American Depositary Shares representing Common Shares are herein referred to as “Common ADSs,” American Depositary Shares representing Preferred Shares are herein referred to as “Preferred ADSs.” The Firm ADSs and the Option ADSs (as defined below) are herein referred to as the “ADSs.” The Representatives are also representing the several Co-Managers named in Schedule I hereto (together with the International Underwriters, the “Managers”).

The ADSs will be issued by The Bank of New York Mellon (the “ADS Depositary”) pursuant to the amended and restated Common ADSs deposit agreement (the “Common ADS Deposit Agreement”) and the amended and restated Preferred ADSs deposit agreement (the “Preferred ADS Deposit Agreement,” and together with the Common ADS Deposit Agreement, the “ADS Deposit Agreements”), each dated as of February 27, 2012 among the Company, the ADS Depositary, and holders and beneficial owners from time to time of ADSs.

The Company has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form F-3, including a prospectus, relating to the Shares, including in the form of ADSs. The registration statement as amended at the time it becomes effective, including the information (if any) deemed to be part of the registration statement at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430B under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement;” the prospectus in the form first used to confirm sales of Shares, including in the form of ADSs (or in the form first made available to the Underwriters by the Company to meet requests of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Act) is hereinafter referred to as the “Prospectus.” If the Company has filed an abbreviated registration statement to register additional Shares pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Act (the “Rule 462(b) Registration Statement”), then any reference herein to the term “Registration Statement” shall also be deemed to include such Rule 462 Registration Statement.

For the purposes of this Agreement, “Free Writing Prospectus” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Act; “Time of Sale Prospectus” means the preliminary prospectus supplement dated April 3, 2014 together with the Free Writing Prospectuses, if any, identified in Schedule II hereto. “Time of Sale” means 6:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time, the time when sales of the Shares, including in the form of ADSs, were first made. As used herein, the terms “Registration Statement,” “preliminary prospectus supplement,” “Time of Sale Prospectus” and “Prospectus” shall include the documents, if any, incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 6 of Form F-3. The terms “supplement,” “amendment” and “amend” as used herein with respect to the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the preliminary prospectus supplement or any Free Writing Prospectus (permitted under Section 6(d)) shall include all documents subsequently filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are incorporated by reference therein.

In addition to the ADSs sold pursuant to this Agreement, the Company is selling 1,745,689,542 Common Shares and 3,455,677,254 Preferred Shares in Brazil and elsewhere pursuant to an agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Brazilian Underwriting Agreement”), among the Company and the Brazilian Underwriters named therein (the “Brazilian Underwriters”) and, together with the International Underwriters, the “Underwriters”), and the BM&FBOVESPA S.A. – Bolsa de Valores, Mercadorias e Futuros (“BM&FBOVESPA”), as intervening party (the “Brazilian Offering”). The Shares will be sold in Brazil pursuant to a Portuguese-language prospectus, incorporating by reference the Formulário de Referência of the Company (the “Brazilian Prospectus”).

It is understood that Banco BTG Pactual S.A. – Cayman Branch is not a broker-dealer registered with the Commission, and therefore may not make sales of any ADSs or Shares in the United States or to U.S. persons except in compliance with applicable U.S. laws and regulations.

Financial Services, Inc. or Bradesco Securities, Inc. shall be deemed an underwriter and each shall have no obligations to that effect, including no obligation to purchase any Shares or ADSs from the Company.

The parties hereto hereby agree that the benefits of the representations and warranties, agreements in Section 1 and 5 and the benefits of the indemnification and contribution provisions in Section 9 shall inure to the benefit of all of the International Underwriters, as placement agents, in addition to their capacity as underwriters.

