The purchase price for the common shares and the preferred shares in the Voluntary Tender Offer will be R$ 6.95 per lot of 1,000 common or preferred shares, adjusted by the monthly Taxa Referencial - TR, pro rata temporis, from May 8, 2006 through the date of the settlement of the Voluntary Tender Offer.
