  2. The Company pursues, with a possible listing, to unlock value to all of its shareholders and not to "shield its assets" as mentioned in the news report.
  3. The studies are not being conducted with the aim to obtain tax benefits.
  4. In all the hypothesis evaluated, the control will continue to be exercised by a Brazilian entity.
