Independent auditors report on the financial statements

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

BRF - Brasil Foods S.A.

Itajaí - SC

We have audited the accompanying individual and consolidated financial statements of BRF - Brasil Foods S.A. (the Company), identified as Parent and Consolidated, respectively, which comprises the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2010 and the related statements of income, other comprehensive income, changes in shareholders equity and cash flows for the year then ended, as well as a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Managements responsibility for the financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these individual financial statements in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil and of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) , and in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures selected to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the entitys preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion on the individual financial statements

In our opinion, the aforementioned individual financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BRF - Brasil Foods S.A. as at December 31, 2010, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil.

Opinion on the consolidated financial statements

In our opinion, the aforementioned consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of BRF - Brasil Foods S.A. as of December 31, 2010, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the accounting practices adopted in Brazil.

Emphasis of matters

Difference between the individual financial statements and a separate financial statements under IFRS

As mentioned in note 2, the individual financial statements were prepared in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil. In the case of BRF - Brasil Foods S.A. these practices differ from the IFRS, applicable to a separate financial statements, only with respect to the measurements of investments in subsidiaries, associated companies and jointly controlled entities measured by the equity method, while for IFRS purposes these investments would be measured at cost or fair value.

Approval of Sadia S.A.s business combination

As mentioned in note 7, on July 8, 2009, the Company acquired the control of Sadia S.A. This transaction is under analysis of the Administrative Counsel for Economic Defense (CADE) and involved the execution of an Agreement for the Preservation of the Operation Reversibility (APRO), until the implementation of the final decision by CADE.

Other matters

Statements of value added

We also examined the individual and consolidated statement of value added (DVA), prepared under managements responsibility, for the year ended on December 31, 2010, for which the disclosure is required by Brazilian corporation laws applicable to publicly-held companies and is an additional information for the IFRS which does not require this disclosure. These statements were submitted to the same audit procedures previously described and, in our opinion, are fairly presented in all its material respects, in relation to the financial statements taken as whole.

Within this growth process, the Company carried out comprehensive corporate and business restructuring actions, aimed at maintaining the sustainability of its businesses by streamlining its corporate structure, reducing operating, tax and finance costs, as well as by reorganizing its operating activities.

2. MANAGEMENTS STATEMENT, BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Companys financial statements are in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil comprise the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission (CVM) and the pronouncements and interpretations of the Brazilian Accounting Pronouncements Committee (CPC), which are in conformity with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).

The individual financial statements of BRF have been prepared in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil and for presentation purposes, are identified as (BR GAAP) and differ from IFRS in relation to the evaluation of investments in associates and joint ventures, which were measured and recorded based on the equity accounting method rather than at cost or fair value, as is required by IFRS.

For the first time the Company prepared its consolidated financial statements according to the IFRS, the transition date adopted was January 1 st , 2009, therefore, for presentation purposes are identified as (BR GAAP and IFRS).

The effects of adopting the new accounting rules on the previously reported shareholders equity and net income are presented in note 3.

The Companys individual and consolidated financial statements, are expressed in thousands of Brazilian reais, as well as, the amount of other currencies disclosed in the financial statements, when applicable, were expressed in thousands.

The preparation of the Companys financial statements requires Management to make judgments, use estimates and adopt assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities, as well as the disclosures of contingent liabilities, as of the reporting date as disclosed in note 4.30. However, the uncertainty inherent to these judgments, assumptions and estimates could lead to results requiring a material adjustment to carrying amount of the affected asset or liability in future periods.

The settlement of the transactions involving these estimates can result in amounts that significantly differ from those recorded in the financial statements due to the lack of precision inherent to the estimation process. The Company reviews its judgments, estimates and assumptions on a quarterly basis.

The parent company and consolidated financial statements were prepared based on the historical cost except for the following material items recognized in the balance sheet:

· derivative financial instruments measured at fair value;

· derivative financial instruments measured at fair value through the statement of income ;

· financial assets available for sale measured at fair value; and

· assets and liabilities of acquired companies from January 1 st , 2009 recorded initially at fair value.

3. FIRST-TIME ADOPTION OF THE INTERNATIONAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

As from December 31, 2007, the Brazilian agencies responsible for accounting matters started to regulate Brazilian accounting practices in order for them to conform to the IFRS. The convergence process occurred in two stages: (1) in 2008, with the issuance of accounting pronouncements CPC 01 to CPC 14, which were applied by the Company to its individual and consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2008; and (2) in 2009, with the issuance of accounting pronouncements CPC 15 to CPC 41 and 43 (except for CPC 34 not yet issued), besides ICPCs and OCPCs, all of which were approved and also adopted by CVM.

The new accounting practices provided for in technical pronouncements CPC 15 to CPC 41 and 43 were initially adopted by the Company in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010, and retrospectively applied to all the periods presented for comparative purposes. The transition date adopted by the Company was January 1, 2009, the date on which the opening balance sheets were prepared in accordance with the new accounting practices. Management understands that the pronouncements issued by CPC and approved by CVM conform to IFRS, below is a list of the new technical pronouncements adopted by the Company:

· CPC 15 Business Combinations, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 580/09 corresponding to IFRS 3;

· CPC 16 (R1) Inventories, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 575/09 corresponding to IAS 2;

· CPC 20 Borrowing Costs, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 577/09 corresponding to IAS 23;

· CPC 21 Interim Financial Reporting, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 581/09 corresponding to IAS 34 and IFRIC 20;

· CPC 22 Segment Reporting, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 582/09 corresponding to IFRS 8;

· CPC 23 Accounting policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 592/09 corresponding to IAS 8;

· CPC 26 Presentation of Financial Statements, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 595/09 corresponding to IAS 21;

· CPC 27 Property, Plant and Equipment, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 583/09 corresponding to IAS 16;

· CPC 29 Biological Assets and Agricultural Products, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 596/09 corresponding to IAS 41;

· CPC 32 Income Taxes, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 599/09 corresponding to IAS 12 and SIC 21;

· CPC 33 Employee Benefits, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 600/09 corresponding to IAS 19 and IFRIC 14;

· CPC 37 (R1) First-time adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), approved by CVM Deliberation No. 609/09 corresponding to IAS 27;

· CPC 41 Earnings per Share, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 636/10 corresponding to IAS 33;

· CPC 43 (R1) - First-time adoption of Technical Pronouncements 15 to 40, approved by CVM Deliberation No. 610/09;

· ICPC 09 - Individual, Separate and Consolidated Financial Statements and Application of the Equity Method;

· ICPC 10 Clarifications on CPC 27 and CPC 28; and

· ICPC 12 Changes in Existing Decommissioning, Restoration and Similar Liabilities.

As a result of the convergence process, the Company, as of the transition date, applied certain voluntary exemptions provided for in the standards issued by CVM, as follows:

Business combinations: the Company applied the exemption referring to business combinations, electing not to restate the business combinations carried out before the transition date. Goodwill calculated prior to the transition date was maintained and is subject to impairment testing every year.
Use of deemed cost for property, plant and equipment: the Company elected not to measure property, plant and equipment at fair value as deemed cost taking into consideration that: (i) the cost method, net of a provision for losses, is the best method to value the Companys PP&E; (ii) the Companys PP&E is divided into well-defined classes of assets related to its operating activities; (iii) in 2009, the Company reviewed the estimated useful lives of its PP&E; and (iv) the Company has efficient controls over PP&E items that enable the identification of losses and changes in estimated useful lives.

Actuarial gains and losses: the Companys management recognized the actuarial gains and losses immediately through other comprehensive income, with immediate effect in the shareholders equity in the retained earnings. If an asset is determined in the end of the fiscal year and if this asset is above the asset ceiling, it will be recorded in shareholders equity through other comprehensive income at the transition date no asset was recognized by the Company.

The mandatory exemptions provided for in CVM standards were in accordance with the accounting practices previously adopted by the Company, and, therefore, had no impact on the consolidated and individual financial statements.

The amendments to the accounting practices applied in the preparation of the Companys financial statements, previously disclosed, were as follows:

(a) Deferred charges: upon first-time adoption of Law 11638/07, the Companys Management elected to maintain the balance of deferred charges until its full realization, subject to analysis of its recovery pursuant to CVM Deliberation No. 527/07, subsequently amended by CVM Deliberation No. 639/10. In 2010, in order for BR GAAP to conform to IFRS, Management elected to change the accounting policy for deferred charges and wrote off the total balance against the retained earnings account of January 1, 2009, as presented in the table above. In the parent company financial statements this accounting practice was voluntarily adopted.

(b) Other employee benefits: mainly comprised of benefits upon termination, such as medical plan, F.G.T.S. penalty, termination compensation and supplementary retirement plan, being mandatory the recognition of actuarial gains and losses directly in the specific account in the shareholders equity and cost of prior service recognized directly in the statement of income.

(c) Transfer freight: transfer freight expenditures, previously recorded as prepaid expenses, have been reclassified to inventories. The costs related to storage and distribution centers have been reclassified to the statement of income within selling expenses aiming to standardize accounting practices between the entities included in the consolidation in order to meet the requirements of CVM Deliberation No. 608/09.

(d) Business combination: according to the previous accounting practice, goodwill represented the difference between the amount paid and the carrying amount attributed to the net assets acquired; however, pursuant to CVM Deliberation No. 580/09, goodwill should be the difference calculated between the net fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including intangible assets, and, as a consequence, the business combination with Sadia, carried out on July 8, 2009, has been remeasured to comply with the prevailing legislation (refer to note 7).

(e) Effect of deferred income tax and social contribution on the adjustments described in items (a) to (d) above.

(f) Effect of equity method pick up of adjustments from (a) to (c) above.

(g) Effect of unrealized profit and treasury shares in subsidiaries.

