Next, the President declared the Shareholders Meeting open and invited me, Anamaria Pugedo Frade Barros, to act as the secretary of the proceedings, asking me to read the public announcement, published in the newspapers Minas Gerais, the Official Organ of the State Powers, O Tempo, and Gazeta Mercantil, on August 4, 5, and 6 of the current year, whose content is as follows: COMPANHIA ENERGÉTICA DE MINAS GERAIS CEMIG LISTED COMPANY Taxpayer Identification No. 17.155.730/0001-64 CALL FOR EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL SHAREHOLDERS MEETING The shareholders are called to meet in an Extraordinary General Shareholders Meeting, to be held on August 20th, 2004, at 10:30 AM, at the head offices, at Avenida Barbacena, 1200, 18th floor, in this city of Belo Horizonte, State of Minas Gerais, so as to decide on the dismissal of the Board of Directors and, consequently, the election of permanent and substitute members of the mentioned Board by multiple vote, as requested by shareholder the State of Minas Gerais.

Wilson Nélio Brumer-Chairman, Djalma Bastos de Morais-Vice-President, Aécio Ferreira da Cunha-Member, Alexandre
Heringer Lisboa-Member, Andréa Paula Fernandes-Member, Antônio Adriano Silva- Member, Antônio Luiz Barros de Salles-Member, Carlos Augusto Leite Brandão-Member, Firmino Ferreira Sampaio Neto-Member, Francelino Pereira dos Santos-Member, José Augusto Pimentel Pessoa-Member, Maria Estela Kubitschek Lopes-Member, Nilo Barroso Neto-Member, Oderval Esteves Duarte Filho-Member. Before the item in the agenda of the present meeting was put to discussion and vote, the representative of shareholder Southern Electric Brasil Participações Ltda. declared, to be recorded in the minutes, that the by-laws alterations made by the 10-25-1999 EGM, as well as all subsequent by-law alterations, were approved only because of the suspension of the Shareholders' Agreement, by a Court decision, being, therefore, temporary and provisional. Thus, it was emphasized that the acts and operations effected or approved by the management bodies, as supported by the by-laws alterations made under the protection of the judicial decision now in force, may at any time be revised and removed from the legal world. About this topic, the representative of shareholder State of Minas Gerais reminded that the decision to void the Shareholders Agreement between the State of Minas Gerais and Southern Electric Brasil Participações Ltda. is no longer of a temporary or provisional nature. It is a decision on the merit and, therefore, it is not a suspension, but a cancellation. He added that a decision on the merit that voids the Shareholders Agreement has already been confirmed by the State of Minas Gerais Court of Law. He explained the decisions of this Shareholders Meeting can only take into consideration what actually exists, declaring it foolhardy not to vote the agenda items so as to wait for the Court decisions, because, in truth, the aforementioned Shareholders Agreement, by force of a judicial declaration, cannot produce any effect and the decisions are being made in observation of the judicial provision. In closing, he pointed out the special and extraordinary recourses petitioned by Southern were not accepted by the Minas Gerais Court of Law Vice-President, being that, more recently, the Supreme Court denied provision of instrument and regimental grievances presented by Southern, reinforcing the legal situation already declared by the MG Court of Law, that is, the inefficacy of the lawsuit object, the Shareholders Agreement. Continuing the meeting, the representative of shareholder State of Minas Gerais communicated the dismissal of Member of the Board Fernando Henrique Schuffner Neto. Thus, the President informed that, considering the mandate of the present Members of the Board has begun by means of Multiple Vote, it was this Meeting s duty to elect all permanent and substitute members of the Board of Directors to fulfill the 3 (three) year mandate that started on April 30, 2003, that is, until the General Shareholders Meeting to be held in 2006. However, considering article 12 of the By-Laws, it was required to perform first the election of the permanent member and the corresponding substitute, nominated by representatives of the shareholders of preferential shares so that, then, the multiple vote could be used to fulfill the remaining vacancies in the Board of Directors. Requesting the right to speak, as the holder of preferential shares, the shareholders represented by Mr. Bruno Alexandre Licarião Rocha nominated the following shareholders to make up the Board of Directors: Permanent member: Firmino Ferreira Sampaio Neto Brazilian, married, economist, resident of Salvador-BA, at Av.
