As a result of the acquisition of its interest in Telecom Italia, Telefónica S.A. does not have any direct involvement in the operations of TIM. Additionally, any transactions between the Company and TIM are transactions in the regular course of business, which are regulated by the ANATEL.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

a) Quarterly financial statements

The quarterly financial statements (“ITR’s”) are presented in thousands of Brazilian reais (except as otherwise mentioned) and have been prepared based on the accounting practices adopted in Brazil, as well as on the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM), with due regard to the accounting standards set forth in the corporation law (Law no. 6404/76), which include the new provisions introduced, amended and revoked by Laws no. 11.638, dated December 28, 2007 and no. 11.941, dated May 27, 2009 (former Provisional Measure no. 449, dated December 03, 2008), with further regard, also, to the rules applicable to telecommunication service concessionaires.

The requirements of the mentioned Law apply to fiscal years started as from January 01, 2008. These requirements are not to be considered as changes of circumstances or of estimates and, therefore, the adoption of new practices introduced by Law no. 11.638/07, as a general rule, must be shown retrospectively, that is, by application of these new accounting practices as if they had been in use during all the periods presented, with due regard to the rule governing “Accounting Practices, Changes to Accounting Estimates and Correction of Mistakes”, as approved by the CVM, by Resolution no. 506. Accordingly, the Quarterly Information for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 is presented again with the purpose of making them comparable with the Quarterly Information related to the six-month period ended June 30, 2009 (note 2b).

The consolidated income statement of the Company for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 contemplates the consolidated income of Telemig Participações for the period from April to June 2008.

All balances of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses arising out of transactions between the consolidated companies have been eliminated in the consolidated statements.

The conciliation between the controlling company’s net income and the consolidated income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008 is as follows:

Net income of Controlling Company

34,479

Forfeited interest on shareholders’ equity and dividends of the subsidiaries

(788)

Net income consolidated

33,691

Except for the accounting practice of goodwill amortization, which has not been adopted any longer since January 01, 2009, as provided for in CPC 04 – Intangible Assets, these ITRs were prepared in conformity with principles, practices and criteria which are consistent with those adopted for preparing the financial statements of the last fiscal year and must be analyzed together with the referred statements.

b) Effect of the adjustments of Laws nº 11.638/07 and nº 11.941/09

The table below shows the effects of the application of Laws no. 11.638/07 and no. 11.941/09 in the consolidated income statement for the six-month period ended June 30, 2008.

The amount recorded in the current assets refers to reversal of temporary differences, use of tax losses and tax amortization of the goodwill expected for the next twelve months.

The deferred taxes were recorded assuming their future realization, as follows:

a) Tax loss and negative tax base : represents the amount recorded by the controlled companies, which will be offset up to the limit of 30% of the tax base computed in the coming fiscal years and subject to no statute of limitations. The Company did not record the potential deferred income and social contribution tax credit that would arise from the use of the tax bases in the amount of R$700,447 (R$713,775 at March 31, 2009), given the uncertainty, at this time, as to the Company’s ability to generate future taxable results to ensure realization of these deferred taxes.

b) Tax credit incorporated : represented by the net balance of goodwill and provision for maintenance of the shareholders’ equity integrity (note 6.2). Realization occurs in a period from 5 to 10 years. Studies performed by independent consultants hired during the corporate reorganization process support the recovery of such amounts within the above referred time. 

c) Temporary differences : represents the amount recorded by the controlled companies and their realization will occur upon payment of the provisions, effective loss on bad debts or realization of inventories, as well as reversal of other provisions. The Company did not record the potential deferred income and social contribution tax credit that would arise from the use of the provisions in the amount of R$156,232 (R$156,248 at March 31, 2009), given the uncertainty, at this time, as to the Company’s ability to generate future taxable results to ensure realization of these deferred taxes.

The Company prepared technical feasibility studies, approved by its Board of Directors, which indicated the full recovery of deferred tax amounts recognized at December 31, 2008, as defined in CVM Instruction No. 371. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, no relevant fact occurred that indicated limitations to full recovery of the deferred tax amounts recognized by the controlled companies.

6.2  Tax credit incorporated – Corporate Restructuring

As a result of the corporate reorganization process, the Company incorporated the premium paid on the privatization and acquisition of subsidiaries.

