details, see notes 2.5 and 24.6).

F -23


c)  IFRS 13 - Fair Value Measurement  

This pronouncement establishes a single framework for measuring fair value and disclosures about fair value measurement. It has a wide scope and applies to financial and non-financial instruments in cases where other IFRS standards require or permit measurement of fair value and disclosure of such measurement, except under certain circumstances.

IFRS 13 provides a new definition of fair value, defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in a transaction in the principal market or another more advantageous market at the measurement date, under current market conditions, irrespective of whether this price is directly observable or estimated by another valuation technique. Application is required prospectively from January 1, 2013.

The standard also requires wide-ranging disclosures about fair value measurement.  For instance, quantitative and qualitative disclosures are required based on the fair value hierarchy for all assets and liabilities measured at fair value, or for which the fair value has been disclosed in the financial statements.  Comparative information need not be disclosed for periods before initial application. The Company's assessment is that application of the standard has had no relevant impact.

d)Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income

The requirements include the requirement to group other comprehensive income in two categories:

a)items that will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss; and  

b)items that will be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met.

The requirements have been applied retrospectively and the presentation of items of other comprehensive income has therefore been amended to reflect these changes. Application of the amendments to IAS 1 has not resulted in any impact on profit or loss, other comprehensive income and total comprehensive income.

e) Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of the Financial Statements (clarification of the requirements for presenting comparative information)

The Annual Improvements to IFRS 2009 - 2011 gave rise to various amendments to IFRS.  The most relevant for the Company were those related to presentation of the balance sheet at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented and the related supporting notes. The amendments specify that a third column of the balance sheet shall be presented when: (a) an entity applies an accounting policy retrospectively or makes a retrospective restatement or reclassification of items in the financial statements; and (b) the retrospective application, restatement or reclassification has a material effect on the information in the third column of the balance sheet. It is not necessary to present the supporting notes for the amounts in the third balance sheet.

As mentioned in note 2.8, the financial statements for 2012 and 2011 are being represented, in accordance with IAS 1.

f)IAS 19 Employee Benefits (as revised in 2011)

In the current year and applied retrospectively, the Company applied IAS 19 (as revised in 2011), for the first time. This amendment changes the accounting for defined benefit plans and termination benefits.

The main changes require recognition of any changes in defined benefit obligations and the fair value of plan assets, and thus eliminate the corridor approach, permitted under the previous version of IAS 19, and accelerate recognition of past service costs. All actuarial gains and losses are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income so that the net pension plan asset or defined benefit obligation reflects the full amount of the plan deficit or surplus. Additionally, interest cost and expected returns on plan assets used in the previous version of IAS 19 arereplaced by recording an amount for "net interest" in accordance with IAS 19 (as revised in 2011), which is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net amount of the defined benefit obligation or plan assets. Furthermore, IAS 19 (as revised in 2011) introduced certain changes in presentation of the defined benefit cost, including more extensive disclosures, such as the sensitivity to significant actuarial assumptions.

In accordance with IAS 1 and IAS 8, the Company adjusted the corridor in January 1, 2012 in Retained Earnings. The Company applied the relevant transition provisions and restated the comparative amounts retrospectively, , for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, as mentioned in note 2.8.

3.17 New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

CertainA number of new IFRS standards and amendments to the IFRS standards and interpretations were issued by the IASB and had not yet effectivecome into effect for the year ended December 31, 2011, are listed below:

F - 19


Table of Contents

·IAS 1 Financial Statement Presentation2013. Consequently, the Company has not adopted them for the year ended December 31, 2013:

·a)IAS 12 – Income Taxes

·IAS 19 Employee Benefits

·IAS 27 – Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements

·IAS 28 – Investments in Associates

·IFRS 7 – Financial Instruments: Disclosures

·IFRS 9 Financial Instruments

·IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements

·IFRS 11 Joint ArrangementsEstablished new requirements for classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities. Financial assets are classified in two categories: (i) measured at fair value at initial recognition; and (ii) measured at amortized cost, based on the business model under which they are held and the characteristics of the contractual cash flows.

·IFRS 12 DisclosureWith regard to financial liabilities, the main change comparing to the requirements of InterestsIAS 39 is that any change in Other Entities

·IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement

fair value of a financial liability designated at fair value through profit or loss attributable to changes in the liability's credit risk to be stated in other comprehensive income and not profit or loss, unless such recognition results in incompatibility in profit or loss.

The Company is analyzingadoption was tentatively established for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015, but due to the impactimpairment project phase of IFRS 9 has not yet been completed, the IASB decided that this date would not allow entities sufficient time to prepare for application of the standard. The new date will be set when IFRS 9 nears completion.

In relation to changes in financial assets, the distribution subsidiaries have relevant assets classified as available-for-sale, in accordance with the current requirements of IAS 39. These assets represent the right for compensation at the end of the subsidiaries' concession terms. These instruments are designated as available-for-sale due to their non-classification in any of other three categories established by IAS 39 (loans and receivables, fair value through profit or loss and held-to-maturity).

If these instruments were classified in accordance with the new concepts of fair value or amortized cost, they would be designated and measured at "fair value through profit or loss".  These financial assets correspond to the amount of compensation at the end of the concession, and therefore fall into this category.

Based on a preliminary evaluation of initial adoption of these new standardschanges, the Company estimates that there will be no relevant impacts on its financial statements.

 

b)Amendments to IAS 32 - Offsetting of Financial Assets and Liabilities

The amendments to IAS 32 clarify the requirements for offsetting (reconciliation of accounts) of financial assets and financial liabilities and address inconsistencies in the current policy for application of the offsetting criteria. The amendments clarify the meaning of "currently has a legal right of set-off" and "simultaneous realization and settlement".

The amendments to IAS 32 are required retrospectively for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014.

Based on a preliminary analysis, the Company does not expect relevant impacts on its financial statements.

 

F -25


c)Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 27, Investment Entities 

The amendments to IFRS 10 define an investment entity and require an entity that reports and falls into this category not to consolidate its subsidiaries, but to measure them at fair value through profit or loss. To classify as an investment entity, an entity shall: (i) obtains funds from one or more investors for the purpose of providing those investor(s) with investment management services; (ii) commits to its investor(s) that its business purpose is to invest funds solely for returns from capital appreciation, investment income, or both; and (iii) measures and evaluates the performance of substantially all of its investments on a fair value basis.

Changes were consequently made to IFRS 12 and IAS 27 to introduce new disclosure requirements for investment entities.

Based on a preliminary analysis, the Company does not expect relevant impacts on its financial statements.

d)IFRIC 21 - Levies

This interpretation addresses accounting for liabilities for levies if the liability is within the scope of IAS 37. It also addresses accounting for a levy liability for which the amount and term are known.

