This quarterly information is the responsibility of the Company’s management.

2) We conducted our review in accordance with specific standards set forth by the Brazilian Institute of Independent Auditors (IBRACON), in conjunction with the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (CFC), and mainly comprised: (a) questioning and discussing with management members responsible for the Company’s accounting, operating and finance areas in relation to the criteria adopted when preparing the Quarterly Information; and (b) reviewing information and subsequent events that had, or may have, significant effects on the Company’s financial position and operations.

3) Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any other material changes that shall be made in accounting information contained in the aforementioned Quarterly Information, so as to comply with accounting practices adopted in Brazil and rules from the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM), applicable to the preparation thereof.

4) As mentioned in Note 2, due to changes in accounting practices adopted in Brazil during 2008, the statements of income, cash flows and value added for the three-month period ended March 31, 2008, presented for comparison purposes, were adjusted and are being restated, as provided for by NPC 12 – Accounting Practices, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Correction of Errors, approved by CVM Rule No. 506/06.

5) Accounting practices adopted in Brazil are, in certain significant respects, different from the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Information relating to the nature and effect of these differences are stated in Note 2 to the Quarterly Information.

In order to provide information on a single and consistent basis and at the same time meet regulatory requirements of all the markets where its shares are traded, in 2008 the Company adopted the international accounting standards issued by the International Accounting Standards Board – IASB, thus benefiting the users of the information and favoring the process of adherence to Law No. 11.638/07 in the preparation of the Company’s Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2008. As permitted by the SEC and in order to meet the information needs of the market in which it operates, the Company is disclosing its financial statements under the Brazilian Corporation Law, as well as those pursuant to International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), on a simultaneous basis.

Considering the current stage of the convergence of accounting principles generally accepted in Brazil (BR GAAP) with international accounting standards, there are still differences between the Company’s financial statements under Brazilian law and those prepared according to the rules of the International Accounting Standards Board – IASB. As of March 31, 2009, a reconciliation of income for the period and shareholders’ equity is as follows:

Description of acquisition of VRG:

As a result of the acquisition of VRG, on April 9, 2007, the total goodwill calculated on the acquisition, in the amount of R$ 980,223 was determined based on the shareholders’ equity of the company acquired, reflecting all the assets and liabilities identified and measurable existing as of the acquisition date, excluding capitalizable credits with respect to the former stockholder in the amount of R$ 192,795. As described in Note 4, as a result of the application of Law No. 11.638, the goodwill arising from the acquisition of VRG, previously classified under the heading Investments, began to be classified under Intangible assets.

On June 25, 2008, the federal government’s anti-trust board (CADE) approved the acquisition and, on September 23, 2008, the ANAC approved the request for authorization to carry out the corporate restructuring of the Company, jointing its subsidiaries GOL Transportes Aéreos S.A. (“GOL”) and VRG Linhas Aéreas S.A. (“VRG”) into a single airline company, VRG Linhas Aéreas S.A., that assumed the rights and obligations of GOL.

The total goodwill calculated upon the acquisition of VRG Linhas Aéreas S.A., in the amount of R$ 980,223, was determined based on the balance sheet of the acquired company, reflecting all the assets and liabilities identified and measurable existing as of the acquisition date, excluding credits capitalizable with respect to the former stockholder in the amount of R$ 192,795. The goodwill on acquisition of VRG is supported by expectations for future profits, pursuant to technical studies prepared by independent specialists based on economic-financial premises, and the amortization criterion defined was to amortize it in proportion to the expected benefits to be accrued over a period of 10 years from the VRG acquisition date, as from the month in which the economic benefits begin to be effectively generated through restructuring of operations. Even in light of the current adverse economic scenario, management has not identified any indicators of loss of economic substance of the goodwill (i.e. no impairment), the economic benefits of which have been measured based on the value in use of the unit generating consolidated cash, including all the revenues generated by the additional operating capacity resulting from this acquisition.

