This excerpt taken from the PBR 20-F filed May 22, 2009. Redemption
and Rights of Withdrawal
Brazilian law provides that, under limited circumstances, a
shareholder has the right to withdraw his or her equity interest
from the company and to receive payment for the portion of
shareholders equity attributable to his or her equity
interest.
This right of withdrawal may be exercised by the holders of the
adversely affected common or preferred shares in the event that
we decide:
Holders of our common shares may exercise their right of
withdrawal in the event we decide:
The right of withdrawal may also be exercised by our dissenting
shareholders in the event we decide:
This right of withdrawal may also be exercised in the event that
the entity resulting from a merger, incorporação de
ações, as described above, or consolidation or
spin-off of a listed company fails to become a listed company
within 120 days of the shareholders meeting at which
such decision was taken.
Any redemption of shares arising out of the exercise of such
withdrawal rights would be made based on the book value per
share, determined on the basis of the last balance sheet
approved by our shareholders. However, if a shareholders
meeting giving rise to redemption rights occurred more than
60 days after the date of the last approved balance sheet,
a shareholder would be entitled to demand that his or her shares
be valued on the basis of a new balance sheet dated within
60 days of such shareholders meeting. The right of
withdrawal lapses 30 days after publication of the minutes
of the shareholders meeting that approved the corporate
actions described above. We would be entitled to reconsider any
action giving rise to withdrawal rights within ten days
following the expiration of such rights if the withdrawal of
shares of dissenting shareholders would jeopardize our financial
stability.
