MATERIAL FACT

 

GAFISA S.A. (Bovespa, GFSA3; NYSE, GFA) (“Gafisa”) and CONSTRUTORA TENDA S.A. (“Tenda”, and together with Gafisa, the “Companies”) released a Material Fact to the market on 08/16/2016, informing that “in keeping with studies for a potential separation of the Gafisa and Tenda business units into two independent publicly traded Companies, the Companies’ management continue to work on its analysis of strategic alternatives for the Tenda business unit, with the aim of maximizing its value to Gafisa’s shareholders”. In virtue of news released by the media, the Companies hereby provide an update of the process.

The Companies have been maintaining contact with financial institutions, which the hiring was approved by Gafisa’s Board of Directors, regarding the opportunity of a public offering of shares issued by Tenda. Despite that, it is premature any consideration regarding structure, volume or term of any eventual offering.

There is no final decision regarding the public offering or regarding any other option previously mentioned in the Material Fact of 08/16/2016 (sale of equity interest or separation by way of a corporate restructuring).

The Company will keep the market informed of any new facts or resolutions regarding this matter, respected any restrictions as set forth in CVM’s regulation.
