Belo Horizonte, April 10, 2007.

Wilson Nélio Brumer

Chairman of the Board of Directors

Before the items on the agenda of this meeting were put to debate and the vote, the representative of the stockholder Southern Electric Brasil Participações Ltda. stated that the changes in the Bylaws made by the Extraordinary General Meeting of Stockholders of October 25, 1999, and also the subsequent meetings, were approved only by virtue of the suspension of the Stockholders’ Agreement, by decision of the judiciary, and were thus provisional and precarious.

He stated that hence the acts and operations practiced or submitted to approval by the management bodies of Cemig, supported by the said changes in the Bylaws made under the protection of the Court decision in force today, may, at any moment, be reviewed and withdrawn from the world of legal existence.

On this question, the representatives of the stockholder State of Minas Gerais reminded the meeting that the decision which annulled the Stockholders’ Agreement signed between the State of Minas Gerais and Southern Electric Brasil Participações Ltda. no longer has an interim or provisional character.

It is, he said, a decision on the merit and it is thus a case not of suspension but annulment.

7




He added that there is already in existence a decision on the merit that annuls the Stockholders’ Agreement confirmed by the Appeal Court of the State of Minas Gerais.

He further explained that the decisions of these Meetings can only take into account what exists in reality and at the present moment, and that it would be irresponsible not to vote on matters, in expectation of Court decisions, since, in reality, the said Stockholders’ Agreement, by force of Court judgment, cannot produce any effect and the decisions taken are taken within strict compliance with the Court decision.

Finally, he noted that the Extraordinary and Special Appeals brought by Southern were not admitted by the Vice-chairman of the Minas Gerais Appeal Court, and that the Higher Appeal Court refused the interlocutory and special appeals brought by Southern, thus underlining and reinforcing the legal situation already stated by the Minas Gerais Appeal Court, that is to say, the inefficacy of the Stockholders’ Agreement subject of the action.

In accordance with item 1 of the agenda the Chairman then placed in debate the Report of Management and the Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, and the respective complementary documents, explaining that they have been widely disclosed in the press, since they were placed at the disposal of stockholders by a notice published in the newspapers Minas Gerais, the official journal of the powers of the state, O Tempo and Gazeta Mercantil, on April 6, 7 and 8 this year, and published in Minas Gerais and in Gazeta Mercantil, on April 12 of this year, and in O Tempo, on April 18 of this year.

The Chairman then put to the vote the Report of Management and the Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, and the respective complementary documents, and they were approved, with the persons legally impeded abstaining.

Continuing the proceedings, the Chairman requested the Secretary to read the proposal by the Board of Directors, which deals with items 2, 3 and 6 to 13 of the agenda, and also the Opinions of the Audit Board thereon, the contents of which documents are as follows:

PROPOSAL OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS TO THE ORDINARY AND EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS TO BE HELD, TOGETHER, BY APRIL 30, 2007.

Dear Stockholders:

The Board of Directors of Companhia Energética de Minas Gerais –

whereas:

a)                                   Article 192 of Law 6404 of December 15, 1996 as amended, and the Bylaws, and the financial statements for the year 2006, presenting net profit of R$ 1,718,841,000;

b)                                  Article 199 of the same Law establishes that the profit reserve may not be greater than the registered capital and that, when this limit is reached, the Ordinary General Meeting of Stockholders shall decide on application of the excess in a capital increase or in distribution of dividends;

c)                                   on December 31, 2006, the value of the “Profit Reserves” of Cemig totaled R$ 1,841,570,000, after deduction of the amounts allocated for payment of obligatory and extraordinary dividends for 2006, resulting in an excess balance of R$ 220,032,000 over an above the registered capital of R$ 1,621,538,000;

d)                                  to comply with Article 199 of Law 6404 of December 15, 1997 as amended, an increase in the company’s registered capital should be carried out using the balance of the account in the Retained Earnings Reserve;

e)                                   expectations of the company’s profits indicate that if that increase in capital were carried out at the minimum percentage to meet the legislation, this practice might become annual;

f)                                     trading in the shares of Cemig as lots of 1,000 shares causes great operational difficulties for stock exchanges and other securities agents, and, further, to align the practices of the Brazilian market to

8




international standards, it has become essential to make a reverse split of the shares of the registered capital of Cemig;

g)                                  the proposed reserve split of the shares has the purpose of standardizing the parameters of trading adopted by the São Paulo Stock Exchange (Bovespa), which is orienting listed companies to adopt a unit quotation for their shares and no longer quotations per 1,000 shares, so as to provide better conditions for trading of the company’s shares;

– now proposes to you:

I)  allocation of the net profit for 2006, in the amount of R$ 1,718,841,000, as follows:

1)                                     R$ 85,942,000, being 5% of the net profit, to the Legal Reserve, in accordance with sub-clause “a” of the sole sub-paragraph of Clause 28 of the Bylaws;

