3 Summary of the main accounting practices

a. Short-term investments in the money market

These comprise investments maturing in over 90 days, which are stated at cost plus the related earnings up to the balance sheet date, up to the market value, where applicable.

b. Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable from the telecommunication service costumers are calculated at the tariff rate ruling on the date of service rendering, including credits for services rendered but not billed until the balance sheet date, receivables from network use and receivables from sales of cell phone sets and accessories.

c. Allowance for doubtful accounts

The allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded based on the customer base profile, the aging of past due accounts, the economic scenario and the risks involved in each case. The allowance amount is considered sufficient to cover possible losses on receivables.

d. Inventories

These refer to cell phone sets and accessories, which are stated at the average acquisition cost. A provision was set up to adjust slow-moving and obsolete items balance to the related realizable value.

e. Prepaid expenses

The prepaid expenses are shown at the amount actually disbursed and not yet incurred.

The subsidized sale of cell phone sets to the post-paid system users is deferred and amortized over the duration of the service agreement signed by clients (a minimum 12-month period). The contractual fine applicable to users who cancel their subscriptions or migrate to a prepaid system before the end of their agreements is invariably higher than the subsidy granted on cell phone sales.

Advertising expenses mostly refer to the sponsorship of Formula 1 car race transmission on TV.

f. Investments

The investments in subsidiaries are valued on the equity method, based on the subsidiaries´ shareholders equity, which is determined on the same date, by the same accounting principles used by the parent company.

12


The other investments are shown at cost, and reduced to the realizable value, where applicable. 

g. Property, plant and equipment

The property, plant and equipment items are shown at the acquisition and/or construction cost, net of accumulated depreciation, calculated on the straight-line method, over the useful life of assets involved. Any repair and maintenance costs incurred representing improvement, higher capacity or longer useful life are capitalized, whereas the others are recorded as income for the year.

Interest and other financial charges on financing taken for funding construction work in progress (assets and facilities under construction) are capitalized up to the startup date.

The estimated cost of disassembly of towers and equipment in rented properties are capitalized and amortized over the useful life of these assets.

The long-term assets, especially property, plant and equipment, are periodically reviewed to determine the need for recording a provision for losses on any such items and recovery thereof.

The estimated useful lives of all property, plant and equipment items are regularly reviewed considering technological advances.

h. Intangibles

Intangibles are shown at the acquisition cost net of accumulated amortization. The amortization expenses are calculated on the straight-line method over the duration of the respective contracts, i.e., five years for radiofrequency bands and fifteen years for use authorization.

i. Deferred charges

Included in the deferred charges are pre-operating expenses and financial costs of the required working capital at the subsidiaries´ pre-operating stage, which are amortized in ten years from the date the subsidiaries become operative.

j. Income tax and social contribution

Income tax is calculated based on the income adjusted for legally stipulated additions and exclusions. The social contribution is calculated at the legally stipulated rates applied to pretax income.

13



Based on the Constitutive Reports nos. 0144/2003 and 0232/2003 issued by ADENE – Northeast Development Agency on March 31, 2003, the subsidiary TIM Nordeste S.A. became eligible to fiscal incentive consisting of: (i) 75% reduction of income tax and non-reimbursable surtaxes for a ten-year period, from fiscal 2002 through 2011, calculated based on the exploration income arising from implementation of its installed capacity for rendering digital cellular telephone services; and (ii) reduction of 37.5%, 25% and 12.5% of income tax and non-reimbursable surtaxes for fiscal 2003, 2004-2008 and 2009-2013, respectively, calculated based on the exploration income arising from implementation of its installed capacity for rendering of analogical cellular telephone services. The amount corresponding to previously mentioned fiscal benefit – reduction of income tax – is accounted for as a reduction of the provision for income tax, against a Capital reserve – Fiscal Incentive, under the “Shareholders Equity” of the indirect subsidiary TIM Nordeste S.A.

The deferred income tax and social contribution on accumulated tax losses and temporary differences are valued based on the expected taxable income generation and deducted from the provision for adjustment to the recovery value, set up in accordance with CVM Instruction 371/02. On June 30, 2007 and March 31, 2007, the Company did not recognize any deferred tax assets, because the Company itself and its subsidiaries have historically reported operating losses and unused credits.

k. Loans and financing

Loans and financing include accrued interest to the balance sheet date. The company’s subsidiaries are party to certain derivative instruments related to their Real denominated liabilities with the objective of hedging them against risks associated with unexpected devaluation of the Real in relation to foreign currencies. Additionally, the Company’s subsidiaries have hedge contracts to cover changes in market Income tax is calculated based on the income adjusted for legally stipulated additions and exclusions interest rates. Gains and losses from such operations are recognized in the income statement under the accrual method, based on the contracted rates contracts.

l Provision for contingencies

The provision for contingencies, recorded based on estimates which take into consideration the opinion of the Company’s management and its legal advisors, is updated based on the probable losses and risks at the end of the litigations and possible disclosure in notes to financial statements.

m Assets retirement obligations

The provision for assets retirement obligations from disassembly of towers and equipment in rented properties, recorded against “Property, plant and equipment”, is discounted to present value so it can reflect the best current estimate.

