Banco BTG Pactual S.A.
a sociedade anônima incorporated in the Federative Republic of Brazil
(acting through its Luxembourg Branch)
8.750% Perpetual Non-Cumulative Junior Subordinated Notes
Banco BTG Pactual S.A., a sociedade anônima incorporated in the Federative Republic of Brazil, or Banco BTG Pactual, acting through its Luxembourg Branch, is issuing
US$1,300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.750% Perpetual Non-Cumulative Junior Subordinated Notes, or the Notes. The Notes will bear interest from September 18, 2014
and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 18 and September 18 of each year, commencing on March 18, 2015, or the Interest Payment Dates, unless we defer interest
payments under the Notes as described below.
The Notes will be our unsecured and subordinated obligations. The Notes will be perpetual securities with no final maturity date and will not be subject to any mandatory
redemption provisions. There will be no right of acceleration in the case of a default in the performance of any of our covenants, including the payment of principal (if due and payable)
or interest in respect of the Notes. However, if a bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, winding up or similar event, or a Dissolution Event (as defined herein), occurs, the principal
amount of the Notes will be accelerated only to the extent required under Brazilian subordination rules but such Dissolution Event will not constitute a payment default under the
indenture governing the Notes. See "Description of the Notes." Subject to the approval of the Central Bank of Brazil (Banco Central do Brasil), or the Central Bank, and any other
applicable Brazilian governmental authority, if such approval is then required, Banco BTG Pactual may redeem the Notes in whole, but not in part, at its option on September 18, 2019
or any following Interest Payment Dates (as defined herein) or following the occurrence of certain changes affecting taxation and the classification of the Notes as Additional Tier 1
Capital (Capital Complementar) pursuant to Resolution No. 4,192, issued by the National Monetary Council (Conselho Monetário Nacional), or CMN, on March 1, 2013, as amended,
or CMN Resolution No. 4,192. See "Description of the Notes" and "Risk Factors--Risk Factors Relating to the Regulatory Environment--No assurance can be given that the Notes will
qualify as Additional Tier 1 Capital (Capital Complementar) or that the Central Bank will not amend the existing regulations or change its interpretation of the Tier 1 Capital
regulations."
If (i) we are not in compliance with operational limits or capital requirements required by current or future regulations generally applicable to Brazilian banks or if the
payment of interest or principal (if due and payable) would cause us to fail to be in compliance with those operational limits and capital requirements, or (ii) an interest payment due
under the Notes exceeds our distributable profits and accumulated profit reserves recorded for the relevant period, we may defer any payments under the Notes (including payment of
interest or principal (if due and payable)) until we are in compliance with those operational limits and capital requirements and such payments would no longer cause us to fail to be in
compliance with those operational limits and capital requirements or until we have sufficient distributable profits and accumulated profit reserves, as the case may be. In addition, we
may also defer such payments under the Notes if a Dissolution Event occurs or if the Central Bank or other applicable Brazilian governmental authority restricts dividend and other
distributions related to our instruments treated as Common Equity Tier 1 Capital (Capital Principal) as defined in CMN Resolution No. 4,192. These deferrals will not constitute a
payment default under the Notes and no interest will accrue or accumulate during these deferral periods. See "Risk Factors--Risk Factors Relating to the Notes--We will not be obliged
to make non-principal payments on the Notes at certain times, and those amounts need to be subsequently paid to the Noteholders."
The outstanding principal, interest and all other amounts due, or with respect to, the Notes shall be permanently written-off in an amount at least equal to the
amount of the Notes accounted as Tier 1 Capital upon the occurrence of certain events relating to our capital requirements, as further described under "Description of the
Notes--Write-Off." The write-off of any amount due under the Notes and the situations described above will not constitute a default under the Notes and will not allow
investors to request payment of outstanding principal, interest or any other amounts due, or with respect to, the Notes. Therefore, in case of a write-off, Noteholders may lose
their entire investment in the Notes. See "Risk Factors--Risk Factors Relating to the Notes--The circumstances surrounding a write-off are unpredictable and may be caused
by factors not fully within our control. In case of a write-off, the Noteholders may lose their entire investment in the Notes."
We may, without the prior consent of Noteholders, subject to certain conditions and exceptions, amend certain terms and conditions of the Notes from time to
time, during the period of one year from the Closing Date (as defined herein), in order to, and only to the extent necessary to, comply with any new resolution of the CMN, or
written instruction of the Central Bank setting forth its requirements to qualify, or maintain the qualification of, the Notes as Additional Tier 1 Capital. See "Description of
the Notes" and "Risk Factors--Risk Factors Relating to the Notes--We may be required to amend the terms and conditions of the Notes without your prior consent to
comply with the requirements of the Central Bank to qualify Notes as Additional Tier 1 Capital (Capital Complementar)."
Application has been made to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for the Notes to be admitted to listing on the Official List of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange and to
trading on the Euro MTF Market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange, or the Euro MTF, which is not a regulated market within the meaning of the Directive 2004/39/EU of the

dated July 10, 2005, as amended, on prospectuses for securities, or the Prospectus Law, and may only be used for the purpose for which it has been published.
Investing in the Notes involves risks. See "Risk Factors" beginning on page 34 for certain information that you should consider before investing in the Notes.
The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, or securities laws of any jurisdiction.
Accordingly, the Notes may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons (as defined under Regulation S of the Securities Act, or