Prior to the transfers, provisions were booked for maintenance of the stockholders’ equity of the merged companies and, consequently, the net assets that were merged represent, essentially, the tax benefit arising out of the possibility of deduction of the incorporated premium.

Included in the accounting records held for corporate and tax purposes by the Company and its controlled companies are specific accounts related to incorporated goodwill and provision and corresponding amortization, reversal and tax credit, the balances of which are as follows:

Current Taxes:

At June 30, 2009, the amount of R$246,409 (R$230,057 at March 31, 2009) out of the non-current liability, refers to ICMS - More Jobs for Paraná Program, resulting from an agreement with the Paraná State Government involving the deferral of ICMS tax payment. This amount is adjusted to the variation of the Annual Indexation Factor (FCA).

Legal liabilities -  CVM Resolution 489/05

This includes the taxes that fall within the scope of CVM Resolution No. 489/05, dated October 3, 2005, which approved IBRACON NPC No 22 standard.

For purposes of the financial statements, the amounts of judicial deposits for said taxes are offset against taxes, fees and mandatory contributions payable, as applicable.

a) PIS and COFINS

Vivo was issued a delinquency notice by the tax authority (proceedings no. 19515.000.700/2003-97) for having offset the COFINS, in January and February 2000, against credits arising out of the 1/3 surplus of the COFINS itself paid in 1999, after deduction of the amount from the CSLL. The case is awaiting decision of the Special Appeal filed within the administrative sphere. On a conservative conduct, the Management recorded the amount of R$24,671, at June 30 and at March 31, 2009, having deposited the same amount in court.

Law nº 9.718/98

At November 27, 1998, the calculation of PIS and COFINS was changed by Law no. 9718, which: i) increased the COFINS rate from 2% to 3%; ii) authorized the deduction of up to 1/3 of the COFINS from the amount of the Social Contribution on Net Income – CSLL; and also iii) indirectly increased the COFINS and PIS owed by Vivo, determining the inclusion of revenues in excess of the total sales in their tax calculation basis.

By reason of the changes introduced by laws no. 10.647/02 and 10.833/03, Vivo started including the revenues in excess of the total sales in the tax calculation basis of PIS and COFINS.

At June 30, 2009, Vivo has provisions booked for the amounts of the revenues in excess of the total sales, under discussion in court, in the amount of R$10,303 (R$10,557 at March 31, 2009), having deposited the amount of R$2,496 in court (R$2,496 at March 31, 2009).

Other

Additionally, the subsidiaries booked amounts of R$13,605 at June 30, 2009 (R$13,106 at March 31, 2009) with respect to other discussions of PIS and COFINS.
 
b) CIDE

This refers to an administrative and judicial matter, aiming at discharging the assessment of the CIDE on remittances of funds abroad, in connection with agreements for transfer of technology, license of trademarks and software, etc. On a conservative conduct, Vivo recorded the amount of R$80,558, (R$81,134 at March 31, 2009), having deposited in court the amount of R$58,612 (R$57,634 at March 31, 2009).

c) Telecommunications Inspection Fee - FISTEL

Telemig Celular filed a Writ of Mandamus challenging its liability for the payment of the inspection fees on mobile stations not owned by it, and started booking a provision and effecting a deposit in court for the amounts referring to the TFF – Operation Inspection Fee and to the TFI – Installation Inspection Fee. The case is awaiting decision by the TRF Court of the 1st Region.

Its legal counsels consider the chances of losses in these lawsuits to be possible. However, because this is a legal obligation under the terms of CVM Resolution No. 489/2005, the controlled company has booked a provision for this contingency. The provision recorded at June 30, 2009 was in the amount of R$395,932 (R$386,274 at March 31, 2009), with corresponding deposits in court in the same amount.

d) IRRF on payments of Interest on Own Capital – Telemig Celular Participações

Telemig Participações filed Writs of Mandamus requesting the court to declare its right not to be assessed IRRF (Withholding Income Tax) at source on its receipts of interest on own capital of its subsidiary. Based on the opinion of its legal counsels, the referred lawsuits are classified as possible loss; however, once this refers to a legal obligation under the terms of CVM Resolution no. 489/2005, at June 30, 2009 a provision was booked and deposits were made in court, totaling R$20,745 (R$20,314 at March 31, 2009).
 