Adoption is required for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2014. Based on a preliminary analysis, the Company does not anticipate relevant impacts on its financial statements.

e)Addendum to IAS 19 - Defined Benefit Plans Employee contributions

These amendments apply to employees or third-party contributions to the defined benefit plans. The objective of the amendments is to simplify accounting for contributions that do not relate to the years of service of the employee, e.g. employee contributions that are calculated in accordance with a fixed percentage of the salary. These amendments are effective from July 1, 2014. Based on a preliminary analysis, the Company does not expect relevant impacts on its financial statements.

f)Amendments to IAS 36 - Recoverable amount disclosures for non-financial assets

The amendments to IAS 36 address the disclosure of information about the recoverable amount of assets if based on fair value less costs of disposal.

Retrospective application of the amendments is required for annual periods beginning after January 1, 2014.

Based on a preliminary analysis, the Company does not expect relevant impacts on its financial statements.

( 4 )   DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUES


A number of the Group’sCompany’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and / or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.

Accordingly, the Company measures fair value in accordance with IFRS 13, which define fair value as an estimate of the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, under current market conditions. 

F -26


- Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets

The fair value of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets recognized as a result of a business combination is based on market values. The marketfair value of property is the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of valuation between knowledgeable and willing parties under normal market conditions. The fair value of items of property, plant and equipment is based on the market approach and cost approaches using quoted market prices for similar items when available and replacement cost when appropriate. The fair values of intangible assets are calculated using quoted prices in an active market. Where there is no active market, the fair value will be what the Company would have paid for the intangible assets, on the acquisition date, in an arm’s length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties based on the best information available.

- Financial instruments

Financial instruments measured at fair values were recognizedvalued based on quoted prices in an active market, or, if such prices were not available, assessed using pricing models, applied individually for each transaction, taking into consideration the future payment flows, based on the conditions contracted, discounted to present value at market interest rate curves, based on information obtained, when available, from the BM&F, BOVESPA&FBOVESPA S.A – Bolsa de Valores, Mercadorias e Futuros (“BM&FBOVESPA”) and ANDIMA websites, when available.“Associação Brasileira das Entidades dos Mercados Financeiro e de Capitais – ANBIMA” (note 34).

Financial assets classified as available-for-sale refer to the right to compensation, to be paid by the Federal Government regarding the assets of the distribution concessionaires when the concession contract is over. The methodology adopted for marking these assets to market is based on the tariff review process for distributors. This review, conducted every four or five years according to each concessionaire, consists of revaluation at marketinvolves assessing the replacement price offor the distribution infrastructure.infrastructure, in accordance with criteria established by the Grantor. This valuation basis is used for pricing the tariff, which is increased annually up to the next tariff review, based on the parameter of the main inflation indices.

Although the methodology and criteriaProvisional Measure 579 of September 11, 2012, converted into Law nº 12783 on January 11, 2013, established that, for valuationconcession contracts that expire by 2017, calculation of the amount of compensation due on reversal of the assets will be based on the replacement value method, according to regulatory criteria to be established the Shareholders´Company whengranting authority. In the concession contract will get ended has not yet been defined by the Federal Government, company managementcase of concessions terms that expire after 2017, Management believes that, itas under Provisional Measure 579, compensation will be based at least on valuation of the tariff pricingassets using the new replacement value model.

Accordingly, at the time of the tariff review, each concessionaire adjusts the position of the financial asset base for compensation at the amounts ratified by the regulatory authorityGrantor and uses the General Market Price Index - IGP-M as best estimate for adjusting the original base to the fairvalue at subsequent dates, in conformityaccordance with the Tariff Reviewtariff review process.

In the consolidated financial statements, the figure for construction in progress refers mainly to works in progress of theoperating subsidiaries and/or those under development, in particular, the projects of CPFL Renováveis, which has construction in progress ofamounting to R$ 943,831.905,444.

 

The following are allocated in business combinations: i) the property, plant and equipment of ERSA, amounting to R$ 956,447, which has been consolidated in CPFL Renováveis since August 2011; and ii) the assets of Jantus and Santa Luzia, amounting to R$ 715,864 and R$ 237,307, respectively, which have been consolidated since December 2011.

As mentioned in item 3.4, assets not acquired recently were measured at deemed cost at the transition date, while the assets of recently-built plants are recognized at cost, which in Management’s opinion, approximates market value. Property, plant and equipment were valued at their market valuesbased on an appraisal carried out by an independent engineering company specializing in equity valuation. Added value of R$ 1,002,991 was determined at January 1, 2009 and recognized in the revaluation reserve in equity. The amortization of the value-added with an impact on the profit or loss for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, determined based on the remaining useful life of the assets, was R$ 37,481, R$ 39,605 and R$39,552.

In conformityaccordance with IAS 23, the interest on the loans and financing taken out by the projectssubsidiaries to finance the construction is capitalized during the construction phase. During 2011,2013 R$ 6,86148,339 was capitalized in the consolidated financial statements (R$ 84,83932,527 in 20102012 and R$56,106 6,861 in 2009)2011). For further details on interest capitalized see note 29.

In 2013, the subsidiary CPFL Renováveis completed the review of constructionthe property, plant and equipment control of the subsidiary Bons Ventos (“BVP”), and, as a result of this process, transferred the intangible assets and fund raising costs, see notes 1, 16reclassified buildings and 17.improvements to machinery and equipment, both stated in the line “transfers”. The reclassification had no effect on the depreciation expense, as the useful lives of the assets were adequate.

 

Depreciation expenses are registered in Statement of Income at “depreciation and amortization” (note 28).

At December 31, 2013, the total amount of fixed assets pledged as collateral for loans and financing, as mentioned in note 16, was approximately R$ 888,213, mainly relating to the subsidiary CPFL Renováveis (R$ 875,802).

Impairment testing: The Company evaluated in respect ofFor all the reporting periods for indicationsyears the Company evaluates whether there are indicators of devaluationimpairment of its assets that might involve the need forwould require an impairment tests.test. The evaluation was based on external and internal information sources, taking into account variations in interest rates, changes in market conditions and other factors.

The result of the assessment indicated no signs of impairment of these assets in any of the reporting periods and therefore no impairment losses were recognized.

For the other balances, the amortization rates for intangible assets acquired bythrough business combinations relate tocombination are based on the corporate restructuring of CPFL Renováveis (Note 14.4), as follows: (i) R$ 912,363 generated as a resultprojected income curves of the reverse acquisition; (ii) R$ 1,153,443 refers to business acquisitions by CPFL Renováveis since August 1, mainly in relation toconcessionaires for the acquisition of Jantus and Santa Luzia (R$ 1,115,815); and (iii) R$ 232,013 refers to existing balancesremainder of the acquiree at July 31, 2011. The subsidiary recognized the respective deferred tax effects on the intangible assets acquired in the line temporarily non-deductible differences (Note 9).