Additionally to the adjustments presented above and in order to attend the new accounting requirements, the Companys management made some reclassification in the balance sheet and in the statement of income as presented below:

Judicial deposits previously presented within the balance of provision for tax, civil and labor risks were reclassified to the non-current assets;
The balance related to live animals for slaughtering previously classified as inventories was reclassified to the biological assets group in the current assets;
The balance related to breeding animals previously classified in the property, plant and equipment group was reclassified to the biological assets group in the non-current assets;
The balance related to derivatives transactions previously classified as loans and financing was reclassified to the other financial assets or liabilities;
The assets available for sale previously classified in as other assets were reclassified to assets held for sale group;
The non-controlling interest previously classified in a stand-alone group between liabilities and the shareholders equity was reclassified to the shareholders equity group; and
For fiscal years presented for comparison purposes, the transaction related to assigned receivables in the domestic market made by the wholly-owned subsidiary Sadia ended on September 30, 2010, was reclassified from accounts receivable in current assets to loans and financing in current liabilities.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRACTICES

4.1. Consolidation : includes the BRFs financial statements and the financial statements of the directly and indirectly held subsidiaries where BRF has control. All transactions and balances between BRF and its subsidiaries have been eliminated upon consolidation, as well as the unrealized profits or losses arising from negotiations between the Company and its subsidiaries, and the related charges and taxes. Non-controlling interest is presented separately.

In the preparation of the consolidated financial statements, the Company applied CVM Deliberation No. 534/08, which approved the technical pronouncement CPC 02, addressing the Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates and Translation of Financial Statements. Pursuant to this Resolution, the Company must apply the following criteria for the consolidation of foreign subsidiaries:

· Functional currency : the financial statements of each subsidiary included in the Companys consolidated financial statements are prepared using the currency of the main economic environment where it operates. The foreign subsidiaries adopt the real as their functional currency, except for the subsidiary Plusfood Groep B.V. and its subsidiaries, which adopt the Euro as their functional currency;

· Investments : investments in affiliates are accounted for under the equity method. The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated into Brazilian Reais in accordance with their functional currency using the following criteria:

Functional currency - Euro

· Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate at the end of the period.

· Statement of income accounts are translated at the exchange rate obtained from the monthly average rate of each month.

· The cumulative effects of gains or losses upon translation are directly recognized in the shareholders equity.

Functional currency Brazilian reais

· Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the historical rate of the transaction.

· Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate effective at the end of the period.

· Statement of income accounts are translated at the exchange rate obtained from the monthly average rate of each month.

· The cumulative effects of gains or losses upon translation are directly recognized in the statement of income.

Pursuant to CVM Instruction No. 608/09, the subsidiary Sadia consolidated the financial statements of a foreign investment fund named Concórdia Foreign Investment Fund Class A. Sadia is the sole unit holder of this fund (exclusive fund). This investment fund has the specific purpose of centralizing the portfolio of investments abroad, outsourcing administrative functions.

The accounting practices have been consistently applied in all subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial statements and are consistent with the practices adopted by the parent company. The financial statements of the subsidiaries have been prepared for the same reporting date as the parent company.

4.2. Business combinations : business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method. The cost of an acquisition is the sum of the consideration transferred, valued based on the fair value at acquisition date, and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree. For each business combination, the Company recognizes any non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interests proportionate share of the acquirees net assets. Costs directly attributable to the acquisition must be accounted for as an expense when incurred.

When acquiring a business, Management evaluate the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in order to classify and allocate them pursuant to the terms of the agreement, economic circumstances and the conditions at acquisition date.

Goodwill is initially measured as the excess of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired (net assets identified and liabilities assumed). If the consideration is lower than the fair value of the net assets acquired, the difference should be recognized as a gain in the statement of income.

After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost, net of any accumulated impairment losses. For purposes of impairment testing, the goodwill acquired in a business combination, as from the acquisition date, should be allocated to each of the Companys cash generating units expected to be benefit from the synergies of the combination, regardless of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are attributed to these units.

4.3. Segment information : an operating segment is a Companys component that carries out business activities from which it can obtain revenues and incur expenses. The operating segments reflect how the Companys management reviews financial information to make decisions and for which individual financial information is available. The Companys management identified two segments operations for disclosure, the domestic and the foreign markets, which meet the quantitative and qualitative disclosure parameters. The segments identified for disclosure represent geographical sales areas, and, accordingly, information according to the characteristics of the products is also presented, based on their nature, as follows: meat and dairy, elaborated and processed products. Products of other nature were grouped as other, since they do not meet the quantitative parameters, nor do they have qualitative importance to the periods presented.

4.4. Cash and cash equivalents: include cash on hand, bank deposits and highly liquid investments in fixed-income funds and/or securities with maturities, upon acquisition, of 90 days or less, which are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and subject to immaterial risk of change in value. The investments classified in this group, due to their nature, are measured at fair value through the statement of income.

4.5. Financial instruments: Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the purpose for which they were acquired, and their classification is determined at the initial recognition of the financial instruments, being divided into the following categories: financial investments, loans, receivables, derivatives and other.

4.5.1. Financial investments are financial assets that comprise public and private fixed-income securities, classified and recorded based on the purpose for which they were acquired, in accordance with the following categories:

· Trading securities: acquired for sale or repurchase in the short term, initially recorded at fair value plus its variations, with a corresponding entry directly recorded in the statement of income for the year within interest income or expense;

· Held to maturity: when the Company has the intention and financial ability to hold them up to maturity, the investments are recorded at cost, plus interest, inflation adjustment and exchange rate changes, when applicable, and recognized in the statement of income when incurred, within interest income or expense; and

· Available for sale: this category is for all the financial assets that do not classified any of the categories above, which are measured at fair value, with variations recorded in the shareholders equity within other comprehensive income while the asset is not realized, net of taxes. Interest, inflation adjustments and exchange rate changes, when applicable, are recognized in the statement of income when incurred within interest income or expense.

4.5.2. Derivatives measured at fair value : these are derivatives actively traded on organized markets, and their fair value is determined based on the amounts quoted on the market at the balance sheet date. These financial instruments are designated at initial recognition, classified as other financial assets and/or liabilities, with a corresponding entry in the statement of income within Finance income or costs or Cash flow hedge, which are recorded in equity net of taxes.

4.5.3. Hedge transactions : derivatives used to hedge exposures to risks or change the characteristics of financial assets and liabilities, unrecognized firm commitments, highly probable transactions or net investments in transactions abroad, and which: (i) are highly correlated as regards changes in their fair value in relation to the fair value of the hedged item, both at inception and throughout the life of the contract (effectiveness from 80% to 125%); (ii) are supported by documents that identify the transaction, the hedged risk, the risk management process and the methodology used to assess effectiveness; and (iii) are considered as effective in the mitigation of the risk associated with the hedged exposure. Their accounting follows CVM Deliberation No. 604/09, which allows the application of the hedge accounting methodology with the effects of measurement at fair value recognized in equity and their realization in the statement of income under a caption corresponding to the hedged item. The Company elected to apply this methodology to its hedge transactions that meet the criteria described above (refer to note 5.4).

4.5.4. Loans and receivables : these are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments which are not quoted on an active market. Such assets are initially recognized at fair value plus any attributable transaction costs. After initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost under the effective interest rate method, less any impairment losses.

4.6. Adjustment to present value : the Company and its subsidiaries measure the adjustment to present value of outstanding balances of trade receivables, other rights, trade payables, social obligations and other long-term obligations. The Company adopts the weighted average of the cost of funding on the domestic and foreign markets to determine the adjustment to present value to the assets and liabilities previously mentioned, which corresponds to 6.33% per year. (6.13% per year as of December 31, 2009). The subsidiary Sadia calculated and recorded the adjustment to present value of trade receivables based on the rate used in each transaction, which corresponds to 4.5% per month, and for trade payables it used 100% of the Interbank Certificate of Deposit (CDI) that on December 31, 2010, corresponded to 9.75% a.a.

4.7. Trade receivables and other receivables : are recorded at the invoiced amount and adjusted to present value, when applicable, net of estimated losses on doubtful receivables.

The Company adopts procedures and analyses to establish credit limits and substantially does not require collateral from customers. In the event of default, collection attempts are made, which includes direct contact with customers and collection through third parties. Should these efforts not prove successful, court measures are considered and the notes are reclassified to non-current at the same time an estimated loss on doubtful receivables is recorded (refer to note 10).

4.8. Inventories : are stated at average cost, not exceeding market value or net realizable value. The cost of finished products includes raw materials, labor, cost of production, transport and storage, all of which are related to making the products ready for sale. Provisions for obsolescence, adjustments to net realizable value, impaired items and slow-moving inventories are recorded when necessary. Production losses are recorded and are an integral part of the production cost of the respective month, whereas unusual losses, if any, are recorded directly as an expense for the year (refer to note 11).

4.9. Biological assets : pursuant to CVM Deliberation No. 596/09, agricultural activity is the management of the biological transformation of biological assets (living animals and/or plants) for sale, into agricultural produce, or additional biological assets.

The Company classifies living poultry and pigs as biological assets. The Company recognizes biological assets when it controls these assets as a result of a past event and it is probable that future economic benefits associated with these assets will flow to the Company and fair value can be reliably estimated.

Pursuant to CVM Deliberation No. 596/09, biological assets should be measured at fair value less selling expenses at the time they are initially recognized and at the end of each accrual period, except for cases in which fair value cannot be reliably estimated.

In Managements opinion, the fair value of biological assets is substantially represented by cost, mainly due to the short life span of the animals and the fact that a significant share of the profits from our products arises from the manufacturing process rather than from the obtaining of fresh meat (raw material/ slaughter readiness). This opinion is supported by a fair value appraisal report prepared by an independent expert, which calculated an immaterial difference between the two methodologies. As a consequence, Management continued to record biological assets at cost.

4.10. Non-current assets held for sale: the assets included in this subgroup are those identified as unusable by the Company and whose sale has been authorized by Management; accordingly, there is a firm commitment to find a purchaser and conclude the sale are readily available at a reasonable price and unlikely changes in the sell plan . These assets are measured at carrying amount or fair value, whichever is lower, net of selling costs and are not depreciated or amortized.

4.11. Property, plant and equipment : stated at cost of acquisition or construction, less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses, when applicable. The costs of capitalized borrowings are recorded as an integral part of construction in progress, pursuant to CVM Deliberation No. 577/09.

Depreciation is recognized based on the estimated economic useful life of each asset on the straight-line basis. The estimated useful life, residual values and depreciation methods are annually reviewed and the effects of any changes in estimates are accounted for prospectively. Land is not depreciated.

CVM Deliberation No. 527/07 requires an analysis of the recoverability of all the items included in this subgroup whenever there is an indication of impairment, since no item should remain recorded at an amount that exceeds realizable value, either by sale or use. The Company performed a recoverability test in the last quarter of 2010 and did not identify any items requiring adjustments.

