<p style="font: 11pt/95% Georgia, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 10pt">We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated interim statement of
financial position of Vale S.A. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2024, and the related consolidated interim
income statement and statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023
and the consolidated interim statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30,
2023, including the related notes (collectively referred to as the "interim financial statements"). Based on our reviews, we
are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying interim financial statements for them to be in conformity
with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB).</p>

<p style="font: 11pt/95% Georgia, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 10pt">We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated statement of financial position of the Company as of December
31, 2023, and the related consolidated income statement and statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the
year then ended (not presented herein), and in our report dated February 22, 2024, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated
financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position as of
December 31, 2023, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated statement of financial position from which
it has been derived.</p>

are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the
PCAOB. A review of interim financial statements consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons
responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards
of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly,
we do not express such an opinion.</p>

the structure used by Management to evaluate the Company&#8217;s performance. The responsible bodies for making operational decisions,
allocating resources and evaluating performance are the Executive Committee and Board of Directors. Accordingly, the performance of the
operating segments is assessed based on a measure of adjusted EBITDA, among other measures.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify">In 2024, consistently with the reports analyzed by
the executive committee and Board of Directors, the Company changed its adjusted EBITDA definition to include the &#8220;EBITDA from
associates and joint ventures&#8221;, which is a measure of their &#8220;equity results&#8221; (note 14) excluding (i) net finance costs;
(ii) depreciation, depletion, and amortization; (iii) taxation and (iv) impairments.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify">Therefore, the Company&#8217;s adjusted EBITDA is defined
as operating income or loss, including the EBITDA from interests in associates and joint ventures; and excluding (i) depreciation, depletion,
and amortization; and (ii) impairment and results on disposal of non-current assets, net and other. The comparative information in these
interim financial statements was revised to reflect this change in the adjusted EBITDA definition.</p>

assets and the governance established for the Energy Transition Metals segment, the &#8220;Other&#8221; segment was reorganized for a
better allocation of direct effects on the Iron Ore Solutions and Energy Transition Metals businesses. These effects were allocated to
each segment starting from the six-month period ended June 30, 2024.</p>

sales &#8211;</b></span> The Company is mainly exposed to iron ore and copper price risk. The determination of the final sales price for
these commodities is based on the pricing period outlined in the sales contracts, typically occurring after the revenue recognition date.
Consequently, the Company initially recognizes revenue using a provisional invoice. Subsequently, the receivables associated with provisionally
priced products are measured at fair value through profit or loss (note 19). Any fluctuations in the value of these receivables are reflected
in the Company's net operating revenue.</p>

Tbk (&#8220;PTVI&#8221;) &#8211;</b></span> PTVI has a contract of work with the government of Indonesia to operate its mining licenses
(&#8220;Contract of Work&#8221;), expiring in December 2025. To extend the period of the mining licenses beyond 2025, PTVI must meet certain
requirements under the Contract of Work, including the commitment to meet a threshold of Indonesian participants in its shareholding structure.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">In November 2023, the Company signed a Heads of Agreement with
PT Mineral Industri Indonesia (&#8220;MIND ID&#8221;) and Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd. (&#8220;SMM&#8221;) regarding the divestment
obligation in PTVI. Therefore, since the year ended December 31, 2023, PTVI assets and liabilities were classified as held for sale.</p>

reduced its interests in PTVI in approximately 10.5%. This divestment was carried out through (i) the issuance of PTVI&#8217;s new shares,
thereby diluting Vale in 2.1%, and (ii) by the direct sale of 8.4% of Vale&#8217;s shares to MIND ID. As a result of the transaction,
MIND ID became PTVI's largest shareholder, holding approximately 34.0% of the issued shares, with the Company and SMM holding approximately
33.9% and 11.5%, respectively. The completion of the transaction fulfills the divestment obligations of the Contract of Work and satisfies
a key condition for PTVI to extend its mining license until 2035, with potential extension beyond this period subject to certain requirements.</p>

a failure at the C&#243;rrego do Feij&#227;o mine, in the city of Brumadinho, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The failure released
a flow of tailings debris, destroying some of Vale&#8217;s facilities, affecting local communities and disturbing the environment. The
tailings released have caused an impact of around 315 km in extension, reaching the nearby Paraopeba River. The dam failure in Brumadinho
(&#8220;event&#8221;) resulted in 270 fatalities or presumed fatalities and caused extensive property and environmental damage in the
region.</p>

the agreement specifies an amount for each project and changes in the original budget and deadlines may have an impact in the provision.
In addition, the execution of the environmental recovery actions has no cap limit despite having been estimated in the Settlement for
Integral Reparation due to the Company's legal obligation to fully repair the environmental damage caused by the dam failure. The expenses
related to these obligations are deducted from the income tax calculation, in accordance with the Brazilian tax regulation, which is subject
to periodic inspection by the competent authorities. Therefore, although Vale is monitoring this provision, the amount recorded could
materially change depending on several factors that are not under the Company&#8217;s control.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify">The segments are aligned with products and reflect
the structure used by Management to evaluate the Company&#8217;s performance. The responsible bodies for making operational decisions,
allocating resources and evaluating performance are the Executive Committee and Board of Directors. Accordingly, the performance of the
operating segments is assessed based on a measure of adjusted EBITDA, among other measures.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify">In 2024, consistently with the reports analyzed by
the executive committee and Board of Directors, the Company changed its adjusted EBITDA definition to include the &#8220;EBITDA from
associates and joint ventures&#8221;, which is a measure of their &#8220;equity results&#8221; (note 14) excluding (i) net finance costs;
(ii) depreciation, depletion, and amortization; (iii) taxation and (iv) impairments.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify">Therefore, the Company&#8217;s adjusted EBITDA is defined
as operating income or loss, including the EBITDA from interests in associates and joint ventures; and excluding (i) depreciation, depletion,
and amortization; and (ii) impairment and results on disposal of non-current assets, net and other. The comparative information in these
interim financial statements was revised to reflect this change in the adjusted EBITDA definition.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify">Additionally, as a result of the reorganization of
assets and the governance established for the Energy Transition Metals segment, the &#8220;Other&#8221; segment was reorganized for a
better allocation of direct effects on the Iron Ore Solutions and Energy Transition Metals businesses. These effects were allocated to
each segment starting from the six-month period ended June 30, 2024.</p>

<p style="font: bold 9pt Calibri, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0; color: navy; text-align: justify">&#160;</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">In December 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation
and Development (&#8220;OECD&#8221;) released the Pillar Two model rules to reform international corporate taxation. Multinational economic
groups within the scope of these rules are required to calculate their effective tax rate in each country where they operate, the &#8220;GloBE
effective tax rate&#8221;.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">&#160;</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">When the effective GloBE rate of any entity in the economic
group, aggregated by jurisdiction where the group operates, is lower than the minimum rate defined at 15%, the multinational group must
pay a supplementary amount of tax on profit, referring to the difference between its rate effective GloBE and the minimum tax rate.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">&#160;</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">From 2024, the Company is subject to OECD Pillar Two model
rules in the Netherlands, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Japan and Luxembourg. However, there was no material impact on Company&#8217;s
income tax computation due to this matter and it does not expect any further impact on its future financial statements.</p>

<p style="font: bold 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; color: #007E7A; text-align: justify">&#160;</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify">Income tax expense is recognized based on the estimate
of the weighted average effective tax rate expected for the full year, adjusted for the tax effect of certain items that are recognized
in full on the interim tax calculation. Therefore, the effective tax rate in the interim financial statements may differ from management&#8217;s
estimate of the effective tax rate for the year. The reconciliation of the taxes calculated according to the nominal tax rates and the
amount of taxes recorded is shown below:</p>

sales &#8211;</b></span> The Company is mainly exposed to iron ore and copper price risk. The determination of the final sales price for
these commodities is based on the pricing period outlined in the sales contracts, typically occurring after the revenue recognition date.
Consequently, the Company initially recognizes revenue using a provisional invoice. Subsequently, the receivables associated with provisionally
priced products are measured at fair value through profit or loss (note 19). Any fluctuations in the value of these receivables are reflected
in the Company's net operating revenue.</p>

