Rio de Janeiro, May 15, 2014.
Distribution Company’s consumption grew 7.8% in 1Q14
Consolidated net income increased 129.5%
Total energy consumption came to 7,374 GWh in 1Q14, 7.8% up from 1Q13 driven by increased consumption in
the residential and commercial segments, which rised by 13.6% and 8.3%, respectively;
Consolidated net revenue, excluding revenue from construction, totaled R$2,118.7 million in 1Q14, 20.1% up from
1Q13. Despite the growth in all segments, the comercialization and generation activities stood out in the quarter,
posting revenue growth of 87.1% and 45.4%, respectively, when compared with the same period last year;
Consolidated EBITDA1 amounted to R$452.9 million in the quarter, 27.5% higher than in 1Q13, impacted by spot
market energy sales by the generation company. When adjusted for the CVA, EBITDA came to R$434.7 million in
1Q14, 4.7% down from 1Q13 Adjusted EBITDA .
Net income totaled R$180.5 million in the quarter, 129.5% up from 1Q13, due to the operational performace in the
generation segment and the improved financial result. When adjusted for the CVA, net income totaled R$168.5
million, 15.9% above the figure reported in
1Q13.
Non-technical energy losses in the last 12
months, as a percentage of billed energy in the
low-voltage market (ANEEL criterion), due to
high temperatures in the quarter, recorded a
slight increase of 0.2 p.p. in relation to the
previous quarter, reaching 42.4% in March 2014.
Collections stood at 94.6% of billed consumption
in 1Q14, 6.4 p.p. down on the same quarter last
year. Provisions for Past Due Accounts (PCLD)
represented 1.0% of gross billed energy, totaling
R$25.3 million, an improvement of 12.8% over
1Q13.
The Company closed 1Q14 with net debt of
R$5,341.8 million, 1.8% up from December 2013
net debt, adjusted by the pension fund, which was fully settled in February 2014. The net debt/EBITDA ratio stood
at 2.90x.

Presentation of 1Q13 results
The Company’s 1Q13 results were reclassified due to the decision of the Management to present PIS and COFINS tax
credits on purchased energy as a reduction factor for purchased energy costs instead of presenting them as a
reduction in PIS and COFINS on revenue. The purpose of this reclassification was to align the presentation criterion
with the best practices of companies in the same sector.
The reclassification affected net revenue and non-manageable costs, but it did not affect EBITDA and net income.
The Administration also reviewed the criteria for the presentation of contractual debt amortization with the pension
plan in the statement of cash flows, providing only a reclassification for the period of 2013 for comparison purposes.
For further information, see Exhibit VI attached to this release.

2. Operating Performance
2.1 Distribution
Total energy consumption in Light SESA’s concession area (captive clients + transport of free clients2) came to 7,374
GWh in 1Q14, 7.8% up from the same period in 2013, mainly due to the increases of 13.6% and 8.3% in residential
and commercial consumption, respectively. Residential consumption totaled 2,752 GWh in the quarter, accounting
for 37.3% of the total market, 13.6% up from 1Q13, driven by the 1.3ºC year-on-year increase in the average
temperature. Note that, in 1Q14, the residential segment recorded its highest consumption in the last ten years.
Commercial clients consumed 2,267 GWh in 1Q14, equivalent to 30.7% of the total market, an upturn of 8.3% over
1Q13. In the first quarter of 2014, the free market received 11 migrations from the captive market, which
corresponded to an increase of 15 GWh in the quarter.
2 In view of ANEEL’s ratification of the market during the tariff revision process, consumption by the free client CSN is included as of the fourth
quarter of 2013.
6
Industrial consumption amounted to 1,330 GWh in 1Q14, representing 18.0% of the total market, a decline of 2.1%
in relation to the same period last year, due to weaker performance of electro-intensive industries, with activities of
manufacture of steel/alumnium and in the chemical sector. Excluding this effect, industrial consumption posted an
increase of 4.4% over 1Q13.
In the “others” category, which accounted for 13.9% of the total market, consumption increased by 6.1% in 1Q14
over 1Q13. The rural, government and public utility categories reported respective increases of 42.9%, 7,1% and
5.0% over 1Q13, representing 0.3%, 6.2% and 4.8%, respectively, of the total market.