e) Other taxes, fees and contributions

At June 30, 2009, the subsidiaries recorded the amount of R$9,583 (R$9,041 at March 31, 2009), referring to values related to the discussions of: (i) ISS tax on personal property lease services, ancillary activities and supplementary services (R$5,411); (ii) IRPJ (Corporate Income Tax) on derivative transactions (R$2,107); (iii) INSS (Social Security) (R$808), and (iv) ICMS tax (R$1,257).

c) Loan covenants

Vivo has loans and financing borrowed from Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social (BNDES), the balance of which at June 30, 2009 was R$1,421,566 (R$1,426,548 at March 31, 2009).  In accordance with the contracts, there are several economic and financial indexes that must be calculated on a six-month period and yearly basis. At the same date, all economic and financial indexes established in the two contracts with the BNDES, regarding the Company’s and the controlled company’s (Vivo) instruments, were met.

The agreement entered into by Telemig Celular with the State Department of Economic Development regarding debentures sets forth covenants on petitions for judicial and extrajudicial recovery, liquidation, dissolution, insolvency, voluntary bankruptcy or decree of bankruptcy, payment default, non-compliance with non-fiduciary obligations and compliance with a certain limit substantially based on balance sheet financial indexes and EBITDA (Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), among others.

b) Considerations on risk factors which may affect the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ business

The main market risks to which the Company and its subsidiaries are exposed in the conduct of their activities are:

b.1) Credit Risk

The credit risk arises out of the eventual difficulty to collect the amounts payable for telecommunication services rendered to its customers and for sales of handsets to the distributors network, as well as the risk related to financial statements and accounts receivable for swap transactions.

The credit risk involved in the rendering of telecommunications services is minimized by a strict control of the customer base and active management of customers’ default, by means of clear policies regarding the sale of post-paid handsets. The customer base of the subsidiary companies has, predominantly, a prepaid system, which requires the prior charging and consequently entails no credit risk.
The credit risk in the sale of handsets and “pre-activated” prepaid cards is managed under a conservative credit policy, by means of modern management methods, including the application of “credit scoring” techniques, analysis of financial statements and information, and consultation to commercial data bases.

The Company and its subsidiary (Vivo) are also subject to credit risk originating from their financial investments and amounts receivable from swap transactions. The Company and its subsidiaries act in such a manner as to diversify this exposure among various world-class financial institutions.

b.2) Interest Rate and Inflation Risk

The interest rate risk arises out of the portion of the debt referenced to the CDI rate and of the liability positions in derivatives (exchange hedge and IGPM) contracted at floating rates, and involves the risk of the financial expenses increasing due to an unfavorable change in the interest rates.

The inflation rate risk arises out of the portion of the debt indexed to the IPCA and to the IST and involves the risk of the financial expenses being negatively affected by an unfavorable change of these indexes.

In order to partially cover the fluctuations in the domestic interest rates in relation to debts exposed to the CDI rate, the Company has entered into short-term derivative contracts (“swap” CDI x pre) which convert part of the debt referenced to the variable interest rate (CDI) into a pre-fixed debt.

b.3) Exchange Rate Risk

This risk arises out of the possibility of losses on account of exchange rate fluctuations, which may increase the outstanding balances of foreign currency loans.

The Company and its subsidiary (Vivo) have contracted financial derivative transactions (exchange hedge) so as to protect themselves against exchange rate fluctuations arising out of foreign currency loans. The instruments used were swap contracts.

The table below summarizes the net exposure of financial liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries to the exchange rate factor at June 30, 2009 and at March 31, 2009:

(a) UMBDES is a monetary unit prepared by the BNDES, made-up by a foreign currencies basket, the main currency being the North-American Dollar, for which reason the Company and its subsidiaries consider it upon reviewing the risk coverage related to exchange rate fluctuations.

In addition to the amounts informed above, the Company and its subsidiaries hold non-financial liabilities in foreign currency referring to other obligations. At June 30, 2009 the balance of other liabilities in foreign currency was US$34,010 and €20,044 (US$33,104 and €20,044 at March 31, 2009).

c) Transactions with Derivatives

The CVM, by Resolution no. 550, issued on October 17, 2008, and by Instruction no. 475, issued on December 17, 2008, provided for that publicly-held companies are required to disclose, in a specific explanatory note, qualitative and quantitative information about all their derivative financial instruments, either recognized or not as assets or liabilities in their balance sheet.

