REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A.
São Paulo - SP - Brazil

1.     
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Gol Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (a Brazilian Corporation) and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2009, and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, change in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the six-month period ended June 30, 2009. These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.
 
2.     
We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
 
3.     
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to in paragraph 1 for them to be in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

2. Basis of preparation and summary of significant accounting policies (Continued)

Reconciliation with BR GAAP (Continued)

Considering the current stage of the convergence of accounting principles generally accepted in Brazil (BR GAAP) with international accounting standards, there are still differences between the Company’s financial statements under Brazilian law and those prepared according to the rules of the International Accounting Standards Board – IASB. As of June, 2009, a reconciliation of income for the period and shareholders’ equity is as follows:

    June 30, 2009     
    (Unaudited)    
     
Shareholders’ equity under IFRS    1,703,442     
Smiles deferred revenue (a)   15,697     
Effects of acquisition of companies (b)   238,698     
Deferred income taxes (c)   (11,612)    
     
Shareholders’ equity under BRGAAP    1,946,225     
     
 
    Three-month ended    Six-month ended 
    June 30, 2009    June 30, 2009 
    (Unaudited)   (Unaudited)
     
Net income under IFRS    353,689    415,123 
Smiles deferred revenue (a)   (3,579)   (13,966)
Deferred income taxes (c)   (9,570)   (6,039)
     
Net income under BRGAAP    340,540    395,118 
     

a) Smiles deferred revenue

The wholly-owned subsidiary VRG operates a mileage program denominated Smiles that provides travel and other awards to members based on accumulated mileage credits.

The portion of revenue from sales related to miles is deferred, so that its recognition is the result only when the transportation of passengers included the use of miles is provided. For IFRS purposes, the deferred revenue is recorded at fair value based on an estimated market price of the Company to pay to third parties for meeting the obligations of the Mileage Program. While, in the financial statements under BRGAAP obligations are recognized based on the incremental cost that is the additional cost of providing services. Consequently, the variation of the accumulated balance of deferred revenue in IFRS is higher than in BRGAAP, causing a reduction of R$ 15,697 in the Company's shareholders’ equity under IFRS, compared to shareholders’ equity in BRGAAP.

Due to the process of revamping the Mileage Program, the Company has been stimulating the usage of accrued miles through promotions and the possibility of usage of its aircraft, generating an increase of revenue generation. The net effect of such revenue generation was R$13,966 in IFRS, when compared to BRGAAP.

b) Effects of acquisition of companies

For IFRS purposes, the purchase method of accounting was used based on the fair value of net assets and liabilities acquired, including contingent liabilities, being the excess over the purchase price registered as goodwill of the business. Under BR GAAP, the goodwill calculated on the acquisitions of companies has been determined based on book shareholders’ equity.

c) Deferred income taxes

Changes in the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities are the result of the tax effects created by adjustments made to amounts recognized under IFRS which differ from amounts recognized for statutory income tax purposes.

3. Key accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of interim condensed financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. These estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

In preparing these interim condensed financial statements, the key accounting estimates and judgments made by management in applying the Company’s significant accounting policies were the same as those used in the preparation of the most recent published annual consolidated financial statements, except for the adoption of the following revision to accounting estimates described below.

During the second quarter of 2009, the Company revised the depreciation rates used for aircraft under financial leases, aircraft reconfiguration and spare parts, from 5% to 4%, for better compatibility with the useful life of these assets and is supported by technical studies approved by the Company's Management. This change in economic useful life was applied prospectively and will effect the financial statements starting on April 1, 2009. The related reduction of depreciation arising from the change in economic useful life in the three-month period ended June 30, 2009 amounted to R$4,242.

4. Seasonality of operations

The Company’s results from continuing operations are characterized by their seasonal nature and have varied significantly from quarter to quarter. This phenomenon varies in magnitude depending on the year and the Management expects these variations to continue. Generally, the revenues from and profitability of our flights reach their highest levels during the January (summer) and July (winter) vacation periods and in the final two weeks of December during the Christmas holiday season. The week during which the annual Carnival celebrations take place in Brazil is generally accompanied by a decrease in load factors. Given our high proportion of fixed costs, this seasonality is likely to cause our results of operations to vary from quarter to quarter.

6. Income Taxes (Continued)

On June 30, 2009, the tax credits resulting from accumulated IRPJ tax losses, negative CSLL results and temporary differences were recorded based on expectations for future taxable income of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries, within the legal limits. Company Management believes that with the operational structuring of the companies and after the corporate restructuring, it is probable that the future taxable income of subsidiary VRG Linhas Aéreas S.A. will be sufficient to realize its tax credits recognized in the financial statements.

