the day to be indicated on the Notice to Shareholders. Thus, each 1 (one) ordinary share will grant its holder the right to subscribe 0.37787171889 new ordinary share.

Shareholders may exercise their preemptive rights to subscribe new shares in the period of 30 (thirty) days as from the date of publication of the Notice to Shareholders. The shares will be traded without right to subscribe the presently issued shares from the date to be disclosed in the Notice to Shareholders.

Assignment of Preemptive Rights: The preemptive right may be freely assigned by the Company's shareholders to third parties, in accordance with Article 171, paragraph 6th, of the Corporations Act, also being allowed its trading on the stock exchange. In addition, the relocation of the leftovers among the persons who have exercised the preemptive right to subscribe the Capital Increase will be admitted.

In case there is not the subscription of the totality of shares of the Capital Increase, after the termination date for the exercise of preemptive right, the Company will promote an apportionment of any unsubscribed shares among the shareholders who have expressed interest in such leftovers on the application form, in accordance with Article 171, paragraph 7th, item "b", of the Corporations Act.

If unsubscribed shares remain after the termination of the period for exercise of preemptive right and apportionment of leftovers, the Company will not hold auction of leftovers and may proceed to partial ratification of the Capital Increase.

Additionally, the Management informs that the Company's controlling shareholders, Andres Cristian Nacht, Jytte Kjellerup Nacht, Tomas Richard Nacht, Antonia Kjellerup Nacht, Pedro Kaj Kjellerup Nacht, Snow Petrel, S.L. and Francisca Kjellerup Nacht ( "Controlling Shareholders") entered into an Investment Agreement with Investment Fund Axxon Brazil Private Equity Fund II ("Axxon" and "Investment Agreement"). The Investment Agreement regulates the commitment of the controlling shareholders to (1) subscribe and pay in 15,209,125 (fifteen million, two hundred and nine thousand one hundred and twenty five) shares, in the total amount of R$39,999,998.75 (thirty-nine million, nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand, nine hundred and ninety-eight point seventy-five Reais) and (2) assign to Axxon preemptive rights corresponding to the remainder of their participation. Axxon, in turn, is committed under the Investment Agreement to exercise the preemptive right that was transferred to it, including the right to subscribe leftovers, to subscribe and pay for shares to be issued under the Capital Increase representing up to 15% (fifteen percent) of the share capital of the Company after the Capital Increase. The number of shares that will be effectively subscribed by Axxon will depend on the outcome of the exercise of preemptive rights and the subscription of leftovers by other shareholders of the Company, and may result therefore in an amount less than the noted amount.

Nevertheless, the investment commitments made by the Controlling Shareholders and Axxon in the Investment Agreement will be sufficient to guarantee the subscription of shares in an amount sufficient for partial ratification of the Capital Increase.

Simultaneous to the conclusion of the Investment Agreement, the Controlling Shareholders and Axxon entered into a shareholders' agreement to regulate their rights and obligations as shareholders of the Company, whose effectiveness is subject to the effectiveness of the Capital Increase and the acquisition by Axxon of shares representing, at least, 7% (seven percent) of the Company's share capital ("Shareholders' Agreement") after the Capital Increase. The Shareholders' Agreement, if becomes effective, will ensure to Axxon, inclusively (i) veto rights