The Company and its subsidiary (Vivo) entered into swap contracts in foreign currency at several exchange rates, in notional amounts at June 30, 2009 of US$434,816, and JPY24,462,870 (US$ 435,204, and JPY37,316,640 at March 31, 2009). At June 30, 2009, the Company and its subsidiaries had interest rate swap contracts in local currency (CDI) in the notional amount of R$397,000 (R$225,000 at March 31, 2009) for interest rates in local currency (CDI) and in the notional amount of R$110,000 of swaps indexed to the IGPM (R$110,000, at March 31, 2009).

As required by Law no. 11,638/07, the Company and its subsidiary (Vivo) started applying CPC 14 since the transition date on December 31, 2006. CPC 14 must be applied to all derivative instruments, and requires that such instruments are stated in the balance sheet at their fair value. Changes to the fair value of the derivatives are recognized in the income statement, save in case of compliance with specific criteria such as hedge accounting.

The derivative financial instruments intended for hedge and the respective items subject matter of hedge are monthly adjusted to the fair value, with due regard to the following: for those financial instruments classified as fair value hedge and evaluated as effective, the valuation or devaluation of the fair value of the item which is the hedge instrument and of the item subject matter of hedge must be recorded as a counter-entry to a proper revenue or expense account, in the income of the year.
The Company and its subsidiary (Vivo) started designating certain swap contracts as fair value hedges (see table below) of a portion of the foreign currency debts (US Dollar and Japanese Yen), local interest rate (CDI) and IGPM.

The Company and its subsidiary (Vivo) calculate the effectiveness of these hedges at the beginning and continuously (quarterly) and the hedges contracted on June 30, 2009 showed to be effective in relation to the debts subject matter of such coverage. As long as these derivative contracts are identified as hedge accounting according to CPC 14, the covered debt is also adjusted to the fair value in conformity with the fair value hedge rules.

d) Risk Management Policy

All contracting of derivative financial instruments for the Company and its subsidiary (Vivo) is intended for protection against foreign exchange risk and variations in foreign and local interest rates arising out of financial debts, pursuant to a corporate policy of risk management. Accordingly, eventual variations in the risk factors generate an inverse effect on the subject matter they are intended to protect. Therefore, there are no derivative financial instruments for speculation purposes and 100.0% of the financial exchange liabilities are hedged.

The Company and its subsidiary (Vivo) keep internal controls in relation to their derivative instruments which, in the opinion of the Management are adequate for controlling risks associated to each strategy of market action. The results obtained by the Company and its subsidiaries in relation to their derivative financial instruments show that the Management has properly managed risks.

e) Fair values of the derivative financial instruments

The valuation method used for calculating the market value of the loans, financing, debentures and derivatives was the discounted cash flow, considering expectancy of settlement or receipt of liabilities and assets at the market rates as of June 30, 2009.

The fair values are calculated by projecting the future flows of the transactions, using the BM&F Bovespa curves and bringing them to present value using market DI rates for swaps disclosed by the BM&F Bovespa.

The market values of the exchange coupon swaps x CDI were obtained using the market exchange rates in effect at June 30, 2009 and the rates projected by the market which were obtained from the currency coupon curves. For calculating the coupon of the positions indexed in foreign currency the linear convention of 360 calendar days was adopted and for calculating the coupon of the positions indexed to the CDI the exponential convention of 252 business days was adopted.

The financial instruments disclosed below are recorded with the CETIP, all of them being classified as swaps, not requiring a margin deposit.

(1)  Foreign currency swaps x CDI (R$1,328,615) – swap transactions contracted with maturity date until 2015, for protection against exchange variation risk in financing transactions of this kind (R$1,330,383).

(2)   Swap CDI X Pre (R$412,660) – swap transactions contracted with maturity date in January 2010, for partially protecting against local interest rate fluctuations in relation to debts and derivatives exposed in CDI (debts of R$1,797,533). For the other exposures to CDI (swap liabilities), the Company and its subsidiary (Vivo) have short term financial investments based on the variation of the CDI (R$1,769,972 at June 30, 2009) as partial “natural hedge”. The book values of these financial investments are close to market values, because they are redeemed at short term.

 (3) Swap IGPM x CDI percentage (R$168,076) – swap transactions contracted with maturity date until 2010 with the purpose of protecting the flow identical to the debts at IGPM (R$168,076).

