2Q 08 results, August 2008

We rated the TAM preferred stock a SELL in 1Q 08 update report, dated 23 June 2008, with a 6-12
month target price of BRL27.75 per share representing a potential downside of approximately 13%.
The TAM preferred stock achieved our target price, closing at BRL27.00 on 02 July 2008. We believe
the decline is attributable to investor concerns over the impact of rising crude oil prices. Since our 1Q
08 update report, crude oil price increased 8.6% to US$143.57 per barrel and Brazil’s Bovespa index
has declined approximately 14.5%, from 71,451.8 points on 23 June 2008 to 61,106.2 points on 03
July 2008.
