Petrobras prepay partial debt to Petros
—
Rio de Janeiro, December 17, 2020 –
Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – Petrobras informs that it has done today the partial prepayment of the Pre-70 Term of Financial
Commitment (TFC Pre-70), celebrated with the Fundação Petrobras de Seguridade Social (Petros), in the amount of R$
94 million and will do in January 2021 the partial prepayment of R$ 4.493 billion.
The TFC Pre-70 was signed in 2008 and
is part of the Reciprocal Obligations Agreement (ROA), signed with Petros and several trade unions in 2006. The TFC Pre-70 disciplines
the form of payment of obligations, of an actuarial nature, assumed by Petrobras. The ROA allowed the company to promote a series
of regulatory adjustments in the Petrobras System Petros Plan (PPSP) and the offer of a new benefit plan (Petros-2 Plan) to employees
hired after the PPSP was closed to new adhesions.
With the split process of the Pre-70
Group for the Petros under Pre-70 Petrobras System Renegotiated (PPSP-R Pre-70) and Pre-70 Petrobras System Non-Renegotiated (PPSP-NR
Pre-70) plans occurred in 2019, an amendment was signed to the TFC Pre-70 with the objective, among others, to establish the possibility
of advance payments by Petrobras.
The prepayments are in line with the
company's liability management process, reducing interest expenses and the amount of real guarantees, in addition to contributing
to improving the liquidity of the plans.
It is worth mentioning that the TFC
Pre-70 is a commitment already registered in Petrobras' Financial Statements, composing the register of the actuarial liability
value, as explained in note "14. Employee benefits" of the 3Q20 Quarterly Information.
