Petrobras’ listing on the Dow Jones Index renewed

Rio de Janeiro, September 03 2009 – PETRÓLEO BRASILEIRO S/A - PETROBRAS, announces that for the fourth year in a row it has earned the right to be listed on the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI), the world’s most important sustainability index, which is used as an analysis parameter by socially and environmentally responsible investors. With the renewal, the Company consolidates itself as one of the most sustainable outfits in the globe.

The ongoing improvements made to the corporate governance practices and the adoption of international transparency standards have allowed Petrobras to once again get the top score in the “Transparency” criterion, a fact that makes its commitment to corporate integrity evident. By this, the Company reinforces its credibility in the market and improves its relationship with its stakeholders.

Petrobras also got the top score in “Human Capital Development” and stood out as a benchmark in the “Environmental Policy and Management System” item. The Company’s performance was also distinguished in issues relative to “Renewable Energiy,” “Social Impacts on Communities,” and “Biodiversity,” among others.

Index composition is determined by the assessment of the environmental, social, and economic performances of more than 317 corporations operating in 58 sectors all over the world. Only 19 oil and gas companies are currently listed on the index. The results of this renewal influence fund managers who make their decisions based solely on companies that are featured on the index. These funds currently invest upwards of $8 billion in stocks belonging to the companies that are on the DJSI.

Having remained on the index is a reflex of the recognition of the commitment the company has made to guide all of its activities and operations based on social and environmental aspects and to minimize its impact on the society and on the environment. Seeking to integrate sustainability to its business, Petrobras is engaged in attaining its strategic objectives of growing with profitability and social and environmental responsibility.