14



n Revenue recognition

Service revenues are recognized as services are provided. Billing is monthly recorded. Unbilled revenues from the billing date to the month end are measured and recognized during the month in which services are provided. Revenues from prepaid telecommunication services are recognized on the accrual basis in the period of utilization. Revenues from the sale of cell phone sets and accessories are recognized as these products are delivered to, and accepted by, end-consumers or distributors.

o. Derivatives

The subsidiaries enter into swap contracts to manage exposure to risk involved in foreign exchange rate and interest rate variations, all accounted for on the accrual basis. Payments made and received are recognized as adjustments to exchange variation.

The derivative contracts are signed with big financial institutions, highly experienced in this field. The subsidiaries do not hold derivative contracts for commercial or speculative purposes.

p. Pension plans and other post-employment benefits

The Company and its subsidiaries record the adjustments connected with the employees’ pension plan obligations according to the rules established by IBRACON´s NPC 26, approved by CVM Deliberation 371, which defines the characteristics of plans, obligations and events (Note 34).

q. Use of estimates

The preparation of quarterly information in conformity with accounting practices adopted in Brazil requires management to make estimates and assumptions concerning the amounts of recorded assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, as well as the estimation of revenues and expenses for the year. The actual results may differ from those estimates.

r. Foreign currency transactions

Transactions in foreign currency are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing at the transaction date. Foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities are translated into Reais using the balance sheet date exchange rate, which is reported by the Brazilian Central Bank. Exchange gains and losses are recognized in the statement of income as incurred.

15



s. Employee profit sharing

The Company and its subsidiaries record a provision for employee profit sharing, based on the targets disclosed to its employees and approved by the Administrative Council. These amounts are recorded as personnel expenses and allocated to profit and loss accounts considering each employee’s cost center.

t. Supplementary information

For additional information purposes, the following is presented: a) Statements of Cash Flow, prepared in accordance with the NPC no. 20 issued by the Institute of Independent Auditors of Brazil – IBRACON, ; and b) Value-Added Statements prepared in accordance with the CFC – Federal Accounting Council - Resolution no. 1010, which approved NBCT 37.

On March 13, 2006, the suit filed by the indirect subsidiary TIM Nordeste S.A. contesting the constitutionality of Law 9.718/98 that increased basis of calculation of taxes involved had a final judgement not subject to further appeal. Accordingly, the collection of PIS and COFINS on revenues not deriving from the Company´s sales was prohibited, and the subsidiary´s management recorded (in the first half of 2006) R$ 52,317 of PIS and COFINS credits, plus the related monetary restatement.

The other subsidiaries await a favorable sentence on a similar suit filed, having not recorded PIS and COFINS credits meanwhile. However, their managements believe on the probability of a favorable sentence, too. The amounts involved in these suits are being calculated.

8 Deferred Income Tax and Social Contribution

The deferred income tax and social contribution can be summarized as follows:

    Consolidated 
   
    06/2007    03/2007 
     
Goodwill paid upon privatization    160,748    197,844 
Provision for maintenance of shareholders´ equity integrity    (106,094)   (130,577)

Short-term portion    (50,450)   (50,450)
     
Long-term portion    4,204    16,817 
     

Merger-generated tax credit

The deferred tax asset represented by the merger-generated tax credit refers to future tax benefit under the restructuring plan started in 2000. As a counterentry to said tax is a special reserve composed of goodwill on shareholders´ equity. The tax is realized ratably to estimated future income, over the duration of the authorization granted, which is due to end by 2008. The goodwill amortization is recorded as “provision for income tax and social contribution”.

In the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, R$ 25,225 of tax benefits were realized in connection with the above mentioned goodwill (R$ 25,225 for the same period in 2006). Also, under the terms of the restructuring plan, the actual tax benefit for each fiscal year will be subsequently capitalized in the name of the controlling shareholder (Note 23-b)

As projected by the Management, the deferred, long-term income tax and social contribution remaining from the merger-generated tax credit will be realized in 2008.

