Dear Shareholders,
The Board of Directors of Banco Bradesco S.A. hereby submits the following proposals for examination and resolution:
1) Capital Stock Increase: to increase the capital stock by R$1,500,000,000.00, increasing it from R$28,500,000,000.00 to R$30,000,000,000.00, upon issue of 62,344,140 new book-entry, registered shares, with no par value, of which 31,172,072 are common shares and 31,172,068 are preferred shares.
1.1. Objective: the capital stock increase is in line with Bradescos strategy of constantly pursuing opportunities for strengthening its business, either through internal growth or through investments and acquisitions that add value to the Bank. Accordingly, the capital stock increase aims to:
(i) continue and strengthen the investments in expanding and modernizing our facilities, mainly regarding information technology, maintaining the Banks structure at levels that are adequate to efficient service rendering and optimization of processes;
(ii) reinforce the Banks capitalization vis-à-vis the growth expectation of the credit operations volume for the next years and the constant evolution of its activities; and
(iii) maintain high levels of liquidity and a conservative policy regarding leverage ratios, thereby creating flexibility for strategic positioning in face of market opportunities.
1.2. Issue Price: R$24.06 per share.
1.3.

The purpose of establishing the price at levels below the market price is to allow leeway for the regular course of the operation, at the same time that it provides conditions for the formation of the subscription price.

The statutory amendment proposed herein:
§ in relation to the administrative changes, they will not have the following effects:
ü legal effects, considering that it only aims at adapting the Companys Management to the expansion that it has been seeing in all areas in which it operates and the need for better support to the administrative tasks in face of the structural dimension of the Organization.
ü economic effects, considering that:
ü the amounts set out at the Annual Shareholders Meeting held on March 10, 2010 for the remuneration of the Management and the costing of Managements Open Complementary Private Pension Plans, within the Pension Plan targeted at the Employees and the Management of the Bradesco Organization, considered a margin to meet contingencies of that nature;
ü according to the provisions of the Statute of the Risks and Capital Allocation Integrated Management Committee, the position of its members is not remunerated.
§ in relation to the reduction of the time limit from 30 to 15 days for the Ombudsman to respond to complainants, the Management not identify any legal or economic effects, since the change has the purpose of being in compliance with Item III of Article 2 of National Monetary Council Resolution #3,849, as or March 25, 2010.
./.
Pursuant to Article 14 and the Attachment 14 of CVM Instruction # 481, as of December 17, 2009, regarding the Capital Stock Increase before the shares subscription to be submitted to the resolution of Banco Bradesco S.A.s Shareholders at the Special Shareholders Meeting to be held on December 17, 2010, we highlight:
.1.
1. Inform the amount of the increase and the new capital stock
Increase the capital stock by R$1,500,000,000.00, increasing it from R$28,500,000,000.00 to R$30,000,000,000.00.
2. Inform whether the capital stock increase will be made by means of: (a) conversion of debentures into shares; (b) exercise of subscription rights or subscription warrants; (c) capitalization of profits or reserves; or (d) subscription of new shares
The increase will become effective upon issue of new shares for private subscription.
3. Explain, in detail, the reasons for the increase and its legal and economic consequences
The capital stock increase is in line with Bradescos strategy of constantly pursuing opportunities for strengthening its business, either through internal growth or through investments and acquisitions that add value to the Bank.
Accordingly, the capital stock increase aims to:
(i) continue and strengthen the investments in expanding and modernizing our facilities, mainly regarding information technology, maintaining the Banks structure at levels that are adequate to efficient service rendering and optimization of processes;
(ii) reinforce the Banks capitalization vis-à-vis the growth expectation of the credit operations volume for the next years and the constant evolution of its activities; and
(iii) maintain high levels of liquidity and a conservative policy regarding leverage ratios, thereby creating flexibility for strategic positioning in face of market opportunities.
The consequent statutory amendment will only become effective after the capital stock increase process is completed, which will take place at the ratifying Shareholders Meeting:
Except for the normal legal consequences arising from the capital stock increase (such as capital changes, amendment to the Bylaws, etc), the Management does not see any other legal consequences. From an economic perspective, the Companys Management does not see any other economical consequences for the Company other than those related to a normal capital stock increase (such as, for example, the inflow of funds from the Company, due to the subscription and payment of new shares). For the shareholders who subscribe the shares they are entitled to there is the possibility of getting an economic gain, resulting from the difference between the market price and the subscription price.
