Exhibit V

The purpose hereof is to establish the final amount of Interest on Own Capital quity due to the State of São Paulo by Sabesp, from 2005 through 2007.

In Table A, we observe the development of the receivables for the water supply and sewage collection services (Line 1). In addition, it is also stated the accrued Interest on Own Capital due in the same period (Line 2).

The difference (Line 3) indicates that, only as of June 2007, the State became a net creditor of Sabesp. For this reason, the monetary adjustment was applied as of June 2007, on the difference ascertained in that month.

In Table B, the calculation chart of the adjustment applied to the credit difference on behalf of the State in June 2007 is provided below, hence enabling to calculate the total and adjusted amount according to SELIC rate variation until November 2007.

Note: 
1) The amounts mentioned in lines I and II were extracted from the Quarterly Information (ITR) disclosed by Sabesp. 
2) In February 2004, Sabesp and Gesp executed the 1st Amendment to the GESP Agreement, whereupon the State acknowledges the debt in the amount of R$581,778 thousand, related to the invoices/bills matured from December 1, 2001 through February 29, 2004. The amount of R$42,074 thousand, in March/2004, refers to: (i) invoices/bills issued in February 2004, the maturity date of which will fall in average 60 days after issuance and, therefore, were not matured on February 29, 2004; (ii) invoices/bills issued in March/2004.
