Accounting policy for provisions for legal proceedings, contingent liabilities and contingent assets

The Company recognizes provisions for legal, administrative and arbitration proceedings when the technical assessment of its legal advisors and the judgment of management consider that it is more likely than not that a present obligation exists and the other conditions to recognize a provision are met, including that it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation.

Contingent liabilities are not recognized but are disclosed in explanatory notes when the likelihood of outflows is possible, including those whose amounts cannot be estimated, considering the best information available to the date of the issuance of these financial statements.

The methodology used to estimate the provisions is described in note 4.5.

Contingent assets are not recognized, but are disclosed in explanatory notes when the inflow of economic benefits is considered probable and the amount is considered material. However, if the inflow of economic benefits is virtually certain, which, in general, considers the final and unappealable decision, and if the value can be reliably measured, the related asset is not a contingent asset anymore and it is recognized.
