<p style="font: 10pt/120% Georgia, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify; color: #494949">We have reviewed the accompanying
condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position of Vale S.A. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June
30, 2025, and the related condensed consolidated interim income statement and statement of comprehensive income for the three-month and
six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024 and the condensed consolidated interim statements of changes in equity and cash
flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, 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: 10pt/120% Georgia, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify; color: #494949">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, 2024, 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 19, 2025, we expressed
an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed
consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2024, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated
statement of financial position from which it has been derived.</p>

Board (United States) (PCAOB) and 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>

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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">The Company is subject to OECD Pillar
Two model rules in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Indonesia, Japan, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Netherlands, Singapore, Switzerland and United Kingdom.
Therefore, the impacts from Pilar Two are already being considered on the calculation of income tax for these jurisdictions.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">However, the Company does not expect
material impacts on the calculation of income tax or on the financial statements for the current and future periods, from the application of the Pillar Two rules currently in effect.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">The Company applied the relief from
the requirement to recognize and disclose deferred taxes arising from enacted or substantively enacted tax law that implements the Pillar
Two model rule, according to IAS 12 &#8211; Income taxes.</p>

the Company 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 satisfied a key condition for PTVI to extend its mining license until
2035, with potential extension beyond this period subject to certain requirements.</span></p>

<p style="font: 10pt/12pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">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. In addition, the Company has incurred expenses, which have been recognized straight
to the income statement, in relation to tailings management, communication services, humanitarian assistance, payroll, legal services,
water supply, among others.</p>

entered into a Judicial Settlement for Integral Reparation (&#8220;Global Settlement&#8221;), which was under negotiations since 2019,
with the State of Minas Gerais, the Public Defender of the State of Minas Gerais and the Federal and the State of Minas Gerais Public
Prosecutors Offices, to repair the environmental and social damage resulting from the Dam I rupture. As a result of the Global Settlement,
the requests for the reparation of socioenvironmental and socioeconomic damages caused by the dam failure were substantially resolved.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">The Global Settlement includes: (i)
payment obligations, of which the funds will be used directly by the State of Minas Gerais and Institutions of Justice for socioeconomic
and socioenvironmental 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 5 years.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">In addition, the Global Settlement
addresses the diffuse and collective socioeconomic damages resulting from the disaster, with the exception of supervening damages, individual
damages and homogeneous individual damages of a divisible nature, in accordance with the claims of the lawsuits not extinguished by the
Global Settlement.</p>

and regulations, that requires the decommissioning of the assets that Vale operates at the end of their useful lives, therefore, expenses
related to the demobilization occur after the end of operational activities and throughout the life of operations through progressive
closures. These obligations are regulated in Brazil at the Federal and State levels by ANM (National Mining Agency) and Environmental
Agencies, respectively. Among the requirements, the closure 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.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">The Company is subject to OECD Pillar
Two model rules in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Indonesia, Japan, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Netherlands, Singapore, Switzerland and United Kingdom.
Therefore, the impacts from Pilar Two are already being considered on the calculation of income tax for these jurisdictions.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">However, the Company does not expect
material impacts on the calculation of income tax or on the financial statements for the current and future periods, from the application of the Pillar Two rules currently in effect.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">The Company applied the relief from
the requirement to recognize and disclose deferred taxes arising from enacted or substantively enacted tax law that implements the Pillar
Two model rule, according to IAS 12 &#8211; Income taxes.</p>






<p style="font: 11pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; color: #007E7A"><b>a) Income tax reconciliation</b></p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">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>

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 satisfied a key condition for PTVI to extend its mining license until

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.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/12pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">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. In addition, the Company has incurred expenses, which have been recognized straight
to the income statement, in relation to tailings management, communication services, humanitarian assistance, payroll, legal services,
water supply, among others.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">On February 4, 2021, the Company
entered into a Judicial Settlement for Integral Reparation (&#8220;Global Settlement&#8221;), which was under negotiations since 2019,
with the State of Minas Gerais, the Public Defender of the State of Minas Gerais and the Federal and the State of Minas Gerais Public
Prosecutors Offices, to repair the environmental and social damage resulting from the Dam I rupture. As a result of the Global Settlement,
the requests for the reparation of socioenvironmental and socioeconomic damages caused by the dam failure were substantially resolved.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">The Global Settlement includes: (i)
payment obligations, of which the funds will be used directly by the State of Minas Gerais and Institutions of Justice for socioeconomic
and socioenvironmental 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 5 years.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">In addition, the Global Settlement
addresses the diffuse and collective socioeconomic damages resulting from the disaster, with the exception of supervening damages, individual
damages and homogeneous individual damages of a divisible nature, in accordance with the claims of the lawsuits not extinguished by the
Global Settlement.</p>




