BANCO DO BRASIL S.A.
(acting through its Grand Cayman branch)

5.875% Subordinated Notes due 2022

Banco do Brasil S.A., a bank with limited liability organized as a sociedade de economia mista and accordingly a sociedade anônima under the
laws of the Federative Republic of Brazil, or Banco do Brasil or the Bank, acting through its Grand Cayman branch, or the Grand Cayman branch, is
issuing U.S.$ 1,500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.875% Subordinated Notes due 2022, or the Notes. The Notes will bear interest from May
26, 2011 and will be payable semiannually in arrears on January 26 and July 26 of each year, commencing on July 26, 2011. See "Description of Notes."
The Notes will be the Bank's unsecured and subordinated obligations. Payment of principal on the Notes may be accelerated only in the case of
certain events involving the Bank's dissolution, winding up or similar events, and the Bank will only be required to make payment on acceleration after the
Bank is dissolved or wound up for purposes of Brazilian law. There will be no right of acceleration in the case of a default in the performance of any of the
Bank's covenants, including the payment of principal or interest in respect of the Notes. The Bank may redeem the Notes in whole but not in part, at their
principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts, if any, to the redemption date at any time in the event of certain changes
affecting taxation, subject to Central Bank approval.
If the Bank is not in compliance with operational limits required by current or future regulations generally applicable to Brazilian banks, or the
risk-based capital requirements, or if the payment of interest or principal (and any other amounts payable in respect thereof) would cause the Bank to fail to
be in compliance with those operational limits, the Bank may defer that payment of interest or principal until it is in compliance with those operational
limits and the payment of interest or principal would no longer cause the Bank to fail to be in compliance with those operational limits.
Application has been made to admit the Notes on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and to trading on the Euro MTF market
of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (the "Euro MTF"). This Offering Memorandum constitutes a prospectus for the purposes of the Luxembourg Act
dated July 10, 2005 on prospectuses for securities.
Investing in the Notes involves risks. See "Risk Factors" beginning on page 25.
The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 as amended (the "Securities Act") or securities laws
of any jurisdiction. Accordingly, the Notes may not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. persons, except to certain qualified institutional
buyers (as defined under the Securities Act, in Rule 144A, or Rule 144A), or QIBs, in reliance on exemptions from registration provided under the
Securities Act and to certain non-U.S. persons in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act, or Regulation S. Prospective
investors that are QIBS are hereby notified that the seller of the Notes may be relying on the exemption from the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities
Act provided by Rule 144A. For a description of certain restrictions on transfers of the Notes, see "Transfer Restrictions."

Price: 98.695% plus accrued interest, if any, from May 26, 2011.

The Bank expects that the Notes will be ready for delivery in book-entry form through The Depository Trust Company, or DTC, and its direct
and indirect participants, including Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System, or Euroclear, and Clearstream Banking S.A.

NOTICE TO RESIDENTS OF BRAZIL

The Notes have not been and will not be issued nor publicly placed, distributed, offered or negotiated in the
Brazilian capital markets and, as a result, have not been and will not be registered with the Brazilian Securities
Commission (the Comissão de Valores Mobiliários or "CVM"). Any public offering or distribution, as defined
under Brazilian laws and regulations, of the Notes in Brazil is not legal without prior registration under
Law No. 6,385 of December 7, 1976 ("Law No. 6,385"), as amended, and Instruction No. 400, issued by the CVM
on December 29, 2003 ("CVM Instruction No. 400"), as amended. Documents relating to the offering of the Notes,
as well as information contained therein, may not be supplied to the public in Brazil (as the offering of the Notes is
not a public offering of securities in Brazil), nor be used in connection with any offer for subscription or sale of the
Notes to the public in Brazil. Therefore, each of the Initial Purchasers has represented, warranted and agreed that it
has not offered or sold, and will not offer or sell, the Notes in Brazil, except in circumstances which do not
constitute a public offering, placement, distribution or negotiation of securities in the Brazilian capital markets
regulated by Brazilian legislation. Persons wishing to offer or acquire the Notes within Brazil should consult with
their own counsel as to the applicability of registration requirements or any exemption therefrom.

This document is being distributed to, and is only directed at, persons who (i) are outside the United

Promotion) Order 2005, all such persons together being referred to as "relevant persons." The Notes are only
available to, and any invitation, offer or agreement to subscribe, purchase or acquire such Notes will only be
engaged in with relevant persons. Any person who is not a relevant person should not act or rely on this document
or any of its contents.

otherwise involving the United Kingdom. This Offering Memorandum must not be acted on or relied on by persons
who are not relevant persons. Any investment or investment activity to which this communication relates shall be
available only to relevant persons and will be engaged in only with relevant persons.
This Offering Memorandum has been prepared on the basis that any offer of Notes in any Member State of
the European Economic Area which has implemented Directive 2003/71/EC (the "Prospectus Directive") (each, a
"Relevant Member State") will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive, as implemented in
that Relevant Member State, from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of the Notes. Accordingly, any
person making or intending to make an offer of the Notes in that Relevant Member State may only do so in
circumstances in which no obligation arises for the Bank or any Initial Purchaser to publish a prospectus pursuant to
Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive,
in each case, in relation to such offer. Neither the Bank nor any Initial Purchaser has authorized, nor do they
authorize the making of any offer of Notes in any other circumstances. This Offering Memorandum is not a
"prospectus" for the purposes of the Prospectus Directive and has not been approved as such by a competent
authority in any Relevant Member State.
The Notes will not be offered to persons who are members of the public in the Cayman Islands. "Public"
for these purposes does not include any exempted or ordinary non-resident company registered under the
Companies Law (2010 Revision) of the Cayman Islands (the "Companies Law") or a foreign company registered
pursuant to Part IX of the Companies Law or any such company acting as general partner of a partnership registered
pursuant to Section 9(1) of the Exempted Limited Partnership Law (2010 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, as
amended, or any director or officer of the same acting in such capacity or the trustee of any trust registered or
capable of registration pursuant to Section 74 of the Trusts Law (2009 Revision) of the Cayman Islands acting in
such capacity.

