Lights results at the end of 1H09 are the fruit of a combination of positive and negative effects, among which the most significant are: (i) those resulting from the operating performance (consumption and collection growth); (ii) those arising from major macroeconomic shifts (slower economic growth, dollar depreciation); (iii) those stemming from regulatory impacts (review of tariff and regulatory EBITDA last November); and (iv) those resulting from corporate decisions (cash position reduction due to the R$407.9 million dividend payment in April). Disregarding the non-recurring effects of 1H08 and 1H09, net income for 1H09, discussed below, would have been R$267.2 million and, therefore, 6.2% higher than the result of the same period of 2008. Collection in 2Q09 reached 103.4% of gross energy supply billing, showing strong recovery compared to 1Q09. During the last 12 months the collection rate was 97.4% of commercial billing, 0.8 p.p. above the index recorded in March. Cash generation this quarter before the dividend payment was R$192.9 million more than that of 2Q08. On July 14, 2009 the Company published the notice of commencement of its secondary public distribution of shares issued by Light S.A., whereby 29,470,480 shares were placed, of which 16,079,135 shares were held by BNDESPar and 13,391,345 shares were held by EDF. The total number of shares sold corresponds to 14.4% of the Companys capital stock. The offering price, determined in the bookbuilding process, was R$24.00, for a total of R$707.3 million. With this operation, the effective free float of shares has increased from 7.7% to 22.1% of the capital stock. IR Contacts

2 Light posted consolidated net income of R$121.4 million in 2Q09, compared to R$388.6 million in 2Q08, which had suffered the effects of a strong provision reversal in the period. Disregarding the recognition of tax credits this quarter, the Income Tax/Social Contribution effect resulting from the dollars depreciation on Light SESAs liabilities with the offshore company LIR in the periods, and the reversion of the provision for VAT taxes (PIS/COFINS) carried out in 2Q08, net income would have been R$93.4 million in this quarter, compared to R$142.8 million in 2Q08. Net income for the first half of 2009 was R$289.7 million. In the quarter, consolidated net revenue totaled R$1,273.3 million, 1.9% more than 2Q08. This decrease is mainly the effect of the non-recurring record of R$29.0 million related to the low-income subsidy in 2Q08. Disregarding this, revenue for the quarter is in line with 2Q08. In the first half of 2009, net revenue totaled R$2,710.0 million, a 3.7% increase year-on- year. Consolidated EBITDA for the quarter was R$220.6 million, 34.0% below 1Q08, mainly as a result of the reduction in the Companys regulatory EBITDA due to the tariff adjustment conducted in November 2008, which is to be expected in the first year of each tariff cycle, when scale gains are fully passed through to consumers, and also of the CCEEs re-recording this quarter of R$25 million in energy purchase referring to 1Q09. Accumulated EBITDA in 1H09 stood at R$570.1 million, 11.2% below 1H08. The Company closed the quarter with net debt of R$1,647.4 million, up 15.2% compared to the end of March of 2009. This growth is explained mainly by the decreased cash position due to the April dividend payment in the amount of R$407.9 million. Our Net debt/EBITDA leverage index was 1.2x at quarter's end. 1
1 To preserve comparability with the market approved by Aneel in the tariff adjustment process, the billed energy and demand of free customers Valesul, CSN and CSA were excluded, in view of these customers planned migration to the core network. In 2Q09, the energy consumption of these customers totaled 395 GWh and their demand was 2,294 GW, compared to a 722 GWh consumption and 2,919 GW demand in 2Q08.

