Comments from the CEO

Renato Alves Vale: "It is with great satisfaction that we present CCR's results for the Third Quarter 2011 to our shareholders, the market, employees, users, and our various interested public audiences.

Industrial production registered nil growth in this quarter. Even so there was a significant increase in traffic levels on our road network, corresponding to a growth of 10.7%, compared to the same period a year earlier, on a comparable basis (same concessions), growth amounted to 4.4%.

This performance enabled CCR to meet its commitment to distribute dividends to shareholders, with the distribution of an interim dividend of R$1.59 per share, totaling R$ 701.8 million, while maintaining the company's solid financial position.

We continue to have confidence in the economic scenario in Brazil and in the potential demand as a result of infrastructure development, in addition to new growth opportunities as a consequence of the World Cup (2014) and the Olympic Games (2016), while always prioritizing capital discipline, and consequently the creation of value for the company and its shareholders, and at the same time contributing to the socio-economic development of our Country."
