mentioned in this Clause  2.7.1.1,  it shall be responsible  for reimbursing RJR
for all expenses and costs  (including  fines,  additions  and fees of counsel),

real estate  properties of the  Governador  Valadares  Business,  as well as the
equipment,   machinery   and  other  assets   comprising  or  belonging  to  the

and maintenance  conditions they are found to be on this date, except for normal
wear and tear.  Except as disclosed in Exhibit 2.7.2 hereof,  the facilities and
other assets and properties of F-2299, on the Date of the Swap, or the operation
and maintenance of the same, as it currently  occurs,  shall not be in violation
of any law, order or  administrative  zoning  regulation in force,  nor shall it
violate any restrictive clause or legal provision, the exception to which could,
in any relevant  aspect,  affect or preclude the continued use of the same,  for
the purposes they are currently  being used, and shall continue to be used until
the Date of the Swap, or would considerably  affect the value of such assets and
properties.  Any notification issued by any body, government agency or authority

environmental issues of the Governador Valadares Business, the originating event

convenient bases, they may provide additional  information and explanation about
any supplied materials.

8. CONDUCTION OF PROCEEDINGS

8.1. As regards the conduction of both judicial or  administrative  proceedings,
as well as labor claims involving debts and/or obligations, the payment of which
is a responsibility of CMR and/or Remil, as set forth in Clause 6, the following
procedure shall be observed:

8.1.1  If  Zohhal  or  RJR  (collectively,   the  "Indemnifiable   Parties"  and
individually,  the  "Indemnifiable  Party")  are  notified,  assessed,  sued  or
summoned,  whether  in or out of court,  as a result of any act or fact that may
generate any damage to such Party,  pursuant to the  provisions in Clause 6, RJR
shall give notice of such fact to Remil, through a written notification, sent by
fax, within up to forty-eight  (48) hours from the receipt of the  notification,
assessment, demand or summons (collectively referred to as "Notification").

8.1.1 (a)  Likewise,  RJR  shall  forward  to Remil  any and all  communication,
correspondence,  legal notice and others, which come to the establishment of the
Nova Iguacu  Business  and are  addressed  to Remil  and/or to CMR and/or to the
companies  listed in Exhibit 8.1.1 (a), within no longer than  forty-eight  (48)
hours from receipt thereof.

8.1.1.1.  When  the  reply to the  notifications,  assessments,  demands,  legal
notices,  correspondences  or judicial or  extrajudicial  summons,  mentioned in
Clauses 8.1.1 and 8.1.1 (a) shall occur within less than forty-eight (48) hours,
including,  but not limited to, summons  relating to execution  proceedings  and
legal notice or notification of protest of bills,  RJR shall give notice of such
fact to Remil, by fax,  immediately  after receipt thereof,  in such a way as to
make possible the timely reply of Remil.

8.1.2 Remil shall inform the Indemnifiable  Party, (a) in the situation provided
for in Clause 8.1.1,  with at least  forty-eight (48) hours of prior notice,  or
within a term  equivalent  to, at least,  1/3 of the  legal  term to submit  the
defense or answer,  whichever is larger, or (b) in the situation provided for in
Clause  8.1.1.1  above,  until half of the term for  manifestation,  if it shall
immediately  pay the amount in question or if it shall  dispute the case, on its
own account and risk, on behalf of Zohhal and/or another Indemnifiable Party, as
the case may be. In the  situations  mentioned  in Clauses  8.1.1 and 8.1.1 (a),
when the Nova Iguacu  Business  is  involved,  and the  exercise of the right of
defense  requires the posting of a guarantee,  Recofarma and/or Remil and/or CMR
may submit  their  answer or defense,  provided  they fully  guarantee  the debt
claimed and all of its  additions,  and, by doing so,  prevent the occurrence of
any damage or restriction in relation to the Indemnifiable  Parties,  including:
(i) attachment,  judicial restraint or any other kind of burden to any assets of
the  Indemnifiable  Party;  and/or (ii)  interruption  in the development of the
activities  of the  Indemnifiable  Party;  and/or  (iii)  protest  of  bills  or
inclusion of the Indemnifiable  Party in the debtor's record or in the record of
Federal   Collectible  Debts,   before  any  government   bodies,   and/or  (iv)
impossibility of obtaining certificates of non-existence of tax debts, including
social  security  contributions,  required  to the regular  conduction  of their
respective businesses.  However, if the option for the posting of guarantee does
not meet the legal  gradation  provided for in the Code of Civil Procedure or in
the applicable  legislation  and results,  at any time, in any of the situations
above  mentioned,  or in any other damage or  restriction  to the  Indemnifiable
Parties,  Recofarma and/or Remil and/or CMR shall immediately  deposit, in cash,
the funds required for the full posting of the guarantee required, as a means to
hold RJR  harmless  against  the  situations  previously  mentioned,  as well as
against other damages or restrictions.

