SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS OF PETRÓLEO BRASILEIRO S.A. – PETROBRAS

MAY 25^th, 2015

STATEMENT OF VOTE OF SHAREHOLDER

PREVI – CAIXA DE PREVIDÊNCIA DOS FUNCIONÁRIOS DO BANCO DO BRASIL

Mr. Chairman,

CAIXA DE PREVIDÊNCIA DOS FUNCIONÁRIOS DO BANCO DO BRASIL S.A. – PREVI, in the capacity of minority shareholder of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – Petrobras (“Company”), having 0.71% of common shares, 6.32% of preferred shares issued and 2.81% of Company´s capital stock, in attention to issues included in the Agenda of the Special Meeting of Shareholders of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – PETROBRAS (“PETROBRAS”), on May 25^th, 2015, namely, resolution on the Administration Report and Financial Statements, with an Opinion of the Executive Committee, related to the accounting period ended on December 31^st, 2014, according to notice of meeting on April 22^nd, 2015, pursuant to such Special Meeting of Shareholders, declare its vote as follows:

The Report of the Company´s Board of Directors devotes one section to the reflections of Lava Jato (“Car Wash”) Operation in the Company, which, by recommendation of the Company´s executives, recognized a downfall of R$ 6.194 million in the third quarter of 2014. In the view of the Board of Directors, such amount represents the sum that Petrobras additionally paid in the acquisition of fixed assets in previous periods. Such amount was found from a methodology to estimate additional expenditures, admitting that Petrobras could not identify the sums of each overpayment made to suppliers implicated in the Lava Jato (“Car Wash”) Operation.

On one hand, we agree on the decision of a member of the Board of Directors, registered in the Minute of RCA, on April 22^nd, 2015, substantiated in a legal opinion that states “the impracticality of the exact measurement of sums supposedly paid as overpricing.” The methodology applied in it only take into consideration the confessions of criminal acts perpetrated by two former executives, which indicated the commission percentage used, a number of suppliers allegedly involved in the cartelization and overcharging of works and services. Some investigations were converted into indictments, but it does not represent convictions at the end of the legal procedure. On the other hand, we disagree on the said Board in that the assessment should not be performed, once it has strong evidences that the Company was severely aggrieved in its property and that such percentage applied is ground for a posterior new adjustment of capitalized investments. It is certain that the accounting adjustments must have support in legal-fact condition. It is early to understand the operation outcome and to prove participation on criminal facts of all companies mentioned in state´s evidences. However, the Company must be conservative at this moment, pointing out to the market its desire to rectify illegal acts and indicating that its assets will not be overvalued.

In effect, the Explanatory Notes of the Financial Statements (Note 3) clarify that Petrobras “will follow the results on investigations and the availability of other information related to the overpayment schemes and, in case such information is available, which precisely indicates that estimates described must be readjusted, the Company will evaluate if the adjustment é substantial, and, as the case may be, will recognize it.” It could not be otherwise.

Therefore, considering that Financial Statements presented meet the legal requirements approved by Pricewaterhouse external audit, without exception, PREVI, in the capacity of Petrobras´ minority shareholder, states its votes, relative to ordinary shares which holds, to approve, with exceptions, the Report of the Board of Directors of 2014 and the Financial Statements, that in view of possible outcomes from the Lava Jato (“Car Wash”) Operation and due to evidences of crimes perpetrated that have not yet correctly realized its impacts, PREVI understands that the Company´s administrators must not be exonerated from their responsibilities, for the time being, by any of the facts already disclosed, though none of them who hold office in 2014 have not been implicated in the investigations, at first and until it is known by such shareholder.

Accordingly, the statement of vote was based on documents and information available to Petrobras´ shareholders up to now, wherein PREVI is entitle to further state on illegal acts and facts posteriorly disclosed.

Therefore, REQUEST that such statement is annexed and entered upon the minutes of the Special Meeting of Shareholders.

VOTE, PROTEST AND STATEMENT OF TEMPO CAPITAL PRINCIPAL SHARE OF INVESTMENT FUNDS (“Tempo Capital”) presented to the Board of the Special Meeting of Shareholders (“SMS”) of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – Petrobras (“Company”), held on May 25^th, 2015, at 03:00 PM.

1. Initially, in this SMS and until the payment of minimum dividend provided in article 5o, § 2o of the Company´s Articles of Incorporation, the right of vote of Company´s preferred shares will be recognized, according to article 111, § 1^st of Act 6.404, 1976. Tempo Capital votes on the REJECTION of the Board Proposal related to item (1) of the Agenda of the SMS, by reasons given as follows. Such vote serves as PROTEST, in case of non-observance of preferred shareholder with right to vote.

