5.         MATTERS DISCUSSED AND RESOLUTIONS TAKEN BY UNANIMOUS VOTE:

 

The reading of the Agenda was waived, as all those present were aware of its content. The directors also resolved that these minutes will be drawn up in summary form, with the right to submit opinions and dissensions, which will be filed at the headquarters of the Company, and the publication of these minutes without the signatures of the directors and the suppression of strategic and/or confidential information was approved.

 

After discussing and examining the items on the Agenda, the Directors, by unanimous vote of those present, resolved:

 

(i) To approve the issuance price of twenty-seven Reais and fifty cents (R$ 27.50) per Share under the Offering (“Price per Share”). The Price per Share was fixed exclusively based on the collection of investment intentions (“Bookbuilding”) carried out, in Brazil, under the coordination of Banco Itaú BBA S.A., Banco Santander (Brasil) S.A, Banco Bradesco BBI S.A., Banco BTG Pactual S.A. and Banco Morgan Stanley S.A., with professional investors, as set forth in article 9-A of CVM Instruction No. 539, of November 13, 2013, as amended, resident and domiciled or headquartered in Brazil (“Professional Investors”) and, abroad, with Itau BBA USA Securities, Inc., Santander Investment Securities Inc., Bradesco Securities Inc., Banco BTG Pactual S.A. – Cayman Branch and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, together with certain foreign investors, (jointly with the Professional Investors, the “Institutional Investors”). The Price per Share was calculated based on the manifestations of interest according to the quality and quantity of demand (by volume and price) collected from Institutional Investors during the Bookbuilding. The choice of the criterion for setting the Price per Share is justified by the fact that the Price per Share was set after the Bookbuilding Procedure, and there will be no unjustified dilution of the current shareholders of the Company, pursuant to article 170, paragraph 1, Item III of the Brazilian Corporate Law.


 
 

 

 

 

 

(ii) To approve the increase in the Company's capital, within the limit of its authorized capital, in the amount of three billion, two-hundred and twelve million, four-hundred and seventy thousand, nine-hundred and sixty-five Reais (R$ 3,212,470,965.00), which will change from R$ 5,741,284,174.75 (five billion, seven hundred and forty one million, two hundred and eighty four thousand, one hundred and seventy four Reais and seventy five cents) to eight-billion, nine-hundred fifty-three million, seven-hundred fifty-five thousand, one-hundred and thirty-nine Reais and seventy-five cents (R$ 8,953,755,139.75), through the issuance of 116,817,126 (one hundred sixteen million, eight hundred seventeen thousand and one hundred twenty-six) new common shares, each in the amount of R$ 27.50 (twenty seven reais and fifty cents), all registered, book-entry and without par value (“Common Shares”), which are object of the Offering (“Shares of the Offering”), increasing the Company's capital from 1,017,914,746 (one billion, seventeen million, nine hundred and fourteen thousand, seven hundred and forty six) common shares to 1,134,731,872 (one billion, one hundred thirty-four million, seven hundred thirty-one thousand and eight-hundred and seventy-two) common shares, excluding the preemptive right of the Company’s current shareholders, pursuant to Article 172, item I, of the Law No. 6,404, as of December 15, 1976, and Article 5, paragraph 2nd of the Company’s bylaws. There was no issuance of Additional Shares in the Offering.

The Stabilizing Agent, through the Brokerage Firm (as defined in the minutes of the Board of Directors Meeting of the Company dated May 29, 2019), shall have the exclusive right, as of the date of execution of the Underwriting Agreement, including, and for a period up to thirty (30) days as of the date of the beginning of trading of the Shares of the Offering in B3, to exercise the Greenshoe Option, fully or partially, in one or more times, after notifying the other Underwriters, provided that the decision to overallot the Shares is agreed among the Stabilizing Agent and the other Underwriters when determining the Price Per Share.

 

(iii) To approve the Board of Directors’ verification of the subscription of 116,817,126 (one hundred sixteen million, eight hundred seventeen thousand and one hundred twenty-six) Shares and the resulting approval of the Company's capital increase, due to the resolutions taken in items (i) and (ii) above, in the amount of three billion, two-hundred and twelve million, four-hundred and seventy thousand, nine-hundred and sixty-five Reais (R$ 3,212,470,965.00), through the issuance of 116,817,126 (one hundred sixteen million, eight hundred seventeen thousand and one hundred twenty-six) new common shares, all registered, book-entry and without par value.
