- The CONTRACTED PARTIES supplied, on July 16, 2004, based on the CONSOLIDATED RFP, a Proposal for the execution of services, for a fixed lump sum, subject to item 7.5 (“PROPOSAL)

3

- as provided by the Supply and Rendering of Services Agreement signed on July 10, 2004, hereinafter referred to simply as “CORE Supply Agreement”, the CONTRACTED PARTIES were hired by the CONTRACTING PARTY, together with Amazônia Celular S.A., a company that is part of the same economic group to which the CONTRACTING PARTY belongs, to supply on a “turnkey lump sum” basis all the new equipment, computer programs, services and new material that make up the CORE of the GSM System (“CORE”), as shown in detail in the CONSOLIDATED RFP (Attachment I);

- The CONTRACTED PARTIES agree and acknowledge that the suppliance that is the subject-matter of this AGREEMENT and the suppliance that is the subject of the CORE Supply Agreement are an integral part of the overall suppliance of a Telecommunications Network by the CONTRACTED PARTIES to the CONTRACTING PARTY, as detailed in the CONSOLIDATED RFP (Attachment I) and that, consequently, timely and correct fulfillment of all the obligations of the CONTRACTED PARTIES pursuant to each of the aforementioned agreements fundamental for the overall suppliance of the aforementioned Telecommunications Network, neither PARTY being excused, under any circumstances, from performing its obligations as described in the other agreements;

4.1 The CONTRACTING PARTY may determine, in writing, changes affecting the basic assumptions supplied. Should the CONTRACTED PARTIES find out that the project changes determined by the CONTRACTING PARTY shall increase the AGREEMENT’s lump sum Value, or adversely affect the capacity of the CONTRACTED PARTIES to meet scheduled deadlines, the PARTIES shall negotiate, in good faith, an adjustment of the AGREEMENT’s lump sum and/or of the scheduled deadlines, so as to reflect the changes fairly. Possible changes in scheduled deadlines shall only be negotiated in connection with possible increases.

4.1.1 The PARTIES hereby agree that, should changes occur to Basic Assumptions resulting in an increase or reduction of up to twenty-two percent (22%) in the number of Sites and/or Capacity, as determined in Attachment III, regarding the number of Sites and Capacity stipulated by the

5

CONTRACTED PARTIES in the Executive Project, the average prices per Site (which include infrastructure, hardware, software, features, connected services, etc.) and that make up the Agreement’s Lump sum submitted as part of the PROPOSAL (Attachment II) shall be maintained.

4.1.2 Should the Basic Assumption suffer any changes representing a reduction in the number of Sites, the CONTRACTING PARTY shall communicate said reduction to the CONTRACTED PARTIES within, at most, three (3) weeks as from the date on which the agreement is signed.

4.2. The CONTRACTED PARTIES may suggest changes regarding the Basic Assumptions that were supplied by the CONTRACTING PARTY, provided that these: (i) do not adversely affect the minimum conditions established in the CONSOLIDATED RFP; (ii) do not reduce ACCESS reliability, capacity, performance, quality and useful life; (iii) neither increase the value of the AGREEMENT nor generate any additional costs for the CONTRACTING PARTY; (iv) do not cause the key dates described in the time schedule to be delayed; (v) do not impair the Guarantees obtained and/or Insurance Policies taken out; and (vi) do not affect the CONTRACTING PARTY’s Payment Schedule. The suggested changes may only be implemented once they have been discussed with and authorized by the CONTRACTING PARTY.

5.1 In the execution and interpretation of this AGREEMENT, all the regulations that govern the Personal Mobile Service, whether they be laws, decrees, administrative acts, instructions, or resolutions, among others, shall be taken into account, complied with and applied by the CONTRACTED PARTIES, regardless of whether or not any reference is made to them herein and/or in the documents attached to this AGREEMENT.

