The minority shareholders indicated Mr. José João Abdalla Filho and Mr. Marcelo Gasparino da Silva as candidates to the Board of Directors.

The Company points out that, as disclosed in the release dated June 9, 2022, these candidates were also nominated by the controlling shareholder, through a letter from the Ministry of Mines and Energy. In view of this, the Company requested clarification from the controlling shareholder and minority shareholders on the subject.

The Company informs that the minority shareholders also made a request to adopt the multiple vote system in the election of Board members in the Extraordinary General Meeting to be convened by the Company, although its effective adoption will depend on the request of shareholders holding at least 5% of the Company's common shares, which has not yet occurred (as per Article 141 of Law 6,404/76 and Article 3 of CVM Resolution 70/2022).

Finally, Petrobras clarifies that all of its General Meetings are subject to a minimum period of 30 days between the call and the meeting, because it is an issuer of shares that serve as collateral for American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), as disclosed in item 12.2 of its Reference Form.
