ARTICLE 2. FORM OF RECEIPTS, DEPOSIT OF SHARES, EXECUTION AND DELIVERY, TRANSFER AND SURRENDER OF RECEIPTS.

SECTION 2.01.Form and Transferability of Receipts.

Unless otherwise required by applicable rules or regulations of any securities market upon which the American Depositary Shares may be traded, definitive Receipts shall be engraved or printed or lithographed and shall be executed by the Depositary by the manual signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary;provided,however, that such signature may be a facsimile if a Registrar for the Receipts shall have been appointed, such Registrar not to be deemed an agent of the Company and such Receipts are countersigned by the manual signature of a duly authorized officer of the Registrar. No Receipt shall be entitled to any benefits under this Deposit Agreement, or be valid or enforceable for any purpose, unless such Receipt shall have been executed by the Depositary by the manual signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary or, if a Registrar for the Receipts shall have been appointed and the Depositary shall have signed by facsimile signature, countersigned by the manual signature of a duly authorized officer of the Registrar. The Depositary shall maintain books on which each Receipt so executed and delivered as hereinafter provided and the transfer of each such Receipt shall be registered;provided,however, that if a Registrar has been appointed then such books shall be maintained by the Registrar. Receipts bearing the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary who was at any time a proper signatory of the Depositary shall bind the Depositary, notwithstanding that such signatory of the Depositary has ceased to hold such office prior to the execution of such Receipts by the Registrar and their delivery or did not hold such office at the date of such Receipts.

The Receipts may, with the prior written consent of the Company, and shall, at the request of the Company, be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text thereof such legends or recitals or changes not inconsistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement or with any provision of the Company's By-laws or Brazilian law as may be reasonably required by the Depositary in respect of its obligations hereunder or as may be required by the Depositary or the Company to comply with any applicable law or regulations or with the rules and regulations of any securities exchange upon which American Depositary Shares may be listed or traded or to conform with any usage with respect thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which any particular Receipts are subject by reason of the date of issuance of the underlying Deposited Securities or otherwise.

Title to a Receipt (and to the American Depositary Shares evidenced thereby), when such Receipt is properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer, shall be transferable by delivery as a certificated security in accordance with New York law;provided,however, that the Depositary, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, may treat the Owner thereof as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of determining the person entitled to any distribution of dividends or other distributions or to any notice provided for in this Deposit Agreement and for all other purposes, and neither the Depositary nor the Company shall have any obligation or be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to any holder of a Receipt unless such holder is the Owner thereof.

SECTION 2.02.Deposit of Shares.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, evidence of rights to receive Shares may be deposited by delivery thereof to the Custodian hereunder accompanied by any appropriate instrument or instruments of transfer in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Custodian, together with all such certifications as may be required by the Depositary or the Custodian or the Company upon written notification to the Depositary in accordance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement, and, if the Depositary requires, together with a written order directing the Depositary to execute and deliver to, or upon the written order of, the person or persons stated in such order, a Receipt or Receipts for the number of American Depositary Shares representing such deposit. The Company or the Share Registrar, will, upon request by the Depositary, issue or cause to be issued written confirmations as to holdings of Shares, it being agreed and understood that such confirmations do not constitute documents of title. Copies of the confirmations with respect to Deposited Securities shall be held by the Depositary or by the Custodian for the account and to the order of the Depositary or at such other place or places as the Depositary shall determine. No Share shall be accepted for deposit unless accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary that any necessary approval has been granted by any governmental body in Brazil which is then performing the function of the regulation of currency exchange.

If required by the Depositary and provided that no applicable Brazilian law is violated thereby, Shares presented for deposit at any time, whether or not the transfer books of the Company or the Share Registrar, if applicable, are closed, shall also be accompanied by an agreement or assignment, or other instrument reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary, which will provide for the prompt transfer to the Custodian or the Depositary, as the case may be, with respect to such Shares of any dividend or right to subscribe for additional Shares or to receive other property which any person in whose name the Shares are or have been registered may thereafter receive upon or in respect of such deposited Shares or, in lieu thereof, such agreement of indemnity or other agreement as shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary.

At the request and risk and expense of any person proposing to deposit Shares, and for the account of such person, the Depositary may receive evidence of rights to receive Shares to be deposited, together with the other instruments herein specified, for the purpose of forwarding such documentation to the Custodian for deposit hereunder.

Upon each delivery to the Custodian of evidence of rights to receive Shares to be deposited hereunder, together with the other documents above specified, the Custodian shall, as soon as transfer and recordation can be accomplished, present such documentation to the Company or the Share Registrar, if applicable, for transfer and recordation of the Shares being deposited in the name of the Depositary or its nominee or the Custodian or its nominee.

Deposited Securities shall be held by the Depositary or by the Custodian for the account and to the order of the Depositary or at such other place or places as the Depositary shall determine.

SECTION 2.03.Execution and Delivery of Receipts.

Upon receipt by the Custodian of any deposit of Shares pursuant to Section 2.02 (and in addition, if the transfer books of the Company or the Share Registrar, if applicable, are open, the Depositary may in its sole discretion require reasonable evidence that any Deposited Securities have been recorded upon the books of the Company or the Share Registrar, if applicable, in the name of the Depositary or its nominee or the Custodian or its nominee), together with the other documents required as specified herein, the Custodian shall promptly notify the Depositary of such deposit and the person or persons to whom or upon whose written order a Receipt or Receipts are deliverable in respect thereof and the number of American Depositary Shares to be evidenced thereby. Such notification shall be made by letter (first class air mail postage prepaid) or, at the request, risk and expense of the person making the deposit, by air courier, cable, telex or facsimile transmission. Upon receiving such notice from the Custodian, or upon the receipt of Shares by the Depositary, the Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement (including, but not limited to the terms and conditions contained in Section 2.02), shall execute and deliver at its Corporate Trust Office and, if applicable, cause the Registrar to countersign, to or upon the order of the person or persons named in the notice delivered to the Depositary or requested by the person depositing such Shares with the Depositary, a Receipt or Receipts, registered in such name or names and evidencing any authorized number of American Depositary Shares requested by such person or persons, but only upon payment to the Depositary of the fee of the Depositary for the execution and delivery of such Receipt or Receipts as provided in Section 5.09, and of all taxes and governmental charges and fees payable in connection with such deposit and the transfer of the deposited Shares.

SECTION 2.04.Transfer of Receipts; Combination and Split-up of Receipts.

The Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, shall, as promptly as practicable, register transfers on its transfer books from time to time of any Receipt, upon surrender, by the Owner in person or by a duly authorized attorney, of such Receipt properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer, and duly stamped, as may be required by the laws of the State of New York and of the United States of America. Thereupon, the Depositary shall execute and, if applicable, cause the Registrar to countersign a new Receipt or Receipts evidencing the same aggregate number of American Depositary Shares as were evidenced by the Receipt surrendered and deliver the same to or upon the order of the person entitled thereto, subject to receipt of all certificates, if any, as the Depositary or the Company may require in order to comply with any applicable laws.

The Depositary, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, shall, upon surrender of a Receipt or Receipts for the purpose of effecting a split-up or combination of such Receipt or Receipts, execute and deliver and, if applicable, cause the Registrar to countersign, subject to receipt of all certificates, if any, as the Depositary or the Company may require in order to comply with any applicable laws, a new Receipt or Receipts for any authorized number of American Depositary Shares requested, evidencing the same aggregate number of American Depositary Shares as were evidenced by the Receipt or Receipts surrendered.

The Depositary, at its expense, may appoint one or more co-transfer agents, upon at least 20 days’ prior written notice to the Company, for the purpose of effecting transfers, combinations and split-ups of Receipts at designated transfer offices on behalf of the Depositary. Each co-transfer agent appointed under this Section 2.04 shall give notice in writing to the Depositary accepting such appointment and agreeing to be bound by the applicable terms of this Deposit Agreement. In carrying out its functions, a co-transfer agent may require evidence of authority and compliance with applicable laws and other requirements by Owners or holders of Receipts or persons entitled to Receipts and will be entitled to protection and indemnity to the same extent as the Depositary.

SECTION 2.05.Surrender of Receipts and Withdrawal of Shares.

Upon surrender at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary of a Receipt for the purpose of withdrawal of a whole number of Deposited Securities represented thereby, and upon payment of the fee of the Depositary for the cancellation of Receipts as provided in Section 5.09 and subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, the Company's By-laws and the Deposited Securities, the Owner of such Receipt shall be entitled to delivery of the whole number of Shares and the number of any other Deposited Securities represented by the American Depositary Shares evidenced thereby and so withdrawn to an account designated by such Owner and to delivery at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary of a new Receipt evidencing any Shares and other Deposited Securities not withdrawn. Such delivery shall be made, as hereinafter provided, as promptly as practicable.

A Receipt surrendered for such purposes may be required by the Depositary to be properly endorsed in blank or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer in blank, and if the Depositary requires, the Owner thereof shall execute and deliver to the Depositary a written order directing the Depositary to cause the Deposited Securities being withdrawn to be delivered to an account designated by such Owner. Thereupon the Depositary shall, subject to Sections 2.06, 3.01 and 3.02 hereof, and to the other terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, effect, or direct the Custodian, to effect, such delivery, except that the Depositary may make delivery to such person or persons at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary of any dividends or distributions upon such Deposited Securities, or of any proceeds of sale of any such dividends or distributions, which may at the time be held by the Depositary.

At the request, risk and expense of any Owner so surrendering a Receipt, and for the account of such Owner, the Depositary shall direct the Custodian to forward any cash or other property (other than rights) and forward any evidence of rights to receive Deposited Securities or any certificates or other proper documents of title (if available) for any such Deposited Securities to the Depositary for delivery at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary. Such direction shall be given by mail or, at the request, risk and expense of such Owner, by air courier, cable, telex or facsimile transmission.

Neither the Depositary nor the Custodian shall deliver Shares (other than as provided in Section 3.01, 4.08, 4.11 or 6.02), or otherwise permit Shares to be withdrawn from the facility created hereby, except upon the receipt and cancellation of Receipts.

SECTION 2.06.Limitations on Execution and Delivery, Transfer and Surrender of Receipts.

As a condition precedent to the execution and delivery, registration of transfer, split-up, combination or surrender of any Receipt, the delivery of any distribution thereon, or the withdrawal of any Deposited Securities, the Depositary, the Company or the Custodian may require payment from the presenter of the Receipt or the depositor of the Shares of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any tax or other governmental charge and any stock transfer, registration or conversion fee with respect thereto (including any such tax or charge and fee with respect to Shares being deposited or Deposited Securities being withdrawn) and payment of any applicable fees as herein provided, may require the production of proof satisfactory to it as to the identity and genuineness of any signature and may also require compliance with such regulations, if any, as the Depositary may establish consistent with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 7.07.

The delivery of Receipts against deposits of Shares generally or against deposits of particular Shares may be suspended and the transfer of Receipts in particular instances may be refused or the registration of transfer of outstanding Receipts generally may be suspended during any period when the transfer books of the Depositary are closed as permitted by Section 5.01, or if any such action is deemed necessary or advisable by the Company or the Depositary at any time or from time to time because of any requirement of law or of any government or governmental or regulatory body or commission or following receipt of notification from the Company of the suspension of the quotation of the Shares in Brazil, or under any provision of this Deposit Agreement or the By-laws of the Company, or for any other reason, subject to Section 7.07 of this Deposit Agreement. The Depositary shall notify the Company as promptly as practicable of any suspension or refusal under the preceding sentence that is outside the ordinary course of business and the reason for that action. The surrender of outstanding Receipts and withdrawal of Deposited Securities may not be suspended except in the case of (i) temporary delays caused by closing the transfer books of the Depositary, Company or the Share Registrar or the deposit of Shares in connection with voting at a shareholders' meeting or the payment of dividends, (ii) the payment of fees, taxes and similar charges and (iii) compliance with any United States or foreign laws or governmental regulations relating to the Receipts or to the withdrawal of the Deposited Securities. The Depositary and the Custodian will comply with reasonable written instructions from the Company requesting that the Depositary and the Custodian not accept for deposit hereunder any Shares identified in such instructions in order to facilitate the Company's compliance with United States federal securities laws, any provision of the Company's By-laws or Brazilian law. Without limitation of the foregoing, neither the Depositary nor the Custodian shall accept for deposit under this Deposit Agreement any Shares (i) which, to the actual knowledge of the Depositary, are required to be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 prior to public sale in the United States, unless a registration statement is in effect as to such Shares or (ii) the deposit of which would, to the actual knowledge of the Depositary, infringe any provisions of Brazilian law.

SECTION 2.07.Lost Receipts, etc.

In case any Receipt shall be mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Depositary shall execute and deliver and, if applicable, cause the Registrar to countersign, a new Receipt of like tenor, in exchange and substitution for such mutilated Receipt upon cancellation thereof, or in lieu of and in substitution for such destroyed or lost or stolen Receipt, upon the Owner thereof filing with the Depositary (a) a request for such execution and delivery before the Depositary has notice that the Receipt has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser and (b) a sufficient indemnity bond, and satisfying any other reasonable requirements imposed by the Depositary.

SECTION 2.08.Cancellation and Destruction of Surrendered Receipts.

All Receipts surrendered to the Depositary shall be cancelled by the Depositary. Cancelled Receipts shall not be entitled to any benefits under this Deposit Agreement or be valid or enforceable for any purpose, and the Depositary shall destroy Receipts so canceled and inform the Company. The Depositary shall keep such records of all Receipts outstanding, and of their payment, cancellation and destruction, as are required under applicable stock transfer rules.

SECTION 2.09.Pre-Release of Receipts.