Tbk (&#8220;PTVI&#8221;) &#8211;</b></span> PTVI has a contract of work with the government of Indonesia to operate its mining licenses
(&#8220;Contract of Work&#8221;), expiring in December 2025. To extend the period of the mining licenses beyond 2025, PTVI must meet certain
requirements under the Contract of Work, including the commitment to meet a threshold of Indonesian participants in its shareholding structure.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">In November 2023, the Company signed a Heads of Agreement with
PT Mineral Industri Indonesia (&#8220;MIND ID&#8221;) and Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd. (&#8220;SMM&#8221;) regarding the divestment
obligation in PTVI. Therefore, since the year ended December 31, 2023, PTVI assets and liabilities were classified as held for sale.</p>

reduced its interests in PTVI in approximately 10.5%. This divestment was carried out through (i) the issuance of PTVI&#8217;s new shares,
thereby diluting Vale in 2.1%, and (ii) by the direct sale of 8.4% of Vale&#8217;s shares to MIND ID. As a result of the transaction,
MIND ID became PTVI's largest shareholder, holding approximately 34.0% of the issued shares, with the Company and SMM holding approximately
33.9% and 11.5%, respectively. The completion of the transaction fulfills the divestment obligations of the Contract of Work and satisfies
a key condition for PTVI to extend its mining license until 2035, with potential extension beyond this period subject to certain requirements.</p>

(i) discount rate of 7.75% with incremental risk premium of around 1.00% on certain assets, (ii) asset life through to 2065, and (iii)
range of expected nickel prices from US$/t 17,501 to US$/t 21,000.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">In January 2019, a tailings dam (&#8220;Dam I&#8221;) experienced
a failure at the C&#243;rrego do Feij&#227;o mine, in the city of Brumadinho, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The failure released
a flow of tailings debris, destroying some of Vale&#8217;s facilities, affecting local communities and disturbing the environment. The
tailings released have caused an impact of around 315 km in extension, reaching the nearby Paraopeba River. The dam failure in Brumadinho
(&#8220;event&#8221;) resulted in 270 fatalities or presumed fatalities and caused extensive property and environmental damage in the
region.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">As a result of the dam failure, the Company recognized provisions
to meet its assumed obligations, including indemnification to those affected by the event, remediation of the impacted areas and compensation
to the society. Changes in the provisions are shown below:</p>

In March 2024, a court in Amsterdam granted a preliminary injunction freezing the shares in Vale Holdings B.V., a wholly owned subsidiary
incorporated in the Netherlands, and the economic rights attached to those shares, in guarantee of an amount of approximately US$986 (EUR920
million). The freezing orders were issued in anticipation of a legal action to be brought against Vale by certain Brazilian municipalities
and an organization that represents individuals and small businesses that claim to have been affected by the collapse of Samarco&#8217;s
Fund&#227;o dam in 2015.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">In addition, in May and June 2024, three rogatory letters were
fulfilled in Brazil, sent by the Amsterdam court, so that Vale could be notified about the filing of the lawsuit and the seizure orders.
In the records of these rogatory letters, Vale has already anticipated its understanding about the lack of jurisdiction of the Dutch Justice
to analyze the claims of the initial petition.</p>

the Renova Foundation on behalf of Samarco and, therefore, they were deemed tax deductible as incurred, according to the Brazilian tax
regulation. Therefore, due to the change in the mechanism to fund Renova, Vale will no longer be allowed to deduct future payments from
its income tax computation as they are not tax deductible in Brazil. Thus, the deferred income tax asset over the provision in the amount

requires the decommissioning of the assets that Vale operates at the end of their useful lives, therefore, expenses for demobilization

and by environmental agencies at the state level. Among the requirements, the decommissioning plans must consider the physical, chemical
and biological stability of the areas and post-closure actions for the period necessary to verify the effectiveness of the decommissioning.
These obligations are accrued and are subject to critical estimates and assumptions applied to the measurement of costs by the Company.

IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which replaces IAS 1 &#8211; Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS
18 introduces new requirements on presentation within the statement of income statement, requires disclosure of &#8216;management-defined
performance measures&#8217; and includes new requirements for aggregation and disaggregation of financial information based on the identified
&#8220;roles&#8221; of the primary financial statements and the notes. IFRS 18 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning
on or after January 1, 2027, and the Company is currently assessing the potential impacts arising from the standard.</span></p>

based on a third-party valuation report. The valuation considered the discounted cash flow method. The key assumptions considered were
(i) discount rate of 7.75% with incremental risk premium of around 1.00% on certain assets, (ii) asset life through to 2065, and (iii)
range of expected nickel prices from US$/t 17,501 to US$/t 21,000.</p>

For this purpose, rights, options or warrants to acquire a fixed number of the entity&#8217;s own equity instruments for a fixed amount of any currency are equity instruments if the entity offers the rights, options or warrants pro rata to all of its existing owners of the same class of its own non-derivative equity instruments. Also, for those purposes the entity&#8217;s own equity instruments do not include puttable financial instruments that are classified as equity instruments in accordance with paragraphs 16A-16B of IAS 32, instruments that impose on the entity an obligation to deliver to another party a pro rata share of the net assets of the entity only on liquidation and are classified as equity instruments in accordance with paragraphs 16C-16D of IAS 32, or instruments that are contracts for the future receipt or delivery of the entity&#8217;s own equity instruments. As an exception, an instrument that meets the definition of a financial liability is classified as an equity instrument if it has all the features and meets the conditions in paragraphs 16A-16B or paragraphs 16C-16D of IAS 32.

Also, for those purposes the entity\u2019s own equity instruments do not include puttable financial instruments that are classified as equity instruments in accordance with paragraphs 16A-16B of IAS 32, instruments that impose on the entity an obligation to deliver to another party a pro rata share of the net assets of the entity only on liquidation and are classified as equity instruments in accordance with paragraphs 16C-16D of IAS 32, or instruments that are contracts for the future receipt or delivery of the entity\u2019s own equity instruments. As an exception, an instrument that meets the definition of a financial liability is classified as an equity instrument if it has all the features and meets the conditions in paragraphs 16A-16B or paragraphs 16C-16D of IAS 32.

accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (&#x201c;IASB&#x201d;).
All relevant information for the interim financial statements, and only this information, are presented and consistent to those used by
the Company's Management. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal"&gt;In April 2024, the IASB issued
IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which replaces IAS 1 &#x2013; Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS
18 introduces new requirements on presentation within the statement of income statement, requires disclosure of &#x2018;management-defined
performance measures&#x2019; and includes new requirements for aggregation and disaggregation of financial information based on the identified
&#x201c;roles&#x201d; of the primary financial statements and the notes. IFRS 18 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning
on or after January 1, 2027, and the Company is currently assessing the potential impacts arising from the standard.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

its associates and joint ventures are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which each entity operates (&#x201c;functional

