We report optical spectroscopy of 5 supernova discovered by the Dark Energy Survey (ATel #4668). The spectra (425-1050) were obtained using the IMACS on the 6.5m Baade telescope at the Las Campinas Observatory. Object classification was performed using SNID (Blondin & Tonry, 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024) and superfit (Howell et al, 2005, ApJ, 634, 119), the details of which are reported in the table below.

a). Redshift from galaxy features
b). Redshift and classification is consistent with that reported in ATEL #10913
