MATERIAL FACT

Debentures issuance by Brasil Telecom Comunicação Multimídia S.A.

Oi S.A. - In Judicial Reorganization ("Oi" or the "Company"), in compliance with article 157, Paragraph 4, of Law No. 6,404/76 and the provisions of CVM Instruction No. 358/02, hereby informs its shareholders and the market in general that its indirect subsidiary Brasil Telecom Comunicação Multimídia S.A. ("BTCM" or the "Issuer"), which has been chosen to be used as the InfraCo SPE within the competitive process for the partial sale of the InfraCo UPI, pursuant to the Amendment to the Judicial Reorganization Plan (the "Amendment"), executed, on this date, an indenture of its first issuance of secured convertible debentures with additional secured guarantee, for private placement, in the total amount of up to R$ 2,500,000,000.00 (the "Debentures", the "Issuance" and the "Indenture", respectively).

The subscription of the Debentures will be led by Brookfield Asset Management, with participation by Farallon Latin America Investimentos and Prisma Capital.

Pursuant to the Company's competent corporate resolutions and those of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, the Issuance and the Debentures: (i) will have equal issuance date as of its 1st capital subscription (the "Issue Date"); (ii) will mature within 24 months from the Issue Date, except in the events of an early redemption or early maturity as provided for in the Indenture; (iii) shall be convertible into redeemable preferred shares issued by BTCM, which represent a majority of the Issuer's voting shares (the "Conversion"); (iv) shall be subscribed and paid-up until April 15, 2021; (v) shall have their unit par value accrued for inflation by the Extended National Consumer Price Index (Índice Nacional de Preços ao Consumidor Amplo, or the "IPCA"), plus interest at a fixed rate of 11% per annum and (vi) shall bear secured guarantee to be provided by BTCM in the form of its assets.

As provided for in the Amendment, Oi, through its subsidiaries Oi Móvel S.A. - In Judicial Reorganization and Telemar Norte Leste S.A. - In Judicial Reorganization, will hold a call option of all the preferred shares held by the Debenture holders as a result of the Conversion.

The effective Issuance is subject to authorizations and the fulfillment of a number of precedent conditions set forth in the Indenture.

The Issuance was approved on the basis of the Amendment and is considered a financing not subject to bankruptcy rules (financiamento extraconcursal), in order to continue supporting the Company's investment in creating the largest fiber optic infrastructure in Brazil, in line with the strategy previously disclosed to the market. As recently announced, the Company continues to make progress in its process to sell a majority of BTCM as contemplated under the Judicial Reorganization Plan and expects the Debentures to be repaid from the proceeds of that sale.

The Company will keep its shareholders and the market informed of the development of the subject matter of this Material Fact.