Unless requested in writing by the Company to cease doing so, the Depositary may, notwithstanding Section 2.03, execute and deliver Receipts prior to the receipt of Shares pursuant to Section 2.02 (a "Pre-Release"). The Depositary may, pursuant to Section 2.05, deliver Shares upon the receipt and cancellation of Receipts which have been Pre-Released, whether or not such cancellation is prior to the termination of such Pre-Release or the Depositary knows that such Receipt has been Pre-Released. The Depositary may receive Receipts in lieu of Shares in satisfaction of a Pre-Release. Each Pre-Release will be (a) preceded or accompanied by a written representation and agreement from the person to whom Receipts or Shares are to be delivered (a "Pre-Releasee"), that such Pre-Releasee, or its customer, (i) as of the time of such transaction, owns the Shares or Receipts to be remitted, as the case may be, (ii) assigns all beneficial right, title and interest in such Shares or Receipts, as the case may be, to the Depositary in its capacity as such and for the benefit of the Owners, and (iii) will not take any action with respect to such Shares or Receipts, as the case may be, that is inconsistent with the transfer of beneficial ownership (including, without the consent of the Depositary, disposing of such Shares or Receipts, as the case may be), other than in satisfaction of such Pre-Release, (b) at all times fully collateralized with cash, U.S. government securities or such other collateral as the Depositary determines, in good faith, will provide substantially similar liquidity and security, (c) terminable by the Depositary on not more than five (5) business days notice, and (d) subject to such further indemnities and credit regulations as the Depositary deems appropriate. The Company will not incur any liability to any Owners or holders of a Receipt as a result of actions taken by the Depositary pursuant to this Section 2.09. The number of American Depositary Shares which are outstanding at any time as a result of Pre-Release will not normally exceed thirty percent (30%) of the Shares deposited hereunder;provided,however, that the Depositary reserves the right to disregard such limit from time to time as it deems reasonably appropriate and may, with the prior written consent of the Company, change such limit for the purposes of general application. The Depositary will also set dollar limits with respect to Pre-Release transactions to be entered into hereunder with any particular Pre-Releasee on a case-by-case basis as the Depositary deems appropriate. For purposes of enabling the Depositary to fulfill its obligations to the Owners under this Deposit Agreement, the collateral referred to in clause (b) above shall be held by the Depositary as security for the performance of the Pre-Releasee's obligations to the Depositary in connection with a Pre-Release transaction, including the Pre-Releasee's obligation to deliver Shares or Receipts upon termination of a Pre-Release transaction (and shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute Deposited Securities hereunder).

The Depositary may retain for its own account any compensation received by it in connection with the foregoing.

SECTION 2.10.No Liability and Responsibility.

None of the Company, the Depositary or the Custodian will have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for any action or failure to act by any Owner relating to the Owner's obligations under any applicable Brazilian law or regulation relating to foreign investment in Brazil in respect of a withdrawal or sale of Deposited Securities, including, without limitation, any failure to comply with a requirement to register such investment pursuant to the terms of any such applicable Brazilian law or regulation prior to such withdrawal or any failure to report foreign exchange transactions to the Brazilian Central Bank, as the case may be. Each Owner will be responsible for the report of any false information relating to foreign exchange transactions to the Custodian or the Brazilian Central Bank in connection with deposits or withdrawals of Deposited Securities.

SECTION 2.11.Maintenance of Records.

The Depositary agrees to maintain or cause its agents to maintain, and shall make or cause to be made available to the Company for review and copying during normal business hours at the Company's expense, records of all Receipts issued under Sections 2.03 and 2.04, all Receipts surrendered and all Deposited Securities withdrawn under Section 2.05, substitute Receipts delivered under Section 2.07 and of cancelled or destroyed Receipts under Section 2.08, all in keeping with procedures ordinarily followed by stock transfer agents in the City of New York.

SECTION 2.12.Uncertificated American Depositary Shares; DTC Direct Registration System.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Deposit Agreement:

(a) American Depositary Shares may be certificated securities evidenced by Receipts or uncertificated securities. The form of Receipt annexed as Exhibit A to this Deposit Agreement summarizes the terms and conditions of, and will be the prospectus required under the Securities Act of 1933 for, both certificated and uncertificated American Depositary Shares. Except for those provisions of this Deposit Agreement that by their nature do not apply to uncertificated American Depositary Shares, all the provisions of this Deposit Agreement shall apply,mutatis mutandis, to both certificated and uncertificated American Depositary Shares.

(b) (i) The term "deliver", or its noun form, when used with respect to Receipts, shall mean (A) book-entry transfer of American Depositary Shares to an account at The Depository Trust Company, or its successor ("DTC"), designated by the person entitled to such delivery, evidencing American Depositary Shares registered in the name requested by that person, (B) registration of American Depositary Shares not evidenced by a Receipt on the books of the Depositary in the name requested by the person entitled to such delivery and mailing to that person of a statement confirming that registration or (C) if requested by the person entitled to such delivery, delivery at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary to the person entitled to such delivery of one or more Receipts.

(ii) The term "surrender", when used with respect to Receipts, shall mean (A) one or more book-entry transfers of American Depositary Shares to the DTC account of the Depositary, (B) delivery to the Depositary at its Corporate Trust Office of an instruction to surrender American Depositary Shares not evidenced by a Receipt or (C) surrender to the Depositary at its Corporate Trust Office of one or more Receipts evidencing American Depositary Shares.

(c) American Depositary Shares not evidenced by Receipts shall be transferable as uncertificated registered securities under the laws of New York.

(d) The Depositary shall have a duty to register a transfer, in the case of uncertificated American Depositary Shares, upon receipt from the Owner of a proper instruction (including, for the avoidance of doubt, instructions through DRS and Profile as provided in subsection (f) below). The Depositary, upon surrender of a Receipt for the purpose of exchanging it for uncertificated American Depositary Shares, shall cancel that Receipt and send the Owner a statement confirming that the Owner is the owner of the same number of uncertificated American Depositary Shares that the surrendered Receipt evidenced. The Depositary, upon receipt of a proper instruction (including, for the avoidance of doubt, instructions through DRS and Profile as provided in subsection (f) below) from the Owner of uncertificated American Depositary Shares for the purpose of exchanging them for certificated American Depositary Shares, shall execute and deliver to the Owner a Receipt evidencing the same number of certificated American Depositary Shares.

(e) Upon satisfaction of the conditions for replacement of a Receipt that is mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen, the Depositary shall deliver to the Owner the American Depositary Shares evidenced by that Receipt in uncertificated form unless otherwise requested by the Owner.

(f) (i) The parties acknowledge that the Direct Registration System ("DRS") and Profile Modification System ("Profile") shall apply to uncertificated American Depositary Shares upon acceptance thereof to DRS by DTC. DRS is the system administered by DTC pursuant to which the Depositary may register the ownership of uncertificated American Depositary Shares, which ownership shall be evidenced by periodic statements issued by the Depositary to the Owners entitled thereto. Profile is a required feature of DRS which allows a DTC participant, claiming to act on behalf of an Owner of American Depositary Shares, to direct the Depositary to register a transfer of those American Depositary Shares to DTC or its nominee and to deliver those American Depositary Shares to the DTC account of that DTC participant without receipt by the Depositary of prior authorization from the Owner to register such transfer.

(ii) In connection with and in accordance with the arrangements and procedures relating to DRS/Profile, the parties understand that the Depositary will not verify, determine or otherwise ascertain that the DTC participant which is claiming to be acting on behalf of an Owner in requesting a registration of transfer and delivery as described in subsection (i) has the actual authority to act on behalf of the Owner (notwithstanding any requirements under the Uniform Commercial Code). For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Sections 5.3 and 5.8 shall apply to the matters arising from the use of the DRS. The parties agree that the Depositary's reliance on and compliance with instructions received by the Depositary through the DRS/Profile System and in accordance with this Deposit Agreement shall not constitute negligence or bad faith on the part of the Depositary.

ARTICLE 3. CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS OF OWNERS OF RECEIPTS.

SECTION 3.01.Providing Proofs, Certificates and Other Information.

Any person presenting Shares for deposit or any Owner may be required from time to time to provide such proof of (a) citizenship, residence, exchange control approval or payment of taxes and other governmental charges and compliance with all applicable laws and regulations governing Deposited Securities and the terms of this Deposit Agreement and (b) the identity of any person legally or beneficially interested in the Receipt and Shares and the nature of such interest, such information relating to the registration of the Shares presented for deposit on the books of the Company or the Share Registrar, if applicable or to provide such other information, to execute such certificates and to make such representations and warranties, as the Depositary may reasonably deem necessary or proper or as the Company reasonably may require by written request to the Depositary or the Custodian. The Depositary may withhold the delivery or registration of transfer of any Receipt, the distribution of any dividend or other distribution or sale of rights or of the proceeds thereof, or the delivery of any Deposited Securities until such proof or other information is provided, such certificates are executed or such representations and warranties are made pertaining to such Receipt to the satisfaction of the Company and the Depositary.

The Depositary shall provide the Company, upon the Company's request and in a timely manner, with copies of any information or other material which it receives pursuant to this Section 3.01, to the extent that disclosure is permitted under applicable law. Each Owner agrees to provide any information requested by the Company or the Depositary pursuant to this Section.

SECTION 3.02.Liability of Owner for Taxes.

If any tax or other governmental charge shall become payable with respect to any Receipt or any Deposited Securities represented by any Receipt, such tax or other governmental charge shall be payable by the Owner of such Receipt to the Depositary. The Depositary may refuse, and the Company shall be under no obligation, to effect registration of transfer of all or part of such Receipt or any withdrawal of Deposited Securities represented thereby until such payment is made, and may withhold any dividends or other distributions or, after attempting by reasonable means to notify such Owner, may sell for the account of the Owner thereof any part or all of the Deposited Securities represented by such Receipt, and may apply such dividends or other distributions or the proceeds of any such sale to payment of such tax or other governmental charge, the Owner of such Receipt remaining liable for any deficiency.

SECTION 3.03.Warranties on Deposit of Shares.

Every person depositing Shares under this Deposit Agreement, including every person depositing Shares on behalf of an owner of Shares, shall be deemed thereby to represent and warrant that (i) such Shares are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, (ii) the person making such deposit is duly authorized so to do, (iii) such Shares are not "restricted securities" as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, (iv) such Shares are free and clear of any lien, encumbrance, security interest, charge, mortgage, pledge or restriction on transfer, (v) such Shares are free of any pre-emptive rights of the holders of outstanding Shares, and (vi) such Shares include all rights to receive dividends thereon. Such representations and warranties shall survive the deposit of such Shares and issuance of Receipts in respect thereof.

SECTION 3.04.Information Requests.

The Company, and the Depositary at the Company’s request, may from time to time request Owners of Receipts to provide information as to the capacity in which such Owners own or owned Receipts and regarding the identity of any other persons then or previously interested in such Receipts as to the nature of such interest and various other matters. Each such Owner agrees to provide any such information reasonably requested by the Company or the Depositary pursuant to this Section 3.04 and such agreement shall survive any disposition of such Owner’s Receipts or the American Depositary Shares evidenced thereby. The Depositary agrees to use reasonable efforts to comply with written instructions received from the Company requesting that the Depositary forward any such requests to the Owners and to forward to the Company any responses to such requests received by the Depositary, and to use its best reasonable efforts, at the Company’s request and expense, to assist the Company in obtaining such information with respect to the American Depositary Shares; provided that nothing herein shall be interpreted as obligating the Depositary to provide or obtain any such information not provided to the Depositary by such Owners.

Each of the Depositary and the Company hereby confirms to the other that for as long as this Deposit Agreement is in effect, it shall furnish the CVM and the Central Bank, at any time and within the period that may be determined, with any information and documents related to the American Depositary Share program and the American Depositary Shares issued hereunder. In the event that the Depositary or the Custodian shall be advised in writing by reputable independent Brazilian counsel that the Depositary or Custodian reasonably could be subject to criminal, or material, as reasonably determined by the Depositary, civil, liabilities as a result of the Company having failed to provide such information or documents reasonably available only through the Company, the Depositary shall have the right to terminate this Deposit Agreement, upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Owners and the Company, and the Depositary shall not be subject to any liability hereunder on account of such termination or such determination. The effect of any such termination of this Deposit Agreement shall be as provided in Section 6.02.

ARTICLE 4. THE DEPOSITED SECURITIES.

SECTION 4.01.Cash Distributions.

Whenever the Depositary or the Custodian shall receive any cash dividend or other cash distribution on any Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall, after any necessary conversion of such distribution into Dollars pursuant to Section 4.05 and after fixing a record date pursuant to Section 4.06, as promptly as practicable, distribute dividend checks or otherwise pay or distribute the amount thus received (net of the fees and expenses of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.09) to the Owners of Receipts entitled thereto in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by them respectively;provided,however, that the Depositary shall make appropriate adjustments in the amounts so distributed in respect of any amounts withheld or requested to be withheld by the Company, the Custodian or the Depositary from any such distribution on account of (i) taxes or other governmental charges including, but not limited to, withholding taxes referred to in Section 4.11, or (ii) reasonable expenses of the Depositary in the conversion of Foreign Currency into Dollars pursuant to Section 4.05. The Depositary shall distribute only such amount, however, as can be distributed without distributing to any Owner a fraction of one cent. Any such fractional amounts shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent and so distributed to Owners entitled thereto.

SECTION 4.02.Distributions Other Than Cash, Shares or Rights.

Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.11 and 5.09, whenever the Depositary or the Custodian shall receive any distribution other than cash, Shares or rights upon any Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall, as promptly as practicable, cause the securities or property received by it to be distributed to the Owners, as of the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.06, of Receipts entitled thereto in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by them as of such date in any manner that the Depositary may, following consultation with the Company, reasonably deem equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution;provided,however, that if the Company shall so direct or if, in the reasonable opinion of the Depositary such distribution cannot be made proportionately among such Owners, or if for any other reason (including but not limited to any requirement that the Company or the Depositary withhold an amount on account of taxes or other governmental charges or that such securities must be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 in order to be distributed to Owners) the Depositary, in its reasonable opinion, deems such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may, following consultation with the Company to the extent practicable, adopt such method as it may deem lawful, equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the public or private sale of the securities or other property thus received, or any part thereof, and the net proceeds of any such sale (net of the fees and expenses of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.09) shall be as promptly as practicable distributed by the Depositary to the Owners entitled thereto as in the case of a distribution received in cash;provided,however, that any unsold balance of such securities or property shall be distributed by the Depositary to the Owners entitled thereto, if such distribution is feasible without withholding for or on account of any taxes or other governmental charges and without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, in accordance with such lawful, equitable and practicable method as the Depositary may have adopted;providedfurther,however, that no distribution to Owners shall be unreasonably delayed by any action of the Depositary or any of its agents. To the extent such securities or other property, or the net proceeds thereof, is not effectively distributed to Owners as provided herein, the same shall constitute Deposited Securities and each American Depositary Share shall thereafter also represent its proportionate interest in such securities or other property or net proceeds. The Depositary may withhold any distribution of securities under this Section 4.02 if it has not received reasonably satisfactory assurances from the Company that the distribution does not require registration under the Securities Act of 1933. The Depositary may sell, by public or private sale, an amount of securities or other property it would otherwise distribute under this Section 4.02 that is sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in respect of that distribution.

SECTION 4.03.Distributions in Shares.

If any distribution upon any Deposited Securities consists of a dividend in, or distribution without payment of any subscription price of, Shares, including pursuant to any program under which holders of Deposited Securities may elect to receive cash or Shares, the Depositary may, and shall if the Company so requests, execute and deliver and, if applicable, cause the Registrar to countersign, as promptly as practicable, additional Receipts evidencing American Depositary Shares representing the amount of Shares received as such dividend or distribution and distribute to the Owners, as of the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.06, of Receipts entitled thereto in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by them as of such date, Receipts evidencing additional American Depositary Shares, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement with respect to the deposit of Shares and the issuance of Receipts, including the withholding of any tax or other governmental charge as provided in Section 4.11 and the payment of fees of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.09 (and the Depositary may sell, by public or private sale, an amount of the Shares received sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in respect of that distribution). The Depositary may withhold any such distribution if it has not received adequate assurances from the Company that such distribution does not require registration under the Securities Act of 1933;provided,however, that no distribution to Owners pursuant to this Section shall be unreasonably delayed by any action of the Depositary or the Custodian. In lieu of delivering Receipts for fractional American Depositary Shares, the Depositary shall sell the amount of Shares representing the aggregate of such fractions and distribute the net proceeds, all in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 or take such other action, with the approval of the Company, as may be appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall so direct or if in the reasonable opinion of the Depositary such distribution cannot be made or if for any reason (including, but not limited to, any requirement that the Company, the Custodian or the Depositary withhold an amount on account for taxes or other governmental charges or that such Shares must be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 in order to be distributed to Owner) the Depositary, in its reasonable opinion, determines that a distribution in Shares is not feasible or may not be legally made to some or all Owners, the Depositary may, following consultation with the Company, adopt such method as it may deem lawful, equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, all in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02, or take such other action, with the approval of the Company, as may be appropriate. If additional Receipts are not so distributed, each American Depositary Share shall thenceforth also represent the additional Shares distributed with respect to the Deposited Securities represented thereby.

SECTION 4.04.Rights Distributions.

In the event that the Company shall offer or cause to be offered to the holders of any Deposited Securities any rights to subscribe for additional Shares or any rights of any other nature, the Depositary shall (after consultation with the Company as to the procedure to be followed) make, as promptly as practicable, such rights available to any Owners, including the distribution of warrants or other instruments therefor in such form as it deems appropriate, or dispose of such rights on behalf of any Owners and distribute, as promptly as practicable, the net proceeds in Dollars to such Owners,but only pursuant to a separate agreement to be entered into between the Company and the Depositary setting forth the conditions and procedures that shall apply to that particular offering. If, by the terms of such rights offering or by reason of applicable law, the Depositary may neither make such rights available to any Owners, nor dispose of such rights and distribute the net proceeds to such Owners, then the Depositary shall allow the rights to lapse. If, at the time of the offering of any rights the Depositary determines, following consultation with the Company, that it is lawful and feasible to make such rights available to certain Owners but not to other Owners, (i) the Depositary shall, pursuant to an agreement as described above, distribute, as promptly as practicable, to every Owner with respect to whom it determines the distribution to be lawful and feasible, in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by such Owner, warrants or other instruments therefor in such form as it deems appropriate and (ii) in respect of Owners to whom the Depositary determines the distribution not to be lawful or feasible, the Depositary shall use reasonable efforts to sell the rights, warrants or other instruments in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by such Owners and distribute the net proceeds of such sales (net of the fees of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.09 and all taxes and governmental charges payable in connection with such rights and subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement) to such Owners upon an averaged or other fair and practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among such Owners resulting from exchange restrictions, the date of delivery of any Receipt or otherwise.

In circumstances in which rights would not otherwise be distributed, if an Owner requests the distribution of warrants or other instruments in order to exercise the rights allocable in respect of American Depositary Shares of such Owner hereunder, the Depositary will make such rights available to such Owner upon written notice from the Company to the Depositary that (a) the Company has elected in its sole discretion to permit such rights to be exercised and (b) the Owner has executed such documents as the Company has determined in its sole discretion are reasonably required under applicable law. Upon instruction pursuant to such warrants or other instruments to the Depositary from such Owner to exercise such rights, upon payment by such Owner to the Depositary for the account of such Owner of an amount equal to the purchase price of the Shares or other securities to be received upon the exercise of the rights, and upon payment of the fees of the Depositary as set forth in such warrants or other instruments, the Depositary shall, on behalf of such Owner, exercise the rights and purchase such Shares or other securities, and the Company shall cause the Shares or other securities so purchased to be delivered to the Depositary on behalf of such Owner. As agent for such Owner, the Depositary will cause the Shares so purchased to be deposited pursuant to Section 2.02 of this Deposit Agreement, and shall, pursuant to Section 2.03 of this Deposit Agreement, execute and deliver Receipts to such Owner. In the case of a distribution pursuant to the this paragraph, such Receipts shall be legended, if required, in accordance with applicable U.S. laws, and shall be subject to the appropriate restrictions on sale, deposit, cancellation, and transfer under such laws.

If registration under the Securities Act of 1933 of the rights or the securities to which any rights relate is required in order for the Company or the Depositary to offer such rights to the Owners and sell the securities represented by such rights, except as otherwise provided in the preceding paragraph, the Company and the Depositary will not offer rights to Owners unless a registration statement is in effect with respect both to such rights and any securities to be received upon exercise of such rights under the Securities Act of 1933 or unless the offering and sale of such securities to such Owners are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933. Nothing in this Deposit Agreement shall create any obligation on the part of the Company to file a registration statement in respect of any rights or securities for any purpose or to endeavor to have such a registration statement declared effective.

If an Owner requests the distribution of warrants or other instruments, notwithstanding that there has been no such registration under the Securities Act of 1933, the Depositary shall not effect such distribution unless it has received an opinion from recognized counsel in the United States for the Company upon which the Depositary may rely that such distribution to such Owner is exempt from such registration.

The Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to determine that it may be lawful or feasible to make such rights available to Owners in general or any Owner in particular.

SECTION 4.05.Conversion of Foreign Currency.

Whenever the Depositary or the Custodian shall receive Foreign Currency, by way of dividends or other distributions or as the net proceeds from the sale of securities, property or rights, and if at the time of the receipt thereof the Foreign Currency so received can in the reasonable judgment of the Depositary be converted on a reasonable basis into Dollars and transferred to the United States, the Depositary shall, subject to any restrictions imposed by applicable law, regulations or permits, convert or cause to be converted, by sale or in any other manner that it may determine, such Foreign Currency into Dollars, and such Dollars shall be distributed, as promptly as practicable, net of any customary expenses incurred by the Depositary in connection with the conversion of currency pursuant to this Section 4.05, to the Owners entitled thereto as of the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.06 in accordance with any applicable provisions of Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.03 and 4.04. Such distribution may be made upon an averaged or other fair and practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among Owners resulting from exchange restrictions or otherwise. Upon the request of the Company, the Depositary shall inform the Company of the exchange rate at which Foreign Currency conversion has been carried out.

If such conversion or distribution can be effected only with the approval or license of any government or agency thereof, the Depositary shall file as promptly as practicable such application for approval or license, if any, as it may deem desirable;provided,however, that if such application involves or refers to or is made on behalf of the Company, such application shall not be filed unless approved by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

If at any time the Depositary shall determine, following consultation with the Company, that in its reasonable judgment any Foreign Currency received by the Depositary or the Custodian is not, pursuant to applicable law or otherwise, convertible on a reasonable basis into Dollars transferable to the United States, or if any approval or license of any government or agency thereof which is required for such conversion is denied or in the opinion of the Depositary, following consultation with the Company, is not obtainable, or if any such approval or license is not obtained within a reasonable period as determined by the Depositary, the Depositary may distribute such Foreign Currency (or an appropriate document evidencing the right to receive such Foreign Currency) received by the Depositary or the Custodian to such Owner or may, and will if requested in writing by an Owner, hold any amounts of Foreign Currency not distributed uninvested for the respective accounts of, the Owners entitled to receive the same, without liability for interest thereon.

If any such conversion of Foreign Currency, in whole or in part, cannot be effected for distribution to some Owners entitled thereto, the Depositary may in its discretion, following consultation with the Company, make such conversion and distribution in Dollars to the extent permissible to the Owners entitled thereto for whom such conversion and distribution is practicable and may distribute the balance of the Foreign Currency (or an appropriate document evidencing the right to receive such Foreign Currency) received by the Depositary or the Custodian to, or hold such balance uninvested and without liability for the respective accounts of, the Owners entitled thereto for whom such conversion and distribution is not practicable.

SECTION 4.06.Fixing of Record Date.

Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable or any distribution other than cash shall be made, or whenever rights shall be issued with respect to the Deposited Securities, or whenever for any reason there occurs a change in the number or type of Deposited Securities that are represented by each American Depositary Share, or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting of, or solicitation of consents or proxies from, holders of Shares or other Deposited Securities or whenever the Company or the Depositary finds it necessary or convenient in respect of any matter, the Depositary shall fix a record date (which, to the extent practicable, shall be the same as any corresponding record date set by the Company with respect to Shares) after consultation with the Company to the extent practicable if such date is to be different from a corresponding record date set by the Company for the determination of the Owners who shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution or rights, or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, or to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such meeting or in respect of any such solicitation or to receive information as to any such meeting or solicitation, or for fixing the date on or after which each American Depositary Share will represent the changed number or type of Deposited Securities, subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement. If the American Depositary Shares shall be listed on any stock exchange, then any such record date shall be fixed in accordance with any applicable rules of such stock exchange. The Depositary as promptly as practicable shall advise the Company and, if the American Depositary Shares shall be listed on any stock exchange, such stock exchange of any record date so fixed by the Depositary.

SECTION 4.07.Voting of Deposited Securities.

Upon receipt of notice of any meeting or solicitation of consents or proxies of Owners of Shares or other Deposited Securities, if requested in writing by the Company, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail to the Owners a notice, the form of which notice shall be subject to the reasonable discretion of the Depositary, which shall contain (a) such information as is contained in such notice of meeting received by the Depositary from the Company, and (b) a statement that the Owners as of the close of business on a specified record date will be entitled, subject to any applicable provision of Brazilian law, the By-laws of the Company and the provisions of the Deposited Securities, to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights, if any, pertaining to the amount of Shares or other Deposited Securities represented by their respective American Depositary Shares and (c) a statement as to the manner in which such instructions may be given, including, when applicable, an express indication that such instructions may be given or deemed given in accordance with the last sentence of this paragraph if no instruction is received. Upon the written request of an Owner on such record date, received on or before the date established by the Depositary for such purpose (the "Instruction Date"), the Depositary shall endeavor, insofar as is practicable and permitted under applicable laws and the provisions of the By-laws of the Company and the provisions of the Deposited Securities, to vote or cause to be voted the amount of Shares or other Deposited Securities represented by the American Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt in accordance with the instructions set forth in such request. The Depositary shall not, and the Depositary shall ensure that the Custodian or any of its nominees shall not, vote or attempt to exercise the right to vote that attaches to the Shares or other Deposited Securities, other than in accordance with such instructions or deemed instructions, if any. If (i) the Company instructed the Depositary to act under this Section 4.07 and gave the Depositary notice of any such meeting and details concerning the matters to be voted upon not less than 30 days prior to the meeting date and (ii) no instructions are received by the Depositary from an Owner with respect to a matter and an amount of American Depositary Shares of that Owner on or before the date established by the Depositary for such purpose, the Depositary shall deem that Owner to have instructed the Depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by the Company with respect to that matter and the amount of Deposited Securities represented by that amount of American Depositary Shares and the Depositary shall give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by the Company to vote that amount of Deposited Securities as to that matter,except that no such instruction shall be deemed given and no such discretionary proxy shall be given with respect to any matter as to which the Company informs the Depositary (and the Company agrees to provide such information as promptly as practicable in writing, if applicable) that (x) the Company does not wish such proxy given, (y) substantial opposition exists or (z) such matter materially and adversely affects the rights of holders of Shares.

In order to give Owners a reasonable opportunity to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of voting rights relating to Deposited Securities, if the Company will request the Depositary to act under this Section 4.07, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to give the Depositary notice of any such meeting and details concerning the matters to be voted upon not less than 30 days prior to the meeting date.

There can be no assurance that Owners generally or any Owner in particular will receive the notice described in the second preceding paragraph sufficiently prior to the Instruction Date to ensure that the Depositary will vote the Shares or Deposited Securities in accordance with the provisions set forth in the second preceding paragraph.