3 Release Segmentation Light S.A. is a holding company with wholly-owned subsidiaries that participate in three business segments: electricity distribution (Light SESA), electricity generation (Light Energia) and electricity trading/services (Light Esco). To increase the transparency of its results and enable investors to make a better evaluation, Light also presents its results by business segment. 2 nd Quarter 2008 Results 2Q08 and 1Q08 results were adjusted to reflect the impacts of Law 11,638/07 on the respective results of the periods, pursuant to CVM Resolution 565/08, as well as the reclassification of employee profit sharing (PLR) after the income tax line, thereby no longer being classified as costs and personnel expenses. For further information, see Appendix V of this release.
Operating Performance Distribution Total energy consumption in Lights concession area (captive customers + billed free customers 2 ) in 2Q09 was 5,228 GWh, growing 0.3% when compared to the same period in 2008, chiefly due to the growth in captive market consumption. Total consumption in 1H09 was 10,786 GWh, a 0.9% increase year-on-year driven mainly by the significant growth in the residential and commercial markets due to the high temperatures of the first quarter. According to the Energetic Research Enterprise (EPE), this performance surpasses that of the Southeast Region, which decreased by 4.1% year-on-year. Taking into account the energy consumed by free consumers CSN, Valesul and CSA, consumption in this quarter was 5,623 GWh and 11,652 in 1H09.
2 To preserve comparability with the market approved by Aneel in the tariff adjustment process, the billed energy and demand of free customers Valesul, CSN and CSA were excluded, in view of these customers planned migration to the core network. In 2Q09, the energy consumption of these customers totaled 395 GWh and their demand was 2,294 GW, compared to a 722 GWh consumption and 2,919 GW demand in 2Q08.

4 Captive Customers Despite the economic crisis, billed consumption in the captive market grew 2.0% year-on-year, primarily a result of higher consumption in the residential and commercial classes - which together accounted for 72.3% of the captive market - as well as government consumption, included in "other. The increased consumption of these classes was influenced by the higher temperature this year - 0.5 C above the 2Q08 average - despite the lower number of billing days in the low voltage, 0.8 day. Consumption in the residential segment, which accounted for 40.3% of the captive market in the quarter, grew 2.2% over 2Q08. The number of residential customers rose 1.1% to 3.7 million billed customers with average monthly consumption of 170.0 kWh/month in this quarter, compared to 168.4 kWh/month in the same period of 2008. Commercial segment consumption, which represented 32.0% of the captive market this quarter, grew 1.7% year-on-year. The captive industrial segment, which represented only 9.9% of the captive market, was stable in relation to 2Q08 despite the effects of the economic slowdown on the industrys operations; heavy industry was the most impacted segment. This year, a customer from the chemical industry that consumed an average 10 GWh in 2008 returned from the free to the captive market. In 1H09, the captive markets billed consumption totaled 9,621 GWh, 2.9% more than in 1H08. This growth is primarily a result of the strong performance of the residential and commercial segments, which recorded billed consumption growth of 4.6% and 2.5%, respectively, compared to 1H08, representing a 250.5 GWh increase. This performance allowed the growth of captive market in the period, fully offsetting the 2.0%, or 18.5 GWh, decrease in industrial consumption that was an effect of the economic slowdown.

5 Network Use 3
Billed energy transported to free customers and concessionaires amounted to 1,144 GWh this quarter, 12.1% below 2Q08. This decline was caused by a 10.7% drop in free customer consumption-in particular in the steel industry, which was affected by the international economic crisis-in addition to the return to the captive market of a customer that represented a monthly average consumption of approximately 10 GWh in 2008 in 2Q09. The flow of energy supplied to the concessionaires bordering Lights area fell 13.7% between the periods. In 1H09, network use totaled 2,323 GWh, 10.5% below the energy transported in 1H08. The tariff breakdown of free customers is mainly driven by contracted demand; therefore a decline in the volume of transported energy does not significantly affect the revenue originating from these customers. Billed demand for free customers and concessionaries corresponded to 6,075 GW this quarter, unchanged in relation to 2Q08. Free customer demand this quarter decreased by 9.2% compared to the same period last year, mainly due to the fall in the contracted demand of a major customer from the steel industry. The 6.5% increase in demand from concessionaires offset the decrease in free customer demand. In 1H09, free customer and concessionaire demand totaled 12,217 GW, 2.7% above 1H08 billed demand. The amount presented in GW is related to the annual sum of billed demand each month, considering peak and out of peak periods.