<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">For the measures described in items
(i) and (ii), the amounts are specified in the Global Settlement. For the execution of the environmental recovery, actions has no cap
limit, despite having been estimated in the Global Settlement due to the Company's legal obligation to fully repair the environmental
damage caused by the dam failure. 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>

the amount of the alleged losses would be approximately US$715 (R$3,900 million), subject to interest and monetary adjustments. In the
procedure presented by minority shareholders, the applicants estimated the alleged losses at approximately US$550 (R$3,000 million), subject

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 below.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/12pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify"><span style="color: #007E7A"><b>London claim -</b></span>
<span style="color: #242424">As a result of the rupture of Samarco&#8217;s Fund&#227;o dam failure, BHP Group Ltd (&#8220;BHP&#8221;)
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 &#8220;UK Claim&#8221;). </span></p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">The proceedings against BHP are still
progressing in London and the oral testimony phase of the first stage of the trial, in which the liability issues of the BHP group companies
are dealt with, took place between October 2024 and March 2025. If BHP's liability is confirmed, a second stage trial will be held to
discuss and determine the amount of damages, scheduled to begin in October 2026 and is expected to last 22 weeks.</p>

of an amount of approximately US$1,124 (EUR955 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. With the adherence of three municipalities (Iapu, Ponte Nova
and Rio Casca) to the Definitive Settlement, their lawsuit was discontinued, with the attachment being reduced to US$877 (EUR745.4 million).

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">In April 2021, Samarco filed for
Judicial Reorganization (&#8220;JR&#8221;) with the Courts of Minas Gerais to renegotiate its debt, which was held by bondholders abroad.
The purpose of JR is to restructure Samarco&#8217;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.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">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&#8217;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.</p>

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">In December 2023, Samarco&#8217;s

<p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424">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

related to the demobilization occur after the end of operational activities and throughout the life of operations through progressive
closures. These obligations are regulated in Brazil at the Federal and State levels by ANM (National Mining Agency) and Environmental
Agencies, respectively. Among the requirements, the closure 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.</p>

<p style="font: 8pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify">(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.</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.

the United States of America ("USA") signed an executive order imposing tariffs on products from several countries. The program
establishes individualized import tariffs per country, based on a minimum tariff of 10%. The effective date and tariff amounts vary from
country to country.&lt;/p&gt;

of the USA announced the application of 50% tariffs on imports from Brazil, effective August 1, 2025. The Company's sales to USA are not

the Company is constantly monitoring the situation and assessing potential impacts.&lt;/p&gt;

entity operates (&#x201c;functional currency&#x201d;), in the case of the Parent Company it is the Brazilian real (&#x201c;R$&#x201d;). For

believes that this is how international investors analyze the financial statements.&lt;/p&gt;

risk factors related to its operations and its customer portfolio and supply chain profile.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;In February 2025, the President of
the United States of America ("USA") signed an executive order imposing tariffs on products from several countries. The program
establishes individualized import tariffs per country, based on a minimum tariff of 10%. The effective date and tariff amounts vary from
country to country.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/112% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;In July 2025 (subsequent event), the President
of the USA announced the application of 50% tariffs on imports from Brazil, effective August 1, 2025. The Company's sales to USA are not
relevant. The Company is monitoring developments and, until this date, Vale does not expect any significant effects on its operations
or cash flows.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 11pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The Company monitors international
geopolitical developments and is subject to external risk factors related to its operations and the profile of its client portfolio and
supply chains.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;At this date, no significant direct
effects of the conflict on the Company's operations or on the fair value of its assets and liabilities have been identified. However,
the Company is constantly monitoring the situation and assessing potential impacts.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The Company is subject to external
risk factors related to its operations and its customer portfolio and supply chain profile.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;In February 2025, the President of
the United States of America ("USA") signed an executive order imposing tariffs on products from several countries. The program
establishes individualized import tariffs per country, based on a minimum tariff of 10%. The effective date and tariff amounts vary from
country to country.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/112% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;In July 2025 (subsequent event), the President
of the USA announced the application of 50% tariffs on imports from Brazil, effective August 1, 2025. The Company's sales to USA are not
relevant. The Company is monitoring developments and, until this date, Vale does not expect any significant effects on its operations
or cash flows.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 11pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&#160;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;At this date, no significant direct