Energy Losses
In the last 12 months, non-technical energy losses totaled 5,955 GWh, accounting for 42.4% of billed energy in the
low-voltage market (ANEEL criterion). There was a slight increase of 0.2 p.p. in relation to the twelve-month period
ending in December 2013, as a result of the hot weather in 1Q14. Compared to the 12-month period ending in March
2013, there was a reduction of 2.5 p.p., when the non-technical losses amounted to 44.9% of the low voltage market.
Light SESA’s total energy losses amounted to 8,748 GWh, or 23.2% of the grid load, in the 12 months ended March
2014.
In order to improve the reduction in non-technical energy losses, Light has been continuously investing in initiatives
that include conventional fraud inspection procedures, the upgrading of network and measurement systems, and the
Zero Loss Area program (APZ). These initiatives include:
Regularization of consumer units: The Company
conducted, in the low, medium and high-voltage
segments, 14,495 regularization procedures in 1Q14,
15.7% up from the 12,525 recorded in 1Q13,

resulting in the incorporation of 33.9 GWh, versus 23.9 GWh in 1Q13 (up 41.8%). Recovered energy was 37.7
GWh in 1Q14, 4.6% down on the 39.5 GWh reported in 1Q13.
Installation of remote electronic metering devices: SMC
(centralized metering system) devices are installed in areas with
high loss rates, with or without the support of Pacifying Police
Units (UPPs). The UPPs give Light more room for maneuver in
regard to combating default or energy theft. The Company
installed 7,356 such devices in UPP-protected areas in 1Q14,
resulting in the incorporation of 8.2 GWh. In areas outside the
sphere of the UPPs, Light installed 27,217 devices, with the
incorporation of 6.5 GWh. As a result, the Company closed 1Q14
with 467,000 installed electronic meters, 31.5% more than in
1Q13. The goal is to have 203,000 installed electronic meters in 2014, of which 55,500 in the communities
and 147,500 outside the communities, so that the Company will close 2014 with 635,000 installed electronic
meters.
Zero Loss Areas (APZ): In August 2012, the Company created the APZ Project, based on a combination of
electronic metering and a shielded network, supported by dedicated teams of technicians and customer
relations personnel with clearly defined targets, whose compensation is tied to improving loss and default
indicators in their respective areas. A typical APZ has around 17,000 clients. The project, known commercially
as Light Legal, which receives support from SEBRAE in regard to the training of partnering micro-
entrepreneurs, closed March 2014 with 27 operational APZs and 446,000 clients in the Baixada Fluminense
region, and the city’s south, west and north sides.
9
By March 2014, 109,000 electronic meters had already been installed in the communities, and since the
beginning of the project, the APZs in place have already resulted in an average 29.5 p.p. reduction in non-
technical energy losses on the grid load and an average revenue increase of 6.7 p.p. The table below shows
the results per installed APZ through March 2014 in the 22 areas where the results have been determined:
Complementing the 22 areas with ascertained results, the table below shows the 5 APZ's areas under
implementation and still no calculated results, totaling 27 areas in operation.

Collection
The first-quarter collection rate stood at 94.6% of
billed consumption, 6.4 p.p. down on 1Q13,
declining in all segments. The reduction was
primarily due to the Extraordinary Tariff
Adjustment in January 24, 2013, which reduced
tariffs by 19.63%, resulting in an atypical
collection rate of 101.0% in the first quarter of
2013, when lots billed before the tariff
adjustment were collected after the tariffs were
reduced.
In 1Q14, provisions for past due accounts (PCLD) represented 1.0% of
gross billed energy and totaled R$25.3 million, 3.7 million lower than
the R$29.0 million provisioned in 1Q13, or 1.2% of billed energy in that
quarter. In the last 12 months, PCLD represented 1.8% of gross supply
energy in March 2014, 1.0 p.p. lower than the 2.8% recorded in the
same period last year.

