RELEVANT FACT

The management of Vivo Participações S.A., the new name of Telesp Celular Participações S.A. (“Vivo”) and of Tele Centro Oeste Celular Participações S.A. (“TCO”), hereby announces that, as the corporate restructuring described in the Relevant Fact dated as of December 4, 2005 was duly approved in the extraordinary general shareholders’ meetings of the applicable companies held on February 22, 2006 (as set forth in the respective minutes published on February 24, 2006), the shareholders of TCO and the shareholders of Tele Sudeste Celular Participações S.A. (“TSD”), Tele Leste Celular Participações S.A. (“TLE”) and Celular CRT Participações S.A. (“Celular CRT”) have become shareholders of Vivo. As a result of the corporate restructuring, TCO has become a wholly owned subsidiary of Vivo, and TSD, TLE and Celular CRT have merged with and into Vivo with Vivo as the surviving company.

As the deadline for the exercise of appraisal rights occurred on March 27, 2006, and given that the approval of the corporate restructuring by the extraordinary general shareholders’ meetings will not be reconsidered, payment to shareholders who exercised appraisal rights will begin on March 31, 2006 in the manner described below.

To shareholders whose shares were merged or cancelled (as the case may be) and who, due to the exchange ratios, are entitled to fractional shares, pro rata payments will be made for those fractional shares based on the net market value of all grouped fractional shares, to be determined through an auction (or auctions, if applicable) to be held at Bolsa de Valores de São Paulo—Bovespa beginning on April 19, 2006. These payments to shareholders will be made no later than 5 business days after the date on which the last auction is held, which date shall be publicized at the appropriate time.

Payments to shareholders who have exercised their appraisal rights, as well as payments for fractional shares at values determined through the auction (or auctions) described above, shall be made as follows:

(a) Shareholders must present themselves at any branch of the bank ABN AMRO Real S.A. of their choice to receive the respective amounts;

(b) The amounts to be paid to shareholders whose shares are held in custody with the Companhia Brasileira de Liquidação e Custódia—CBLC (the Brazilian Settlement and Custody Company) will be credited directly to that company, which will pass the amounts on to shareholders through the applicable custody agents; and

(c) For those shareholders whose shares are blocked or whose records are not updated, the amounts will be available for payment to those shareholders at Banco ABN AMRO Real S.A. upon presentation of the proper documents evidencing their identities or the unblocking of their shares, as the case may be.

Additional information regarding the payment of these amounts may be obtained at any branch of Banco ABN AMRO Real S.A., the depositary institution for the book-entry shares of Vivo, or by calling Vivo’s Investor Relations Department at +55 (11) 5105-2276 (Mr. Charles Edward Allen).