5.2 Without prejudice to compliance with and fulfillment of the other rules issued by the National Telecommunications Agency – ANATEL (Agência Nacional de Telecomunicações), any unit of certified products that may come to be supplied by the CONTRACTED PARTIES to the CONTRACTING PARTY shall carry an identification plate in a visible spot, with the name of the manufacturer and the address of the supplier in this country. All certified products that use radioelectric frequency, in addition to the above requirement, shall bear the following message: “This product can only go into operation once its operating license, issued by the appropriate technical body of the Ministry of Communications, has been obtained.”

CLAUSE 6 – DOCUMENTS INCLUDED

6.1 For all legal purposes and effects, this AGREEMENT comprises the documents listed below, as if they were transcribed herein. These documents hereinafter shall be referred to as Included Documents.

6

6.2 Should there be any discrepancy between this AGREEMENT and the documents that it comprises, the following order of prevalence shall apply, its being hereby established that the requirements of the CONSOLIDATED RFP explicitly mentioned in the PROPOSAL as not having been fulfilled or having been carried out differently from the specifications described in the CONSOLIDATED RFP shall prevail over the CONSOLIDATED RFP.

7.1 The system for executing the job that is the subject-matter of this AGREEMENT is the “turn-key lump sum” system.

7.2 The lump sum for supplying and implementing ACCESS shall be the sum of: (i) fifty-three million seven hundred and eighty-five thousand and forty-two reais and seventy-five centavos (R$53,785,042.75), which amount shall be fixed and not adjustable, referring to local materials, equipment and services, and of: (ii) five million, six hundred and fifty-one thousand and seventy-three reais and eighty centavos (R$5,651,073.80), which amount refers to equipment, materials and software to be imported from abroad, worth, in foreign currency, on the date on which this agreement was signed, one million eight hundred and twenty-one thousand seven hundred and fifty-one U.S. dollars and seventy-one cents (US$ 1,821,751.71) .

7.2.1 The price of the equipment, materials and software programs that shall be imported, as provided for under item 7.2 above, shall be adjusted in the case of fluctuation between the US dollar

7

exchange rate and the day preceding invoicing, as published in SISBACEN PTAX 800 Option 5, exceeds five per cent (5%). For the purposes of measuring this fluctuation, the U.S. dollar exchange rate to be taken into account is three point one zero two zero reais to the dollar (R$3.1020/USD) .

7.2.2 The price stated above includes, in addition to the CONTRACTED PARTIES’ profit, all direct costs (materials, labor, administration, social charges, labor charges and taxes, among others) and indirect costs (charges, insurance, taxes, customs duties and expenses, operational transport expenses, the transport of materials, products and people and their respective insurance, packaging, bed and board, air fares, bus fares, local travel, equipment, tools, and consumable goods, among others) incurred or to be incurred by the CONTRACTED PARTIES in order to supply and implement ACCESS, its being inadmissible, under any circumstances and regardless of the reason, that any additional amounts be charged by the CONTRACTED PARTIES, given that they are being hired for a lump sum.

7.2.3 The PARTIES acknowledge that the direct or indirect costs described above may undergo some fluctuation after this AGREEMENT has been signed and while it is being performed, due to foreseeable events such as inflation, fluctuation of the price of raw materials, the need to substitute materials or use of alternative means of production, project adjustments (provided that no changes are made to the Basic Assumptions supplied by the CONTRACTING PARTY), or changes in taxation, among others, the CONTRACTED PARTIES undertaking to bear the risk for these fluctuations and the ensuing added costs, this being an essential prerequisite for this AGREEMENT to be entered into. So that no doubts may arise as to the foreseeability of certain events, the following are hereby classified as foreseeable, in addition to the aforementioned items:

(i) strikes of the CONTRACTED PARTIES’ personnel or of companies subcontracted by them;

(ii) acts of God and meteorological phenomena typical of the time or place where the services are being rendered, such as landslides, storms, and flooding, among others;

(iii) delays in the obtainment of licenses or permits of any nature that may be required for executing the services; and

(iv) delays in the importation of equipment and customs clearance.

