(e) Incident at the collecting substation of the jointly
controlled company VTRM Energia Participações S.A. (VTRM)
On February 12, 2021, an incident at the collecting substation that links
the companies in the Ventos do Araripe III complex, formed by wind far-
ms belonging to the jointly controlled VTRM, caused the remaining power
transformer to be disconnected from this substation. This caused a com-
plete interruption in the flow of power generation from the complex, since
the other transformer was out of operation due to an accident in June
2020. The park returned to commercial operation on April 29, 2021, the
final date of the repair of the transformer that had been out of operation
since June 2020. In the interim, while there is only one transformer, the
generation of the park will be limited.
Concerning the second incident, VTRM Management contacted the manu-
facturer of the transformer and the main companies in the sector to obtain
an opinion on the feasibility of the transformer's repair or need for replace-
ment, and, due to a favorable opinion on the likelihood of successful repair,
proceeded with its repair.
The interruption in the flow of power generation from the complex should
be reflected in the provision for annual reimbursement that the companies
calculate on a monthly basis due to the effective generation of energy, with a
consequent reduction in the net revenue of the companies, until the situation
is normalized. This impact has been minimized due to the insurance policy that
the subsidiaries have for the main risks associated with the assets, including da-
mage to transformers, with coverage for material damages and loss of profits.
During 2021, the subsidiary Votorantim Geração de Energia S.A. (VGE)
discussed with the insurer the assumptions involved in calculating the in-
demnity for claims and submitted its claim for evaluation.
With regard to the first claim, the insurer signaled in August 2021 that the
total indemnity amount will be around R$53 (R$ 5 for material damages and
R$ 48 for loss of profits).
On December 28, 2021, R$ 5 was received through the subsidiary of VTRM,
Ventos de Santo Augusto, and R$ 46 through the subsidiary VTRM, there is still
an outstanding amount of R$ 2, which will be paid in the first quarter of 2022.
(f) Issue of Certificates of Real Estate Receivables (CRI) -
Votorantim Cimentos S.A. (VCSA)

(VCNNE) issued Certificates of Real Estate Receivables (CRI) in the Brazilian

(g) 12th issue of debentures by VCSA

tricted placement efforts, maturing in 2026 and 2028, respectively.