2. Without prejudice of item 1 above, Tempo Capital shareholder presents the following statement to the Board of the Special Meeting of Shareholders, to be subjected to other shareholders of the Company, with reasons in which consider the rejection of the Financial Statements submitted to the conclave, and with exceptions to administrators´ account for purposes of the release presented in article 134, §3^rd of Act 6.404, 1976;

3. Initially, it is important to mention that the Financial Statements submitted to shareholder´s appreciation has evidences – according to criteria adopted by the Board of Directors – of the losses arising from the corruption scheme under investigation in the Lava Jato (“Car Wash”) Operation. Without further comments on a subject already of public domain, including Company´s and shareholder´s knowledge, it was estimated the sum of R$ 6.194 billion as overpayments; however there is no evidence to the amount of overpayments paid in 2014 fiscal year. The information presented do not explain the premises used or internal investigations made to verify the overpricing accredited to such assets; after all, it was not only the estimated corruption of R$ 6.194 billion that jeopardized the Company, but overpricing on projects and/or assets questioned and with expected return. Thus, a shareholder does not have the necessary information to verify if the write-offs are adequate or sufficient to adjust the balance of the Company. Besides that, the Company´s mismanagement created losses of R$ 30.976 billion due to, among other factors, “problems in projects´ planning. In both cases, it is possible to mention violation of legal duties of diligence, loyalty and fideicommissum by the Company´s Administration. Based on information presented in the Financial Statements, it is not possible to separate such acts from the 2014 fiscal year and others accredited to previous administrations, some of which counted with the participation of current administrators. Therefore, it is important to except such matters from the release presented in article 134, §3o of Act 6.404, 1976. The Company´s Independent Directors mentioned such concerns in its statements but, apparently, the remaining Board indicated by the Controlling Shareholder ignored them.

4. Apart from the matters previously indicated, it should be noted that the Explanatory Note No. 22.7 informs that “in the fiscal year ended on December 31^st, 2014, the Administrations reached its goals and, despite the absence of profit in the fiscal year, and according to the new methodology settled in the collective-bargaining agreement, the Company provisioned R$ 1.045 of interest in the result. It is important to register that, according to Act 10.101, 2000, the Company´s Administration, in negotiation with its employees, might establish other goals than the profits to determine employees´ interest in profits or results.

However, such goals – which are not presented in the Financial Statements – must be established towards the Company´s best interest, and observing its other stakeholders. It is unlikely the establishment of reasonable goals to Company´s profit share, when it is recognized in an fiscal year (i) without positive accounting results; (ii) with absence of growth relevant to Oil Production, LNG, Condensated and Natural Gas; (iii) growth of approximately 28% in Company´s leverage; (iv) reduction of 11% in book value and 40% in Company´s market value; (v) delay on performance and closing of relevant projects to Company; (vi) policy of fuel pricing that generated losses to the Company, mainly in the first half of 2014; (viii) significant downfalls in Company´s main indicators, including, without limitation, its EBITDA; among other elements that defines 2014 as Company´s annus horriblis. However, it is evident that the Company´s Administration, whether its Board of Directors or its Executive Board, did not noticed the Company´s best interest and did not complied with its fiduciary duties while establishing profit share conditions. Furthermore, Mauro Rodrigues da Cunha in its statement of vote, while dealing with the issue, points out “under paragraph 3^rd, Clause Three of the Collective-Bargaining Agreement, the limit for profit share payment is ZERO.” However, it is necessary to verify such Agreement for congruence with the result obtained by the Company´s shareholders. Therefore, it is necessary to except such issues from the release provided in §3^rd, article 134 of Act 6.404, 1976.

5. Thirdly, it is important to mention that, in this fiscal year, the Company´s Administration chose not to declare the allocation of minimum dividend provided in article 5, § 2^nd of the Article of Incorporation. Such behavior happened although the Company had immediate financial availabilities of R$ 44.239 million and reserves over R$ 104.802 million. Although willing to preserve its cash, the Administration had the obligation to declare such dividends, even if it choose to pay them in the future. The non-payment of compensation to preferred shareholders, besides questionable from a legal aspect, shows even more unreasonable and inconsistent pursuant to events described in items 2 and 3.

