Petrobras on minority shareholder correspondence

—

Rio de Janeiro, May 31, 2024 – Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – Petrobras informs that it has received correspondence from minority shareholders of the Company requesting the convening of an Extraordinary General Meeting ("EGM") for the election of members of the Board of Directors ("BoD") and for the chairmanship of the BoD, under the argument that there would have been dismissal of a member of the BoD, which does not correspond to the facts, as disclosed by the Company in the Releases of May 14 and 15, 2024.

 

The Company believes that there are no grounds for convening an EGM and reiterates the Release disclosed to the market on May 15, 2024, in which it explained that the law does not provide for the convening of a Shareholders' Meeting at this time. Holding an EGM would entail unnecessary costs for the company and its shareholders.

 

Nevertheless, the requests will be submitted for legal assessment and will go through the company's governance procedures.

 

Relevant facts will be disclosed to the market in due course.
