SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying
prospectus. It is not complete and may not contain all of the information that you should consider before
investing in the global bonds. You should read this entire prospectus supplement and the accompanying
prospectus carefully.
The Issuer
Overview
Brazil is the fifth largest country in the world and occupies nearly half the land area of South America. Brazil
shares a border with every country in South America except Chile and Ecuador. The capital of Brazil is Brasília,
and the official language is Portuguese. On December 31, 2005, Brazil's estimated population was 185.3 million.
Brazil is a federative republic with broad powers granted to the federal Government. Brazil is officially divided
into five regions consisting of 26 States and the Federal District, where Brazil's capital, Brasília, is located.
Government
The federal Constitution provides for three independent branches of government: an executive branch headed by
the President; a legislative branch consisting of the bicameral National Congress, composed of the Chamber of
Deputies and the Senate; and a judicial branch consisting of the Federal Supreme Court and lower federal and
State courts.
Under the Constitution, the President is elected by direct vote. A constitutional amendment adopted in June 1997
permits the re-election for a second term of the President and certain other elected officials. The President's
powers include the right to appoint ministers and key executives in selected administrative posts.
The legislative branch of government consists of a bicameral National Congress composed of the Senate and the
Chamber of Deputies. The Senate is composed of 81 Senators, elected for staggered eight-year terms, and the
Chamber of Deputies has 513 Deputies, elected for concurrent four-year terms. Each State and the Federal
District is entitled to three Senators. The number of Deputies is based on a proportional representation system
weighted in favor of the less populated States which, as the population increases in the larger States, assures the
smaller States an important role in the National Congress.
The judicial power is exercised by the Federal Supreme Court (composed of 11 Justices), the Superior Court of
Justice (composed of 33 Justices), the Federal Regional Courts (appeals courts), military courts, labor courts,
electoral courts and the several lower federal courts. The Federal Supreme Court, whose members are appointed
for life by the President, has ultimate appellate jurisdiction over decisions rendered by lower federal and State
courts on Constitutional matters.
Following two decades of military governments, in 1985 Brazil made a successful transition to civilian authority

and democratic government. A new Brazilian Constitution was adopted in 1988. In 1989, direct presidential
elections were held for the first time in 29 years. After winning a runoff election with 61% of the vote on
October 27, 2002, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva assumed the presidency of Brazil on January 1, 2003. As President,
Mr. da Silva has initiated a series of social programs, including a "Zero Hunger" campaign, which is intended to
eradicate famine and address poverty in the country, a "Bolsa Família" program that provides assistance to
impoverished families and a "First Job" program aimed at facilitating young persons' entry into the

labor market. He has also secured reforms of the tax, pension and judicial systems, moved to establish a
framework for public-private partnerships, introduced a regulatory framework for investment in, among others,
the electricity sector and secured amendments to the country's bankruptcy law. Finally, the da Silva
administration's economic policy has been characterized by fiscal discipline, a floating exchange rate and
inflation targeting. Among the da Silva administration's first initiatives was an increase in the consolidated public
sector primary surplus target from 3.75% of real gross domestic product ("GDP") in 2002 to 4.25% of GDP in
each of 2003, 2004 and 2005. On September 22, 2004, the Government announced that it had raised its primary
surplus target for 2004 to 4.5% of GDP from 4.25% of GDP due to better than expected fiscal revenues. The
Government has maintained its 2006 primary surplus target of 4.25% of GDP.
President da Silva's Minister of Finance is Guido Mantega, who has served in that position since March 28,
2006.