On May 3, 2007, the Administrative Council of TIM Participações S.A. approved a cooperation and support agreement with Telecom Italia S.p.A., valid for 12 months, in the amount of up to euro 14,521 (approximately R$41,000). This agreement is designed to add value to the Company by benefiting from Telecom Italia´s experience to (i) improve the effectiveness and efficiency through internally developed solutions; and (ii) share systems, services, and processes, as well as the best practices in use in the Italian market, which can be easily customized for the Company.
 
(3)     
This refers to development and maintenance of software pieces used in telecommunications service billing.

In April 2007 a group of Italian investors, namely Assicurazioni Generali S.p.A., Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A., Mediobanca S.p.A. and Sintonia S.A., together with Telefônica S.A. a Spain-based international telecommunications operator, agreed to buy the whole capital of Olímpia S.p.A. (who holds approximately 18% of the voting capital of Telecom Italia S.p.A., the Company´s indirect owner) through Telco S.p.A. This acquisition, through which Telco S.p.A. will hold some 23.6% of the voting capital of Telecom Italia S.p.A., is pending approval by the competent authorities in Italy , being due to be completed until the end of 2007. Currently, through their subsidiaries, Telefônica S.A. and Telecom Italia S.p.A. are competitors in certain other than their domestic markets, as for example, in Brazil. However, the agreement referred to above provides for an independent, autonomous management of the groups Telecom Italia and Telefônica.

21



Also, it stipulates that Telefônica will neither participate nor vote in Telco´s general shareholders´ meetings, with the directors to be appointed by Telefônica S.A. being instructed to neither participate nor vote in the Administrative Council´s meetings held to discuss political, administrative and operational resolutions and proposals of companies directly or indirectly controlled by Telecom Italia S.pA., who render services in countries with regulatory and legal limitations on the exercise of Telefônica S.A. voting rights. On June 30, 2007, as the agreement is pending of approval by the brazilian and international competent authorities, the Telefônica group was not considered as the Company´s related party.

These tax benefits are connected with goodwill paid upon privatization of Tele Nordeste Celular Participações S.A.,(merged into TIM Participações S.A. in August 2004) and Tele Celular Sul Participações S.A.(TIM Participações S.A’s former name). This goodwill was recorded against the special goodwill reserve, under “Shareholders’ equity”, being realized ratably to the estimated future income and the time of the concession, which is expected to end by 2008.

New technology implementation

The subsidiaries operate their service network using TDMA and GSM technology into their service network as a complement to current TDMA technology. On June 30, 2007, with the introduction of the GSM technology no provision for devaluation of fixed assets due to obsolescence was deemed necessary, as both technologies are to remain in operation at the companies until 2008, at least. The assets related to TDMA technology have been subject to accelerated depreciation and must be fully depreciated by 2008.

PCS authorizations and radiofrequency

The subsidiaries’ PCS (Personal Communications Services) authorizations are presented by the terms signed in the years from 2001 through 2004 with Anatel, for the exploration of this service. Previously, the subsidiaries TIM Celular S.A. and TIM Nordeste S.A. had been granted a fifteen-year concession for the SMC (Mobile Communication Service), which was changed into authorization for the SMP in 2002. The remaining SMC authorization period corresponds to the remainder of the SMC concession, initially connected with the 800 MHz radiofrequency licensing.

From 2001 through 2004, the subsidiaries were authorized by Anatel to use radio frequency blocs connected with the provision of SMP at 900 MHz and 1800 MHz.

26



Our radiofrequency authorizations for the 800 MHz, 900 MHz and 1800 MHz bands, referring to SMP service provision begin to expire in September 2007 and are renewable for only one 15-year period. The Company´s requests to ANATEL for renewal of these authorizations may be denied, if in ANATEL´s view we are not properly and rationally using the range granted, having seriously and repeatedly violated pertinent legislation, or if the range redistribution is deemed necessary.

21 Provision for Contingencies

The Company and its subsidiaries are party to certain lawsuits (labor, tax, regulatory and civil) arising in the normal course of their business, and have recorded provisions when management understands that the risk of loss is deemed probable, based on the opinion of their legal advisors.

