5.1. Payroll and benefits

In 1Q13 payroll and benefits grew R$ 55.5 million or 13.7%, from R$ 406.3 million to R$ 461.8 million, due to the following:

· 6.17% increase in wages since May 2012, with an impact of approximately R$ 33.0 million;

· Provision for vacation with a R$ 4.3 million impact, due to the increases in wages and headcount;

· R$ 5.0 million increase in overtime pay; and

· R$ 9.3 million upturn in the provision for the Defined Benefit Plan, arising from changes in actuarial assumptions.

5.2. Supplies

In 1Q13, expenses with supplies increased by R$ 3.8 million or 9.4%, when compared to the previous year, from R$ 40.5 million to R$ 44.3 million, mostly due to: (i) preventive and corrective maintenance in water and sewage systems, in the amount of R$ 2.0 million; and (ii) R$ 1.0 million higher spending on property and facility upkeep in administrative and operating areas.

5.3. Treatment supplies

Treatment supplies expenses in 1Q13 were R$ 20.3 million or 45.5% higher than in 1Q12, from R$ 44.6 million to R$ 64.9 million. The main factors for this variation were:

Page 4 of 12

· Higher consumption of activated carbon, with an increase of R$ 3.2 million, due to weather and watershed conditions, and a price increase of approximately 11.73%;

· Higher consumption of lime, due to the higher treated volume, associated with the price increase of approximately 7%, leading to a net upturn of R$ 1.7 million;

· Higher consumption of iron chloride, with a net addition of R$ 1.3 million, in order to meet the quality parameters of the treatment of the water resulting from the strong rain in the city of Cubatão; and

· Increase of R$ 8.7 million from the consumption of products, such as: (i) hydrogen peroxide, due to the startup of 2 sewage pumping stations in Guarujá; (ii) sodium hypochlorite as a replacement of chlorine gas, due to the increased efficiency and security related to the use of a less dangerous product; and (iii) chlorine, arising from the increase in turbidity and color at the Guaraú Water Treatment Station.

5.4. Services

In 1Q13 this item decreased R$ 36.3 million or 13.7%, from R$ 265.0 million in 1Q12 to R$ 228.7 million in 1Q13. The main factors were:

· Decrease of R$ 38.3 million, due to the reversal of the provision for expenses, following the end of the partnership with the São Paulo Municipal Government.

· Decline of R$ 4.3 million in expenses with risk credit recovery contracts, due to the discontinuation of these contracts in several Business Units; and

· Decrease in paving services and replacement of sidewalks in the amount of R$ 4.2 million, due to the conclusion of the paving contract with the São Bernardo do Campo Municipal Government, whose services were included in Global Sourcing.

The following services presented increases:

· Preventive and corrective maintenance in the water and sewage systems in the amount of R$ 4.6 million; and

· Increase of R$ 2.0 million due to the new contracts of the Program for the Rational Use of Water – PURA in municipal entities.

5.5. Electric power

In 1Q13, this item decreased R$ 5.5 million, or 3.7%, from R$ 150.3 million in 1Q12 to R$ 144.8 million in 1Q13, due to the average decrease of approximately 25.5% in the Tariff for the Use of Distribution System (TUSD), of the consumption units by the Free Market, as a consequence of Provisional Presidential Decree 579/12 and Law 12,783/13.

5.6. General expenses

In 1Q13 general expenses increased R$ 47.6 million or 28.4%, from R$ 167.8 million in 1Q12 to R$ 215.4 million in 1Q13, due to:

· Provision for lawsuits, in the amount of R$ 24.6 million;

· Agreements for environmental compensation, in the amount of R$ 17.3 million; and

· Provision for payment to the municipal fund pursuant to the Service Agreement with the São Paulo Municipal Government, in the amount of R$ 5.0 million.

5.7. Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization increased R$ 8.7 million or 4.7%, from R$ 186.5 million in 1Q12 to R$ 195.2 million in 1Q13, due to the higher transfer of works to the operating intangible asset in the period.

Page 5 of 12

5.8. Credit write-offs

In 1Q13 credit write-offs decreased R$ 1.4 million or 13.7%, from R$ 38.8 million in 1Q12 to R$ 33.5 million in 1Q13, chiefly due to the lower need for provision.

5.9. Tax expenses

In 1Q13 tax expenses grew R$ 5.1 million or 14.6%, mainly in the municipality of São Paulo, due to: (i) 5.4% adjustment in the Municipal Real Estate Tax (IPTU) by the São Paulo Municipal Government; and (ii) expansion of the Centro Business Unit.

The effect on the monetary variation on liabilities in 1Q13 was R$ 52.1 million higher than in 1Q12, specially:

· Increase in the exchange rate variation on loans and financing, in the amount of R$ 29.6 million, due to: (i) the lower appreciation of the Brazilian Real versus the US Dollar in 1Q13 (1.4%), compared with 2.9% in 1Q12; and (ii) the 10.0% appreciation of the Brazilian Real versus the Yen in 1Q13 (9.0% appreciation in 1Q12);

· Monetary variation on domestic loans and financing increasing by R$ 15.6 million, mainly due to: (i) the increase in debt following the 17 th debenture issue in February 2013; and (ii) the 1.9% IPCA rate variation in 1Q13 compared to the 1.2% variation in the same period in 2012; and

· Expenses relating to lawsuits in the amount of R$ 4.7 million.

7.2. Monetary variation on assets

Monetary variation on assets increased by R$ 17.5 million in 1Q13 over 1Q12, chiefly due to:

· R$ 6.5 million related to the restatement of judicial deposits, arising from the increase in deposits related to contingencies.
