2.       We note your statement that    . . . actual results will likely
differ, and may differ
         materially, from those reflected in the preliminary results. . .    If
you choose to disclose
         preliminary results, you should be able to assert that the actual
results are not expected to
         differ materially from those reflected in the preliminary results.
Accordingly, please
         remove or revise this statement.
3.       We note your disclosure that you do not undertake any obligation to
update or otherwise
         revise the preliminary results even in the event that any or all of
the underlying
         assumptions are shown to be in error. Please revise your disclaimer to
clarify that you will
         update your disclosure if required by applicable law.
Use of Proceeds, page 85

4.       In the second paragraph of this section, you disclose that each
US$1.00 increase
         (decrease) in the assumed initial public offering price of US$16.50
per share would
         increase (decrease) the net proceeds to you by approximately US$17.55.
Please revise to
         clarify, if true, that this is in millions.
Dilution, page 89

5.       Please provide us your calculation of net tangible book value of
R$(1,763) million and the
         calculations disclosed in your table. It appears your table begins
with pro forma net
         tangible book value giving effect to the restructuring and
contribution which after
         reflecting the increase due to new investors in the offering should
result in pro forma as
         adjusted net tangible book value. Further, we note your disclosure
that you calculate this
         measure as total assets less total liabilities excluding goodwill and
other intangible assets.
         Please tell us if you have included deferred tax assets, and if so,
how you determined they
         were tangible assets. Please advise and revise as appropriate.
