ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

The Reporting Persons are shareholders of Telemar Participações S.A. (“TmarPart”) which acquired the Common Shares that are the subject of this Statement through (i) the merger of Brasil Telecom Participações S.A. (“Brasil Telecom Holding”) with and into Brasil Telecom, which was approved by the shareholders of Brasil Telecom and Brasil Telecom Holding on September 30, 2009, and (ii) several prior transactions involving Coari Participações S.A. (“Coari”) described in detail below.

Coari was a holding company that Telemar Norte Leste S.A. (“Telemar”), a direct subsidiary of Tele Norte Leste Participações S.A. (“TNL” and together with Coari, Telemar and the Issuer, the “Oi Companies”), which in turn was a direct subsidiary of TmarPart, acquired in December 2003, for the purpose of acquiring stakeholdings, as a partner or shareholder, in other companies, both commercial and civil, within Brazil or abroad. As of September 30, 2009, Coari’s principal assets consisted of shares of Brasil Telecom and Brasil Telecom Holding.

Coari started its operations on April 25, 2008, when it acquired Copart 1 Participações S.A. (“Copart 1”) and Copart 2 Participações S.A. (“Copart 2”). Copart 1 was a holding company that was incorporated in January 2008. Copart 2 was a holding company that was incorporated in October 2007. Prior to April 25, 2008, neither Copart 1 nor Copart 2 had any assets or operations.

 

5


Between April 25, 2008 and June 17, 2008, Coari acquired:

 

   

through its subsidiary Copart 1, 55,819,400 preferred shares of Brasil Telecom Holding, representing 24.3% of the outstanding preferred shares of Brasil Telecom Holding and 15.4% of the share capital of Brasil Telecom Holding, for an aggregate purchase price of R$1,425 million in transactions conducted over the Brazilian Securities, Commodities and Futures Exchange (BM&FBOVESPA S.A. — Bolsa de Valores Mercadorias e Futuros, the “BOVESPA”), and

 

   

through its subsidiary Copart 2, 45,590,200 preferred shares of Brasil Telecom, representing 15.3% of the outstanding preferred shares of Brasil Telecom and 8.3% of the share capital of Brasil Telecom, for an aggregate purchase price of R$898 million in transactions conducted over the BOVESPA.

On July 22, 2008, Coari acquired:

 

   

through a public tender offer made by its subsidiary Copart 1, 20,826,442 preferred shares of Brasil Telecom Holding, representing 9.1% of the outstanding preferred shares of Brasil Telecom Holding and 5.7% of the outstanding share capital of Brasil Telecom Holding, for an aggregate purchase price of R$635 million, and

 

   

through a public tender offer made by its subsidiary Copart 2, 13,366,365 preferred shares of Brasil Telecom, representing 4.5% of the outstanding preferred shares of Brasil Telecom and 2.4% of the outstanding share capital of Brasil Telecom, for an aggregate purchase price of R$313 million.

As of December 31, 2008, (1) Copart 1 held 21.1% of the total share capital of Brasil Telecom Holding, and (2) Copart 2 held 10.5% of the total share capital of Brasil Telecom. All of the shares of Brasil Telecom Holding and Brasil Telecom held by Copart 1 and Copart 2 at that time were non-voting preferred shares.

On January 8, 2009, Coari’s subsidiary Copart 1 acquired all of the outstanding shares of Invitel S.A. (“Invitel”), and 12,185,836 common shares of Brasil Telecom Holding owned by the shareholders of Invitel for an aggregate purchase price of R$5,371 million. At that time, Invitel owned 100% of the outstanding shares of Solpart Participações S.A. (“Solpart”), which owned 52.0% of the outstanding voting share capital, representing 19.0% of the outstanding share capital, of Brasil Telecom Holding, which, in turn, owned 67.2% of Brasil Telecom’s outstanding share capital, including 99.1% of Brasil Telecom’s outstanding voting share capital. As a result of this acquisition, Coari acquired indirect control of Brasil Telecom Holding and Brasil Telecom.

On June 23, 2009, Coari acquired:

 

   

through a public tender offer made by its subsidiary Copart 1, 40,452,227 common shares of Brasil Telecom Holding, representing 30.5% of the outstanding common shares of Brasil Telecom Holding and 11.2% of the outstanding share capital of Brasil Telecom Holding, for an aggregate purchase price of R$2,618 million, and

 

   

through a public tender offer made by its subsidiary Copart 2, 630,872 common shares of Brasil Telecom, representing 0.3% of the outstanding common shares of Brasil Telecom and 0.1% of the outstanding share capital of Brasil Telecom, for an aggregate purchase price of R$38 million.

On July 31, 2009, Coari undertook the transactions described below to eliminate the intermediate holding companies in Coari’s ownership structure of Brasil Telecom Holding and Brasil Telecom:

 

   

Invitel merged with and into Solpart, with Solpart as the surviving company;

 

6


   

Solpart merged with and into Copart 1, with Copart 1 as the surviving company;

 

   

Copart 1 merged with and into Brasil Telecom Holding, with Brasil Telecom Holding as the surviving company; and

 

   

Copart 2 merged with and into Brasil Telecom, with Brasil Telecom as the surviving company.

As a result of these transactions, Brasil Telecom Holding became a direct subsidiary of Coari.

On September 30, 2009, the shareholders of each of Brasil Telecom and Brasil Telecom Holding approved a merger (incorporação) under Brazilian law of Brasil Telecom Holding with and into Brasil Telecom, with Brasil Telecom as the surviving company. Pursuant to the merger:

 

   

each issued and then outstanding common share of Brasil Telecom Holding (other than any common shares held by shareholders seeking withdrawal of their common shares) was converted automatically into 1.2190981 common shares of Brasil Telecom;

 

   

each issued and then outstanding preferred share of Brasil Telecom Holding was converted automatically into 0.1720066 common shares of Brasil Telecom and 0.9096173 preferred shares of Brasil Telecom; and

 

   

all issued and then outstanding shares of Brasil Telecom held by Brasil Telecom Holding were cancelled.

