in CNPJ/ME under no. 23.863.529/0001-34 ("FIP Astra") and BMPI Infra S.A., a corporation registered in CNPJ/ME under no. 24.416.909/0001-93
("BMPI") ("Purchase and Sale Agreement"), through which CSN Energia and CSN, now succeeded by CMIN, committed to acquire
100% (one hundred percent) of the shares issued by Companhia Energética Chapecó – CEC, which is the concession holder
for the operation of the Quebra-Queixo Hydroelectric Power Plant ("Chapecó"), owned by FIP Astra and BMPI ("Operation"),

Sale Agreement. As a result of the assignment and transfer subject to the Assignment Instrument, and in accordance with the terms provided