The provision for contingencies is thus composed:

    Parent Company 
   
    06/2007    03/2007 
     
Civil    981    642 
Labor    2,142    2,042

Balance at June 30, 2007    3,123    176,250 
     

Civil contingencies

Several legal and administrative processes have been filed against the Company by consumers, suppliers, service providers and consumer protection agencies, dealing with various issues arising in the regular course of business. It is the Company´s policy to analyze each legal or administrative process to determine whether it involves probable, possible or remote risk of contingencies. In doing so, the Company always takes into account the opinion of lawyers engaged to conduct the processes. The evaluation is periodically reviewed, with the possibility of being modified over the processes due to facts of events such as case law changes.

Consumer lawsuits

Approximately 33,600 individual lawsuits (March 31, 2007 – 26,200) have been filed against the subsidiaries, mostly by consumers claiming for settlement of matters arising from their relationship with the Company. Among these, the allegedly undue collection, contract cancellation, defects of equipment and non-compliance with delivery deadlines stand out. Provisions have been set up for those processes involving probable losses.

Collective actions

There are four collective actions against subsidiaries involving the risk of probable loss, which can be summarized as follows: (i) a suit against TIM Celular S.;A. claiming for the installation of a service unit for personal assistance in Rio Branco, AC.; (ii) a suit against TIM Nordeste S.A. in the state of Pernambuco, questioning the Company´s policy of defective phone replacement, allegedly in disagreement with the manufacturer´s warranty terms; (iii) a suit against TIM Nordeste S.A. in the state of Ceará, claiming for the Company´s obligation to replace cell phone sets which have been the subject of fraud in that state; and (iv) a suit against TIM Nordeste S.A. in the state of Bahia, claiming for annulment of charges on long-distance calls originated and received by Petrolina/PE and Juazeiro/BA, allegedly because of the borderline areas between these two municipalities. No provisions have been recorded for these contingencies, given the obligations involved therein and the impossibility of accurately quantifying the possibility of losses at the current stage of the processes.

33



Other Actions and Proceedings

The indirect subsidiary TIM Nordeste S.A. has been sued by the Federal Audit Court at administrative level with the possibility of being submitted to a court of justice, for allegedly defaulting on payment of R$ 25,000 representing interest and monetary restatement on the second installment due on acquisition the Area 9 (Bahia and Sergipe) license. As the risk of an unfavorable outcome for the Company is deemed only possible by both internal and external advisors, no provision has been set up.

The indirect subsidiary TIM Nordeste S.A. is also defendant in an action filed by the legal services providers, the law firm Mattos & Callumby Lisboa Advogados, in Rio de Janeiro. They claim for success fees allegedly due under a service agreement for filing court injunctions against interest and monetary restatement on purchase prices of Maxitel S.A.´s “Band B”. As the risk of an unfavorable outcome for the Company is deemed possible by both internal and external advisors, no provision has been set up.

Labor contingencies

These refer to claims filed by both former employees in connection with salaries, salary differences and equalization, overtime, variable compensation/commissions, and former employees of service providers who, based on pertinent legislation, claim for the Company´s and/or its subsidiaries´ accountability for labor obligations defaulted on by their outsourced employers.

Labor claims

Of the 1,985 labor suits filed against the Company and its subsidiaries (March 31, 2007 – 1,778), over 65% involve claims against service providers, concentrated on certain companies from São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and Recife.

Still on third parties´ claims, part of these relate to specific projects of service agreement review, often ended in rescission in 2006 and winding up of the companies and termination of employees involved. A further significant portion of contingencies refers to organizational restructuring, among which the discontinuance of the Client Relationship Centers (call centers) in Fortaleza, Salvador and Belo Horizonte, and the termination of 800 own employees and outsourced personnel stand out. All processes involving the risk of loss have been provided for by the Company.

The assessment of possible success of, and amounts involved in, the contingency is periodically reviewed, based on sentences issued during the processes, regulatory changes or modification of case law and higher courts´ abridgements of law.

34



Occupational Accidents

With the enactment of the Constitutional Amendment no. 45/2004, the litigations involving occupational accidents that resulted in claims for damages, previously judged by the State Court began to be judged by the Labor Courts. Given the issues under litigation and the fact that indemnification is determined by arbitration , thus involving high subjectiveness, the decision to set up provisions for these suits was made based on the total estimated losses amounting to some R$ 1,800.

DRT (Regional Labor Offices) and INSS (Nat´l Social Security Institute)

The indirect subsidiary TIM Nordeste S.A. was assessed for R$ 778 by the Regional Labor Office from Minas Gerais, on charges of allegedly irregular engagement of third parties. The risk of loss was deemed probable by the Company´s advisors, and an adequate provision was recorded.

