GOL INFORMS SHAREHOLDING RESTRUCTURING OF ITS CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDER

São Paulo, April 10, 2006 – GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes (NYSE: GOL and Bovespa: GOLL4), Brazil’s low-cost, low-fare airline, informs that its controlling shareholder, Aeropar Participações S.A. (“Aeropar”), concluded, on March 17, 2006, a restructuring of its corporate shareholdings, by means of which 31,493,863 preferred shares of GOL, held by Aeropar, were transferred to the Fundo de Investimento em Participações Asas, registered in the CNPJ/MF under no. 07.672.313/0001 -35 (“Fund”). Comporte Participações S.A. (“Comporte”) also transferred its 3,351,775 preferred shares of GOL to the same Fund. The shares transferred to the Fund were not part of GOL’s free float.

As a result of these two transfers, the Fund now holds 34,845,638 preferred GOL shares, equivalent to 40.27% of this share class and 17.78% of GOL’s total capital. Aeropar and the Fund jointly hold 73.6% of GOL’s total capital.

The restructuring of the Aeropar and Comporte corporate shareholdings did not alter the final beneficiaries (individuals) of both companies. The Fund’s only quota-holders are the same final beneficiaries of both Aeropar and Comporte, the previous holders of the GOL preferred shares transferred to the Asas Fund. There was no change whatsoever in the shareholding control (individuals) or the management structure of GOL as a result of this restructuring.