2)                                     R$ 1,381,781,000 to be allocated for payment of dividend, to the shareholders of the company, corresponding to 80.39% of the net profit for the year 2006, representing R$ 10.60 per 1,000 shares, made up of:

a)                              R$ 884,781,000 in the form of obligatory dividends, made up of the following portions: R$ 169,067,000 in the form of Interest on Equity, payable to stockholders in the company’s Nominal Share Registry on May 11, 2006, as per CRCA-025/2006 of April 28, 2006; R$ 715,714,000 in the form of complementary dividends, to stockholders qualified on the date of decision of this proposal to the Ordinary General Meeting;

b)                             R$ 497,000,000 in the form of extraordinary dividends, also payable to the stockholders qualified on the date of decision on this proposal by the Ordinary General Meeting. The payment of the dividends and Interest on Equity shall be made in two installments, by June 30 and December 30, 2007. These payments may be brought forward, depending on availability of cash and the decision of the Executive Board;

3)                                   R$ 240,139,000 to be allocated to the Profit Reserve, for application in investments, payment of expenses, taxes and servicing of debt, according to the Annual Budget approved in the form of CRCA-061/2006, of December 22, 2006;

4)                                   R$ 1,159,000 to be allocated for injection into Companhia Transudeste de Transmissão, as per CRCA-048/2006 of September 29, 2006, this injection having been carried out in the business year of 2006;

Appendix 1 gives a summary of Cemig’s cash budget for the year 2007, approved by the Board of Directors, characterizing the inflow of funds and disbursements for compliance with the allocations of the profit for 2006.

Appendix 2 gives a summary of the calculation of the minimum dividend established by the legislation and the dividend proposed by the management, in accordance with the Bylaws.

II) approval of the increase in the registered capital from R$ 1,621,538,190.25 (one billion, six hundred and twenty one million, five hundred and thirty eight thousand, one hundred and ninety Reais and twenty five centavos), to R$ 2,432,307,285.38 (two billion, four hundred and thirty two million, three hundred and seven thousand, two hundred and eighty five Reais and thirty eight centavos) with issuance of new shares, upon capitalization of R$ 810,769,095.13 (eight hundred and ten million, seven hundred and sixty nine thousand and ninety five Reais and thirteen centavos) relating to the portion of the Retained Earnings Reserve, being

3) to approve reduction of the registered capital by R$ 5.38 (five Reais and thirty eight centavos), from R$ 2,432,307,285.38 (two billion, four hundred and thirty two million, three hundred and seven thousand, two hundred and eighty five Reais and thirty eight centavos) to R$ 2,432,307,280.00 (two billion, four hundred and thirty two million, three hundred and seven thousand, two hundred and eighty Reais), by cancellation of 385 (three hundred and eighty five) common shares and 153 (one hundred and fifty three) preferred shares, all with nominal value R$ 0.01 (one centavo), for the purpose of adapting the registered capital for the purposes of a reverse split;

4) consequent change in the head paragraph of Clause 4 of the Bylaws, to be drafted as follows:

The other terms of that prior proposal remain in effect, relating to the following items: authorization for the Executive Board to take the measures relating to the stock bonus; approval of the reverse split of each lot of 500 (five hundred) shares with nominal amount of R$ 0.01 (one centavo) each, by type, into 1 (one) share of nominal value R$ 5.00 (five Reais) to take place within at least 30 (thirty) days after the holding of the

After carefully considering the said proposal, and considering, further, that the legal rules relating to the matter have been complied with, the opinion of the members of the Audit Board is in favor of their approval by the Ordinary and Extraordinary General Meetings of Stockholders to be held, together, on April 26, 2007. Belo Horizonte, April 10, 2007.

Taking the floor, the Chairman explained that the bonus mentioned in item 10 of the Convocation Announcement for these Meetings includes the Extraordinary and Complementary dividends. The Chairman then put to debate the proposal of the Board of Directors relating to items 2, 3, and 6 to 13 of the agenda, and then submitted the said proposal to the vote, it being approved unanimously.

Taking the floor, the stockholder Antônio Albino de Abreu Mendes said that, in view of this Company’s need to cancel 153 preferred shares and 385 common shares, all nominal and with unit nominal value of R$ 0.01 (one centavo) each, he being a holder of these quantities, and his name appearing in the Nominal Share Registry on today’s date, he in free and spontaneous goodwill placed these amounts, in accordance with a Certificate of Consent issued by Banco Itaú S.A., the agent responsible for service to stockholders of Cemig, at the disposal of the company for the purposes of cancellation.

Then, taking the floor, the stockholder Agostinho Faria Cardoso said that the proposal of the Board of Directors to these Meetings did not set the date for start of trading of the shares of this Company in unit form and, further, due to the need to adaptation for the systems of the São Paulo Stock Exchange, proposed that the shares of Cemig should start to be traded, exclusively in the grouped and unit form, on June 4, 2007. The last date for negotiation in lots of 1,000 shares would thus be June 1 of the present year. The proposal of the stockholder Agostinho Faria Cardoso was put to debate and, subsequently, to the vote, and approved unanimously.

Continuing with the agenda, the Chairman informed the meeting that the period of office of the Audit Board ended on today’s date, and that a new election should thus be held for the said Board, with a period of office of 1 (one) year, that is to say, up to the Ordinary General Meeting of Stockholders to be held in 2008. The Chairman explained that the said election is to be held with separate voting, in the case of candidates put forward by holders of preferred shares and by minority stockholders.