Tax contingencies

IR and CSLL

In 2005, the indirect subsidiary TIM Nordeste S.A. was assessed by the Internal Revenue Secretariat of the State of Minas Gerais for R$ 126,933, for the following reasons: (i) taxation of monetary variations on swap operations and exchange variation on unsettled loans; (ii) a separate fine for default on payment of social contribution on an estimated monthly basis for the year 2002 and part of 2001; (iii) default on payment of corporate income tax on an estimated monthly basis for the year 2002; and (iv) remittance of interest (IRRF) – a voluntary denunciation without payment of arrears charges. These assessments are now being discussed the taxing authorities. Based on its internal and external advisors´ opinion, the Management estimates probable losses on these processes at R$ 32,750. As they refer to income tax and social contribution, had these payments been made on schedule, they would have been recorded as income tax and social contribution, and accordingly, the Company found it correct to record the related provision for contingency against income tax and social contribution expenses.

ICMS

In 2003 and 2004 the subsidiary TIM Celular S.A. was assessed by the Internal Revenue Secretariat of the State of Santa Catarina for R$ 85,114, mainly relating to dispute on the levying of ICMS on certain services provided. The company is currently discussing these assessments with the tax authorities. According to its internal and external lawyers, the probable losses thereon, duly provided for, amount to R$ 2,650.

In October 2006, by adhering to the Santa Catarina State Economic Recuperation Program – Revigorar II, intended to grant amnesty to state tax debtors, the subsidiary TIM Celular S.A. agreed to settle its debt referring to ICMS rate difference on acquisition of phone sets in other states. Consequently, the provision represented by a previous R$ 11,779 escrow deposit was reversed.

Regulatory Contingencies

Due to an alleged default on some SMP’s provisions and quality targets defined under the PGMQ-SMP – General SMP Quality Goals Plan – ANATEL started some procedures for determining Default on Obligations – PADO, involving the subsidiaries.

The subsidiaries have endeavored to avoid being assessed, with arguments, mostly of technical and legal nature, that may contribute to reduce significantly the initial fine charged or event definitively file the PADO, with no sanctions. The related provision was set up based on the amount of fines charged, the risk of loss involved being classified probable (Note 36).

Possible contingencies not provided for

Civil, Labor, Regulatory and Tax-related actions have been filed against the Company and its subsidiaries involving risk of loss that is classified as possible or remote by the management and the Company’s lawyers. No provision has been set up for these contingencies.

The main actions involving risk of loss are described below:

Labor suits

A substantial portion of these suits refers to organization restructuring. Worth mentioning among these is the discontinuance of Client Relationship Centers in Fortaleza, Salvador and Belo Horizonte, which resulted in layoff of approximately 800 own and outsourced employees.

Of the labor suits involving risk of loss, the civil public action filed by the Minas Gerais Department of Labor Justice – 3rd region on allegedly irregular outsourcing practices and collective pain an suffering is worth stressing.

IR and CSLL

On October 30, 200, the indirect subsidiary TIM Nordeste S.A. was assessed by the Internal Revenue Secretariat of the State of Minas Gerais for R$ 331,171 under a single administrative process referring to IRPJ, CSL and a separate fine, for different reasons. Most of the assessment refers to amortization of goodwill determined on a Telebrás System privatization auction and the related tax deductions. Under Law 9.532/97, art. 7, the proceeds of goodwill amortization can be included in the taxable income of a company resulting from merger or split, whereby one company holds investment in the other, and pays for it using the goodwill determined based on the investee´s expected profitability. Also, this is a usual operation performed in accordance with CVM Instruction 319/99. After timely impugnating these assessment notices the Subsidiary now awaits the taxing authorities´ decision on the matter. In March 2007, by means of a Fiscal Information Report, the Recife/PE´s Internal Revenue Secretariat informed TIM that the amounts of IRPJ, CSL and a separate fine totaling R$ 73,027 (principal and separate fine) had been excluded from the assessment notice. As a consequence, this assessment was partially reduced, the discussion on the remainder being transferred to 160 compensation processes. Based on its internal and external lawyers´ opinion, the Company has not set up a provision for the above mentioned processes.

In September 2003 the indirect subsidiary TIM Nordeste S.A. was assessed by the Internal Revenue Secretariat of the State of Ceará for R$ 12,721 referring to: (i) disallowance of R$ 8,402 expenses included in the IRPJ determination for the period from 1999 through 2001; (ii) R$ 3,208 of differences in CSLL payments for the years from 1998 through 2001; (iii) differences of R$ 334 and R$ 777, respectively, in the payment of PIS and COFINS for the years from 1998 through 2002. The Company filed an impugnation and a voluntary appeal against this assessment.

