A free translation from Portuguese into English of Independent Auditor’s Report on quarterly financial statements prepared in Brazilian currency in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB)
The Shareholders, Board of Directors and Officers
Telefônica Brasil S.A.
São Paulo - SP
We have reviewed the individual and consolidated interim financial information of Telefônica Brasil S.A., (“Company”), contained in the Quarterly Information Form (ITR) for the quarter ended June 30, 2015, which comprise the balance sheet as at June 30, 2015 and the related statements of income, of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the three-month and six-month period then ended, including other explanatory information.
Management is responsible for the preparation of the individual and consolidated interim financial information in accordance with Accounting Pronouncement CPC 21 (R1) and with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), as well as for the presentation of this information in conformity with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information (ITR). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and International Standards on Review Engagements (NBC TR 2410 and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion on the individual and consolidated interim financial information
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the individual and consolidated interim financial information included in the Quarterly Information Form (ITR) referred to above was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21 (R1) and IAS 34 applicable to the preparation of Quarterly Information (ITR), and presented consistently with the rules issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM).
Other matters
Statements of value added
We have also reviewed the individual and consolidated interim statements of value added (SVA) for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015, prepared under management’s responsibility, whose presentation in the interim financial information is required by rules issued by the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) applicable to preparation of Quarterly Information (ITR), and as supplementary information under IFRS, which do not require SVA presentation. This statement has been subject to the same review procedures previously described and, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that it is not fairly presented fairly, in all material respects, in relation to the overall accompanying interim financial information.
Audit of the balance sheet as of December 31, 2014 and review of the interim statements of income, of comprehensive income, of changes in equity, of cash flows and of value added for the three-month and six-month period ended June 30, 2014
The balance sheet as of December 31, 2014, presented for comparison purposes, was previously audited by other independent auditors, who issued an unmodified report dated February 12, 2015. In addition, the interim statements of income, of comprehensive income, of changes in equity, of cash flows and of value added for the three-month and six-month period ended June 30, 2014, presented for comparison purposes, were reviewed by other independent auditors, who issued an unmodified report dated July 29, 2014.

Also, the Company is authorized to render STFC services in Regions I and II of the General Service Concession Plan (“PGO”) and other telecommunications services, such as SCM (data communication, including broadband internet), SMP (Personal Communication Services) and SEAC (Conditional Access Audiovisual Services) (especially by means of DTH and cable technologies).
Service concessions and authorizations are granted by Brazil’s Telecommunications Regulatory Agency (“ANATEL”), under the terms of Law No. 9472 of July 16, 1997 - General Telecommunications Law (“Lei Geral das Telecomunicações” - LGT), amended by Laws No. 9986 of July 18, 2000 and No. 12485 of September 12, 2011. Operation of such concessions and authorizations is subject to supplementary regulations and plans issued.
b.1) STFC service concession arrangement
The Company is the grantee on an STFC concession to render land-line services in the local network and national long distance calls originated in sector 31 of Region III, which comprises the state of São Paulo (except for cities within sector 33), as established in the General Service Concession Plan (PGO).
In accordance with the service concession arrangement, every two years, during the arrangement’s 20-year term, the Company shall pay a fee equivalent to 2% of its prior-year STFC revenue, net of applicable taxes and social contribution taxes (Note 21).
The Company’s current STFC service concession arrangement is effective until December 31, 2025, and may be subject to reviews on December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2020.
Global Village Telecom S.A. (“GVT”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of GVT Participações S.A. (“GVTPart”), is engaged in the provision of STFC, SCM and pay-TV (SEAC) services throughout Brazil. ANATEL granted GVT the right to operate STFC in Region II of the PGO and a license to operate local and long-distance services in the Brazilian territory. In November 2006, GVT received the remaining licenses of STFC services for all of the Brazilian regions (the company was authorized to provide such services only in part of these regions). This granted the company the STFC license for the whole territory. GVT also has licenses to provide SCM and SEAC services in the entire Brazilian territory.

c) Agreement between Telefónica S.A. and Telecom Italia, S.p.A.
TELCO S.p.A. (“TELCO”) has a 22.4% interest with voting rights in Telecom Italia, S.p.A. (“Telecom Italia”), and is the majority shareholder of this company.
Telefónica S.A holds an indirect control in Telefonica Brasil, and Telecom Italia holds an indirect interest in TIM S.A. (“TIM”), a Brazilian telecommunications company. Neither Telefónica, nor Telefônica Brasil or any other affiliate of Telefónica interfere in, are involved with or have decision-making powers over TIM operations in Brazil, also being lawfully and contractually forbidden to exercise any type of political power derived from indirect interest in relation to TIM operations in Brazil. TIM (Brazil) and Telefônica Brasil compete in all markets in which they operate in Brazil under permanent competitive stress and, in this context, as well as in relation to the other economic players in the telecommunications industry, maintain usual and customary contractual relations with one another (many of which are regulated and inspected by ANATEL) and/or which, as applicable, are informed to ANATEL and CADE, concerning the commitments assumed before these agencies so as to ensure total independence of their operations.
On September 24, 2013, Telefónica S.A entered into an agreement with the other shareholders of TELCO, whereby Telefónica subscribed and paid up capital in TELCO through a contribution of 324 million euros, receiving shares without voting rights of TELCO as consideration. As a result of this capital increase, the share capital of Telefónica with voting rights in TELCO remained unchanged, although their economic participation rose to 66%. Thus, the governance of TELCO, as well as the obligations of Telefónica S.A to abstain from participating in or influencing the decisions that impact the industries where they both operate, remained unchanged.
In the same document, the Italian shareholders of TELCO granted to Telefónica the option to acquire all TELCO’s shares, and such option is conditioned on prior competition defense and telecommunications approvals that are required (including in Brazil and Argentina).
On June 16, 2014, the Italian shareholders of TELCO decided to exercise their rights to request spin-off ensured by the Shareholders' Agreement of the company. This spin-off was approved by the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting of TELCO held on July 9, 2014, and was subject to prior authorization by relevant authorities, including CADE and ANATEL in Brazil.