Subject to the rules of any securities exchange on which American Depositary Shares or the Deposited Securities represented thereby are listed or quoted, the Depositary shall, if requested by the Company deliver, at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such meeting, to the Company, to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer and General Counsel, copies of all instructions received from Owners in accordance with which the Depositary will vote, or cause to be voted, the Deposited Securities represented by the American Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipts at such meeting. Delivery of instructions will be made at the expense of the Company (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company and the Depositary) provided that payment of any such expense by the Company shall not be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Depositary under this Section 4.07.

SECTION 4.08.Changes Affecting Deposited Securities.

In circumstances where the provisions of Section 4.03 do not apply, upon any change in nominal value, change in par value, split-up, consolidation or other reclassification of Deposited Securities, or upon any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets affecting the Company or to which it is a party, any securities which shall be received by the Depositary or the Custodian in exchange for, conversion of, replacement or otherwise in respect of Deposited Securities shall, subject to the terms of this Deposit Agreement and applicable law, including any applicable provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, be treated as new Deposited Securities under this Deposit Agreement, and each American Depositary Share shall, subject to the terms of this Deposit Agreement and applicable law, including any applicable provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, thenceforth represent an appropriately adjusted proportional interest in the Deposited Securities so received in exchange or conversion or replacement or otherwise, unless additional or new Receipts are delivered pursuant to the following sentence. In any such case the Depositary may, and shall if the Company shall so request, execute and deliver and, if applicable, cause the Registrar to countersign additional Receipts as in the case of a stock dividend on the Shares, or call for the surrender of outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing such new Deposited Securities. Upon the occurrence of any change or other event covered by this Section with respect to the Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall give notice thereof in writing to all Owners if the event affects holdings of American Depositary Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any securities so received may not be lawfully distributed to some or all Owners, the Depositary may, following consultation with the Company to the extent practicable, sell such securities at public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper, and may allocate the net proceeds of such sale for the account of the Owners otherwise entitled to such securities upon an averaged or other practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among such Owners and distribute the net proceeds so allocated to the extent practicable as in the case of a distribution received in cash pursuant to Section 4.01.

SECTION 4.09.Reports.

The Depositary shall make available for inspection by Owners at its Corporate Trust Office any reports, notices and other communications, including any proxy solicitation material, received from the Company which are both (a) received by the Depositary, the Custodian, or a nominee of either as the holder of the Deposited Securities and (b) made generally available to the holders of such Deposited Securities by the Company, it being understood that the Company will initially provide Brazilian shareholders with such reports, notices and communications in Portuguese and will provide the Depositary with English translations thereof as promptly as practicable thereafter. If requested in writing by the Company, the Depositary shall also, promptly upon receipt from the Company, send to the Owners copies of reports, notices and communications furnished by the Company pursuant to Section 5.06. Any such reports, notices and other communications will be furnished in English or English language versions or summaries in English will be prepared when so required pursuant to any regulations of the Commission.

SECTION 4.10.Lists of Owners.

As promptly as practicable upon request by the Company, the Depositary shall furnish the Company with a list, as of a recent date, of the names, addresses and holdings of American Depositary Shares by all persons in whose names Receipts are registered on the transfer books of the Depositary and of all such persons who received such Receipts pursuant to a Pre-Release under Section 2.09 hereof.

SECTION 4.11.Withholding.

In connection with any dividend or other distribution to Owners, the Company or its agent will remit to the appropriate governmental authority or agency all amounts (if any) required under applicable law to be withheld and remitted by the Company or such agent and owing to such governmental authority or agency by the Company or such agent; and the Depositary and the Custodian will remit to the appropriate governmental authority or agency all amounts (if any) required under applicable law to be withheld and remitted by the Depositary or the Custodian and owing to such authority or agency by the Depositary or the Custodian. The Depositary shall forward to the Company or its agent such information from its records in relation to withholding from a dividend or other distribution on Deposited Securities as the Company may reasonably request to enable the Company or its agent to file necessary reports with governmental authorities or agencies, and the Company and its agent shall forward to the Depositary such information from its records in relation to withholding from a dividend or other distribution on Deposited Securities as the Depositary may reasonably request to enable the Depositary to file necessary reports with governmental authorities or agencies. In the event that the Depositary determines that any dividend or other distribution in property other than cash (including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) is subject to any tax or other governmental charge which the Depositary is obligated to withhold, the Depositary may (after consultation with the Company to the extent practicable) by public or private sale dispose of all or a portion of such property (including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) in such amounts and in such manner as the Depositary deems necessary and practicable to withhold any such taxes or charges and the Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of any such sale after deduction of such taxes or charges to the Owners entitled thereto in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by them respectively, and the Depositary shall distribute any unsold balance of such property, all in accordance with applicable provisions of this Deposit Agreement.

ARTICLE 5. THE DEPOSITARY, THE CUSTODIAN AND THE COMPANY.

SECTION 5.01.Maintenance of Office and Transfer Books by the Depositary.

Until termination of this Deposit Agreement in accordance with its terms, the Depositary shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, facilities for the execution and delivery, registration, registration of transfers, combinations and split-ups and surrender of Receipts in accordance with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement.

The Depositary shall keep in such New York City facilities books for the registration of Receipts and transfers, combinations and split-ups of Receipts which at all reasonable times shall be open for inspection by the Company and the Owners;provided,however, that such inspection shall not be for the purpose of communicating with Owners in the interest of a business or object other than the business of the Company or a matter related to this Deposit Agreement or the Receipts. The Depositary may close the transfer books at any time or from time to time when transfer agents located in The City of New York generally close their transfer books, and at any other time, when reasonably deemed expedient by the Depositary in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, following consultation with the Company to the extent practicable and with written notice to the Company as promptly as practicable if prior consultation is not practicable, or at the request of the Company.

If any Receipts or the American Depositary Shares evidenced thereby are listed or traded on one or more stock exchanges in the United States, the Depositary shall act as Registrar or, upon notice to the Company, appoint a Registrar or, one or more co-registrars for registry of such Receipts in accordance with any requirements of such exchange or exchanges and to keep books for the registration of Receipts and transfers, combinations and split-ups of Receipts as provided in this Section 5.01.

The Depositary shall cause each Registrar or co-registrar appointed under this Section 5.01 to give notice in writing to the Depositary accepting such appointment and agreeing to be bound by the applicable terms of this Deposit Agreement.

SECTION 5.02.Prevention or Delay in Performance by the Depositary or the Company.

Neither the Depositary nor the Company nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or affiliates shall incur any liability to any Owner or Holder (i) if by reason of any provision of any present or future law or regulation of the United States or any other country, or of any governmental or regulatory authority or stock exchange, or by reason of any provision, present or future, of the articles of association or similar document of the Company, or by reason of any provision of any securities issued or distributed by the Company, or any offering or distribution thereof, or by reason of any act of God or war or terrorism or other circumstances beyond its control, the Depositary or the Company shall be prevented, delayed or forbidden from, or be subject to any civil or criminal penalty on account of, doing or performing any act or thing which by the terms of this Deposit Agreement or the Deposited Securities it is provided shall be done or performed, (ii) by reason of any non-performance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act or thing which by the terms of this Deposit Agreement it is provided shall or may be done or performed, (iii) by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Deposit Agreement, (iv) for the inability of any Owner or Holder to benefit from any distribution, offering, right or other benefit which is made available to holders of Deposited Securities but is not, under the terms of this Deposit Agreement, made available to Owners or Holders, or (v) for any special, consequential or punitive damages for any breach of the terms of this Deposit Agreement. Where, by the terms of a distribution pursuant to Section 4.01, 4.02 or 4.03, or an offering or distribution pursuant to Section 4.04, or for any other reason, such distribution or offering may not be made available to Owners, and the Depositary may not dispose of such distribution or offering on behalf of such Owners and make the net proceeds available to such Owners, then the Depositary shall not make such distribution or offering, and shall allow any rights, if applicable, to lapse.

SECTION 5.03.Obligations of the Depositary, the Custodian and the Company.

The Company assumes no obligation nor shall it be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to any Owner or Holder, except that the Company agrees to perform its obligations specifically set forth in this Deposit Agreement without negligence or bad faith.

Each of the Company and its agents and their respective officers, directors, employees and affiliates assumes no obligation nor shall it be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to the Custodian or any agent of the Depositary or the Custodian, except under Section 5.08.

The Depositary assumes no obligation nor shall it be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to any Owner or Holder (including, without limitation, liability with respect to the validity or worth of the Deposited Securities), except that the Depositary agrees to perform its obligations specifically set forth in this Deposit Agreement without negligence or bad faith.

Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any Deposited Securities or in respect of the American Depositary Shares on behalf of any Owner or Holder or any other person.

Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall be liable for any action or nonaction by it in reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants, any person presenting Shares for deposit, any Owner or any other person believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such advice or information.

Each of the Depositary and its agents and the Company and its agents may rely and shall be protected in acting upon notice, request, direction or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties.

The Depositary shall not be liable for any acts or omissions made by a successor depositary whether in connection with a previous act or omission of the Depositary or in connection with any matter arising wholly after the removal or resignation of the Depositary, provided that in connection with the issue out of which such potential liability arises the Depositary performed its obligations without negligence or bad faith while it acted as Depositary.

Neither the Company nor the Depositary shall be liable for the acts or omissions of any securities depository, clearing agency or settlement system in connection with or arising out of book-entry settlement of Deposited Securities or otherwise.

The Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instructions to vote any of the Deposited Securities, or for the manner in which any such vote is cast or the effect of any such vote, provided that any such action or nonaction is in good faith.

Except as otherwise provided in this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary will not release any information regarding the Company without prior written approval from the Company;provided,however, that the Depositary may release, without prior approval from the Company, information made publicly available by the Company if the form and substance of such information has not been altered or modified in any way other than by the Company.

No disclaimer of liability under the Securities Act of 1933 is intended by any provision of this Deposit Agreement.

SECTION 5.04.Resignation and Removal of the Depositary; Appointment of Successor Depositary.

The Depositary may at any time resign as Depositary hereunder by written notice of its election so to do delivered to the Company, such resignation to take effect upon the appointment of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided.

The Depositary may at any time be removed by the Company by 60 days prior written notice of such removal, to become effective upon the later of (i) the 60th day after delivery of the notice to the Depositary and (ii) the appointment of a successor depositary and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided.

In case at any time the Depositary acting hereunder shall resign or be removed, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to appoint a successor depositary, which shall be a bank or trust company having an office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York;provided,however, that in the case of a resignation by the Depositary, the Company's "best efforts" obligation to appoint a replacement depositary shall be limited to an appointment which is on terms no less favorable than those contained herein and at no greater expense as set forth in Section 5.09 hereto. Every successor depositary shall execute and deliver to its predecessor and to the Company an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, satisfactory in form and substance to the Company, and thereupon such successor depositary, without any further act or deed, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor; however, such predecessor, upon payment of all sums due to it from the Company and on the written request of the Company, shall execute and deliver an instrument satisfactory in form and substance to the Company transferring to such successor all rights and powers of such predecessor hereunder, shall duly assign, transfer and deliver all right, title and interest in the Deposited Securities to such successor, and shall deliver to such successor all materials necessary to enable the successor depositary to carry out the responsibilities of the Depositary hereunder, including, but not limited to, a list of the Owners of all outstanding Receipts. Any such successor depositary shall promptly mail notice of its appointment to the Owners. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any resignation or removal and appointment of a successor Depositary shall not relieve the prior depositary or the Company from its obligations and liabilities pursuant to Section 5.08.

Any corporation into or with which the Depositary may be merged, converted or consolidated shall be the successor of the Depositary without the execution or filing of any document or any further act, it being understood that the Company shall be informed in writing of such an event.

SECTION 5.05.The Custodian.

The Custodian or its successor, which shall be an accredited intermediary acting through a specified office located in São Paulo, in acting hereunder shall be subject at all times and in all respects to the directions of the Depositary and shall be responsible solely to it. The Custodian may resign and be discharged from its duties hereunder by notice of such resignation delivered to the Depositary at least 30 days prior to the date on which such resignation is to become effective. If the Depositary receives notice of the resignation of the Custodian and, upon the effectiveness of such resignation there would be no Custodian acting hereunder, the Depositary shall, promptly after receiving such notice, after consultation with the Company to the extent practicable, appoint a substitute custodian, which shall be an accredited intermediary acting through a specified office located in São Paulo and which shall thereafter be the Custodian hereunder. The Depositary in its discretion, after consultation with the Company to the extent practicable, may appoint a substitute custodian, which shall be an accredited intermediary acting through a specified office located in São Paulo, which shall thereafter be the Custodian hereunder. Upon demand of the Depositary, the Custodian shall transfer all Deposited Securities held by it and all other books and records maintained by it with respect to its function as the Custodian hereunder as are requested of it to the substitute custodian. The Depositary shall cause the substitute custodian, forthwith upon its appointment, to deliver to the Depositary an acceptance of such appointment in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositary. Promptly upon any such change, the Depositary shall give notice in writing to the Company of the name, the address and the appointment of a Custodian not named in Receipts.

The Depositary agrees with the Company that at no time shall there be more than one Custodian acting in connection with this Deposit Agreement.

Upon the appointment of any successor depositary hereunder, the Custodian then acting hereunder shall forthwith become, without any further act or writing, the agent hereunder of such successor depositary and the appointment of such successor depositary shall in no way impair the authority of the Custodian hereunder, but the successor depositary so appointed shall, nevertheless, on the written request of the Custodian or as required by Brazilian law, execute and deliver to the Custodian all such instruments as may be proper to give to the Custodian full and complete power and authority as agent hereunder of such successor depositary.

SECTION 5.06.Notices and Reports.

On or before the first date on which the Company gives notice, by publication or otherwise, of any meeting of holders of Shares or other Deposited Securities, or of any adjourned meeting of such holders, or of the taking of any action in respect of any cash or other distributions or the offering of any rights, the Company agrees to transmit to the Depositary and the Custodian, as soon as practicable, a copy of the notice thereof in English, but otherwise in the form given or to be given to holders of Shares or other Deposited Securities.