The Company appraised the recovery of the book value of the amounts of goodwill based on their value in use, using the discounted cash flow model for the unit generating consolidated cash. The process of estimating the value in use involves employment of premises, judgments and estimates of future cash flows, growth rates and discount rates. The premises regarding the cash flow and future growth projections are based on the annual budget and on the Company’s long-term business plan, as approved by the Board of Directors, as well as on comparable market data, and represent the management’s best estimate as to the economic conditions that should prevail over the economic useful life span of the set of assets that provide generation of the cash flows.

10. Intangible Assets--Continued

The main key premises used in estimating the value in use, of which the most sensitive is the recovery value of the assets, are described as follows:

• Use of the discounted cash flow model for appraisal of the value in use;

• Discount rate that is derived from the weighted average rate for cost of the Company’s capital, adjusted for specific market risks;

• Long-term growth rate that reflects the market consensus for the Company’s business;

The recovery testing conducted of the Company’s intangible assets did not result in the need for recognition of losses, inasmuch as the estimated market value exceeds their net book value as of the appraisal date.

Based on the sensitivity analyses of the projected economic scenarios, in the event there are shifts in the key premises used in estimating the value in use of the cash generating unit, such changes would not result in a recoverable amount that is less than the book value of the goodwill and other intangible assets as of the appraisal date.

14. Provision for Contingencies--Continued

The Company is claiming in a lawsuit that the state value-added tax on circulation of goods and services (ICMS) should not be levied on the importation of aircraft and engines, on the basis of lease agreements without purchase options, operations that are carried out with the lessors headquartered in foreign countries. As Company management sees it, such operations are merely rentals, with express contractual obligation to return the asset after the lease expires. Since the asset will never become Company property, management argues, there is no circulation of goods and thus not ICMS tax-triggering event. The estimated aggregate amount at dispute in the cases underway is R$ 204,271 as of March 31, 2009 (R$201,760 as of December 31, 2008), monetarily updated and not including late payment charges.

Based on the interpretation of the issue by its legal counsel, and further backed up by suits of the same nature judged in favor of taxpayers at the Superior Court of Justice (STJ) and Federal Supreme Court (STF) in the second quarter of 2007, management believes that chances of loss are remote. Even though the result of such suits and processes cannot be predicted, management’s opinion, backed up by inquiries of its external legal counsel, is that the final decision in these suits will not have an materially adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash.

There are other cases underway in the amount of R$ 4,737, where the risks of loss have likewise been ranked as remote by the Company’s legal counsel.

20. Risks Inherent in Company Operations and Sensitivity Analysis of Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company is exposed to market risks as a result of its operations, chiefly the effects of changes in the price of fuel and exchange, credit and interest rate risks.

The Company uses derivative financial instruments in order to minimize these risks based on its formal policy for management of risks, which are under the guidance of its executive officers, Risk Policies Committee and Board of Directors. The Company’s Risk Management Policy establishes controls and limits, as well as other tracking techniques, chiefly mathematical models adopted to constantly monitor exposures, in addition to expressly prohibiting the carrying out of speculative operations involving derivative instruments that are only used for hedge purposes. The Company does not conduct operations with exotic derivative instruments or any other type of operation involving leverage.

The exclusive investment funds of which the Company and its subsidiaries are members are used as vehicles to contract risk coverage according to the Company Risk Management Policy.

The relevant information relating to the main risks that affect Company operations are detailed as follows:

20. Risks Inherent in Company Operations and Sensitivity Analysis of Derivative Financial Instruments--Continued

a) Fuel price risk

Airline companies are exposed to the effects of hikes in the prices of aviation fuel. In the first quarter of 2009 and 2008, consumption of aviation fuel represented 31.6% and 42.7%, respectively, of the Company’s cost of services rendered, selling and administrate expenses. To manage this risk, Company uses futures contracts, swaps and options for oil and its byproducts. The object of such fuel hedges is to protect operating expenses on fuel. As aviation fuel is not traded on a commodities exchange, the liquidity and alternatives for contracting hedge operations for this item are limited. Even so, the Company has discovered commodities that are effective in hedging its aviation fuel costs, chiefly crude oil. Historically, oil prices have been highly correlated to aviation fuel prices, which makes petroleum derivatives effective in offsetting the prices of aviation fuel, so as to provide short-term protection in relation to sharp rises in fuel prices. The futures contracts are listed on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX), the swaps are contracted with first tier international banks and options can be listed on the NYMEX, as can those contracted with first tier international banks.