7 Electric Energy Losses Lights total losses totaled 6,929 GWh, of 21.3% over the grid load, in the 12 months that ended in June of 2009, representing a 0.44 p.p. increase compared to the loss index in March of 2008. Non- technical losses reached 4,874 GWh, growing 0.33 p.p. over the grid load. The index was affected by a decline in consumption of large customers (who did not present non-technical losses), adversely impacting the grid load, which is the denominator of the index. It is also worth pointing out that the loss over grid load index suffers the effect of the grid load reduction. Conventional energy recovery processes, such as the negotiation of amounts owed by customers where fraud was detected, caused energy recovered in 1H09 to increase 51.4% over the same period in the previous year, totaling 75.7 GWh recovered, despite the 5.3% decrease in the number of customers normalized between the periods, suggesting that more significant frauds are being prioritized. Additionally, loss prevention programs generated an energy incorporation of 35.2 GWh in the first half of the year, a 139.5% increase over the 14.7 GWh incorporated in the same period last year. In June of 2009, Inmetro approved the electronic meter of one of Lights suppliers, whose technology allows centralized metering and remote management of reading, dis- and re-connection processes. This approval is a fundamental step in the progress of the program for loss- prevention based on new technologies. Inmetros delay in approving and the conditions required for the centralized metering system caused the initial plan to install 100,000 meters to be scaled back to 20,000. As part of the centralized metering system, the Company continues to invest in network modernization by protecting 175 km of the low voltage network in 1H09, with 850 more km to be protected by years end. In 2008, 120 km were replaced. Light believes that its continuous investment in new metering and network protection technologies will result in sustainable loss reduction.

8 Collection Collection in 2Q09 exceeded 100% of the total billed amount, reaching a rate of 103.4% partly due to the collection of debts from previous years and also to the payment of overdue invoices related to the beginning of this year. The retail segment, with collection levels above 100%, was fundamental to the recovery of this quarters global rate. In addition to retail, the segment of large customers including public agencies also showed high collection rates, reflecting the success of delinquency-prevention initiatives focused on both segments. The collection rate of the last 12 months, which encompasses the economic crisis that began in September 2008, was 97.4% of billing, 0.8% above the March index. The provision for past due accounts (PDD) constituted in 2Q09 was 3.5% of the gross billed energy or R$66.5 million, a decrease of 0.6 p.p. in relation to 2Q08. The effect of the economic crisis on 1Q09 collection impacted the 2Q09 PDD, since, according to the criteria for constituting a provision in the sector, provisions related to past due accounts from residential customers should be constituted 90 days after the due date. In the first six months of 2009, the PDD was R$18.7 million higher than the 1H08 provision, chiefly resulting from the impact of the crisis on retail collection, primarily in 1Q09. Operating Quality A series of major investments in increasing the reliability of the distribution system the Company began making in 2008 started to show effective results this quarter when quality indicators returned to pre-program levels even with the increase in the number of scheduled disconnections-necessary due to the investments made in the network. Thus, disregarding the effect of these disconnections, the equivalent length of interruptions (DEC) index in the first half of the year was 3.75 compared to 4.96 in 1H08, a 24.4% improvement. The equivalent frequency of interruptions (FEC) index fell from 3.29 in 1H08 to 2.69 in 1H09, an 18.24% drop.