8.1.3. It is hereby  expressly agreed that, if Recofarma and/or Remil and/or CMR
choose to submit an answer or defense,  the same may appoint  attorneys of trust
to act on their own behalf and/or on behalf of the  Indemnifiable  Party, as the
case may be, and, in such case,  the  mentioned  attorneys  shall be granted the
powers  required  to  conduct  the  defense,  and shall  receive  all  necessary
information and documentation. The attorneys appointed as mentioned above shall,
whenever  requested,  keep the Indemnifiable  Party informed about the course of
the proceeding and shall provide copies of all procedural documents.

8.1.4.  If  Recofarma  and/or  Remil  and/or CMR fail to act in  relation to the
Notification  mentioned in Clauses  8.1.1 and 8.1.1.1  above,  or if they act in
disagreement  with the established  terms as above indicated,  the Indemnifiable
Party may, at its sole discretion, decide if it shall immediately pay the amount
claimed  or if it shall  submit an answer or  defense,  which  shall not  exempt
Recofarma  and/or Remil and/or CMR from liability  pursuant to the provisions of
Clause 6.

8.1.5. If the Indemnifiable  Party fails to notify as set forth in Clauses 8.1.1
and 8.1.1.1 above, or if it notifies in an untimely  manner,  the  Indemnifiable
Party shall bear the burden  resulting from the lack of notification or untimely
notification,  and shall be liable for the payment of the claimed obligation. In
such  case,  notwithstanding  the  liability  for  the  payment  of the  claimed
obligation, the Indemnifiable Party may act in the corresponding proceeding, for
which purpose Recofarma, Remil or CMR, as the case may be, hereby agree to grant
a power of attorney to the  Indemnifiable  Party,  and to cooperate by supplying
information and documents.

8.1.6.  Also for the purposes of this Clause 8, it shall suffice that RJR or any
of the Indemnifiable  Parties inform, give legal notice or notify Recofarma,  so
that the latter, CMR or Remil consider themselves  informed,  served with notice
or notified, as set forth in Clause 9.6 below.

8.1.7. The obligation to indemnify herein undertaken by Recofarma, CMR and Remil
shall fully subsist, and it shall remain unchanged,  even if Recofarma or any of
its current controllers, or the controllers of CMR and/or Remil do, at any time,
withdraw from any of such companies.

8.1.8.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing,  Recofarma shall be the party ultimately
responsible before RJR, and the guarantor of the compliance with the obligations
of CMR and/or of Remil,  pursuant to Clause  7.1.,  if CMR and/or  Remil fail to
comply with what is set forth herein.

8.2. Likewise, in the conduction of both judicial or administrative proceedings,
as well as labor claims involving debts and/or obligations, the payment of which
is a  responsibility  of RJR, as set forth in Clause 7, the following  procedure
shall be observed:

8.2.1 If  F-2299,  Recofarma,  Remil or CMR  (collectively,  the  "Indemnifiable
Parties" and individually,  the "Indemnifiable  Party") are notified,  assessed,
sued or  summoned,  whether  in or out of court,  as a result of any act or fact
that may generate any damage to such Party, pursuant to the provisions in Clause
7, a notice of such fact shall be given to RJR, through a written  notification,
sent by fax,  within  up to  forty-eight  (48)  hours  from the  receipt  of the
notification,  assessment,  demand  or  summons  (collectively  referred  to  as
"Notification").

8.2.1 (a) Likewise,  Recofarma  shall forward to RJR any and all  communication,
correspondence, legal notice and others, which come to the establishments of the
Governador  Valadares  Business and are  addressed to RJR or to F-2299 and/or to
the  companies  listed in Exhibit 8.2.1 (a),  within no longer than  forty-eight
(48) hours from receipt thereof.

8.2.1.1.  When  the  reply to the  notifications,  assessments,  demands,  legal
notices,  correspondences  or judicial or  extrajudicial  summons,  mentioned in
Clauses  8.2.1 and 8.2.1 (a),  shall  occur  within less than  forty-eight  (48)
hours, including,  but not limited to, summons relating to execution proceedings
and legal  notice or  notification  of  protest of bills,  Recofarma  shall give
notice of such fact to RJR, by fax, immediately after receipt thereof, in such a
way as to make possible the timely reply of RJR.

8.2.2 RJR shall inform the  Indemnifiable  Party, (a) in the situation  provided
for in Clause 8.2.1,  with at least  forty-eight (48) hours of prior notice,  or
within a term  equivalent  to, at least,  1/3 of the  legal  term to submit  the
defense or answer,  whichever is larger, or (b) in the situation provided for in
Clause  8.2.1.1  above,  until half of the term for  manifestation,  if it shall
immediately  pay the amount in question or if it shall  dispute the case, on its
own account and risk, on behalf of F-2299 and/or another Indemnifiable Party, as
the case may be.

