The Management Proposal ("Proposal") encompassing all documentation related to the matter included in the Agenda, the remote voting bulletin (“Bulletin”), the other documents provided for CVM Ruling No. 481, and other relevant information for the exercise of voting rights at the Meeting, were made available to the Company's Shareholders on this date, as provided for CVM Ruling 481, and can be accessed through the websites of the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission ("CVM") (www.cvm.gov.br), of the Company (www.braskem.com.br/ri) and of B3 S.A. – Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão (“B3”) (www.b3.com.br).

3. For the purposes of Article 141 of the Brazilian Corporation Law and CVM Instruction 165, of December 11, 1991, as well as Article 4, item I of CVM Instruction 481, the minimum percentage of voting capital to request the adoption of the multiple vote process for election of the members of the Company's Board of Directors at the Meeting is 5% (five percent). However, it should be clarified that the adoption of such form of voting is not a possible scenario for the Company, given that the number of common shares issued by the Company in circulation does not reach such quorum.

 

4. As permitted by the Brazilian Corporation Law and by IN CVM 481, the Meeting shall be held in an exclusively digital manner, reason why the Shareholders may only participate:

4.1. Since the Meeting will be held exclusively digitally, we emphasize that Shareholders who vote or participate in the Meeting, under any of the forms provided for herein (Bulletin or Digital Platform), and wish to request and/or vote in a separate election for the Company's Board of Directors, must send directly to the Company, by means of the e-mail braskem-ri@braskem.com, a statement of uninterrupted ownership interest pursuant to article 141, paragraph 6 of the Corporation Law.

 

5. Documents necessary to access the Digital Platform:

(iv)additionally, in case of representation of a Shareholder (individual, legal entity or investment fund) by a proxy, the respective power of attorney, granted in compliance with article 126, paragraph 1, of the Brazilian Corporation Law; and

 

(v)with respect to Shareholders participating in the fungible custody of registered shares, the statement containing the respective shareholding, issued by the competent entity.

 

Pursuant to article 5, §3 of IN CVM 481, Shareholders who do not submit the necessary participation documents within the period provided for herein will not be admitted accessing the Digital Platform.

 
 

 

 

If the Shareholder wishes to request a separate election for the Board of Directors, he/she must also submit, with the above-mentioned advance notice, the statement of uninterrupted participation, pursuant to article 141, paragraph 6 of the Brazilian Corporation Law.

 

The Company explains that shall waive the sending of the physical counterparts a of the Shareholders’ representation documents to the Company’s offices, as well as the certification of the authenticity of the grantor’s signature on the power of attorney for representation of the Shareholder, the notarization, the consularization, the annotation and the sworn translation of all of the Shareholder’s representation documents, sufficing to send a simple copy of the original counterparts of said documents to the Company’s e-mail stated above.

 

The Company does not accept powers of attorney granted by Shareholders through electronic means (i.e., digitally signed powers of attorney without any digital certification).

 

6. Detailed information on the rules and procedures for participating and/or remote voting in the Meeting, including instructions regarding access to the Digital Platform and for the sending of the Remote Voting Bulletin, are contained in the Manual for Shareholders’ Participation in the Meeting, in the Company’s Management Proposal and other documents available in the websites of the CVM (www.cvm.gov.br), of the Company (www.braskem.com.br/ri) and of B3 (www.b3.com.br).