(i) The Company shall have furnished to the Representatives a certificate of the Company, signed by the Chairman of the Board or the Chief Executive Officer and the principal financial or accounting officer of the Company, dated the Closing Date, to the effect that the signers of such certificate have carefully examined the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto and this Agreement and that:

(i) the representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement are true and correct on and as of the Closing Date with the same effect as if made on the Closing Date and the Company has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Closing Date;

(ii) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened; and

(j) The Company shall have requested and caused each of KPMG Auditores Independentes and Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Auditores Independentes to have furnished to the Representatives letters, on the date hereof and at the Closing Date, dated respectively as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives, confirming that they are independent accountants within the meaning of the Act and the applicable rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder, and stating in effect that:

(i) in their opinion the audited financial statements included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and reported on by them comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the related rules and regulations adopted by the Commission;

(ii) they have performed certain other specified procedures as a result of which they determined that certain information of an accounting, financial or statistical nature (which is limited to accounting, financial or statistical information derived from the general accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries) set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, including the information set forth under the caption “Summary Historical Financial and Operating Data of Oi” in the Prospectus, agrees with the accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries, excluding any questions of legal interpretation; and

(iii) in the case of KPMG Auditores Independentes, on the basis of a reading of the unaudited pro forma financial statements included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus (the “pro forma financial statements”); carrying out certain specified procedures; inquiries of certain officials of the Company and Portugal Telecom who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters; and proving the arithmetic accuracy of the application of the pro forma adjustments to the historical amounts in the pro forma financial statements, nothing came to the attention of KPMG Auditores Independentes which caused them to believe that the pro forma financial statements do not comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of Rule 11-02 of Regulation S-X or that the pro forma adjustments have not been properly applied to the historical amounts in the compilation of such statements.

References to the Prospectus in this paragraph (i) include any supplement thereto at the date of the letter.

(k) Portugal Telecom shall have requested and caused Deloitte & Associados, SROC, S.A. to have furnished to the Representatives letters, on the date hereof and at the Closing Date, dated respectively as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives, confirming that they are independent accountants with respect to Portugal Telecom within the meaning of the Act and the applicable rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder, and stating in effect that:

(i) in their opinion the audited financial statements and financial statement schedules included in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and reported on by them comply as to form in all material respects with the applicable accounting requirements of the Act and the related rules and regulations adopted by the Commission; and

(ii) they have performed certain other specified procedures as a result of which they determined that certain information of an accounting, financial or statistical nature (which is limited to accounting, financial or statistical information derived from the general accounting records of Portugal Telecom and its subsidiaries) set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, including the information set forth under the caption “Summary Historical Financial and Operating Data of Portugal Telecom” in the Prospectus, agrees with the accounting records of the Company and its subsidiaries, excluding any questions of legal interpretation.

References to the Prospectus in this paragraph (j) include any supplement thereto at the date of the letter.

(l) Subsequent to the Time of Sale or, if earlier, the dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof) and the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto), there shall not have been (i) other than adjustments to the assets and liabilities of Portugal Telecom resulting from the subscription of the shares of the Company as reflected in the “Summary—Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Information of Oi” section in the Prospectus, any change or decrease specified in the letter or letters referred to in paragraphs (i) and (j) of this Section 7 or (ii) any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the condition (financial or otherwise), earnings, business, properties or prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole or Portugal Telecom and its subsidiaries taken as a whole, in each case whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above, is, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Shares or ADSs as contemplated by the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof), the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereof).

(m) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to the Representatives such further information, certificates and documents as the Representatives may reasonably request.

(o) The ADSs are not subject to any proceeding pursuant to which they would be delisted from the NYSE.

Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or facsimile confirmed in writing.

The documents required to be delivered by this Section 7 shall be delivered at the office of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx & Xxxxxxxx, counsel for the Underwriters, at Xxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000, Attention: Xxxxxxxxx X. Xxxxx, on the Closing Date.

8. Reimbursement of International Underwriters’ Expenses. If the sale of the ADSs provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the International Underwriters set forth in Section 7 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section 11 hereof or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by any of the International Underwriters, the Company will reimburse the International Underwriters severally through Banco BTG Pactual S.A. – Cayman Branch on demand for all reasonably and duly documented out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and duly documented fees and disbursements of counsel) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the ADSs.