The Company’s derivative contracts as of March 31, 2009 and 2008 are summarized as follows (in thousands, except as indicated otherwise):

    03.31.2009    12.31.2008 
     
Fair value of derivative financial instruments at end of period (R$)   2,386    (102,387)
Average term (months)    
Volume covered by derivative financial instruments designated as hedge (barrels)   1,355    2,046 
 
Period ended March 31:       2009       2008 
     
       
Gains (losses) with effectiveness derivative financial instruments designated as a        13,785 
hedge and are recognized as a rectifier of expenses on aviation fuel (R$)        
Gains (losses) with ineffectiveness derivative financial instruments designated as a        1,203 
hedge and are recognized as a financial expense (R$)   (42,346)    
Percentage of consumption covered by hedge during the period    12%    60% 

Company uses short- and long-term derivative financial instruments and maintains positions for future months. Nevertheless, the Company does not contract hedges to cover all of its future consumption of aviation fuel, which therefore makes it subject to the risks inherent in the volatility of aviation fuel prices in relation to that portion of its consumption that is not covered by hedges. As of March 31, 2009, the Company has a combination of call options and collar structures to hedge approximately 23%, 29% and 16% of its aviation fuel consumption for the second, third and fourth quarters of 2009, respectively.

20. Risks Inherent in Company Operations and Sensitivity Analysis of Derivative Financial Instruments--Continued

a) Fuel price risk--Continued

The Company classifies the fuel hedge derivative financial instruments as cash flow hedges and recognizes the variations in the fair market value of the effective derivative financial instruments under shareholders’ equity until such time as the fuel covered by the hedge is consumed. The effectiveness of the derivative financial instruments designated as fuel hedges is estimated based on statistical correlation methods or by the proportion of the variation in fuel expenses that are offset by the variation in the fair market value of the derivatives. The results of effective hedges are booked as a reduction or increase in the acquisition cost of fuel, and the results of hedges that are not effective are recognized as a financial income or expense. Ineffective hedges occur when the variation ion the value of the derivatives is not between 80% and 125% of the variation in the price of the fuel covered by the hedge. When the aviation fuel is consumed and the respective derivative financial instrument is settled, the unrealized gains or losses booked under shareholders’ equity are recognized in the income statement as rectifying the expenses on fuel.

The Company is exposed to the risk that periodic variations in the fair value of the derivative financial instruments contracted may not be effective to offset the variations in the price of aviation fuel, or that the unrealized gains or losses of the derivative financial instruments may no longer be qualified for remaining under shareholders’ equity. As the derivate financial instruments become ineffective, the contracts are recognized in income for the period as financial income or expenses.

Ineffectiveness is inherent in transactions conducted in order to hedge against exposures by means of derivative financial instruments based on commodities related to petroleum, especially in time of high volatility of refined products price. When the Company determines that certain contracts in effect are not going to be effective in the period remaining through their expiration date, any alterations in the fair market value of the derivative financial instruments are recognized in results for the period in which the variation occurs.