PIS and COFINS

In 2004, the subsidiary TIM Nordeste S.A. was assessed in connection with PIS and COFINS due on exchange variation arising from revenue generated in 1999. Both assessment notices amounted to R$ 30,913. Because this is a controversial matter involving interpretation of applicable legislation, a provision was set up, in 2004, for the same amount. On March 13, 2006 a decision with no right to further appeal was issued on the action filed by the company against Law 9718 of November 27, 1998, The company alleged that this law was unconstitutional concerning the expansion of the tax basis of calculation, preventing the collection of PIS and COFINS on non-operating revenue.

In view of the final decision, the Management requested extinction of the tax assessment against the subsidiary, concerning PIS and COFINS on exchange variation and reversed, in 2006, the provision set up in 2004 (Note 28). In April 2007 the amount of PIS on exchange variation claimed was reduced by R$ 5,372, the remainder – R$ 25,541 – being now under discussion.

FUST – Telecommunications Service Universalization Fund

On December 15, 2005, Anatel issued its Summary no. 07 aimed at collecting contributions to the FUST out of interconnection revenues earned by providers of telecommunications services, as from the date of enactment of Law 9998 of August 17, 2000. The Company still believes that based on applicable legislation (including the sole paragraph of article 6 of Law 9998/00), the above revenues are not subject to the FUST charges, and accordingly, the Management has taken the necessary measures to protect their interests. In October and November 2006, ANATEL assessed the Company´s subsidiaries for R$ 82,096 referring to FUST on interconnection revenues and arrears fine, all because of Summary 07/05. Currently Anatel’s intended collection of FUST on interconnection revenues earned by the Company is suspended, because of the temporary order favorable to the Company.

ICMS

In 2006 the indirect subsidiary TIM Nordeste S.A. was assessed by the taxing authorities from the State of Piauí for R$ 7,308, in connection with the payment of a difference between intrastate and interstate ICMS rate on fixed assets items for use and consumption and the determination of ICMS basis of calculation for acquisition of goods intended for sale. The Company is impugnating these assessments at administrative level.

22 Assets for retirement obligations

Pursuant to Circular Communication CVM/SNC/SEP 01/2007, the assets for retirement obligations were recorded at present value, and accordingly, R$ 11,470 of financial expenses was reflected in the statement of income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2007 (same period of 2006- R$ 17,626).

b. Capital reserves

Special goodwill reserve

This reserve was set up during the corporate reorganization process in 2000. The portion of the special reserve corresponding to the tax benefit obtained may be capitalized at the end of each fiscal year for the benefit of the controlling shareholder, with no need for issuance of new shares. The respective capital increase will be subject to preemptive rights of the minority shareholders, in proportion to their shareholdings, by type and class, at the time of new issuance, and the amounts payable during the year in connection with this right must be delivered directly to the controlling shareholder, in accordance with CVM Instruction 319/99.

c. Revenue reserves

Legal reserve

This refers to the 5% (five percent) of net income for every year ended December 31 to be appropriated to the legal reserve, which should not exceed 20% (twenty percent) of capital.. Also, the Company is not authorized to set up a legal reserve when it exceeds 30% (thirty percent) of capital plus capital reserves. This reserve can be used only for capital increase or compensation of accumulated losses.

39



Reserve for expansion

This reserve set up in accordance with paragraph 2, article 40 of the by-laws and article 194 of Law 6.404/76 is intended to finance investment projects and plant expansion.

Dividends are calculated in accordance with the Bylaws and Brazilian Corporate Law (“Lei das Sociedades por Ações”).

As stipulated in its by-laws, the Company shall distribute an amount equivalent to 25% of adjusted net income as minimum dividend every year ended December 31, provided there are funds available for distribution.

Preferred shares are nonvoting and take priority on (i) the payment of capital at no premium, and (ii) payment of a minimum non-cumulative dividend of 6% p.a. on the total obtained from dividing the capital stock representing this type of shares by the total number of the same class of shares issued by the Company.

In order to comply with Law 10.303/01, the Company’s bylaws were amended, including the First Paragraph of Section 10, which ensures the holders of preferred shares, every year, the right to receive stock dividends corresponding to 3% (three percent) of net earnings per share, based on the balance sheet most recently approved, whenever the dividend established according to this criterion exceeds the dividend calculated according to the criteria previously established, described in the preceding paragraph.

