Pursuant to the terms and for the purposes of article 16 and 20 of the Portuguese Securities Code and article 12 of the Portuguese Securities Commission Regulation no. 5/2008, EDP - Energias de Portugal SA ("EDP") has provided the following information to the market:

On February 21, 2013, Parpública – Participações Públicas (SGPS) S.A. ("Parpública") notified EDP that, on February 19, 2013, it has sold 151,517,000 shares, which correspond to 4,14% of EDP share capital.

The decrease of the participation resulted from a private offer via an "acelerated bookbuilding" process, in which Caixa – Banco Investimento, S.A. and Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc acted as Joint Bookrunners and its corresponding settlement was held on the regulated market "Eurolist by NYSE Euronext Lisbon".

As a result of this transaction, Parpública decreased its qualifying holding from 4.14% to 0% of EDP share capital.