In conformity with IAS 23, the interest on the loans taken out by the subsidiaries is capitalized to qualifying intangible assets. During 2011, R$ 32,281 was capitalized in the consolidated financial statements (R$ 48,099 in 2010concession term, and R$28,825 in 2009) at a rate of 9.95% p.a.

The evaluation was based on external and internal information sources, taking into account variations in interest rates, changes in market conditions, the profitability of its operations and other factors.

The cash flows were prepared in accordance with management's assessment of future trends in the electricity sector, based on external sources and historical data.

14.4 Business combination (CPFL Renováveis)14.3Corporate restructuring CPFL Brasil and CPFL Geração

CPFL Renováveis was created by the merger of the former indirect subsidiary SMITA by ERSA, throughIn order to simplify the corporate restructuring described in Note 1.1, in accordance withstructure and centralize the terms and conditions established in the Merger Protocol signed by both companies and described in the Relevant Fact disclosedenergy generation operations on August 23, 2011.

As a result of this merger, the equity ofCPFLRenováveis increased by R$ 980,827, of which R$ 596,631 corresponds to the net equity of SMITA, determined at carrying value at July 31, 2011, and R$ 384,196 to the capital contribution made by the subsidiaries CPFL Geração and CPFL Brasil.

The ratio of substitution of ERSA shares to SMITA shares, for merger purposes, was based on the economic value of the business of ERSA and SMITA and was freely negotiated, agreed and confirmed between independent parties and adequately reflects the best assessment of both the entities.

ERSA issued 913,475,299 new common shares in the name of CPFL Geração and CPFL Brasil, which grant equal rights to those conferred by the common shares issued by ERSA in the past.

CPFL Energia began to hold indirectly 54.50% of CPFL Renováveis, having assumed control on August 1, 2011, since which date it has fully consolidated the subsidiary.

The association resulted in a business combination, as per IFRS 3, since the Company now controls CPFL Renováveis. The amount of the consideration transferred in this transaction was R$ 773,413. From an essentially accounting viewpoint, as it was the Company that acquired the control, although ERSA (accouting acquiree) is the merged company, this operation represented a reverse acquisition, and ERSA's net assets were therefore assessed at fair value. The evaluation report issued by specialists resulted in recording of value added in CPFL Renováveis attributed to the intangible concession asset of R$ 533,757 (note 14.1), net of deferred income tax and social contribution of R$ 378,606 (Note 9), set against the capital reserve in equity (Note 24).

On account of its corporate interest, the Company registered the amount of R$ 290,898 in Investments, set against the capital reserve in equity. The effects registered in the investments of the subsidiaries CPFL Geração and CPFL Brasil were R$ 232,975 and R$ 57,922, respectively, Also as a result of the business combination, considering the ratio of exchange of interests of the subsidiaries CPFL Geração and CPFL Brasil in CPFL Renováveis (taking into account the acquisition of the indirect subsidiary Jantus, Note 14.4.1), a decrease of R$60,957 was recognized in the capital  reserve recorded by the Company (an increase of R$ 179,384 for the subsidiary CPFL Geração, the assets and a reductionliabilities related to the investment previously held by CPFL Brasil in subsidiary CPFL Renováveis were spun-off incorporated by CPFL Geração. Consequently, as from January 1, 2013, the date base of R$ 240,341 forthe spin-off, the subsidiary CPFL Brasil). The net amount registered in the reserve as of December 31, 2011 as a result of the business combination was therefore R$229,940 (Note 24).

In relation to recognition of acquisition of CPFL Renováveis in the accounts of the subsidiaries CPFL Geração and CPFL Brasil, as these subsidiaries do not have operational control over CPFL Renováveis, and are therefore regarded as associated companies, holds directlythe following treatment was given for individual purposesentire interest in their respective financial statements: (i) in the case of CPFL Geração, a gain of R$ 412,359 was recognized in profit or loss, and (ii) CPFL Brasil recognized a gain of R$ 7,881 in profit or loss and goodwill of R$ 190,300. In the consolidated statements, since this operation refers to a transaction between owners (in their capacity as owners), these effects were adjusted for purposes of consolidation in CPFL Energia and recorded in equity

The impacts of the reverse acquisition described above, based on the balance sheets at August 1, 2011, are as follows:

As mentioned in note 2.8 and 3.8, the revision of IAS 19 eliminated the corridor approach (among other amendments), resulting in the need for recognition in full of the net actuarial liability at the date-base (actuarial report date). As a consequence of the adoption of IAS 19 (revised 2011) on January 1, 2012, the post-employment benefit liability previously recorded was reduced by R$ 105,964, against retained earnings. As described in note 3.16.f, an adjustment of R$185,715 was recorded as of January 1, 2011 in Retained Earnings.

In relation to the estimated contributions for 2014, the Company does not anticipate significant changes in comparison with 2013, unless the actuarial assessment identifies the need to amend the contribution amounts originally budgeted for the pension plans.

18.4 Recognition of income and expense of privatefor defined benefit pension fund:plans:

The external actuary’s estimate of the expense and/or revenue to be recognized in 2014 and the income/expense recognized in 2013, 2012 and the income recognized in 2011, and 2010 areis as follows:

Since the changes in the RGE plan indicate the need to recognize an asset, and the amount to be recognized is restricted to the present value of the economic rewards available at the time, recognition in 2012 will require analysis of the possibility of recovery of the asset at the end of the year.

The principalmain assumptions taken into consideration in the actuarial calculations atvaluations for the balance sheet date were:three years presented were as follow:

The allocation target for 20122014 was based on the recommendations for allocation of assets made at the end of 20112013 by Fundação CESP and ELETROCEEE, in its Investment Policy. This target may change at any time during 2012,2014, in the light of changes in the macroeconomic situation or in the return on assets, among other factors.

Fundação CESP’sThe asset management aims to maximize the return on investments, while seeking to minimize the risks of an actuarial deficit. Investments are therefore always made bearing in mind the liabilities that have to be honored. One of the main tools used by Fundação CESP to achieve its management objectives is ALM (Asset Liability Management – Joint Management of Assets and Liabilities), performed at least once a year, for a horizon ofmore than 10 years. ALM also assists in studying the liquidity of the pension plans, taking into consideration the benefit payment flow in relation to liquid assets. ELETROCEEE also uses ALM.

F -63


The basis for determining the assumptions of estimated general return on the assets is supported by ALM. The main assumptions are macroeconomic projections for calculating the anticipated long-term profitability, taking into account the current benefit plan portfolios. ALM processes the ideal average long-term allocation of the plan’splans’ assets and the estimated profitability in the long term is based on this allocation and on the assumptions of the assets’ profitability.

