INTRODUCTION

This Amendment No. 5 to the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement (together with the exhibits attached hereto, the “Final Amendment”) amends and supplements the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 25, 2025 (as amended by the Amendments No. 1 through 4 filled with the SEC on August 1, 2025, August 22, 2025, October 27, 2025 and November 18, 2025, respectively, the “Initial Schedule 13E-3”). This Final Amendment is being filed pursuant to Rule 13e-3(d)(3) under the Exchange Act to report the results of the transaction that is the subject of this Schedule 13E-3.

Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meaning given to them in the Shareholder Participation Manual or the Initial Schedule 13E-3, as applicable. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the information set forth in the Initial Schedule 13E-3 remains unchanged and is incorporated by reference into this Final Amendment. All information set forth in this Final Amendment shall be read together with the information contained in or incorporated by reference in the Initial Schedule 13E-3.

On December 22, 2025, we settled the Corporate Action in Brazil, with the delivery of the common shares to former holders of preferred shares. On December 26, 2025, we delivered Common ADSs to former holders of Preferred ADS pursuant to the terms of the Corporate Action. As of the date hereof, the Company does not have preferred shares or Preferred ADSs outstanding.

As a result of the Corporate Action, the Preferred ADSs will no longer be listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). The Company has requested NYSE to file an application on Form 25 with the SEC to remove the Preferred ADSs Shares from listing on the NYSE and withdraw registration of the Preferred ADSs under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. The deregistration will become effective 90 days after the filing of the Form 25 or such shorter period as may be determined by the SEC. In addition, we will file a certification and notice on Form 15 with the SEC to suspend our reporting obligations under U.S. securities laws with respect to our preferred shares and the Preferred ADSs. We will remain subject to the reporting obligations under U.S. securities laws with respect to our common shares and the Common ADSs.