On December 22, 2014 and March 12, 2015, ANATEL authorized TELCO’s spin-off, in a transaction impacting the swap transaction conducted with Vivendi S.A. (“Vivendi”), based on Rulings No. 429/2014-CD and No. 87/2015-CD, respectively. The swap transaction agreed by and between Telefónica and Vivendi, Vivendi would exchange all its voting shares and part of its non-voting shares held in the Company for an indirect interest held by Telefónica in Telecom Itália (Note 3), subject to certain conditions, such as prohibiting Vivendi to increase its interest in the Company.
The 61st ordinary session of CADE’s Trial Court, held on March 25, 2015, approved TELCO’s spin-off and the swap transaction agreed upon between Telefónica and Vivendi, subject to the execution of three concentration control agreements.
2) BASIS OF PREPARATION AND PRESENTATION OF QUARTERLY INFORMATION
2.1) Statement of Compliance
The individual quarterly information (Company) was prepared and is presented in accordance with accounting practices adopted in Brazil, which comprise the rules issued by CVM, and with CPC 21 - Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the Brazilian FASB (CPC), which are in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).
The consolidated quarterly information (Consolidated) was prepared and is presented in accordance with CPC 21 and IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, issued by IASB, and CVM rules.
At a meeting held on July 15, 2015, the Executive Board authorized the issue of this quarterly information, which was ratified by the Board of Directors at a meeting held on July 27, 2015.
2.2) Basis of preparation and presentation
The Company’s quarterly information for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 is presented in thousands of reais (unless otherwise stated) and was prepared under a going concern assumption.
This quarterly information compares the quarters ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, except the balance sheets, in which the positions at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 are compared.
As a result of the consolidation of GVTPart (Note 3) as of May 1, 2015, the financial information as at June 30, 2015 is not comparable to the information as at December 31 and June 30, 2014.
This quarterly information was prepared pursuant to the accounting principles, practices and criteria consistent with those adopted in preparing the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 (Note 3 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Practices”) and must be analyzed jointly with the referred to financial statements.
Certain accounts in the tables of these notes to quarterly information and the Statement of Value-Added were reclassified so as to allow comparison of information for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, as applicable.
On the date of preparation of this quarterly information, the following IFRS amendments had been published; however, their application was not compulsory:
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, issue of final version: This standard encompasses all phases of the financial instruments project and replaces IAS 39 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement and all prior versions of IFRS 9. It introduces new requirements for classification and measurement, impairment loss and hedge accounting. This standard is applicable as from the year beginning on January 1, 2018, and its early adoption is not permitted. Its retrospective application is required; however, the presentation of comparative information is not mandatory. Early adoption of previous versions of IFRS 9 (2009, 2010 and 2013) is permitted if the initial application date falls before February 1, 2015. The adoption of IFRS 9 will impact the classification and measurement of the Company’s financial assets, but it will not impact the classification and measurement of its financial liabilities.

IFRS 10 and IAS 28 Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture, revision: This standard determines the accounting treatment for transactions involving assets between an investor and its associates or joint ventures. This standard is applicable as from the year beginning on January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect any significant impacts on its financial position.
IFRS 10, 12 and IAS 28 Investment Entities: Applying the Consolidation Exception, revision: This standard addresses the requirements for financial statements disclosure for an investment entity. This standard is applicable for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2017. The Company does not expect any significant impacts on its financial position.
IFRS 11 Accounting for Acquisitions of Interests in Joint Operations, revision: The amendments to this standard require that a joint investor, which records the acquisition of interest in a joint operation that is a business, apply the relevant IFRS 3 principles applicable to business combination. The amendments further clarify that the interest previously held in a joint operation is not remeasured upon acquisition of additional interest in the same joint operation, while the joint control is held. In addition, a scope exclusion was added to IFRS 11 in order to specify that the amendments are not applicable when the parties sharing joint control, including the reporting entity, are under the common control of the main controlling party. The amendments apply both to the acquisition of final interest in a joint operation and the acquisition of any additional interest in the same joint operation, and are effective prospectively as from the year beginning on January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect significant impacts on its financial position.
IFRS 14 Regulatory Deferral Accounts, issue: This standard is optional and allows a company that conducts rate-regulated activities to continue applying most of its accounting policies on regulatory deferral account balances, upon first-time adoption of IFRS. The companies that adopt IFRS 14 must present regulatory deferral account balances as separate accounts in the balance sheets and in other comprehensive income. This standard requires disclosures on the nature and risks associated with company’s regulated rates and the effects of such regulation on the financial statements. This standard is applicable as from the year beginning on January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect any significant impacts on its financial position, since it has already been preparing its financial statements based on the effective IFRS.
IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, issue: This standard requires that an entity recognize revenue, reflecting the consideration expected to be received in exchange of the control over goods or services. When adopted, this standard will replace most part of the current guidance on revenue recognition (standards IAS 11, IAS 18, IFRIC 13, IFRC 15 and IFRIC 18). This standard is applicable as from the year beginning on January 1, 2017, and it may be adopted retrospectively, or using a cumulative effect approach. The Company is evaluating the impacts on its quarterly information and disclosures, and has neither defined the transition method nor determined the potential impacts on its financial reports yet.
IAS 1 Disclosure Initiative, review: This standard addresses changes in the overall financial statements of a company. This standard is applicable for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect any significant impacts on its financial position.
IAS 16 and IAS 38 Clarification of Acceptable Methods of Depreciation and Amortization, revision: The amendments clarify the depreciation and amortization methods, subject to the alignment to the concept of future economic benefits expected from the use of assets over its economic useful life. This standard is applicable for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect any significant impacts on its financial position.

