MARKET ANNOUNCEMENT

 

Brazilian Appeal Court interim decision on Jaguara Plant concession

 

Cemig (Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais), a listed company with securities traded on the stock exchanges of São Paulo, New York and Madrid — in accordance with CVM Instruction 358 of January 3, 2002, as amended — hereby reports to the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM), the São Paulo Stock, Commodities and Futures Exchange (BM&F Bovespa S.A.) and the market in general, as follows:

 

On June 20, 2013 Brazil’s Higher Appeal Court (STJ — Superior Tribunal de Justiça) issued an interim judgment against the Brazilian Mining and Energy Ministry in the action for mandamus brought by Cemig GT (Cemig Geração e Transmissão S.A.) for an order to require the Ministry to consider the extension of Cemig GT’s concession to operate the Jaguara Hydroelectric Plant (generation capacity 424MW, assured power 336 MW). That concession expires on August 28, 2013.

 

The interim judgment, given by Reporting Justice Sérgio Kukina, ensures that Cemig GT continues to operate the concession of the Jaguara Plant until the final judgment of the action.

 

Cemig does not yet have access to the full content of the judgment, which is scheduled for publication on June 24, 2013.

 

It should be noted that this is a preliminary preventive decision by the Judiciary, and that there is at present no decision on the merits of the action. The Higher Appeal Court will examine the merits of the action at a later date.

 

Cemig sees this decision as an unequivocal demonstration of the independence and autonomy of Brazil’s Judiciary. It underlines Cemig’s absolute confidence in the Constitutional powers of the Brazilian republic in their mission to guarantee and uphold the rights of citizens.

 

Cemig reiterates its commitment to establishing fair prices for services provided to the consumer, and also the quality of services, and their sustainability in the use of natural and human resources — so as to ensure that future generations can enjoy the same benefits.

 

Cemig will keep its stockholders and the market opportunely and appropriately informed on the progress of this case.

MARKET ANNOUNCEMENT

 

Report on acquisitions: comment

 

Cemig (Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais), a listed company with securities traded on the stock exchanges of São Paulo, New York and Madrid, hereby comments to the market, the public and — in accordance with CVM Instruction 358 of January 3, 2002 — the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM) and the São Paulo Stock, Commodities and Futures Exchange (BM&F Bovespa S.A.) as follows:

 

In relation to the report in the June 28, 2013 issue of Isto É Dinheiro magazine, under the headline “Cemig goes shopping” — which includes the following: —

 

[...]  We will focus our attention, as priority, on generation, and then, subsequently, on transmission”, said Morais. He does not rule out acquisition of assets of the Rede Group, which have become some of the most coveted assets in the sector.”    [...] —

 

Cemig comments as follows:

 

We reaffirm that, as part of its strategy, Cemig seeks growth in the short and medium term through acquisitions that are able to add value to the operation of its present assets, and provide our stockholders with an appropriate and attractive return on their investments — as expressed at our 18th Annual Cemig-Apimec meeting, this year. The Company’s strategy is founded on the constant search for operational efficiency, and maintenance of its recognized discipline of investing in assets that add value, and Cemig believes this strategy will certainly contribute significantly to Cemig’s sustainable growth in the long term.

 

Cemig continues to be attentive to events in the market, in its quest for opportunities in its three main activities in the electricity sector — generation, transmission, and distribution — continually ensuring the balance of its portfolio of businesses, and thus ensuring continuous compliance with the targets in its Long-Term Strategic Plan. Within this long-term vision, the acquisition was recently announced of a 49% interest in Brasil PCH; similarly we continue to maintain negotiations and evaluate other opportunities — including the Rede Group. However, we have no developments to report that qualify as requiring publication of a Material Announcement, under the terms of CVM Instruction 358.

 

Cemig reaffirms its commitment to seek investment opportunities that meet the requirements of profitability established by its stockholders and to publish all and any material information when it is confirmed and effective.
