Ref.: Payment of Intermediary Interests on Own Capital
         . Banco Bradesco S.A.

Gentlemen,

     The Board of Directors of this Bank, in a meeting held today, approved the Board of Executive Officer’s proposal for the payment to the Company’s stockholders of Intermediary Interests on Own Capital related to the first half of 2006, in the amount of R$0.327750000 per common stock and R$0.360525000 per preferred stock, which represent ten times the amount of Interests paid monthly, benefiting the stockholders registered in the Bank’s Books on this date (June 30th, 2006).

     The payment will be settle on July 20th, 2006, in the net amount of R$0.278587500 per common stock and R$0.306446250 per preferred stock, already deducting fifteen percent (15%) Withholding Income Tax, except for corporate entity stockholders, which are exempted from this taxation, and thus will receive the declared amount.

     The Interests on Own Capital related to the stocks deposited at CBLC (Brazilian Company and Depository Corporation) will be paid to the referred CBLC, which will transfer these interests to the stockholders by means of depositor Brokerage Houses.

     The respective Interests will be computed, net of withholding Income Tax, in the calculation of mandatory dividends of the fiscal year as provided in the Company’s Bylaws.


Cordially,

Banco Bradesco S.A.
Milton Almicar Silva Vargas
Executive Vice President and