3) ACQUISITION OF GVT PARTICIPAÇÕES S.A. (“GVTPart.”)
Pursuant to and for the purposes of CVM Rule No. 358/02, the Company informed the market that its Special Shareholders’ Meeting (“AGE”) held on May 28, 2015 approved the ratification of the Stock Purchase Agreement and Other Covenants executed by the Company, in the capacity of “Buyer”, and Vivendi and its subsidiaries (Société d’Investissements et de Gestion 108 SAS - “FrHolding108” and Société d’Investissements et de Gestion 72 S.A.), in the capacity of “Sellers”, whereby all the shares issued by GVTPart were acquired by the Company.
Payment for acquisition of GVTPart shares was made as follows:
· €4,663,000,000.00 paid in cash after contractual adjustments on the execution date; and
· Company-issued shares delivered to FRHolding108 as a result of the merger of GVTPart shares by the Company, representing 12% of the Company’s capital stock after the merger of shares.
As a result of the merger of GVTPart shares, the Company’s capital increased by R$9,666,021, with the issuance of 68,597,306 common shares and 134,320,885 preferred shares, all registered, no-par value shares, based on the economic value of merged shares calculated using the discounted cash flow method and on the appraisal report on GVTPart’s economic value prepared by an expert firm, in conformity with article 252, paragraph 1, together with article 8, of Law No. 6404/76. The difference between the economic value of merged shares and the market value of shares issued on the transaction closing date was recognized in “Other Capital Reserves”, in the amount of R$1,188,707.
This transaction was subject to obtaining the applicable corporate and regulatory authorizations, including Brazil’s Administrative Council for Economic Defense (“CADE”) and ANATEL, in addition to other conditions among those usually applicable to this kind of transaction. The transaction was approved by ANATEL under Act No. 448 of January 22, 2015 and published in the Federal Register (“DOU”) on January 26, 2015, and by CADE at the 61st ordinary session of its Trial Court, held on March 25, 2015, and published in the Federal Register (“DOU”) on March 31, 2015.

(5) This refers to goodwill recorded on the acquisition of GVTPart based on expected synergies resulting from the business combination, which may be used for tax purposes, as a nondeductible portion currently estimated at R$577,827, which is under review and adjustments to determine the fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed from GVTPart. This review is expected to be completed shortly, as soon as management has all significant information about the facts, limited to a period not exceeding 12 months after the date of acquisition.
The main purpose of the Company’s acquisition of control over GVTPart was to enable the integration of land-line, mobile, data and TV telecommunication services in Brazil, with a view to operating more effectively. The acquisition of GVTPart allows the Company to obtain significant synergies in revenues and costs, generating cross-selling opportunities both personally and in the corporate market, and also allows the optimization of investments, improve service quality, reduce content costs, acquisition platform and in business cable TV, due to economies with increased scale and, finally, the reduction of general and administrative expenses, not affecting the potential growth of the Company.
The methods and assumptions used to determine the fair values were:
Customer portfolio
The customer portfolio was valued using the MEEM method (“Multi-period Excess Earnings Method”), which is based on a discounted cash flow calculation of future economic benefits attributable to the customer base, net of eliminated liabilities for contributions involving its generation. In order to estimate the remaining useful life of the customer portfolio, an analysis of the average length of customer relationships was conducted using a churn method.
The purpose of the useful life analysis is to estimate a survival curve that anticipates future churn rates in relation to the existing customer base. The so-called Iowa curves were used as an approximation to the customer survival curve. The fair value allocated to the customer portfolio on the acquisition date was R$2,414,000, which will be amortized over 7.77 years on average.
Brand
The fair value of “GVT” brand was determined through the "relief-from-royalty” method. This method measures the value of the asset by capitalizing the royalties saved by owning intellectual property. In other words, the owner of the brand profits from owning the intangible asset, rather than having to pay royalties for its use. The royalties saved were determined by applying a market royalty rate (expressed as a percentage of revenue) to the future expected revenues from the sale of the product or service associated with the intangible asset. The market royalty rate, normally expressed as a percentage of net revenue, is the rate a knowledgeable willing owner would charge a knowledgeable willing user for use of an asset it owns in an arm’s length transaction. The fair value allocated to the brand on the acquisition date was R$37,000, which will be amortized over 1.5 year.
Contingent Consideration
As part of the Stock Purchase Agreement and Other Covenants executed by the Company and Vivendi for the acquisition of all GVTPart-issued shares, a contingent consideration was defined for the court deposits made by GVT for the monthly installments of deferred income and social contribution taxes on the amortization of goodwill arising from the corporate restructuring process completed by GVT in 2013. In September 2014, GVT filed for a cancellation of the judicial review and the return of amounts deposited with the courts.
If GVT succeeds in receiving (being reimbursed, refunded of or netting) these funds, they will be returned to Vivendi, as long as they are obtained in a final unappealable decision. The period for returning such amount is 15 years.

