Banco Bradesco S.A. informs its Stockholders and the Market that the Board of Directors, at a meeting held on this date, approved the proposal of the Board of Executive Officers for the Payment of Monthly Dividends to the Company’s stockholders, in replacement to the Monthly Interest on Own Capital.

The Monthly Dividends will benefit the stockholders registered in the Company’s records in the first business day of each month, and the payments will be made, by the declared amount, in the first business day of the subsequent month, by prepayment of the mandatory dividend.

Thus, the stockholders will receive, as of 5.2.2008, Monthly Dividends of R$0.018026250 per common stock and R$0.019828875 per preferred stock.