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal"&gt;In April 2024, the IASB issued
IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements, which replaces IAS 1 &#x2013; Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS
18 introduces new requirements on presentation within the statement of income statement, requires disclosure of &#x2018;management-defined
performance measures&#x2019; and includes new requirements for aggregation and disaggregation of financial information based on the identified
&#x201c;roles&#x201d; of the primary financial statements and the notes. IFRS 18 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning
on or after January 1, 2027, and the Company is currently assessing the potential impacts arising from the standard.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal"&gt;&#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal"&gt;Certain other new accounting
standards, amendments and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for December 31, 2024, reporting periods or have
not materially impacted these interim financial statements. The Company did not early adopt any of these standards and does not expect
them to have a material impact in future reporting periods.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal"&gt;&#160;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify"&gt;The interim financial statements of the Company and
its associates and joint ventures are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which each entity operates (&#x201c;functional
currency&#x201d;), in the case of the Parent Company it is the Brazilian real (&#x201c;R$&#x201d;). For presentation purposes, these interim
financial statements are presented in United States dollars (&#x201c;US$&#x201d;) as the Company believes that this is how international
investors analyze the financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify"&gt;The main exchange rates used by the Company to translate

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify"&gt;The segments are aligned with products and reflect
the structure used by Management to evaluate the Company&#x2019;s performance. The responsible bodies for making operational decisions,
allocating resources and evaluating performance are the Executive Committee and Board of Directors. Accordingly, the performance of the
operating segments is assessed based on a measure of adjusted EBITDA, among other measures.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify"&gt;In 2024, consistently with the reports analyzed by
the executive committee and Board of Directors, the Company changed its adjusted EBITDA definition to include the &#x201c;EBITDA from
associates and joint ventures&#x201d;, which is a measure of their &#x201c;equity results&#x201d; (note 14) excluding (i) net finance costs;
(ii) depreciation, depletion, and amortization; (iii) taxation and (iv) impairments.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify"&gt;Therefore, the Company&#x2019;s adjusted EBITDA is defined
as operating income or loss, including the EBITDA from interests in associates and joint ventures; and excluding (i) depreciation, depletion,
and amortization; and (ii) impairment and results on disposal of non-current assets, net and other. The comparative information in these
interim financial statements was revised to reflect this change in the adjusted EBITDA definition.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify"&gt;Additionally, as a result of the reorganization of
assets and the governance established for the Energy Transition Metals segment, the &#x201c;Other&#x201d; segment was reorganized for a
better allocation of direct effects on the Iron Ore Solutions and Energy Transition Metals businesses. These effects were allocated to
each segment starting from the six-month period ended June 30, 2024.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: bold 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; color: #007E7A; text-align: justify"&gt;a) Income tax reconciliation&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: bold 9pt Calibri, Helvetica, Sans-Serif; margin: 0; color: navy; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In December 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation
and Development (&#x201c;OECD&#x201d;) released the Pillar Two model rules to reform international corporate taxation. Multinational economic
groups within the scope of these rules are required to calculate their effective tax rate in each country where they operate, the &#x201c;GloBE
effective tax rate&#x201d;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;When the effective GloBE rate of any entity in the economic
group, aggregated by jurisdiction where the group operates, is lower than the minimum rate defined at 15%, the multinational group must
pay a supplementary amount of tax on profit, referring to the difference between its rate effective GloBE and the minimum tax rate.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;From 2024, the Company is subject to OECD Pillar Two model
rules in the Netherlands, Switzerland, United Kingdom, Japan and Luxembourg. However, there was no material impact on Company&#x2019;s
income tax computation due to this matter and it does not expect any further impact on its future financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: bold 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; color: #007E7A; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify"&gt;Income tax expense is recognized based on the estimate
of the weighted average effective tax rate expected for the full year, adjusted for the tax effect of certain items that are recognized
in full on the interim tax calculation. Therefore, the effective tax rate in the interim financial statements may differ from management&#x2019;s
estimate of the effective tax rate for the year. The reconciliation of the taxes calculated according to the nominal tax rates and the
amount of taxes recorded is shown below:&lt;/p&gt;

in the Company's net operating revenue.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; text-align: justify; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; background-color: white"&gt;The Company
is currently discussing with the Brazilian Ministry of Transport the general conditions for optimizing the investment plans of Estrada
de Ferro Caraj&#xe1;s (&#x201c;EFC&#x201d;) and Estrada de Ferro Vit&#xf3;ria a Minas (&#x201c;EFVM&#x201d;) concessions contracts, both
of which are currently being fulfilled by Vale in accordance with the contracts in place.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; text-align: justify; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; background-color: white"&gt;The potential
change in the agreements is still uncertain as it is subject to conclusion of the negotiations and approval by the Company and relevant
authorities. Any changes to the existing obligation will be recorded after the conclusion of the negotiations and based on the final terms
agreed.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; text-align: justify; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0; background-color: white"&gt;Therefore, until
there is any change in the existing concession contracts, the Company will continue to comply with its obligations under the agreements,
which are reflected in the Company&#x2019;s liability recorded in these interim financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;a) Divestment on PT Vale Indonesia
Tbk (&#x201c;PTVI&#x201d;) &#x2013;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt; PTVI has a contract of work with the government of Indonesia to operate its mining licenses
(&#x201c;Contract of Work&#x201d;), expiring in December 2025. To extend the period of the mining licenses beyond 2025, PTVI must meet certain
requirements under the Contract of Work, including the commitment to meet a threshold of Indonesian participants in its shareholding structure.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In November 2023, the Company signed a Heads of Agreement with
PT Mineral Industri Indonesia (&#x201c;MIND ID&#x201d;) and Sumitomo Metal Mining Co., Ltd. (&#x201c;SMM&#x201d;) regarding the divestment
obligation in PTVI. Therefore, since the year ended December 31, 2023, PTVI assets and liabilities were classified as held for sale.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In June 2024, the transaction was concluded, and the Company
reduced its interests in PTVI in approximately 10.5%. This divestment was carried out through (i) the issuance of PTVI&#x2019;s new shares,
thereby diluting Vale in 2.1%, and (ii) by the direct sale of 8.4% of Vale&#x2019;s shares to MIND ID. As a result of the transaction,
MIND ID became PTVI's largest shareholder, holding approximately 34.0% of the issued shares, with the Company and SMM holding approximately
33.9% and 11.5%, respectively. The completion of the transaction fulfills the divestment obligations of the Contract of Work and satisfies
a key condition for PTVI to extend its mining license until 2035, with potential extension beyond this period subject to certain requirements.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;With the transaction, Vale received US$&lt;span id="xdx_905_ecustom--ValeReceived_iI_pn6n6_c20240630__ifrs-full--BusinessCombinationsAxis__custom--PTVIMember_zhSAkWoaPnnj" title="Divestment vale received"&gt;155&lt;/span&gt; for its shares and
lost control over PTVI and so, the Company will no longer consolidate PTVI, which will be accounted for as an associate under the equity
method due to the significant influence it will retain over PTVI.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;As result, the Company recognized a gain of US$&lt;span id="xdx_90C_ecustom--GainOnReclassificationOfCumulativeTranslationAdjustment_pn6n6_c20240401__20240630_zyGZtnFpENz6" title="Gain"&gt;1,059&lt;/span&gt; in the