The fair value of the contingent consideration on the acquisition date is R$344,217, recorded in the Company’s noncurrent liabilities as “Loans, financing, lease and contingent consideration” (Note 20), which is subject to monthly monetary adjustments based on the Selic rate.
Fair value of Contingent Liabilities
According to IFRS 3(R) Business Combinations, the acquirer must recognize, on the acquisition date, contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination, even if it is not probable that cash outflows will be required to settle the obligation, as long as it is a present obligation arising from past events and its fair value can be measured reliably. In compliance with these requirements, contingent liabilities were recognized in this acquisition at a fair value of R$429,078, which were determined considering the expected cash outflow required to settle the obligation on the acquisition date (Note 18).

Provisions and labor contingencies involve labor claims filed by former employees and employees at outsourced companies (the later alleging joint or subsidiary liability) claiming for, among other issues, overtime, salary equalization, post-retirement salary supplements, job hazard premium, additional for unhealthy work conditions and claims related to outsourced services.
The Company is also defendant in labor claims filed by retired former employees regarding the Medical Care Plan for Retired Employees (PAMA), which require, among other issues, the annulment of the change occurred in such plan. Most claims await decision by the Regional Labor Court of São Paulo. Based on the opinion of its legal advisors and the current jurisdictional benefits, management considers this claim as a possible risk. No amount has been allocated for these claims, since in the case of loss, it is not possible to estimate the Company’s loss.
Additionally, the Company is a party to public civil actions filed by the Department of Labor, in respect to the decision to restrain the Company from continuing to hire outsourced companies to carry out the Company’s core activities. No amounts were allocated to the possible likelihood of an unfavorable outcome related to these public civil actions in the table above, since in these phases, in the event of loss, it is not possible to estimate the Company’s monetary loss.

· Public Interest Suit in which the Company is involved referring to the Community Telephone Plan (PCT), about the right for indemnification of the acquirers of expansion plans, not receiving shares for financial investments made in the city of Mogi das Cruzes, whose total consolidated amount approximates to R$381,224 at June 30, 2015 (R$336,758 at December 31, 2014). The São Paulo Court of Justice (TJSP) changed its decision, and judged this matter groundless. The carriers association of Mogi das Cruzes (plaintiff) filed a special appeal to reverse that decision, which is currently waiting for a decision.
· Collective Action filed by SISTEL Participants' Association (ASTEL) in the state of São Paulo, in which SISTEL associates in the state of São Paulo challenge the changes made in the Medical Care Plan for Retired Employees (PAMA) and claim for the reestablishment of the prior status quo. This proceeding is still in the appeal phase, and awaits a decision as regards the possible admission of the Special and Additional Appeals in connection with the Court of Appeals' decision, which changed the decision rendering the matter groundless. The amount cannot be estimated, and the claims cannot be settled due to their unenforceability, in that it entails a return to the prior plan conditions.

· Public Interest Suits filed by ASTEL, in the state of São Paulo, and by FENAPAS, both against SISTEL, the Company and other carriers, in order to annul spin-off of the private pension plan PBS, alleging, in short, the “windup of the supplementary private pension plan of SISTEL Foundation”, which led to various specific mirror PBS plans, corresponding to allocation of funds from technical surplus and tax contingencies existing at the time of the spin-off. The amount cannot be estimated, and the claims cannot be settled due to their unenforceability because this involves the return of the spun-off assets of SISTEL referring to telecommunication carries of the former Telebrás System.
· The Public Prosecutor’s Office of São Paulo State began a public class action claiming moral and property damages suffered by all consumers of telecommunications services from 2004 to 2009 due to the bad quality of services and failures of the communications system. The Public Prosecutor’s Office suggested that the indemnification to be paid should be R$ 1 billion. The decision handed down on April 20, 2010 imposes the payment of indemnification for damages caused to all consumers who have filed a suit for such damages.
Conversely, in the event that the number of claiming consumers is not in line with the extent of damages, after the lapsing of one year, the judge determined that the amount of R$ 60 million should be deposited in the Special Expenses Fund to Recover Natural Rights Damages (Fundo Especial de Despesa de Reparação de Interesses Difusos Lesados). It is not possible to estimate the number of consumers who will individually file suits, or the amounts claimed thereby. The parties filed an appeal on the merits of the case. The judgment effects are in abeyance. No amount has been assigned to the possible likelihood of an unfavorable outcome in connection with this action, since, in the case of loss, estimating the corresponding amount payable by the Company is not practicable at this time. Likewise, establishing a provision for contingency equivalent to the amount sought is not possible. On April 13, 2015, the Company’s appeal on the merits of the case was judged, and the decision handed down by the lower court was changed, by unanimous vote. Such decision sentenced the Company to pay for damages and pain and suffering caused to all consumers affected by "problems” in the services provided.
· The Company is party to other civil claims, at several levels, related to service rendering. Such claims have been filed by individual consumers, civil associations representing consumer rights or by the Bureau of Consumer Protection (PROCON), as well as by the Federal and State Public Prosecutor’s Office. The Company is also party to other claims of several types related to the normal course of business. At June 30, 2015, the consolidated provision amounted to R$1,957,298 (R$1,525,908 at December 31, 2014).
· The Company has received fines regarding noncompliance with SAC Decree. We currently have various actions (administrative and judicial proceedings). At June 30, 2015, the consolidated amount totaled R$11,964 (R$ 10,941 at December 31, 2014).
· Intellectual Property: Lune Projetos Especiais Telecomunicação Comércio e Ind. Ltda (Lune), a Brazilian company, proposed the lawsuit on November 20, 2001 against 23 wireless carriers claiming to own the patent for caller ID and the trademark "Bina". The purpose of that lawsuit was to interrupt provision of such service by carriers and to seek indemnification equivalent to the amount paid by consumers for using the service.
An unfavorable sentence was passed determining that the Company should refrain from selling mobile phones with Caller ID service (Bina), subject to a daily fine of R$ 10,000.00 in case of noncompliance. Furthermore, according to the sentence passed, the Company must pay indemnification for royalties, to be calculated in settlement. Motions for Clarification were opposed by all parties and Lune’s motions for clarification were accepted since an injunctive relief in this stage of the proceedings was deemed applicable. Bill of review appeal in view of the current decision which granted a stay of execution suspending that unfavorable decision until final judgment of the review. Bill of review for appeal at sentence phase pending decision. There is no way to determine the extent of potential liabilities with respect to this claim.

