A Publicly Traded Company with Authorized Capital
ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE MARKET
The management of BRF – Brasil Foods S.A. (“
BRF
” or “
Company
”), pursuant to Official Letter CVM/SEP/GEA-2/Nº257/2011, received by the Company from CVM (
CVM - Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil
) on July 11
th
2011 with respect to an article in the newspaper
O Estado de São Paulo
, July 9 2011 edition, under the headline: “BRF could sell 50% of plants in the domestic market” and “CADE wants to suspend the Perdigão brand”, informs the market as follows:
The Company has been in negotiations with the Administrative Council for Economic Defense
(“
CADE
”) which could result in the signing of a Performance Commitment Agreement (“
TCD
”) within the scope of the Concentration Act 08012.003189/2009-10, with respect to the business combination between BRF and Sadia S.A..
Given that these discussions are not conclusive and the terms and conditions of an eventual TCD are contingent upon CADE’s approval, only subsequent to this event can there be any certainty as to the content of the eventual aforementioned document.
The Company is unaware of the sources contacted by the newspaper for preparing the article as headlined above.
Finally, it should be placed on record that as of this date no binding agreement has been signed between BRF and CADE, and therefore there is no relevant fact to be announced to the market.
BRF will maintain the market informed as to developments on the matter in question