In the situations  mentioned in Clauses 8.2.1 and 8.2.1 (a), when the Governador
Valadares  Business  is  involved,  and the  exercise  of the  right of  defense
requires  the  posting of a  guarantee,  RJR may  submit its answer or  defense,
provided it fully guarantees the debt claimed and all of its additions,  and, by
doing so,  prevents the  occurrence of any damage or  restriction in relation to
the Indemnifiable Parties,  including: (i) attachment,  judicial constriction or
any other kind of burden to any assets of the Indemnifiable  Party;  and/or (ii)
interruption  in the development of the activities of the  Indemnifiable  Party;
and/or (iii)  protest of bills or inclusion  of the  Indemnifiable  Party in the
debtor's  record or in the  record of  Federal  Collectible  Debts,  before  any
government  bodies,  and/or (iv)  impossibility  of  obtaining  certificates  of
non-existence of tax debts,  including social security  contributions,  required
for the regular  conduction  of their  respective  businesses.  However,  if the
option for the posting of guarantee does not meet the legal  gradation  provided
for in the Code of Civil Procedure or in the applicable legislation and results,
at any time, in any of the situations  above  mentioned,  or any other damage or
restriction to the  Indemnifiable  Parties,  RJR shall immediately  deposit,  in
cash,  the funds required for the full posting of the guarantee  required,  as a
means to hold  Recofarma,  Remil  and/or CMR  harmless  against  the  situations
previously mentioned, as well as against other damages or restrictions.

8.2.3. It is hereby expressly agreed that, if RJR chooses to submit an answer or
defense,  it may appoint  attorneys of trust to act on its own behalf  and/or on
behalf of the  Indemnifiable  Party,  as the case may be, and, in such case, the
mentioned attorneys shall be granted the powers required to conduct the defense,
and shall receive all necessary  information  and  documentation.  The attorneys
appointed as mentioned above shall,  whenever requested,  keep the Indemnifiable
Party  informed  about the course of the  proceeding and shall provide copies of
all procedural documents.

8.2.4. If RJR fails to act in relation to the Notification  mentioned in Clauses
8.2.1 and 8.2.1.2  above,  or if it acts in  disagreement  with the  established
terms,  above indicated,  the  Indemnifiable  Party may, at its sole discretion,
decide if it shall  immediately  pay the amount claimed or if it shall submit an
answer or defense.  If the  Indemnifiable  Party fails to notify as set forth in
Clauses 8.2.1 and 8.2.1.2 above,  or if it notifies in an untimely  manner,  the
Indemnifiable   Party  shall  bear  the  burden   resulting  from  the  lack  of
notification  or untimely  notification,  and shall be liable for the payment of
the claimed  obligation,  which shall not exempt RJR from liability  pursuant to
the provisions of Clause 7.

8.2.5.  Also for the purposes of this Clause 8, it shall suffice that  Recofarma
or any of the Indemnifiable  Parties inform, give legal notice or notify RJR, so
that the latter considers itself  informed,  served with notice or notified,  as
set forth in Clause 9.6 below.

8.2.6. The obligation to indemnify herein undertaken by RJR shall fully subsist,
and it shall remain unchanged,  even if RJR or any of its current controllers at
any time withdraws from such companies.

8.3. The Parties agree that, upon the conduction of the proceedings mentioned in
this  Clause,  if it  becomes  necessary  to make  decisions  that may  generate
relevant  adverse  effects on the  conduction of the  Businesses of the Parties,
including,  but not  limited  to,  settlements  in (i)  labor  claims  involving
practices  routinely adopted by the Parties,  occupational  medicine and safety,
(ii) civil actions  involving issues in connection with consumer's  rights,  and
(iii) other  proceedings that may, in view of their purpose,  nature or subject,
cause  such  consequences,  the  Party  responsible  for the  conduction  of the
mentioned  proceeding shall previously  inform the other Party about the acts it
intends to  practice  in such  proceedings.  In such  case,  the  Parties  shall
discuss, on a case-by-case basis, the best mutual solution.

irrespective of how privileged it may be.

9.10.  Headers and Exhibits.  The headers of the clauses used in this  Agreement

9.15. Specific Performance.

9.15.1.  The Parties hereby  acknowledge  and declare that the mere payment of a

Agreement.

9.15.2. If a Party fails to issue a declaration of will, in the sense that it is
bound by the terms hereof, the other Party may request a judicial decision that,

purposes  and  effects  of  articles  461 et al of the  Brazilian  Code of Civil
Procedure.