· The Company and other wireless carriers are defendants in several lawsuits filed by the Public Prosecutor’s Office and consumer associations to challenge imposition of a period to use prepaid minutes. The plaintiffs allege that the prepaid minutes should not expire after a specific period. Conflicting decisions were handed down by courts on the matter, even though we believe that our criteria for the period determination comply with ANATEL standards. Based on the legal counsel’s opinion, collective actions have a remote likelihood of loss.
Possible regulatory contingencies
According to the Company’s management and legal counsel, the likelihood of loss of the following regulatory civil proceedings is possible.
· The Company is party to administrative proceedings filed by ANATEL alleging noncompliance with the obligations set forth in industry regulations, as well as legal claims which discuss the sanctions applied by ANATEL at the administrative level. At June 30, 2015, the consolidated amount totaled R$3,057,141 (R$2,611,340 at December 31, 2014).
· Administrative and legal proceedings discussing payment of 2% charge on revenue from interconnection services due to the extension of right of use of SMP-related radiofrequencies. Under clause 1.7 of the Authorization Terms that grant right of use of SMP-related radiofrequencies, the extension of right of use of such frequencies entails payment every two years, during the extension period (15 years), of a 2% charge calculated on net revenue from the basic and alternative service plans of the service company, determined in the year before that of payment.
However, ANATEL determined that the 2% charge should be calculated on revenue from service plans and also on revenue from interconnection services and other operating income, which is not provided for by clause 1.7 of the referred to Authorization Terms.
Considering, based on the provisions of the Authorization Terms, that revenue from interconnection services should not be included in the calculation of the 2% charge for radiofrequency use right extension, the Company filed administrative and legal proceedings challenging these charges, based on ANATEL’s position.

Six-month period ended June 30, 2015
(In thousands of reais, unless otherwise stated)
According to its bylaws, the Company is authorized to increase its capital up to the limit of 1,850,000,000 (one billion, eight hundred fifty million) shares. The Board of Directors is the relevant body to decide about increase in the number and consequent issuance of new shares, within the authorized capital limit.
However, the Brazilian Corporation Law – Law No. 6404/76, article 166, IV – establishes that capital may be increased by means of a Special Shareholders’ Meeting resolution held to decide about amendments to the Articles of Incorporation, if authorized capital increase limit has been reached.
Capital increases do not necessarily have to observe the proportion between the numbers of shares of each type. However, the number of preferred shares, nonvoting or with restricted voting, must not exceed 2/3rd of the total shares issued.
Preferred shares are nonvoting, except for cases set forth in articles 9 and 10 of the bylaws, but have priority in the reimbursement of capital, without premium, and are entitled to dividends 10% higher than those paid on common shares, as per article 7 of the Company’s bylaws and item II, paragraph 1, article 17, of Law No. 6404/76.
Preferred shares will also have the right to vote if the Company fails to pay minimum dividend to which they are entitled, for three consecutive financial years. Such right shall be kept until payment of said dividend.
b) Premium on acquisition of noncontrolling interests
In accordance the with accounting practices adopted in Brazil previously to the adoption of the IFRS/CPC, goodwill was recorded when shares were acquired at a higher value than their carrying amount, generated by the difference between the carrying amount of shares acquired and the transaction’s fair value. With the adoption of IAS 27R (IFRS 10 since 2013)/CPC 35 and CPC 36, the effects of all acquisition of shares from non-controlling shareholders are recorded under equity when there is no change in the controlling shareholding. Consequently, these transactions no longer generate goodwill or income, and the goodwill previously generated from acquisition from non-controlling shareholders was adjusted matched against the Company’s equity. The balance of this account at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was R$ 70,448.
c) Capital reserves
c.1) Special goodwill reserve
This represents the tax benefit generated by the merger of Telefônica Data do Brasil Ltda. which will be capitalized in favor of the controlling shareholder after tax credits are realized under the terms of CVM Rule No. 319/99. The balance of this account at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was R$63,074.
c.2) Other capital reserves
Other capital reserves are issue or capitalization in excess, in relation to the basic share value at the issue date.
On March 12, 2015, the Special Shareholders’ Meeting approved the cancellation of 2,332,686 shares issued by the Company, held in treasury, of which 251,440 are common and 2,081,246 are preferred shares, in the amount of R$112,107.
The direct costs (net of taxes) related to the Company's capital increases resulting from the Primary Offering were recognized under this heading at the amount of R$ 66,588.

