Material Fact

The Management Bodies of Banco Bradesco S.A., at meetings held today, resolved to:

I. Board of Directors

Call the Company’s shareholders to gather at the Special Shareholders’ Meeting, to be held on December 17, 2010, at 5 p.m., at the Company’s headquarters, Cidade de Deus, Vila Yara, Osasco, SP, at Salão Nobre, 5o andar, Prédio Vermelho, in which the Board of Directors will present proposals for the resolution of shareholders, highlighting:

Capital Stock Increase with Subscription of New Shares

Capital Stock Increase by the amount of R$1,500,000,000.00, increasing it from R$28,500,000,000.00 to R$30,000,000,000.00, by issuing 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, at the price of R$24.06 per share, for private subscription by the shareholders in the period from December 29, 2010 to January 31, 2011, in the proportion of 1.657008936% on the shareholding position that each one holds on the date of the Shareholders’ Meeting (December 17, 2010), with payment in cash, on February 18, 2011, of 100% of the amount of the subscribed shares.

The Capital Stock increase aims to:

continue and strength the investments in the expansion and modernization of our facilities, mainly regarding information technology, maintaining the Bank’s structure at levels that are adequate to an efficient service rendering and optimization of processes;
 
reinforce the Bank’s capitalization vis-à-vis the growth expectation of the volume of credit operations for the next years and the constantly evolution of its activities; and
 
maintain high levels of liquidity and conservative policy regarding the leverage ratios, creating flexibility for strategic positioning in face of market opportunities.

The exercise of the share subscription rights will not result in any disbursement of new resources by the shareholders registered in the Bank’s records on December 6, 2010, since the payment may be realized by using the credits related to Complementary Interest on Own Capital to be paid on the same date of the payment of the subscribed shares, according to the provisions of Item II.

II. Board of Executive Officers

Payment of Complementary Interest on Own Capital at the amount of R$ 1.906 billion

To propose to the Board of Directors, which shall resolve at a meeting to be held on December 6, 2010, the payment of Complementary Interest on Own Capital to the Company’s shareholders, which will allow the shareholders to subscribe the capital stock increase proposed in item “I”, without any disbursement of new resources;

Complementary Interest on Own Capital, in the amount of R$1,906,000,000.00, consisting of R$0.482461664 per common share and R$0.530707830 per preferred share, whose payment will be made by the net amount of R$0.410092414 per common share and R$0.451101656 per preferred share, already net of Withholding Income Tax of 15% (fifteen percent), except for corporate shareholders who are exempt from the referred tax, which shall receive the declared amount;

Upon the approval of the proposal, the payment shall be made on February 18, 2011, benefiting the shareholders who are registered at the Bank’s records on December 6, 2010. The shares will be traded “ex-right” on Interest on Own Capital as from December 7, 2010.
