GOL PN Shares Included in Stock Market Indices

São Paulo, May 13, 2005 – GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes S.A. (NYSE: GOL and Bovespa: GOLL4), Brazil’s low-fare, low-cost airline, today announced that its PN shares have been added to the IBrX-Brazil index and will be added to the MSCI (Morgan Stanley Capital International) Indexes.

IBr-X Brazil Index. GOL PN shares are included in the IBrX index for the four-month period between May and August 2005. GOLL4 now participates with 0.67% weight in the index, corresponding to the 28th ranking in the portfolio. IBrX measures the return of a theoretical portfolio composed of 100 selected shares amongst those most traded on Bovespa in terms of liquidity, weighted by market value of outstanding shares. To join this special group on Bovespa, GOL shares were required to meet the following criteria: (i) to be one of the 100 shares with highest trading index verified over twelve months prior to the re-weighting; and (ii) the shares should be traded in, at least, 70% of the trading sessions over twelve months prior to the formation of portfolio.

MSCI Indexes. Also, GOL PN shares will enter three MSCI Indices: MSCI Brazil (with a 0.44% weight), MSCI Latin America (with as 0.22% weight), and MSCI Emerging Markets Free (with a 0.06% weight). The additions will be effective as of the close of May 31, 2005. Regarding the stock screening process, MSCI Brazil aims for Brazilian companies stocks with good liquidity and float, avoids cross-ownership and applies a market capitalization weight to each stock. GOL was included during the Annual MSCI Full Country Index Review, a systematic re-assessment of the equity universe, in order for each country index to be as close as possible to the 85% free float-adjusted market capitalization representation target at the industry group level.
