Material Changes
The filing details a re-ratification of compensation amounts previously discussed at the Annual Shareholders' Meeting on April 30, 2015. The change in this filing is procedural: the company clarified the total aggregate compensation amount (R$4,536,034.89) to comply with a request from the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM). The filing explicitly states that this clarification does not imply an increase in compensation relative to the amounts established in April 2015.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
The filing contains no operational guidance, financial outlook, or specific risk factors related to business performance. It includes a standard forward-looking statements disclaimer noting that future results may differ from expectations due to economic conditions and other uncertainties. The primary contingency addressed was the regulatory requirement to explicitly state the total compensation cap for statutory bodies.
Investor Verification Checklist

- Confirm the composition of the Board of Executive Officers, Board of Directors, and Fiscal Council to ensure the monthly rates apply to the correct number of individuals.