6.  Thus, this instrument serves as Statement, containing the reasons in which the Company´s shareholders must reject the Financial Statements submitted to approval of this conclave, and with exceptions to administrators´ account for purposes of the release presented in article 134, §3^rd of Act 6.404, 1976. It is important to mention that the “approval or cause of approval of irregular administrators´ accounts, by personal favoritism, or dispense the investigation of information knowing to be granted, or reason justification of alleged irregularity” (Article 117, §1^st of Act 6.404, 1976) is an abusive form of exercise of power.

7. It is relevant to register that, according to the terms of the OFFICIAL LETTER/CVM/SEP/No.002/2015, in its item 2.4.4., the Company must include in the digital file containing this Minutes, in the APE system, in the Brazilian Securities Commission “possible statement of votes, dissent or protest”. Notice that this is not the Company´s best practice. The Director of Governance, Risk, and Conformity must pay attention to it.

ACTUAL BALANCE SHEET OF PETROBRAS

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I am José Martins Ribeiro, candidate of Director, representative of the preferred minority shareholders, wherein candidate of the 2^nd category, however, Mr. Guilherme Affonso Ferreira, candidate of 1^st category, register of attorneys, including publicity of Petrobras´ website, as relevant fact. My question is To Whom is Mr. Affonso will serve. If he sold his soul to the Devil, with no shred of doubt, he will be a controller´s stooge. On the the hand, Mr. Murilo Ferreira cannot handle his management at Vale S.A., he cannot fix his own backyard, so how will be able to fix other´s backyard?

It was disappointing that Petrobras´ chairman could not be able to attend the most important Meeting of the Company. The sad part was the hiring of a Person who almost use its whip, but I think he forgot it at home. Now, let´s talk about the technical issue: the proprietary accounting registers all administrative, permutative, amending and mixed facts. All registers are based on cash or extra cash accounting documents. According to such elements, we reach the proprietary balance, result statement and other statements pertinent to corporations. As of fiscal year result statement, we reach a point so-called EBITDA, i.e., (profit before interests, taxes, depreciations and amortizations) such amount is approximately R$ 21.6 billion, and then it starts the distribution of profits, employee´s sharing and other distributions, taxes, statutory contributions, reaching the net profit where the dividend calculation is processed to shareholder, including the Government, who, through its Administration, lies the Brazilian people - real owner of Petrobras. Then, we have Petrobras´ real balance sheet, the result of the exhaustive work of all its employees – career or contracted charts. However, all acts performed that gave rise to Petrobras´ loss, such as Assets Devaluation of approximately R$ 44.6 billion, downfall of R$ 6.2 billion, due to “Lava Jato (Car Wash”) Operation”, provisioning of loss in the energy sector with account receivables of R$ 4.5 billion, downfall of refinery Premium I and II of approximately R$ 2.8 billion and the voluntary shutdown of approximately R$ 2.4, totaling the amount of approximately R$ 60.5 billion, all such figures were presented on Petrobras´ website and on newspapers. Such information is presented on article 117, Act 6.404 of 12/15/1976 (article 117 – The controlling shareholder is responsible for damage caused by acts performed with abuse of power).

In conclusion:

a)    Mr. Guilherme Affonso Ferreira is not our representative and does not have the requirements. He entered the Board of Directors from the backdoor, and he worked in the financial market, where has almost no credibility. Mr. Ferreira should resign from his post. Petrobras must call for another election with the same conditions to all candidates. I would appreciate a previous questionnaire in order to evaluate the next chosen person;

b)    Mr. Murilo Ferreira should resign and manage Vale S.A., which needs its exclusive dedication, answering the shareholders´ calling;

c)    All amount generated by acts performed in violation of the Business Corporation Law (article 117 and its paragraphs) should be assessed in an extra proprietary account (compensation account) under the responsibility of the controlling shareholder, which must be written-off with the occurrence of the so-called defalcation recoveries or assets recovery. Petrobras is prepared to a new development. The Brazilian people, who is real owner of Petrobras, through its shareholders, are different.

Finally:

For those who promised that things were about to chance, well, it started with the wrong foot. Certain laws must be revoked in Petrobras and in Brazil, such as:

a)    Murici Law: Every man for himself;

b)    Saint Fancis law: It is in “stealing” that we receive (adaptation);

c)    Gerson Law: I want to take advantage of everything;

I expect that Petrobras finds its own way, in relation to it employees´ chart, whether employees and contracted charts. Rise up and be proud of its honest and productive work, which cannot be spotted by acts of half a dozen of traitors.

