MATERIAL FACT

Oi S.A. - In Judicial Reorganization ("Oi" or the "Company"), in accordance with the provisions set forth in Article 157, Paragraph 4, of Law No. 6,404/76 and pursuant to CVM Instruction No. 358/02, hereby informs its shareholders and the market in general that, on this date, the Company and its subsidiaries in judicial reorganization (the "Oi Companies") filed a petition before the 7th Corporate Court of Rio de Janeiro requesting that the Oi Companies' judicial supervision not be terminated on February 4, 2020, the date that is two years after the date of the judicial approval of the Judicial Reorganization Plan (the "JR Plan"). The non-termination of the judicial supervision does not change the Oi Companies' current situation and has no bearing on the compliance with the JR Plan in effect, nor on current receivables or any new resources that may be accessed by the Oi Companies. It is worth emphasizing that the extension of judicial supervision at the end of the two-year period is a common measure that has been applied in most judicial reorganization proceedings.

Despite the positive progress with respect to the implementation of the JR Plan, including the completion of many of the steps required by the process which have been important for the Company's recovery, the application presents to the Court circumstances related to the complexity inherent to a judicial reorganization process of this magnitude, as well as to ongoing legal and regulatory reforms, which require additional measures be taken within the scope of the judicial reorganization. The non-termination of the judicial reorganization will allow the Oi Companies to continue to execute its JR Plan with stability and transparency and will allow the Oi Companies to remain focused on making improvements that will benefit its customers.

Oi reiterates its commitment to the execution of its strategic transformation plan with a focus on the expansion of fiber optics in Brazil and on businesses with higher added-value and with a growth trend and forward thinking. This movement is already beginning to yield positive results in the Company's operational and financial indicators, which will be accelerated beginning in 2020, reaching consolidation in 2021.

The Company will keep its shareholders and the market informed of the development of the subject matter of this Material Fact.
