A part of the net proceeds from the tap offering of 2025 Notes will be used to redeem in full the outstanding 9.250% Senior Notes due 2020 (144A CUSIP/ISIN: 38045U AD2/US38045UAD28; Regulation S CUSIP/ISIN: G3980P AD7/USG3980PAD71) (the “ 2020 Notes ”) issued by Gol Finance, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability in the Cayman Islands (“Gol Finance Cayman”).