Operating Quality
In 1Q14, in the overhead distribution network, 388 medium-voltage distribution circuits were inspected/maintained,
1,733 transformers were replaced and 38,048 trees were pruned. In the underground distribution network, 5,420
transformer vaults and 15,022 manholes were inspected. In addition, 32 transformers, 30 switches and 894
protectors were maintained.
In the last 12 months, the moving average of the equivalent length of interruption indicator (DEC), expressed in time,
registered 15.34 hours, 21,73% less than in 1Q13, while that of the equivalent frequency of interruption indicator
(FEC), expressed in occurrences, stood at 7.49 times, 13,61% lower than that achieved in the same period of 2013.
In all indicators referring to the first quarter of 2014, there was an improved performance of the network as a result
of the reorganization of processes in the distribution department and the initiatives implemented under the plan of
action initiated in June 2013. More intensive tree pruning and energy network maintenance measures are presenting
positive impacts on the results, enabling better performance in terms of DEC and FEC indicators in 1Q14 in relation
to 1Q13.

2.2 Generation
The total sales of Light Energia, net purchased was 1,264.1 GWh in 1Q14, in line with the same period last year, given
the seasonality of contracts. The Generation Scaling Factors (GSF) observed in January, February and March 2014
were 96.32%, 98.29% and 93.79%, respectively, versus 74.87%, 100.15% and 101.91% in the same months in 2013.
There was no energy sold on the captive market (ACR), due to the expiration of the energy sale contracts last
December 2013. However, on the free market (ACL), energy sold came to 1,131.1 GWh in 1Q14, 15.5% up, due to the
migration of part of the non-contracted energy from the ACR.
On the spot market, there was a substantial increase of 469.1% over the first quarter of 2013, due to a less
expressive seazonality of energy contracts compared to 1Q13, increasing the difference between the volumes of
verified energy and contracted energy.
2.3 Commercialization and Services
In the first quarter of 2014, direct energy sales by Light Esco and LightCom from
conventional and subsidized sources totaled 1,338.0 GWh, versus 1,030.8 GWh in the
same period in 2013, representing an increase of 29.8%.
Eleven service provision projects were in progress, including a co-generation project for
a large beverage company, which began operating partially in 1Q14 with the production
of electricity, steam, nitrogen and CO2. The plant is expected to be fully operational in
the second quarter of 2014.

The increase was primarily due to the 7.8% market growth and the 1.3% increase in the average energy tariff
(excluding the special obligations effect), as of November 7, 2013, ratified by the Tariff Revision process.
The distribution market consists mostly of the residential and commercial segments, which together represent 64.9%
of consumption, and account for 76.8% of energy sales revenue.
Additionally, this quarter the Distributor obtained revenue of R$17.1 million from surplus demand and reactivations
and R$46.8 million from the differential tariff related to the special treatment of non-technical losses in the
concession area which have been treated as Special Obligations. Although billed in gross revenue, it does not
compound the net revenue since the last tariff revision in November 2013.
Generation
Net revenue from generation totaled R$211.2 million, 45.4% more than in 1Q13, due to the availability of energy
sold on the spot market at an avarage price of R$ 658,3/MWh.
In 1Q14, the average sale price of energy contracts traded on the free market (ACL), net of taxes, was R$115.2/MWh,
in line with the R$115.8/MWh, weighted by both markets (ACL and ACR), in 1Q13.
Commercialization and Services
Net revenue from commercialization and services stood at R$294.0 million in 1Q14, 87.1% up from 1Q13, reflecting
the substantial period increase in energy prices and sales volume, primarily as a result of the reallocation of Light
Energia’s captive market contracts terminated to the free market.
The average sales price, net of taxes, totaled R$213.5/MWh in 1Q14, 37.7% up from the R$155.0/MWh recorded in
the same period in 2013.

