Mr. Marcelo Araújo, previously consulted, informed that (a) is not incurred in any offense that prevents him to carrying out the duties to the position of which he was appointed; (b) does not have positions in companies that may be considered competitors with the Company; and (c) has no conflict of interest with the Company, in accordance to the article 147 of the Law nr. 6,404/76.

From October 1st to December 31st, 2018, Mr. Marcelo Araújo will have the support of Mr. Leocadio during its integration period at Ipiranga, assuring a planned and effective transition.
