Goldman Sachs & Co. and Goldman Sachs & Cia. (together, “Goldman Sachs”) have been engaged by Telesp Celular Participações S.A. (“TCP”), in accordance with Law No. 6404 of December 15, 1976 (the “Corporation Law”), as amended, to perform valuation analyses (the “Valuations”) with respect to each of TCP and each of Celular CRT Participações (“CRT”), Tele Sudeste Celular Participações S.A. (“TSD”), Tele Leste Celular Participações S.A. (“TBE”) and Tele Centro Oeste Celular Participações S.A. (“TCO”; together with CRT, TSD and TBE , the “Targets”; and together with TCP, the “Companies”), in connection with the merger of shares of TCO into TCP and the merger of each of the other Targets into TCP (collectively, the “Transactions”).

 

Our Valuations have been prepared for the exclusive use of TCP’s Board of Directors in connection with their analysis of the Transactions, as described further below, and should not be used for any other purposes, including, without limitation, to form the capital of TCP under the terms of the Corporation Law, including, but not limited to, its Article 8. Our Valuations have been prepared in both the Portuguese and English languages, and the Portuguese version shall prevail for all purposes.

 

In connection with preparing our valuation analyses, we have reviewed, among other things: (i) certain financial analyses and forecasts for each of the Companies prepared and approved by the senior management of each such Company; (ii) publicly available financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004 of each of the Companies, which were audited by Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu—Auditores Independentes (“ Auditors”); (iii) certain other financial information with respect to each of the Companies, including the cash and bank balances, loans and other debt obligations and hedging and contingencies provisions of each Company as of September 30, 2005, as set forth in letters from the Auditors dated December 4, 2005, addressed to each such Company and forwarded to us by the latter and reflecting the best judgment of the Auditors in conformity with generally accepted accounting procedures in Brazil. We also have held discussions with members of the senior management of each of the Companies with respect to their assessment of the past and current business operations, financial condition and prospects of such Companies. The Valuations also take into consideration the distribution of interest on net equity, as well as the payment of dividends as anticipated by the Companies’ Board of Directors.

 

In preparing our Valuations, we have assumed and relied, with the express consent of the Companies and without independent verification, on the accuracy, content, truthfulness, consistency, completeness, sufficiency and integrity of the financial, accounting, legal, tax and other information reviewed by or discussed with us, and we have not assumed, and do not hereby assume, any responsibility to independently verify any of the information or to make an independent verification or appraisal of any of the assets or liabilities (contingent or otherwise) of the Companies, nor have we examined the solvency or fair value of the Companies under any laws concerning bankruptcy, insolvency or similar matters. To this effect, we assume no responsibility or liability with respect to the accuracy, truthfulness, integrity, consistency, or sufficiency of such information, for which the respective Companies are solely and exclusively responsible. In addition, we have not assumed any obligation to conduct, and have not conducted, any physical inspection of the properties or facilities of the Companies. With your consent, we have assumed that the financial analyses and forecasts prepared by the senior management of each Company, as approved by the Management of such Company, have been reasonably prepared on a basis reflecting the best currently available estimates and judgments of such Company.

(Continued)

 

You have asked us to prepare our Valuations in connection with the requirement under Article 30 of TCP’s By-laws that TCP obtain a determination with respect to the “equitable treatment” of each of the exchange ratios for the proposed Transactions. Our analysis has been prepared on the basis that, if the Board of Directors of TCP proposed an exchange ratio with respect to each Transaction that falls within the range of exchange ratios implied by the ranges of value indications derived from our Valuations with respect to TCP and the relevant Target involved in such Transaction, applied on a consistent basis, then that exchange ratio would constitute “equitable treatment”. Our Valuations have been prepared solely based on the discounted cash flow methodology assuming a stable macroeconomic scenario for Brazil. The valuation analyses and the results therefrom do not purport to reflect the prices at which any of the Companies or its securities could be sold, nor do they take into account any element of value that may arise from the accomplishment or expectation of the proposed Transactions. You should further note that we are not an accounting firm and we did not provide accounting or audit services in connection with this Valuation Report. In addition, because these valuation analyses are based upon forecasts of future financial results, they are not necessarily indicative of actual future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than those suggested by such analyses. Given, further, that these analyses are intrinsically subject to uncertainties and various events or factors outside the control of the Companies and Goldman Sachs, neither Goldman Sachs, nor any of its affiliates and representatives, assume any responsibility or liability if future results differ substantially from the projections presented in the Valuations and make no representation or warranty with respect to such projections.

 

Our Valuations are necessarily based on economic, monetary, market and other conditions as in effect on, and the information made available to us as of, the date hereof. As a result, the valuation analyses are valid exclusively as of the date hereof as future events and developments may affect their conclusions. We do not assume any obligation to update, review, revise or revoke the Valuations as a result of any subsequent event or development. With respect to the Valuations, TCP and its Board of Directors have not authorized us to solicit, nor have we solicited any indication of interest from third parties to acquire, in whole or in part, any Company’s shares. As a result, the results determined in the Valuations do not necessarily correspond to, and should not be construed as representative of, the prices at which any Company could be sold in a third-party acquisition transaction, at which any Company’s respective shares trade on the date hereof or will trade at any future time, or at which the shares of TCP will trade after the Transactions.

 

The preparation of economic and financial analyses such as those conducted in the preparation of the Valuations is a complex process that involves subjective judgment and is not susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. In arriving at its conclusions, Goldman Sachs did not attribute any particular weight to any particular factor considered by it; rather, Goldman Sachs made qualitative judgments as to the importance and relevance of all the factors considered therein. Accordingly, Goldman Sachs believes that the Valuations should be considered as a whole and that selecting portions of its analyses or the factors considered therein could result in an incomplete and incorrect understanding of the conclusions of the Valuations. The results presented herein refer solely to the Transactions and do not extend to any other present or future matters or transactions regarding the Companies, the economic group to which they belong or to the sector in which they operate.