PRESENTATION OF FINANCIAL AND CERTAIN OTHER INFORMATION
The Bank and its consolidated subsidiaries' (BB-Consolidated) audited consolidated financial statements as
of and for the years ended (i) December 31, 2010 and 2009, or the 2010 Financial Statements; (ii) December 31,
2009 and 2008, or the 2009 Financial Statements, and, together with the 2010 Financial Statements, the Annual
Financial Statements; and (iii) the Bank's unaudited consolidated financial information as of and for the three month
periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, or the March 2011 Financial Statements, and together with the Annual
Financial Statements, the Financial Statements, in each case together with the Notes thereto and included elsewhere
in this Offering Memorandum, have been prepared in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil, based
on Brazilian Law No. 6,404, dated December 15, 1976, as amended, or the Brazilian Corporations Law, the
accounting standards issued by the Brazil Institute of Independent Accountants (Instituto dos Auditores
Independentes do Brasil) ("IBRACON"), the Accounting Pronouncement Committee (Comitê de Pronunciamentos
Contábeis) ("CPC"), and the rules and regulations issued by CVM and the Central Bank. The accounting practices
adopted in Brazil are defined, for the purposes of this Offering Memorandum, as "Brazilian GAAP," which differs
in significant respects from generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP.
The audit report covering the Bank's 2010 Financial Statements contains "Other Matters" paragraphs
stating that the Bank recorded an asset relating to its PREVI surplus, which was determined based on criteria
established by management and which includes actuarial and financial estimates and assumptions and fulfills
regulatory requirements in force. In addition, the 2009 auditing standards in Brazil permitted the sharing of
responsibility with other independent auditors. Therefore, for the year ended December 31, 2009, the financial
statements for certain indirect investments and the net assets used to calculate the retirement and pension plan were
audited by other independent accountants. The Bank's independent auditor's evaluation with respect to these assets
and income is based on the reports issued by those other independent accountants.
The audit report covering the Bank's 2009 Financial Statements contains an emphasis paragraph stating that
the Bank has recorded assets relating to the surplus of PREVI, which was determined based on criteria established
by management that include estimates and assumptions of an actuarial and financial nature, as well as the fulfillment
of the regulatory requirements in force. In addition, the audit report states that the balances and respective income
of certain indirect investments and the net assets used in the calculation of the Retirement and Pension Plan were
audited by other independent accountants and that the Bank's independent auditor's evaluation with respect to those
assets and income is based on the reports issued by the other independent accountants.
Moreover, the Brazilian Accounting Pronouncements Committee (CPC) issued a number of accounting
pronouncements which, if approved by the Central Bank, must be adopted in the preparation of the Bank's financial
statements in accordance with the accounting practices adopted in Brazil. The Bank's management understands that
the application of the accounting pronouncements may have a relevant impact on the stockholders' equity and results
of the Bank.
CMN Resolution 3,786/09 and Circular Letters 3,472/09 and 3,516/10 established that financial institutions
and other entities authorized to operate by Bacen, which are listed companies or which are required to maintain an
Audit Committee shall, as from December 31, 2010, prepare annually and publish in up to 90 days from the base
date December 31, their consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRS), in compliance with standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.
(IASB). Bacen's Circular 3,516/10 increased from 90 to 120 days the disclosure term of Financial Statements
according to IFRS as of December 31, 2010. Such requirements are in addition to those issued by the Central Bank
that requires financial statements to be prepared in accordance with Brazilian GAAP as included herein.
On April 29, 2011, the Bank made its financial statements for December 31, 2010 and 2009 prepared in
accordance with IFRS standards available on its and the CVM's websites.
The assets and liabilities of Banco Votorantim, in proportion to the Bank's share in total capital stock, have
been consolidated into the Bank's balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 and 2009. The proportional share of
income and expenses of Banco Votorantim was consolidated into the Bank's financial statements as from October
2009.

In this Offering Memorandum, tables containing financial information include, except where otherwise
indicated, consolidated financial information of the Bank.
The Bank's average volume and balance data has been calculated based upon the average of the month-end
balances during the relevant period.
Certain rounding adjustments have been made in calculating some of the figures included in this Offering
Memorandum. Accordingly, numerical figures shown as totals in some tables may not agree precisely with the
figures that precede them. The Bank maintains its books and records in reais.
The statistical information and data related to the Bank's business areas were obtained from government
entities or extracted from general publications. Neither the Bank nor the Initial Purchasers have independently
verified such information and data, and, therefore, cannot assure their accuracy and completeness.
Solely for the convenience of the reader, the Bank has converted certain amounts contained in "Summary,"
"Capitalization," "Selected Financial Information," "Other Statistical and Financial Information" and elsewhere in
this Offering Memorandum from reais into U.S. dollars. Except as otherwise expressly indicated, the rate used to
convert such amounts was R$1.6287 to US$1.00 (subject to rounding adjustments), which was the exchange rate in
effect as of March 31, 2011 as reported by the Central Bank. The U.S. dollar equivalent information presented in
this Offering Memorandum is provided solely for the convenience of investors and should not be construed as
implying that the amounts presented in reais represent, or could have been or could be converted into, U.S. dollars at
such rates or at any other rate. The real/U.S. dollar exchange rate may fluctuate widely, and the exchange rate as of
March 31, 2011 may not be indicative of future exchange rates. See "Exchange Rate Information" for information
regarding real/U.S. dollar exchange rates.