The revised projections for future taxable income, drawn up on a technical basis and supported by Company business plans, as approved by the Company’s management bodies, indicate the existence of sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax credits in an estimated period of six years, considering the 12-month period from July 1 to June 30 of each year, as follows:

    2009    2010    2011    2012    2013    2014    Total

14. Earnings per share

The Company’s preferred shares are not entitled to receive any fixed dividends. Rather, the preferred shareholders are entitled to receive dividends per share in the same amount of the dividends per share paid to holders of the common shares. However, preferred shares are entitled to receive distributions prior to holders of the common shares. Consequently, basic earnings per share are computed by dividing income by the weighted average number of all classes of shares outstanding during the period. The diluted preferred shares are computed including the executive employee stock options calculated using the treasury-stock method as they were granted at an exercise price less that the market price of the shares.

During the quarter and the six-month period ended June 30, 2009, all stock options had an exercise price above the average market price (“out-of-the-money”). Accordingly there is no dilution related to the stock options.

The Company continues to cooperate fully with all regulatory and investigatory agencies to determine the cause of this accident. The Company maintains insurance for the coverage of these risks and liabilities resulting from the claim. The payments for the hull to the lessor were made by the insurance company.

b) Return of aircraft

Relates to the set down of Boeing 767-300/200 and 737-300 aircraft held as operating leases and includes provisions for the costs to meet the contractual return conditions on aircraft held under operating leases.

c) Litigation

At June 30, 2009, the Company and its subsidiaries are parties in judicial lawsuits and administrative proceedings, including 1,280 administrative proceedings, 10,254 civil proceedings and 4,716 labor claims, of which, 1,237 administrative proceedings, 9,634 civil proceedings and 978 labor claims were filed as a result of the Company’s operations.

15. Provisions (Continued)

c) Litigation (Continued)

The company is part of 4 labor claims in France arising from Varig SA debts. As of June 30, 2009, there is no indication of chances of success of said lawsuits, since the respective judicial proceedings has not initiated yet, and the first hearing is scheduled for the end of 2009. The total amount involved was not accrued and is approximately R$7,672 (corresponding to € 2.8 million).

The Company is challenging in court the VAT (ICMS) levies on aircraft and engines imported under aircraft leases without purchase options in transactions carried out with lessors headquartered in foreign countries. The Company’s management understands that these transactions represent simple leases in view of the contractual obligation to return the assets that are the subject of the contract, which will never be considered as the Company’s asset. Given that there is no circulation of goods, a relevant tax triggering event is not characterized.

The estimated aggregate value of lawsuits filed is R$207,040 at June 30, 2009 (R$201,760 at December 31, 2008), monetarily adjusted and not including charges in arrears. Management, based on the assessment of the cases by its legal advisors and supported by case laws favorable to taxpayers from the High Court (STJ) and the Supreme Federal Court (STF) handed down in the second quarter of 2007, understands that it is unlikely for the Company to have losses on these lawsuits.

Although the results of these proceedings cannot be anticipated, the final judgment of these actions will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, operating income and cash flow, according to management’s opinion supported by its outside legal advisors.

16. Transactions with related parties

During the second quarter of 2009, relationships of the Company with its related parties have not changed significantly in terms of amounts and or scope that could have a material effect on the financial position or performance of the Company in the same period.

17. Financial instruments and concentration of risk

The Company’s principal financial liabilities, other than financial derivatives, are comprised of loans and borrowings, trade and other payables. The main purpose of these financial liabilities is to raise finances for the Company’s operations. The Company has loan and other receivables, trade and other receivables, and cash and short-term deposits that are derived directly from its operations. The Company also holds available-for-sale investments, and enters into financial derivative transactions.

The Company is exposed to market risk (including exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and fuel price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Financial instruments affected by risk include loans and borrowings, deposits, available-for-sale investments, and derivative financial instruments.

The Board of Director with the assistance of the Financial Risk Committee, oversees the Company’s senior management of these risks.

The Financial Risk Committee provides assurance to the Company’s senior management that the Company’s financial risk-taking activities are governed by appropriate policies and procedures and that financial risks are identified, measured and managed in accordance with Company policies and Company risk appetite. All derivative transactions are carried out by specialist teams that have the appropriate skills, experience and supervision. It is the Company’s policy that no trading in derivatives for speculative purposes shall be undertaken.

