ROBERTO CARVALHO

Director-President-in-office

We understand that we are responsible for the major task expressed in the Framework Agreement and we will make every effort to comply with our obligations. Samarco has a great commitment to the impacted people and environment and will give full support to the Foundation and to the implementation of the programs in all work fronts, as provided in the signed document.�


SAMARCO Samarco is a Brazilian company, owned 50-50 by Vale S.A. and BHP Billiton Brasil Ltda., which has been producing iron ore pellets for almost 40 years. Its industrial facilities include three concentrators at the Germano unit in the municipalities of Ouro Preto and Mariana in Minas Gerais, and four pellet plants and a sea port in Ubu, Espírito Santo, on the coast. These two units are connected by three pipelines, of some 400 km each, which transport the iron ore slurry from Minas Gerais to Espírito Santo, crossing 29 municipalities. We deeply regret the Fundão Dam collapse in November 2015 and its impacts on the population, the communities and the environment. We understand that we are responsible for the huge task of trying to do what is right. To reiterate this commitment, in the beginning of March 2016 we signed an Framework Agreement (TTAC in the Portuguese acronym) together with our shareholders, VALE and BHP Billiton, and the Federal Government as well as the State Governments of Minas Gerais and Espírito Santo. The result of this Framework Agreement is the creation of a private Foundation which will be responsible for the implementation of programs focused on two main types of actions – socioeconomic and socioenvironmental. Named Renova, the Foundation started operating on August 2nd 2016, as established. In addition to new proposed projects, the document encompasses all of the emergency actions which Samarco has already been carrying out since last November to provide relief for the impacted people and to mitigate the environmental impacts.

THE FRAMEWORK AGREEMENT The Framework Agreement (TTAC in the Portuguese acronym) established between Samarco, its shareholders, Vale and BHP Billiton, the Federal Government, as well as the state governments of Minas Gerais and EspĂ­rito Santo was signed on March 2nd, 2016. It is considered a milestone in post-environmental accident recovery and reparation processes. The document focuses on socio-environmental and socioeconomic actions, maintaining what is being adopted by Samarco since November, besides establishing clear commitments, defining deadlines for the submission and execution of any new projects and also setting transparency and accountability rules. More than 90% of the socio-environmental and socioeconomic programs have already been started. They may all be accompanied by the affected populations, there will be external audits and an ombudsman will be created to serve the citizens.

SOCIO-ECONOMIC ACTIONS Reconstruction - Bento Rodrigues One of the actions provided for in the Framework Agreement is the reconstruction of communities. On May 7th, 2016, representatives of 223 of the 226 families that used to live in Bento Rodrigues elected the place where the new community will be built. With 92% of votes, the area known as Lavoura was chosen. The voting criteria were defined with the participation of the residents and of representatives of the Public Prosecutor’s Office of Minas Gerais (MPMG). Given a MPMG request, technical area feasibility studies will be deepened. The next step, also with community participation, will be the definition of the community’s urban project.

SOCIO-ECONOMIC ACTIONS Reconstruction - Gesteira Representatives of families from Gesteira, district of Barra Longa, elected, in 25 June, the site for reconstruction of the eight homes and public facilities impacted by the collapse of the FundĂŁo dam. Among these are a church, a parochial meeting hall, and a soccer field. With 95% of the votes, the area called Fazenda Gesteira was the one chosen. The site has an area of 7 hectares and is located next to the main block of the district, in compliance with the requests of the community. During the process of election of the site, the families from the Gesteira district were heard and the voting was carried out in two phases. First, the families that lost their homes chose the land for the reconstruction of the houses. Next, the community, jointly, defined the site where the public facilities would be rebuilt. After today, discussions will focus on the architectural and urbanistic design, along with the construction standards of the residences. An individual dialogue will also be held with the families for the definition of details such as exact location, structure and finishing details of each home. Once these individual agreements have been made, it is expected that the engineering design will be ready by the end of the year.

Of this, 10.5 million cubic meters were deposited in its Candonga reservoir. • So far, some 400 thousand cubic meters of tailings have already been removed from Candonga. By July 2017, Samarco will finish removing 1.3 million cubic meters of sediments from the site. • This volume represents the cleaning out of the first 400 meters of the dam, working backwards from the plant´s gates, which is necessary for the plant to be able to resume generating energy. • Samarco has an emergency action plan in place in conjunction with the Candonga Consortium and Civil Defense, in the event it is necessary to deploy it during the coming rainy season. However, all of the containment and dredging work is sufficient to cope with this period.