ENFORCEABILITY OF JUDGMENTS
Brazil
We are a corporation (sociedade anônima) incorporated under the laws of Brazil and most of our board
members and executive officers as well as most of their assets and those of such other persons, are located outside
the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for you to effect service of process upon us or such other
persons within the United States or other jurisdictions outside Brazil. Because judgments of U.S. courts for civil
liabilities based upon U.S. federal securities laws may only be enforced in Brazil if certain conditions are met, you
may face greater difficulties in protecting your interests in the case of actions against us, our board of directors or
executive officers (as the case may be) than would investors in a U.S. corporation. In addition, awards of punitive
damages in actions brought in the United States or elsewhere may be unenforceable in Brazil.
We have been advised by Machado, Meyer, Sendacz e Opice Advogados, our Brazilian counsel, that final
substantiated (i.e., if the grounds for the judgment are contained in the decision), certain (i.e., the obligation to be
accomplished in Brazil as ordered by the foreign judgment is clearly defined) and conclusive judgments for the
payment of money rendered by any Luxembourg court or any New York state or federal court sitting in New York
City in respect of the Notes may be, subject to the requirements described below, enforced in Brazil. A judgment
against us or the persons described above obtained outside Brazil would be enforceable in Brazil without
reconsideration of the merits, upon confirmation of that judgment by the Brazilian Superior Court of Justice
(Superior Tribunal de Justiça), or STJ. Such confirmation would occur if the foreign judgment:

complies with all formalities required for its enforceability under the laws of the jurisdiction where the
foreign judgment is granted;

is issued by a competent court after due service of process on the parties or sufficient evidence of the
parties' absence has been given as required under applicable law, provided that such service must
comply with Brazilian law;

is final and not subject to appeal;

is authenticated by a Brazilian consular office with jurisdiction over the location where the foreign
judgment is issued and is accompanied by a sworn translation into Portuguese; and

is not contrary to Brazilian national sovereignty, public policy or public morality.
There can be no certainty that the confirmation will be obtained, that the process described above will be
conducted in a timely manner or that Brazilian courts will enforce a monetary judgment for violation of the United
States or English securities laws with respect to the Notes offered by this Offering Memorandum.
Brazilian counsel have further advised us that original actions predicated on the securities laws of countries
other than Brazil may be brought in Brazilian courts and that, subject to applicable law, Brazilian courts may
enforce civil liabilities in such actions against us, our directors, executive officers and advisors named in this
Offering Memorandum.
A plaintiff (whether or not Brazilian) residing outside Brazil during the course of litigation in Brazil must
provide a bond to guarantee court costs and legal fees if the plaintiff owns no real property in Brazil that could
secure such payment. The bond must have a value sufficient to satisfy the payment of court fees and defendant's
attorney fees, as determined by a Brazilian judge. This requirement may not apply to counterclaims enforcement,
extrajudicial enforcement instruments or the enforcement of foreign judgments that have been duly confirmed by the
STJ.
Investors may also have difficulties enforcing original actions brought in courts in jurisdictions outside the
United States for liabilities under the U.S. securities laws.

Luxembourg
The Luxembourg Branch is duly licensed and qualified to do business as a branch of a foreign bank
according to the laws of Luxembourg.
Although there is no treaty between Luxembourg and the United States or Luxembourg and Brazil
regarding the reciprocal enforcement of judgments, we have been advised by Loyens & Loeff Luxembourg S. à r.l.,
our Luxembourg counsel, that a valid, final and conclusive judgment obtained from a state or federal court of the
United States or a Brazilian court, which judgment remains in full force and effect, may be enforced through a court
of competent jurisdiction in Luxembourg, subject to compliance with the enforcement procedures set forth in Article
678 et seq. of the Luxembourg New Code of Civil Procedure, being:

the foreign court must properly have had jurisdiction to hear and determine the matter, both according
to its own laws and to the Luxembourg international private law conflict of jurisdiction rules;

the foreign court must have applied the law which is designated by the Luxembourg conflict of laws
rules or, at least, the order must not contravene the principles underlying those rules. However,
according to case law, the Luxembourg courts no longer have the obligation to verify whether the law
applied by the foreign court is the law which is designated by the Luxembourg conflict of laws rules;

the decision of the foreign court must be final and enforceable (exécutoire) in the jurisdiction in which
it was rendered;

the foreign court must have applied the proper law to the matter submitted to it and the foreign
procedure must have been regular in light of the laws of the country of origin;

the decision of the foreign court must not have been obtained by fraud, but in compliance with the
rights of the defendant and in compliance with its own procedural laws; and

the decisions and the considerations of the foreign court must not be contrary to Luxembourg
international public policy rules or have been given in proceedings of a tax penal or criminal nature.
Please note that according to case law, the Luxembourg courts shall not review the merits of a foreign
judgment and shall only verify whether the conditions for exequatur are fulfilled.
Luxembourg counsel have further advised us that if an original action is brought in Luxembourg, without
prejudice to specific conflict of law rules, Luxembourg courts may refuse to apply the designated law (i) if the
choice of such foreign law was not made bona fide or (ii) if the foreign law was not pleaded and proved or (iii) if
pleaded and proved, such foreign law was contrary to mandatory Luxembourg laws or incompatible with
Luxembourg public policy rules.
The registration of the Notes, the Indenture and the transaction documents (and any document in
connection therewith) with the Administration de l'Enregistrement et des Domaines in Luxembourg may be required
if legal proceedings are filed before Luxembourg courts or in the case that the Notes, the Indenture and the
transaction documents (and any document in connection therewith) must be produced before an official
Luxembourg authority (autorité constituée). In such case, either a nominal registration duty or an ad valorem duty
(or, for instance, 0.24% of the amount of the payment obligation mentioned in the document so registered) will be
payable depending on the nature of the document to be registered.
The Luxembourg courts or the official Luxembourg authority may require that the Notes, the Indenture and
the transaction documents (and any document in connection therewith) and any judgment obtained in a foreign court
be translated into French or German.