Non-Manageable Costs and Expenses
In 1Q14, non-manageable costs and expenses came to R$1,226.7 million, 9.0%
up from the same period in 2013, chiefly due to the 13.7% upturn in
purchased energy costs. This result already includes the transfer of CDE and
ACR funds totaling R$1,161.0 million in 1Q14, in accordance with Decree
8203/14 and Decree 8221/14.
The increase in purchased energy costs was a reflection of: (i) contracting
through the Auction A-1, held in December 2013, priced at R$ 177,22 reais,
higher than the average price of contracts in force before; (iii) yearly
contractual adjustments, such as with the Norte Fluminense which take place
in November, and Itaipu, which occurred in January; and (iv) by the growth of
purchased energy, considering the 7.8% increase of consumption in the
concession area.
Costs with charges and transmission felt by 24.6%, mainly due to the
reduction in the network usage charge, as a result of the renewal of certain
transmission companies’ contracts.

Non-manageable costs are passed on to consumer tariffs and any increase or reduction in such costs in relation to
the regulatory level constitutes a regulatory asset or liability (CVA) balance, to be taken into account in the next tariff
readjustment, but which is not recorded in the income statement in accordance with International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRS). In 1Q14, regulatory liabilities totaled R$18.3 million, versus regulatory assets of R$101.2
million in 1Q13.
The average purchased energy cost, excluding spot market purchases, amounted to R$150.7/MWh in 1Q14, 10.9%
up from the R$136.0/MWh recorded in 1Q13.
Manageable Costs and Expenses
In the first quarter of 2014, manageable operating costs and expenses, comprising personnel, materials, outsourced
services, provisions, depreciation and others, totaled R$350.6 million, 10.6% up from 1Q13.
Costs and expenses from personnel, materials, outsourced services and others (PMSO) totaled R$187.8 million in the
first quarter, 2.1% up from the same period in 2013, chiefly due to the 42.3%, 21.9% and 2.6% increases in materials,
others and outsourced services, respectively.
The decline in the personnel line was due to higher volume invested in labor capitalization, totaling R$8.2 million,
compared 1Q13. The upturn in the materials and outsourced services lines was primarily a reflection of higher
investments in the Zero Loss Area program (APZ), in view of the progress made in the projects, totaling
approximately R$7.4 million.
In 1Q14, the others line recorded an increase in relation to the same period in 2013, as a result of: (i) the R$2.3
million referring to anticipation of software maintenance; and (ii) the R$3.1 million spent on advertising campaign
for raising awareness of the efficient use of energy.
The provisions line totaled R$65.3 million, 44.3% up from the first quarter of 2013, due to the constitution of the
following provisions in the 1Q14: (i) R$26.9 million for contingencies, mainly related to labor suits and judicial
deposits, and (ii) R$5,9 million in judicial deposits. In 1Q14, provisions for past due accounts (PCLD) came to R$25.3
million, 12.8% below the R$29.0 million recorded in 1Q13.
The depreciation and amortization line increased by 6.0% over 1Q13, due to the higher volume of investments, with
more assets incorporated to the network in 2013.
The Other Operating Revenue/Expenses line totaled R$12.1 million in the quarter, 66.3% up from the R$7.3 million
recorded in 1Q13, resulting from write-offs in view of deactivation of assets to intangible assets.

