COMPANHIA BRASILEIRA DE DISTRIBUIÇÃO

NOTICE TO THE MARKET

Companhia Brasileira de Distribuição (the "Company") hereby informs its shareholders and the market that, in furtherance of the notice to the market published on November 14, 2023 regarding the "below criteria" average closing price on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") of the American depositary shares (the "ADSs") representing the Company's common shares, on March 29, 2024, the Company's board of directors approved the delisting of the ADSs from the NYSE.

The Company's board of directors' decision is related solely to the delisting of the ADSs from the NYSE. The Company's common shares will continue to be listed and traded on the B3 S.A. - Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão, which is their principal trading market.

Immediately following delisting of the ADSs from the NYSE, the Company intends to maintain its ADS program. In the future, the Company plans to file an application for the deregistration of its common shares and the ADSs from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Once the statutory requirements for deregistration are satisfied and the Company's deregistration is effective, the Company's reporting obligations under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, will terminate.

The Company's board of directors has determined that, taking into consideration (i) the very limited trading volume of the ADSs as compared to the overall (B3 and NYSE) trading volume of the Company's common shares, (ii) the fact that the Company has not historically sought follow-on financings on the NYSE, and (iii) the considerable costs associated with maintaining the listing of the ADSs on the NYSE and the registration of the Company's common shares and the ADSs with the SEC, as well as complying with the periodic reporting and related obligations, delisting the ADSs from the NYSE is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

Since September 2023, after the spin-off of Almacenes Éxito S.A., the ADSs have represented less than 5% of the overall (B3 and NYSE) average trading volume of the Company's common shares over the period and, since January 2024, less than 3%.

The Company has notified the NYSE of the approval of delisting and will file Form 25 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission within the appropriate timeframe.

The Company will keep its shareholders and the market informed of developments relating to the delisting of the ADSs and the deregistration of its common shares and the ADSs from the SEC.