Gains and losses on disposals are calculated by comparing the sales value with the residual book value and recognized in the income statement.

4.12. Intangible assets : are identifiable nonphysical assets, under the Companys control and which generate future economic benefits.

Intangible assets acquired are measured at cost at the time they are initially recognized. The cost of intangible assets acquired in a business combination corresponds to the fair value at acquisition date. After initial recognition, intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses, when applicable. Internally-generated intangible assets, excluding development costs, are not capitalized and expenditure is recognized in the statement of income for the year in which it was incurred.

The useful life of intangible assets is assessed as finite or indefinite.

Intangible assets with a finite life are amortized over the economic useful life and reviewed for impairment whenever there is an indication of a reduction in the economic value of the asset. The amortization period and method for an intangible asset with a finite useful life are reviewed at least at the end of each fiscal year. The amortization of intangible assets with a finite useful life is recognized in the statement of income as an expense consistently with the use of the intangible asset.

Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but are annually tested for impairment on an individual basis or at the cash generating unit level. The Company records in intangible assets goodwill balance.

Goodwill recoverability was tested in the last quarter of 2010 and no adjustments to reflect an impairment loss were identified. Such test involved the adoption of assumptions and judgments, as detailed in note 19.

4.13. Income taxes and social contributions: in Brazil, these comprise Income Tax (IRPJ) and Social Contribution (CSLL), which are monthly calculated on taxable income, at the rate of 15% plus a 10% surtax for IRPJ and of 9% for CSLL, considering the offset of tax loss carryforwards, up to the limit of 30% of taxable income.

The income from foreign subsidiaries is subject to taxation in their home countries, pursuant to the local tax rates and standards (refer to note 15).

Deferred taxes represent credits and debits on IRPJ and CSLL tax losses, as well as temporary differences between the tax basis and the carrying amount. Deferred income tax and social contribution assets and liabilities are classified as non-current, as required by CVM Deliberation No. 595/09; when it is probable that these credits will not be used in the future, a provision is established for non-recovery of deferred taxes.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if a legally enforceable right exists to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity. In the consolidated financial statements, the Companys tax assets and liabilities can be offset against the tax assets and liabilities of the subsidiaries if, and only if, these entities have a legally enforceable right to make or receive a single net payment and intend to make or receive this net payment, or recover the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously; therefore, for presentation purposes, the balances of tax assets and tax liabilities are being disclosed separately (refer to note 15).

4.14. Accounts payable and trade accounts payable : are initially recognized at fair value and subsequently increased, if applicable, with the accrued charges, monetary and exchange variations incurred until the closing dates of the financial statements.

4.15. Provision for tax, civil and labor risks and contingent liabilities : provisions are established when the Company has a present obligation (legal or not formalized) as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated.

The Company is a party to various lawsuits and administrative proceedings. The assessment of the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome in these lawsuits and proceedings includes the analysis of the evidence available, the hierarchy of the laws, available former court decisions, as well as the most recent court decisions and their importance to the Brazilian legal system, as well as the opinion of external legal counsel. The provisions are reviewed and adjusted to reflect changes in the circumstances, such as the applicable statute of limitation, conclusions of tax inspections or additional exposures identified based on new matters or court decisions (refer to note 26).

A contingent liability recognized in a business combination is initially measured at fair value and subsequently measured at the higher of:

· the amount that would be recognized in accordance with the accounting policy for the provisions above (CVM Deliberation No. 594/09); or

· the amount initially recognized less, if appropriate, cumulative amortization recognized in accordance with the revenue recognition policy (CVM Deliberation No. 597/09).

As a result of the business combination with Sadia, the Company recognized contingent liabilities related to tax, civil and labor matters, as described in notes 7 and 26.

Costs incurred with disposal of assets are accrued based on the present value of the costs expected to settle the obligation using estimated cash flows, and are recognized as an integral part of the corresponding asset, or as a production cost, when incurred.

4.16. Leases : lease transactions in which the risks and rewards of ownership are substantially transferred are classified as finance leases. When there is no significant transfer of the risks and rewards of ownership, lease transactions are classified as operating leases.

Finance lease agreements are recognized in property, plant and equipment and in liabilities at the lower of the present value of the minimum mandatory installments of the agreement and the fair value of the asset, including, when applicable, the initial direct costs incurred in the transaction. The amounts recorded in property, plant and equipment are depreciated and the underlying interest is recorded in the statement of income in accordance with the term of the lease agreement.

Operating lease agreements are recognized as expenses throughout the lease period (refer to note 23).

4.17. Share based payment : the Company provides share based payment for its executives, which are settled with Company shares. The Company adopts the provisions of CVM Deliberation No. 562/08, recognizing as an expense, on the straight-line basis, the fair value of the options granted, over the length of service required by the plan, with a corresponding entry to equity and/or liabilities. The fair value of the options is updated on a quarterly basis, in accordance with the assumptions available on the market (refer to note 24).

4.18. Actuarial assets and liabilities on employee benefits: The Company and its subsidiaries recognize actuarial assets and liabilities related to employee benefits (medical plan, fine F.G.T.S. and compensation for termination and retirement) in accordance with the criteria provided for in CVM Deliberation No. 600/09. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in other operating income based on the actuarial report (refer to note 25).

The contributions made by the sponsors are recognized as an expense for the year.

The plan assets are the disposal of the Companys creditors and cannot be directly paid to the Company. Fair value is based on information on the market price and, in the case of quoted securities, on the purchase price disclosed. The value of any defined benefit asset recognized is restricted to the sum of any past service costs not yet recognized and the fair value of any economic benefit available in the form of reductions in the plans future employer contributions.

4.19. Capital : common shares are classified as equity. Additional costs directly attributable to issue of shares are recognized as a deduction from equity, after any tax effects.

4.20. Repurchase of shares (treasury shares): when the capital recognized as equity is repurchased, the amount of compensation paid, which includes directly attributable costs, net of any tax effects, is recognized as a deduction from equity. The repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares and are presented as a deduction from total equity. When treasury shares are subsequently sold or reissued, the value received is recognized as an increase in shareholders' equity and surplus or deficit arising is transferred to retained earnings.

4.21. Earnings per share: basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year. Diluted earnings per share are calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the holders of ordinary shares of the parent company by the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year, plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on conversion of all dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares (refer to note 28).

4.22. Determination of income : results from operations are recorded on the accrual basis.

4.23. Revenues : are recognized when the ownership and risks inherent to the product are substantially transferred to the customer, when the sales price is fixed and determinable, when there is evidence of a sales contract and when collection is reasonably assured.

Revenues are not recognized when there is substantial uncertainty as to their realization (refer to note 30).

Revenue is presented net of taxes, returns, rebates and discounts in the consolidated financial statements and also net of eliminations of sales between BRF and its subsidiaries.

In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries have incentive programs and sales discounts, which are accounted for as deductions from sales or selling expenses, based on their nature. These programs include discounts to customers for a good sales performance based on volumes and marketing actions carried out at the sales points.

4.24. Employee and management profit sharing: employees are entitled to profit sharing based on certain targets agreed upon on an annual basis, whereas managers are entitled to profit sharing based on the provisions of the by-laws. Profit sharing is proposed by the Board of Directors and approved by the stockholders. The profit sharing amount is recognized in the statement of income for the period in which the targets are attained (refer to note 29 b and 32).

4.25. Research and development : expenditures on research activities, undertaken with the opportunity to gain knowledge and understanding of science or technology, are recognized in income as incurred. Development activities involve a plan or project aimed at producing new or significantly improved. The development costs are capitalized only if development costs can be reliably measured, if the product or process is technically and commercially viable if the future economic benefits are probable, and if the Company has the intention and the resources to complete the development and use or sell the asset. The expenditures capitalized include the cost of materials, labor, manufacturing costs that are directly attributable to preparing the asset for its intended use, other development expenditures are recognized in income as incurred.

The capitalized development expenditures are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and loss on the impairment.

4.26. Financial revenues : include interest earnings on amounts invested (including available for sale financial assets), dividend income (except for dividends received from equity investees evaluated by the Company), gains on disposal of available for sale financial assets, changes in fair value of financial assets measured at fair value through income and gains on hedging instruments that are recognized in income. Interest income is recognized in earnings through the effective interest method. The dividend income is recognized in the statement of income on the date that the Company's right to receive payment is established. The distributions received from investees that are recorded under equity reduce the value of the investment.

4.27. Subsidies and tax incentives: the Company has Value-added Tax on Sales and Services (ICMS) benefits for investments mainly granted by the governments of the states of Santa Catarina, Goiás, Pernambuco, Mato Grosso, São Paulo, Minas Gerais, Bahia and the Federal District. These tax incentives are directly linked to the operation of production units, creation of jobs and social and economic development in the respective states, and are directly recorded in the statement of income in the amount of R$23,091 on December 31, 2010 (R$21,664 on December 31, 2009) . If the tax incentives generate future obligations, these obligations are recognized at their initial fair value and recorded in the statement of income as fulfilled, with a corresponding entry to the tax benefits received.

The subsidiary Sadia received as a donation a plot of land located in the state of Pernambuco, whose fair value as of December 31, 2009 is R$4,139. The donation is conditioned on the construction of a production unit, which will create jobs and contribute to the economic and social development of the region. In compliance with CVM Deliberation No. 555/08, the fair value of the land, obtained through appraisals carried out by real estate agencies in the region, was recognized in PP&E with a corresponding entry to long-term obligations. The value of the land will be recognized in the statement of income as the production unit is depreciated.

4.28. Dividends and interest on capital : the proposal for payment of dividends and interest on capital made by the Companys Management which is within the portion equivalent to the mandatory minimum dividend is recorded in current liabilities, for it is regarded as a legal obligation provided for in the by-laws; on the other hand, the dividends that exceed the mandatory minimum dividend, declared by Management before the end of the accounting period covered by the financial statements, not yet approved by the stockholders, is recorded as Additional dividend proposed in shareholders equity.

For financial statement presentation purposes, interest on capital is stated as an allocation of income directly in equity (refer to note 27 d).

5. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

5.1 Overview

In the normal course of its business, the Company is exposed to market risks related mainly to the fluctuation of interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. The Company utilizes hedging instruments to mitigate its exposure to these risks, based on a Financial Risk Management Policy (Risk Policy) under the management of the Financial Risk Management Committee, Board of Executive Officers and Board of Directors.

The Company has policies and procedures for the administration of such exposures and can use hedging instruments, provided they are approved by the Board of Directors, to reduce the impacts of these risks. Such policies and procedures include the monitoring of the levels of exposure to each market risk and its measurement, including an analysis based on the accounting exposure and forecast of future cash flows, besides setting limits for decision making. All the instruments used by the Company are aimed at: (i) protection of the foreign exchange exposure of its debt and cash flow; (ii) exposure of interest rates; and (iii) exposure of price variation of some commodities.

The Board of Directors plays a crucial role in the financial risk management structure as responsible for approval of the Risk Policy prepared by the Financial Risk Management Committee and for the supervision of the performance of this policy, verifying if the established limits are being respected. Moreover, the Board of Directors defines the limits of tolerance of the different risks identified as acceptable for the Company on behalf of its shareholders.

The Board of Directors is in charge of the evaluation of the Companys positioning for each risk identified, according to the guidelines enacted by the Board of Directors. In addition, it is responsible for the approval of: (i) the action plans defined for the alignment of risks with the defined tolerance; (ii) the performance indicators to be used in risk management; (iii) the overall limits; and (iv) the evaluation of suggestions for refinements in the policy.

The Financial Risk Management Committee is in charge of the execution of the Risk Policy. It is this committee that supervises the risk management process, plans and verifies the impact of the decisions implemented, evaluates and approves hedging alternatives, monitors and keeps track of the levels of exposure and the fulfillment of the policy, keeps track of the performance of hedging operations through reports and evaluates the scenarios to be applied in the operations, in the cash flow and in the indebtedness of the Company, in conformity with the established policy.

In the Risk Policy the Company determines the strategies to be adopted, and the Management contracts hedging instruments that are approved within the delegation of authority levels. The Board of Directors, Board of Executive Officers and Financial Risk Committee have different levels of authority where each one acts within the limits pre-established in this Policy.

The Policy does not authorize the Company to contract leveraged transactions in derivative markets, and determines that individual hedge operations (notional) must be limited to 2.5% of the Companys shareholders equity.

The inclusion and updating of transactions are recorded in the Companys operating systems, with proper segregation of duties in the reconciliations with the counterparties, with validation by the back-office and daily monitoring by the financial area.

Given the objective of utilizing hedging transactions to mitigate the risks and the uncertainties to which the Company is exposed, the results obtained in the period meet the established objectives.

As allowed by CVM Deliberation No. 604/09, the Company applies hedge accounting rules to its derivative instruments classified as cash flow hedge, as determined in its Risk Policy. The cash flow hedge consists of hedging exposure against variability of the cash flow that (i) is attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability, or (ii) a highly probable predicted transaction, and (iii) could affect profit and loss.

One of the purposes of the Risk Policy is to determine parameters of use of financial instruments, including derivatives, which are designed to protect the operating and financial assets and liabilities, exposed to foreign exchange rate, and commodity price variation. The finance department is responsible for the fulfillment of the Risk Policy.

5.2.Interest rate risk management

The interest rate risk is the risk of the Company suffering economic losses due to adverse changes in the interest rates, which may be caused by factors related to economic crises and/or alteration of monetary policy in the domestic and foreign market, etc. This exposure refers mainly to changes in the market interest rates that affect Company liabilities and assets indexed by the LIBOR, TJLP (long-term interest rate), UMBNDES (monetary unit of the Brazilian Development Bank) or CDI (interbank deposit certificate) rate, besides possible derivative transactions involving fixed rate positions against one of the above mentioned indexes that could give rise to unrealized and/or realized losses originated by the determination of the fair market value (mark to market).

The Companys Risk Policy does not restrict exposure to the different interest rates and does not establish limits between fixed and floating rates either.

The Company continually monitors market interest rates, aiming to evaluate the potential need to enter in contracts to serve as hedge against the volatility of these rates. These transactions are basically characterized by changing from floating rate to fixed rate. Such transactions were designated by the Company as cash flow hedge.

The Company seeks to maintain a stable correlation between its current and non-current term indebtedness, maintaining a higher portion in the non-current term.

The Companys indebtedness is essentially tied to the LIBOR , fixed coupon (R$ and USD), TJLP and UMBNDES rates. In the event of adverse changes in the market that result in LIBOR hikes, the cost of the floating indebtedness rises and on the other hand, the cost of the fixed indebtedness decreases in relative terms. The same consideration is also applicable to the TJLP.

With regards to the Company's cash and equivalents, the main index is the CDI for investments in the domestic market and fixed coupon (USD) for investments in the foreign market. In the event of a CDI increase, impacts become favorable, while in the event of a CDI decrease, results become unfavorable.

The table below summarizes the changes in the interest rates and the impacts for the Company.

Interest fixed rate risk — Index	Exposure	Variation	Impact	Interest floating rate risk — Index	Exposure	Variation	Impact
CDI	Cash and cash equivalents	+	-	CDI	Cash and cash equivalents	+	+
CDI	Cash and cash equivalents	-	+	CDI	Cash and cash equivalents	-	-
CDI	Liabilities	+	+	CDI	Liabilities	+	-
CDI	Liabilities	-	-	CDI	Liabilities	-	+
LIBOR /Cupom USD	Cash and cash equivalents	+	-	TJLP	Liabilities	+	-
LIBOR /Cupom USD	Cash and cash equivalents	-	+	TJLP	Liabilities	-	+
LIBOR /Cupom USD	Liabilities	+	+	LIBOR	Liabilities	+	-
LIBOR /Cupom USD	Liabilities	-	-	LIBOR	Liabilities	-	+

During the year of 2010, the Monetary Policy Committee (COPOM) started a basic interest rate hiking cycle, bringing it up from 8.75% to 10.75% per annum. Accordingly, the financial income originating from investments subject to CDI variation increased. On the other hand, with the expectation of maintenance of interest rates in other markets, LIBOR remained at historically low levels, reducing the financial expenses associated to this indicator.

The results obtained in relation to the objectives proposed by the Company concerning exposure to interest rates were attained in the year 2010.

5.3. Foreign exchange risk management

Foreign exchange risk is the risk of fluctuations of foreign currency exchange rates causing the Company to incur unexpected losses, leading to a reduction of the values of assets or an increase of the amounts of obligations. The main exposures to which the Company is subject, as regards foreign exchange variations, refer to the fluctuation of the US Dollar and also of the Euro and of the British Pound in relation to the Brazilian Real.

The aim of the Companys Risk Policy is the prevention from excessive exposure to the risks of foreign exchange variations by balancing its assets not denominated in Brazilian Reais against its obligations also not denominated in Brazilian reais, thus protecting the Companys balance sheet. For this purpose, the Company can make use of over-the-counter transactions (swaps) and transactions on the futures exchange (see table below).

The subsidiary Sadia does not have outstanding derivative contracts.

(b) Basically refers to the acquisition of inventories and suppliers.

The Company's total foreign exchange exposure is US$76,232 and is within the limit established by the Risk Policy.

Moreover, the Companys Risk Policy aims to protect the operating revenues and costs that involve operations resulting from the business activity, such as estimates of exports and purchases of raw materials. For this purpose, the Company uses hedge instruments, approved in the Risk Policy, focused mainly on the protection of its foreign currency denominated projected cash flow.

On December 31, 2010, the Company had NDF transactions, purchase of dollar put options in the amount of US$480,000 and export prepayments (PPEs) in the amount of US$482,508, designated as effective hedge accounting (unrealized gains or losses deferred in shareholders equity up to the maturity date, where results will be fully allocated in the operating revenue group. On the same date, the Company held short position of EUR187,000 and GBP43,500.

With the intention of performing active management and following the Risk Policy, the Company performs daily monitoring, through reports issued by the financial area and validated by the back-office area, on cash flow needs and foreign exchange exposure.

5.5. Breakdown of the balances of financial instruments designated for cash flow hedge accounting and export revenues

The Company executed the formal designation of its operations for hedge accounting treatment for the derivative financial instruments to protect cash flows and export revenues, documenting: (i) the relationship of the hedge, (ii) the objective and risk management strategy of the Company in executing the hedge, (iii) the identification of the financial instrument, (iv) the hedge object or transaction, (v) the nature of the risk to be hedged, (vi) the description of the hedge relationship, (vii) the demonstration of correlation between the hedge transaction and the hedge object, when applicable, and (viii) prospective demonstration of the effectiveness of the hedge.

Hedged items for which Company designates hedge accounting are highly probable and present almost a perfect combination with the hedge transaction in terms of effectiveness. In other words P&L statements reflect matching results consistent with initial coverage intention.

The Company recorded the unrealized results in the shareholders equity of the designated derivatives for interest rates and exchange rates risks.

For the PUT options, the Company designates only their intrinsic value as a hedge instrument (hedge accounting), opting to recognize the time value in the financial result (Profit and Loss statement). If the hedge is not effective and the option is lost due to devaluation of the Real, the losses related to the time value of the options will be registered in the financial result.

The time value of an option can be calculated by the difference between the fair value of the option on the measurement date (quotation of the option that represents the fair value of premium) and the intrinsic value of the option on the measurement date. When the quotation of the option is not available in an active market, the fair value will be based on an option pricing model (Black-Scholes or Binomial).

This type of foreign exchange hedge using the put option consists of designating the variation of the intrinsic value of the put option only in the case of appreciation of the Real (one-sided risk).

As authorized by CVM Deliberation No. 604/09, the Company will use the variations of the spot exchange rates of the PPE agreements as an instrument to hedge the foreign exchange variation risk suffered by its highly probable future export sales in foreign currency (USD). Thus, the foreign exchange variations derived from such PPE contracts will be recorded in the shareholders equity.

The Company adopted as a methodology for performance of the retrospective effectiveness test the comparison of the foreign exchange variation arising from the PPE agreement (variation of the fair value of the hedging instrument), measured by the variation of the spot exchange rates, with the variation of the fair value of highly probable future export revenues (variation of the fair value of the hedged item), measured by the variation of the spot exchange rates (Spot-to-Spot rate method).

