ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE MARKET PUBLIC REQUEST FOR A POWER OF
ATTORNEY
Pursuant to Article 27 of Instruction 481 of December 17
2009, published by the Securities and Exchange Commission
("CVM"), Lojas Renner S.A. (Company), wishes to announce to
the market that the Company's management, with respect to the
dispatch of its Manual for Participation in Shareholders'
Meetings containing instructions on the participation in the
next Annual General Meeting of the Company ("AGM"), will
issue a Public Request for a Power of Attorney in accordance
with the norms in the said publication.
Considering the risks of non-installation of the AGM at the
first convening notice, thus representing additional costs of
a second calling notice, and to limit this risk, the Company
has resolved to use the vehicle of the above mentioned public
request for a power of attorney to ensure the largest
possible participation of its shareholder base in the
AGM.
The Company's management shall request powers of attorney in
order that shareholders are guaranteed participation in the
AGM and thus be able, should they so wish, to vote for or
against or abstain on the items on the agenda of the day to
be published in due course through the intermediary of a
Convening Notice.
The AGM Call Notice shall contain the following items:
examine, discuss and vote on the management accounts and
financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31
2011;
examine, discuss and vote the proposal for the allocation of
net income for the fiscal year and the distribution of
dividends;
elect the members of the Board of Directors;
establish the amount of compensation of the members of
Management;
elect the members of the Fiscal Council; and
establish the amount of compensation of the members of the
Fiscal Council.