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;(i) The fair value of the 33.9% retained interest was estimated
based on a third-party valuation report. The valuation considered the discounted cash flow method. The key assumptions considered were
(i) discount rate of 7.75% with incremental risk premium of around 1.00% on certain assets, (ii) asset life through to 2065, and (iii)
range of expected nickel prices from US$/t 17,501 to US$/t 21,000.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #00807A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;b) Strategic partnership in
the Energy Transition Metals business &#x2013; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;In July 2023, the Company signed a binding agreement with Manara Minerals, a
joint venture between Ma&#x2019;aden and Saudi Arabia&#x2019;s Public Investment Fund, under which Manara Minerals would make an equity
investment in Vale Base Metals Limited (&#x201c;VBM&#x201d;), the holding entity for Vale&#x2019;s Energy Transition Metals Business that
was a wholly owned subsidiary. At the same time, Vale and Engine No. 1 entered into another binding agreement for an equity investment
in VBM.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In April 2024, the Company concluded the transaction with
Manara Minerals to sell 10% of the business for US$&lt;span id="xdx_90F_ecustom--AggregatedAmount_iI_pn6n6_c20240430__ifrs-full--BusinessCombinationsAxis__custom--VBMMember_zlnB8exkyNv6" title="Aggregated amount"&gt;2,455&lt;/span&gt;, which was fully contributed to VBM thereby diluting Vale to a &lt;span id="xdx_90D_ecustom--SaleOfEquityInterestRate_iI_pip0_dp_c20240430__ifrs-full--BusinessCombinationsAxis__custom--VBMMember_zo7tklasAEvc" title="Sale of equity interest rate"&gt;90&lt;/span&gt;% equity interest,
retaining control over VBM. As a result, Vale recognized a gain from the sale in the amount of US$&lt;span id="xdx_901_ecustom--GainFromSale_iI_pn6n6_c20240430__ifrs-full--BusinessCombinationsAxis__custom--VBMMember_zCdejQ7CUbQd" title="Gain from the sale"&gt;895&lt;/span&gt;, of which US$&lt;span id="xdx_90D_ecustom--GainOnAttributableToNoncontrollingInterests_iI_pn6n6_c20240430__ifrs-full--BusinessCombinationsAxis__custom--VBMMember_zekDE6Ty04Rd" title="Gain on attributable to noncontrolling interests"&gt;1,514&lt;/span&gt; was attributable
to noncontrolling interests recorded in the equity as "Transactions with noncontrolling interests".&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;Additionally, in April 2024, Vale and Engine No. 1 agreed to
not proceed with the transaction, which was discontinued, without any penalties to both parties.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;c) Acquisition of Alian&#xe7;a
Gera&#xe7;&#xe3;o de Energia S.A. (&#x201c;Alian&#xe7;a Gera&#xe7;&#xe3;o&#x201d;) - &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Alian&#xe7;a Gera&#xe7;&#xe3;o
is a joint venture of Vale, which operates hydroelectric and wind power plants in Brazil, in which the Company holds a 55% shareholding.
The entity&#x2019;s power generation asset portfolio consists of seven hydroelectric power plants in the state of Minas Gerais and three
wind farms in operation in the states of Rio Grande do Norte and Cear&#xe1;, Brazil.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In March 2024, the Company entered into a binding agreement
with Cemig Gera&#xe7;&#xe3;o e Transmiss&#xe3;o S.A. ("Cemig GT") for the acquisition of the entire 45% interest held
for Cemig GT in Alian&#xe7;a Gera&#xe7;&#xe3;o, for US$&lt;span id="xdx_90E_ecustom--AcquisitionInterestAmount_pn6n6_uUSD_c20240301__20240331__ifrs-full--BusinessCombinationsAxis__custom--AliancaGeracaoMember_zcB4FHf0Kve6" title="Acquisition interest amount"&gt;486&lt;/span&gt; (R$&lt;span id="xdx_907_ecustom--AcquisitionInterestAmount_pn6n6_uBRL_c20240301__20240331__ifrs-full--BusinessCombinationsAxis__custom--AliancaGeracaoMember_z1VZE2oP1nol" title="Acquisition interest amount"&gt;2,700&lt;/span&gt; million). The acquisition of the stake in Alian&#xe7;a Gera&#xe7;&#xe3;o
will be the first step towards creating an energy platform and, after the acquisition is completed, Vale will seek potential partners
for this platform.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;This transaction is in line with Vale's strategy of having
an energy matrix based on renewable sources in Brazil and contributes to the Company's commitment to decarbonize operations at competitive
costs.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;Upon closing, which is subject to usual precedent conditions,
including the consent of competent bodies, Vale will hold 100% of the shareholding, obtaining control over Alian&#xe7;a Gera&#xe7;&#xe3;o,
and consolidating its assets, liabilities and results in the Company&#xb4;s financial statements. The transaction's conclusion is expected
for the second half of 2024.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;d) Acquisition of equity interest
in Anglo American Min&#xe9;rio de Ferro Brasil S.A. (&#x201c;Anglo American Brasil&#x201d;) &#x2013; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;In February 2024, the
Company entered into a binding agreement with Anglo American plc for the acquisition of 15% interest in Anglo American Brasil, the company
that currently owns the Minas-Rio complex (&#x201c;Minas-Rio&#x201d;), in Brazil. Under the terms agreed, Vale will contribute with Serra
da Serpentina iron ore resources and a cash contribution of US$157.5, subject to adjustments at the closing date. Additionally, depending
on the future iron ore prices, there may be an adjustment in the transaction price and the fair value adjustments of this mechanism will
be recognized in the Company's income statements accordingly.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;Following completion of the transaction, Vale will receive
its pro-rata share of Minas-Rio production and the Company will also have an option to acquire an additional 15% shareholding in Minas-Rio.
The option will be exercised at fair value, calculated at the time of exercise.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;





&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The closing of the transaction is subject to the usual conditions
precedent and expected to occur in 2025. Upon completion of the transaction, Anglo American Brasil will be an associate of Vale and the
investment will be accounted for under the equity method.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;e) Minera&#xe7;&#xe3;o
Rio do Norte S.A. (&#x201c;MRN&#x201d;) &#x2013; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;In April 2023, Vale signed a binding agreement with Ananke Alumina S.A. to sell
its 40% stake in MRN, which has been impaired in full since 2021. Due to certain remaining commitments of the agreement, the Company recognized
a provision of US$&lt;span id="xdx_904_ecustom--ProvisionForImpairment_pn6n6_c20230401__20230430_zgi0UVFz9dRh" title="Provision for impairment"&gt;93&lt;/span&gt; with the corresponding impact in the income statement for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, as &#x201c;Equity
results and other results in associates and joint ventures&#x201d;. As a result, in November 2023 the Company concluded the transaction
and transferred its shares in MRN to Ananke Alumina S.A.&lt;/p&gt;

do Pec&#xe9;m (&#x201c;CSP&#x201d;) &#x2013; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;In July 2022, the Company and the other shareholders of CSP signed a binding agreement
with ArcelorMittal Brasil S.A. (&#x201c;ArcelorMittal&#x201d;) for the sale of CSP. In March 2023, the Company completed the sale of its
interest in CSP to ArcelorMittal. Under the terms of the agreement, Vale has received US$&lt;span id="xdx_904_ecustom--ValeReceived_iI_pn6n6_c20230331__ifrs-full--BusinessCombinationsAxis__custom--CSPMember_z8wjejbjSjbi" title="Vale received"&gt;1,042&lt;/span&gt; from the buyer and made a cash contribution

In addition,
the Company derecognized its financial liability related to the guarantee granted to CSP, leading to a gain of US$&lt;span id="xdx_905_ecustom--GainOnFinancialLiability_pn6n6_c20240101__20240630__ifrs-full--BusinessCombinationsAxis__custom--CSPMember_zvPbnXB4Fjq5" title="Gain on  financial liability"&gt;37&lt;/span&gt; recognized as &#x201c;Equity

