Important Notice

This business combination involves the securities of a Brazilian company. The business combination is subject to disclosure requirements of Brazil that are different from those of the United States.

It may be difficult for you to enforce your rights and any claim you may have arising under the U.S. federal securities laws, since the issuer is located in Brazil, and some or all of its officers and directors may be residents of Brazil. You may not be able to sue a Brazilian company or its officers or directors in a Brazilian court for violations of the U.S. securities laws. It may be difficult to compel a Brazilian company and its affiliates to subject themselves to a U.S. court’s judgment.

You should be aware that the issuer may purchase securities otherwise than under the exchange offer, such as in open market or privately negotiated purchases.

This communication is not an offering document and does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or a solicitation of any vote or approval.

Investors in American Depositary Shares (“ADSs”) of Sadia S.A. (“Sadia”) and U.S. holders of preferred shares of Sadia are urged to read the U.S. informational document regarding the association between Sadia and Perdigão S.A. (“Perdigão” and, together with Sadia, the “Companies”), when it becomes available, because it will contain important information.

U.S. holders of common shares of Sadia are urged to read any informational document or other materials prepared by Perdigão for common shareholders of Sadia regarding the association because they will contain important information. Perdigão expects to submit copies of these documents to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) when they are available, and investors and security holders may obtain free copies of these documents and other documents filed by the Companies with the SEC at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. A copy of any informational documents prepared for holders of ADRs or U.S. holders of common or preferred shares of Sadia (when available) may also be obtained for free from Perdigão.
