Summary of the Decisions Taken at an Extraordinary Meeting of the
Board of Directors of ARACRUZ CELULOSE S.A., held on April 30, 2009.
| Summary: |
| 1. | The chairman of the board informed those present of the resignations of board members João Carvalho Miranda and Paulo Henrique de Oliveira Santos, by means of the letters placed at their disposal. He further informed that Mr. Fabio Faria, elected to the company’s Board of Directors at an Extraordinary General Meeting held on March 25, 2009, did not sign the appropriate documents for his investiture within the legally stipulated period, with the result that the his position of titular member was once more vacant. Consequently, the company’s Board of Directors currently comprises just 6 (six) members, since no-one has been proposed to fill the vacant positions. |
| 2. | The Board of Directors approved the Board of Officers practice, implemented since April 1st, of using hedge accounting to mitigate the effects of economic risks and so as to allow gains and losses to be recognized as offsetting the results deriving from the instrument(s) that is(are) the object(s) of the hedging. Following ratification of the use of this methodology, the board decided that the option to use such practices should be integrated within the company’s Financial Policy. |
| 3. | The board confirmed the position of Mr. Sergio Duarte Pinheiro as a member of the Audit Committee, on which he is the Coordinator and Financial Expert, and also appointed Messrs. Wang Wei Chang and Mauricio Aquino Halewicz to the Audit Committee, with identical mandates to those of the present members of the company’s Board of Directors. |