At June 30, 2009, assets in the amount of R$210,922 (R$431,181 at March 31, 2009) and liabilities in the amount of R$188,534 (R$117,621 at March 31, 2009) were recorded by the Company and its subsidiary (Vivo) for recognition of the net derivatives positions as of that date.

Gains and losses in the six-month period ended on June 30, 2009, grouped by contracts executed, were recorded in the income accounts (note 24), as required in CVM Resolution 550/08.

f) Analysis of sensibility to the risk variables of the Company and its subsidiary (Vivo)

CVM Instruction 550/08 provides for that publicly-held companies, in addition to the provisions in item 59 of CPC 14 – Financial Instruments: Recognition, Measurement and Evidencing, are required to disclose a statement of sensibility analysis, for each type of market risk deemed by the management to be material, originated by financial instruments, to which the entity is exposed at the closing date of each period, including all the transactions with derivative financial instruments.

In compliance with the provisions above, each of the transactions with derivatives was evaluated considering a probable realization scenario and two scenarios which may generate adverse results to the Company and its subsidiaries.

In the probable scenario, the premise of realizing, on the maturity dates of each of the transactions, what the market has been signalizing in the future market curves (currency and interest) of the BM&F Bovespa, was considered. Thus, in the probable scenario, there is no impact on the fair value of the financial instruments already presented above. For the adverse scenarios, deterioration of 25% and 50%, respectively, was considered in the risk variables until the maturity date of the financial instruments.
 
As the Company and its subsidiary (Vivo) only have derivative instruments for hedging of their financial debt, changes in the scenarios are accompanied by the respective hedge objects, thus showing that the effects thereof are almost null. For these transactions, the Company has stated the balance of the subject matter (debt) and of the derivative financial instrument (hedge) in separate lines of the sensibility analysis table, in order to inform on the net exposure of the Company, in each of the three mentioned scenarios, as shown below:

The net exposure in CDI shown in the sensibility analysis does not reflect all the exposure of the Company and of its subsidiary (Vivo) to the local interest rate, once the Company has debts indexed to the CDI, and has short term financial investments based on the variation of the CDI (R$1,769,972 at June 30, 2009) as partial “natural hedge”.

For calculation of the net exposure, all the derivatives were considered at their fair value, as well as the associated debts (hedged elements).

The fair values, shown in the table above, depart from a portfolio position at June 30, 2009, however they do not reflect an estimate of realization due to the market dynamism, constantly monitored by the Company and its subsidiaries. The use of different premises may significantly affect the estimates.

27. POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFIT PLANS

Vivo, together with other companies belonging to the former Telebrás System, sponsor private pension plans and medical assistance plans for retired employees under the same conditions of the publication for the last fiscal year, as follows: i) PBS-A; ii) PAMA; iii) PBS- Telesp Celular, PBS-TCO, PBS Tele Sudeste Celular and PBS Tele Leste Celular;  iv) TCP Prev and TCO Prev Plans; v) Visão Celular Benefit Plans - Celular CRT, Telerj Celular, Telest Celular, Telebahia Celular and Telergipe Celular.

As disclosed in the publication for the last fiscal year, the management and equity of the above referred plans (except for the PBS-A and PAMA, which are still managed by Fundação SISTEL de Seguridade Social – SISTEL) was transferred to Visão Prev Sociedade de Previdência Complementar (“Visão Prev”).

On August 21, 2007, the regulation of Vivo-Prev plan was approved, an individual plan of defined contribution, which has already been managed by Visão Prev. The contributions of Vivo to this plan are equal to the ones from the participants, varying from 0% to 8% of the participation wage, as a function of the percentage chosen by the participant, with migration of the former plans to Vivo Prev, at free option of the participants. The adhesion to the new plan has been massive.

Vivo, through its actuarial consultants, has prepared studies considering the impact of ordinary action no. 04/081.668-0, brought by ASTEL against Fundação Sistel de Seguridade Social, in which Telefonica and Telesp Celular (company that was merged into Vivo) are mentioned, in addition to Sistel, which action is related to the change in the costing system and review of other PAMA benefits. Based on the opinion of its tax consultants, the Management believes that at this time there is no payment risk, and at June 30, 2009 the chance of loss was classified as possible. At June 30, 2009 the amount in question was R$1,675 (R$1,575 at March 31, 2009).