18.6 Sensitivity analysis

The significant actuarial assumptions for determining the defined benefit obligation are discount rate, anticipated salary increase and mortality. The following sensitivity analyses were based on reasonably possible changes in the assumptions at the end of the reporting period, with the other assumptions remaining constant.

The sensitivity analysis may not represent the actual change in the defined benefit liability, as it is improbable that the change would occur to isolated assumptions, as certain assumptions may be correlated.

Furthermore, in the presentation of the sensitivity analysis, the present value of the defined benefit obligation was calculated using the projected unit credit method at the end of the reporting period, the same method used to calculate the defined benefit obligation recognized in the balance sheet.

See below the effects on the defined benefit obligation if the discount rate were 0.25 percentage points higher (lower) and if life expectancy were to increase (decrease) in one year for men and women:

Investment risk

Brazilian pension funds are subject to restrictions on investments in foreign assets. The major part of the resources of the Company’s benefit plans is invested in the fixed income segment and, within this segment, the greater part of the funds is invested in federal government bonds, indexed to the IGP, which is the index for adjustment of the actuarial liabilities of the Company’s plans (defined benefit plans).

Management of the Company’s benefit plans is monitored by the Investment and Pension Management Committee, which includes representatives of active and retired employees, as well as members appointed by the Company. Among the duties of the Committee are the analysis and approval of investment recommendations made by the Fundação CESP investment managers.

In addition to controlling market risks by the unplanned divergence methodology,as required by law, Fundação CESP uses the following tools to control market risks in the fixed income and variable income segments: VaR, Tracking Risk, Tracking Error and Stress TestTest.

Fundação CESP's Investment Policy imposes additional restrictions (beyond those established by law) which define the percentage of ‘diversificationdiversification for investments in assets issued or underwritten by the same legal entity, internally.entity.

It is not yet possible to predict the outcome of the courts’ decisions or any other decisions in similar proceedings considered probable or remote. Consequently, no provision has been established for these. The claims relating to possible losses, at December 31, 20112013, were as follows: (i) R$ 340,833244,277 labor (R$ 341,608 in 2010); (ii) R$ 553,648 civil cases329,590 at December 31, 2012) related mainly to workplace accidents, risk premium, overtime, etc; (ii) R$ 413,850 civil (R$ 577,080 at December 31, 2012) are related mainly to bodilyinjury, environmental impactimpacts and tariff increases (R$ 604,603 in 2010);increases; and (iii) R$967,952 in 2,704,881 tax claims, principally Income tax,(R$ 1,493,646 at December 31, 2012), related mainly to ICMS, FINSOCIAL, and PIS and COFINS and Income taxes, being one of the main claims the deductibility of the expense recognized in 1997 in relation to the commitment assumed for the pension plan of the employees of the subsidiary CPFL Paulista with Fundação CESP amounting R$ 952,913, for which CPFL Paulista has an escrow deposit of R$ 648,861 and (iv) R$ 27,628 regulatory at December 31, 2013 (R$ 823.87212,088 at December 31, 2012).

In accordance with ANEEL’s Order nº 4,097 of December 30, 2010, concerning the basic procedures for preparation of the financial statements, the energy distribution subsidiaries reclassified part of the amount related to revenue from under the heading “Electricity sales to final consumers”, Commercialization activities, to “Other operating revenues”, Distribution activities, with the title “Revenue due to Network Usage Charge - TUSD captive consumers”.

The detailstariff regulation procedure (Proret), approved by ANEEL Normative Resolution n° 463 of November 22, 2011, determined that revenuereceived as a result of excess demand and excess reactive power, from the contractual tariff review date for the 3rd periodic tariff review,should be accounted for as Special Obligations and will be amortized from the next tariff review.

In accordance with ANEEL Order nº 4,991, of December 29, 2011, relating to the basic procedures for preparation of the financial statements, the distributors subsidiaries adjusted revenue of excess and surplus revenue of reactive, reducing the accounts of “Electricity sales to final consumers” and “Revenue due to Network Usage Charge - TUSD free consumers” against the item reducing of intangible assets (“Special Obligations”). The amount recorded was determined from the date of the subsidiaries' tariff review to December 31, 2013.

On February 7, 2012, the Brazilian Association of Electric Energy Distributors (Associação Brasileira de Distribuidores de Energia Elétrica - ABRADEE) succeeded in suspending the effects of Resolution 463, whereby the request for advance final relief was granted and the order to account for income from excess demand and excess reactive as special obligations was suspendedThe suspensive effect applied for by ANEEL in its interlocutory appeal was granted in June 2012 and the advance relief originally granted in favor of ABRADEE was suspendedThe subsidiaries are awaiting the court’s decision on the final treatment of this income, and at

December 31, 2013, these amounts are still recorded under Special Obligations, according to IAS 37, net disclosed in intangible assets of concession.

(a)   Represents the average effect perceived by consumers, in accordance with ANEEL resolutions, as a result of elimination from the tariff base of financial components added in the annual adjustment for the previous year (unaudited).

(b)   On October 2, 2012 ANEEL approved the RTP de 2011 for the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga, with total repositioning of -5.43%, of which -4.45% relates to the economic repositioning and -0.98% to the financial components. This result was used as a calculation basis for the 2012 Annual Tariff Readjustment. On October 16, 2012 ANEEL’s Collegiate Board of Directors approved the 2012 Annual Tariff Review – RTA of the subsidiary.  Tariffs were increased by 8.79%, on average, of which 7.71% relates to the economic increase and 1.08% to the financial components. The 2012 RTA took into consideration the impact of 1/3 of the financial component of the 2011 RTP, which represents a reduction of 2.42%. If this effect had not been taken into account, the total increase of the 2012 RTA would have been 11.21%. With the ratification of the 2011 RTP and 2012 RTA, the average effect to be perceived by consumers is 5.50% in relation to the tariffs in force. The new tariffs are effective from October 23, 2012 to October 22, 2013.

On October 22, 2013 ANEEL published Resolution 1,638, fixing the adjustments in the subsidiary’s tariffs from October 23, 2013.  The tariffs increased by 7.42%, on average, of which 9.69% relates to the annual economic adjustment and -2.27% to the pertinent financial components. The average effect perceived by captive consumers is a 6.91% tariff increase.

 (c)  On January 31, 2012, ANEEL extended the effective term of the supply tariffs and TUSD of these subsidiaries, until the final processing of the tariff adjustmentsreview. The Periodic Tariff Review - RTP of February 2012 was only ratified in January 2013, but without immediate application of the tariffs. Based on the tariffs of the 2012 RTP, ANEEL ratified the Extraordinary Tariff Review (“RTE”), effective from January 24, 2013 to February 2, 2013. The tariffs ratified in the 2013 RTA, which incorporated the effects of the extension of the RTP, came into effect from February 3, 2013.