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;(i) The fair value of the 33.9% retained interest was estimated
based on a third-party valuation report. The valuation considered the discounted cash flow method. The key assumptions considered were
(i) discount rate of 7.75% with incremental risk premium of around 1.00% on certain assets, (ii) asset life through to 2065, and (iii)
range of expected nickel prices from US$/t 17,501 to US$/t 21,000.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0"&gt;(i) In order to determine the average interest rate for debt contracts with floating
rates, the Company used the rate applicable as of June 30, 2024.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;(ii) In June 2024, the Company issued bonds of US$1 billion
with a coupon of 6.45% per year, payable semi-annually, and maturing in 2054.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;(iii) The Company entered into derivatives to mitigate the
exposure to cash flow variations of all floating rate debt contracted in Brazil, resulting in an average cost of 3.22% per year in US$.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0"&gt;(i) In order to determine the average interest rate for debt contracts with floating
rates, the Company used the rate applicable as of June 30, 2024.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;(ii) In June 2024, the Company issued bonds of US$1 billion
with a coupon of 6.45% per year, payable semi-annually, and maturing in 2054.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 8pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;(iii) The Company entered into derivatives to mitigate the
exposure to cash flow variations of all floating rate debt contracted in Brazil, resulting in an average cost of 3.22% per year in US$.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In January 2019, a tailings dam (&#x201c;Dam I&#x201d;) experienced
a failure at the C&#xf3;rrego do Feij&#xe3;o mine, in the city of Brumadinho, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The failure released
a flow of tailings debris, destroying some of Vale&#x2019;s facilities, affecting local communities and disturbing the environment. The
tailings released have caused an impact of around 315 km in extension, reaching the nearby Paraopeba River. The dam failure in Brumadinho
(&#x201c;event&#x201d;) resulted in 270 fatalities or presumed fatalities and caused extensive property and environmental damage in the
region.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;As a result of the dam failure, the Company recognized provisions
to meet its assumed obligations, including indemnification to those affected by the event, remediation of the impacted areas and compensation
to the society. Changes in the provisions are shown below:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In addition, the Company has incurred expenses, which have
been recognized straight to the income statement as &#x201c;Other operating revenues (expenses), net&#x201d; (note 5c), in relation to tailings
management, communication, humanitarian assistance, payroll, legal services, water supply, among others. The Company incurred expenses

&lt;p style="border-bottom: #BFBFBF 0.5pt solid; font: 10pt/115% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; background-color: #F2F2F2; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Judicial
Settlement for Integral Reparation&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; background-color: white"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; background-color: white"&gt;The Settlement for Integral Reparation
includes: (i) payment obligations, of which the funds will be used directly by the State of Minas Gerais and Institutions of Justice for
socio-economic and socio-environmental compensation projects; (ii) socioeconomic projects in Brumadinho and other municipalities; and
(iii) compensation of the environmental damage caused by the dam failure. These obligations are projected for an average period of 6 years.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; background-color: white"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; background-color: white"&gt;For the obligations of (i) and (ii),
the agreement specifies an amount for each project and changes in the original budget and deadlines may have an impact in the provision.
In addition, the execution of the environmental recovery actions has no cap limit despite having been estimated in the Settlement for
Integral Reparation due to the Company's legal obligation to fully repair the environmental damage caused by the dam failure. The expenses
related to these obligations are deducted from the income tax calculation, in accordance with the Brazilian tax regulation, which is subject
to periodic inspection by the competent authorities. Therefore, although Vale is monitoring this provision, the amount recorded could
materially change depending on several factors that are not under the Company&#x2019;s control.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/115% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

obligations&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The Company is also working to ensure geotechnical safety of
the remaining structures at the C&#xf3;rrego do Feij&#xe3;o mine, in Brumadinho, and the removal and proper disposal of the tailings
of Dam I, including dredging part of the released material and de-sanding from the channel of the river Paraopeba.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;For the individual indemnification, Vale and the Public Defendants
of the State of Minas Gerais formalized an agreement on April 5, 2019, under which those affected by the Brumadinho&#x2019;s dam failure
may join an individual or family group out-of Court settlement agreements for the indemnification of material, economic and moral damages.
This agreement establishes the basis for a wide range of indemnification payments, which were defined according to the best practices
and case law of Brazilian Courts, following rules and principles of the United Nations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;a) Contingent liabilities&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="border-right: white 0.25pt solid; border-bottom: #BFBFBF 0.5pt solid; font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; background-color: #F2F2F2; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Public
civil actions brought by the State of Minas Gerais and state public prosecutors for damages resulting from the failure of Dam I&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The Company is party to public civil actions brought by the
State of Minas Gerais and justice institutions, claiming compensation for socioeconomic and socio-environmental damages resulting from
the dam failure and seeking a broad range of decisions ordering Vale to execute specific remediation and reparation actions. As a result
of the Judicial Settlement for Integral Reparation, settled in February 2021, the requests for the reparation of socio-environmental and
socioeconomic damages caused by the dam failure were substantially resolved. The individual damages were excluded from the Judicial Settlement
for Integral Reparation, and the Term of Commitment signed with the Public Defendants of the State of Minas Gerais was ratified, whose
parameters are utilized as a basis for the settlement of individual agreements. The phase of sentence liquidation was instituted in the
aforementioned public civil actions for the quantification of the alleged remaining individual damages, with Vale having filed an instrument
appeal against this decision, still pending judgment. The likelihood of a financial loss to the Company is classified as possible and
it is not yet possible to reliably estimate the amount of a potential loss to Vale.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/115% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

civil action and investigation under the Brazilian Anticorruption Law &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In October 2020, the Brazilian Office of the Comptroller General
(&#x201c;CGU&#x201d;) notified the Company about an administrative proceeding prosecution based on the same allegations mentioned above
under the Brazilian Law 12,846/2013 in connection with inspection and monitoring activities related to the Brumadinho dam. In August 2022,
the CGU understood that Vale has failed to present reliable information to the Brazilian National Mining Agency (&#x201c;ANM&#x201d;), as
once a positive stability condition statement (&#x201c;DCE&#x201d;) was issued for the Dam I, where it should be negative in the view of
the CGU. Thus, even recognizing the non-existence of corruption acts or practices, the CGU fined Vale US$&lt;span id="xdx_901_eifrs-full--PropertyManagementExpense_pn6n6_uUSD_c20220801__20220831_zABwS6YNNvT2" title="Fine amount paid"&gt;15&lt;/span&gt; (R$&lt;span id="xdx_90B_eifrs-full--PropertyManagementExpense_pn6n6_uBRL_c20220801__20220831_z0A2tJgD6MU6" title="Fine amount paid"&gt;86&lt;/span&gt; million), which is the
minimum amount established by law, i.e., the CGU recognizes the non-involvement or tolerance of the Company&#x2019;s top management.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In September 2023, CGU denied the request for reconsideration
filed by the Company and, therefore, Vale paid the fine of US$&lt;span id="xdx_90C_eifrs-full--PropertyManagementExpense_pn6n6_uUSD_c20230901__20230930_z6su18PSmjD7" title="Fine amount paid"&gt;15&lt;/span&gt; (R$&lt;span id="xdx_90A_eifrs-full--PropertyManagementExpense_pn6n6_uBRL_c20230901__20230930_zhyV63jIMMD7" title="Fine amount paid"&gt;86&lt;/span&gt; million) in 2023. Vale disagrees with the decision and is adopting
the appropriate legal measures.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;Vale is defending itself against a class action brought before
a Federal Court in New York and filed by holders of securities - American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") - issued by Vale. In
May 2020, the Court issued a decision that denied the Motion to Dismiss presented by the Company. The Discovery phase was concluded in
November 2023. Upon the filing of a pre-motion letter for the Motion for Summary Judgment presented in January 2024 by the parties, the
Court should decide whether the Parties may file their motion for summary judgment.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;On November 24, 2021, a new complaint was filed before the
same Court by eight Plaintiffs, all investment funds, as an &#x201c;opt-out&#x201d; litigation from the class action already pending in
the Eastern District of New York court, asserting virtually the same allegations in the main class action. A decision from the Court is
pending on the Motion to Dismiss presented by the Company.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The likelihood of loss of these proceedings is considered possible.
However, considering the current phase of these lawsuits, it is not yet possible to reliably estimate the amount of a potential loss.
The amount of damages sought in these claims is unspecified.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

