The Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting scheduled for November 7, 2019, as per the Notice to Shareholders published on September 13, 2019, was postponed to December 2, 2019.

It is noteworthy that all other matters provided for in that Meeting are maintained, including the election, by a separate vote of non-controlling holders of common shares, of an alternate member of the Company's Fiscal Council to complete the current term of office, due to the resignation of Ms. Vanessa C. Lopes.

In view of the above, and observing Article 21-L, paragraph 1 of the same instruction, the Company announces that the names of candidates to be included in the Remote Voting Form may be sent up to 25 days before the date of said Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting, observing the percentage of shares provided for in Annex 21-LI.