20. Risks Inherent in Company Operations and Sensitivity Analysis of Derivative Financial Instruments--Continued

a) Fuel price risk--Continued

During the three month period ended March 31, 2009, the Company did not recognize net gains resulting from settlement of hedge contracts that were ranked as effective, rectifying expenses on fuel (R$13,785 in gains for the year ended March 31, 2008), and recognized net losses of R$42,346 (gains of R$1,203 in March 31, 2008) under financial expenses, related to the ineffectiveness of the financial instruments designated as hedges. The loss of R$13,451 were also registered in financial expenses at the end of 2008 totaled a loss of R$55,797 related to ineffectiveness of hedge contracts already settled. For contracts with future competences that are considered ineffective, losses totaled R$24,127 (total losses of R$7,270 in March 31, 2008) recognized as financial expenses. As of March 31, 2009 there were unrealized fuel hedges in the amount of R$86,645 (R$90,580 of loss as of December 31, 2008) relating to the effective portion of the derivative financial instruments designated as hedges contracted for future periods booked under shareholders’ equity.

The fair market value of the swaps is estimated based on discounted cash flow methods, and the fair market value of options is estimated based on the Black-Scholes model adapted to commodities options, in this case petroleum.

b) Exchange rate risk

The exchange exposure relating to amounts paid as a result of commercial leases, insurance, maintenance, as well as the exposure to variations in fuel prices caused by the exchange rate, are administered by means of derivative financial instruments represented by dollar futures contracts and dollar options traded on the Brazilian Futures Exchange BM&FBOVESPA. Expense accounts that are covered by exchange rates hedges are expenses on fuel, leases, maintenance, insurance and international information processing services.

As of March 31, 2009 the main assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are related to the lease agreements and instruments to obtain funding to finance acquisition of aircraft.

b) Exchange rate risk--Continued

The Company contracts exchange rate derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposure to this risk related to short-term obligations and, therefore, a substantial portion of its exchange exposure is not covered.

The Company uses short-term derivative financial instruments. The positions of the derivative exchange contracts (in thousands, except as indicated otherwise) are presented as follows:

    03.31.2009    12.31.2008 
     
Fair value of derivative financial instruments at end of period (R$)   -    9,416 
Longest remaining period (months)   -    12 
Volume hedged (US$)   -    139,750 
 
Period ended March 31:    2009       2008 
     
Gains (losses) on effective hedges recognized as         
    operating expenses (R$)   -    (2,636)
Gains (losses) on ineffective hedges recognized as         
    financial expenses (R$)   22,822    (1,954)
Current percentage portion of consumption hedged during the period    -    52% 

The fair market value of the swaps is estimated based on the discounted cash flow. The fair market value of options is estimated based on the Black-Scholes model adapted to currency options, and the fair value of futures refers to the last adjustment due or receivable that has already been calculated and not yet paid.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2009 the unrealized gains on derivative financial instruments designated as exchange rate hedges and measured as effective, booked under shareholders’ equity, totaled R$24,904 (R$50,387 of gains for the year ended December 31, 2008). Were recorded gains in financial income related ineffectiveness of exchange hedge operations already settled an amount of R$25,728, of which R$ 2,906 were recognized on December 31, 2008 and the remaining R$22,822 were recognized during the first quarter ended on March 31, 2009. On March 31, 2009, were also recognized losses of R$5,184 in financial expenses related to ineffective hedge contracts for future competences.

As of March 31, 2009, the Company has no derivative financial instruments designated for hedge U.S. dollar exchange rate.

c) Credit risk

A credit risk arises from the risk that another party may not comply with its obligations, hence generating a financial loss for the Company.

The Company is exposed to credit risks resulting from its operating activities, chiefly accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents, including deposits in banks, financial assets classified as available for sale, and derivative financial instruments. The credit risk on accounts receivable is minimized due to the fact that they are substantially represented by accounts receivable from the major credit card operators, which as a general rule are settled in 30 days.