The Company shall furnish to the Depositary in English annual reports (including audited consolidated financial statements), semi-annual reports (including unaudited interim consolidated financial information), and copies or summaries in English of any other reports, notices and communications that are made generally available by the Company to holders of Deposited Securities. At the written request of the Company, the Depositary will arrange for the mailing of copies of such annual and semi-annual reports and copies or summaries of any other such reports, notices and communications to all Owners. The Company will timely provide the Depositary with such quantity of such reports and summaries as shall be requested by the Depositary from time to time in order for the Depositary to effect such mailings.

SECTION 5.07.Issuance or Deposit of Additional Shares, etc.

If the Company or any affiliate of the Company determines to make any issuance or distribution of (1) additional Shares, (2) rights to subscribe for Shares, (3) securities convertible into Shares, or (4) rights to subscribe for such securities (each a “Distribution”), the Company shall notify the Depositary in writing in English as promptly as practicable and in any event before the Distribution starts and, if requested in writing by the Depositary, the Company shall promptly furnish to the Depositary a written opinion from U.S. counsel for the Company that is reasonably satisfactory to the Depositary, stating whether or not the Distribution requires, or, if made in the United States, would require, registration under the Securities Act of 1933. If, in the opinion of that counsel, the Distribution requires, or, if made in the United States, would require, registration under the Securities Act of 1933, that counsel shall furnish to the Depositary a written opinion as to whether or not there is a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 in effect that will cover that Distribution.

The Company agrees with the Depositary that neither the Company nor any company controlled by, controlling or under common control with the Company will at any time deposit any Shares, either originally issued or previously issued and reacquired by the Company or any such affiliate, unless a registration statement is in effect as to such Shares under the Securities Act of 1933.

Nothing in this Section 5.07 or elsewhere in this Deposit Agreement shall create any obligation on the part of the Company or the Depositary to file a registration statement in respect of any such securities or rights or to endeavor to have such a registration statement declared effective. To the extent the Company in its discretion deems it necessary or advisable in order to avoid any requirement to register such additional securities under the Securities Act of 1933, it may prevent Owners in the United States from purchasing any such additional securities (whether pursuant to preemptive rights or otherwise) and direct the Depositary not to accept certain Shares for deposit for such period of time following the issuance of such additional securities and to adopt such other specific measures as the Company may reasonably request in writing.

SECTION 5.08.Indemnification.

The Company agrees to indemnify the Depositary and the Custodian and any agent of the Depositary or the Custodian appointed hereunder and the respective officers, directors, and employees thereof (the "indemnified persons") against, and hold each of them harmless from, any liability or expense (including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) which may arise out of or in connection with acts performed or omitted in accordance or in connection with the provisions of this Deposit Agreement and of the Receipts, as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, (i) by such indemnified persons except for any liability or expense arising out of the negligence or bad faith of any of them, or (ii) by the Company or any of its agents (other than the indemnified persons), and their respective officers, directors and employees authorized to act on their behalf.

The indemnities contained in the preceding paragraph shall not extend to any liability or expense which arises solely and exclusively out of a Pre-Release (as defined in Section 2.09) of a Receipt or Receipts in accordance with Section 2.09 and which would not otherwise have arisen had such Receipt or Receipts not been the subject of a Pre-Release pursuant to Section 2.09;provided,however, that the indemnities provided in the preceding paragraph shall apply to any liability or expense (i) to the extent that such liability or expense would have arisen had a Receipt or Receipts not been the subject of a Pre-Release, or (ii) which may arise out of any misstatement or alleged misstatement or omission or alleged omission in any registration statement, proxy statement, prospectus (or placement memorandum), or preliminary prospectus (or preliminary placement memorandum) relating to the offer or sale of American Depositary Shares, except to the extent any such liability or expense arises out of (i) information relating to the Depositary or the Custodian (other than the Company), as applicable, furnished in writing and not materially changed or altered by the Company expressly for use in any of the foregoing documents, or, (ii) if such information is provided, the failure to state a material fact necessary to make the information provided not misleading.

The Depositary agrees to indemnify the Company, its officers, its directors, employees, agents and affiliates against and hold them harmless from any liability or expense (including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) which may arise out of acts performed or omitted by the Depositary or any Registrar or Custodian or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates due to their respective negligence or bad faith.

If an action, proceeding (including, but not limited to, any governmental investigation), claim or dispute (collectively, a "Proceeding") in respect of which indemnity may be sought by either party is brought or asserted against the other party, the party seeking indemnification (the "Indemnitee") shall as promptly as practicable (and in no event more than twenty (20) days after receipt of notice of such Proceeding) notify in writing the party obligated to provide such indemnification (the "Indemnitor") of such Proceeding. The failure of the Indemnitee to so notify the Indemnitor shall not impair the Indemnitee's ability to seek indemnification from the Indemnitor (but only for costs, expenses and liabilities incurred after such notice) unless such failure adversely affects the Indemnitor's ability to adequately oppose or defend such Proceeding. Upon receipt of such notice from the Indemnitee, the Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate in such Proceeding and, to the extent that it shall so desire and provided no conflict of interest exists as described in subclause (b) below, or there are no other defenses available to Indemnitee as specified in subclause (b) below, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee (in which case all attorney's fees and expenses shall be borne by the Indemnitor and the Indemnitor shall in good faith defend the Indemnitee). The Indemnitee shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by the Indemnitee unless (a) the Indemnitor agrees in writing to pay such fees and expenses, (b) the Indemnitee shall have reasonably and in good faith concluded that there is a conflict of interest between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such action, including but not limited to that there may be legal defenses available to the Indemnitee that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnitor, or (c) the Indemnitor fails, within ten (10) days prior to the date the first response or appearance is required to be made in such Proceeding, to assume the defense of such Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. No compromise or settlement of such Proceeding may be effected by either party without the other party's consent unless (i) there is no finding or admission of any violation of law and no material adverse effect on any other claims that may be made against such other party and (ii) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the party seeking the compromise or settlement. Neither party shall have any liability with respect to any compromise or settlement effected without its consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnitor shall have no obligation to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitee from any loss, expense or liability incurred by the Indemnitee as a result of a default judgment entered against the Indemnitee unless such judgment was entered after the Indemnitor agreed, in writing, to assume the defense of such Proceeding.

The obligations set forth in this Section 5.08 shall survive the termination of this Deposit Agreement and the succession or substitution of any indemnified person.

SECTION 5.09.Charges of Depositary.

The Company will not pay any fees, expenses or other charges of the Depositary or of any Registrar except in accordance with agreements in writing entered into between the Depositary and the Company from time to time. The Depositary shall present its statement for such charges and expenses to the Company once every three months. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the following paragraph, the fees, charges and expenses of the Custodian are for the sole account of the Depositary.

The following charges shall be incurred by any party depositing or withdrawing Shares or by any party surrendering American Depositary Shares or to whom American Depositary Shares are issued (including, without limitation, issuance pursuant to a stock dividend or stock split declared by the Company or an exchange of stock regarding the American Depositary Shares or Deposited Securities or a delivery of American Depositary Shares pursuant to Section 4.03), or by Owners, as applicable: (1) taxes and other governmental charges, (2) such registration fees as may from time to time be in effect for the registration of transfers of Shares generally on the Share register of the Company or Share Registrar and applicable to transfers of Shares to or from the name of the Depositary or its nominee or the Custodian or its nominee on the making of deposits or withdrawals hereunder, (3) such cable, telex and facsimile transmission expenses as are expressly provided in this Deposit Agreement, (4) such expenses as are incurred by the Depositary in the conversion of foreign currency pursuant to Section 4.05, (5) a fee of $5.00 or less per 100 American Depositary Shares (or portion thereof) for the delivery of American Depositary Shares pursuant to Section 2.03, 4.03 or 4.04 and the surrender of American Depositary Shares pursuant to Section 2.05 or 6.02, (6) a fee of $.02 or less per American Depositary Share (or portion thereof) for any cash distribution made pursuant to this Deposit Agreement, including, but not limited to Sections 4.01 through 4.04 hereof, (7) a fee for the distribution of securities pursuant to Section 4.02, such fee being in an amount equal to the fee for the execution and delivery of American Depositary Shares referred to above which would have been charged as a result of the deposit of such securities (for purposes of this clause 7 treating all such securities as if they were Shares) but which securities are instead distributed by the Depositary to Owners), (8) in addition to any fee charged under clause 6, a fee of $.02 or less per American Depositary Share (or portion thereof) per annum for depositary services, which will be payable as provided in clause 9 below, and (9) any other charges payable by the Depositary, any of the Depositary's agents, including the Custodian, or the agents of the Depositary's agents in connection with the servicing of Shares or other Deposited Securities (which charge shall be assessed against Owners as of the date or dates set by the Depositary in accordance with Section 4.06 and shall be payable at the sole discretion of the Depositary by billing such Owners for such charge or by deducting such charge from one or more cash dividends or other cash distributions).

The Depositary may collect any of its fees by deduction from any cash distribution payable to Owners that are obligated to pay those fees.

The Depositary, subject to Section 2.09 hereof and applicable laws , rules and regulations, may own and deal in any class of securities of the Company and its affiliates and in American Depositary Shares.

SECTION 5.10.Retention of Depositary Documents.

Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein, the Depositary is authorized to destroy those documents, records, bills and other data compiled during the term of this Deposit Agreement at the times permitted by the laws or regulations governing the Depositary unless the Company requests that such papers be retained for a longer period or turned over to the Company or to a successor depositary.

SECTION 5.11.Exclusivity.

Subject to the provisions of Section 5.04, the Company agrees not to appoint any other depositary for issuance of American or global depositary shares or receipts so long as The Bank of New York Mellon is acting as Depositary hereunder.

SECTION 6.01.Amendment.

The form of the Receipts and any provisions of this Deposit Agreement may at any time and from time to time be amended by agreement in writing between the Company and the Depositary in any respect which they may deem necessary or desirable.

Every Owner at the time any amendment so becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such Receipt, to consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as amended thereby. In no event shall any amendment impair the right of the Owner of any Receipt to surrender such Receipt and receive therefor the Deposited Securities represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law.

If any Receipts shall remain outstanding after the date of termination, the Depositary thereafter shall discontinue the registration of transfers, combinations and split-ups of Receipts, shall suspend the distribution of dividends to the Owners thereof, shall not accept deposits of Shares (and shall instruct the Custodian to act accordingly), and shall not give any further notices or perform any further acts under this Deposit Agreement, except that the Depositary shall continue to collect dividends and other distributions pertaining to Deposited Securities, shall sell property and rights and convert Deposited Securities into cash as provided in this Deposit Agreement, and shall continue to deliver Deposited Securities, together with any dividends or other distributions received with respect thereto and the net proceeds of the sale of any rights or other property, in exchange for Receipts surrendered to the Depositary (after deducting, in each case, the fee of the Depositary for the surrender of a Receipt, any expenses for the account of the Owner of such Receipt in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement, and any applicable taxes or governmental charges).

Without limitation of the foregoing, neither the Depositary nor the Custodian shall accept for deposit under the Deposit Agreement any Shares (i) which, to the actual knowledge of the Depositary, are required to be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 prior to public sale in the United States, unless a registration statement is in effect as to such Shares or (ii) the deposit of which would, to the actual knowledge of the Depositary, infringe any provisions of Brazilian law.

4.LIABILITY OF OWNER FOR TAXES.

If any tax or other governmental charge shall become payable with respect to any Receipt or any Deposited Securities represented by any Receipt, such tax or other governmental charge shall be payable by the Owner of such Receipt to the Depositary. The Depositary may refuse, and the Company shall be under no obligation, to effect registration of transfer of all or part of such Receipt or any withdrawal of Deposited Securities represented thereby until such payment is made, and may withhold any dividends or other distributions or, after attempting by reasonable means to notify such Owner, may sell for the account of the Owner thereof any part or all of the Deposited Securities represented by such Receipt, and may apply such dividends or other distributions or the proceeds of any such sale to payment of such tax or other governmental charge, the Owner of such Receipt remaining liable for any deficiency.

5.WARRANTIES ON DEPOSIT OF SHARES.

The Depositary may withhold the delivery or registration of transfer of any Receipt, the distribution of any dividend or other distribution or sale of rights or of the proceeds thereof, or the delivery of any Deposited Securities until such proof or other information is provided, such certificates are executed or such representations and warranties are made pertaining to such Receipt to the satisfaction of the Company and the Depositary.

The Depositary shall provide the Company, upon the Company's request and in a timely manner, with copies of any information or other material which it receives pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Deposit Agreement, to the extent that disclosure is permitted under applicable law. Each Owner agrees to provide any information requested by the Company or the Depositary pursuant to Section 3.01 of the Deposit Agreement.

No Share shall be accepted for deposit unless accompanied by evidence satisfactory to the Depositary that any necessary approval has been granted by any governmental body in Brazil which is then performing the function of the regulation of currency exchange.

7.CHARGES OF DEPOSITARY.

The Company will not pay any fees, expenses or other charges of the Depositary or of any Registrar except in accordance with agreements in writing entered into between the Depositary and the Company from time to time. The Depositary shall present its statement for such charges and expenses to the Company once every three months. The fees, charges and expenses of the Custodian are for the sole account of the Depositary.