9 Investments made since 2008 in important projects like the replacement of the conventional network with space cable (compressed MT network) and installation of remotely commanded keys to reduce interruption times, together with a reduction in planned disconnections, were instrumental to improving our indicators. These investments include improving electricity supply quality, increasing distribution network capacity and protecting the network, and amounted to R$60.7 million in 1H09, compared to R$43.9 million in 1H08. The electrical system maintenance plan began to be monitored by a specific SAP system module, providing better management and positively impacting the service continuity.
Generation Energy sold on the Regulated (ACR) and Free Contract (ACL) markets in 2Q09 was 1,013.6 GWh and 120.3 GWh, respectively. In the ACR, the volume of energy sold was 0.8% lower than in the same period in 2008, resulting mainly from the end of the contract for an 11.88 average MW product of the 2006/08 existing energy auction held in 2005, resold in the ACL, which resulted in a 24.2% increase over 2Q08. The lower volume of energy sold on the spot market in 2Q09 was mainly due to the decrease in secondary energy for sale on that market. In 1H09 a total of 2,425.5 GWh was sold, similar to 1H08 figures.
Trading and Services In the second quarter of 2009, Light Esco sold 139.7 GWh directly, an 18.5% increase in trading volume compared to 2Q08. This increase is explained by the greater availability of energy for resale at the trading company due to the expansion of its contract portfolio.

10 In addition to direct sales, Light Esco also continued to provide consulting services and represent free clients before the CCEE. These activities included operations of around 262.0 GWh and 8 clients. In 1H09, Light Esco traded 251.5 GWh, a 0.7% increase in relation to the same period of 2008. This result reflects the increase in traded energy in 2Q09 when compared to 2Q08, offsetting the smaller volume of energy traded in 1Q09. Currently, Light Esco has 55 energy sale customers, 47 of which use the companys trading services and 8 of which use its consulting and contract intermediation (brokerage) services. In June 2008, it had 44 customers. As to the service activity, Light Esco has been developing major projects for setting up service drops, substations, cold water centers and energy efficiency projects for customers such as TV Globo, Fiocruz, and the Academia Brasileira de Letras, among others.
Net Revenue Consolidated Net operating revenue totaled R$1,273.3 million in 2Q09, 1.9% lower than in 2Q08 primarily as a result of the record in 2Q08 of R$29.0 million referring to the low-income subsidy. Positive contributions to net revenue in the quarter were the increases of 9.8% in the generation segment revenue and of 15.1% in the energy trading operations revenue.
12 Distribution Net distribution revenue was R$1,203.5 million in the quarter, 2.5% below net revenue in 2Q08. This result was mainly impacted by the record of R$29.0 million in 2Q08 referring to the low-income subsidy. Disregarding this, revenue this quarter would be in line with that of the same period last year. Despite the growth of nearly 2.0% in captive market consumption, revenue was affected by the fall in energy and demand contracted by free and captive customers in function of the effect of the economic slowdown on their operations. Residential and commercial consumption accounted for 77% of captive market revenue. The distribution companys net revenue in 1H09 totaled R$2,573.3 million, up 4.2% year-on-year chiefly because of strong market growth in 1Q09. It is worth mentioning that, as the market approved by Aneel in the tariff adjustment process did not take into consideration the energy and demand of CSN, Valesul and CSA due to their planned migration to the core network, any variation in the market of these customers will have a neutral effect on the distribution companys total revenue. Given the lower than expected consumption of CSN and Valesul in 1H09, a regulatory asset was formed and distributed among other revenue lines that fully offsets this reduction.
Generation Net revenue in the quarter was R$73.4 million, 9.8% higher than in 2Q08. This increase was mainly due to the adjustment of energy sale contracts for inflation and the re-contracting of part of the energy from the ACR to the ACL for a higher price, offsetting the decrease in the volume sold on the spot market. In 1H09, net revenue was R$145.1 million, 4.9% lower than in 1H08 as a result of the lower secondary energy sales volume on the Free and Regulated Contract markets, which together recorded 1.3% decrease.
Trading and Services Net revenue in the quarter was R$19.1 million, up 15.1% over 2Q08. This increase is primarily the result of this quarters 18.5% rise in the volume of trading sales when compared to 2Q08.

