Vale S.A. (&ldquo;Vale&rdquo; or &ldquo;Company&rdquo;) clarifies press reports, notably the article issued on this date by the news agency
Reuters&sup1;, about possible legal proceeding filed by the Federal Public Prosecutor&rsquo;s Office and the States of Minas Gerais and
Esp&iacute;rito Santo Public Prosecutors&rsquo; Office against Vale, BHP and their joint venture Samarco Minera&ccedil;&atilde;o S.A.
(the &quot;Companies&quot;) with a compensation claim of R$ 3.6 billion for collective moral damages. The Company informs that it was
not formally notified by the Court about this legal proceeding and will present its arguments to the competent court in due course. Vale
reiterates that the process of repairing damages resulting from the Fund&atilde;o dam in 2015 is led by the Renova Foundation in line
with the commitments entered by the Companies with the Brazilian authorities. With Samarco, BHP, institutions of Justice and authorities&rsquo;
representatives, the Company remains committed to negotiations for a definitive agreement, able to ensure fair and full reparation to
the affected people and the environment.</P>