NOTES TO QUARTERLY INFORMATION
Six-month period ended June 30, 2015
(In thousands of reais, unless otherwise stated)
The difference between the economic value of the merged shares and the market value of the shares issued at the transaction closing date was recognized under this heading at the amount of R$ 1,188,707.
The balance of this account at June 30, 2015 was R$1,368,528 (R$2,735,930 at December 31, 2014).
c.3) Treasury stock
Company treasury shares stem from the following processes: i) merger of TDBH (in 2006); ii) merger of Vivo Participações shares (in 2011), and iii) repurchase of common and preferred shares. On March 12, 2015, the Special Shareholders’ Meeting approved the cancellation of 2,332,686 shares issued by the Company, held in treasury, of which 251,440 are common and 2,081,246 are preferred shares.
Due to the approval of the acquisition of control of GVTPart., common and preferred Company shareholders who dissented from the decision taken at the Special Shareholders’ Meeting, have the right to withdraw from the Company through reimbursement of the value of shares for proven holders on September 19, 2014 (inclusive), as disclosed in the Notice to Shareholders dated September 25, 2014. The reimbursement amount for common and preferred shares under right to withdrawal and calculated based on Company equity in accordance with the financial statement for the year ended December 31, 2014, corresponds to R$ 40.02 per share.
The redemption value per share was reduced by the amount corresponding to dividends declared by the Company on January 30, 2015 and April 9, 2015, since the value of dividends declared composed the book value per share at December 31, 2014. Consequently, the book value per share adjusted on the base date of December 31, 2014 is R$ 37.55 per common or equity share. The total amount relating to shareholders that exercise the right to withdraw was R$ 86,023.
The balance of this account at June 30, 2015 was R$ 86,023 (R$ 112,107 at December 31, 2014).
d) Income reserves
d.1) Legal reserve
This legal reserve is set up by allocation of 5% of the net income for the year, up to the limit of 20% of the paid-up capital. Legal reserve will only be used to increase capital and offset accumulated losses. The balance of this account at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 was R$ 1,532,630.
d.2) Tax incentive reserve
The Company has State VAT (ICMS) tax benefits in the states of Minas Gerais and Espírito Santo, referring to credits approved by the relevant bodies of said states, in connection with investments in the installation of SMP support equipment, fully operational, in accordance with the rules in force, ensuring that the localities listed in the call for bid be included in the SMP coverage area.
The portion of profit subject to the incentive was excluded from dividend calculation, and may be used only in the event of capital increase or loss absorption.
The balance of this account at June 30, 2015 was R$ 3,069 (R$ 1,849 at December 31, 2014).

Telefônica Brasil S. A.
NOTES TO QUARTERLY INFORMATION
Six-month period ended June 30, 2015
(In thousands of reais, unless otherwise stated)
These amounts were recorded as expenses with personnel under the General and administrative expenses (Note 24).
For the three-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, our Directors and Officers did not receive any pension, retirement pension or other similar benefits.
30) INSURANCE
The policy of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as of Telefónica Group, includes maintenance of insurance coverage for all assets and liabilities involving significant and high-risk amounts, based on management’s judgment and following Telefónica S.A.’s corporate program guidelines. Risk assumptions adopted, given their nature, are not included in quarterly information (ITR) audit scope and, as a result, were not reviewed by our independent auditor.
At June 30, 2015, maximum limits of claims (established pursuant the agreements of each company consolidated by the Company) for significant assets, liabilities or interests covered by insurance and their respective amounts were R$850,000 for operational risks (with loss of profit) and R$75,000 for general civil liability.
31) SHARE-BASED PAYMENT PLAN
The Company's controlling shareholder, Telefónica S.A., has different share-based payment plans, which were also offered to management and employees of its subsidiaries, among which, Telefónica Brasil and TData.
Fair value of options is estimated on the grant date, based on the binomial model for pricing options which considers terms and conditions of instruments granted.
The Company refunds Telefónica S.A. for the fair value of the benefit granted to management and employees on grant date.
Significant plans effective as of June 30, 2015 are detailed below:
a) Performance & Investment Plan (PIP)
The General Shareholders' Meeting of Telefónica S.A., held on May 18, 2011, approved a long-term program to acknowledge the commitment, differentiated performance and high potential of its executives at global level, by granting them Telefónica S.A. shares.
Participants of the plan need not pay for the shares initially granted to them and may increase the number of shares to be possible received by the end of the plan if they decide for a joint investment in their PIP. Co-investment requires that the participant buy and maintain, to the end of the cycle, a number equivalent to 25% of shares initially granted thereto by Telefónica S.A. On participant’s co-investment, Telefónica S.A. will increase initial shares by 25%.
Initially, the plan is expected to remain effective for three years. The cycles are independent of one another. The number of shares is reported at the beginning of the cycle and, after three years from grant date, shares are transferred to the participant if goals are achieved.
Granting of shares is conditional upon: (i) maintenance of active employment relationship within the Telefónica Group on the cycle consolidation date; and (ii) achievement, by Telefónica, of results representing fulfillment of the objectives established for the plan. The level of success is based on the comparison of the growth in shareholder return considering price and dividends (Total Shareholder Return - TSR) of Telefónica share, vis-à-vis the evolution of TSRs corresponding to a number of companies quoted in the telecommunications industry, which correspond to the Comparison Group.

(In thousands of reais, unless otherwise stated)
In 2014, extension of this program for other 3 cycles of 3 years each was approved, beginning on October 1, 2014 until September 30, 2017. The number of shares is informed at the beginning of the cycle and after the period of 3 years from the granting date, also shares are transferred to participants if the TSR target is achieved.
The next examples are scheduled as follows:
· The 2012-2015 cycle takes place in June 2015 with 68 Company executives (including two named executives nominated under the Statute), holding the right to potentially receive 266,140 Telefónica S.A. shares.
· The 2013-2016 cycle takes place in June 2016 with 82 Company executives (including two named executives nominated under the Statute), holding the right to potentially receive 330,338 Telefónica S.A. shares.