13 In 1H09, net revenue decreased 20.5% in comparison to 1H08 chiefly due to the larger allocation of energy in the first quarter of 2008, whereas in 2009 this allocation was bigger in the second quarter. In addition to the effect of the allocated volume, this quarters revenue was also affected by the recorded CCEE average energy price (spot), which fell 64.9% year-on-year. Costs and Expenses
Consolidated
Consolidated Operating Costs and Expenses
In the second quarter of 2009, operating costs and expenses were 8.2% higher than in 2Q08, in particular due to the 13.0% increase in non-manageable distribution costs and expenses. Another factor that had an impact on costs and expenses this quarter was the R$10.1 million provision for the Stock Option Plan, which affected Light S.A.s personnel account; in 2Q08 the provision was concentrated in the 4 th quarter.
Distribution In 2Q09, costs and expenses of the energy distribution business grew 6.6% over 2Q08 as shown in the table below. The increase was caused by a 13.0% increase in non-manageable, pass-through costs and expenses in the tariff in spite of an 8.8% decline in manageable costs and expenses.
14 Non-Manageable Costs and Expenses In the second quarter of this year, non-manageable costs were R$816.0 million, representing a 13.0% growth year-on-year. Energy purchase costs rose 12.1% compared to 2Q08. It is important to point out that R$25 million related to energy purchase expenses referring to 1Q09 was recorded this quarter, due to CCEEs re-recording. Disregarding this amount, energy purchase costs would be 7.8% higher than the amount recorded in 2Q08 due to the increase in energy costs approved in the latest tariff adjustment. Expenses related to purchased energy rose 28.5%, chiefly as a result of : (i) the Itaipu dollar tariff adjustment by approximately 10% in January 2009, combined with the dollars 24.3% appreciation considering the average rates between the two quarters, (ii) TPP Norte Fluminense (Norte Flu) 26.2% average price increase reflecting the higher compensatory surcharge for gas (gas CVA) impacted by the dollars appreciation, (iii) the approximately 6.4% increase in auction contracts in Nov/08 affected by 6.0% inflation in the period (IPCA - Nov07 to Oct/08) and the introduction of new products in the 1 st and 2 nd thermal (T-15) and hydro (H-30) energy auctions, (iv) the 13% increase in charges, and (v) the energy purchase in the 2009 adjustment auction (Mar/09 to Dec/09), whose cost this quarter was R$145.7/MWh. The average purchased energy cost excluding spot purchases increased 21.5% from R$90.7/MWh in 2Q08 to R$110.2/MWh in 2Q09. Charges grew 43.2% in 2Q09 over 2Q08, chiefly due to thermoelectric plant dispatch in 2008 that resulted in increased System Service Charges (ESS) for distribution companies. In 1H09, non-manageable costs and expenses were R$1,690.8 million, increasing 11.8% year-on-year. Energy purchase costs rose 9.5% over 1H08 as the combined effect of approved increased energy purchase costs and the greater volume of purchases this year. Charges increased 24.1% between the periods.

15 Manageable Costs and Expenses Manageable operating costs and expenses (personnel, materials, outsourced services, provisions, depreciation and others) totaled R$276.6 million in 2Q09, an 8.8% drop between the periods. This result is explained mainly by lower provisions, which were 23.6% below 2Q08. Costs and expenses with staff, equipment, services and others (PMSO) amounted to R$121.7 million in the quarter, 3.2% above the R$117.9 million recorded in 2Q08. This result was chiefly due to a 5.7% or R$2.5 million increase in personnel costs and expenses, mainly due to a 5.6% pay raise granted in this years collective bargaining agreement. This quarters provisions (PDD, Provision for Contingencies and Others) fell R$26.3 million chiefly because of provisions constituted in 2Q08 for the low-income subsidy and an increase in Braslights actuarial liabilities in the amounts of R$17.2 million and R$23.9 million, respectively. We provisioned R$66.5 million for past due accounts in 2Q09, representing 3.5% of gross billed energy, versus R$47.4 million or 2.6% of gross billed energy in 2Q08, a reflection of the economic crisis that decreased retail customers ability to pay in the beginning of 2009. From January to June 2009, manageable operating costs and expenses totaled R$528.9 million, an 8.0% drop compared to the same period of 2008. Generation In 2Q09 Light Energias costs and expenses were R$31.6 million, 4.7% higher than in 2Q08, principally due to R$0.8 million increase in other expenses, a reflection of the higher royalties charged for use of water resources, the 4.3% increase in CUSD (distribution system use) costs, and the 11.3% rise (R$0.3 million) in expenses with materials and outsourced services. Expenses in 2Q09 were as follows: CUSD (use of the distribution system, 34.2%), personnel (15.5%), materials and third-party services (10.2%), others and depreciation (40.1%). In 2Q09, the PMSO cost per MWh was R$12.55/MWh, while in 2Q08 this cost was R$11.54/MWh. In 1H09, Light Energias costs and expenses were R$64.7 million, up 6.1% compared to 1H08 chiefly due to the 11.8% and 16.0% increases in CUSD and other expenses, respectively.