Generation
In 1Q14, Light Energia’s costs and expenses amounted to R$38.4 million, an increase of 0.7% over 1Q13.
First-quarter costs and expenses were broken down as follows: personnel (14.8%), materials and outsourced services
(9.5%), CUSD/CUST — distribution/transmission system usage/Purchased Energy (20.4%), depreciation and others
(55.2%). PMSO per MWh in the quarter came to R$14.4/MWh, versus R$14.1/MWh in 1Q13.
Commercialization and Services
Costs and expenses totaled R$276.5 million in 1Q14, 87.7% higher than in the first quarter of 2013. The increase was
mainly due to the 84.0% surge in purchased energy costs in relation to the figure reported in 1Q13, resulting from
the higher volume of energy purchased for commercialization and spot market prices. The 326.1% increase in the
materials and outsourced services line was mainly due to the partial start-up of a co-generation project for a large
beverage company.

3.3 EBITDA3
Consolidated
Consolidated EBITDA totaled R$452.9 million in 1Q14, 27.5% up from 1Q13, while the EBITDA margin4 incresead
from 20.1% to 21.4% in the same period. The distribution, generation and commercialization segments grew by
11.7%, 53.2% and 76.9%, respectively.
The first-quarter increase can be explained by two factors: (i) increase in generation revenue due to energy sale on
the spot market; and (ii) the 9.3% increase in net revenue from distribution, driven by the 7.8% growth of the captive
market.
All the Company’s business segments recorded EBITDA growth, however the distribution segment decreased its
period share of consolidated EBITDA from 63.8% in 1Q13 to 56,0% in 1Q14, while the share of the generation and
commercialization segments climbed from 36.2% in 1Q13 to 44.0% in 1Q14.
3 EBITDA is calculated in accordance with CVM Instruction 527/2012 and refers to net income + income and social contribution taxes + net financial expenses + depreciation and amortization. 4Revenue from construction was not considered in the calculation of the consolidated and distribution EBITDA margins, due to the booking of revenues and costs with a zero margin.

When adjusted for the CVA, i.e. regulatory assets and liabilities that will be taken into account in the distributor’s
next tariff adjustment, reflecting, therefore, gross cash flow potential, adjusted EBITDA came to R$434.7 million in
1Q14, a decrease of 4.7% compared to Adjusted EBITDA for the same quarter of 2013.
Distribution
In 1Q14, the distribution company’s EBITDA totaled R$254.8 million, 11.7% up from 1Q13, driven by the 7.8% growth
of the market in the quarter. The EBITDA margin5 stood at 14.6%, 0.3 p.p. higher than in 1Q13. When adjusted for
the CVA, distribution EBITDA came to R$236.5 million, 28.2% down year-on-year.
Generation
Light Energia recorded 1Q14 EBITDA of R$182.8 million, 53.2% up from the same quarter in 2013, due to the volume
of energy sold on the spot market.The EBITDA margin achieved 86.5%, 4.4 p.p. up from 1Q13.
Commercialization and Services
EBITDA from commercialization and services totaled R$17.5 million in 1Q14, 76.9% more than in 1Q13, reflecting the
substantial period increase in energy prices and sales volume, primarily as a result of the reallocation of Light
Energia’s captive market contracts terminated to the free market. First-quarter EBITDA margin stood at 6.0%, 0.3
p.p. lower than in 1Q13.
5 Revenue from construction was not considered in the calculation of the consolidated and distribution EBITDA margins, due to the booking of
revenues and costs with a zero margin.

3.4 Consolidated Financial Result
The 1Q14 financial result was a negative R$78.8 million, an improvement of 43.3% in relation to the negative
R$138.9 million recorded in the first quarter of 2013.
Financial revenue totaled R$97.0 million, 152.1% up from the same period in 2013. The main variation occoured in
the result of other financial revenues, whose increase was 323.2% due to the restatement of the New Repositioning
Value (VNR), recurring since the implemantation of the Law 12783/2013, totaling R$ 46.6 milion. Another significant
impact on financial revenues was in line income from financial investments, which increased by 400.5% due to the
Company’s higher cash position and the upturn in the benchmark interest rate (Selic).
First-quarter financial expenses came to R$175.8 million, flat in relation to the same period in 2013. In 1Q14, there
was a reduction of 91.0% in charges and the monetary variation of Braslight’s liabilities, due to the settlement of
debt in February 2014. The funds obtained for this settlement, combined with the rise in the benchmark interest rate
(Selic), increased expenditure on debt charges.