33 Financial instruments and risk management

The following are the main risks to which the Company and its subsidiaries are exposed:

(i) Exchange rate risks

The exchange rate risk relates to the possibility of the subsidiaries to compute losses resulting from fluctuations in exchange rates, thus increasing debt balances of loans obtained in the market and the corresponding financial charges. In order to mitigate this kind of risk, the Company carries out hedge contracts with financial institutions.

On June 30, 2007, the subsidiaries’ loans and financing indexed to the “UMBNDES” exchange variance of a basket of currencies are covered by hedge contracts. Income or loss resulting from these hedge contracts is charged to the income.

     There are no significant financial assets indexed to foreign currencies.

(ii) Interest rate risks

     The interest rate risks relate to:

47



(iii) Credit risk inherent in services rendered

This risk is related to the possibility of the subsidiaries computing losses originating from the difficulty in collecting the amounts billed to customers. In order to mitigate this risk, the Company and its subsidiaries perform credit analysis that assist the management of risks related to collection problems, and monitor accounts receivable from subscribers, blocking the telephone, in case customers default on payment of their bills.

(iv) Credit risk inherent in sale of telephone sets and prepaid telephone cards

The policy adopted by the Company’s subsidiaries for the sale of telephone sets and distribution of prepaid telephone cards is directly related to credit risk levels accepted during the normal course of business. The choice of partners, the diversification of the accounts receivable portfolio, the monitoring of loan conditions, the positions and limits defined for orders placed by traders, the adoption of guarantees are procedures adopted by the subsidiaries to minimize possible collection problems with its commercial partners. There is no single client who accounts for more than 10% of net receivables from sales of goods as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, or sales revenues earned during the quarters then ended.

(v) Financial credit risk

This risk relates to the possibility of the Company and its subsidiaries computing losses originating from the difficulty in realizing its short-term investments and swap contracts, in the event of either party´s insolvency. The subsidiaries minimize the risk associated to these financial instruments by investing in well-reputed financial institutions and adopting a policy that establishes maximum level of risk concentration on each financial institution.

There is no concentration of available resources in connection with work, service, concessions or rights that have not been mentioned above that could, if eliminated suddenly, severely impact the operations of the subsidiaries.

Market value of financial instruments

The estimated market value of financial instruments, especially cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and short-term financial instruments approximates their book value, given their short duration. Below, the financial instruments with market value different from their book value:

    Consolidated 
   
    06/2007    03/2007 
     
    Book    Market    Book    Market 
    value    value    value    value

    2,300,384    2,279,486    2,092,309    2,071,593 
         

The market value of loans and financing and swap contracts was determined based on future discounted cash flow and at interest rates applicable to similar instruments which involve the same risks and conditions or are based on their market quotations.

The market values were estimated at a specific time, using available information and the Company’s own evaluation methods. Any change in the underlying assumptions may significantly affect the estimates.

34 Pension Plan and other post-employment benefits

Supplementary Pension Plan

On August 7, 2006, TIM Participações S.A.´s approved the implementation by Itaú Vida e Previdência S.A. of PGBL and VGBL Supplementary Pension Plans for the Company and its subsidiaries TIM Celular S.A. and TIM Nordeste S.A. All employees not benefiting from pension plans sponsored by the Company and its subsidiaries are eligible for these supplementary plans.

Atypical contractual relationship

The Company is the succeeding sponsoring company arising from the partial spin-off of Telecomunicações do Paraná S.A – TELEPAR, of the private pension supplementation plans introduced in 1970 under a Collective Agreement, approved by the Atypical Contractual Agreement entered into by said company and the Unions representing the professional categories then existing.

This agreement covers 86 employees hired before December 31, 1982 to whom a supplementary pension is granted, providing that they retire after a minimum service length of 30 years for men and 25 years for women.

As a result of Telebrás split in June 1998, the Company opted for extinguishment of this supplementary pension plan, and accordingly, the participants were entitled to payment in cash of accumulated benefits or transfer of the obligations assumed under this plan to the PBS-A-SISTEL plan. Most of the participants opted for payment in cash. The remainder, duly provided for, will be used to cover benefits due to employees who have not made their option (4 employees as of June 30, and March 31, 2007).

TIMPREV and SISTEL

TIM Participações S.A. and its subsidiaries TIM Nordeste S.A and TIM Celular S.A have sponsored a private defined benefits pension plan for a group of TELEBRÁS system´s former employees, which is managed by Fundação Sistel de Seguridade Social – SISTEL, as a consequence of the legal provisions applicable to the privatization process of these companies in July 1998.