the Company is constantly monitoring the situation and assessing potential impacts.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The Company is subject to OECD Pillar
Two model rules in Australia, Brazil, Canada, Indonesia, Japan, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Netherlands, Singapore, Switzerland and United Kingdom.
Therefore, the impacts from Pilar Two are already being considered on the calculation of income tax for these jurisdictions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;However, the Company does not expect
material impacts on the calculation of income tax or on the financial statements for the current and future periods, from the application of the Pillar Two rules currently in effect.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The Company applied the relief from
the requirement to recognize and disclose deferred taxes arising from enacted or substantively enacted tax law that implements the Pillar
Two model rule, according to IAS 12 &#x2013; Income taxes.&lt;/p&gt;






&lt;p style="font: 11pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;a) Income tax reconciliation&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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;

commodities sales -&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: #242424"&gt;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.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

as Suppliers and contractors in the Company's statement of financial position represent the outstanding balance of invoices with suppliers
for purchases of goods and services, being the average due date usually approximately 60 days.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The Company enters into supplier
finance arrangements ("Arrangements") as part of the working capital strategy used in the Company's usual operating cycle, being
the payment term extension limited to a short-term period. The Company is also party in agreements structured so that certain suppliers
can advance their receivables with Vale due to purchases of materials and services, without any type of change in value or payment terms
for the Company. These supplier finance arrangements continue to be presented as suppliers in the Company's statement of financial position,
as the terms and conditions of the original liabilities were not substantially modified. The carrying amount related to these transactions
is shown below:&lt;/p&gt;

on Energy Assets &#x2013; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #242424"&gt;In March 2025, the Company signed an agreement with Global Infrastructure
Partners (&#x201c;GIP&#x201d;) for the sale of 70% of its stake in Alian&#xe7;a Gera&#xe7;&#xe3;o de Energia S.A. ("Alian&#xe7;a
Energia"), including the operations of Sol do Cerrado solar plant and Risoleta Neves hydroelectric plant, which are assets of the
Company and will be transferred to Alian&#xe7;a Energia upon closing of the transaction, for the amount of US$837.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/12pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The transaction amount for Vale comprises
an estimated cash inflow of US$&lt;span id="xdx_900_ecustom--EstimatedCashInflow_iI_pn9n9_c20250630_zv6Eq0DZ5EUd" title="Estimated cash inflow"&gt;1&lt;/span&gt; billion, net of an estimated reduction of US$&lt;span id="xdx_90F_ecustom--NetOfEstimatedReduction_iI_pn8n9_c20250630__ifrs-full--BusinessCombinationsAxis__custom--AliancaEnergiaMember_zLhChDoCfgFg" title="Net of estimated reduction"&gt;0.2&lt;/span&gt; billion in the remaining investment in Alian&#xe7;a
Energia due to a loan that will be assumed by the investee in the context of the transaction.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/12pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;Alian&#xe7;a Energia operates power
generation assets in Brazil, with a portfolio of six hydroelectric plants in the state of Minas Gerais and three operational wind farms
in the states of Rio Grande do Norte and Cear&#xe1; that, together with Sol do Cerrado solar plant and Risoleta Neves hydroelectric
plant, both located in Minas Gerais, will henceforth be referred to as the "Energy Assets".&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/12pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;Upon closing, Vale will have energy
supply contracts for own use and will lose control over Alian&#xe7;a Energia, being the remaining interest treated as an associate and
accounted at the equity method. Completion of the transaction is expected for 2025 and is subject to customary precedent conditions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;As a result of the agreement with
GIP, in March 2025, the assets and liabilities associated with the Energy Assets were classified as held for sale and the Company recognized
an impairment loss in the amount of US$&lt;span id="xdx_904_eifrs-full--ImpairmentLoss_pn6n6_uUSD_c20250301__20250331__ifrs-full--JointVenturesAxis__custom--GIPMember_zFwwthKMTgSc" title="Impairment loss"&gt;117&lt;/span&gt; in the income statement as "Impairment and gains (losses) on disposal of non-current assets,