proceedings and investigations&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In January 2020, the State Prosecutors of Minas Gerais (&#x201c;MPMG&#x201d;)
filed criminal charges against 16 individuals (including former executive officers of Vale and former employees) for a number of potential
crimes, including homicide, and against Vale S.A. for alleged environmental crimes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify"&gt;In November 2021, the Brazilian Federal Police concluded
the investigation on potential criminal responsibility related with the Brumadinho dam failure and the final report sent to the Federal
Public Prosecutors (&#x201c;MPF&#x201d;).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify"&gt;In January 2023, after the Federal Supreme Court recognized
the competence of the Federal Court to judge the cause, the MPF ratified the complaint authored by the MPMG, previously offered in 2020
to the Justice of Brumadinho, and the rectification was received by the Federal Court. Parallel to the criminal action, the MPF and the
Brazilian Federal Police continue to conduct a separate investigation into the causes of the dam failure in Brumadinho, which may result
in new criminal proceedings. Currently, the process is suspended, due to a judicial decision. It is not possible to estimate when a final
decision will be issued by the Federal Court. The likelihood of a financial loss to the Company is classified as possible and it is not
yet possible to reliably estimate the amount of a potential loss to Vale.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In 2021, public civil actions were filed with Labor Court of
Betim in the State of Minas Gerais, by a workers' unions claiming the compensation for death damages to own and outsourced employees,
who died as a result of the failure of Dam I. Initial decisions sentenced Vale to pay US$&lt;span id="xdx_901_ecustom--CompensationPaidOnDamages_pn3n3_uUSD_c20210101__20211231_zk4CgDci8HS8" title="Compensation paid on damages"&gt;180&lt;/span&gt; thousand (R$&lt;span id="xdx_902_ecustom--CompensationPaidOnDamages_pn6n6_uBRL_c20210101__20211231_znWBZpu0mixl" title="Compensation paid on damages"&gt;1&lt;/span&gt; million) per fatality. In June
2023, the Superior Labor Court ruled on the lawsuit filed by workers&#x2019; union, sustaining the initial decision that condemned Vale.
The Company is defending itself in the lawsuits and considers that the likelihood of loss is possible.&lt;/p&gt;

and Exchange Commission (&#x201c;SEC&#x201d;) and investigations conducted by the CVM&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;On April 28, 2022, the SEC filed a lawsuit against Vale in
the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York, alleging that certain Vale&#x2019;s disclosures related to dam safety management
prior to the dam failure in Brumadinho violated U.S. securities laws. On March 28, 2023, Vale reached a settlement with the SEC to fully
resolve this litigation. Under the agreement, without admitting or denying the settled claims, Vale paid US$&lt;span id="xdx_904_eifrs-full--GainsLossesOnLitigationSettlements_pn6n6_uUSD_c20230101__20231231_zsUHkzr7Jv1l" title="Litigation settlement paid"&gt;56&lt;/span&gt; during the year ended December
31, 2023. The settlement resolves the litigation without judgment on the claims based upon intentional or reckless fraud. In April 2023,
the settlement was approved and granted by the Court.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;CVM is also conducting investigations relating to Vale's disclosure
of relevant information to shareholders, investors and the market in general, especially regarding the conditions and management of Vale's
dams. The likelihood of loss of this proceeding is classified as possible and it is not yet possible to reliably estimate the amount of
a potential loss to the Company.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;





&lt;p style="border-bottom: #BFBFBF 0.5pt solid; font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; background-color: #F2F2F2; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Arbitration

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In Brazil, Vale is named as a defendant in (i) one arbitration
filed by 385 minority shareholders, (ii) two arbitrations filed by a class association allegedly representing all Vale&#x2019;s noncontrolling
shareholders, and (iii) three arbitrations filed by foreign investment funds.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In the six proceedings, the claimants argue that Vale was aware
of the risks associated with the dam and failed to disclose it to its shareholders. Based on such argument, they claim compensation for
losses caused by the decrease in share price.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The expectation of loss is classified as possible for the six
procedures and, considering the initial phase, it is not possible at this time to reliably estimate the amount of a possible loss.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In one of the proceedings filed by foreign funds, &lt;span id="xdx_903_eifrs-full--DescriptionOfNatureOfInterestInFunds_c20240101__20240630_z6Ha74VttYxh" title="Description of alleged losses"&gt;the Claimants
initially estimated the amount of the alleged losses would be approximately US$324 (R$1,800 million). In another proceeding filed by foreign
funds, the Claimants initially estimated the amount of the alleged losses would be approximately US$702 (R$3,900 million). In the procedure
presented by minority shareholders, the applicants estimated the alleged losses at approximately US$540 (R$3,000 million), which could
be increased later, as alleged by the applicants.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The Company disagrees with the ongoing proceedings and understands
that, in this case and at the current stage of the proceedings, the probability of loss in the amount claimed by the foreign funds is
remote.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

brought by individuals, business entities, investors, associations, unions, legislative bodies, non-governmental organizations and other

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In November 2015, the Fund&#xe3;o tailings dam owned by Samarco
Minera&#xe7;&#xe3;o S.A. (&#x201c;Samarco&#x201d;) experienced a failure, flooding certain communities and impacting communities and
the environment along the Doce River. The dam failure resulted in 19 fatalities and caused property and environmental damage to the affected
areas. Samarco is a joint venture equally owned by Vale S.A. and BHP Billiton Brasil Ltda. (&#x2018;&#x2018;BHPB&#x2019;&#x2019;).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In 2016, Vale, Samarco and BHPB, entered into a Framework Agreement
with the Federal Government of Brazil, the states of Esp&#xed;rito Santo and Minas Gerais and certain other public authorities to establish
the Renova Foundation that is developing and executing environmental and socio-economic programs to remediate and provide compensation
for damage caused by the Samarco dam failure.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 9pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In June 2018, Samarco, Vale and BHPB entered into a comprehensive
agreement with the offices of the federal and state (Minas Gerais and Esp&#xed;rito Santo) prosecutors, public defenders and attorney
general, among other parties (&#x201c;TacGov Agreement&#x201d;), improving the governance mechanism of Renova Foundation and establishing,
among other things, a process for potential revisions to the remediation programs under the Framework Agreement.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;These agreements aim to remediate and provide compensation
for damage caused, of which Samarco has primary responsibility for funding the obligations, and Vale and BHPB have secondary funding obligations
under the Framework Agreement in proportion to their 50 per cent shareholding in Samarco.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;Vale is a defendant in several legal proceedings brought by
governmental authorities and civil associations claiming recover socioenvironmental and socioeconomic damages and a number of specific
remediation measures as a result of the Samarco&#x2019;s Fund&#xe3;o dam failure, including a claim brought by the Federal Public Prosecution
Office in 2016 seeking several measures that amount to US$&lt;span id="xdx_903_eifrs-full--AdjustmentsForInterestExpense_pn9n9_uUSD_c20240101__20240630_z8BBbf9Ltxte" title="Interest and monetary adjustments"&gt;28&lt;/span&gt; billion (R$&lt;span id="xdx_902_eifrs-full--AdjustmentsForInterestExpense_pn9n9_uBRL_c20240101__20240630_zs0lFtLusuPg" title="Interest and monetary adjustments"&gt;155&lt;/span&gt; billion), subject to interest and monetary adjustments, which
the effect for Vale would be 50% of this amount.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;This Public Civil Action was suspended as a result of the ratification
of TacGov agreement. However, as pre-requisites established in the TacGov Agreement, for renegotiation of the Framework Agreement were
not implemented during the established period, in 2020, the Brazilian Federal and State prosecutors and public defenders filed a request
for the immediate resumption of this claim.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;Therefore, Vale, Samarco, BHPB and Federal and State prosecutors
have been engaging in negotiations to seek a definitive settlement of the obligations under the Framework Agreement and the US$&lt;span id="xdx_90C_eifrs-full--AdjustmentsForInterestExpense_pn9n9_uUSD_c20240101__20240630_z4Oo29euYWRa" title="Interest and monetary adjustments"&gt;28&lt;/span&gt; billion

