(i) To proceed with studies on alternatives for the Capitalization of Sabesp ("Capitalization");

(ii) The hiring, by Sabesp, of the International Finance Corporation ("IFC"), an institution bound to the World Bank; and

(iii) The conclusion of an agreement between Sabesp and the São Paulo State Government, through the Secretariat of Sanitary and Water Resources and the Secretariat of Finance, to delineate the scope of the IFC's hiring and to govern the relationship between the contracting parties, including proportional reimbursement of expenses.

The proposed Capitalization provides the establishment of a new company to exercise Sabesp's direct corporate control after the conference of the totality of share interest owned by the São Paulo State Government into the stock capital of the new company. São Paulo State Government will continue, under any circumstances, to hold sufficient shareholding interest to assure the exercise of Sabesp's majority corporate control, as provided by law.
