Once concluded, the reduction in capital shall come about through the delivery of 12,362,202 (twelve million, three hundred sixty-two thousand, two hundred and two) shares issued by CPFL (“Shares”), of which 10,362,202 (ten million, three hundred and sixty-two thousand, two hundred and two) Shares linked to the Purchase Option Agreement owned by Bonaire and 2,000,000 (two million) Shares not linked to the Purchase Option Agreement (“Capital Reduction”), as shown in the annex.

 

As a result of the Capital Reduction, the Shares shall be transferred to Energia São Paulo Fundo de Investimento em Participações (“Energia FIP”), in its condition as single shareholder of Bonaire, immediately following the expiration of the deadline for opposition by creditors foreseen in article 174 of the Corporation Law.