9. Indemnification and Contribution. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Manager (including, as applicable, in its role as placement agent), the members, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates of each Manager and each

person who controls any Manager within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof): (i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (as originally filed or in any amendment thereof) or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information concerning such Manager furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Manager through you to the Company expressly for use in, the Registration Statement or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in the Registration Statement in connection with such information, which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was required to be stated in such Registration Statement or was necessary to make such information not misleading or (ii) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in any Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, any issuer Free Writing Prospectus, as defined in Rule 433 (“Issuer Free Writing Prospectus”) or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except, with respect to such Time of Sale Prospectus, Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, insofar as any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in, and in conformity with information concerning such Manager furnished in writing by or on behalf of such Manager through you to the Company expressly for use in, such Time of Sale Prospectus, Prospectus or Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact in such Prospectus or Permitted Free Writing Prospectus in connection with such information, which material fact was not contained in such information and which material fact was necessary in order to make the statements in such information, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(b) Each Manager severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity to each Manager, but only with reference to written information relating to such Manager furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Manager through the Representatives specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Manager may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that, for all purposes under this Agreement, (i) the statements set forth in the last paragraph of the cover page regarding delivery of the ADSs and (ii) under the caption “Underwriting:” (A) the list of

Underwriters and their respective participation in the sale of the Shares and ADSs, (B) the sentences related to concessions and reallowances and (C) the paragraph related to stabilization, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids in any Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the several Managers for inclusion in any Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section 9, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party (i) will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of substantial rights and defenses and (ii) will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party’s choice at the indemnifying party’s expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for any fees, costs and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); provided, however, that such counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party’s election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable and duly documented fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company and the Managers severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending same) (collectively “Losses”) to which the Company and one or more of the Managers may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and by the Managers on the other from the offering of the ADSs; provided, however, that in no case shall any International Underwriter (except as may be provided in any agreement among underwriters relating to the offering of the ADSs) be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the ADSs purchased by such International Underwriter hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company and the Managers severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Managers on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by the International Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company on the one hand or the Managers on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Managers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 9, each person who controls a Manager within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each members, partners, director, officer, employee and agent of a Manager shall have the same rights to contribution as such Manager, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

10. Default by an Underwriter. If any one or more International Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of ADSs agreed to be purchased by such International Underwriter or International Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the remaining

International Underwriters shall be obligated severally to take up and pay for (in the respective proportions which the amount of ADSs set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto bears to the aggregate amount of ADSs set forth opposite the names of all the remaining International Underwriters) the ADSs which the defaulting International Underwriter or International Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase; provided, however, that in the event that the aggregate amount of ADSs which the defaulting International Underwriter or International Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase shall exceed 10% of the aggregate amount of ADSs set forth in Schedule I hereto, the remaining International Underwriters shall have the right to purchase all, but shall not be under any obligation to purchase any, of the ADSs, and if such nondefaulting International Underwriters do not purchase all the ADSs, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any nondefaulting International Underwriter or the Company. In the event of a default by any International Underwriter as set forth in this Section 10, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, as the Representatives shall determine in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve any defaulting International Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company and any nondefaulting International Underwriter for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

11. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the ADSs, if at any time prior to such time (i) trading in the Company’s Common Shares or Preferred Shares (including in the form of ADSs) shall have been suspended by the Commission, the New York Stock Exchange, the CVM or the BM&FBOVESPA or trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the BM&FBOVESPA shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on either of such Exchanges, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by Federal or New York State authorities, (iii) a major disruption of settlements of securities, payment or clearance services in the United States or Brazil shall have occurred or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, or other calamity or crisis the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Shares and ADSs as contemplated by the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto).

