Net Serviços de Comunicação S.A. (Company), a publicly held company with head offices at Rua Verbo Divino # 1.356 – 1st floor, Chácara Santo Antônio, in the city and state of São Paulo, with the corporate taxpayer’s ID (CNPJ/MF) under no. 00.108.786/0001 -65, hereby announces, in response to Official Letter GAE/SAE 1982-08, that the Company has on record tax losses in the amount of R$1,169.4 million, whose more efficient use will only be possible if it manages to incorporate its operational subsidiaries.

Mr. João Adalberto Elek Jr.

The article published in the newspaper Gazeta Mercantil on July 22, 2008 states, among other information, that NET’s cumulative tax losses could reach R$1.2 billion and that to take advantage of these tax losses it requested permission from Anatel to restructure so that the profit earned from certain operations would offset losses at other operations.

We hereby request clarifications on this news report, in particular the effects on the Company’s equity and business and any other relevant information.

Sincerely,