The following charges, to the extent permitted by applicable law and stock exchange regulations, shall be incurred by any party depositing or withdrawing Shares or by any party surrendering Receipts or to whom Receipts are issued (including, without limitation, issuance pursuant to a stock dividend or stock split declared by the Company or an exchange of stock regarding the American Depositary Shares or Deposited Securities or a delivery of American Depositary Shares pursuant to Section 4.03 of the Deposit Agreement), or by Owners, as applicable: (1) taxes and other governmental charges, (2) such registration fees as may from time to time be in effect for the registration of transfers of Shares generally on the Share register of the Company or Share Registrar and applicable to transfers of Shares to or from the name of the Depositary or its nominee or the Custodian or its nominee on the making of deposits or withdrawals under the terms of the Deposit Agreement, (3) such cable, telex and facsimile transmission expenses as are expressly provided in the Deposit Agreement, (4) such expenses as are incurred by the Depositary in the conversion of foreign currency pursuant to Section 4.05 of the Deposit Agreement, (5) a fee of $5.00 or less per 100 American Depositary Shares (or portion thereof) for the delivery of American Depositary Shares pursuant to Section 2.03, 4.03 or 4.04 of the Deposit Agreement and the surrender of American Depositary Shares pursuant to Section 2.05 or 6.02 of the Deposit Agreement, (6) a fee of $.02 or less per American Depositary Share (or portion thereof) for any cash distribution made pursuant to the Deposit Agreement, including, but not limited to Sections 4.01 through 4.04 of the Deposit Agreement, except for distributions of cash dividends, (7) a fee for the distribution of securities pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Deposit Agreement, such fee being in an amount equal to the fee for the execution and delivery of American Depositary Shares referred to above which would have been charged as a result of the deposit of such securities (for purposes of this clause 7 treating all such securities as if they were Shares) but which securities are instead distributed by the Depositary to Owners, (8) in addition to any fee charged under clause 6, a fee of $.02 or less per American Depositary Share (or portion thereof) per annum for depositary services, which will be payable as provided in clause 9 below, and (9) any other charges payable by the Depositary, any of the Depositary's agents, including the Custodian, or the agents of the Depositary's agents in connection with the servicing of Shares or other Deposited Securities (which charge shall be assessed against Owners as of the date or dates set by the Depositary in accordance with Section 4.06 of the Deposit Agreement and shall be payable at the sole discretion of the Depositary by billing such Owners for such charge or by deducting such charge from one or more cash dividends or other cash distributions).

The Depositary, subject to Section 2.09 of the Deposit Agreement and applicable laws , rules and regulations, may own and deal in any class of securities of the Company and its affiliates and in American Depositary Shares.

8.PRE-RELEASE OF RECEIPTS.

Unless requested in writing by the Company to cease doing so, the Depositary may, notwithstanding Section 2.03 of the Deposit Agreement, execute and deliver Receipts prior to the receipt of Shares pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Deposit Agreement (a "Pre-Release"). The Depositary may, pursuant to Section 2.05 of the Deposit Agreement, deliver Shares upon the receipt and cancellation of Receipts which have been Pre-Released, whether or not such cancellation is prior to the termination of such Pre-Release or the Depositary knows that such Receipt has been Pre-Released. The Depositary may receive Receipts in lieu of Shares in satisfaction of a Pre-Release. Each Pre-Release will be (a) preceded or accompanied by a written representation and agreement from the person to whom Receipts or Shares are to be delivered (a "Pre-Releasee"), that such Pre-Releasee, or its customer, (i) as of the time of such transaction, owns the Shares or Receipts to be remitted, as the case may be, (ii) assigns all beneficial right, title and interest in such Shares or Receipts, as the case may be, to the Depositary in its capacity as such and for the benefit of the Owners, and (iii) will not take any action with respect to such Shares or Receipts, as the case may be, that is inconsistent with the transfer of beneficial ownership (including, without the consent of the Depositary, disposing of such Shares or Receipts, as the case may be), other than in satisfaction of such Pre-Release, (b) at all times fully collateralized with cash, U.S. government securities or such other collateral as the Depositary determines, in good faith, will provide substantially similar liquidity and security, (c) terminable by the Depositary on not more than five (5) business days’ notice, and (d) subject to such further indemnities and credit regulations as the Depositary deems appropriate. The Company will not incur any liability to any Owners or holders of a Receipt as a result of actions taken by the Depositary pursuant to Section 2.09 of the Deposit Agreement. The number of American Depositary Shares which are outstanding at any time as a result of Pre-Release will not normally exceed thirty percent (30%) of the Shares deposited under the Deposit Agreement;provided,however, that the Depositary reserves the right to disregard such limit from time to time as it deems reasonably appropriate and may, with the prior written consent of the Company, change such limit for the purposes of general application. The Depositary will also set dollar limits with respect to Pre-Release transactions to be entered into under the Deposit Agreement with any particular Pre-Releasee on a case-by-case basis as the Depositary deems appropriate. For purposes of enabling the Depositary to fulfill its obligations to the Owners under the Deposit Agreement, the collateral referred to in clause (b) above shall be held by the Depositary as security for the performance of the Pre-Releasee's obligations to the Depositary in connection with a Pre-Release transaction, including the Pre-Releasee's obligation to deliver Shares or Receipts upon termination of a Pre-Release transaction (and shall not, for the avoidance of doubt, constitute Deposited Securities under the Deposit Agreement).

The Depositary may retain for its own account any compensation received by it in connection with the foregoing.

9.TITLE TO RECEIPTS.

It is a condition of this Receipt that title to this Receipt (and to the American Depositary Shares evidenced thereby), when such Receipt is properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer, shall be transferable by delivery as a certificated security in accordance with New York law;provided,however, that the Depositary, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, may treat the Owner hereof as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of determining the person entitled to any distribution of dividends or other distributions or to any notice provided for in the Deposit Agreement and for all other purposes and neither the Depositary nor the Company shall have any obligation or be subject to any liability under the Deposit Agreement to any holder of a Receipt unless such holder is the Owner thereof.

10.VALIDITY OF RECEIPT.

This Receipt shall not be entitled to any benefits under the Deposit Agreement or be valid or enforceable for any purpose, unless such Receipt shall have been executed by the Depositary by the manual signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Depositary or, if a Registrar for the Receipts shall have been appointed and the Depositary shall have signed by facsimile signature, countersigned by the manual signature of a duly authorized officer of the Registrar.

11.REPORTS; INSPECTION OF TRANSFER BOOKS.

The Company is subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and accordingly files certain reports and information with the Securities and Exchange Commission (hereinafter called the "Commission"). Such reports and communications will be available for inspection and copying at the public reference facilities maintained by the Commission located at 100 F. Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549.

The Depositary shall make available for inspection by Owners at its Corporate Trust Office any reports, notices and other communications, including any proxy solicitation material, received from the Company which are both (a) received by the Depositary, the Custodian, or a nominee of either as the holder of the Deposited Securities and (b) made generally available to the holders of such Deposited Securities by the Company, it being understood that the Company will initially provide Brazilian shareholders with such reports, notices and communications in Portuguese and will provide the Depositary with English translations thereof as promptly as practicable thereafter. If requested in writing by the Company, the Depositary shall also, promptly upon receipt from the Company, send to the Owners copies of reports, notices and communications furnished by the Company pursuant to Section 5.06 of the Deposit Agreement. Any such reports, notices and other communications will be furnished in English or English language versions or summaries in English will be prepared when so required pursuant to any regulations of the Commission.

The Depositary shall keep in such New York City facilities books for the registration of Receipts and transfers, combinations and split-ups of Receipts which at all reasonable times shall be open for inspection by the Company and the Owners;provided,however, that such inspection shall not be for the purpose of communicating with Owners in the interest of a business or object other than the business of the Company or a matter related to the Deposit Agreement or the Receipts. The Depositary may close the transfer books at any time or from time to time when transfer agents located in The City of New York generally close their transfer books, and at any other time, when reasonably deemed expedient by the Depositary in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder, following consultation with the Company to the extent practicable and with written notice to the Company as promptly as practicable if prior consultation is not practicable, or at the request of the Company.

12.DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS.

Whenever the Depositary or the Custodian shall receive any cash dividend or other cash distribution on any Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall, after any necessary conversion of such distribution into Dollars pursuant to Section 4.05 of the Deposit Agreement and after fixing a record date pursuant to Section 4.06 of the Deposit Agreement, as promptly as practicable, distribute dividend checks or otherwise pay or distribute the amount thus received (net of the fees and expenses of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.09 of the Deposit Agreement) to the Owners of Receipts entitled thereto in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by them respectively;provided,however, that the Depositary shall make appropriate adjustments in the amounts so distributed in respect of any amounts withheld or requested to be withheld by the Company, the Custodian or the Depositary from any such distribution on account of (i) taxes or other governmental charges including, but not limited to, withholding taxes referred to in Section 4.11 of the Deposit Agreement, or (ii) reasonable expenses of the Depositary in the conversion of Foreign Currency into Dollars pursuant to Section 4.05 of the Deposit Agreement. The Depositary shall distribute only such amount, however, as can be distributed without distributing to any Owner a fraction of one cent. Any such fractional amounts shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent and so distributed to Owners entitled thereto.

Subject to the provisions of Sections 4.11 and 5.09 of the Deposit Agreement, whenever the Depositary or the Custodian shall receive any distribution other than cash, Shares or rights upon any Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall, as promptly as practicable, cause the securities or property received by it to be distributed to the Owners, as of the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.06 of the Deposit Agreement, of Receipts entitled thereto in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by them as of such date in any manner that the Depositary may, following consultation with the Company, reasonably deem equitable and practicable for accomplishing such distribution;provided,however, that if the Company shall so direct or if, in the reasonable opinion of the Depositary such distribution cannot be made proportionately among such Owners, or if for any other reason (including but not limited to any requirement that the Company or the Depositary withhold an amount on account of taxes or other governmental charges or that such securities must be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 in order to be distributed to Owners) the Depositary, in its reasonable opinion, deems such distribution not to be feasible, the Depositary may, following consultation with the Company to the extent practicable, adopt such method as it may deem lawful, equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, including the public or private sale of the securities or other property thus received, or any part thereof, and the net proceeds of any such sale (net of the fees and expenses of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.09 of the Deposit Agreement) shall be as promptly as practicable distributed by the Depositary to the Owners entitled thereto as in the case of a distribution received in cash;provided,however, that any unsold balance of such securities or property shall be distributed by the Depositary to the Owners entitled thereto, if such distribution is feasible without withholding for or on account of any taxes or other governmental charges and without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, in accordance with such lawful, equitable and practicable method as the Depositary may have adopted;providedfurther,however, that no distribution to Owners shall be unreasonably delayed by any action of the Depositary or any of its agents. To the extent such securities or other property, or the net proceeds thereof, is not effectively distributed to Owners as provided herein, the same shall constitute Deposited Securities and each American Depositary Share shall thereafter also represent its proportionate interest in such securities or other property or net proceeds. . The Depositary may withhold any distribution of securities under Section 4.02 of the Deposit Agreement if it has not received reasonably satisfactory assurances from the Company that the distribution does not require registration under the Securities Act of 1933. The Depositary may sell, by public or private sale, an amount of securities or other property it would otherwise distribute under Section 4.02 of the Deposit Agreement that is sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in respect of that distribution.

If any distribution upon any Deposited Securities consists of a dividend in, or distribution without payment of any subscription price of, Shares, including pursuant to any program under which holders of Deposited Securities may elect to receive cash or Shares, the Depositary may, and shall if the Company so requests, execute and deliver and, if applicable, cause the Registrar to countersign, as promptly as practicable, additional Receipts evidencing American Depositary Shares representing the amount of Shares received as such dividend or distribution and distribute to the Owners, as of the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.06 of the Deposit Agreement, of Receipts entitled thereto in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by them as of such date, Receipts evidencing additional American Depositary Shares, subject to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement with respect to the deposit of Shares and the issuance of Receipts, including the withholding of any tax or other governmental charge as provided in Section 4.11 of the Deposit Agreement and the payment of fees of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.09 of the Deposit Agreement (and the Depositary may sell, by public or private sale, an amount of the Shares received sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in respect of that distribution). The Depositary may withhold any such distribution if it has not received adequate assurances from the Company that such distribution does not require registration under the Securities Act of 1933;provided,however, that no distribution to Owners pursuant to Section 4.03 of the Deposit Agreement shall be unreasonably delayed by any action of the Depositary or the Custodian. In lieu of delivering Receipts for fractional American Depositary Shares, the Depositary shall sell the amount of Shares representing the aggregate of such fractions and distribute the net proceeds, all in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.01 of the Deposit Agreement or take such other action, with the approval of the Company, as may be appropriate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall so direct or if in the reasonable opinion of the Depositary such distribution cannot be made or if for any reason (including, but not limited to, any requirement that the Company, the Custodian or the Depositary withhold an amount on account for taxes or other governmental charges or that such Shares must be registered under the Securities Act of 1933 in order to be distributed to Owner) the Depositary, in its reasonable opinion, determines that a distribution in Shares is not feasible or may not be legally made to some or all Owners, the Depositary may, following consultation with the Company, adopt such method as it may deem lawful, equitable and practicable for the purpose of effecting such distribution, all in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 of the Deposit Agreement, or take such other action, with the approval of the Company, as may be appropriate. If additional Receipts are not so distributed, each American Depositary Share shall thenceforth also represent the additional Shares distributed with respect to the Deposited Securities represented thereby.

In the event that the Depositary determines that any dividend or other distribution in property other than cash (including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) is subject to any tax or other governmental charge which the Depositary is obligated to withhold, the Depositary may (after consultation with the Company) by public or private sale dispose of all or a portion of such property (including Shares and rights to subscribe therefor) in such amounts and in such manner as the Depositary deems necessary and practicable to withhold any such taxes or charges and the Depositary shall distribute the net proceeds of any such sale after deduction of such taxes or charges to the Owners entitled thereto in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by them respectively, and the Depositary shall distribute any unsold balance of such property, all in accordance with applicable provisions of the Deposit Agreement.

13.RIGHTS.