16 Trading and Services In 2Q09, costs and expenses totaled R$15.7 million, 54.5% more than in the same period in 2008. This increase was mainly because of the 38.5% increase in the energy purchase cost between the quarters due to the 14.3% increase in the purchased energy volume to fulfill the trading companys new contracts, in addition to the increase in the costs and expenses with materials as a result of expanded energy service projects. In 1H09, costs and expenses totaled R$30.9 million, an 11.2% decline compared to 1H08 that resulted mainly from the 47.1% decrease in energy purchase costs in 1Q09, a reflection of the reduction in the spot price amounts in relation to 1Q08.
EBITDA Consolidated Consolidated EBITDA dropped 34.0% year-on-year, totaling R$220.6 million in the second quarter of 2009. This result is mainly due to the reduction in the distribution companys EBITDA, a reflection of the November 2008 tariff review process combined with the effects of the crisis over the consumption that particularly affected the demand and consumption of customers from the industrial segment. The consolidated EBITDA margin fell 8.5 p.p. between the periods from 25.8% in 2Q08 to 17.3% this quarter.

17 In 1H09, EBITDA stood at R$570.1 million, down 11.2% compared to 1H08. The EBITDA margin for the six-month period was 21.0%. The share of the distribution segment EBITDA in the consolidated EBITDA was 83.3% in 1H09. The generation and trading segments were responsible for 15.6% and 1.1% of consolidated EBITDA, respectively.
Distribution The distribution companys EBITDA in 2Q09 totaled R$180.8 million, 36.3% below the same period last year. This result may be explained mainly by: (i) the reduction in the regulatory EBITDA resulting from the latest tariff review, approved in November of 2008 whereby the scale gains obtained during the first cycle (2003 to 2008) are fully passed through to consumers; (ii) the reduction in consumption and demand of free customers, which affected the revenue for the quarter, and (iii) the recording, in this quarter, of R$25 million in energy purchases referring to 1Q09 due to CCEEs re-recording. As a result, the EBITDA margin in 2Q09 was 15.0%, 7.9 p.p. lower than that of 2Q08. In 1H09, EBITDA was R$493.6 million, down 6.6% compared to 1H08, with a 19.2% margin. This reduction is chiefly the result of the lower market in the second quarter and the effect of the tariff review conducted in November 2008. Generation Light Energias EBITDA grew 11.4% year-on-year, totaling R$47.9 million in 2Q09. This increase is primarily a result of the 9.8% increase in net revenue due to the adjustment in the sale price that more than offset the 4.7% rise in expenses. The EBITDA margin this quarter was 65.2%, 1.0 p.p. higher than in 2Q08. In 1H09, EBITDA was R$92.6 million, contracting 11.2% compared to 1H08 as a result of the 4.9% decrease in net revenue, resulting from the decision to allocate a larger volume of energy to the EBITDA per segment * 1H09 Distribution 83.3% Generation 15.6% Commercializati on 1.1% *Does not consider eliminations Consolidated EBITDA- R$ MM 2Q09 2Q08 Var.% 1H09 1H08 Var.% Distribution 180.8 283.6 -36.3% 493.6 528.4 -6.6% Generation 47.9 43.0 11.4% 92.6 104.3 -11.2% Commercialization 3.5 6.6 -47.1% 6.4 12.1 -47.2% Others and eliminations (11.6) 1.1 - (22.5) (2.5) 797.1% Total 220.6 334.3 -34.0% 570.1 642.3 -11.2% EBITDA Margin (%) 17.3% 25.8% - 21.0% 24.6% -