The Company closed 1Q14 with gross debt of R$6,049.9 million, 4.0%
more than at the end of December 2013, and 35.3% up from 1Q13 or
R$1.6 billion, due to period funding: (i) the disbursement of R$58.7
million from the BNDES, in the last 12 months, to Light SESA; (ii) Light
SESA’s 9th debenture issue, totaling R$1.6 billion, with Banco do Brasil
(June 2013), divided into two series, the first comprising R$1.0 billion at
the CDI (interbank rate) plus 1.15% and the second, of R$600 million, at
the variation in the IPCA (consumer price index) plus 5.74%; and (iii)
capital raising in foreign currency of R$235.8 million, through Citibank,
for Light SESA, hedged through a Real swap transaction
(February 2014). The funds were used for investments,
working capital and, especially, prepayment of more
expensive debts, including the settlement of the debt
with the Braslight pension fund, in February 2014, in the
amount of R$1,224.7 million, and the 5th debenture
issue, at a cost of the CDI plus 1.5%.
The Net debt/EBITDA ratio incresead from 2.84x in
December 2013 to 2.90x in March 2014. As a result, the
Company is still respecting its net debt/EBITDA covenant
limit of 3.0x. The Company also has a covenant for the
EBITDA/interest expense ratio, which
should be higher than 2.5x. The result for
this indicator in March was 3,5x. It is
worth noting that non-compliance with
this covenant only occurs if the limits
determined by the indicators are not
respected for two consecutive or four
alternate quarters.
The Company’s debt has an average term to maturity of 3.9 years, 0.2 down on 4Q13. The average cost of Real-
denominated debt was 9.6% p.a., in line with the end of December figure. The Company closed 1Q14 with 17.3% of
total debt denominated in foreign currency, but considering hedges against exchange exposure, only 0.5% of this
total was exposed to foreign currency risk, 0.1 p.p. above the figure recorded in December 2013. Light’s FX hedge
policy consists of protecting cash flow from foreign-currency-denominated debt falling due within the next 24

3.6 Net Income
Light posted net income of R$180.5 million in 1Q14, 129.5% up from the R$78.6 million recorded in the first quarter
of 2013. When adjusted by regulatory assets and liabilities (CVA), not recorded in the income statement, adjusted
net income came to R$168.5 million, 15.9% up from 1Q13.
The expressive growth in net income resulted from: (i) the volume of energy sold on the spot market; (ii) the 7.8%
increase in energy consumption in the distribution company’s concession area; and (iii) improved financial result.

3.7 Investments
Light invested R$175.6 million in 1Q14, 7.9% more than in 1Q13.
The distribution segment absorbed the major investments, R$158.3 million (representing 90.2% of the total), 24.7%
up from the first quarter of 2013. Of this total: (i) a significant portion was allocated to the development of
distribution and expansion networks, including the underground network, to keep pace with market growth,
strengthen the network and improve quality, (ii) R$48.9 million went to the energy loss project (network protection,
electronic meters and fraud regularization), and (iii) R$20.0 million went to specific investments related to the World
Cup and Olympic Games.
Commercialization and energy efficiency Investments declined from R$26.7 million in 1Q13 to R$10.5 million in
1Q14, due to large investments in early 2013 in the co-generation project for a large beverage company.