Considering that, in 1999 and 2000, the sponsors of the pension plans managed by SISTEL had already negotiated conditions for the creation of individual pension plans per sponsoring company and maintenance of joint liability only in relation to the participants already assisted on January 31, 2000, the Companies and their subsidiaries in 2002, like other companies resulting from the former TELEBRÁS system, started the creation of a pension plan for defined contributions meeting the most modern social security standards adopted by private companies and allowing the possibility of migration to this plan of the employee groups linked to SISTEL.

On November 13, 2002, the Brazilian Secretariat for Supplementary Pension Plans, through official ruling No. 1917 CGAJ/SPC, approved the statutes of the new pension plan, denominated Statutes of the TIMPREV Benefits Plan, defined contributions, which provide for new conditions for benefits granting and maintenance, as well as the rights and obligations of the Plan Managing Entity, the sponsoring companies, participants and the beneficiaries thereof.

Under this new plan, the sponsor´s regular contribution will correspond to 100% of a participant´s basic contribution , and TIMPREV´s managing entity will ensure the benefits listed below, under the terms and conditions agreed upon, with no obligation to grant any other benefits, even if the government-sponsored social security entity starts granting them.

50



However, as not all of the Company´s and its subsidiaries´ employees have migrated to TIMPREV plan, the pension and health care plans deriving from the TELEBRÁS system briefly listed below remain:

PBS: benefits plan of SISTEL for defined benefits, which includes the employees paying contributions to the plan (active) who participated in the plans sponsored by the companies of the former TELEBRÁS system;

“PBS Assistidos”: private pension plan for employees receiving benefits (inactive), for multi-sponsored benefits;

“Convênio de Administração”: for managing pension payment to retirees and pensioners of the predecessors of the subsidiary companies;

PAMEC: health care plan granted to pensioners of the predecessors of the subsidiary companies;

PBT: plan for defined benefits for pensioners of the predecessors of the company and its subsidiaries;

PAMA: health care plan for retired employees and their dependents, on a shared cost basis.

In accordance with the rules established by NPC-26 issued by the Institute of Independent Auditors of Brazil – IBRACON, as approved by CVM Deliberation No. 371, the actuarial position of these plans represents a surplus not recorded by the Company in view of the impossibility to recover such amounts and also considering that the amount of contributions will not be reduced for the future sponsor.

On January 31, 2006, TIM Participações S.A.´s administrative council approved the proposed migration of Fundação SISTEL de Seguridade Social´s Pension Funds sponsored by TIM Celular S.A. and TIM Nordeste S.A. to a multi-sponsored HSBC-linked pension fund. Throughout 2006, the entities involved conducted studies focused on migration, having finally registered the respective Terms of Transfer with the Ministry of Social Security´s Supplementary Pension Secretariat in December 2006.

In the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, the contributions to the pension funds and other post-employment benefits totaled R$118 (R$129 in the same period of 2006).

35 Insurance (unaudited)

It is the Company´s and its subsidiaries´ policy to monitor risks inherent in their operations, which is why as of June 30, 2007 they have insurance coverage against operating risks, third party liability, and health, among others. The Management of the Company and its subsidiaries find the insurance coverage sufficient to cover any losses. The table below shows the main assets, liabilities or interests insured and the respective amounts:

Types    Amounts insured 
   
Operating Risks    R$ 9,818,787 
General Third Party Liability – RCG    R$ 13,440 
    100% Fipe Table, 
Cars (Executive and Operational Fleets)   R$ 1,000 for RC (DM and DC)

36 Commitments

ANATEL

Under the terms of the Authorization for Mobile Personal Service (SMP) Exploitation, the subsidiaries have committed to implement mobile personal telecommunications cover for the assigned area, on a phased basis, within the quality standards established by such authorization. Should said terms fail to be met, the subsidiaries are subject to penalties.

Anatel has brought administrative proceedings against the subsidiaries for (i) noncompliance with certain quality service indicators in 2004, 2005 and 2006 as established by the licenses for Personal Mobile Service (SMP); and (ii) noncompliance with other obligations assumed under the Terms of Authorization.

In their defense, the subsidiaries have claimed that (i) noncompliance with quality indicators were mainly due to the migration from the Cellular Mobile Service (SMC) to the Personal Mobile Service (SMP), the change in the long-distance system, and the implementation of the GSM network; and (ii) in certain cases the obligations assumed under the Terms of Authorization were not met, whereas in others, this was due to several factors, many of which involuntary and unrelated to the companies´ activities and actions. The subsidiaries are unable to foresee the outcome of Anatel processes at the moment. The provision for regulatory contingencies reflected in the balance sheet corresponds to losses expected by the Management (Note 21).