 

The Valuations are exclusively addressed to TCP’s Board of Directors and do not address the underlying business decision by TCP to engage in the Transactions and do not constitute a recommendation to any of the Companies and/or the holders of the respective Companies’ shares (including, but not limited to, as to whether any such holder should vote in favor of the Transactions or exercise any appraisal rights or other rights with respect thereto). In addition, the Valuations (i) treat the Companies as stand-alone operations and therefore, the analyses and results of the Valuations do not include any operational, tax or other benefits or losses, or synergies, incremental value and/or costs for the Companies, if any, which may arise from the consummation of the Transactions and (ii) do not address the treatment of the different classes of shares of the Companies, and any adjustments intended to offset, or that may reflect, any specific rights associated with any specific class of shares of the Companies. We are therefore not expressing, and the Valuations do not contain, any views relating to the distribution of economic value among the various classes of shares of any of the Companies.

Goldman, Sachs & Co. and its affiliates, as part of their investment banking business, are continually engaged in performing financial analyses with respect to businesses and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, competitive biddings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements and other transactions as well as for estate, corporate and other purposes. We have been engaged by TCP and, irrespective of whether the Transactions are consummated, we will receive a fee for the services provided by us. Moreover, TCP has agreed to reimburse our expenses and indemnify us for certain liabilities that may arise as a result of our engagement. In addition, we have provided certain investment banking services to the Company from time to time, including having acted as the Company’s financial advisors in connection with its rights offerings of 2002 and 2004 and in the voluntary tender offer for the acquisition of TCO shares in 2004. We also have provided and currently are providing certain investment banking services to Telefónica, S.A., one of the indirect controlling shareholders in TCP, including, in its cash offer to acquire the entire issued and to be issued share capital of O2 plc. We also may provide investment banking services to each of the Companies and their affiliates in the future. In connection with the above-described services we have received, and may receive, compensation.

 

Goldman, Sachs & Co. is a full service securities firm engaged, either directly or through its affiliates, in securities trading, investment management, financial planning and benefits counseling, risk management, hedging, financing and brokerage activities for both companies and individuals. In the ordinary course of these activities, Goldman, Sachs & Co. and its affiliates may provide such services to each of the Companies and their respective affiliates, may actively trade the debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) of the each of the Companies and their respective affiliates for their own account and for the accounts of their customers and may at any time hold long and short positions of such securities.

 

In preparing the Valuations, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, we did not take into account (i) the tax consequences of the Transactions for the holders of the Companies’ shares, and (ii) the impact of any fees and expenses that may result from the consummation of the Transactions, including, but not limited to, those related to any depositary services that may be charged to the holders of the Companies’ ADSs. In addition, pursuant to applicable laws and regulations, we have excluded the tax-related effects associated with the future use by TCP of the non-amortized premium arising from the purchase by TCP of shares of the Targets. The financial calculations contained in the Valuations may not always result in a precise sum due to rounding.

 

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and based upon other matters as we considered relevant, if the exchange ratio approved by TCP’s Board of Directors with respect to each Transaction is within the implied exchange ratios derived from the Valuations with respect to TCP and the relevant Target involved in such Transaction, it is our view that such exchange ratio as of the date hereof would constitute equitable treatment as understood in the manner described above.

LOGO    Valuation Analyses – Methodology

 

    Valuation analyses were performed as of September 30, 2005 based on a projection period from 2005 to 2014. All projections used for purposes of the valuations of each of the Companies were prepared by the senior management of that company

 

    Unlevered free cash flows (before financing costs) were projected by the Companies in Reais and subsequently converted to US Dollars at the average projected exchange rate for each year

 

    Illustrative enterprise values of each of the Companies were determined by the sum of:

 

    Net present value indications calculated as of September 30, 2005 with respect to the unlevered free cash flows for the projection period, and

 

    Net present value indications calculated as of September 30, 2005 with respect to the illustrative terminal value, determined using the perpetuity growth methodology applied to a normalized unlevered free cash flow (capex equal to depreciation and excluding temporary tax benefits)

 

    The valuation analyses prepared for Telesp Celular Participações S.A. (TCP) included the following components: (i) projected free cash flows for its wholly owned subsidiaries, Telesp Celular S.A. and Global Telecom S.A.; (ii) adjustments to reflect the net present value of TCP’s expenses, and (iii) value indication of TCP’s equity interest in TCO, calculated using the Discounted Cash Flow methodology

 

    The illustrative present values of the unlevered free cash flows were calculated using a weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”) between 11.25% and 12.75%. The perpetuity growth rate for the unlevered free cash flow was between 3% and 5%

Table of Contents
LOGO    Valuation Analyses – Methodology

 

    The equity value indications calculated for each of the Companies were determined by subtracting from the illustrative enterprise value previously calculated the total value of (i) the net debt and contingencies, as set forth in the audited balance sheets as of September 30, 2005, and (ii) the interest on capital and dividends already declared, both converted to US dollars at such date

 

    The indicative equity values indications per share for each of the Companies were determined by dividing the equity value indications by the total number of shares outstanding

 

    Values were adjusted to reflect treasury shares (reduces the number of shares used to determine the equity value indications per share)

 

    The valuation analyses result in aggregate equity value indications for each of the Companies and do not allocate value between any classes of shares. No adjustments were made as to potential benefits that may arise from the transaction, such as synergies or tax gains

 

    The illustrative ranges of exchange ratios calculated for the Companies were determined by the consistent comparison of the illustrative equity value indications per share calculated for each of them