5.6 Determination of the fair value of financial instruments

The Company discloses its financial assets and liabilities at fair value, based on the pertinent accounting pronouncements that define fair value, which refers to concepts of valuation and practices, and requires certain disclosures on the fair value.

Specifically as regards disclosure, the Company applies the hierarchy requirements set out in CVM Deliberation No. 604/09, which involves the following aspects:

· Definition of the fair value as the price that should be received in the sale of an asset or paid in the transfer of a liability in a regular transaction between market players on the measurement date, and establishment of assumptions for the fair value measurement;

· Hierarchy on 3 levels for measurement of the fair value, according to observable inputs for the valuation of an asset or liability on the date of its measurement;

Valuation on 3 levels of hierarchy for measurement of the fair value is based on observable and non-observable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while non-observable inputs reflect the Companys market assumptions. These two types of input create the hierarchy of fair value presented below:

· Level 1 - Prices quoted for identical instruments in active markets;

· Level 2 - Prices quoted in active markets for similar instruments, prices quoted for identical or similar instruments in non-active markets and evaluation models for which inputs are observable;

· Level 3 - Instruments whose significant inputs are non-observable .

Management understands that due to the short-term cycle, balances of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable are close to their fair value recognition. In relation to loans and credit facilities the book value is close to the fair value in a major portion of the total gross debt. That is justified by floating BNDES interest rates credit lines (TJLP) and floating trade finance interest rates loans (LIBOR, CDI). Company is subject to differences between book value and fair value only in Capital Markets transactions (Bond). On December 31, 2010, fair value negative adjustment for Bond BRFSBZ accounted for R$95,251.

We present below a description of the valuation methodologies used by the Company for financial instruments measured at fair value:

· Investments in financial assets in the categories of Brazilian foreign debt securities, national treasury certificates, financial treasury notes, financial investment fund and shares are classified at Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy, as the market prices are available in an active market.

· Investments in financial assets in the categories of CDB (Bank Deposit Certificates), and repurchase agreements backed by debentures are classified at Level 2, since the method of valuation at fair value occurs through the price quotation of similar financial instruments in non-active markets.

· Derivatives are valued through existing pricing models very well accepted by financial market based on public market inputs such as interest rate forecasts, volatility factors and foreign currency rates. We classify these instruments at level 2 of the valuation hierarchy. Such instruments include swaps, NDFs and options.

The valuation model used by the Company for derivatives considers its own performance risk. Although during 2009, there has been a deterioration of the global credit market, without a full recovering, management believes that there is a low risk of performance as of December 31, 2010.

5.7. Credit management

The Company is potentially subject to the credit risk related to trade accounts receivable, financial investments and derivative contracts. The Company limits its risk associated with these financial instruments, allocating them to financial institutions selected by the criteria of rating and percentage of maximum concentration by counterparties.

The credit risk concentration of accounts receivable is minimized due to the diversification of the customer portfolio and concession of credit to customers with sound financial and operational conditions. The Company does not normally require collateral for credit sales, yet it has a contracted credit insurance policy for specific markets.

On December 31, 2010 , the Company maintained financial investments above R$10,000 at the following financial institutions: Santander, Itaú Unibanco, Banco do Brasil, Bradesco, Votorantim, Deutsche Bank, Safra, Credit Suisse, Standard, BTG Pactual, HSBC, Caixa Econômica Federal, Banco do Nordeste and Citibank.

The Company also held derivative contracts with the following financial institutions: Santander, Citibank, HSBC, Credit Suisse, Banco do Brasil, Itaú BBA, Rabobank, Merrill Lynch, Votorantim, Bradesco, JP Morgan, Banco Espírito Santo, BNP, Barclays, Pactual and Morgan Stanley.

5.8 Liquidity risk management

Liquidity risk management aims to ensure adequate readily-available resources to meet all Companys obligations on time and at all times. With this objective, this policy aims to reduce the impacts caused by events which may create material volatility to the Companys cash flow.

The Company has identified market risk factors which are linked to future cash flow and may jeopardize its liquidity. It also calculates the Cash Flow at Risk (CFAR) on a twelve-month basis targeting to verify possible cash flow forecast deviations. The Company established a minimum amount of cash and cash equivalents to be considered based on to the LTM average monthly turnover and EBITDA figures, among other aspects.

Derivatives transactions may demand payment of cyclical variations (deposit margins). Currently, the Company holds only BM&F operations with daily variations. The control of variations is conducted through the Value at Risk (VAR) methodology, which measures with statistical accuracy of the probable maximum variation to be paid on a 1 to 21-day interval. The Company then assesses such VAR with its policy.

With regards to the investments, the Company presents conservative allocation principles focusing on liquidity, diversification (avoiding counterparty concentration) and profitability.

The Companys also considers its refinancing risks. The current leverage profile and debt maturity schedule allow the Company to maintain a satisfactory level of refinancing risks given the credit and capital markets environment and the Companys operating performance, Given the internal targets, the majority of the Companys financial debt is allocated in the long term. On December 31, 2010, the long term debt portion accounted for 69% of total debt, presenting an average term of higher than 3 years.

The table below summarizes the commitments and contractual obligations that might impact Companys liquidity as of December 31, 2010:

5.9. Commodity price risk management

In the normal course of its operations, the Company purchases commodities, mainly corn, soymeal and live hog, which are some of the individual components of production cost.

Corn and soymeal prices are subject to volatility resulting from weather conditions, crop yield, transportation costs, storage costs, agricultural policy of the government, foreign exchange rates and the prices of these commodities on the international market, among others factors. The prices of hog acquired from third parties are subject to market conditions and are influenced by internal availability and levels of demand in the international market, among other aspects.

The Risk Policy establishes limits for hedging the corn and soymeal purchase flow, aiming to diminish the impact of a price increase of these raw materials, with the possibility of using derivative instruments or inventory management for this purpose. Currently the management of inventory levels is used exclusively as a hedging instrument.

During the year 2010, the Companys management decided to hedge the exposure to live cattle directly linked to the different business categories within the scope of the Beef Division. The following categories are contemplated: (i) forward purchase of cattle, (ii) contracting of own cattle confinement, (iii) contracting of cattle confinement with partnership and (iv) spot purchase of cattle aiming to guarantee the off-season scale of slaughtering.

The contracts are recorded at their fair value by means of the financial result, regardless of the expiration month of the contract.

The Company held a short position at BM&F of 137 futures contracts on December 31, 2010, maturing in January, February and October 2011, not having contracted this category of derivatives in previous years.

Additionally, on December 31, 2010, through the use of options strategies, the Company held a short position of 700 lots, as presented in table 5.3.2.

5.10. Sensitivity analysis chart

The Company has loans, payables and receivables in foreign currency, and in order to mitigate the risks incurred through foreign exchange exposure it contracts derivative financial instruments.

The Company understands that the present interest rate fluctuations do not significantly affect its financial result since it opted to change to fixed rate a considerable part of its floating interest rates debts by using derivative transactions (interest rates swaps). Company designates such derivatives as hedge accounting and therefore adopts special accounting treatment proving the effectiveness of the hedge transaction.

Five scenarios are considered for the year 2011 in the table below, considering the percentage variations of the quotes of parity between the Brazilian Reais and U.S. Dollar, Brazilian Reais and Euro and Brazilian Reais and Pounds, whereas the most likely scenario is that adopted by the Company. The remaining scenarios are based on quoted prices from the Brazilian Central Bank as of December 31, 2010. The amount of exports analyzed corresponds to the total value of derivative financial instruments increased by the flow of amortization of the PPEs of the next 12 months designated as hedge accounting.

(c) Refers to the fair value of the brands whose useful lives are indefinite and to the fair value of assets of definite useful life, such as relationship with suppliers and patents. The realization of the fair value occurs by means of rates that vary from 25% to 48% per year. The accumulated amortization of the fair value of the intangibles with definite useful life on December 31, 2010 corresponds to approximately R$84,456 (R$28,152 on December 31, 2009);

(d) Refers to the adjustment to the fair value of the loans and financing realized according to their maturity dates. The accumulated realization on December 31, 2010 corresponds to approximately R$5,320 (R$1,332 on December 31, 2009);

(e) Refers to the fair value of the guarantees and accommodation papers granted by Sadia and deferred revenue of sales of rights on payroll realized according to the maturity dates.

(f) Refers to the fair value of the contingent tax, civil and employment liabilities. The fair value of the contingent tax liabilities was determined, at first, based on the appraisal of external consultants, who attributed to these processes an average probability of loss. Then, the Management measured the contingencies considering the premises of the programs of fiscal recovery promoted from time to time by the State and Federal Governments, which is the amount that the counterparties would be willing to liquidate from the existing debts. On December 31, 2010, there was no balance of accumulated realization for such liabilities;

(g) Refers to the effect of the deferred taxes on the adjustments (a) until (f) presented above and the effect of the deferred taxes on the difference between the accounting and tax goodwill; and

(h) Refers to the corresponding entry of the adjustments (a) until (g) in the shareholders equity.

The remaining goodwill generated in the relation of exchange of shares with Sadia includes, in addition to the controlling goodwill, the future benefits expected from the synergy of the transactions of the companies.

The goodwill for tax purposes, generated in the operation, corresponds to R$3,594,467. The Management of the Company believes that the goodwill originating from that acquisition is deductible for tax purposes.

Sadia contributes with a net revenue of R$5,241,673 and net income of R$313,463 as from the date of acquisition until December 31, 2009, for the results of the Company. If the merger had occurred on January 1, 2009, the Management estimates that the consolidated net revenue would be approximately R$20,937,655 and the net income of the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2009 would be approximately R$225,276.

The Company recorded in the result of the year ended on December 31, 2010 the portion corresponding to the depreciation of the surplus in the value of the fixed assets in the amount of R$54,694 (R$32,871 from July 8, 2009 to December 31, 2009), in other operating expenses in the parent company and in the cost of sales in the consolidated statement.

The business combination with Sadia is still being reviewed by the Administrative Council for Economic Defense (CADE"). On July 7, 2009, the Management of the Company and of Sadia entered into a Transaction Reversibility Preservation Agreement ("APRO") for the purpose of ensuring the reversibility of the operation until the final decision to be stated by CADE, by means of actions that maintain the competition during the assessment of the competitive effects of the merger. The results of Sadia started to be consolidated in the Company as from the date of the merger.