7.3 The proposed lump sum price takes into account all of the activities (direct, indirect, accessory, alternative, and complementary, among others) required to supply and implement ACCESS, pursuant to the CONSOLIDATED RFP and the PROPOSAL, regardless of whether these activities are expressly listed herein. Only if the CONTRACTING PARTY requests, in writing, changes to the Basic Assumptions, as per clause 4, or in the case of new contractual agreements, shall the CONTRACTED PARTIES be entitled to the respective adjustment of prices and deadlines.

7.4 In the case of new contractual agreements related to the scope established in the CONSOLIDATED RFP (Attachment I), the parties shall comply with the pricing listed on the List of

8

Unit Prices (“LUP”) (Attachment IV), as well as with the same commercial terms agreed upon herein. The CONTRACTED PARTIES guarantee that, for a four (4) year period of time as from the signing of this AGREEMENT, the prices listed in the LUP shall be maintained as the maximum pricing values to be charged from the CONTRACTING PARTY for supplying new goods and services, excluding the rights to adjustment described in the items below. Should the CONTRACTED PARTIES refuse to comply with the maximum amounts agreed upon, the CONTRACTING PARTY shall be entitled to judicially request from the CONTRACTED PARTIES payment equal to twice the amount expended in excess, this AGREEMENT serving, together with the invoice, as the extrajudicial document valid for commencing an execution process.

7.5 The base date for the unit prices shown on the LUP is the date on which this AGREEMENT shall be signed.

7.5.1 The relative price of the materials, equipment (HWL) and domestic services (SERVL) and a portion equal to forty per cent (40%) of the materials and equipment that have imported raw materials or input (HWL/I), expressed in the LUP in domestic currency (R$), for the purposes of the provisions described in item 7.4 above, shall be adjusted after one-year periods, the adjusted amount being valid for the one-year period subsequent to adjustment, by applying the following formula:

I = 0.90 X(I₁- I₀) / I₀

Where:

I= Sought adjustment index.

I₀= Initial index concerning the cost index corresponding to the date on which this AGREEMENT shall be signed.

I₁= Same index concerning the month immediately prior to the foreseen adjustment month, i.e., the 12^th, 24^th, and 36^th months after the month on which this AGREEMENT shall be signed, and so forth.

(i) The adjustment established in this item shall only apply to payments of amounts that concern new purchases made as from the first day immediately following the end of the twelfth (12^th) month after the signing of this AGREEMENT.

(ii) The index to be adopted shall be the Economic Index / IGP- DI (General Price Index - Internal Availability), column 2, published by the Conjuntura Econômica magazine of Fundação Getúlio Vargas or, in its absence, any similar index that may come to replace it.

(iii) The coefficient calculated through the adjustment formula shall be worked out up to the third decimal, the other ones being disregarded.

9

(iv) Should the law come to allow a reduction in the frequency of adjustment, the PARTIES may negotiate a new adjustment period, to be considered for the purposes of this AGREEMENT.

7.5.2 The price in reais of the materials, equipment, and software expressed in the LUP in foreign currency (U.S. dollars – USD), for the purposes of what has been described in item 7.4 above, shall be calculated using the USD exchange rate of three point zero two zero reais per dollar (R$3.1020/USD); this shall be adjusted when the difference between the USD exchange rate and the rate on the day immediately preceding invoicing, as published by SISBACEN PTAX 800 Option 5, is greater than five per cent (5%).

7.5.3 The price in reais of the portion equal to sixty per cent (60%) of the national equipment and materials that contain some imported raw materials or input (HWIJI), for the purposes of what has been described in item 7.4 above, shall be adjusted for new purchases only when the difference between the USD exchange rate and the rate on the day immediately preceding actual purchase, as published by SISBACEN PTAX 800 Option 5, is greater than five per cent (5%). For the purpose of assessing this difference, the USD exchange rate to be taken into account is three point zero two zero reais per dollar (R$ 3.1020/USD);

7.6 The total value of this AGREEMENT, for the purpose of what has been described in Clauses 17 and 18, shall be equal to the sum of the amounts in reais calculated in item 7.2 (i) and (ii).

