We hereby inform our shareholders and the market in general that it was received on May 11, 2015, the Oficio 154/2015 / CVM / SEP / GEA-1 with a request for clarification, as transcribed below:

Mr. CFO,

1. We refer to the article published on 05.11.2015 in the newspaper "O Estado de São Paulo", under the heading "Eletrobrás will merge distribution companies in the North Region" which contained the following statements:

"Eletrobrás prepares two mergers operation among its power distribution companies operating in the north of the country. The objective is to centralize management and reduce the costs of these distribution companies, in order to sell them in the future.
The plan, as ascertained by "O Estado de São Paulo", is to transform the company "Boa Vista Energia" and "Companhia Energética de Roraima" (CERR) in a single company, which should be completed by the end of this year. As of the merger, the new company will be part of a new block to be sold in the North Region, adding to the operations of Amazonas Energia and "Companhia de Eletricidade do Amapá (CEA). To bring together these distributotion companies, Eletrobras believes that these companies will result in an asset of more value, thus more attractive to investors.

The second merger involves Eletronorte. This company will absorb the generation and transmission operations belonging to the Amazonas Energia. Amazonas Energia will keep only distribution part, to be sold separately. The first measures to facilitate the merger have already been taken. Recently, Eletrobras appointed the executive board of Eletronorte to perform the Amazonas Energia operations

The restructuring of Eletrobras distribution companies is part of a company effort to sell these assets to the private sector and concentrate on generation and transmission projects.
As already reported By "O Estado de São Paulo", Eletrobras also works to structure the offer of a single block of four distribution companies - Piauí (Cepisa), Alagoas (Ceal), Rondônia (Ceron) and Acre (Eletroacre) - which must take place between next 30 to 60 days.
CELG. The most advanced selling project, however, is the CELG, in which Eletrobras has partnership with the government of Goiás. The vice president and Chief Regulation Officer of CELG, Elie Chidiac, ensures that the company is attractive to investors. The company has 2.7 million consumer units, and forecast is that energy consumption in the state of Goias should increase 4% in this year and 17% in rural areas. The CELG has low rates of losses of energy. In addition, Goiás has facilities like flat and without environmental reserve areas, which makes it more attractive for investment. [...]