The financial statements of the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2010 do not reflect impacts on possible corporate reorganizations, which can only be assessed after the approval by CADE.

On June 29, 2009, the Commission of the European Communities (European antitrust authority) approved the transaction.

On September 19, 2009, CADE authorized the coordination of the activities of the Companies aimed for the foreign market in the segment of unprocessed meat.

On January 20, 2010, CADE authorized the Company and its subsidiary Sadia to carry out joint transactions pertaining to the acquisition of unprocessed bovine meat and sale of the output of unprocessed meat in general, in Brazil and abroad, and the negotiation and acquisition of inputs and services.

As disclosed in the Relevant Fact of June 30, 2010, the Economic Monitoring Office ( SEAE), of the Ministry of Finance, published the opinion that deals with the corporate transaction involving BRF and its subsidiary Sadia, and recommended to CADE that the merger should be approved with restriction, suggesting two alternatives that could be accepted by CADE or not.

In connection with the association between Sadia and the Company, there was a primary public distribution of 115,000,000 shares with a supplementary lot of 17,250,000 according to note 27.3.

12. BIOLOGICAL ASSETS

The group of biological assets of the Company is composed of living animals separated by the categories: poultry, swine and bovine. These animals were separated into consumable and for production.

The animals classified in the subgroup of consumables are those intended for slaughtering to produce unprocessed meat and/or manufactured and processed products; while they do not reach the weight adequate for slaughtering, they are considered to be immature. The processes of slaughtering and production occur in sequence over a very short time period, and so only the living animals transferred for slaughtering in refrigerators are classified as mature.

The animals classified in the subgroup of production (matrixes) are those that have the function of producing other biological assets; while they do not reach the age of reproduction they are classified as immature, and when they are able to initiate the reproductive cycle, they are classified as mature.

In the measurement of the biological assets at fair value, the Company adopted the model of discounted cash flow. At first, the rate of discount used was the weighted average cost of capital (WACC), which was then adjusted to reflect the specific risk of the asset in question, by means of a mathematical model of average return on assets (WARA), as follows:

	12.31.10	12.31.09	01.01.09
Cost of nominal owners' equity	11.10	11.54	12.37
Projected inflation rate USA	1.85	1.99	2.27
Cost of actual owners' equity	9.08	9.37	9.88
Actual WACC	6.93	6.94	6.83
WARA discount rate:
Animals for slaughtering	6.00	5.75	6.10
Animals for production	6.90	7.30	6.70

In the opinion of the Management, the fair value of the biological assets is substantially represented by the cost of formation especially due to the short life cycle of the animals and due to the fact that a significant portion of the profitability of our products derives from the manufacturing process, not from the obtainment of unprocessed meat (raw materials / slaughter). This opinion is supported by a report of appraisal of fair value prepared by an independent specialist, which assessed an immaterial difference between the two methodologies. Therefore, the Management maintained the registration of the biological assets at formation cost.

The quantities and the accounting balances per category of biological asset are presented below:

The costs of the breeding animals are depreciated using the straight-line method for a period from 15 to 30 months.

The acquisitions of biological assets of (non-current) production occur when there is the expectation that the production plan cannot be met with its own assets and, as a rule, this is the acquisition of immature animals in the beginning of the life cycle.

The acquisitions of biological assets for slaughtering (poultry and pork) are represented by poultry of one day and pork of up to 22 kilos, which are subject to the management of a substantial part of the agricultural activity by the Company.

The increase by reproduction of the biological assets classified in the current assets is related to eggs from assets of production.

13. ASSETS HELD FOR SALE

The Board of Directors of the Company, on February 19, 2010, approved a plan of disposal of assets that were not being used in the operations.

Additionally, it approved the plan of sale of a real estate located in the city of São Paulo with its corresponding buildings. The accounting balance of that group of assets corresponds to R$45,414. The Management believes that the sale will occur in the next fiscal year.

The balances rollforward are presented below:

The items transferred to the fixed assets refer to the houses built in the city of Lucas do Rio Verde, in the State of Mato Grosso. The initial plan of the Management was to dispose of those units to employees of the Company. Then, because of the turnover of personnel and to guarantee the availability of housing in the region, the Management decided to cancel the plan of sale.

14.1 ICMS Value-added Tax:

Due to its export activity, domestic sales and investments in fixed assets are subject to reduced tax rates and, the Company accumulates credits that are offset with debits generated in sales in the domestic market or transferred to third parties.

The Company has ICMS credit in the states of Mato Grosso do Sul, Paraná, Santa Catarina, Minas Gerais and Rio Grande do Sul, for which Management understands that realization is uncertain and, therefore, formed full provision for loss of these credits as shown in the table above.

14.2 Income tax and social contribution:

These correspond to withholdings at source on financial investments, prepayments of income tax and social contribution, and on the reception of interest on shareholders equity by the parent company, realizable through offsetting with federal taxes and contributions payable.

14.3 PIS and COFINS:

PIS (Contribution to the Social Integration Program) and COFINS (Contribution for Funding of Social Welfare Programs) basically originate from credits on purchases of raw materials used in the production of exported products or of products whose sale is taxed at the zero rate, such as those of UHT and pasteurized milk and sales to the Manaus Free Zone. The recovery of these receivables can be achieved by means of offsetting with domestic sale operations of taxed products, with other federal taxes or compensation claims.

For the accumulated PIS and COFINS credits, the Company adopts the procedure of legal action aimed at accelerating the analysis process of applications for repayment of these contributions already filed, which are under supervision for the release of new amounts.

The management has been conducting studies for the development of plans that allow the use of the other credits in the operations and there is no expectation of losses in their recovery.

15.2 Estimated time of realization:

Deferred tax assets related to provisions for contingencies will be realized as the lawsuits are resolved and there are no estimates for the expected time of realization; thus, they are classified as non-current. The Company considers that deferred tax assets resulting from temporary differences of employee benefits will be realized at the payment of the projected obligations.

The deferred tax assets originating from tax losses carryforward and negative basis of social contribution are expected to be realized as set forth below:

	BR GAAP	BR GAAP e IFRS
	Parent company	Consolidated
Year
2011	21,236	79,358
2012	22,638	84,599
2013	24,347	90,984
2014	25,955	96,992
2015	26,934	100,652
2016 onwards	117,202	328,797
	238,312	781,382

In assessing the likelihood of the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets depends on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences are deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected taxable income and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income, management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced.

The taxable income, current and deferred income tax from subsidiaries abroad is presented below:

Current income taxes benefit (expense) of subsidiaries abroad	(13,941)	(4,293)
Deferred income taxes benefit (expense) of subsidiaries abroad	773	7,592

The Company determined that the total profit recorded in the books of its wholly-owned subsidiary Crossban will not be redistributed. Such resources will be used for investments in the subsidiary, and thus no deferred income taxes were recognized. The total of undistributed earnings corresponds to R$928,885 as of December 31, 2010 (R$898,168 as of December 31, 2009).

As a result of the merger of the wholly-owned subsidiary Perdigão Agroindustrial S.A. on March 9, 2009, the Company recorded a loss of R$132,036 related to deferred tax assets (associated to tax losses carryforward and negative base of social contribution)

The Brazilian income tax returns are subject to a 5-year statute of limitation period, during which the tax authorities might audit and assess the company for additional taxes and penalties, in case inconsistencies are found. Subsidiaries located abroad are taxed in their respective jurisdictions, according to local regulations.

The variation of the balance in the year 2009 occurred due to the merger of the wholly-owned subsidiary Perdigão Agroindustrial S.A. on March 9, 2009, while the increase in the year 2010 was mainly due to the regularization of the balance of labor contingencies of Eleva Alimentos S.A.

On June 30, 2009, the Company and Unilever Brasil, members of UP! Alimentos Ltda, entered into an amendment to the shareholders agreement valid as from July 1, 2009. The members decided to change certain rules of governance of the corporation, thereby conferring on Unilever Brasil certain additional rights and obligations. Therefore, in spite of the maintenance of a share of 50% in UP, the Company failed to share the control in the investee and, in consequence, started to measure the investment using the equity method, thereby abandoning the practice of proportional consolidation. The consolidated balances presented in the fiscal year ended on January 1, 2009 include the balances of the investee.

K&S Alimentos S.A. results from a joint venture between the subsidiary Sadia and Kraft Foods Brasil and, therefore, became an indirect subsidiary of the Company as from July 8, 2009. For this reason, no comparative balance was presented on January 1, 2009.

The increases related to construction in progress are represented substantially by expansion projects of industrial units, mainly in Lucas do Rio Verde, Uberlândia, Toledo, Vitória do Santo Antão and Carambeí plants in the amount of R$301,028 and R$311,324 in 2010 and 2009, respectively. The remaining investments are concentrated in productive improvements.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company capitalized interests in the amount of R$18,435 (R$56,674 in December 31, 2009). The interest rate utilized to determine the amount to be capitalized was 7.74%.

The decreases in property, plant and equipment are related to disposals of properties, mainly farms, decreases by obsolescence and adjustments related to the acquired company.

On December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had no commitments assumed related to acquisition and/or construction of properties.

Amortizations of loyalty of integrated businesses and relationship with suppliers are recognized in net income in the cost of sales, while software amortization is recorded according to its use, where the alternatives are cost of sales, administrative or business expenses.

Trademarks in intangible assets derive from the business combination with Sadia and are considered assets with indefinite useful life as they are expected to contribute toward the Companys cash flows indefinitely.

The goodwill presented above is supported by appraisal report, after allocation in the assets in use identified.

The value of goodwill and the value of intangible assets with indefinite useful life (trademarks and patents) allocated by cash-generating unit, are presented in note 6.

The Company conducted the test of reduction to the recoverable value of assets based on fair value in use that was determined by a discounted cash flow model, in accordance with level of allocation of goodwill and intangibles to the group of cash generating units.

Discounted cash flows were prepared with a basis on the multi-annual budget (2011-2015) of the Company and growth projections up to 2020 (9% per annum up to 16% per annum), which in turn, is based on historical experiences and market projections of government agencies and associations, such as the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the Brazilian Association of the Pork Production and Exportation Industry (ABIPECS), the Brazilian Pullet Producer Association (APINCO) and others. In the opinion of Management, the use of periods that exceed those quoted (5 years) in the preparation of discounted cash flows is adequate, as it reflects the estimated time of use of the groups of assets.

