CALCULATION OF FILING FEE
Transaction Valuation* US$874,908,963.76 |
Amount of Filing Fee** US$93,615.26 |
* |
Estimated for purposes of calculating the filing fee pursuant to Rule 0−11(d) only. The Transaction Valuation was calculated assuming the purchase of all outstanding Common Shares, no par value, and all Preferred Shares, no par value (including Preferred Shares represented by American Depositary Shares), other than shares owned directly or indirectly by the Filing Persons, at a purchase price of R$6.95 in cash per 1,000 Common Shares or Preferred Shares. As of June 30, 2006 there were 512,480,331,944 Common Shares and 475,257,755,286 Preferred Shares outstanding (including Preferred Shares represented by American Depositary Shares), of which 498,785,936,670 Common Shares and 216,232,326,229 Preferred Shares are owned directly or indirectly by the Filing Persons. As a result, this calculation assumes the purchase of 13,694,395,274 outstanding Common Shares and 259,025,429,057 outstanding Preferred Shares. The Transaction Value was calculated in Brazilian reais (R$) and converted into U.S. dollars at the noon buying rate as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on September 29, 2006 of US$1 = R$2.1664. |
** |
The filing fee, calculated in accordance with Rule 0−11 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Fee Rate Advisory No. 5 for fiscal year 2006, is US$107.00 per US$1 million (prorated for amounts less than US$1 million) of the aggregate Transaction Valuation. Accordingly, the filing fee is calculated by multiplying the aggregate Transaction Valuation by 0.000107. |
