Quaterly Results



                                         Adjusted EBITDA




   RGR: 3Q11 consolidated EBITDA was negatively affected by R$ 5.5 million, arising from the adjustment at
   an accounting entry in CEMAR (no cash affected) in RGR expenses referring to 1H11, part of Deductions
   from Operating Revenues. Thus, 3Q12 EBITDA grew by 7.5% over the 3Q11 adjusted EBITDA.


                                                                                                        13
Quaterly Results


                                        Adjusted Net Income




 RGR: The adjustment of CEMAR’s RGR accounting entry, net of tax and minority interest, negatively impacted
 net income by R$ 3.1 million. Considering this effect, 3Q12 NI was 13.4% higher than 3Q11 Adjusted NI.



                                                                                                       14