As a result of the merger, Brasil Telecom became a direct subsidiary of Coari and Brasil Telecom Holding ceased to exist.

ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

The merger of Brasil Telecom Holding with and into Brasil Telecom described in Item 3 was the first step in a proposed corporate reorganization that Telemar and its subsidiaries that control Brasil Telecom expected to undertake to reorganize Telemar’s interests in Brasil Telecom. That corporate reorganization was expected to be accomplished through three transactions that were to occur consecutively and would have cumulatively resulted in the conversion of the publicly held shares of Brasil Telecom Holding and Brasil Telecom into shares of Telemar: (1) the merger of Brasil Telecom Holding with and into Brasil Telecom, which was effectively completed on September 30, 2009, (2) a merger of shares (incorporação de ações) under Brazilian law in which shares of Coari, a wholly owned subsidiary of Telemar, would have been issued in exchange for shares of Brasil Telecom, other than shares of Brasil Telecom held directly by Coari, and (3) a merger (incorporação) under Brazilian law of Coari with and into Telemar, with Telemar as the surviving company.

On December 1, 2009, the Oi Companies announced the terms of the Coari share exchange. On January 14, 2010, the Oi Companies announced that they had decided to postpone the Coari share exchange, because the proposed exchange ratio for the subsequent merger of Coari into Telemar that had been announced on April 25, 2008 did not consider the effects of an increase of the provision for contingencies related to certain civil claims against Brasil Telecom in the gross amount of R$1,290 million, which Brasil Telecom was required to recognize in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009.

On March 25, 2010, TNL and Telemar announced that the board of directors of Telemar had approved new exchange ratios for the merger of Coari into Telemar, adjusted to reflect the modification of the provision for contingencies related to certain civil claims against Brasil Telecom. On April 22, 2010, the board of directors of Brasil Telecom approved the new exchange ratios for the merger of Coari into Telemar, subject to the approval of the non-controlling holders of common and preferred shares of Brasil Telecom.

On June 16, 2010, the Oi Companies announced that at the general shareholders meeting of Brasil Telecom held on that date to consider the new exchange ratios for the merger of Coari into Telemar, the non-controlling holders of common and preferred shares of Brasil Telecom did not approve the new exchange ratios, and that, as a result, the remaining steps of the proposed corporate reorganization were indefinitely suspended.

On April 5, 2011, TmarPart began internal discussions regarding a new proposal to simplify the corporate structure of the Oi Companies. TmarPart engaged financial advisors and legal advisors during April 2011 to assist them in evaluating potential alternative corporate structures. These internal discussions continued during April and May 2011, becoming more frequent during May 2011. During April and May 2011, TNL and its subsidiaries provided information regarding the operations and financial condition of TNL and its subsidiaries to TmarPart to assist in evaluating such proposal.

As a result of these discussions, TmarPart publicly announced the proposed corporate reorganization (the “Corporate Reorganization”) on May 24, 2011. The Corporate Reorganization was effectively completed on February 27, 2012 and consisted of the following steps:

 

   

a split-off and share exchange under Brazilian law in which (1) Telemar transferred the shares of Coari that Telemar owned to Coari, (2) Coari assumed a portion of the liabilities of Telemar, (3) the common and preferred shares of Telemar (other than the shares of holders who exercise their withdrawal rights with respect to such shares) will be exchanged for newly issued common and preferred shares of Coari upon the termination of the period for exercise of withdrawal rights, and (4) Coari retained the Telemar shares exchanged for Coari shares and as a result, Telemar became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Coari;

 

   

the merger of Coari into Brasil Telecom, resulting in Coari ceasing to exist and Telemar becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of Brasil Telecom; and

 

   

the merger of TNL into Brasil Telecom, resulting in TNL ceasing to exist.

In connection with the Corporate Reorganization, on February 24, 2012, TmarPart exchanged all of the class A preferred shares of Telemar that it owned for common shares of TNL held by Jereissati Telecom, Andrade Gutierrez S.A. and Bratel Brasil S.A. (“Bratel”), each a shareholder of TmarPart, in order to ensure that upon the completion of the Corporate Reorganization, TmarPart retained the voting control of Brasil Telecom in order to comply with the legal and regulatory obligations of TmarPart to ANATEL.

In connection with the Corporate Reorganization, Brasil Telecom issued and distributed redeemable shares of Brasil Telecom to holders of Brasil Telecom shares prior to the mergers of Coari and TNL into Brasil Telecom and redeemed those shares for cash immediately following their issuance. In addition, Brasil Telecom was renamed Oi S.A.

The Corporate Reorganization was undertaken to:

 

   

simplify the corporate structure of the Oi Companies, which was extremely complex and included three publicly-held companies with seven different classes of publicly-traded shares, and simplify the corporate governance of the Oi Companies by consolidating the shareholder bases of the Oi Companies in one public company with two classes of shares that will be traded in Brazil and abroad;

 

   

reduce operational, administrative and financial costs following the consolidation of the general management of the Oi Companies, the simplification of their capital structure, and the improvement of their ability to attract investments and access the capital markets;

 

   

align the interests of the shareholders of the Oi Companies;

 

   

enhance the liquidity of the shares of Brasil Telecom; and

 

   

eliminate the costs of separate listings of the shares of TNL, Telemar and Brasil Telecom, as well as those costs arising from separately complying with the public disclosure requirements applicable to TNL, Telemar and Brasil Telecom.