18 second half, combined with the 6.1% increase in costs and expenses. The EBITDA margin in the first half of the year was 63.8%, down 4.5 p.p. compared to 1H08. Trading and Services EBITDA totaled R$3.5 million this quarter, a decline of 47.1% compared to the R$6.6 million registered in 2Q08. The reduction in the quarter can be explained by the decoupling of the cost of materials necessary to the energy service businesses and the corresponding revenue, as well as the 64.9% drop in the spot price, which negatively affected the trading operations short-term contracts. The EBITDA margin was 18.3% in the quarter, decreasing 21.5 p.p. year-on-year. In 1H09, EBITDA was R$6.4 million, 47.2% below that of 1H08 due to the 20.5% drop in net revenue as a result of both the lower volume traded and the year-on-year decrease in the spot price, despite the 11.2% decrease in costs and expenses. The EBITDA margin in 1H09 was 17.3%, 8.7 p.p. below the one recorded in 1H08.
19 Consolidated Financial Result The financial result in the quarter was a negative R$11.5 million, compared to a positive R$421.1 million in the second quarter of 2008, due to the non-recurring effect of the reversal of provisions referring to the expansion of the PIS/COFINS calculation base that had a positive impact of R$432.2 million on that quarter. Disregarding the effect of that provision reversal, the financial result was in line with that of the same period of 2008, as a combined result of the 58.8% decrease in financial revenues offset by the 52.4% decrease in financial expenses. Financial revenue in the quarter was R$39.3 million, 58.8% below the result recorded in 2Q08. This decline was mainly due to the monetary restatement of the recognition of PIS/COFINS credits on sector charges in 2Q08, affecting the other revenues line, as well as the decrease in interest on energy bills paid in arrears because of the 29.4% reduction in customer installments. The quarters financial expense of R$50.8 million was 52.4% lower than that of 2Q08, primarily due to: (i) the decreased monetary restatement of Braslights 4 liabilities as a result of a lower inflation rate, to which the balance of our debt is indexed. This quarters adjustment index was -0.62% compared to 3.74% in 2Q08; (ii) the smaller update of provisions for contingencies and tax liabilities, with a fall of approximately R$20 million year-on-year; and (iii) the present value adjustment of long-term receivables, in other financial expenses. In 1H09, the financial result was a negative R$36.3 million compared to a positive R$337.1 million in 1H08, once again impacted by the reversal of provisions referring to PIS/COFINS. Financial revenue in 1H09 was R$85.5 million, a result 42.8% lower than that recorded in 1H08, and financial expenses were R$121.8 million, a 50.2% drop compared to the financial expenses recorded in 1H08.

The Companys gross debt on June 30, 2009 was R$2,217.0 million, up 2.3% compared to the amount on March 31, 2009, as a result of new debt being contracted in the quarter. Compared to the position on June 30, 2008, the Companys gross debt rose 11.3%, corresponding to a variation of R$224.8 million. This growth is mainly the result of $317.0 million in new debt contracted in the last 12 months, whose primary purpose was to finance investment projects. The R$1,647.4 million net debt was 15.2% and 6.3% higher than in March 2009 and June 2008, respectively, because of the decrease in the cash position that was principally due to a R$407.9 million dividend payment in April 2009. The net debt/EBITDA ratio rose from 0.9x in March 2009 to 1.2x in June 2009. Our debt position continues to be comfortable, with an average term to maturity of 4.1 years and reduction of the average cost of dollar- denominated debt, which was 1.6 p.p. cheaper than in March 2009 and is now at 10.4% p.a. The average cost of foreign currency debt of US$+5.3% p.a. remained stable when compared to March 2009. At the end of June, only 5.1% of total debt was denominated in foreign currency.