(d)   On July 12, 2012, ANEEL opened the Public Hearing nº 54/2012 to obtain information for the distributors2011 Periodic Tariff Review - RTP of the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga and proposed a total tariff repositioning of  -5.04%, of which -3.40% relates to the economic repositioning and -1.64% to the financial components. After analysis agents’ comments, ANEEL formulated the final proposal, approved at the Board of Directors’ Meeting on October 2, 2012, with a total repositioning of -5.43%, of which -4.45% relates to the economic repositioning and -0.98% to the financial components. This result was used as a basis for calculation of the 2012 Annual Tariff Readjustment.

On October 16, 2012 ANEEL’s Collegiate Board of Directors approved the 2012 Annual Tariff Review – RTA, of the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga. Tariffs were increased by 8.79%, on average, of which 7.71% relates to the economic increase and 1.08% to the financial components. The 2012 RTA took into consideration the impact of 1/3 of the financial component of the 2011 RTP, which represents a reduction of 2.42%. If this effect had not been taken into account, the total increase of the 2012 RTA would have been 11.21%. With the ratification of the 2011 RTP and 2012 RTA, the average effect to be perceived by consumers is 5.50% in relation to the tariffs ratified by the 2010 Annual Tariff Adjustment. The new tariffs are effective from October 23, 2012 to October 22, 2013.

As mentioned in note 38.1, on February 3, 2014, ANEEL fixed the tariff adjustment of these subsidiaries as from that date.

The subsidiaries filed a Request for Reconsideration in relation to the RTP, which was judged in January 2014 (note 38.7).

26.2 Extraordinary Tariff Review (“RTE”)

In order to encompass the effects of Provisional Measure 579/2012, (converted into Law 12,783 in January 2013) – Extension of the concessions and other topics of interest, ANEELratified the result of the 2013 Extraordinary Tariff Review (“RTE”), applied for consumption from January 24, 2013. The extraordinary review encompassed the electric energy quotas of the generation plants that renewed their concession contracts. The total energy produced by these plants was divided into quotas for the distributors. The effects of the elimination of the Global Reversal Reserve - RGR and Fuel Consumption Account - CCC, the reduction in the Energy Development Account - CDE and the decrease in the transmission costs were also computed. This RTE has no impact on the net profit or loss.  ANEEL ratified the result of the 2013 extraordinary review for the distribution subsidiaries with the following resolutions.

27.1 Resources provided by the CDE - Decree 7,945/2013

Due to the unfavorable hydropower conditions from the end of 2012, including the low levels of water reserves at the hydroelectric power plants, the output of the thermal plants was set at the highest level. In view of this and considering the concessionaires’ exposure in the short-term market, due largely to allocation of the physical energy and power guarantee quotas and repeal of the plants’ authorization by ANEEL, the energy cost of the distributors increased significantly in 2012 and 2013.

As a result of this scenario and as the distribution concessionaires do not have control over these costs, on March 7, 2013, the Brazilian government issued Decree 7,945, which provided for certain changes in the contracting of energy and the objectives of the Energy Development Account - CDE charge.

In relation to contracting of energy, Decree 7,945 (i) reduced the minimum term from three years to one, as from the start of the energy supply, for commercialization contracts for electric energy provided by existing ventures and (ii) increased the pass-through of the distributors’  electric energy acquisition costs to the final consumers from one hundred and three to one hundred and five percent of the total amount of electric energy contracted in relation to the distributor’s annual supply load.

The Decree amended the objectives of the CDE, and introduced the pass-through of CDE funds to the distribution concessionaires in relation to the following costs:

i.exposure in the short-term market of the hydroelectric power plants contracted under a system of physical guarantee of electric energy and power quotas, due to inadequate allocation of generation in the scope of the Energy Relocation Mechanism – MRE (Hydrological Risk);

ii. exposure of the distributors in the short-term market, due to insufficient contractual support for the load distributed, in relation to the amount of replacement not recontracted as a result of non-participation in the extension of the electric energy generation concessions (Involuntary exposure);

iii. the additional cost related to activation of thermoelectric plants without respecting the order of merit by decision of the Electrical Sector Monitoring Committee – CMSE (ESS – Energy Security); 

iv. the full or partial amount of the accumulated positive balance in the CVA (compensation mechanism) account, for the system service charge and energy purchased for resale (CVA ESS and Energy).

In relation to items (i), (ii) and (iii), in accordance with IAS 20 – Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance, the Company recorded the amount of R$ 726,234 in 2013.

In relation to item (iv):

·in the tariff review for the subsidiaries CPFL Paulista and RGE, in Order 1,144, of April 18, 2013, and Authorization Resolution 1,535, of June 18, 2013, respectively, ANEEL granted (i) in the case of the

F -77


subsidiary CPFL Paulista, full coverage of the positive balances of the CVA calculated on energy purchased and the ESS charge for 2012, as well as positive amounts of the CVA for energy purchased in the availability auction, in the accrual period of January 2013, totaling R$ 371,460 and (ii) in the case of the subsidiary RGE, partial coverage of the CVA balances calculated on energy purchased and the ESS charge, amounting to R$ 10,706. Both amounts were credited to the cost of electric energy under Resources provided by the CDE – decree 7,945/13, set against other credits in the line Receivable from resources provided by the Energy Development Account (note 11).

·partial coverage of the positive CVA balances calculated on energy purchased (reversal of an expense of R$ 167,901) and of the System Service Charge (“ESS”) charge (expense of R$ 122) for the period October 2012 to October 2013 was approved for the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga in the tariff adjustment process, through Ratification Resolution 1638 of October 23, 2013, amounting to a total of R$ 167,779. Both amounts were credited to the cost of electric energy under Resources provided by the CDE– decree 7945/13, set against other credits in the line Receivable from resources provided by the Energy Development Account (note 11);

·in the tariff review for the subsidiary CPFL Santa Cruz, approved by Ratification Resolution 1682, of January 30, 2014, ANEEL granted full coverage of the positive CVA balances calculated on energy purchased (reversal of an expense of R$ 15,514) and of the ESS charge (expense of R$ 5,323) for the period February 2013 to January 2014, amounting to a total of R$ 10,192. Both amounts were credited to the cost of electric energy under Resources provided by the CDE– decree 7945/13, set against other credits in the line Receivable from resources provided by the Energy Development Account (note 11);

The resources provided by the CDE recognized in 2013 are shown in the following table, per distributor controlled by the Company:

( 33 )RISK MANAGEMENT  

The business of the Company and its subsidiaries mainly comprises the generation, commercialization and distribution of electric energy.  As public utilities concessionaires, the operations and/or tariffs of its principal subsidiaries are regulated by ANEEL.