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The goal in signing a potential settlement agreement is to
provide a stable framework for the execution of reparation and compensation measures related to the Samarco dam rupture, it also aims
to settle all lawsuits brought by the public authorities involved.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

decision requesting cash deposits and increase on the territories affected by the collapse&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In March 2023, as part of a proceeding related to a potential
increase on the number of territories recognized as affected by the collapse of Samarco&#x2019;s Fund&#xe3;o dam and covered by the TTAC,
a Federal Court issued a decision ordering Vale and BHP Brasil to make judicial deposits in the total amount of US$&lt;span id="xdx_90D_ecustom--JudicialDeposits_iI_pn8n9_uUSD_c20230331_zbyRXsPBr6N3" title="Judicial deposits"&gt;1.9&lt;/span&gt; billion (R$&lt;span id="xdx_901_ecustom--JudicialDeposits_iI_pn8n9_uBRL_c20230331_zmKjhVl6GC4c" title="Judicial deposits"&gt;10.3&lt;/span&gt;
billion), in ten installments, which the effect for Vale would be 50% of this amount. On April 28, 2023, the Federal Court granted the
companies' request for a suspensive effect on the decision that determined this deposit.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In August 2023, the judge issued a judicial decision recognizing
the existence of new territories impacted by the collapse of the Fund&#xe3;o dam. The Company is adopting the appropriate legal measures
and believes its provisions are sufficient to comply with the TTAC obligations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="border-bottom: #BFBFBF 0.5pt solid; font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; background-color: #F2F2F2; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Judicial
decision on collective moral damages&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In January 2024, the 4th Federal Lower Civil Court of Belo
Horizonte issued a judicial decision requiring the payment of collective moral damages in the amount of US$&lt;span id="xdx_90A_ecustom--PaymentOfCollectiveMoralDamages_pn8n9_uUSD_c20240102__20240131_z4Y9vmQZ1Db" title="Payment of collective moral damages"&gt;8.6&lt;/span&gt; billion (R$&lt;span id="xdx_903_ecustom--PaymentOfCollectiveMoralDamages_pn8n9_uBRL_c20240102__20240131_zSPeAB6mv3oa" title="Payment of collective moral damages"&gt;47.6&lt;/span&gt; billion)
(the effect for Vale would be 50% of this amount), subject to monetary adjustments from the date of the decision and interests from November
2015.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In May 2024, the Court partially accepted Vale&#x2019;s appeal,
rectifying the value of the conviction to US$&lt;span id="xdx_90B_ecustom--ConvictionValueForMoralDamages_pn8n9_uUSD_c20240501__20240531_z46QRTFTD2ki" title="Conviction value for moral damages"&gt;8.4&lt;/span&gt; billion (R$&lt;span id="xdx_903_ecustom--ConvictionValueForMoralDamages_pn8n9_uBRL_c20240501__20240531_zOSExEI44OR9" title="Conviction value for moral damages"&gt;46.7&lt;/span&gt; billion) (the effect for Vale would be 50% of this amount), subject
to monetary adjustments. Vale appealed for a review of the merits of the decision. In May 2024, a provisional sentence compliance was
instituted by the Federal Union and the 4th Federal Court rejected the Union&#x2019;s request. Subsequently, against the decision that
rejected the provisional sentence compliance, the Union appealed, the judgment of which is pending.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;






&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The Company is defending itself and believes the likelihood
of loss in relation of the merits of these proceedings is possible, however, the likelihood of loss in the alleged amount is assessed
as remote.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;London Contribution claim -&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
As a result of the rupture of Samarco&#x2019;s Fund&#xe3;o dam failure, BHP Group Ltd (&#x201c;BHP&#x201d;) was named as defendant in group
action claims for damages filed in the courts of England and Wales for various plaintiffs, between individuals, companies and municipalities
from Brazil that were supposedly affected by the Samarco dam failure (the &#x201c;UK Claim&#x201d;).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In December 2022, BHP filed a &#x201c;Contribution Claim&#x201d;
against Vale, requesting the Company to share the indemnification established in the UK Claim. Both the Contribution Claim and the UK
Claim are still ongoing, and there has not been any decision on their merits.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The proceedings against BHP are still progressing in London
and the first phase of the trial is expected to begin of the last quarter of 2024. It is not yet possible to reliably estimate the amount
of a potential loss to Vale.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Netherlands proceeding -&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
In March 2024, a court in Amsterdam granted a preliminary injunction freezing the shares in Vale Holdings B.V., a wholly owned subsidiary
incorporated in the Netherlands, and the economic rights attached to those shares, in guarantee of an amount of approximately US$986 (EUR920
million). The freezing orders were issued in anticipation of a legal action to be brought against Vale by certain Brazilian municipalities
and an organization that represents individuals and small businesses that claim to have been affected by the collapse of Samarco&#x2019;s
Fund&#xe3;o dam in 2015.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In addition, in May and June 2024, three rogatory letters were
fulfilled in Brazil, sent by the Amsterdam court, so that Vale could be notified about the filing of the lawsuit and the seizure orders.
In the records of these rogatory letters, Vale has already anticipated its understanding about the lack of jurisdiction of the Dutch Justice
to analyze the claims of the initial petition.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The first court event for Vale in the Dutch court is expected
to take place in the first quarter of 2025. The Company is adopting the appropriate legal measures and believes its provisions are sufficient
to comply with its obligations.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Agreement on claims in the
United Kingdom and the Netherlands - &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;In July 2024 (subsequent event), Vale and BHP have entered into a confidential agreement
without any admission of liability pursuant to Vale and BHP will share equally any potential payment obligations arising from the UK
and Dutch Claims, described above. As part of the agreement, the contribution claim brought by BHP against Vale in connection with the
UK Claims will be withdrawn.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In September 2019, the court has dismissed part of the criminal
charges but accepted charges of environmental crimes against Vale and one of its employees relating to an alleged omission in the provision
of relevant information of environmental interest for public authorities. The Company cannot estimate when a final decision on the case
will be issued. The likelihood of a financial loss to the Company is classified as possible and it is not yet possible to reliably estimate
the amount of a potential loss to Vale.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