Telemig Celular individually sponsors a defined retirement benefits plan - Plano PBS Telemig Celular. Besides the benefit of supplementation, medical assistance (PAMA) is provided to retired employees and their dependents, at shared cost.

Telemig Celular also sponsors the CelPrev, a defined contribution plan, under the same conditions as published in the last fiscal year.

Actuarial provisions relating to the plans mentioned above are recorded in "Other liabilities" (Note 17).

28. TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES

The main transactions with unconsolidated related parties are:

a) Communication via local cellular phone and long distance and use of network : these transactions are carried out with companies of the same controlling group: Telecomunicações de São Paulo S.A. - TELESP and subsidiaries.

On November 16, 1998, the Company started trading ADRs on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under ticker symbol "TCP" and since March 31, 2006 under ticker symbol "VIV" (in accordance with the decision by the Special Shareholders’ Meeting of February 22, 2006), with the following main characteristics:

  • Type of shares: preferred
  • Each ADR represents 1 (one) preferred share
  • The shares are traded in the form of ADRs on the New York Stock Exchange under ticker symbol "VIV"
  • Foreign depositary bank: The Bank of New York
  • Custodian bank in Brazil: Banco Itaú S/A.

31. CORPORATE REORGANIZATION

On March 20, 2009, the Boards of Directors of Vivo Participações, Telemig Celular and Telemig Participações, in the form and for the purposes of CVM Instructions no. 319/999 and 358/02, informed that their respective Boards of Directors approved the proposal of organization of an independent committee (as per Practice Bulletin CVM no. 35/08) for a Corporate Reorganization through merger of the shares of Telemig Celular into Telemig Participações and of the shares of Telemig Participações into Vivo Participações, for conversion of Telemig Celular in to a wholly-owned subsidiary of Telemig Participações and, the latter, into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vivo Participações.

The purpose of the proposed Corporate Reorganization is to simply the current organizational structure, which includes three publicly-held companies, two of them having ADRs traded abroad. The simplified structure will reduce administrative costs and allow the shareholders of the companies to hold interest in one sole company whose shares are traded both in Brazilian and international stock exchanges, with more liquidity, besides facilitating unification, standardization and rationalization of the general management of the business.

The flow chart below, reproduced in a simple manner, shows the current corporate structure and the structure after implementation of the Corporate Reorganization, emphasizing that the referred transaction will not change the composition of the final share control of the companies involved:

Current Corporate Structure:

Corporate structure after merger of the shares of Telemig Celular into Telemig Participações and of Telemig Participações into Vivo Participações:

All the shares of Telemig Celular will be merged into Telemig Participações’ equity, and the holders of the merged shares of Telemig Celular will be entitled to directly receive those new shares to which they have right in the mergor company, Telemig Participações (the shareholders of Telemig Celular shall receive, for each share of Telemig Celular, 17.4 new shares of Telemig Participações). At the same date, the shares of Telemig Participações will be merged into Vivo Participações’ equity, and the holders of the merged shares of Telemig Participações will be entitled to directly receive those new shares (the shareholders of Telemig Participações shall receive, for each share of Telemig Participações, 1.37 new shares of Vivo Participações), pursuant to such exchange ratio as may be agreed at the Meetings of the Boards of Directors of the companies held on May 29, 2009.

The merger of the shares of Telemig Celular and of Telemig Participações shall not cause any change to the number or breakdown by type of shares, which will finally be entirely held by Vivo Participações. Holders of common and preferred shares of Telemig Celular which are merged into Telemig Participações’ equity will receive new shares in Telemig Participações of the same type, that is, merged preferred shares will be replaced by new preferred shares of Telemig Participações to be issued on behalf of the respective holder, and merged common shares shall be replaced by new common shares of Telemig Participações to be issued on behalf of the respective holder. Following, and in the same way, the holders of common and preferred shares of Telemig Participações which are merged into Vivo Participações’ equity will receive new shares of Vivo Participações of the same type. Thus, upon completion of the transaction, the non-controlling shareholders of Telemig Celular and of Telemig Participações will become shareholders of Vivo Participações.

The holders of common and preferred shares of Telemig Celular and of Telemig Participações and of common shares of Vivo Participações who dissent from the merger of shares of Telemig Celular and of Telemig Participações will have the right, as from the date of the general and special meetings of the companies adopting resolutions with respect to the Corporate Reorganization, to withdraw themselves from the respective companies, upon reimbursement of the shares of which they are proven to be holders on the date of the notice of the Relevant Fact.