Risk management structure:

TheBoard of Directors is responsible fordirecting the way the business is run, which includes monitoring of business risks, exercised by means of the corporate risk management model used by the Company. The responsibilities of the Executive Board are to develop the mechanisms for measuring the impact of the exposure and probability of its occurrence, supervising the implementation of risk mitigation measures and informing the Board of Directors. It is assisted in this process by: i) the Corporate Risk Management Committee, whose mission is to assist in identifying the main business risks, analyzing measurement of the impact and probability and assessing the mitigation measures used; ii) the Risk Management, Internal Control and Consolidated Processes Division, responsible for developing the Company’s Corporate Risk Management model in respect of strategy (policy, direction and risk maps), processes (planning, measurement, monitoring and reporting), systems and governance.

The risk management policies are establishedto identify, analyze and treat the risks faced by the Company and its subsidiaries,and includes reviewing the model adopted whenever necessary to reflect changes in market conditions and in the Company's activities, with a view to developing an environment of disciplined and constructive control

In its supervisory role, the Company’s Board of Directors also counts on the support of the Management Procedures Committee to provide guidance for the Internal Auditing work and in preparing proposals for improvements. The Internal Auditing team conducts both periodic and “ad hoc” reviews in order to ensure alignment of the procedures to directives and strategies set by the shareholders and management.

The Fiscal Council’s responsibilities include certifying that Management has the means to identify and prevent, through the use of an appropriated information system, (a) the main risks to which the Company is exposed, (b) the probability that these will materialize and (c) the measures and plans adopted.The main market risk factors affecting the businesses are as follows:

Exchange rate risk:This risk derives from the possibility of the subsidiaries to incur in losses and cash constraints due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates, increasing the balances of liabilities denominated in foreign currency. The exposure in relation to raising funds in foreign currency is largely covered by contracting swap operations, which allow the Company and its subsidiaries to exchange the original risks of the operation for the cost of the variation in the CDI. The quantification of this risk is presented in note 34. The Company’s subsidiaries’ operations are also exposed to exchange variations on the purchase of electric energy from Itaipu. The compensation mechanism - CVA protects the companies against possible losses. However, the compensation only comes into effect through consumption and the consequent billing

of energy after the next tariff adjustment in which such losses have been considered.Decree 7,945of March, 2013 established that the full or partial amount of the accumulated positive balance by the CVA in relation to the system service charge and energy purchased for resale (CVA ESS and Energy) should be passed on through the CDE, at the time of the tariff adjustment or review (note 27).

Information not examined by the independent auditors.

    

Interest rate Risk:This risk derives from the possibility of the Company and its subsidiaries to incurr in losses due to fluctuations in interest rates that increase financial expenses on loans, financing and debentures. The subsidiaries have tried to increase the proportion of pre-indexed loans or loans tied to indexes with lower rates and little fluctuation in the short and long term. The quantification of this risk is presented in note 34.

Credit risk:This risk arises from the possibility of the subsidiaries incurring losses resulting from difficulties in collecting amounts billed to customers. This risk is evaluated by the subsidiaries as low, as it is spread over the number of customers and in view of the collection policy and cancellation of supply to defaulting consumers.

Risk of energy shortages:The energy sold by the subsidiaries is primarily generated by hydropower plants. A prolonged period of low rainfall, together with an unforeseen increase in demand, could result in a reduction in the volume of water in the power plants’ reservoirs, compromising the recovery of their volume, and resulting in losses due to the increase in the cost of purchasing energy or a reduction in revenue due to the introduction of another rationing program, as in 2001. In spite of the unfavorable hydrological conditions at the beginning of 2014, to accurately define the risk of energy shortages, it is necessary to wait for the end of the wet season in the main water basins.

Risk of acceleration of debts:The Company and its subsidiaries have loans and financing agreements and debentures with restrictive clauses (covenants) normally applicable to these kinds of arrangement, involving compliance with economic and financial ratios, cash generation, etc. These covenants are monitored and do not restrict the capacity to operate normally.

Regulatory risk: The electric energy supplied tariffs charged to captive consumers by the distribution subsidiaries are fixed by ANEEL, at intervals established in the Concession Agreements entered into with the Federal Government and in accordance with the periodic tariff review methodology established for the tariff cycle. Once the methodology has been ratified, ANEEL establishes tariffs to be charged by the distributor to the final consumers. In accordance with Law 8,987/1995, the fixed tariffs should insure the economic and financial balance of the concession contract at the time of the tariff review, which could result in lower results than expected by the electric energy distributors, albeit offset in subsequent periods by other adjustments.

Risk Management for Financial instruments:The Company and its subsidiaries maintain operating and financial policies and strategies to protect the liquidity, safety and profitability of their assets. They accordingly control and follow-up procedures are in place on the transactions and balances of financial instruments, for the purpose of monitoring the risks and current rates in relation to market conditions.

Risk management controls: In order to manage the risks inherent to the financial instruments and to monitor the procedures established by Management, the Company and its subsidiaries use the MAPS software system to calculate the mark to market, stress testing and duration of the instruments, and assess the risks to which the Company and its subsidiaries are exposed. Historically, the financial instruments contracted by the Company and its subsidiaries supported by these tools have produced adequate risk mitigation results. It must be stressed that the Company and its subsidiaries routinely contract derivatives, always with the appropriate levels of approval, only in the event of exposure that Management regards as a risk. The Company and its subsidiaries do not enter into transactions involving exotic or speculative derivatives. Furthermore, the Company meets the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Law, and accordingly has internal control policies that aim for a strict control environment to minimize the exposure to risks.

c)a) Valuation of financial instruments

As mentioned in note 4, the fair value of a security relates to its maturity value (redemption value) marked to present value by the discount factor (relating to the maturity date of the security) obtained from the market interest graph, in Brazilian reais.

IFRS 7 requires classification at three levels of hierarchy for measurement of the fair value of financial instruments, based on observable and unobservable information in relation to valuation of a financial instrument at the measurement date.

IFRS 7 also defines observable information as market data obtained from independent sources and unobservable information that reflects market assumptions.

The three levels of fair value are:

· Level 1: quoted prices in an active market for identical instruments;

· Level 2: observable information other than quoted prices in an active market that are observable for the asset or liability, directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices);

· Level 3: inputs for the instruments that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

The classification in accordance with the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial instruments, measured at fair value, is as follows:

Since the distribution subsidiaries have classified their financial asset of concession assets as available-for-sale, as mentioned in Note 3.2, the relevant factors for measurement at fair value are not publicly observable. The fair value hierarchy classification is therefore level 3. The changes between years and the respective gains (losses) in Other comprehensivenet income are disclosedwas of R$ 66,851 (gain of R$ 159,195 in Note 11.