Net income Light posted net income of R$121.4 million this quarter, down 68.8% compared to 2Q08. This result is due to the non-recurring record of the write-off of provisions related to the expansion of the PIS/COFINS calculation base in 2Q08, which had a positive effect of R$285.4 million on net income for that period, compared to the recognition of non-recurring tax credits, which had a positive impact of R$118.4 million this quarter, partially offset by the negative effect of the exchange rate variation on Light SESAs liabilities with the offshore company LIR, which increased income and social contribution taxes R$90.4 million this quarter and R$39.6 million in 2Q08. Disregarding the non-recurring effects of both quarters, net income for 2Q09 would be R$93.4 million, 34.6% lower than in 2Q08, as demonstrated in the graph on the right. Net income in the first half of 2009 was R$289.7 million, compared to the R$492.1 million recorded in 1H08. Disregarding the aforementioned non- recurring effects in both periods, net income in 1H09 would be R$267.2 million, 6.2% higher than in 1H08.

22 Capital Expenditures In 1Q09, the Company invested R$79.9 million in investment projects, including the development of distribution networks (new connections, capacity increases and repairs) and quality improvements (structural optimization and preventive maintenance), which absorbed R$52.8 million, and loss-prevention initiatives totaling R$19.1 million. In the generation segment, investments totaled R$4.3 million, chiefly allocated to maintenance of the existing generation complex. Investments in fixed assets totaled R$250.6 million in 1H09, which includes the financial charges originating from the Companys loans with financial institutions, the accounting effect of monetary restatement of use of public property from the Itaocara Plant, provided in the Plants concession agreement, and materials in inventory that have not yet been activated. Projects for Expansion of the Generation Capacity The second quarter of 2009 saw the following developments in the projects for expansion of Lights generation capacity: The EPC consortiums proposals for the construction of the Paracambi SHPP were received. These proposals were submitted to the Board of Directors, and the contracting of the winning consortium, comprised of the companies Orteng Equipamentos e Sistemas Ltda. and Construtora Quebec Ltda., was approved at the Board of Directors Meeting of August 7. The projects total cost is approximately R$195 million and construction is slated to begin in September, with commercial operations expected to begin in August of 2011. The Consortium with CEMIG for the construction of the Paracambi SHPP is being turned into an SPE (Special Purpose Entity), in view of the requirements of the Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES) to grant Project Finance loans for a project. Bids have been requested to choose the company that will build the supply system for the Lajes SHPP, and construction is expected to start at the beginning of September. In addition to these projects, the Company is considering participation in other generation projects, which together ensure the increase of installed generation capacity by at least 50%.
In 2Q09, Lights cash generation was a negative R$166.6 million, primarily as a result of the R$407.9 million dividend payment made in April. Cash generation before the dividend payment was R$241.2 million in the quarter, R$192.9 million more than that of 2Q08. This result is chiefly due to the increase in cash generated by operations, mainly explained by: (i) the decrease in taxes, which had a negative impact in 2Q08 due to the activation of PIS/COFINS credits related to charges, against the positive impact this quarter resulting from the higher provision for taxes (an effect of the dollars depreciation on Light SESAs debt with LIR); and (ii) the positive R$37.2 million working capital, mainly due to this quarters high collection index which exceeded the 100% mark. In financing activities, the negative result is due to the payment of dividends in April, whereas in 2Q08 no dividends were paid. The net result of financing obtained and debt service remained stable year-on- year. Net cash used in investing activities in the quarter was 13.8% below that of the same period of 2008. This decrease is explained mainly by the delayed investments in the loss-prevention program, which should be expedited over the year.