The first quarter of 2014 was marked by the following events related to projects for expanding Light’s generating
capacity:
Lajes SHP
• The basic project has already been approved by ANEEL. In June 2013, ANEEL altered the public service exploration
regime to independent energy producer. As a result, the SHP obtained a 50% reduction in TUSD and TUST fees. The
hiring of the construction company is in progress. Once the construction company is defined, it will be possible to
begin the works, with start-up scheduled for the first half of 2016, given that the project has already been granted an
installation license. The 17 MW turbine will be installed in the old powerhouse of the Fontes Velha power plant. In
addition to increasing generating capacity, the project also brings certain other benefits, such as increasing
operational flexibility, upgrading the supply of the CEDAE water main, controlling the Piraí River’s water level, and
improving the quality of the water in the Lajes Reservoir.
On January 24, 2014, the Board of Directors authorized the creation of SPE Lajes Energia S.A., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Light Energia S.A., for Lajes SHP’s implementation, construction, operation and maintenance.
Guanhães Energia
• Guanhães Energia S.A. is a special purpose entity (SPE) with the purpose of implanting four small hydroelectric
power plants (SHPs)—Dores de Guanhães, Senhora do Pôrto, Jacaré and Fortuna II, all of which in the state of Minas
Gerais, with a joint installed capacity of 44 MW. Guanhães Energia’s shareholders are Light Energia S.A. (51%) and
CEMIG Geração e Transmissão S.A. (49%).
SHPs Senhora do Pôrto and Dores de Guanhães are scheduled for start-up in the third quarter of 2014.
SHP Jacaré is scheduled for start-up in the fourth quarter of 2014, while SHP Fortuna II is scheduled for start-up in
the first quarter of 2015.
Belo Monte Hydroelectric Power Plant
• In October 2011, Amazônia Energia, owned by Light (25.5%) and Cemig (74.5%), acquired 9.77% of Norte Energia,
the consortium responsible for building and operating the Belo Monte Hydroelectric Power Plant. Located on the
Xingu River in the state of Pará, Belo Monte is the largest 100% Brazilian hydro plant and the fourth largest in the
world. It has an installed capacity of 11,233 MW and assured energy of 4,571 average MW. The first turbine is
scheduled for start-up in February 2015 and all 24 turbines are expected to be operational by January 2019.
At the Pimental site, the construction of the Left Side Dam, Spillway and Complementary Powerhouse are well under
way, which will enable the embankment of the Xingu River to form the plant’s main reservoir.
28
Renova Energia (“Renova”)
• In 2013, Renova announced the acquisition of 51% of Brasil PCH and the entry of Cemig GT into Renova’s
controlling block. Brasil PCH has 13 small hydroelectric power plants, with a joint installed capacity of 291 MW and
assured energy of 194 average MW. The acquisition is strategic for Renova, which added operational assets to its
base, thus improving the balance between operational assets and assets under construction and development.
In February 2014, Renova made the payment for the acquisition of 51% of Brasil PCH totaling R$739.9 million. The
amount remaining from the capital increase to be subscribed by Cemig GT or a specific purpose entity, in which
Cemig GT holds an interest of at least 50% and a private equity investment fund holds at most the other 50%,
totaling R$810.1 million, was transferred to Renovain March 2014 as advance for future capital increase by Cemig
GT. These amounts will be fully paid by July 29, 2014, date of expiration of the preemptive rights resulting from the
capital increase.
After the capital increase, a new shareholders’ agreement will be executed, through which Cemig GT or SPE, RR
Participações and Light Energia will become part of Renova’s controlling block.
Currently, Renova has a 60% interest in the specific purpose entity, Chipley SP Participações S.A., which owns 51%
of Brasil PCH.

As of 4Q13, the Management decided to present PIS and COFINS tax credits on purchased energy as a reduction
factor for purchased energy costs instead of presenting them as a reduction in PIS and COFINS on revenue and also
reviewed the criteria for the presentation of contractual debt amortization with the pension plan in the statement of
cash flows. The purpose of this reclassification was to align the presentation criterion with the best practices of
companies in the same sector.
The consolidated financial information for the first quarter of 2014 are in accordance with the new practice,