In the event that the Company shall offer or cause to be offered to the holders of any Deposited Securities any rights to subscribe for additional Shares or any rights of any other nature, the Depositary shall (after consultation with the Company as to the procedure to be followed) make, as promptly as practicable, such rights available to any Owners, including the distribution of warrants or other instruments therefor in such form as it deems appropriate, or dispose of such rights on behalf of any Owners and distribute, as promptly as practicable, the net proceeds in Dollars to such Owners,but only pursuant to a separate agreement to be entered into between the Company and the Depositary setting forth the conditions and procedures that shall apply to that particular offering. If, by the terms of such rights offering or by reason of applicable law, the Depositary may neither make such rights available to any Owners, nor dispose of such rights and distribute the net proceeds to such Owners, then the Depositary shall allow the rights to lapse. If, at the time of the offering of any rights the Depositary determines, following consultation with the Company, that it is lawful and feasible to make such rights available to certain Owners but not to other Owners, (i) the Depositary shall, pursuant to an agreement as described above, distribute, as promptly as practicable, to every Owner with respect to whom it determines the distribution to be lawful and feasible, in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by such Owner, warrants or other instruments therefor in such form as it deems appropriate and (ii) in respect of Owners to whom the Depositary determines the distribution not to be lawful or feasible, the Depositary shall use reasonable efforts to sell the rights, warrants or other instruments in proportion to the number of American Depositary Shares held by such Owners and distribute the net proceeds of such sales (net of the fees of the Depositary as provided in Section 5.09 and all taxes and governmental charges payable in connection with such rights and subject to the terms and conditions of this Deposit Agreement) to such Owners upon an averaged or other fair and practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among such Owners resulting from exchange restrictions, the date of delivery of any Receipt or otherwise.

In circumstances in which rights would not otherwise be distributed, if an Owner requests the distribution of warrants or other instruments in order to exercise the rights allocable in respect of American Depositary Shares of such Owner under the Deposit Agreement, the Depositary will make such rights available to such Owner upon written notice from the Company to the Depositary that (a) the Company has elected in its sole discretion to permit such rights to be exercised and (b) the Owner has executed such documents as the Company has determined in its sole discretion are reasonably required under applicable law. Upon instruction pursuant to such warrants or other instruments to the Depositary from such Owner to exercise such rights, upon payment by such Owner to the Depositary for the account of such Owner of an amount equal to the purchase price of the Shares or other securities to be received upon the exercise of the rights, and upon payment of the fees of the Depositary as set forth in such warrants or other instruments, the Depositary shall, on behalf of such Owner, exercise the rights and purchase such Shares or other securities, and the Company shall cause the Shares or other securities so purchased to be delivered to the Depositary on behalf of such Owner. As agent for such Owner, the Depositary will cause the Shares so purchased to be deposited pursuant to Section 2.02 of the Deposit Agreement, and shall, pursuant to Section 2.03 of the Deposit Agreement, execute and deliver Receipts to such Owner. In the case of a distribution pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 4.04 of the Deposit Agreement, such Receipts shall be legended, if required, in accordance with applicable U.S. laws, and shall be subject to the appropriate restrictions on sale, deposit, cancellation, and transfer under such laws.

If registration under the Securities Act of 1933 of the rights or the securities to which any rights relate is required in order for the Company or the Depositary to offer such rights to the Owners and sell the securities represented by such rights, except as otherwise provided in the preceding paragraph, the Company and the Depositary will not offer rights to Owners unless a registration statement is in effect with respect both to such rights and any securities to be received upon exercise of such rights under the Securities Act of 1933 or unless the offering and sale of such securities to such Owners are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933. Nothing in the Deposit Agreement shall create any obligation on the part of the Company to file a registration statement in respect of any rights or securities for any purpose or to endeavor to have such a registration statement declared effective.

If an Owner requests the distribution of warrants or other instruments, notwithstanding that there has been no such registration under the Securities Act of 1933, the Depositary shall not effect such distribution unless it has received an opinion from recognized counsel in the United States for the Company upon which the Depositary may rely that such distribution to such Owner is exempt from such registration.

The Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to determine that it may be lawful or feasible to make such rights available to Owners in general or any Owner in particular.

14.CONVERSION OF FOREIGN CURRENCY.

Whenever the Depositary or the Custodian shall receive Foreign Currency, by way of dividends or other distributions or as the net proceeds from the sale of securities, property or rights, and if at the time of the receipt thereof the Foreign Currency so received can in the reasonable judgment of the Depositary be converted on a reasonable basis into Dollars and transferred to the United States, the Depositary shall, subject to any restrictions imposed by applicable law, regulations or permits, convert or cause to be converted, by sale or in any other manner that it may determine, such Foreign Currency into Dollars, and such Dollars shall be distributed, as promptly as practicable, net of any customary expenses incurred by the Depositary in connection with the conversion of currency pursuant to Section 4.05 of the Deposit Agreement, to the Owners entitled thereto as of the record date fixed pursuant to Section 4.06 of the Deposit Agreement in accordance with any applicable provisions of Sections 4.01, 4.02, 4.03 and 4.04 of the Deposit Agreement. Such distribution may be made upon an averaged or other fair and practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among Owners resulting from exchange restrictions or otherwise. Upon the request of the Company, the Depositary shall inform the Company of the exchange rate at which Foreign Currency conversion has been carried out.

If such conversion or distribution can be effected only with the approval or license of any government or agency thereof, the Depositary shall file as promptly as practicable such application for approval or license, if any, as it may deem desirable;provided,however, that if such application involves or refers to or is made on behalf of the Company, such application shall not be filed unless approved by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

If at any time the Depositary shall determine, following consultation with the Company, that in its reasonable judgment any Foreign Currency received by the Depositary or the Custodian is not, pursuant to applicable law or otherwise, convertible on a reasonable basis into Dollars transferable to the United States, or if any approval or license of any government or agency thereof which is required for such conversion is denied or in the opinion of the Depositary, following consultation with the Company, is not obtainable, or if any such approval or license is not obtained within a reasonable period as determined by the Depositary, the Depositary may distribute such Foreign Currency (or an appropriate document evidencing the right to receive such Foreign Currency) received by the Depositary or the Custodian to such Owner or may, and will if requested in writing by an Owner, hold any amounts of Foreign Currency not distributed uninvested for the respective accounts of, the Owners entitled to receive the same, without liability for interest thereon.

If any such conversion of Foreign Currency, in whole or in part, cannot be effected for distribution to some Owners entitled thereto, the Depositary may in its discretion, following consultation with the Company, make such conversion and distribution in Dollars to the extent permissible to the Owners entitled thereto for whom such conversion and distribution is practicable and may distribute the balance of the Foreign Currency (or an appropriate document evidencing the right to receive such Foreign Currency) received by the Depositary or the Custodian to, or hold such balance uninvested and without liability for the respective accounts of, the Owners entitled thereto for whom such conversion and distribution is not practicable.

15.FIXING OF RECORD DATE.

Whenever any cash dividend or other cash distribution shall become payable or any distribution other than cash shall be made, or whenever rights shall be issued with respect to the Deposited Securities, or whenever for any reason there occurs a change in the number or type of Deposited Securities that are represented by each American Depositary Share, or whenever the Depositary shall receive notice of any meeting of, or solicitation of consents or proxies from, holders of Shares or other Deposited Securities or whenever the Company or the Depositary finds it necessary or convenient in respect of any matter, the Depositary shall fix a record date (which, to the extent practicable, shall be the same as any corresponding record date set by the Company with respect to Shares) after consultation with the Company to the extent practicable if such date is to be different from a corresponding record date set by the Company for the determination of the Owners who shall be entitled to receive such dividend, distribution or rights, or the net proceeds of the sale thereof, or to give instructions for the exercise of voting rights at any such meeting or in respect of any such solicitation or to receive information as to any such meeting or solicitation, or for fixing the date on or after which each American Depositary Share will represent the changed number or type of Deposited Securities, subject to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement. If the American Depositary Shares shall be listed on any stock exchange, then any such record date shall be fixed in accordance with any applicable rules of such stock exchange. The Depositary as promptly as practicable shall advise the Company and, if the American Depositary Shares shall be listed on any stock exchange, such stock exchange of any record date so fixed by the Depositary.

16.VOTING OF DEPOSITED SECURITIES.

Upon receipt of notice of any meeting or solicitation of consents or proxies of Owners of Shares or other Deposited Securities, if requested in writing by the Company, the Depositary shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, mail to the Owners a notice, the form of which notice shall be subject to the reasonable discretion of the Depositary, which shall contain (a) such information as is contained in such notice of meeting received by the Depositary from the Company, and (b) a statement that the Owners as of the close of business on a specified record date will be entitled, subject to any applicable provision of Brazilian law, the By-laws of the Company and the provisions of the Deposited Securities, to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of the voting rights, if any, pertaining to the amount of Shares or other Deposited Securities represented by their respective American Depositary Shares and (c) a statement as to the manner in which such instructions may be given, including, when applicable, an express indication that such instructions may be given or deemed given in accordance with the last sentence of this paragraph if no instruction is received. Upon the written request of an Owner on such record date, received on or before the date established by the Depositary for such purpose (the "Instruction Date"), the Depositary shall endeavor, insofar as is practicable and permitted under applicable laws and the provisions of the By-laws of the Company and the provisions of the Deposited Securities, to vote or cause to be voted the amount of Shares or other Deposited Securities represented by the American Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipt in accordance with the instructions set forth in such request. The Depositary shall not, and the Depositary shall ensure that the Custodian or any of its nominees shall not, vote or attempt to exercise the right to vote that attaches to the Shares or other Deposited Securities, other than in accordance with such instructions or deemed instructions, if any. If (i) the Company instructed the Depositary to act under this paragraph and gave the Depositary notice of any such meeting and details concerning the matters to be voted upon not less than 30 days prior to the meeting date and (ii) no instructions are received by the Depositary from an Owner with respect to a matter and an amount of American Depositary Shares of that Owner on or before the date established by the Depositary for such purpose, the Depositary shall deem that Owner to have instructed the Depositary to give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by the Company with respect to that matter and the amount of Deposited Securities represented by that amount of American Depositary Shares and the Depositary shall give a discretionary proxy to a person designated by the Company to vote that amount of Deposited Securities as to that matter,except that no such instruction shall be deemed given and no such discretionary proxy shall be given with respect to any matter as to which the Company informs the Depositary (and the Company agrees to provide such information as promptly as practicable in writing, if applicable) that (x) the Company does not wish such proxy given, (y) substantial opposition exists or (z) such matter materially and adversely affects the rights of holders of Shares.

In order to give Owners a reasonable opportunity to instruct the Depositary as to the exercise of voting rights relating to Deposited Securities, if the Company will request the Depositary to act under the preceding paragraph, the Company shall Company shall use reasonable efforts to give the Depositary notice of any such meeting and details concerning the matters to be voted upon not less than 30 days prior to the meeting date.

There can be no assurance that Owners generally or any Owner in particular will receive the notice described in the preceding paragraph sufficiently prior to the Instruction Date to ensure that the Depositary will vote the Shares or Deposited Securities in accordance with the provisions set forth in the preceding paragraph.

Subject to the rules of any securities exchange on which American Depositary Shares or the Deposited Securities represented thereby are listed or quoted, the Depositary shall, if requested by the Company deliver, at least two (2) Business Days prior to the date of such meeting, to the Company, to the attention of the Chief Financial Officer and General Counsel, copies of all instructions received from Owners in accordance with which the Depositary will vote, or cause to be voted, the Deposited Securities represented by the American Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipts at such meeting. Delivery of instructions will be made at the expense of the Company (unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Company and the Depositary) provided that payment of any such expense by the Company shall not be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Depositary under Section 4.07 of the Deposit Agreement.

17.CHANGES AFFECTING DEPOSITED SECURITIES.

In circumstances where the provisions of Section 4.03 of the Deposit Agreement do not apply, upon any change in nominal value, change in par value, split-up, consolidation or other reclassification of Deposited Securities, or upon any recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation or sale of assets affecting the Company or to which it is a party, any securities which shall be received by the Depositary or the Custodian in exchange for, conversion of, replacement or otherwise in respect of Deposited Securities shall, subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement and applicable law, including any applicable provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, be treated as new Deposited Securities under the Deposit Agreement, and each American Depositary Share shall, subject to the terms of the Deposit Agreement and applicable law, including any applicable provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, thenceforth represent an appropriately adjusted proportional interest in the Deposited Securities so received in exchange or conversion or replacement or otherwise, unless additional or new Receipts are delivered pursuant to the following sentence. In any such case the Depositary may, and shall if the Company shall so request, execute and deliver and, if applicable, cause the Registrar to countersign additional Receipts as in the case of a stock dividend on the Shares, or call for the surrender of outstanding Receipts to be exchanged for new Receipts specifically describing such new Deposited Securities. Upon the occurrence of any change or other event covered by Section 4.08 of the Deposit Agreement with respect to the Deposited Securities, the Depositary shall give notice thereof in writing to all Owners if the event affects holdings of American Depositary Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any securities so received may not be lawfully distributed to some or all Owners, the Depositary may, following consultation with the Company to the extent practicable, sell such securities at public or private sale, at such place or places and upon such terms as it may deem proper, and may allocate the net proceeds of such sale for the account of the Owners otherwise entitled to such securities upon an averaged or other practicable basis without regard to any distinctions among such Owners and distribute the net proceeds so allocated to the extent practicable as in the case of a distribution received in cash pursuant to Section 4.01 of the Deposit Agreement.