Management adopted the assumptions presented in the table below in the preparation of the discounted cash flows:

	2011	2012	2013	2014	2015	2016 - 2020
GDP Brazil - CENTRAL BANK	4.20%	4.80%	4.80%	4.30%	4.20%	4.00%
Global GDP - IMF	3.40%	3.60%	3.70%	3.70%	3.70%	3.50%
IPCA	4.70%	4.60%	4.60%	4.60%	4.60%	4.60%
CPI - FMI	1.00%	1.40%	1.60%	1.70%	1.80%	2.50%
SELIC	11.79%	10.20%	8.80%	8.50%	8.50%	8.50%
Cost of own capital	15.00%	-	-	-	-	-
Nominal WACC	12.80%	-	-	-	-	-
Real WACC	7.80%	-	-	-	-	-

Based on Management analyses performed during the fourth quarter 2010, no adjustments for reduction of the balances of the assets to recoverable value were identified.

The rates presented above do not consider any tax effect (pre-tax).

In addition to the above mentioned recovery analysis, Management drew up a sensitivity analysis considering the variations in the EBITDA margin and in the nominal WACC as presented below:

EBITDA margin	Changes — -3.00%	-1.50%	-	-
WACC	-	-	11.30%	14.30%

In none of the scenarios considered did the company determine the need for formation of provision for recoverable value of the intangible assets with indefinite useful life.

(*)Weighted average maturity date in years.

21.1. Working capital

Rural credit : The Company and its subsidiaries have rural credit facilities with several commercial banks that, according to a Federal Government program, offer loans as an incentive to rural activities. The funds originating from this financing facility are used as working capital.

PROCER Credit facilities of BNDES : Through PROCER, BNDES grants operating credit facilities to help Brazilian agribusiness companies and agricultural companies.

Industrial credit notes : We issue Industrial Credit Notes, receiving credits from official funds (Fundo de Amparo ao Trabalhador) and from the Fundo Constitucional de Financiamento do Centro-Oeste. The notes have maturity periods of up to five years, maturing between 2011 and 2014. These notes are guaranteed by a pledge of machinery and equipment and real estate mortgages.

21.2. BNDES, FINEM, loan facilities of development banks and another secured debts

The Company and its subsidiaries have various outstanding obligations with the BNDES. The loans were executed for the acquisition of machinery, equipment and expansion of productive facilities. The principal and the interest of the FINEM loans are paid in monthly installments, maturing between 2011 and 2015, and are guaranteed by a pledge of equipment and facilities and mortgage on the property owned by the Company. The amounts of these loans are indexed by the UMBNDES basket of currencies, which is composed of the currencies in which BNDES obtains its resources. The impact of interest reflects the daily fluctuation of the currencies that form the basket.

PESA : Sadia has a loan facility obtained through the Special Program for Asset Recovery subject to the variations of the IGPM plus interest of 9.89% per year, guaranteed by endorsements and liens of government debt securities.

21.3. Fiscal incentives

State Programs for Financing with Fiscal Incentive : Under the terms of these programs, we were granted credit proportional to the payment of ICMS generated by investments in the construction or expansion of industrial facilities in these states. The credit facilities have a term of 20 years and fixed or variable interest rates based on the IGPM plus a margin.

21.4. Export credit facilities

Pre-payment of exports : Generally denominated in US dollars, maturing between 2011 and 2013. The export prepayment credit facilities are pegged to the LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) of three and six months plus spread. Under the terms of each one of these credit facilities, the Company receives loans guaranteed by accounts receivable relating to exports of our products to specific customers. The credit facilities are generally guaranteed by BRF - Brasil Foods S.A. The main obligations of these contracts include limitations of guarantees, takeovers, and in a number of cases, financial obligations.

Business loan facilities : Indebtedness under the terms of these credit facilities is denominated in US dollars and maturities range from one to four years. Business loan facilities yield interest at the LIBOR rate plus a margin with quarterly, semi-annual and annual payments. Under the terms of each one of these credit facilities, the Company receives loans used in raw material imports and in other working capital requirements. The credit facilities are generally guaranteed by BRF - Brasil Foods S.A. The main obligations under the terms of these contracts include limitations on takeovers and sales of assets.

Credit facilities of BNDES - Exim : The Company has some credit facilities provided by BNDES for export financing with several commercial banks acting as intermediaries. These resources are pegged to the TJLP with maturity in 2012. Settlement occurs in the local currency without the risk associated with foreign exchange rate variation.

Advances on exchange contracts : Advances on exchange contracts (ACCs) are obligations with commercial banks, where the principal is settled through exports of products, as shipped.

24. SHARE BASED PAYMENTS

On March 30, 2010, the participants of a general meeting of shareholders approved the stock option plan for officers of the Company and of its subsidiaries, consisting of two instruments: (i) stock option plan, granted annually to the beneficiary and (ii) additional stock option plan, optional for the beneficiary, who may adhere with part of their profit-sharing money. The basis of the vesting conditions will be the attainment of effective results and valuation of the Companys business.

The plan includes shares issued by the Company up to the limit of 2% of the total stock, and its purpose is to: (i) attract, retain and motivate the beneficiaries, (ii) create value for shareholders, and (iii) encourage the view of entrepreneur of the business.

The plan is managed by the Board of Directors, within the limits established in the general guidelines of the plan and in the applicable legislation, which are disclosed in detail in the Companys Reference Form.

The strike price of the options is determined by the Board of Directors and is equivalent to the average amount of the closing price of the share at the last twenty trading sessions of the Sao Paulo Stock Exchange, prior to the grant date, restated monthly by the variation of the Amplified Consumer Price Index (IPCA) between the grant date and the month prior to the remittance of the option exercise notice by the beneficiary.

The vesting period during which the participant cannot exercise the purchase of the shares is 3 years and will observe the following deadlines from the grant date of the option:

i. up to 1/3 of the total options may be exercised after one year;

ii. up to 2/3 of the total options may be exercised after two years; and

9 8

iii. all the options may be exercised after three years.

After the vesting period and within no more than five days from the grant date, the beneficiary will lose the right to the unexercised options.

To satisfy the exercise of the options, the Company may issue new shares or use shares held in treasury.

The breakdown of the options granted in the period is shown below:

Date — Grant date	Beginning of the Year	End of the Year	Number of shares granted	Fair value option granted	Strike price — Upon granting	Updated by IPCA	Quotation — Share on 12.31.10
05.03.10	05.02.11	05.02.15	1,540,011	7.77	23.44	24.19	27.24
07.01.10	06.30.11	06.30.15	36,900	7.93	24.75	25.43	27.24

The weighted average of strike prices of the options is twenty-four Brazilian Reais and twenty-one cents (R$ 24.21), and the weighted average of the remaining contractual term is 53.8 months.

On December 31, 2010, the Company recognized in shareholders equity the fair value of the options in the amount of R$ 4,826 in contra account to net income for the period of the parent company.

The fair value of the stock options was measured indirectly using the Black-Scholes pricing model, based on the following assumptions:

	12.31.10
Option expected term:
Exercise in the 1st year	3.0 years
Exercise in the 2nd year	3.5 years
Exercise in the 3rd year	4.0 years
Risk-free interest rate	6.6%
Volatility	41.0%
Dividends expected on shares	1.1%
Expected inflation rate	5.0%

24.1. Expected period

The lifetime of the option expected by the Company, representing the period in which it is believed that the options will be exercised and was determined under the assumption that the beneficiaries will exercise their options at the limit of the maturity period.

24.2. Risk-free interest rate

The Company uses as a risk-free interest rate the NTN-B (National Treasury Bond) available on the date of calculation and with maturity equivalent to the life of the option.

24.3. Volatility

The estimated volatility took into account the weighting of the trading history of the Company and of similar companies in the market, considering the unification of Perdigão and Sadia under code BRFS3.

24.4. Expected dividends

The percentage of dividends used was obtained with a basis on the average payment of dividends per share in relation to the market value of the shares, for the past four years.

24.5 Expected inflation rate

The expected inflation rate is determined based on estimated INPC by Central Bank of Brazil, accumulated between the closing date of financial statements and the exercise date of the vested options.

On March 31, 2010, the shareholders of BRF - Brasil Foods S.A. approved, under the terms of the Association Agreement and of the stock option plan of Sadia, the migration of the options granted and not yet exercised by executives, before the association, to a new plan assumed by the Company, and that will maintain all the characteristics and conditions of the previous plan.

The breakdown of the options granted and outstanding on December 31, 2010 of this plan is shown below:

Cycles	Date — Grant date	Beginning of the year	End of the year	Quantity converted share based on BRF shares — Options granted	Outstanding options	Price of converted share based on BRF shares — Upon granting	Updated by INPC	Quotation — Share on 12.31.10
2006	09.26.06	09.26.09	09.26.11	936,306	262,007	21.35	26.95	27.24
2007	09.27.07	09.27.10	09.27.12	1,329,980	658,340	37.70	45.33	27.24

The pricing modal adopted and the assumptions related to definition of expected term, volatility of the share, expected dividends and inflation are the same adopted by the parent company.

The weighted average of strike prices of the options is thirty-seven Brazilian Reais and seventy-four cents (R$37.74) and the weighted average of the remaining contractual period is 15.1 months. On December 31, 2010, all 920,317 outstanding stock options are exercisable.

The subsidiary Sadia recognized the fair value of the options in the amount of R$1,265 (R$3,807 on December 31, 2009) in the account of other noncurrent liabilities on December 31, 2010.

The offsetting cost was recognized in net income for the period, under the heading of administrative expenses, totaling reversal of expense of R$2,542 in the period ended December 31, 2010 (R$4,311 of reversal of expense in the period from July 8, 2009 to December 31, 2009).

Also during the second half of 2010, the executives of Sadia exercised the right acquired referring to stock options granted previously, in the total quantity of 79,800 shares, for the total amount of R$1,713, with average price of twenty-one Brazilian Reais and forty-seven cents (R$21.47).

25.1. Supplementary retirement plan

25.1.1. PSPP

Perdigão Sociedade de Previdência Privada (PSPP) was created in April 1997, sponsored by the Company and its subsidiaries (except for Sadia).

