4. ATTENDANCE:  The shareholders representing 1,035,174,563 total shares, corresponding to 76.53% (seventy-six point fifty-three percent) of the voting capital stock of the Company were present, considering those physically present or those represented in accordance with the applicable legislation, according to the signatures contained in folio 84 of the Shareholders Attendance Book no. 04, including that of the representative of the Union, Dr. LUIZ FREDERICO DE BESSA FLEURY, designated by PGFN Ordinance No. 128, dated March 12^th, 2018, published in the Official Daily Gazette of March 14^th, 2018, and those who submitted valid Distance Voting Bulletin. The said quorum to confirm the meeting sets the minimum of 1/4 (one fourth) of the voting capital stock, as provided for in article 125 of Act 6.404/1976, to deliberate the items on the agenda. Also present, for clarification and support at the meeting, the Market Relations Manager, Francisco de Assis Duarte de Lima, and the Fiscal Council Member of Eletrobras ANDRÉ EDUARDO DANTAS.

5. MEETING: The General Coordinator of the Distribution Board, MARCOS DO NASCIMENTO PEREIRA, assumed the chairmanship of the meeting, pursuant article 17, paragraph 8, of the Bylaws, replacing the President of Eletrobras, WILSON FERREIRA JR., according the Resolution of the Executive Board of Eletrobras no. 124/2019, dated March 18th, 2019, and CLAUDIA LEITE TEIXEIRA CASIUCH was the secretary.

6. AGENDA: 1. To approve the amendment of item 2 of the agenda of the 173^rd Extraordinary General Meeting, changing the term for the transfer of the control of Amazonas Distribuidora de Energia SA (hereinafter referred to as "Amazonas Energia") to Consórcio Oliveira Energia - ATEM ("Buyer"), winner of the Auction held on December 10^th, 2018, to until April 15^th, 2019, provided the following events occur cumulatively: (i) that the Granting Authority extends the designation for the provision of distribution services, by said the distributor, to until April 15^th, 2019; and (ii) that, irrevocably and irreversibly, the Granting Authority ensures that the resources necessary to operate, maintain and make investments related to the temporary provision of the public service of the respective distributor, until April 15^th, 2019, are provided by the tariff and or by the Federal Government and/or the Sectoral Funds, maintaining full economic and financial neutrality for the entire new designation period, without any injection of investments by Eletrobras.

7. RESOLUTION: Once the Meeting was CONFIRMED, and the reading of the documents and proposals being waived, it was approved by the attending shareholders that the minutes be drawn up in the form of a summary of the events, including disagreements and protests, containing only the transcript of the resolutions taken, as provided in the first paragraph of article 130 of Act 6.404/1976. Before we proceed to the vote, it remains recorded that on March 25th, 2019, the Ministry of Mines and Energy issued the Ordinance no. 175, which extends the period of appointment for the provision of temporary distribution services of the company Amazonas Distribuidora de Energia S.A until April 15th, 2019, or until the assumption of the new concessionaire, Consórcio Oliveira Energia, whichever occurs first.

Although there was no express mention in MME Ordinance No. 175, assuring the necessary resources to operate, maintain and make investments related to the temporary provision of the public service of the respective distributor until April 15th, 2019, without any contribution by Eletrobras, the Company is supported by MME Ordinance 338, dated July 26^th, 2016, which governs the use of funds from the Global Reversion Reserve Fund (RGR) for the adequate provision of the public electricity service until the assumption of a new concessionaire, and in the decision of the 165^th Extraordinary General Meeting of Eletrobras, dated July 22^nd, 2016, which vetoed any contribution by Eletrobras to its distribution companies.

That being said, after examination and discussion of the matters on the agenda, in accordance with the provisions of the call notice, the shareholders deliberated the following, in accordance with the attached voting map:

7.1. To approve, by a majority, with 580,512,596  favorable votes, the amendment of item 2 of the decision of the 173^rd Extraordinary General Meeting, with the postponement of the term for the transfer of the share control of Amazonas Distribuidora de Energia SA to April until 30^th, 2019, provided that , until the transfer of the distributor to the new controller, all the resources necessary to operate, maintain and make investments related to the public services of the respective distributor are provided by the tariff, by the Federal Government or by the Sectoral Funds, maintaining the economic and financial balance of Amazonas

Energia, without any contribution, in any way, by Eletrobras, with the exclusion of the condition that foresees that the Granting Authority extend the designation to provide the services of distributor, by the said distributor, until April 30^th, 2019, as an act of the Federal Government, as a granting power and not as shareholder of Eletrobras, with 201,391,496 favorable votes to the Management Proposal, 10,352 votes against the proposal and 253,260,119 abstentions.

7.2. Specify that the BNDES and BNDESPAR shareholders present at this Meeting abstained from voting on the Agenda item related to the privatization of Amazonas Distribuidora de Energia SA, since BNDES is mandated to carry out the privatization modeling of the Distributors controlled by Eletrobras, and compliance with best corporate governance practices suggests that BNDES and BNDESPAR abstain from these matters.

8. CLOSING: There being no further business, the Chairman closed the meeting and adjourned it for the time required to draw up these minutes, in the form of a summary of the events. Reopening the session, these minutes were read and, once approved, were signed by those present.

Brasília, March 29^th, 2019.