Said Corporate Reorganization was informed to ANATEL. Since it refers to a Corporate Reorganization among companies belonging to the same economic group, the transaction described herein is not subject to approval from the Administrative Council for Economic Defense – CADE.

At July 20, 2009, the Securities and Exchange Commission – SEC, declared “Form F4” for merger registration to be effective, as required in SEC’s respective regulations, due to the trading of ADRs issued by Telemig Participações in the New York Stock Exchange).

At General and Special Meetings held on July 27, 2009, the shareholders of Telemig Celular, Telemig Participações and Vivo Participações approved the merger shares described above

At July 28, 2009, a “Notice to the Shareholders” was filed with CVM’s IPE system, opening the dissenting period from July 29, 2009 until August 28, 2009. Further details are available from our website www.vivo.com.br/ri

32. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

At July 10, 2009, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the 6th Issue of Promissory Notes, for public distribution with restricted placement efforts, under the terms of CVM Instruction 476/09, in the total amount of up to R$500 million, which were fully subscribed on July 24, 2009, with maturity date on October 22, 2009.

Growth of 7.1% in the net service revenue in 2Q09 in relation to 2Q08.

 

 

 

 

 

Continuous growth of data revenue and VAS.

Total net revenue grew 3.8% over 2Q08, due to the growth in the service revenue, which represents growth in all components. Such growth is a result of the natural growth in the customer base, of the actions for stimulation of the recharges and of the sale of products and VAS. In relation to 1Q09, the total net revenue decreased by 2.1%, mainly due to the reduction of 12.8% in the revenue from sales of handsets.

" Access and usage revenue " recorded an increase of 10.1% over 2Q08, mainly due to the increase in the customer base and to the incentive usage campaigns. When compared to 1Q09, it remained almost stable, with an increase of 0.7% in the access and usage revenue as a positive growth in the outgoing traffic.

Data revenue plus VAS have grown 29.9% and 3.3% over 2Q08 and 1Q09, respectively, representing 12.6% of the Net Service Revenue. Several factors contributed to this: 27.8% increase in the data revenue due to the SMS/MMS usage and 54.8% increase due to the Vivo Internet usage year-over-year. SMS/MMS has continued to be the largest selling service, accounting for more than 48% of the data and VAS revenue.

OPERATING COSTS


Cost of services increased due to expenses with Fistel Fee.

The 7.8% increase in the cost of the services rendered in 2Q09, when compared with 2Q08, is the result of the 29.4% increase in the costs for the Fistel Fee due to the growth of the customer base, the increase in the leased lines and the increase in rent, insurance and condominium expenses. In comparison with 1Q09, it recorded a growth of 1.5% related to the increase in rent, insurance and condominium expenses as well as interconnection costs, offset by a reduction in “other” costs, mainly those referring to the provision for losses with roaming.

Commercial and operational efficiency.

The cost of goods sold recorded a reduction of 25.3% and of 26.4%, in comparison of 2Q09 over 2Q08 and over 1Q09, respectively, even considering the increase in the customer base between the periods. This is due to the increase in sales of SIM Cards and in the number of gross additions.

 

In the 2Q09, the selling expenses decreased by 1.1% in relation to 2Q08. This decrease is related to the reduction in the provision for doubtful accounts (PDD) and expenses with customer retention and donations, partially affected by an increase in expenses with third-party services, such as sales commissions and support. These, on their turn, were offset by a reduction in publicity and advertising expenses. In the comparison with 1Q09, selling expenses increased by 17.7% due to the growth in expenses with third-party services, especially publicity and advertising, and with materials for points of sale, partially offset by the reduction in the provision for doubtful accounts (PDD).

PDD under control.

The Provision for Doubtful Accounts (PDD) in 2Q09 showed a reduction of 28.2% in relation to 2Q08. The amount of R$ 65.2 million represents 1.2% of the total gross revenue, lower than it was recorded in 2Q08, of 1.7%. In relation to the 1Q09, the reduction was of 0.2 percentage points. Vivo has continued with its collection actions and strict credit granting criteria, which have maintained this item under control.