18.LIABILITY OF THE COMPANY AND THE DEPOSITARY

Neither the Depositary nor the Company nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents or affiliates shall incur any liability to any Owner or Holder (i) if by reason of any provision of any present or future law or regulation of the United States or any other country, or of any governmental or regulatory authority or stock exchange, or by reason of any provision, present or future, of the articles of association or similar document of the Company, or by reason of any provision of any securities issued or distributed by the Company, or any offering or distribution thereof, or by reason of any act of God or war or terrorism or other circumstances beyond its control, the Depositary or the Company shall be prevented, delayed or forbidden from, or be subject to any civil or criminal penalty on account of, doing or performing any act or thing which by the terms of this Deposit Agreement or the Deposited Securities it is provided shall be done or performed, (ii) by reason of any non-performance or delay, caused as aforesaid, in the performance of any act or thing which by the terms of this Deposit Agreement it is provided shall or may be done or performed, (iii) by reason of any exercise of, or failure to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Deposit Agreement, (iv) for the inability of any Owner or Holder to benefit from any distribution, offering, right or other benefit which is made available to holders of Deposited Securities but is not, under the terms of this Deposit Agreement, made available to Owners or Holders, or (v) for any special, consequential or punitive damages for any breach of the terms of this Deposit Agreement. Where, by the terms of a distribution pursuant to Section 4.01, 4.02 or 4.03, or an offering or distribution pursuant to Section 4.04, or for any other reason, such distribution or offering may not be made available to Owners, and the Depositary may not dispose of such distribution or offering on behalf of such Owners and make the net proceeds available to such Owners, then the Depositary shall not make such distribution or offering, and shall allow any rights, if applicable, to lapse.

The Company assumes no obligation nor shall it be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to any Owner or Holder, except that the Company agrees to perform its obligations specifically set forth in this Deposit Agreement without negligence or bad faith. Each of the Company and its agents and their respective officers, directors, employees and affiliates assumes no obligation nor shall it be subject to any liability under the Deposit Agreement to the Custodian or any agent of the Depositary or the Custodian, except under Section 5.08 of the Deposit Agreement. The Depositary assumes no obligation nor shall it be subject to any liability under this Deposit Agreement to any Owner or Holder (including, without limitation, liability with respect to the validity or worth of the Deposited Securities), except that the Depositary agrees to perform its obligations specifically set forth in this Deposit Agreement without negligence or bad faith. Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any Deposited Securities or in respect of the American Depositary Shares on behalf of any Owner or Holder or any other person. Neither the Depositary nor the Company shall be liable for any action or nonaction by it in reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants, any person presenting Shares for deposit, any Owner or any other person believed by it in good faith to be competent to give such advice or information. Each of the Depositary and its agents and the Company and its agents may rely and shall be protected in acting upon notice, request, direction or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Depositary shall not be liable for any acts or omissions made by a successor depositary whether in connection with a previous act or omission of the Depositary or in connection with any matter arising wholly after the removal or resignation of the Depositary, provided that in connection with the issue out of which such potential liability arises the Depositary performed its obligations without negligence or bad faith while it acted as Depositary. Neither the Company nor the Depositary shall be liable for the acts or omissions of any securities depository, clearing agency or settlement system in connection with or arising out of book-entry settlement of Deposited Securities or otherwise. Except as otherwise provided in this Deposit Agreement, the Depositary will not release any information regarding the Company without prior written approval from the Company;provided,however, that the Depositary may release, without prior approval from the Company, information made publicly available by the Company if the form and substance of such information has not been altered or modified in any way other than by the Company. The Depositary shall not be responsible for any failure to carry out any instructions to vote any of the Deposited Securities, or for the manner in which any such vote is cast or the effect of any such vote, provided that any such action or nonaction is in good faith. No disclaimer of liability under the Securities Act of 1933 is intended by any provision of the Deposit Agreement.

The Depositary in its discretion, after consultation with the Company to the extent practicable, may appoint a substitute custodian.

20.AMENDMENT.

The form of the Receipts and any provisions of the Deposit Agreement may at any time and from time to time be amended by agreement in writing between the Company and the Depositary in any respect which they may deem necessary or desirable. Any amendment which shall impose or increase any fees or charges (other than taxes and other governmental charges, registration fees, cable, telex or facsimile transmission costs, delivery costs or other such expenses), or which shall otherwise prejudice any substantial existing right of Owners shall, however, not become effective as to outstanding Receipts until the expiration of 30 days after written notice of such amendment shall have been mailed to the Owners of outstanding Receipts. Every Owner at the time any amendment so becomes effective shall be deemed, by continuing to hold such Receipt, to consent and agree to such amendment and to be bound by the Deposit Agreement as amended thereby. In no event shall any amendment impair the right of the Owner of any Receipt to surrender such Receipt and receive therefor the Deposited Securities represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of applicable law.

21.TERMINATION OF DEPOSIT AGREEMENT.

The Depositary shall at any time at the direction of the Company terminate the Deposit Agreement by mailing notices of such termination to the Owners of all Receipts then outstanding at least 30 days prior to the date fixed in such notice for such termination. The Depositary may likewise terminate the Deposit Agreement (upon 30 days' prior written notice of such termination to the Company and the Owners of all Receipts then outstanding) if at any time 60 days after the Depositary shall have delivered to the Company a written notice of its resignation sent by registered mail, return receipt requested, a successor depositary shall not have been appointed and accepted its appointment as provided in Section 5.04 of the Deposit Agreement. The Depositary shall mail notice of such termination to the Owners of all Receipts then outstanding at least 30 days prior to the date fixed in such notice for such termination. On and after the date of termination, each Owner shall, upon (i) surrender of each of its Receipts at the Depositary's Corporate Trust Office, (ii) payment of the fees of the Depositary for the surrender of Receipts provided herein and (iii) payment of any applicable taxes and governmental charges, be entitled to delivery, to him or upon his order, of the whole number of Deposited Securities represented by the American Depositary Shares evidenced by such Receipts and to the net proceeds of the sale of any fractional Deposited Securities represented thereby. If any Receipts shall remain outstanding after the date of termination, the Depositary thereafter shall discontinue the registration of transfers, combinations and split-ups of Receipts, shall suspend the distribution of dividends to the Owners thereof shall not accept deposits of Shares (and shall instruct the Custodian to act accordingly), and shall not give any further notices or perform any further acts under the Deposit Agreement, except that the Depositary shall continue to collect dividends and other distributions pertaining to Deposited Securities, shall sell property and rights and convert Deposited Securities into cash as provided in the Deposit Agreement, and shall continue to deliver Deposited Securities, together with any dividends or other distributions received with respect thereto and the net proceeds of the sale of any rights or other property, in exchange for Receipts surrendered to the Depositary (after deducting, in each case, the fee of the Depositary for the surrender of a Receipt, any expenses for the account of the Owner of such Receipt in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, and any applicable taxes or governmental charges).

After making such sale, the Depositary shall be discharged from all obligations under the Deposit Agreement, except to account for such net proceeds and other cash (after deducting, in each case, the fee of the Depositary for the surrender of a Receipt, any expenses for the account of the Owner of such Receipt in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Deposit Agreement, and any applicable taxes or governmental charges) and except for its obligations under Section 5.08 of the Deposit Agreement. Upon the termination of the Deposit Agreement, the Company shall be discharged from all obligations under the Deposit Agreement except for its obligations to the Depositary under Sections 5.08 and 5.09 of the Deposit Agreement.

22.COMPLIANCE WITH U.S. SECURITIES LAWS.

Notwithstanding any terms of this Receipt or the Deposit Agreement to the contrary, each of the Company and the Depositary have agreed that it will not exercise any rights it has under the Deposit Agreement or the Receipt to permit the withdrawal or delivery of Deposited Securities in a manner which would violate the United States securities laws, including, but not limited to Section I A(1) of the General Instructions to the Form F-6 Registration Statement, as amended from time to time, under the Securities Act of 1933.

23.INFORMATION REQUESTS.

The Company, and the Depositary at the Company's request, may from time to time request Owners of Receipts to provide information as to the capacity in which such Owners own or owned Receipts and regarding the identity of any other persons then or previously interested in such Receipts and the nature of such interest and various other matters. Each such Owner agrees to provide any such information reasonably requested by the Company or the Depositary pursuant to Section 3.04 of the Deposit Agreement and such agreement shall survive any disposition of such Owner’s Receipts or the American Depositary Shares evidenced thereby. The Depositary agrees to use reasonable efforts to comply with written instructions received from the Company requesting that the Depositary forward any such requests to the Owners and to forward to the Company any responses to such requests received by the Depositary, and to use its reasonable efforts, at the Company’s request and expense, to assist the Company in obtaining such information with respect to the American Depositary Shares; provided that nothing herein shall be interpreted as obligating the Depositary to provide or obtain any such information not provided to the Depositary by such Owners.

Each of the Depositary and the Company hereby confirms to the other that for as long as the Deposit Agreement is in effect, it shall furnish the CVM and the Central Bank, at any time and within the period that may be determined, with any information and documents related to the American Depositary Share program and the American Depositary Shares issued hereunder. In the event that the Depositary or the Custodian shall be advised in writing by reputable independent Brazilian counsel that the Depositary or Custodian reasonably could be subject to criminal, or material, as reasonably determined by the Depositary, civil, liabilities as a result of the Company having failed to provide such information or documents reasonably available only through the Company, the Depositary shall have the right to terminate the Deposit Agreement, upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Owners and the Company, and the Depositary shall not be subject to any liability hereunder on account of such termination or such determination. The effect of any such termination of the Deposit Agreement shall be as provided in Section 6.02 of that Agreement.

24.NO LIABILITY AND RESPONSIBILITY.

None of the Company, the Depositary or the Custodian will have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for any action or failure to act by any Owner relating to the Owner's obligations under any applicable Brazilian law or regulation relating to foreign investment in Brazil in respect of a withdrawal or sale of Deposited Securities, including, without limitation, any failure to comply with a requirement to register such investment pursuant to the terms of any such applicable Brazilian law or regulation prior to such withdrawal or any failure to report foreign exchange transactions to the Brazilian Central Bank, as the case may be. Each Owner will be responsible for the report of any false information relating to foreign exchange transactions to the Custodian or the Brazilian Central Bank in connection with deposits or withdrawals of Deposited Securities.

25.UNCERTIFICATED AMERICAN DEPOSITARY SHARES; DTC DIRECT REGISTRATION SYSTEM.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Deposit Agreement:

(a) American Depositary Shares may be certificated securities evidenced by Receipts or uncertificated securities. The form of Receipt annexed as Exhibit A to the Deposit Agreement summarizes the terms and conditions of, and will be the prospectus required under the Securities Act of 1933 for, both certificated and uncertificated American Depositary Shares. Except for those provisions of the Deposit Agreement that by their nature do not apply to uncertificated American Depositary Shares, all the provisions of the Deposit Agreement shall apply,mutatis mutandis, to both certificated and uncertificated American Depositary Shares.

(b) (i) The term "deliver", or its noun form, when used with respect to Receipts, shall mean (A) book-entry transfer of American Depositary Shares to an account at The Depository Trust Company, or its successor ("DTC"), designated by the person entitled to such delivery, evidencing American Depositary Shares registered in the name requested by that person, (B) registration of American Depositary Shares not evidenced by a Receipt on the books of the Depositary in the name requested by the person entitled to such delivery and mailing to that person of a statement confirming that registration or (C) if requested by the person entitled to such delivery, delivery at the Corporate Trust Office of the Depositary to the person entitled to such delivery of one or more Receipts.

(ii) The term "surrender", when used with respect to Receipts, shall mean (A) one or more book-entry transfers of American Depositary Shares to the DTC account of the Depositary, (B) delivery to the Depositary at its Corporate Trust Office of an instruction to surrender American Depositary Shares not evidenced by a Receipt or (C) surrender to the Depositary at its Corporate Trust Office of one or more Receipts evidencing American Depositary Shares.

(c) American Depositary Shares not evidenced by Receipts shall be transferable as uncertificated registered securities under the laws of New York.

(d) The Depositary shall have a duty to register a transfer, in the case of uncertificated American Depositary Shares, upon receipt from the Owner of a proper instruction (including, for the avoidance of doubt, instructions through DRS and Profile as provided in subsection (f) below). The Depositary, upon surrender of a Receipt for the purpose of exchanging it for uncertificated American Depositary Shares, shall cancel that Receipt and send the Owner a statement confirming that the Owner is the owner of the same number of uncertificated American Depositary Shares that the surrendered Receipt evidenced. The Depositary, upon receipt of a proper instruction (including, for the avoidance of doubt, instructions through DRS and Profile as provided in subsection (f) below) from the Owner of uncertificated American Depositary Shares for the purpose of exchanging them for certificated American Depositary Shares, shall execute and deliver to the Owner a Receipt evidencing the same number of certificated American Depositary Shares.

(e) Upon satisfaction of the conditions for replacement of a Receipt that is mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen, the Depositary shall deliver to the Owner the American Depositary Shares evidenced by that Receipt in uncertificated form unless otherwise requested by the Owner.

(f) (i) The parties acknowledge that the Direct Registration System ("DRS") and Profile Modification System ("Profile") shall apply to uncertificated American Depositary Shares upon acceptance thereof to DRS by DTC. DRS is the system administered by DTC pursuant to which the Depositary may register the ownership of uncertificated American Depositary Shares, which ownership shall be evidenced by periodic statements issued by the Depositary to the Owners entitled thereto. Profile is a required feature of DRS which allows a DTC participant, claiming to act on behalf of an Owner of American Depositary Shares, to direct the Depositary to register a transfer of those American Depositary Shares to DTC or its nominee and to deliver those American Depositary Shares to the DTC account of that DTC participant without receipt by the Depositary of prior authorization from the Owner to register such transfer.

(ii) In connection with and in accordance with the arrangements and procedures relating to DRS/Profile, the parties understand that the Depositary will not verify, determine or otherwise ascertain that the DTC participant which is claiming to be acting on behalf of an Owner in requesting a registration of transfer and delivery as described in subsection (i) above has the actual authority to act on behalf of the Owner (notwithstanding any requirements under the Uniform Commercial Code). For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Sections 5.3 and 5.8 of the Deposit Agreement shall apply to the matters arising from the use of the DRS. The parties agree that the Depositary's reliance on and compliance with instructions received by the Depositary through the DRS/Profile System and in accordance with the Deposit Agreement shall not constitute negligence or bad faith on the part of the Depositary.