The credit risk of the derivative financial instruments is represented by the risks that the counterparties will not fulfill their obligations. The Company rates the risks of the other parties and limits its exposure to any one single party. The derivative financial instruments used by the Company are signed with high credit ratings, such as international banks with AA+ or better ratings, according to the Moody’s and Fitch agencies, or international futures exchanges or the Brazilian Futures Market (BM&F). Company management believes that the risk of not receiving the amounts due on the derivative operations is not significant.

d) Interest rate risk

The Company’s results are affected by fluctuations in international interest rates due to the impact of such alterations on its operating lease expenses. As of March 31, 2009 the Company contracted interest swap-lock derivative financial instruments to hedge against oscillation in interest rates on aircraft lease agreements. The variations in the fair market value of these instruments are recognized in results as financial income or expenses for derivative financial instruments not designated as hedges, and for those that are designated as hedges, the effective portions of the variations in the fair market value are booked under shareholders’ equity until the date on which the cash flows covered by the hedge generate results.

d) Interest rate risk--Continued

As of March 31, 2009 the Company maintains derivative financial instruments represented by interest swap-lock contracts to hedge against oscillation in international interest rates. As of March 31, 2009 the nominal value of the financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges was in the amount of R$140,244 (US$60,575 thousand) (R$141,564 (US$60,575 thousand) as of December 31, 2008), with fair market value of R$4,235 in losses (R$3,878 of losses on December 31, 2008), which amount of R$4,232 (R$3,873 of losses on December 31, 2008), corresponds to unrealized losses, was recorded under the equity adjustment heading in shareholders’ equity. During the three month period ended March 31, 2009, the Company recognized gains of R$156 (there were no gains or losses on March 31, 2008) related to interest payments as a financial expense.

For financial instruments not designated as hedges as of March 31, 2009 derivative financial instruments were contracted in the nominal amount of R$100,711 (US$43,200 thousand) (R$203,786 (US$87,200 thousand) as of December 31, 2008) with loss in market value of R$19,765 (losses of R$30,903 as of December 31, 2008) and net gains of R$5,764 (US$2,490 thousand) (there were no gains or losses on March 31, 2008) being recognized under financial income. Variations in the fair market value are recognized in results as financial income or expenses.

Company results are also affected by fluctuations of the interest rates in effect in Brazil, which impact marketable securities, short-term investments, obligations denominated in Reais, as well as assets and obligations indexed to the U.S. Dollar. Such fluctuations affect the market value of the derivative financial instruments contracted in Brazil, the market value of securities pre-fixed in Reais, and the remuneration of the balance of cash and marketable securities. The Company uses Interbank Deposit (DI) futures contracts through the BM&F to hedge against fluctuations in domestic interest rates on the pre-fixed portion of its investments. As of March 31, 2009, the Company has no Interbank Deposit future contracts traded on BM&FBOVESPA.

2- Statement analyzing sensitivity of derivative financial instruments:

Analysis of the sensitivity of derivative financial instruments, taken on an isolated basis, to the fluctuation of the principal risk factor for the probable scenario and the possible and remote adverse scenarios considers the following elements:

• The probable scenario is defined as the scenario expected by the Company’s management, established through the volatility of each asset.

• The possible adverse scenario considers a deterioration of 25% in the principal variable determinant of the fair value of the derivative instrument.

• The remote adverse scenario considers a deterioration of 50% deterioration in the principal variable determinant of the fair value of the derivative instrument.

The following table shows the sensitivity analysis conducted by Company management and the cash effect on the derivative financial instruments open as of March 31, 2009 based on the three scenarios described above:

2 - Statement analyzing sensitivity of derivative financial instruments--Continued:

The following considerations are important for understanding management’s sensitivity analysis:

I) Operations with derivative fuel instruments:

As of March 31, 2009 the Company held two collar options and 23 call option contracts for WTI oil, representing a notional value of 176 thousand and 1,876 thousand barrels, respectively. Those contracts have, respectively, maturities falling between July and October of 2009 and between April and November of 2009. The Company has also contracted collar options that contain the option to purchase WTI oil (call) and a heating oil sale option (put). As of March 31, 2009 the Company has two contracts that involve a notional amount of 116 thousand barrels and with maturities in June 2009.