Divestment on PT Vale Indonesia Tbk (&#x201c;PTVI&#x201d;) &#x2013; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 10pt; color: #242424"&gt;In June 2024,
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 satisfied a key condition for PTVI to extend its mining license until
2035, with potential extension beyond this period subject to certain requirements.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;With the transaction, Vale received
US$155 for its shares and lost control over PTVI, which was accounted for as an associate under the equity method due to the significant
influence retained by Vale over PTVI.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;As result, in June 2024, the Company
recognized a gain of US$&lt;span id="xdx_907_ecustom--ReversalOfImpairmentAndGainsLossesOnDisposalOfNoncurrentAssetsNet_iI_pn6n6_c20240630__ifrs-full--BusinessCombinationsAxis__custom--PTVIMember_zea2SwZA9xV1" title="Reversal of impairment and gains (losses) on disposal of non-current assets, net"&gt;1,059&lt;/span&gt; in the income statement as "Other operating expenses, net".

&lt;p style="font: 8pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; 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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The Company's main financial covenants
require it to maintain certain ratios, such as the leverage ratio and interest coverage ratio. Vale is also subject to non-financial covenants
normally practiced in the market, such as compliance with certain governance and environmental standards, among others.&lt;/p&gt;

with these covenants at the end of each annual reporting period and there are no indications that Vale would have difficulties complying
with them on the next measurement date, which will be as of December 31, 2025.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 7pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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, 2025.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 7pt/112% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;(ii) 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 3.21%
per year in US$.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/12pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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. In addition, the Company has incurred expenses, which have been recognized straight
to the income statement, in relation to tailings management, communication services, humanitarian assistance, payroll, legal services,
water supply, among others.&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;On February 4, 2021, the Company
entered into a Judicial Settlement for Integral Reparation (&#x201c;Global Settlement&#x201d;), which was under negotiations since 2019,
with the State of Minas Gerais, the Public Defender of the State of Minas Gerais and the Federal and the State of Minas Gerais Public
Prosecutors Offices, to repair the environmental and social damage resulting from the Dam I rupture. As a result of the Global Settlement,
the requests for the reparation of socioenvironmental and socioeconomic damages caused by the dam failure were substantially resolved.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The Global Settlement includes: (i)
payment obligations, of which the funds will be used directly by the State of Minas Gerais and Institutions of Justice for socioeconomic
and socioenvironmental 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 5 years.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;In addition, the Global Settlement
addresses the diffuse and collective socioeconomic damages resulting from the disaster, with the exception of supervening damages, individual
damages and homogeneous individual damages of a divisible nature, in accordance with the claims of the lawsuits not extinguished by the
Global Settlement.&lt;/p&gt;




&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;For the measures described in items
(i) and (ii), the amounts are specified in the Global Settlement. For the execution of the environmental recovery, actions has no cap
limit, despite having been estimated in the Global Settlement due to the Company's legal obligation to fully repair the environmental
damage caused by the dam failure. 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;/table&gt;
&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11.5pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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;/table&gt;
&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/115% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;In 2024, there was a hearing with the
Judge to consider Motion for Class Decertification filed by Vale and oral arguments on the relevance of expert opinions presented by the
Plaintiffs' experts. A decision from the Court on Vale's requests is currently pending.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;In November 2021, a new complaint
was filed by eight investment funds that chose to seek redress for alleged damages independently and separately from the class members
of the main action, with the same allegations presented in the main class action. A decision from the Court on Vale's preliminary defense
("motion to dismiss") is pending since December 2023.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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;

