II. SANTANDER BRASIL’s CLARIFICATION:
In response to the Official Letter, Santander Brasil clarifies that:
(i) as per the Press Release disclosed by Santander Brasil on January 13, 2015, purchase of 50% of the capital of Super Pagamentos e Administração de Meios Eletrônicos Ltda. (“Super”) has been concluded by the Santander Brasil group;
(ii) Super is a digital platform that offers electronic payment account, prepaid card and access to simplified financial services, and the transaction is consistent with the strategy already disclosed for growth in the sector of means of payment;
(iii) Santander Brasil considers that the information in connection with conclusion of said transaction does not constitute a material fact for purposes of CVM Ruling No. 358/02, for the fact that it is consistent with the strategy already previously disclosed, the amount of the transaction is not substantial1 and the financial impact is not relevant; and
(iv) the right to withdraw prescribed in article 256 of Law 6404/76 does not apply to the transaction at issue, given that the purchase of ownership interest in Super was performed by Aymoré Crédito, Financiamento e Investimento S.A., a closely-held company controlled by Santander Brasil.
São Paulo, January 14, 2015.