12. Representations and Indemnities to Survive. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company or its officers and of the International Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any International Underwriter or the Company or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in Section 9 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the ADSs. The provisions of Sections 8 and 9 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

14. Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the International Underwriters, the Company and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the International Underwriters, the Company and their respective successors and the members, partners, directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates of each Manager referred to in Section 9 and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. No purchaser of the ADSs from any International Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

15. Fiduciary Duty. The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the ADSs pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the several International Underwriters, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction each International Underwriter is acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, (iii) no International Underwriter has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such International Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) or any other obligation to the Company except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement and (iv) the Company has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate. The Company agrees that it will not claim that the International Underwriters, or any of them, has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

16. Entire Agreement. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company and the International Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

17. Applicable Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

18. Submission to Jurisdiction. The Company irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York Court over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the offering of the Shares or the ADSs contemplated hereby. The Company irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. To the extent that the Company has or hereafter may acquire any immunity (on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise) from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process with respect to itself or its property, the Company irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, such immunity in respect of any such suit, action or proceeding. The parties hereto each hereby waive any right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

19. Appointment of Agent for Service. The Company hereby irrevocably appoints National Corporate Research, 00 Xxxx 00^xx Xxxxxx, 00^xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000 as its agent for service of process in any suit, action or proceeding described in Section 18 and agrees that service of process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be made upon it at the office of such agent; provided that a successor agent in the U.S. may be appointed by the Company on terms substantially similar to those contained in this Section 19 and reasonably satisfactory to the International Underwriters. The Company waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any other requirements of or objections to personal jurisdiction with respect thereto. The Company represents and warrants that such agent has agreed to act as the Company’s agent for service of process, and each of the Company agrees to take any and all action, including the filing of any and all documents and instruments, that may be necessary to continue such appointment in full force and effect for a period of six years from the date of this Agreement.

20. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

21. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than United States dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the International Underwriters could purchase United States dollars with such other currency in The City of New York on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the

Company with respect to any sum due from it to any International Underwriter or any person controlling any International Underwriter shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than United States dollars, not be discharged until the first Business Day following receipt by such International Underwriter or controlling person of any sum in such other currency, and only to the extent that such International Underwriter or controlling person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase United States dollars with such other currency. If the United States dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such International Underwriter or controlling person hereunder, the Company agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such International Underwriter or controlling person against such loss.

22. Taxes. All payments to be made by the Company under this Agreement shall be paid free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, levies or imposts by Brazil, Portugal, Angola or by any department, agency or other political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, and all interest, penalties or similar liabilities with respect thereto (collectively, “Taxes”). If any Taxes are required by law to be deducted or withheld in connection with such payments, the Company will pay an additional amount (“Additional Amount”) so that the net amount of such payment actually received by the International Underwriters after such withholding or deduction is equal to the amount the International Underwriters would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required; provided, however, that such Additional Amount will not be paid on account of (including any combination of) (i) Taxes which would not have been imposed but for the existence of any present or former connection between any of the International Underwriters and the jurisdiction imposing such taxes, including such International Underwriter having been a resident thereof or being or having been present or engaged in a trade or business therein or having had a permanent establishment therein (other than a connection arising solely from the mere receipt of payments under this Agreement), or (ii) any Taxes imposed or withheld by reason of the failure by the International Underwriters to comply with a request of the payer addressed to the International Underwriters to provide certification, information, documents or other evidence concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the International Underwriters, which is required by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the jurisdiction imposing such taxes as a precondition to exemption from all or part of such taxes.

23. Headings. The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

24. Patriot Act Notice. In accordance with the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the underwriters are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the underwriters to properly identify their respective clients.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, please sign and return to us the enclosed duplicate hereof, whereupon this letter and your acceptance shall represent a binding agreement among the Company and the several International Underwriters.

As Representatives of the several International Underwriters listed in

Schedule I to the Underwriting Agreement referred to below.

Re: Oi S.A. — Public Offering

Ladies and Gentlemen:

A-1

Reference is made to (1) the international underwriting agreement (“International Underwriting Agreement”) and (2) the Brazilian underwriting agreement (“Brazilian Underwriting Agreement,” and, together with the International Underwriting Agreement, the “Underwriting Agreements”). The undersigned understands that there will be a public offering (“Public Offering”) by the several international underwriters named in Schedule 1 to the International Underwriting Agreement (the “International Underwriters”) and the several Brazilian underwriters named in Annex I to the Brazilian Underwriting Agreement (the “Brazilian Underwriters,” and together with the International Underwriters, the “Underwriters”) of [—] shares of common stock (ações ordinárias), no par value (“Common Shares”) of the Company and [—] shares of preferred stock (ações preferenciais), no par value (“Preferred Shares” and, together with the Common Shares, the “Shares”), in each case including in the form of American Depositary Shares as provided in the International Underwriting Agreement (the “ADSs,” and together with the Shares, the “Securities”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings set forth in the International Underwriting Agreement.

