The Offering will consist of the primary public distribution, initially, of 334,002 Shares, in Brazil, on the unorganized over-the-counter market, in accordance with CVM Instruction 400, with Circular Letter No. 1/2021- CVM/SRE, dated March 1, 2021, with the ANBIMA Code of Regulation and Best Practices for Structuring, Coordination and Distribution of Public Offerings of Securities and Public Offerings for the Acquisition of Securities currently in force, issued by the Brazilian Association of Financial and Capital Markets Entities, as well as with efforts to disperse shares under the terms of the Novo Mercado Listing Regulations of B3 SA - Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão ("B3") and other applicable regulations, under the coordination of Banco BTG Pactual SA, in the capacity of lead coordinator ("Lead Coordinator" or "BTG Pactual"), with the participation of certain consortium institutions authorized to operate in the special securities trading segment in the Brazilian capital market, accredited with B3 and invited to participate in the Offering to carry out, exclusively, efforts to place the Shares with Shareholders within the scope of the Priority Offering (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus) and to Retail Investors within the scope of the Retail Offering (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus), which must adhere to the invitation letter made available by the Lead Coordinator.

The price per share will be fixed after the completion of the procedure for collecting investment intentions from Institutional Investors, to be carried out in Brazil, by the Lead Coordinator, pursuant to the Placement Agreement (as defined in the Preliminary Prospectus), in accordance with the provisions of article 23, paragraph 1, and article 44 of CVM Instruction 400 ("Bookbuilding Procedure"). The closing price of common shares issued by the Company on B3 on January 20, 2022 was R$ 15,15. This amount may vary upwards or downwards according to the conclusion of the Bookbuilding Procedure.

The Offer will be carried out with the objective of freeing up the wide trading of common shares issued by the Company in circulation on B3, inclusively, by retail investors and, in this way, the Company expects to increase the liquidity and trading volume of the shares on the stock exchange, seeking to capture more value for its shareholders and the market in general.