8.1 Payments shall only be made once the CONTRACTING PARTY has accepted that the events to which they refer have indeed occurred, according to the following Timetable and subsequent items:

10

8.1.1 The CONTRACTED PARTIES shall undertake to supply a table with the prorated value per Site, to be paid in connection with events 1 and 2 mentioned in item 8.1 above. This table shall be submitted to the CONTRACTING PARTY for approval immediately after this AGREEMENT has been signed.

8.1.2. The parties agree that payment of the advance described as Event 0 of item 8.1 is subject to submission by the CONTRACTED PARTIES of a Bank Letter of Guarantee, the value of which shall be equal to twenty per cent (20%) of the total value of this AGREEMENT, as per item 7.6, to be issued by a first-tier financial institution, which shall be required to waive the benefits granted under articles 827, 835 and 838 of the Brazilian Civil Code. The said Bank Letter of Guarantee shall be valid up to the time when Event 1 of item 8.1 has been discharged.

8.2 The payments shall be made in accordance with the payment timetable above either on the sixtieth (60^th) day following acceptance of the corresponding physical event or on the thirtieth (30^th) day following submission to the CONTRACTING PARTY of the invoice, in two (02) copies of like tenor, the latest of the two dates being the prevailing payment date, subject to the provisions of Clause 9.

8.3 The payments shall be subject to discharging all obligations undertaken and/or resulting from this AGREEMENT, the CONTRACTING PARTY being required to deposit the amount owed directly into the bank accounts indicated by the CONTRACTED PARTIES, the respective payment slips being valid as payment receipts.

8.4. One of the conditions for payment (except for event 0 – anticipation of payment, shown in item 8.1) is the obtainment by the CONTRACTED PARTIES of a firm, long-term financing offer, signed by a first-tier, domestic or international, public or private, multilateral or financial institution, or from export credit agencies (hereinafter referred to simply as BANK). This firm finance offer shall include the term of the loan, the interest rate, commissions and covenants in keeping with normal market

11

standards, the conditions of which, at the very least, must be equal to those presented by the CONTRACTED PARTIES in letter CE/EDB/ETT 04:066 issued on July 16, 2004, and guarantees that the CONTRACTING PARTY is able to provide, in the light of its preceding commitments to third parties, and/or resulting from statutory limitations. If, at the time of the payment(s) owed to the CONTRACTED PARTIES pursuant to this clause, the CONTRACTING PARTY and the BANK have not signed the financing agreement on an unconditional, irrevocable and irreversible basis under the terms of the firm offer of financing signed by the financial institution, due to a fact or action imputable solely to the CONTRACTING PARTY, the latter shall continue to make the payments owed to the CONTRACTED PARTIES, in accordance with the payment timetable stipulated herein.

8.5 Payments shall be made on working Mondays, Wednesdays or Fridays. Payments falling due on other days of the week shall be paid on the immediately subsequent working Monday, Wednesday or Friday, as appropriate, at no extra cost to the CONTRACTING PARTY.

8.6 The CONTRACTED PARTIES shall, when issuing receipts or invoices, ensure these documents are correctly filled in. They shall mandatorily include the number of the AGREEMENT, the identification of the portion to be paid, the rates of applicable taxes and their respective amounts, a detailed list of the materials and equipment supplied and the registration code(s) for the equipment at BNDES/FINAME, as applicable.