Justification of Vote of Minority Shareholder of AEPET – Association of Engineers of Petrobras, in the Special Meeting of Shareholders of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – PETROBRAS, held on 05/25/2015, at 03:00 PM (local time).

Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen Shareholders,

In the exercise of the right to supervise, a known shareholder´s essential prerogative, according to article 109, II, of Act 6.404/76, the minority shareholder, AEPET, ASSOCIATION OF ENGINEERS OF PETROBRAS – AEPET and others who desires to follow it – justified the vote the issues of the Agenda in this Special Meeting of Shareholders. Based on article 130 of the aforementioned Act, we request its entire transcription in the Minutes of this Meeting.

1 – PETROBRAS´ DEFENSE AGAINST CORRUPTION

The corruption´s attempt of the State-owned company is a historical problem; its nature is systematic and goes far beyond Petrobras´ and present Government. However, it is undeniable the great increase of the Company´s institutional fragility, in relation to its suppliers of goods and services.

“The Lava Jato (Cars Wash) Operation” has revealed how private business owners were organized in cartel in order to obtain overrated contracts and to prejudice Petrobras. In order to prevail the private interest over Petrobras´ interest and the majority of the society, the private business owners used influence peddling in conjunction with politicians to indicate hire employees in the top of the corporate hierarchy.

We understand the legal milestone of State-owned companies must be obeyed, which guarantees a competitive act according to private companies, but it does not allowed Social Function deviations to which exists. Thus, criteria must be established so that the choice of the members of the Executive Committee and Board of Directors must favors competence, independence, ethics and trustworthiness for being agents of the Social Function. A Management Contract must be established between officials and Government with a constant accountability.

Historically, AEPET denounces the prevalence of private interest in relation to private business owners and Petrobras. AEPET presented this subject on several letters to the Company´s executive board and in votes on Company´s meetings. We registered that, in our several votes, we pointed out agreements such as EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction), as harmful because it increases costs, reduces quality and, makes Company hostage of contractor, who has no commitment to the results Enterprise of the Enterprise. The performance of enterprises of COMPERJ, RNEST, PREMIUM 1 and PREMIUM 2 was carried out using this model, a real setback in relation to the successful historical practice of Petrobras – which resulted in a harmful practice to the Company´s interest. A center of excellence was created for EPC!

On March 17^th, 2015, in order to cure these fragilities, we sent a letter to Chairman Aldemir Bendine, in which we presented 14 initiatives of corporate nature to the Company´s defense. These proposals were the result of volunteer work from many experienced and competent professionals. The letter is available at www.aepet.org.br.

AEPET – Association of Engineers of Petrobras does not approve the 2014 accounts for two reasons:

1. Due to use of inadequate actuarial premises by Petros, in relation to the actual growth of salaries and the familiar composition of the beneficiaries, Petrobras´ commitment towards Petros was undervalued.
2. There was not an accounting downfall in the first Train of Abreu e Lima Refinery, when its accounting cost is definitely overvalued, since the international average maximum cost for construction of refineries is US$ 35 thousand/capacity of refined barrel, and Abreu e Lima Refinery presents a cost over US$ 80 thousand/capacity of refined barrel.

In conclusion, the problem with corruption in Petrobras will not only be settle with punishment to those involved in Lava Jato (“Car Wash”) Operation. Such process has been developed for decades and has had a harmful effect over Petrobras and the Country. The Company´s controllers indulged themselves at its and the Country´s expenses. They have caused a profound loss to the Company´s image and they must be punished for it. Besides, it is clear the fragility of the succession processes in the institution in order to prevent corruption. It is necessary to implement an effective staff policy, which privileges merit and responsibility of all with their processes.

The fragility the system´s planning - conducted by foreigners – and Company´s controls allowed that a new interference of interests from strangers – whether by consultancies, economics, government and political parties, led us to a terrible finance, image and governance fragility situation, despite the technological successes and good economic capacity. In order to improve itself, we have to adopt new proceedings of nomination of members in the Board of Directors and members of the Executive Board, which could favor its competence, ethics, trustworthiness and strong commitment to Petrobras´ social and strategic mission.

We profoundly regret that our several alerts and warnings expressed in this distinguished Meeting, due to experience and knowledge of members committed to Petrobras, have not been taken into due consideration by its Managements. A significant part of these problems would probably have been avoided if such event had occurred.

Rio de Janeiro, May 25^th, 2015.
