NOTICE TO SHAREHOLDERS

BRASIL TELECOM PARTICIPAÇÕES S.A. (“Company”), in compliance with article 12 of CVM (Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission), Instruction 358, dated 01/03/2002, made an announcement to the Market yesterday informing that the shareholder Credit Suisse First Boston International, with headquarters on One Cabot Square, E144QJ, London, United Kingdom, corporate taxpayer registration number 05.508.895/0001 -93, represented in Brazil by Credit Suisse (Brasil) Distribuidora de Títulos e Valores Mobiliários S.A. (“Credit Suisse DTVM”), in the quality of an investment management institution, had reached on 06.04.2007 a shareholders participation superior to 5% in the Company’s voting shares (ON). However, the Company received new communication today from the same shareholder informing that the correct participation is inferior to the limit of 5% established in CVM Instruction 358/02, as follows:

“Dear Sirs,

     With reference to our letter dated 06.21.2007, due to a failure in our systems, share grouping approved by the Company’s General Shareholders’ Assembly was not considered as part of the shareholder participation sum.

     Therefore, the information contained in the above-mentioned letter, regarding shareholder participation, is incorrect, once the participation is in fact inferior to the limit of 5% established in article 12 of CVM Instruction 358/02.

     We apologize and will be glad to clarify any remaining doubts and questions.

     Finally, we ask you to please transmit this information to the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission – CVM and to the São Paulo Stock Exchange, so as to clarify this mistake.

Sincerely,
Credit Suisse Brasil (DTVM) S.A.”

Brasília, Brazil, July 6th, 2007.
