· Iron sulfate in the amount of R$ 7.4 million, replacing aluminum polychloride and iron chloride at the Rodolfo Costa e Silva and Rio Grande WTS, for pricing conditions;

· Hydrogen peroxide in the amount of R$ 7.0 million, as a result of the proliferation of algae and odor at the sewage pumping stations in the Baixada Santista region;

· Expenses with risk contracts for credit recovery, in the amount of R$ 6.9 million. As a result of these contracts, collection initiatives generated an increase of R$ 89.3 million in revenue in 2013;

5.5. Electric power

This item decreased R$ 37.1 million, or 6.3%, from R$ 590.0 million in 2012 to R$ 552.9 million in 2013, mainly due to the average decrease of 55.1% in the Tariff for the Use of Distribution System (TUSD), as a consequence of Provisional Presidential Decree 579/12 and Law 12,783/13. The reduction in TUSD was partially offset by the average increase of 5.6% in the free market tariffs and the higher consumption in 2013.

5.6. General expenses

General expenses grew by R$ 23.5 million or 3.4%, from R$ 687.5 million in 2012 to R$ 711.0 million in 2013, due to the following:

· R$ 20.5 million in provision related to the transfer to the municipal fund, pursuant to the Service Agreement with the São Paulo Municipal Government, as a result of the increase in revenues.

The increases mentioned above were partially offset by the R$ 14.2 million decrease in expenses for lawsuits.

· Higher recoveries, through agreements for payment in installments, with an increase of R$ 39.5 million.

7.2.1. Monetary variation on liabilities

The effect on the monetary variation on liabilities in 2013 was R$ 254.2 million or 221.6% higher than in 2012, specially:

· Increase of R$ 217.3 million in expenses of exchange rate variation over loans and financing , mainly deriving from the higher appreciation of the US Dollar versus Brazilian Real in 2013 of 14.6%, when compared to the 8.9% appreciation in 2012; partially offset by the depreciation of the Japanese Yen versus Brazilian Real of 5.9% in 2013, compared to a 2.4% depreciation in 2012; and

· R$ 38.1 million increase in monetary variation expenses over domestic loans and financing, as a result of the 17 th and 18 th debenture issue, in February and December 2013, respectively.

7.2.2. Monetary variation on assets

Monetary variation on assets increased by R$ 20.1 million, chiefly due to inflation adjustment on installments agreements held in 2013.

8. Income tax and social contribution

Income tax and social contribution expenses increased by R$ 96.3 million, due to increase in the taxable income in the period.

9. Indicators

9.1. Operating

The water loss ratio continued falling and closed 2013 at 24.4%. In regard of the use of water resources, it is important to stress the decline in real losses (water physically lost, which corresponds to around 65% of the micromeasurement loss ratio), from 22.2% to 20.3% from December 2008 to December 2013. Since 2009, the Corporate Program for Reduction of Water Losses, designed to achieve a billing water loss ratio of 18% in 2020, had received R$ 1.5 billion in investments since 2009 out of the planned amount of R$ 5.9 billion by 2020. In 2013 alone, the Company invested R$ 424 million.

Production volume edged down by 0.2% despite the 1.7% increase in the population served.

10. Loans and financing

At the end of 2013, the Company’s total debt came to approximately R$ 9.5 billion, 39.1% of which denominated in foreign currency. Most of the debt denominated in foreign currency was taken out with international financing institutions, with long maturity terms, amortization schedule diluted in time and low interest rates.

Sabesp uses its own and third-party funds to finance its investment plan, and most of the Company’s debt (60.2%) was contracted with official national and international government agencies and multilateral organisms at a low cost and with long terms. Funds are also raised in the national and international capital market, preferably to manage debt.

Regarding funding for capex, in December 2013, as part of Selection 2012-2013 of the Ministry of Cities, we entered into an agreement totaling R$ 415 million to expand catchment and operating capacity at the Guaraú Water Treatment Station and to implement the R3 Tunnel Reservoir of the same WTS, part of the the Metropolitan Water Program. The total term for this contract is up to 144 months, with a grace period of 36 months and yielding the TJLP long-term interest rate + 1.66 p.a.