The Financial Risk Committee recommends for approval of the Board of Director a long term program to protect the Company against fuel, currency and interest financial risks in the next 12 months in a rolling basis. This program should be extend if some pre-determined prices are reached.

The Board of Directors reviews and approves policies for managing each of these risks which are summarized below.

a) Fuel price risk

The Company is exposed to fuel price risk and the management fuel price risk strategy aims to provide the airline with protection against sudden and significant increases in oil prices while ensuring that the airline is not competitively disadvantaged in a serious way in the event of a substantial rise in the price of fuel. Pursuing these objectives, the fuel risk management program allows for the judicious use of a number of derivatives available on Over the Counter (OTC) markets with approved counterparties and within approved limits.

Airline operations are exposed to the effects of changes in the price of aircraft fuel, Aircraft fuel consumed in the three-month period ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 represented 33.0% and 41.7% of the Company’s operating expenses, respectively. To manage this risk, the Company periodically enters into crude oil option contracts and swap agreements.

17. Financial instruments and concentration of risk (Continued)

The Company utilizes financial derivative instruments as hedges to decrease its exposure to jet fuel price increases. At June 30, 2009, the Company has a combination of purchased collar structures to hedge approximately 32% and 16% of its jet fuel requirements for the third and fourth quarter of 2009, respectively.

During the second quarter of 2009, there were no gains or losses recognized by the Company as a reduction of aircraft fuel expense (R$35,787 of gains in the second quarter of 2008). During the second quarter of 2009, there were R$ 52,583 of additional losses (R$908 of losses in the second quarter of 2008) recognized in other expenses, related to the ineffectiveness of its hedges and the loss of hedge accounting for certain hedges. The amount of R$ 17,529 in the second quarter of 2009 (R$ 2,580 of gains in the second quarter of 2008) represented ineffectiveness gain and mark-to-market gains related to contracts that will be settled in future periods. As of June 30, 2009 there were R$ 23,030 (R$90,580 of losses at December 31, 2008), net of taxes, of unrealized losses with jet fuel hedges recorded in equity. During the period, all derivative contracts were designated as hedges.

The following table demonstrates the notional value of the derivatives contracted to protect the fuel exposure for each period:

b) Foreign currency risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in foreign exchange rates relates primarily to the Company’s operating activities (when revenue or expense are denominated in a different currency from the Company’s functional currency) and the Company’s net investments in foreign subsidiaries.

Exchange exposure relates to amounts payable arising from U.S. dollar-denominated and U.S. dollar-linked expenses and payments. To manage this risk, the Company uses U.S. dollars options and futures contracts.

17. Financial instruments and concentration of risk (Continued)

The Company utilizes financial derivative instruments as hedges to decrease its exposure in the U.S. dollar exchange rate. The Company has utilized derivative financial instruments for short-term time frames. The Company accounts for its foreign currency futures derivative instruments as cash flow hedges under IAS 39. As of June 30, 2009 the unrealized exchange gains recorded in equity were R$5,369 (R$50,387 of gains as of December 31, 2008).Were recorded in financial income gains related with ineffectiveness of exchange hedge operations already settled an amount of R$15,804 (R$1,550 of losses as of June 30, 2008). On the three-month period ended June 30, 2009, were also recognized losses of R$904 (R$3,892 of losses as of June 30, 2008) in Other expenses related to ineffective hedge contracts for future competences.

While outstanding, these contracts are recorded at fair value on the balance sheet with the effective portion of the change in their fair value being reflected in equity. Ineffectiveness, the extent to which the change in fair value of the financial derivatives exceeds the change in the fair value of the operating expenses being hedged, is recognized in other income (expense) immediately. When operating expenses are incurred and the related derivative contract settles, any gain or loss previously deferred in equity is recognized in operating expenses.

The following table demonstrates the notional value of the derivatives contracted to protect the U.S. dollar exchange rate exposure for each period:

Position as of June 30, 2009     
   
U.S. dollar Exchange risk    3Q09

c) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that counterparty will not meet its obligations under a financial instrument or customer contract, leading to a financial loss. The Company is exposed to credit risk from its operating activities (primarily for trade receivables) and from its financing activities, including deposits with banks and financial institutions, foreign exchange transactions and other financial instruments.

