(b) amendment to the By-Laws of NET SERVIÇOS with respect to the structure of the Board of Directors of NET SERVIÇOS and executive board of NET SERVIÇOS with regards to the powers and the quorum to open meetings exclusively to the extent to which such amendment affects the exercise of GLOBO’s rights, pursuant to the provisions of NET SERVIÇOS Shareholders’ Agreement or to the provisions of this Shareholders’ Agreement; and

(a) amendment to any term or condition, termination, cancellation or non-renewal of any agreement or business relationship between NET SERVIÇOS and any Related Party of GLOBO;

(b) execution or renewal of or amendment to any term or condition of purchase agreements for the broadcast of International Channel (“Acquisition for the Broadcast of International Channel”) by NET SERVIÇOS, it being understood that the unfavorable vote shall not apply to the event of Acquisition for the Broadcast of International Channel by means of mobile platform (including, without limitation, mobile broadband, mobile internet, mobile data, mobile data and voice transmission services, regardless of the type of device used for reception thereof). In addition, the unfavorable vote shall lose effectiveness in the following events: (i) if this International Channel that received an unfavorable vote is broadcasted or if the broadcast thereof is renewed by the Brazilian market Operator (except for NET SERVIÇOS and its Affiliates, which shall not be included in this definition) holding the largest subscribers base in the country, pursuant to data disclosed by the National Agency of Telecommunications (“ANATEL”) or by another agency or governmental entity that may replace it in the future, or if these data are no longer officially disclosed by these entities, in accordance with criteria set forth by the NEWCO Shareholders; or, furthermore, (ii) if this International Channel that received an unfavorable vote is broadcasted by an Operator and, after such broadcast, such Operator has had, in any period of three (3) consecutive months, limited to up to one (1) year after commencement of the broadcast of the International Channel, an increase of more than thirty (30) percentage points in the percentage resulting from the sum of net increases of pay-television subscribers of the Operator, divided by the sum of net increases of pay-television subscribers of NET SERVIÇOS and its direct controlled companies during the same period, in the area of provision of services of NET SERVIÇOS and its direct controlled companies, compared with the sum of net increases of pay-television subscribers of the Operator, divided by the sum of net increases of pay-television subscribers of NET SERVIÇOS and its direct controlled companies, in the area of provision of services of NET SERVIÇOS and its direct controlled companies, in the three (3) months before commencement of the broadcast of such International Channel, application of this event (ii) shall not be automatic and, for such purpose, the Shareholders agree, in good faith and before taking any action, to discuss the impact resulting from the broadcast of such International Channel on the sum of net increases of pay-television subscribers of NET SERVIÇOS and its direct controlled companies during the same period, in the area of provision of services of NET SERVIÇOS and its direct controlled companies, to analyze the convenience of broadcasting such International Channel by NET SERVIÇOS. If the shareholders have failed to reach an agreement with respect to the impact of the broadcast of such International Channel, and if such Operator has obtained, in any period of six (6) consecutive months after commencement of the broadcast, limited to up to one (1) year after commencement of the broadcast of the International Channel, an increase of more than thirty (30) percentage points in the percentage resulting from the sum of net increases of pay-television subscribers of the Operator, divided by the sum of net increases of pay-television subscribers of NET SERVIÇOS and its direct controlled companies during the same period, in the area of provision of services of NET SERVIÇOS and its direct controlled companies, compared with the sum of net increases of pay-television subscribers of the Operator, divided by the sum

of net increases of pay-television subscribers of NET SERVIÇOS and its direct controlled companies, in the area of provision of services of NET SERVIÇOS and its direct controlled companies, in the six (6) months before commencement of the broadcast of the International Channel, the unfavorable vote to the broadcast of such International Channel shall automatically lose effectiveness, provided the net increases of pay-television subscribers of this period in the packages including such International Channel represent a significant percentage of the net increases of pay-television subscribers of the Operator in this same period. For purposes of this event (ii), the existence of a significant percentage shall be automatically characterized whenever the International Channel that received the unfavorable vote is included in the basic plan of the Operator; or, furthermore, (iii) if this International Channel that received an unfavorable vote is broadcasted by a company that uses an on-demand video services platform, regardless of the technology, equivalent to the on-demand video services platform of NET Serviços offered now or in the future and with a non-free business model (“Equivalent Platform”) for the broadcast of such International Channel and which has presented, in any three (3)-consecutive month period, an accrued growth of this respective Equivalent Platform proportionally higher than the accrued growth of the on-demand video services platform of NET Serviços and its direct controlled companies, application of this event (iii) shall not be automatic and, for that purpose, the Shareholders agree, in good faith and before taking any action, to discuss the impact resulting from the broadcast of such International Channel on the on-demand video services platform of NET Serviços and of such company to evaluate the convenience of the broadcast of such International Channel by NET SERVIÇOS in its aforementioned platform. If the shareholders fail to reach an agreement with respect to the impact of the broadcast of such International Channel, and if such company has obtained, in any six (6)-consecutive month period, an accrued growth proportionally higher than the accrued growth of the on-demand video services platform of NET Serviços and its direct controlled companies, the unfavorable vote to the broadcast of such International Channel shall automatically lose effectiveness for the broadcast thereof in an on-demand video services platform of NET Serviços and its direct controlled companies. For purposes of measuring the growth of such company, the volume of downloads monthly made by the users of Virtua service shall be taken into consideration, until the parties agree to adopt another form of measurement; and