Hybrid = Plan that offers both BD and CD-type benefits. Defined Contributions. (2) Except the CELPREV plan, managed by Sistel. |
The details about the aforementioned plans are the same disclosed in Note 32 – Post-Employment Benefit Plans of the Company’s financial statements at December 31, 2014.
The defined benefit obligation is composed of different components, based on the characteristics of each pension plan, and may comprise the actuarial liability of official pension supplementation obligations, health care subsidy to retirees and their dependents and indemnity for death and disability of the participants. This obligation is exposed to economic and demographic risks, such as: (i) restatements of medical costs that may impact the cost of health care plans; (ii) salary increase; (iii) long-term inflation rate; (iv) nominal discount rate; and (v) life expectancy of participants and retirees.
The fair value of plan assets is mainly composed of fixed-income investments (NTN’s, LFT’s, LTN’s, repurchase agreements, CDB’s, debentures, financial bills and FIDC shares) and variable-income investments (shares of large companies, with good reputation in the market and high liquidity, as well as in market indices-pegged investments). Due to the concentration of fixed and variable-income investments, the plan assets are mainly exposed to the risks inherent in the financial market and the economic scenario, such as: (i) market risk in economic sectors in which variable-income investments are concentrated; (ii) risk of events impacting the economic scenario and market indices in which variable-income investments are concentrated; and (iii) long-term inflation rate which may consume profitability of fixed-income investments.
All revenue and expenses relating to the defined benefit plan and the hybrid benefit plan as well as the employee contributions, cost of current services, interest on the net actuarial liabilities are recognized directly in the Company´s operating income and that of TData.

33) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
a) Derivative transactions
All derivative instruments held by the Company and GVTPart. are intended to hedge against the currency risk arising from assets and liabilities in foreign currency, against inflation risk from its debenture and its lease indexed to IPCA (inflation rate), and against the risk of changes in TJLP of a portion of debt with the BNDES. As such, any changes in risk factors generate an adverse effect on the matching entry proposed to hedge. Therefore, there are no derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes and the possible exchange risks are hedged.

Derivative contracts have specific provisions for penalty in case of breach of contract. A breach of contract provided for in the agreements made with financial institutions is characterized by breach of a clause, resulting in the early settlement of the contract.
Fair value of derivative financial instruments
The valuation method used to calculate market value of financial liabilities (where applicable) and derivative instruments was the discounted cash flows method, considering expected settlement or realization of liabilities and assets at market rates in force as at the balance sheet date.
Fair values are calculated by projecting future operating flows, using BM&FBovespa curves, and discounting to present value through market DI rates for swaps, as informed by BM&FBovespa.
The market values of exchange rate derivatives were obtained through market currency rates in force at the balance sheet date and projected market rates were obtained from currency coupon curves. The coupon for positions indexed to foreign currencies was determined using the 360-calendar-day straight-line convention; the coupon for positions indexed by CDI was determined using the 252-workday exponential convention.
Derivative financial instruments consolidated below are registered with the Brazils’ OTC Clearing House (CETIP), all classified as swaps, and not requiring margin deposits.

For the purpose of preparing the quarterly information (ITR), the Company and GVTPart adopted hedge accounting for its foreign currency X CDI, IPCA x CDI and TJLP x CDI swap transactions providing financial debt hedge. According to this methodology, both derivative and covered risk are valued at their fair value.
The ineffective portion at June 30, 2015 amounted to R$2,529 (R$2,195 at December 31, 2014).
The amount recorded in other comprehensive income referring to swaps and NDF contracts designated as cash flow hedge at June 30, 2015 was positive at R$8,171 (positive at R$331,332 at December 31, 2014). These cash flow hedge transactions generated a positive result of R$39,891 at June 30, 2015 (positive at R$19,742 at December 31, 2014).
At June 30, 2015 and 2014, the transactions with derivatives generated positive and consolidated negative (net) result of R$261,613 and R$115,676, respectively (Note 26 ).
Sensitivity analysis to the Company’s risk variables
Telefônica Brasil S. A.
NOTES TO QUARTERLY INFORMATION
Six-month period ended June 30, 2015
(In thousands of reais, unless otherwise stated)
CVM Rule No. 604/09 requires listed companies to disclose, in addition to the provisions of Technical Pronouncement CPC No. 40 - Financial Instruments: Disclosure (equivalent to IFRS 7), a table showing the sensitivity analysis of each type of market risk inherent in financial instruments considered significant by management and to which the Company is exposed at the closing date of each reporting period, including all operations involving derivative financial instruments.
Pursuant to the abovementioned, each transaction with derivative financial instruments was assessed, taking into consideration a probable realization scenario and two scenarios that may generate adverse results to the Company or GVTPart.
In the probable scenario the assumption considered was to keep, on the maturity dates of each transaction, what the market has been showing through BM&FBovespa market curves (currency and interest). Thus, in the probable scenario, there is no impact on the fair value of derivative financial instruments already presented above. For scenarios II and III, pursuant to the CVM Rule, a deterioration of 25% and 50%, respectively, was considered in the risk variables.
As the Company and GVTPart has only derivative instruments to hedge their assets and liabilities in foreign currency, the changes in scenarios are followed by the respective hedged items, thus indicating that the effects are virtually null. For these operations, the Company reported the value of the hedged item and of the derivative financial instrument in separate lines in the sensitivity analysis table in order to provide information on consolidated net exposure for each of the three scenarios mentioned, as follows:

