In order to find out whether the investor is the holder of shareholders debentures issued by Vale, it
is necessary to look for a branch of the bank Bradesco S.A., the bookkeeping agent of Vale's
shareholders debentures, with personal identification documents (ID, Individual Taxpayer ID - CPF -
and Proof of Residence), as well as a proof of bank domicile.
There is no charge by Bradesco or Vale for providing information on the shareholders debentures or
for updating the registration.