The purpose of PSPP is the management of supplementary plans of benefits of retirement for the employees of the sponsors. PSPP manages two retirement plans. Plan I, which is closed to new adhesions, and Plan II, which has been in operation since April 1, 2009.

In both plans, the contributions are made on a 1 to 1 basis (the contributions of the sponsor are equal to the basic contributions of the participants), and the actuarial calculations are made by independent actuaries, on a yearly basis, according to the rules in force.

Should the participant end the employment relationship with the sponsor, the balance formed by the contributions of the sponsor not used for the payment of benefits, will form a fund of overage of contributions that may be used to compensate the future contributions of the sponsor. The asset presented in the balance of the fund of reversion amounts to R$4,102 (R$251 on December 31, 2009) and was recorded by the Company in the other rights item.

Although the plans offered by PSPP are basically of defined contribution, there is a small portion of defined benefits, as presented in the schedule above. The demographic data of the plan are presented below:

	Plan I	Plan II	Plan I	Plan II

The benefit of supplementation is adjusted on a yearly basis at the National Consumer Price Index (INPC).

The actuarial regime adopted is that of capitalization for supplementation of retirements and pensions and simple sharing for the supplementations of sick pay. The contribution of Sadia is made through a percentage that applies to the payroll of the active participants, according to the cost plan prepared on yearly basis by independent actuaries and approved by the Deliberative Council of Attilio Francisco Xavier Fontana Fundation.

According to the bylaws of the Foundation, the sponsoring company is jointly and severally liable for the obligations contracted by the entity with its participants and dependents.

As from January 1, 2003, the subsidiary Sadia started to offer a benefit plan in the modality of defined contribution managed by an open-ended entity of supplementary social security, for all the employees admitted by Sadia and its subsidiaries. The funding of the plan is proportional in relation to the basic monthly contribution (mandatory), whose portion of the subsidiary is equal to that made by the employee according to a scale of contribution based on salary ranges, which vary from 1.5% to 6% of the respective remuneration, in accordance with the ceiling of contribution that is updated every year. The contributions made by Sadia in the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2010 amounted to R$2,583 (R$1,448 since July 8, 2009 until December 31, 2009), on that date the plan had 1,501 participants 1,566 participants on December 31, 2009).

26. PROVISION FOR TAX, CIVIL AND LABOR

The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in certain legal proceedings arising from the regular course of business, which include civil, administrative, tax, social insurance and labor lawsuits.

The Company classifies the risk of adverse decisions in the legal suits as remote, possible or probable. The provisions recorded by the Company in its consolidated financial statements relating to such proceedings fairly reflect the probable losses as determined by the Companys management, based on legal advice and for which the amount of probable losses is known or can be reasonably estimated.

The Company is involved in certain judicial proceedings for which the amount of probable losses is not known or cannot reasonably be estimated, especially in the civil area. The Company, with the assistance of its legal counsel, monitors the course of these claims and classifies the probability of losses in such cases as possible or remote.

The Companys management believes that the recorded provision for contingencies, according to CVM Deliberation No. 489/05 is sufficient to cover eventual losses related to its legal proceedings.

CPMF over export revenues : BRF registered a provision for contingency in the amount of R$14,026 (R$22,745 as of December 31, 2009) regarding a judicial proceeding for the non-payment of the provisory contributions on financial activities (CPMF) charged on the income from exports. The Companys lawsuit is currently at the Third Region Federal Court of Appeals (TRF), pending decision of an appeal.

ICMS : BRF is mainly involved in administrative and judicial tax disputes associated with the register of ICMS tax credits on certain transactions, such as the acquisition of consumption materials and the register of tax credits with monetary correction. The provision amounts to R$34,085 (R$34,075 as of December 31, 2009).

The subsidiary Sadia is involved in several administrative proceedings regarding ICMS, in a total amount of R$32,667 (R$30,376 as of December 31,2009), mainly associated to customs clearance processes, debits arising from accessory obligations and register of credits on consumption materials.

26.1.2. Labor

The Company is defendant in several labor claims in progress, mainly related to overtime and salary inflation adjustments for periods prior to the introduction of the Brazilian Real, illnesses allegedly contracted at work and work-related injuries and others. The labor suits are mainly in the lower courts, and for the majority of the cases a decision for the dismissal of the pleadings has been granted. None of these suits are individually significant. The Company recorded a provision based on past history of payments. Based on the opinion of the Companys management and its legal counsel, the provision is sufficient to cover probable losses.

1 12

26.1.3. Civil, commercial and others:

Civil contingencies are mainly related to lawsuits referring to traffic accidents, moral and property damage, physical casualties and others. The civil actions are mostly in the lower courts, in the evidentiary phase, depending on confirmation or absence of the Companys guilt.

26.2. Contingencies and possible losses:

The Company is involved in other tax, civil, labor and social security contingencies, for which losses have been assessed as possible, based on the analysis of Companys management and its legal counsels.

The tax contingencies amounted to R$3,523,675 (R$2,896,378 as of December 31, 2009), of which R$578,493 (R$578,493 as of December 31, 2009) relate to the corresponding fair value estimate resulting from the business combination with Sadia (refer to note 7), according to paragraph 23 of CVM Deliberation No. 580/09. The most relevant aspects associated to the matter are listed below;

Profits earned abroad : On October 3, 2008, the subsidiary Perdigão Agroindustrial S.A. (merged on March 9, 2009) was assessed by the Internal Revenue Service which alleges the lack of collection of income tax and social contribution on profits earned by subsidiaries established abroad in 2003 and 2004, in the total amount of R$164,800 as of December 31, 2009 (R$155,763 as of December 31, 2008). The probability of loss related to this case has been assessed as possible based on the fact that the subsidiary abroad is subject to full taxation in the country in which it is based and this determination is protected by the treaty signed between Brazil and Austria to avoid double taxation. A temporary favorable decision was granted to the Company, thus the estimated outcome is still considered possible.

ICMS : t he Company is involved in several administrative and judicial proceedings related to ICMS tax credits on the acquisition of essential products with a reduced tax burden (cesta básica) in the amount of R$388,913 (R$255,803 as of December 31,2009); register of ICMS tax deemed credits in the amount of R$10,808 (R$82,043 as of December 31,2009); ICMS tax benefits granted by certain states (Guerra fiscal) in the amount of R$1,057,311 (R$877,053 as of December 31, 2009) and R$564,987 (R$350,678 as of December 31,2009) related to other cases. Company believes that the related leading-case related to essential products can be settled during year 2011.

PIS and COFINS on the payment of interest on shareholders equity : the Company has filed a lawsuit to challenge the levy of the PIS and COFINS taxes on the payment of interest on shareholders equity with respect to the 2002-2008 period for the PIS tax and to the 2004-2008 period for the COFINS tax at a total amount of R$43,895 (R$41,364 as of December 31, 2009).

37. NEW RULES AND PRONOUCEMENTS NOT ADOPTED

The interpretations and amendments to the rules existent below, applicable to the following accounting periods, were published by IASB and its application to the financial statements of the Company to be filed with CVM (the Brazilian Securities Commission) only if there is a Deliberation by that agency, therefore, there was no anticipated adoption of these rules.

IAS 12 deferred taxes:

On December 2010, IASB issued a review of rule IAS 12. The amendment addresses aspects related to the determination of the manner expected of recovery of the deferred income tax when the ownership of the investment is measured by the model of fair value of IAS 40. This rule is effective for the fiscal years starting on or after January 1, 2012. The Management of the Company does not predict impacts resulting from the adoption of that amendment to its financial statements.

IFRS 9 financial instruments:

On October 2010, IASB issued a review of rule IFRS 9. The amendment to rule IFRS 9 introduced new requirements for the classification and measurement of financial assets. The rule will apply as from January 1, 2013. The company is assessing the effects of the application of that rule and possible differences in relation to IAS 39.

IFRIC 19 Termination of the financial liabilities with property instruments:

On November 2009, IFRIC issued interpretation 19. The interpretation explained the recording by an entity when the periods for a financial liability are renegotiated and result in the issuance by the entity of property instruments to a creditor of the entity to terminate all or part of the financial liability (conversion of the debt). This requires that a gain or loss must be acknowledged in the result, which is measured as the difference between the book value of the financial liability and the fair value of the property instruments issued. If the fair value of the financial instruments issued cannot be measured in a reliable manner, the property instruments must be measured to reflect the fair value of the terminated financial liability. The Company is assessing the possible effects that may result from the adoption of this statement and one does not expect the existence of a significant impact on the statements of the Company or controller. This statement will apply to the financial statements for the fiscal years initiated on or after July 1, 2010.

IFRIC 14 Pre-payments of applications of minimum investments:

On November 2009, IFRIC issued amendments to interpretation 14. The amendments sought to permit the acknowledgment as an asset of some voluntary anticipated payments to minimum contributions to funds. The Company is assessing the possible effects that may result from the adoption of this statement and one does not expect the existence of a significant impact on the statements of the Company. The amendments apply to the financial statements for the fiscal years initiated on or after January 1, 2011.

1 26

IFS 7 Disclosures of transfers of financial assets:

On January 2010, IASB issued changes to IFRS 1 and IFRS 7, which address aspects of disclosure of comparative information of financial instruments. These amendments are effective for yearly periods initiated on/or after July 1, 2010. The Management of the Company understands that the amendments to this interpretation will not affect the financial statements.

IAS 32 Classification of issuance of rights:

On October 2009, IASB issued a review of rule IAS 32, which deals with contracts that will be or may be liquidated by means of property instruments of the entity and establish that rights, options or guarantees to acquire a fixed quantity of shares of an entity for a fixed amount of some currency are property instruments. The amendment to this rule is effective for yearly periods initiated on/or after February 1, 2010. The amendments to this rule shall not impact the financial statements of the Company.

Improvements on IFRSs 2010:

In May 2010, IASB issued a review of rules IFRS 1, IFRS 3, IFRS 7, IAS 1, IAS 27, IAS 34 and IFRIC 13. The amendment to rule IFRS 3 is effective for the yearly periods starting on/or after July 1, 2010. The other changes to the rules are effective for yearly periods starting on/or after January 1, 2011. The Company is assessing the impacts of the adoption of these changes of rules on its financial statements.