In the case of specific electricity sector operations, where there are no similar transactions in the market and with low liquidity, mainly related to the regulatory aspects and credits receivable from CESP, the subsidiaries assumed that the market value is represented by the respective carrying amount. This is due to the uncertainties reflected in the variables which have to be taken into consideration in creating a pricing model.2011) (note 10).

The Company recognizedrecognizes in “Investments at cost” in the consolidated financial statements the 5.93% interest held by the indirect subsidiary Paulista Lajeado Energia S.A. in the total capital of Investco S/A,S.A. (“Investco”), in the form of 28,154 common shares and 18.59318,593 preferred shares. Investco’sAs the shares of that company are not quoted on the stock exchange and the main objective of it operations is to generate electric energy for commercialization by the shareholders who hold the concession, the Company opted to recognize the investment at cost.

d)b) Derivatives

The Company and its subsidiaries have athe policy of using derivatives as a hedge against theto reduce their risks of variations in exchange and interest rates, without any speculative purposes. The Company and its subsidiaries have an exchange hedgerate derivatives compatible with the exchange rate risks net exposure, to exchange risks, including all the assets and liabilities tied to exchange variation.rates.

The hedgederivative instruments contractedentered into by the Company and its subsidiaries are currency or interest rate swaps with no leverage component, margin call requirements or daily or periodical adjustments. As terms of the majority of the derivatives contractedentered into by the Company and its subsidiaries are(note 16) have their terms fully aligned with the debts protected, and in order to obtain more relevant and consistent accounting information through the recognition of income and expenses, certainthese debts were designated at fair value, for accounting purposes. Other debts with different terms from thetheir respective derivatives contracted as a hedge continue to be recorded at amortized cost. Furthermore, the Company and its subsidiaries do not adopt hedge accounting for derivative operations.

As mentioned above, certain subsidiaries opted to mark to market debts for which they have fully tied hedgederivative instruments resulting in a loss of R$ 7,359 at December 31, 2011 (Note(note 16).

The Company and its subsidiaries have recorded gains and losses on their derivatives. However, as these derivatives are used as a hedge, these gains and losses minimized the impact of variations in exchange and interest rates on the protected indebtedness.debts. For the years 2011, 20102013, 2012 and 2009,2011, the derivatives resulted in the following impacts on the consolidated result:

e)c) Sensitivity Analysis

In compliance with CVM Instruction n° 475/08 and IFRS 7, the Company and its subsidiaries performed sensitivity analyses of the main risks to which their financial instruments (including derivatives) are exposed, mainly comprising variations in exchange and interest rates, as shown below:

e.1) Exchange variationbelow.

If the risk exposure is considered an asset, the risk to be taken into account is a reduction in the pegged indexes, resulting in a negative impact on the income of the Company and its subsidiaries.  Similarly, if the risk exposure is considered a liability, the risk is of an increase in the pegged indexes and the consequent negative effect on income.  The Company and its subsidiaries therefore quantify the risks in terms of the net exposure of the variables (dollar, CDI, IGP-M and TJLP), as shown below:

c.1) Exchange ratesvariation 

Considering the level of net exchange rate exposure at December 31, 20112013 is maintained, the simulation of the consolidated effects by type of financial instrument for three different scenarios would be:

(*) As per foreign exchange rate curves obtained from information provided by the BM&F.The exchange rate considered was R$ 2.61.

(**) In compliance with CVM Instruction 475/08, the percentage of exchange depreciation are related to the information provided by the BM&F.
As the net exposure is an asset, the risk is of a drop in the dollar and the exchange rate is therefore appreciated by 25% and 50% in relation to the probable dollar.

 

e.2)c.2) Variation in interest rates

IfAssuming (i) the scenario of net exposure of the financial instruments indexed to variable interest rates at December 31,2011 were to be 2013 is maintained, and (ii) the respective accumulated annual indexes as of that date were tofor 2013 remain stable (CDI 11,59% a.a;8.02% p.a; IGP-M 5,1% a.a.5.51% p.a.; TJLP  6,0% a.a.5.00% p.a.), the effects on the consolidatedCompany’s 2013 financial statements for the next company year would be a net financial expense of R$ 847,331.R$ 728,835 (CDI R$ 518,664, IGP-M R$ 4,563 e TJLP R$ 205,608). In the event of fluctuations in the indexes in accordance with the three scenarios described below, the effect on the net financial expense would as follows:

e.3) Financial asset of concession

As mentioned in Note 3.1,d) Liquidity analysis

The Company manages liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows, and by matching the Company adoptsmaturity profiles of its financial liabilities. The table below sets out details of the premise that thevaluecontractual maturities of thefinancial concession assetis determinedliabilities as at fair value,December 31, 2013, taking into account principal and interest, and is based on the remuneration ofundiscounted cash flow, considering the assets as established byANEEL. 

Since the Federal Government has not yet defined the methodology and criteria for valuation of the financial asset, the Company estimates that, under remote circumstances, indemnification for the not amortized portion of the assets could be basedearliest date on the historic cost and not at the amount based on the respective fair value.

Accordingly, if this remote scenario were to occur, it would involve derecognition of the portion of the financial concession asset (portion relating to the fair value recognized), entered against Other comprehensive Income – Financial Instruments in the amount of R$ 227,118 (net of tax effects).

( 34 )RISK MANAGEMENT

The business of the Company and its subsidiaries comprises principally generation, commercialization and distribution of electric energy. As public service concessionaires, the operations and/or tariffs of its principal subsidiaries are regulated by ANEEL.

Risk management structure:

The Board of Directors is responsible for allocating priorities in respect of the risks to be monitored by the Company, confirming the tolerance levels approved by the Executive Board and being aware of the corporate risk management model adopted by the Company.  The Executive Board is responsible for developing and implementing action and risk monitoring plans. The Risk Management and Internal Controls Department and the Corporate Risk Management Committee were set up to assist it in this process.  Since its creation, the Risk Management and Internal Controls Departmenthas drawn up theCorporate Risk Management Policy, approved by the Executive Board and the Board of Directors, set up the Corporative Risk Management Committee, comprising directors appointed to represent each Management Unit, and the internal rules, and is implementing the Corporate Risk Management model for the Group with regard to Strategy (guidelines, risk map and treatment), Processes (planning, execution, monitoring and reports), Systems, Organization and Governance.

The risk management policies are establishedto identify, analyze and treats the risks faced by the Company and its subsidiaries,and includes reviewing the model adopted wherever necessary to reflect changes in market conditions and in the Group's activities, with a view to developing an environment of disciplined and constructive control

The Group's Board of Directors is assisted in its supervisory role by the Internal Audit department. The Internal audit department conducts both the regular reviews and the ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to theBoard of Directors and the Fiscal Council.

