4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of

on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the redemption date to the Par Call Date (the &#8220;Remaining Life&#8221;); or (2) if there
is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields &#8211; one yield corresponding to the
Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately

days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15
shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life.
For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date

such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date, as
applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury

a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding

together with the Base Indenture, the &#8220;<U>Indenture</U>&#8221;), among the Company, the Guarantor and The Bank of New York Mellon,

<P STYLE="font: 12pt Times New Roman,serif; margin: 0pt 0pt 12pt; text-align: justify">such investigations of law, as we have deemed appropriate
as a basis for the opinions expressed below.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 12pt Times New Roman,serif; margin: 0 0 12pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt">In rendering the opinions expressed
below, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents
submitted to us as copies. In addition, we have assumed and have not verified the accuracy as to factual matters of each document we have
reviewed and that the Notes will be duly authenticated in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 12pt Times New Roman,serif; margin: 0 0 12pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt">Based on the foregoing, and subject
to the further assumptions and qualifications set forth below, it is our opinion that, when the Indenture, the Notes and the Guaranty
have been duly executed and delivered by Vale Overseas and Vale in the forms thereof that we have examined and the Notes have been duly
delivered to and paid for by the purchasers thereof in the manner described in the Registration Statement, the Notes will be valid, binding
and enforceable obligations of Vale Overseas, entitled to the benefits of the Indenture, and the Guaranty will be a valid, binding and
enforceable obligation of Vale, entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 12pt Times New Roman,serif; margin: 0 0 12pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt">Insofar as the foregoing opinion
relates to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any agreement or obligation of Vale or Vale Overseas, (a) we have assumed
that each of Vale and Vale Overseas, as the case may be, and each other party to such agreement or obligation has satisfied those legal
requirements that are applicable to it to the extent necessary to make such agreement or obligation enforceable against it (except that
no such assumption is made as to Vale or Vale Overseas regarding matters of the federal law of the United States of America or the law
of the State of New York that in our experience normally would be applicable to general business entities in relation to transactions
of the type contemplated in the Indenture and the Securities), (b) such opinions are subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and
similar laws affecting creditors&#8217; rights generally and to general principles of equity and (c) such opinions are subject to the
effect of judicial application of foreign laws or foreign governmental actions affecting creditors&#8217; rights.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 12pt Times New Roman,serif; margin: 0 0 12pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt">We express no opinion as to the
subject matter jurisdiction of any United States federal court to adjudicate any action relating to the Securities where jurisdiction
based on diversity of citizenship under 28 U.S.C. &sect; 1332 does not exist.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 12pt Times New Roman,serif; margin: 0 0 12pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 72pt">In addition, we note that (a) the
enforceability in the United States of the waiver in Section 1.14 of the Base Indenture by each of Vale and Vale Overseas of any immunities
from court jurisdiction and from legal process is subject to the limitations imposed by the U.S. Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976
and (b) the designation in Section 1.14 of the Base Indenture of the U.S. federal courts located in the Borough of Manhattan, city of
New York as the venue for actions or proceedings relating to the Base Indenture and the Securities is (notwithstanding the waiver in Section
1.14) subject to the power of such courts to transfer actions pursuant to 28 U.S.C. &sect; 1404(a) or to dismiss such actions or proceedings
on the grounds that such a federal court is an inconvenient forum for such actions or proceedings.</P>

a matter of public policy in New York.</P>