 

The general and administrative expenses decreased by 22.2% in 2Q09 in relation to 2Q08, mainly due to the decrease in expenses with third-party services, especially technical assistance. In the comparison with 1Q09, the reduction was of 15.6%, reflecting once again lower expenses with third-party services, especially auditing, legal, data processing and technical services.

 

Other Operating Revenue/Expenses recorded revenue of R$ 50.3 million. The comparison with 1Q09 presents an increase in the revenue from recovered expenses, especially taxes. It must be pointed out that the non-recurrent amount of R$47.5 million is recorded in 2Q09, which refers to ICMS tax credit. By adjusting such effect, the revenue would be R$ 2.8 million. Due to the elimination of “Non-operating revenue/expenses” provided for in Law nº 11.941/09, the amount of R$ 37.6 was reclassified to “Other operating revenue(expenses)” in the 2Q08 Consolidated Income Statement.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION


Depreciation and amortization expenses recorded an increase of 11.6% in relation to 2Q08, due to the accelerated depreciation of the CDMA technology and to the investments in the period, in addition to the amortization of the restructured goodwill as a result of the acquisition of Telemig. When compared to 1Q09, it recorded an increase of 2.1%, due to higher investments made in the period and to the accelerated amortization of software because of integration with Telemig.

Drop of 26.0% in financial expenses in comparison with 1Q09.

In relation to 1Q09, Vivo’s financial expenses in 2Q09 decreased by R$ 38.7 million. This decrease is mainly explained by the drop in the financial expenses due to lower indebtedness (R$ 4,692.6 million in 2Q09 and R$5,579.5 million in 1Q09), impacted by the free cash generation in the period and by the reduction in the effective interest rate in the period (2.34% in 2Q09 and 2.85% in 1Q09). This situation was partially offset by the additional expense resulting from the assessment of R$ 9.4 million for PIS/Cofins related to the distribution of interest on own capital effected by Vivo S.A., its holding company.
When compared to 2Q08, Vivo’s net financial expenses increased by R$ 4.8 million – mainly due to the increase in the net debt resulting from the acquisition of 3G licenses and disbursements for acquisition of Telemig Celular Participações S.A. – and were partially offset by the drop in the effective interest rate in the period (2.34% in 2Q09 and 2.70% in 2Q08).

Release of more than R$ 125 million from the credit facility granted by the BNB

 

 

 

 

Improved debt profile.

The Company closed June 2009 with a debt of R$ 6,511.1 million (R$ 5,764.8 million at June 30, 2008), of which 20.4% is denominated in foreign currency, 100% of which being hedged. The debt recorded in the 2Q09 was offset by cash and financial investments (R$ 1,796.1 million) and by derivative assets and liabilities (R$ 22.4 million receivable), resulting in a net debt of R$4,692.6 million (R$ 3,574.3 million at June 30, 2008). Another portion of the credit facility granted by the BNB to the Company was released in this quarter, in the amount of R$ 124.6 million, with a remaining balance of R$ 134.8 million to be released in 4Q09, the Company having settled its 5th issue of Promissory Notes in the amount of R$ 587.4 million (R$ 550.0 million of principal and R$ 37.4 million of interest).
In the 2Q09, both the gross and the net debt recorded a drop of 16% in relation to 1Q09. The Company has continued to improve its debt profile. In 1Q09, 61.2% of the debt was at long term, while in the 2Q09 this percentage grew to 72.1%. This improvement in the debt composition is the result of structured fund raising transactions (BNDES and BNB) and the use of the credit facility for the 3G licenses made available by Anatel.

 

The increase in the net debt in 2Q09, when compared to 2Q08 (R$ 4,692.6 million in the 2Q09 and R$ 3,574.3 million in the 2Q08) is mainly due to the acquisitions of 3G licenses and of Telemig Celular Participações S/A, offset by generation of cash in the period.

Investments (CAPEX)

Investments in the GSM and WCDMA/HSUPA networks.

CAPEX in 2Q09 represents 15.4% of the net revenue. The expenditures were intended for ensuring: continued quality of the network in order to support the accelerated growth that Vivo has been experiencing, the increase of the GSM/EDGE capacity, the continued expansion of the WCDMA/HSUPA network, and the launching of the company’s operation in the Northeast region, in addition to meeting the coverage goals set forth by Anatel. The year-to-date CAPEX amounted R$ 1,148.1 million, lower than the amount recorded in the same period of previous year, due to the investment stability.