proceeding&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In September 2018, the federal tax authorities filed a request
before a federal court in Belo Horizonte for an order to Vale&#x2019;s assets to secure the payment of Samarco&#x2019;s federal tax and
social security debts, in the amount of approximately US$&lt;span id="xdx_903_ecustom--FederalTaxAndSocialSecurityDebts_pn9n9_uUSD_c20180901__20180930_zErjj76rZhP8" title="Federal tax and social security debts"&gt;2&lt;/span&gt;.0 billion (R$&lt;span id="xdx_90E_ecustom--FederalTaxAndSocialSecurityDebts_pn9n9_uBRL_c20180901__20180930_zUBwT4Zl9hKj" title="Federal tax and social security debts"&gt;11&lt;/span&gt; billion) (as of June 2018). In May 2019, a favorable decision
was issued dismissing the claim without prejudice, due to lack of procedural interest. The General Attorney for the National Treasury
(Procuradoria Geral da Fazenda Nacional - &#x201c;PGFN&#x201d;) filed an appeal to the local court, and a decision is pending. The likelihood
of a financial loss to the Company is classified as possible and it is not yet possible to reliably estimate the amount of a potential
loss to Vale.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify"&gt;Vale is defendant in several private actions, before
different state and federal courts in the states of Minas Gerais and Esp&#xed;rito Santo, brought by individuals and other entities
seeking remediation and compensation for environmental, property and personal damages resulting from the Samarco dam failure. The potential
loss was US$&lt;span id="xdx_90E_ecustom--PotentialLossForSamarcoDamFailure_pn6n6_uUSD_c20240101__20240630_zcnozGC7qywa" title="Potential loss for samarco dam failure"&gt;6&lt;/span&gt; as of June 30, 2024 (2023: US$&lt;span id="xdx_90A_ecustom--PotentialLossForSamarcoDamFailure_pn6n6_uUSD_c20230101__20230630_zHXhbJIMzl4h" title="Potential loss"&gt;11&lt;/span&gt;) and the likelihood of a potential loss to the Company is classified as possible.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify; color: teal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;c) Judicial reorganization of Samarco&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In April 2021, Samarco filed for Judicial Reorganization (&#x201c;JR&#x201d;)
with the Courts of Minas Gerais to renegotiate its debt, which was held by bondholders abroad. The purpose of JR is to restructure Samarco&#x2019;s
debts and establish an independent and sustainable financial position, allowing Samarco to keep working to resume its operations safely
and to fulfill its obligations related to the Renova Foundation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In May 2023, Vale S.A. entered into a binding agreement jointly
with BHPB, Samarco and certain creditors which hold together more than 50% of Samarco's debt, setting the parameters of Samarco&#x2019;s
debt restructuring to be implemented through a consensual restructuring plan, which was approved by the creditors, submitted to the JR
Court in July 2023, and confirmed by the judge in September 2023.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In December 2023, Samarco&#x2019;s existing US$&lt;span id="xdx_90C_eifrs-full--DebtInstrumentsHeld_iI_pn8n9_uUSD_c20231231_zxUJwxHTGnL" title="Financial debt held by creditors"&gt;4.8&lt;/span&gt; billion of
financial debt held by creditors was exchanged for approximately US$&lt;span id="xdx_901_ecustom--LongtermUnsecuredDebt_iI_pn8n9_uUSD_c20231231_zLb9zO04R8s9" title="Long-term unsecured debt"&gt;3.9&lt;/span&gt; billion of long-term unsecured debt, bearing interest from 2023
to 2031.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;After the execution of the plan, Samarco has a lean capital
structure, in line with its operational ramp-up and cash flow generation. The plan considers the fund of the reparation and compensation
programs capped at US$&lt;span id="xdx_900_ecustom--FundOfReparationAndCompensationPrograms_iI_pn9n9_uUSD_c20240630_zpELOrFzGEKd" title="Fund of reparation and compensation programs"&gt;1&lt;/span&gt; billion from 2024 to 2030 and additional contributions after that period due to the Samarco&#x2019;s projected
cash flows generation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;d) Tax consequences for Vale arising from
the consensual restructuring plan of Samarco&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The plan provides that additional cash demands from Renova
Foundation will be made through capital contributions to Samarco. The contributions have been carried out directly by Vale and BHPB to
the Renova Foundation on behalf of Samarco and, therefore, they were deemed tax deductible as incurred, according to the Brazilian tax
regulation. Therefore, due to the change in the mechanism to fund Renova, Vale will no longer be allowed to deduct future payments from
its income tax computation as they are not tax deductible in Brazil. Thus, the deferred income tax asset over the provision in the amount
of US$&lt;span id="xdx_90D_eifrs-full--NetDeferredTaxAssets_iI_pn6n6_uUSD_c20240630_z3lv2t3jHry9" title="Deferred income tax asset over the provision"&gt;1,078&lt;/span&gt; was reversed in full, with the corresponding impact in the income statement for the six-month period ended June 30, 2023,
recorded as &#x201c;Income taxes&#x201d; (note 7a).&lt;/p&gt;

of dam structures and asset retirement obligations&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The Company is subject to local laws and regulations, that
requires the decommissioning of the assets that Vale operates at the end of their useful lives, therefore, expenses for demobilization
occur predominantly after the end of operational activities. These obligations are regulated in Brazil by the ANM at the federal level
and by environmental agencies at the state level. Among the requirements, the decommissioning plans must consider the physical, chemical
and biological stability of the areas and post-closure actions for the period necessary to verify the effectiveness of the decommissioning.
These obligations are accrued and are subject to critical estimates and assumptions applied to the measurement of costs by the Company.
Depending on the geotechnical characteristics of the structures, the Company is required to de-characterize the structures, as shown in
item a) below.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 11pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Laws and regulations related to dam safety&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In December 2023, the government of Minas Gerais published
decree No. 48,747, which regulates the measurement and execution of environmental guarantees individually for each dam, based on the
reservoir area, classification and purpose of the dam, and estimated de-characterization costs and should be kept throughout the useful
life of the dam, from its startup phase until the de-characterization and socio-environmental recovery. The guarantee may be a cash deposit,
bank deposit certificate, bank guarantee or insurance.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;






&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;In June 2024, the government of Minas Gerais published decree
No. 48,848, which amended Decree No. 48.747 and included property mortgage and property fiduciary lien as new modalities for environmental
guarantees. The guarantees shall be presented up to 3 years, with half of the amount in 2024 and the remaining amount split between 2025
and 2026.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;The value of the guarantees is estimated at US$&lt;span id="xdx_902_ecustom--FinancialGuaranteesAndInsurance_pn6n6_uUSD_c20240101__20240630_z4sCaGcfmCpi" title="Financial guarantees and insurance"&gt;324&lt;/span&gt; (R$&lt;span id="xdx_907_ecustom--FinancialGuaranteesAndInsurance_pn8n9_uBRL_c20240101__20240630_zzQ7VcqsESs7" title="Financial guarantees and insurance"&gt;1.8&lt;/span&gt; billion),
for which the Company intends to meet by providing property mortgage and property fiduciary lien, financial guarantees or insurance. Vale
expects that the financial costs to be incurred will be immaterial.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 11pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: bold 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; color: #00807A; text-align: justify"&gt;a) De-characterization of upstream geotechnical
structures&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;As a result of the Brumadinho dam failure (note 23) and, in
compliance with laws and regulations, the Company has decided to speed up the plan to &#x201c;de-characterize&#x201d; of all its dams and
dikes, located in Brazil. The Company also operates tailings dams in Canada, including upstream compacted dams. However, the Company decided
that these dams will be decommissioned using other methods, thus, the provision to carry out the decommissioning of dams in Canada is
recognized as &#x201c;Obligations for decommissioning assets and environmental obligations&#x201d;, as presented in item (b) below.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;These structures are in different stages of maturity, some
of them still in the conceptual engineering phase, for which the estimate of expenditures includes in its methodology a high degree of
uncertainty in the definition of the total cost of the project in accordance with best market practices.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"&gt;Changes in the provisions are as follows:&lt;/p&gt;

by Valepar (merged by Vale) in 2011 seeking the right to exclude the amount of dividends received in the form of interest on capital (&#x201c;JCP&#x201d;)
from the PIS and COFINS tax base. This proceeding is fully guaranteed by a judicial deposit. This judicial decision determined the conversion
of the judicial deposit to the Government, resulting in the reclassification of the amount to payable taxes and the judicial deposit to
current assets in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023. In April 2024, the proceeding was settled with the judicial
deposit.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify"&gt;For the long-term incentive programs, the Company compensation
plans include Matching Program and Performance Share Unit program (&#x201c;PSU&#x201d;), with three-year-vesting cycles, respectively,
with the aim of encouraging employee&#x2019;s retention and encouraging their performance. The fair value of the programs is recognized
on a straight-line basis over the three-year required service period, net of estimated losses.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify"&gt;The fair value of the Matching program was estimated
using the Company's share price and ADR and the number of shares granted on the grant date. The information by valid programs during