NOTES TO QUARTERLY INFORMATION
Six-month period ended June 30, 2015
(In thousands of reais, unless otherwise stated)
For calculation of the net exposure of the sensitivity analysis, all derivatives were considered at market value and only the hedged items designated under the fair value hedge accounting methodology were also considered at their fair value.
The fair values stated in the chart above derives from a portfolio position at June 30, 2015; however, they do not reflect the expected realization due to the market fluctuations, which are constantly monitored by the Company and GVTPart. The use of different assumptions may affect significantly the estimates.
b) Fair Value
The Company and its subsidiaries made a valuation of their financial assets and liabilities in relation to market values based on available information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, both interpretation of market information and selection of methodologies require considerable judgment and reasonable estimates in order to produce adequate realizable values. Consequently, the estimates presented do not necessarily indicate the amounts that could be realized in the current market. The use of different market hypothesis and/or methodologies may have a significant effect on the estimated realizable values. At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company and its subsidiaries detected no significant or prolonged impairment in the recoverable amount of its financial instruments.
The tables below present breakdown of financial assets and liabilities at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

c) Capital Management and Risk Management Policy
Capital management
The objective of the Company capital management is to maintain a solid credit rating with the institutions as well as optimal capital ratio to support the Company businesses and maximize value to shareholders.
The Company manages its capital structure by making adjustments and adapting to current economic conditions. For this purpose, the Company may pay dividend, raise new loans, issue promissory notes and contract derivative transactions. For the period ended June 30, 2015, there were no changes in the Company’s objectives, policies or capital structure processes.
The Company and its subsidiaries include in the net debt structure the following balances: loans, financing, debentures, finance lease, contingent payment and operations with derivatives (Note 20), net of cash and cash equivalents (Note 4) and short-term investments as a guarantee of the BNB financing.

Risk management policy
The Company and its subsidiaries are exposed to several market risks as a result of its commercial operations, debts obtained to finance its activities and debt-related financial instruments.
The main market risk factors that affect the Company and its subsidiaries’ business are as follows:
a) Currency risk
There is a risk arising from the possibility of the Company and its subsidiaries incur losses due to fluctuations in exchange rates, which increase expenses derived from its loans taken out in foreign currency.
On June 30, 2015, 29.5% of the financial debt was denominated in foreign currency (15.9% at December 31, 2014). The Company and its subsidiaries take out derivative transactions (foreign exchange hedge) from financial institutions to hedge against exchange variation on its financial debt in foreign currency (R$3,295,126 and R$1,237,422 at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively). In view of this, total debt was covered by long position on currency hedge transactions (swap for CDI) on those dates.
Also, there is the exchange risk associated with non-financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency, which may generate a lower value receivable or a higher value payable, according to the exchange variation of the period.
Hedge transactions were taken out to minimize the currency risk related to these non-financial assets and liabilities in foreign currency. This balance is subject to daily changes due to business dynamics. However, the Company and its subsidiaries intend to cover the net balance of these rights and obligations (US$9,400 thousand and €22,200 thousand payable at June 30, 2015 and US$29,676 thousand and €20,700 thousand payable at December 31, 2014) to minimize the related currency risk.
b) Interest rate and inflation risk
This risk arises from the possibility that the Company incurs losses due to an unfavorable change in internal interest rates, which may negatively affect financial expenses connected with part of debentures pegged to CDI and derivative short position (exchange rate hedge, TJLP and IPCA) taken out at floating interest rates (CDI).
The debt to BNDES is restated by reference to the Long-Term Interest Rate (TJLP) variation, established quarterly by the National Monetary Council, which, in March 2015, decided to increase it to 6.00% p.a. from April 1 to June 30, 2015. TJLP increase was of 0.50 percentage point in relation to the rate previously in force, namely 5.50% p.a.
Telefônica Brasil S. A.
NOTES TO QUARTERLY INFORMATION
Six-month period ended June 30, 2015
(In thousands of reais, unless otherwise stated)
The risk of inflation arises from the debentures of 1st Issue - Minas Comunica, indexed by the IPCA, which may adversely affect our financial expenses in the event of an unfavorable change in this index.
In order to reduce the exposure to the domestic variable interest rate (CDI), the Company and its subsidiaries invest the excess of cash and cash equivalents, in the amount of R$6,977,265 (R$4,628,679 at December 31 2014), largely in short-term investments (Bank Deposit Certificates - CDB) based on the CDI variation. The book values of these financial instruments approximate their market values, as they are redeemable in the short term.
c) Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk refers to any circumstance in which the Company or its subsidiaries do not have sufficient funds to settle their commitments due to different currencies and realization/liquidity terms of their rights and obligations.
The Company and its subsidiaries organized the maturities of non-derivative financial instruments, as stated in Note 20, as well as their respective derivatives, as stated in the payment schedule disclosed on that Note, so as to not affect its liquidity.
The Company and its subsidiaries’ liquidity and cash flow is managed on a daily basis by management in order to ensure that the generation of operating cash and early fundraising, where necessary, are sufficient to maintain their schedule of commitments, not generating liquidity risks.
We set out below a summary maturity schedule of consolidated financial liabilities contractually provided for:

d) Credit risk
This risk arises from the possibility that the Company may incur losses due to the difficulty in receiving amounts billed to its customers and sales of handsets and pre-activated pre-paid cards to the distributor’s network.
The credit risk from trade accounts receivable is diversified and minimized by a strict control of the customers base. The Company constantly monitors the level of accounts receivable of post-paid plans and limits the risk of past-due accounts, interrupting access to telephone lines for past due bills. The mobile customer base predominantly uses the prepaid system, which requires prior charging and consequently entails no credit risk. There are exceptions to the telephony services which must be kept for national security or defense reasons.
The credit risk in the sale of handsets and “pre-activated” prepaid cards is managed under a conservative credit policy, by means of modern management methods, including the application of “credit scoring” techniques, analysis of financial statements and information, and consultation to commercial data bases, in addition to request of guarantees.
