8. Resolutions: Preliminary, it is registered that (i) the shareholders Wishbone Delaware Brazil I LLC and Wishbone Restricted Partners, LP presented original proxies of foreign origin without translation of the apostille and without registration in the Registry of Deeds and Documents, however, the Chairman and the Secretary of the Meeting of this Extraordinary Shareholders’ Meeting permitted the participation and vote of such shareholders in the meeting, due to the Company’s prior waiver of the need for signature recognition and/or notarization/consularization of the proxies granted, as set forth in the Call Notice; (ii) the shareholders Alliance Trust PLC, Battelle M. Institute, The Health Foundation, River and Mercantile ICVC - R.A.M.G. High Alpha, River and Mercantile World R.F., Advance Asset Management - WSSP I. E.T, BT Funds Management (NZ) L. - The Westpac W.V.I., BT Funds M.L. - BT Wholesale M.I. S.F., American E.P.S. Corp. - A.E.P. Master Retirement Trust, American E.P.S. Corp. - A.E.P. System Retiree Medical T. F.C. Union Employees, represented by River and Mercantile Asset Management LLP (all together referred to simply as “River”), presented a copy of a foreign origin power of attorney with a series of irregularities, attached to these minutes, such as (a) document presented by means of a simple copy, with handwritten lateral annotations, which are not part of the body of the document; (b) document of foreign origin without registration in the Registry of Deeds and Documents; (c) document with name inconsistency in relation to the signatory; (d) document certified by the public notary of the City of London in Portuguese language, without proper proof of their ability to certify such document; and (e) a copy of the notarization, apostille, e-mail, as well as documents for representation signed by unidentified individuals, qualified, all of them only in a foreign language, which motivated the disregard of the proxy for purposes of participation in this Meeting for physical voting. The stockholder BRADO CAPITAL ADMINISTRAÇÃO DE TÍTULOS E CARTEIRA DE VALORES MOBILIÁRIOS presented a protest regarding the matter. Following the proceedings, the following resolutions were taken with the abstention and contrary votes recorded in each case, and these minutes were drafted in summary form and their publication with the omission of the signatures of the shareholders, as provided in art. 130, paragraphs 1 and 2 of Law 6,404/76:

 

(a) To approve, by majority votes, with 17,274,677 votes in favor, 9,898,352 votes against and 147,432 abstentions, the dismissal of all members of the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

(b) To approve, by majority votes, with 17,916,021 votes in favor, 9,256,274 votes against and 148,100 abstentions, to be set in 7 (seven) the number of members compose the Company’s Board of Directors, pursuant to Art. 15 of the Company’s Bylaws, which term until the Ordinary General Meeting of 2020.

 

(c) After the vote on items (i) and (ii) of the agenda, the Chairman and the Secretary were informed by Carlos Eduardo Moraes Calheiros, Investor Relations Officer of the Company, about an error in the “SYNTHETIC CONSOLIDATED VOTING MAP” made available by the Company to the market on 09/24/2018, therefore, one day prior to the execution of this EGM. As explained by Mr. Carlos Eduardo Moraes Calheiros, the number of votes related to the bulletin of distance voting was correctly listed in the communication to the market regarding items (i) and (ii) of the agenda, but the votes received at a distance related to item (iii) of the agenda were incorrect due to an internal error of the Company, which was corrected before all present with the presentation of a proper explanation and justification regarding the error.

As explained by the Company’s Investor Relations Officer, such formal error did not affect the deliberations or alter the votes related to items (i) and (ii) of the agenda, but such an error would affect the result of item (iii) of the agenda. The Company’s Director of Investor Relations corrected the SYNTHETIC CONSOLIDATED VOTING MAP regarding the votes addressed to item (iii) of the agenda and, thus, the work based on the correct number of votes at a distance were resumed. Analyzing the analytical description provided by the Company of all the shareholders who voted at a distance, it was noted that the shareholders River, recorded several votes related to items (i), (ii) and (iii) of the agenda, which makes explicit that shareholders River, in addition to having filed an irregular power of attorney to take part and vote in this EGM, also previously voted through bulletin of distance voting, which shows the desire of such shareholder to vote in duplicity, which was not allowed as a result of the refusal of the Chairman and Secretary of the Meeting to accept the irregular power of attorney submitted by River to the attending shareholders. It is stated that the shareholder River regularly submitted his votes at a distance, and such votes were considered and validated along with the other votes recorded at a distance. The shareholder BRADO CAPITAL ADMINISTRAÇÃO DE TÍTULOS E CARTEIRA DE VALORES MOBILIÁRIOS protested in relation to the matter and with regard to the text of the minutes. Additionally, it was possible to attest that shareholder Laercio Lampiasi, although duly represented at the EGM to conduct a physical vote, also presented his votes at a distance.