8.7 The CONTRACTING PARTY, should there be any credits in its favor resulting from fines or damages caused by the CONTRACTED PARTIES in connection with this AGREEMENT, may at its discretion deduct these amounts from the payments disbursed to the CONTRACTED PARTIES, as of the issuance of the Statement of Partial Acceptance and/or of the Statement of Final Acceptance, as appropriate, subject to prior notice in writing to the CONTRACTED PARTIES.

8.8 The CONTRACTED PARTIES reserve themselves the right to suspend activities resulting from this AGREEMENT thirty (30) days after the CONTRACTING PARTY receives an extrajudicial or judicial notice from the former, in the case of unjustified delays in payment in excess of thirty (30) days. This hypothesis does not apply neither to the cases mentioned in items 8.4 and 8.7 above, nor to those cases described in this AGREEMENT where failure of the CONTRACTING PARTY to pay is expressly authorized and justified.

8.9 Concerning past-due payments, where the AGREEMENT or the law lack provisions justifying non-payment, the CONTRACTED PARTIES shall have the right to charge interest on overdue payment from the CONTRACTING PARTY, at the rate of one per cent (1%) per month, plus monetary indexation based on the IGP-DI general price index up to the date on which payment actually occurs, other than in those cases stipulated herein that expressly eliminate the incidence of monetary indexation.

8.10 The CONTRACTED PARTIES may neither assign nor pledge to third parties the amounts to which they are entitled under this AGREEMENT without prior authorization to do so from the

12

CLAUSE 9 – TAXES AND SOCIAL SECURITY CONTRIBUTIONS

9.1 Regarding the National Social Security Institute – INSS, the CONTRACTING PARTY shall comply with Law 9.711/98 and regulatory instruction 100/2003, as well as with the amendments introduced by IN105/2004. It is mandatory to specify the Social Security payments, as well as to inform the INSS Specific Registration number (CEI – Cadastro Específico do INSS) and the address of the location in the invoice or receipt for services rendered under the responsibility of the CONTRACTED PARTIES.

9.2 All taxes must also be broken out in each invoice submitted, together with an indication of the tax rate applied or inclusion of the exemption text, as determined by current laws. The amounts concerning supplies of materials and/or of equipment of their own or of third parties, indispensable for the CONTRACTED PARTIES to carry out their services shall be indicated in each invoice submitted, under penalty of taxes due being withheld for the full amount of the fiscal document.

9.3 Responsibility for opening and discharging CEI registration lies with the CONTRACTING PARTY. However, the CONTRACTED PARTIES shall be responsible for preparing, organizing and submitting to the CONTRACTING PARTY all the documentation required by the INSS for clearance of work sites where social security is concerned, including of subcontracted parties, in accordance with the directives of the CEI manual that is part of this AGREEMENT.

9.3.1 The documents to be presented shall either be the original ones or authenticated copies thereof, collated and organized in the form of a DATA BOOK, by CEI registration number, to be submitted within fifteen (15) days, at most, of the completion of the work at a given site.

9.3.2 Should the CONTRACTED PARTIES fail to submit the aforementioned documentation by the established deadline, the CONTRACTING PARTY shall hereby be authorized to withhold fifty per cent (50%) of the value of the subsequent payment due according to the agreement, regardless of any warning or notices, which percentage shall only be released by the CONTRACTING PARTY once the requested documents have been properly submitted.

9.3.3 The last payment stipulated herein shall only be made after the CONTRACTED PARTIES submit to the CONTRACTING PARTY all the documentation necessary for normal discharging of CEI registration numbers at the INSS.

9.3.4 Should the CONTRACTED PARTIES use the same insured parties to service several contracting companies, alternately, during the same time period, they shall be exempt, pursuant to article 171 and the sole paragraph of INSS Regulatory Instruction no. 100/03, from preparing separate Payroll and Payment Forms for the Severance Indemnity Fund for Employees and Information for Social Security (GFIP – Guia de Recolhimento do Fundo de Garantia por Tempo de Serviço e Informações à Previdência Social), provided that this situation is duly demonstrated, the

13

CONTRACTED PARTIES being the only ones responsible for said information.

