a.1) Guarantees

Petrobras is not required to provide guarantees to financial institutions abroad. Financing obtained from BNDES is secured by the assets being financed (carbon steel pipes for the Bolivia-Brazil gas pipeline and vessels).

In guarantee of the debentures issued, Refap has a short-term investment account (deposits tied to loans), indexed to the variation of the Interbank Deposit Certificate (CDI). Refap has to maintain three times the value of the sum of the last instalment due for the amortization of the principal and related charges.

b) Indebtedness of CIESA and TGS

In order to clear the financial encumbrances of Compañia de Inversiones de Energia S.A. (CIESA) (a jointly controlled company), Pesa transferred its 7,35% interest in the capital of Transportadora de Gás Del Sur S.A. (TGS) (a subsidiary of CIESA) to ENRON and, simultaneously, ENRON transferred 40% of its interest in the capital of CIESA to a trustee.

In the second stage of the process, in conformity with the agreement for restructuring the financial debt, once the necessary approvals have been obtained from Ente Nacional Regulador Del Gas (ENARGAS) and Comisión Nacional de Defensa de la Competencia, ENRON would transfer the remaining 10% interest in CIESA to the financial creditors in exchange for 4,3% of the class B common shares of TGS that CIESA would deliver to its financial creditors as partial payment of the debt. The remaining balance of the financial debt would be capitalized by the creditors.

The restructuring agreement established a period of validity until December 31, 2008, as from which date any one of the parties could consider the agreement as unilaterally terminated.

The period of validity of the agreement expired without the government approvals having been obtained and on January 9, 2009, Ashmore Energy International Limited (currently AEI) declared that it was the sole owner of the negotiable obligations of CIESA in 1997, and notified its decision to terminate the restructuring agreement.

On January 28, 2009, CIESA filed litigation in the courts of the State of New York in the United States of America, challenging the lapse of the abovementioned negotiable obligations.

As it is operating under long-term constraints which significantly hinder its ability to transfer capital to its investors and while the process for clearing the company’s financial encumbrances is not concluded, CIESA will continue to be excluded from the consolidation process of Petrobras, in conformity with CVM Instruction 247/96.
