NOTICE TO THE MARKET

S&P upgrades Light SESA's rating

Light S.A. ("Light" or "Company"), in compliance with CVM Instruction 480 of December 7, 2009, hereby informs its shareholders and the market in general that the risk rating agency Standard & Poor's ("S&P"), by the report released on April 27, upgraded from brA to brA+ the long-term corporate credit rating of Light Serviços de Eletricidade S.A. ("Light SESA"), with stable outlook.

According to S&P, the Light SESA long-term rating increase is due to the Light recent initiatives to refinance its debt, strengthening its liquidity position, improving the capital structure and increasing its maturity, as the issuance of Notes Units (Bond) of US$ 600 million due 2023, which will significantly reduce Light's debt exposure until 2019.

Finally, the Company informs that Standard & Poor's full report is available at Light's Investor Relations website:www.light.com.br/ri.