The main market risk factors affecting the businesses are as follows:

Exchange rate risk:This risk derives from the possibility of the subsidiaries incurring losses and cash constraints on account of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, increasing the balances of foreign currency denominated liabilities.The exposure in relation to raising funds in foreign currency is largely covered by contracting swap operations, which allow the Company and its subsidiaries to exchange the original risks of the operation for the cost of the variation in the CDI. The operations of the Company’s subsidiaries are also exposed to exchange variations on the purchase of electric energy from Itaipu. The compensation mechanism - CVA protects the companies against possible losses. However, the compensation only comes into effect through consumption and the consequent billing of energy after the next tariff adjustment in which such losses have been considered. The quantification of this risk is measured in Note 33 (e).

Interest Rate Risk:This risk derives from the possibility of the Company and its subsidiaries incurring losses due to fluctuations in interest rates that increase financial expenses on loans, financing and debentures. The subsidiaries have tried to increase the proportion of pre-indexed loans or loans tied to indexes with lower rates and little fluctuation in the short and long term. The quantification of this risk is measured in Note 33 (e).

Credit Risk:This risk arises from the possibility of the subsidiaries incurring losses resulting from difficulties in collecting amounts billed to customers. This risk is evaluated by the subsidiaries as low, as it is spread over the number of customers and in view of the collection policy and cancellation of supply to defaulting consumers.

Risk of Energy Shortages:The energy sold by the Company is primarily generated by hydropower plants. A prolonged period of low rainfall, together with an unforeseen increase in demand, could result in a reduction in the volume of water in the power plants’ reservoirs, compromising the recovery of their volume, and resulting in losses due to the increase in the cost of purchasing energy or a reduction in revenue due to the introduction of another rationing program, as in 2001. According to the Annual Energy Operation Plan – PEN of July 2011, drawn up by the Operador Nacional do Sistema Elétrico (National Electricity SystemOperator), the risk of any energy deficit is very low for 2012, and the likelihood of another energy rationing program is remote.

F - 80


Table of Contents

Risk of Acceleration of Debts:The subsidiaries have loan agreements, financing and debentures with restrictive clauses (covenants) normally applicable to these kinds of arrangements, involving compliance with economic and financial ratios, cash generation, etc. These covenants are monitored appropriately and do not restrict the capacity to operate normally.

Regulatory risk: The tariffs charged to captive consumers by the distribution subsidiaries are fixed by ANEEL, at intervals established in the Concession Arrangements entered into with the Federal Government and in conformity with the periodic tariff review methodology established for the tariff cycle. Once the methodology has been ratified, ANEEL establishes tariffs to be charged by the distributor to the end consumers. In accordance with Law 8.987/1995, the fixed tariffs should insure the economic and financial balance of the concession contract at the time of the tariff review, however, the risk of application of the tariffs falls to the electric energy distributors

Risk Management for Financial instruments:The Company and its subsidiaries maintain operating and financial policies and strategies to protect the liquidity, safety and profitability of their assets. Accordingly, control and follow-up procedures are in place to monitor the transactions and balances of financial instruments for risks and current rates in relation to market conditions.

Risk management controls: In order to manage the risks inherent to the financial instruments and to monitor the procedures established by management, the Company and its subsidiaries use the MAPS software system to calculate the mark to market, stress testing and duration of the instruments, and assess the risks to which the Company and its subsidiaries are exposed. Historically, the financial instruments contracted by the Company and its subsidiaries supported by these tools have produced adequate risk mitigation results. It must be stressed that the Company and its subsidiaries have a formal policyto settle their respective obligations.

The distribution subsidiaries recognizerecord regulatory assets and liabilities (for regulatory financial statement purpose only) in relation to the special discounts applied on the TUSD to the free consumers, in respect of electric energy supplied from alternative sources and on the tariffs for energy supplied for irrigation and aquaculture.

b) Parcel “A”CVA:

Corresponds to the variation in the non-manageable costs representing Parcel "A" of the concession arrangement between January 1 and October 25, 2001, during the rationing period.

F - 8291


 

Table of Contents

c) CVA

Refers to the mechanism for offsetting the variations in unmanageable costs incurred by the electric energy distribution concessionaires. These variations are calculated in accordance with the difference between the expenses effectively incurred and the expenses estimated at the time of establishing the tariffs in the annual tariff adjustments. The amounts taken into consideration in the CVA are restatedmonetary adjustment  at the SELIC rate.

d) Overcontractingc) Overcontracting:

Electric energy distribution concessionaires are obliged to guarantee 100% of their energy and power market through contracts approved, registered and ratified by ANEEL, and are also assured that costs or income derived from overcontracting will be passed on to the tariffs, restricted to 3%5% of the energy load requirement.

e)d) Subsidy - Low IncomeIncome:

Refers to the subsidies granted to consumers entitled to the Social Electric Energy Tariff (Low Income) if they are enrolled in the Sole Register for Federal Government Social Programs (Cadastro Único para Programas Sociais do Governo Federal – CadÚnico), irrespective of their energy consumption.

f)e) Neutrality of the Sector ChargesCharges:

Refers to the neutrality of the sector charges in the tariff, calculating the monthly differences between the amounts billed and the amounts considered in the tariff.

g) CPFL Piratiningaf) Tariff Review –review / Provisional ProcedureProcedure:

The 2011 tariff review for the subsidiary CPFL Piratininga was scheduled for October 23, 2011. ANEEL’sAlthough it had not been finalized, ANEEL established in Order nº 4.991, of December 29, 2011, concerningthat for regulatory purposes, the basic proceduresregulatory assets and liabilities should be calculated on a best estimate basis. On October 16, 2012, ANEEL’s Collegiate Board approved the subsidiary’s annual Tariff Adjustment - RTA for preparation2012, taking into account the impact of 1/3 of the financial statements, requested recognitioncomponent of the best estimate2011 periodic tariff review - RTP. In Order nº 155, of January 23, 2013, ANEEL reviewed the accounting classification of the accountingProvisional Procedure and created the replacement reimbursement account in the periodical tariff review.

On February 3, 2013, ANEEL’s Collegiate Board of Directors approved the 2012 Annual Tariff Review – RTA of the subsidiaries CPFL Santa Cruz, CPFL Leste Paulista, CPFL Sul Paulista, CPFL Jaguari and CPFL Mococa.  The RTA took into account the total impact of  the financial component of the 2011 RTP.  In Order 155, of January 23, 2013, ANEEL reviewed the nomenclature account of the Provisional Procedure and created the replacement reimbursement account in the periodical tariff reviewreview. The Requests for 2011.Reconsideration filed by the subsidiaries in relation to ANEEL’s decision on the RTP were judged in January 2014 and partially accepted. The effects were consequently taken into account in the 2014 RTA (note 38.7).