Financial instruments that expose the Company to credit risk involve mainly cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. Credit risk on cash equivalents and short term investments relate to amounts invested with major financial institutions. Credit risk on accounts receivable relates primarily to amounts receivable from the major international credit card companies.

c) Credit risk (Continued)

Outstanding financial derivative instruments expose the Company to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the agreements. However, the Company does not expect any of its eight counterparties to fail to meet their obligations. The amount of such credit exposure is generally the unrealized gain, if any, in such contracts. To manage credit risk, the Company selects counterparties based on credit assessments, limits overall exposure to any single counterparty and monitors the market position with each counterparty. The Company does not purchase or hold derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

d) Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company’s exposure to the risk of changes in market interest rates relates primarily to the Company’s long-term debt obligations with floating interest rates.

The Company’s results are affected by fluctuations in international interest rates due to the impact of such changes on expenses of lease agreements. The Company uses derivative financial instruments to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in international interest rates and accounts for these instruments in accordance with IAS 39. In general, when a derivative can be defined within the terms and cash flows of a leasing agreement, this may be designed as a “Cash Flow Hedge” and the effective portion of fair value variations are recorded in equity until the date the cash flow of the hedged leasing agreement becomes due. The Company also has interest rate derivatives not designated for hedge accounting treatment and, in this case, the periodic variations in fair values are recognized as financial income or expense.

On June 30, 2009, the Company keeps interest swap-lock derivatives to protect itself from movements of international interest rates. On June 30, 2009, for financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges, the Company had contracts with a nominal amount of R$118,219 (R$141,564 as of December 31, 2008) with a fair value of R$3,348 of losses (R$3,878 of losses on December 31, 2008) and recognized R$2,206 (R$3,873 of losses on December 31, 2008) of losses in equity, net of taxes. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2009, the Company recognized R$664 of net losses (there were R$ 2 of gains on June 30, 2008) as a reduction of interest payment recorded in financial expenses.

For interest rate derivatives not designated as hedges, on June 30, 2009, the Company had contracts with a nominal amount of R$84,895 (R$203,786 as of December 31, 2008) with a fair value of R$8,497 of losses (losses of R$30,903 on December 31, 2008) and recognized R$ 8,164 of net gains on three-month period ended June 30, 2009 (there were R$5,992 gains on June 30, 2008), resulting from market value fluctuations and settled contracts, in financial income.

e) Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk represents the risk of shortage of funds to pay off debts. To avoid mismatch of accounts receivable and accounts payable, the Company’s cash management policy limits a maximum of 20% of its investments with maturities in the same month and the duration of the investments cannot exceed the duration of the Company’s payment obligations.

The Company’s off-balance sheet exposure represents the future obligations related to operating lease contracts and aircraft purchase contracts. The Company utilizes derivative financial instruments with first-tier banks for cash management purposes. The Company currently has synthetic fixed income options and swap agreements to obtain the Brazilian overnight deposit rate from fixed-rate or U.S. dollar-denominated investments.

The table below presents the Company’s contractual payments required on its financial liabilities:

f) Capital management

The leverage ratios at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 were as follows:

    June 30, 2009    December 31, 2008 
     
 
Total equity    1,703,442    1,071,608

Leverage ratio (a) / (b)   60%    72% 
     

The decrease in the leverage ratio during six-month ended June 30, 2009 resulted primarily to growth in retained earnings and reduction in net debt due to higher cash balances aroused from higher operating profit.

Restrictive covenants

Contracts with IFC and BNDES include customary covenants and restrictions including those that require the Company to maintain defined debt liquidity and interest coverage ratios. As of June 30, 2009, the Company was not in compliance with two financial ratios established in these contracts. On June 30, 2009 the Company obtained specific consent by the IFC that established new financial ratios to be achieved until December 31, 2009.

Regarding the BNDES loan, according to the specific consent obtained, the Company can present a guarantee letter under the terms and conditions established in order to prevent a breach with the financial covenants. Starting on March 6, 2008, the Company presented to BNDES a guarantee letter with maturity on March 4, 2009, that guarantees all contractual obligations, which have been renewed upon maturity. Subsequent to September 30, 2008, a contract amendment was signed establishing that during the period that the financial covenants are not met, the Company has the obligation to maintain a guarantee letter in order to prevent a covenant breach. According to the specific consent obtained, the Company presented a guarantee letter with a term of 180 days, starting in June, 2009.

The Company has the obligation to comply with the financial ratios on debentures, calculated based on the financial statements of the Company, which may require early settlement in the cases of not accomplishment. The Ratio of Debt Service Coverage is calculated by relationship between cash flow and the debt service of the Company. The Company have to observe a ratio equivalent to at least 100% (hundred percent) in the year of 2009 and 130% (hundred and thirty percent) in the year of 2010, verified at end of each year.