In consideration of the Underwriters’ agreement to purchase and make the Public Offering of the Securities, and for other good and valuable consideration receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees with the Representatives, for the benefit of the International Underwriters, that without the prior written consent of the Representatives, on behalf of the International Underwriters, the undersigned will not, during the period ending 90 days after the date of the prospectus relating to the Public Offering (the “Prospectus”), (i) offer, issue, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, as the case may be, relating to, any Shares or ADSs (or any shares or other securities received from Telemar Participações S.A. (“TmarPart”), the direct controlling shareholder of the Company in connection with the transaction described in the Prospectus under the caption “Proposed Business Combination”), or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such Securities (or any shares or other securities received from TmarPart in connection with the transaction described in the Prospectus under the caption “Proposed Business Combination”) (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”),, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers all or a portion of the economic consequences associated with the ownership of any of the Lock-Up Securities or (iii) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of the Securities with the SEC or similar Brazilian regulatory authority for a period of 90 days after the date of the Prospectus. These restrictions do not apply to: (A) transfers of the Lock-Up Securities as a bona fide gift or gifts, provided that the acquiror of the Lock-Up Securities shall execute and deliver to the Representatives a lock-up letter in the form of this paragraph; (B) Shares and ADSs issued upon the conversion of securities or exercise of options, warrants or similar rights, provided that the acquiror of the Lock-Up Securities shall execute and deliver to the Representatives a lock-up letter in the form of this paragraph; (C) grants of employee stock and stock options pursuant to employee plans; (D) transfers of the Lock-Up Securities to any affiliate, shareholder, investment fund or limited partner of the signatory of the Lock-Up Agreements or transfers to trusts for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate family of the undersigned, provided

A-2

that the acquiror of the Lock-Up Securities shall execute and deliver to the Representatives a lock-up letter in the form of this paragraph; (E) transactions related to the Shares or ADSs or other securities acquired in open market transactions after the date hereof; (F) the loan of a certain number of Shares, in order to allow the stabilization of the Shares as provided in the Brazilian stabilization agreement; or (G) the exchange of Securities for TmarPart Securities in connection with the Proposed Business Combination. If the undersigned is an officer or director of the Company, the undersigned agrees that these restrictions also apply to Securities which he/she may acquire in the Public Offering. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the undersigned’s Shares or ADSs except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

[If the undersigned is an officer or director of the Company, (i) the Representatives agree that, at least three business days before the effective date of any release or waiver of the foregoing restrictions in connection with a transfer of Shares or ADSs, the Representatives, on behalf of the Underwriters, will notify the Company of the impending release or waiver, and (ii) the Company has agreed in the International Underwriting Agreement to announce the impending release or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two business days before the effective date of the release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted by the Representatives on behalf of the Underwriters hereunder to any such officer or director shall only be effective two business days after the publication date of such press release. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if (a) the release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer not for consideration and (b) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this letter to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of the transfer.]

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company, and any duly appointed transfer agent for the registration or transfer of the securities described herein, are hereby authorized to decline to make any transfer of securities if such transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Agreement.

The undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement. All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred and any obligations of the undersigned shall be binding upon the successors, assigns, heirs or personal representatives of the undersigned.

The undersigned understands that, (i) if the Company notifies the Representatives in writing before the International Underwriting Agreement becomes effective that it does not intend to proceed with the public offering of the Shares or ADSs, (ii) if the International Underwriting Agreement does not become effective, or (iii) if the International Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination) shall terminate or be terminated prior to payment for and delivery of the ADSs to be sold thereunder, the undersigned shall be released from all obligations under this Agreement. The undersigned understands that the Underwriters are entering into the Underwriting Agreements and proceeding with the Public Offering in reliance upon this Agreement.

A-3

This Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.