9.3.5 Should application of the provisions described in item 9.3.4 above come to be questioned by INSS inspections, making it impossible for the CONTRACTING PARTY to discharge CEI registration, the CONTRACTED PARTIES shall be entirely responsible for any costs or damages ensuing from this situation, including the payment of possible fines that said inspection might levy from the CONTRACTING PARTY.

9.4 Regarding the Tax on Services of Any Nature (ISSQN – Imposto Sobre Serviços de Qualquer Natureza), the CONTRACTING PARTY shall comply with the municipal laws of the places where the services are actually rendered, regardless of what is stated in the laws of the municipality in which the service provider is headquartered.

9.5 The CONTRACTING PARTY, when it is the withholding party, shall pay the taxes mandated by the laws currently in force and is hereby authorized to discount these amounts from the amounts it shall owe the CONTRACTED PARTIES by force of this AGREEMENT.

9.6 For any new contractual arrangements, pursuant to item 7.4 above, the PARTIES agree to review the prices listed in the LUP should any taxes be created, changed or eliminated, after this AGREEMENT has been signed, provided that this is shown to affect the prices agreed to herein and set out in the LUP.

9.7 Not withstanding the payment terms agreed to in their specific clause, all fiscal documents concerning services rendered by the CONTRACTED PARTIES shall be issued and delivered to the facilities of the CONTRACTING PARTY by the twentieth (20^th) day of the month in which the respective invoice or receipt is issued, so as to allow the CONTRACTING PARTY to pay the appropriate taxes within the timeframe established by law.

10.1 The PARTIES agree that the deadline for ACCESS supply and implementation is three hundred and ninety (390) days, as of the date on which this AGREEMENT is signed, in compliance with the terms of the Implementation Schedule that is part of the PROPOSAL (Attachment II) and the hypotheses of survival of the clauses expressly described in this AGREEMENT.

10.2 The deadlines stipulated in this clause may only be extended subject to an Agreement Addendum and in the following cases:

a) temporary suspension of the service by direct order of the CONTRACTING PARTY, in writing, for reasons that cannot be imputed to the CONTRACTED PARTIES, pursuant to Clause 13. In this case, the CONTRACTING PARTY shall refund the CONTRACTED PARTIES for the direct costs incurred by the latter as a result of and for the time period during which the suspension remains in effect, pursuant to the provisions of Clause 14. The CONTRACTING PARTY shall not be

14

responsible for compensating the CONTRACTED PARTIES for lost income.

b) fortuitous events or force majeure, duly evidenced by the CONTRACTED PARTIES, pursuant to the provisions of Clause 19. In this case, each PARTY shall bear the cost of its own losses for the period during which the extension remains in effect.

c) failure imputable only to the CONTRACTING PARTY to provide a suitable environment for implementation of the ACCESS required for the performance of the subject-matter hereof, as per item 12.1 (b). In this case, the CONTRACTING PARTY shall refund the CONTRACTED PARTIES for the direct costs incurred by the latter as a result of failure to make the environment available, and for as long as this situation persists. The CONTRACTING PARTY shall not be responsible for compensation to the CONTRACTED PARTIES for lost income as a result of the extension.

10.3 The potential extension granted in the cases mentioned in item 10.2 above shall correspond to the number of days of delay that actually occur and shall only be applied to the services that are proven to have been hindered by the delay.

10.4 The following shall not justify falling behind schedule in the performance of any of the services: the fact that the CONTRACTING PARTY may totally or partially reject any of the services and/or materials executed and/or employed if they do not correspond to the requirements, obligations and conditions of this AGREEMENT. Similarly, eventual suspension of services determined by the CONTRACTING PARTY’s inspectors in the case of irregularities being identified, as per Clause 13, shall not be accepted as justification for falling behind schedule.

CLAUSE 11 – OBLIGATIONS OF THE CONTRACTED PARTIES