The Company contracts derivative financial instruments for fuel hedges on the OTC market with the following international concerns:

Counterparty  Maturity  Type of contract

2 - Statement analyzing sensitivity of derivative financial instruments--Continued:

I) Operations with derivative fuel instruments--Continued:

As of March 31, 2009 the Company has financial assets in the amount of R$ 3,195 linked to the margin of guarantee on contracting fuel hedge derivative instruments.

The scenario considered probable by management is that the price of WTI grade petroleum will reach an average of US$ 49.66 per barrel, which would result in a cash inflow of R$12,244 in the event the contracts are settled, which would be recorded as expenses on fuel, if the instruments are measured as effective, or booked as a financial expense if the instruments are considered ineffective. Management estimates that the possible scenario is a reduction in the price of a barrel of WTI oil to US$37.25 and a remote scenario would be if the price went all the way down to US$24.83 per barrel. In the event the possible or remote scenario were to materialize, the Company would book losses in the fair market value of the derivative financial instruments corresponding, respectively, to R$2,094 and R$10,458 for the scenarios of a drop in oil prices, due to the fact that Company has WTI collar type contracts. The Company also contracts collar options linked to Heating Oil (HO) type petroleum. The probable scenario for this type of commodity is that the price will reach an average of US$1.344 per gallon, which would result in a cash outflow of R$9,858. For the possible and remote scenarios, management considers an average HO quotation of US$1.008 per gallon and US$0.672 per gallon, which would result in respective cash outflows of R$13,768 and R$17,774.

II) Operations with dollar derivative instruments:

As of March 31, 2009 the Company has no contracts of derivative financial instruments to protect against oscillation of U.S. dollar exchange rate.

III) Operations with interest rate derivative instruments:

As of March 31, 2009 the Company has two swap amortizing contracts with a notional amount of R$140,564 (US$60,575 thousand) and expiring up to July 2010, for the purpose of hedging its expenses on aircraft leases to the variations in interest rates. The Company further has six interest swap-lock contracts with a notional value of R$100,711 (US$43,500 thousand) expiring between August 2021 and December 2022. The interest rate hedge operations are carried out through contracts with first tier financial institutions. As of March 31, 2009 the Company has contracts outstanding with the following financial institutions:

Party  Month due  Type of contract 
 
Calyon  July 2010  Libor swap amortizing 
 
Citibank  July 2010  Libor swap amortizing 
 
Merrill Lynch  August 2021  swap-lock 
December 2021  swap-lock 
January 2022  swap-lock 
October 2022  swap-lock 
November 2022  swap-lock 
December 2022  swap-lock 
 

The value of the financial assets linked to margin deposits as of March 31, 2009 is R$10,372.

Management estimates that the probable scenario is that the Libor will reach 1.74 % p.a., whereas under the possible and remote scenarios the rates considered are 1.30% p.a. and 0.87% p.a., respectively. The estimated losses under the probable, possible and remote scenarios are, respectively, R$24,000, R$28,651 and R$33,302.

21. Insurance Coverage

Management takes out insurance coverage in amounts it considers necessary to cover any claims, in view of the nature of Company’s assets and the risks inherent in its operating activities, with due heed being paid to the limits set in the lease agreements. As of March 31, 2009 the insurance coverage per type, considering the fleet of aircraft and in relation to the maximum amounts of indemnification, is as follows:

Type of Aircraft Insurance    R$ (Th.)   US$ (Th.)
     
Guarantee for plane fuselage    9,515,528    4,110,024 
Civil Liability per occurrence/aircraft    4,051,600    1,750,000 
Guarantee for fuselage/war    3,982,545    3,982,545 
Inventories    289,400    125,000 

By means of Law No. 10.744 of October 9, 2003, the Brazilian government took on the commitment to complement any civil liability expenses with respect to third parties caused by acts of war or terrorist attacks that might occur in Brazil or overseas and which VRG might be required to pay in terms of indemnities for amounts in excess of insurance policy limits in effect as of September 10, 2001, limited to the equivalent in Reais of US$ 1 billion U.S. Dollars.
