São Paulo, December 14, 2015 - GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (BM&FBOVESPA: GOLL4 and NYSE: GOL), (S&P: B-, Fitch: B-, Moody’s: B3), the largest low-cost and best-fare airline in Latin America hereby announces to its shareholders and the market that it calculated the adjustments in the prices of classical airline tickets and miles, as provided in the Miles and Airline Ticket Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) signed on December 28, 2012 between (i) GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (“Company”), controlling Shareholder of Smiles S.A. (“Smiles”) and VRG Linhas Aéreas S.A. (“VRG”); (ii) VRG, provider, client and controlled company; and (iii) Smiles, controlled company.