one arbitration filed by 385 minority shareholders and three arbitrations filed by foreign investment funds. Vale was also a defendant
in two arbitrations filed by a class association allegedly representing all Vale&#x2019;s noncontrolling shareholders, which were dismissed
in August 2024.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;In the four ongoing 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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The expectation of loss is classified
as possible for the four 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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;In one of the proceedings filed by
foreign legal entities, &lt;span id="xdx_908_eifrs-full--DescriptionOfNatureOfInterestInFunds_c20250101__20250630_zElTAeUV4Cud" title="Description of alleged losses"&gt;the Claimants initially estimated the amount of the alleged losses would be approximately US$330 (R$1,800 million),
subject to interest and monetary adjustments. In another proceeding filed by foreign legal entities, the Claimants initially estimated
the amount of the alleged losses would be approximately US$715 (R$3,900 million), subject to interest and monetary adjustments. In the
procedure presented by minority shareholders, the applicants estimated the alleged losses at approximately US$550 (R$3,000 million), subject
to interest and monetary adjustments, which could be increased later, as alleged by the applicants.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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 claimants is remote.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/12pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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/12pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;Thus, Vale, Samarco, and BHPB entered
into agreements with the Federal Union, the States of Minas Gerais and Esp&#xed;rito Santo, and some other federal and state agencies,
establishing the creation of socioenvironmental and socioeconomic programs aimed at adopting measures for mitigation, remediation, and
compensation of damages. However, the requirements established reparation measures in the agreements could not be fully implemented within
the established period, and the involved parties began initiated further negotiations to seek a definitive agreement for the resolution
of all obligations related to the dam collapse.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; color: #FF0090"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

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

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/11.5pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;In October 2024, Vale, Samarco and BHPB,
together with the Brazilian Federal Government, the State Governments of Minas Gerais and Esp&#xed;rito Santo, the Federal and State
Public Prosecutors&#x2019; and Public Defenders&#x2019; Offices and other Brazilian public entities (jointly, &#x201c;the Parties&#x201d;)
entered into a new agreement (&#x201c;Definitive Settlement&#x201d;) on integral and definitive reparation of the impacts of Fund&#xe3;o
dam collapse, in Mariana, Minas Gerais. The agreement was ratified in November 2024.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/12pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The Definitive Settlement replaced
all of the previously signed agreements, and addressed Brazilian public authorities the claims related to the Fund&#xe3;o dam collapse,
from the perspective of socioenvironmental and socioeconomical damages.&lt;/p&gt;

for funding the obligations related to the Definitive Settlement. Vale and BHPB have secondary funding obligations in the proportion to
their 50 per cent shareholding in Samarco, in extent to which Samarco may not be able to fund the future cash outflows.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The judicial ratification of the

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; color: #FF0090"&gt;&#160;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/112% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 6pt; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;With the Definitive Agreement, the
public civil actions brought by the Brazilian Justice Institutions and Brazilian public authorities were substantially resolved and the
parameters for compliance with the reparation and compensation for damages were defined. Thus, the remaining most relevant legal proceedings
are shown below:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font: 12pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse"&gt;
  &lt;tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: #F3F3F3"&gt;

  &lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;In July 2024, 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 below.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/12pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;London claim -&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #242424"&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;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The proceedings against BHP are still
progressing in London and the oral testimony phase of the first stage of the trial, in which the liability issues of the BHP group companies
are dealt with, took place between October 2024 and March 2025. If BHP's liability is confirmed, a second stage trial will be held to
discuss and determine the amount of damages, scheduled to begin in October 2026 and is expected to last 22 weeks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/112% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The likelihood of loss of these proceedings
is considered possible. However, considering the current phase, it is not yet possible to reliably estimate the amount of a potential
loss, and an estimate may become quantifiable as the case progresses.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/12pt Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;Netherlands proceeding
-&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: #242424"&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$1,124 (EUR955 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. With the adherence of three municipalities (Iapu, Ponte Nova
and Rio Casca) to the Definitive Settlement, their lawsuit was discontinued, with the attachment being reduced to US$877 (EUR745.4 million).
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The likelihood of loss of these
proceedings is considered possible. However, considering the initial phase, it is not yet possible to reliably estimate the amount of
a potential loss, and an estimate may become quantifiable as the case progresses.&#160;&lt;/p&gt;






&lt;p style="font: 11pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; color: #007E7A"&gt;&lt;b&gt;d) Judicial reorganization of Samarco&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;In December 2023, Samarco&#x2019;s
existing US$&lt;span id="xdx_90C_eifrs-full--DebtInstrumentsHeld_iI_pn8n9_c20231231_ztt9syB9DUAi" title="Financial debt held by creditors"&gt;4.8&lt;/span&gt; billion of financial debt held by creditors was exchanged for approximately US$&lt;span id="xdx_906_ecustom--LongtermUnsecuredDebt_iI_pn8n9_c20231231_zg18jEWsSjh7" 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/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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$&lt;span id="xdx_90A_ecustom--FundOfReparationAndCompensationPrograms_iI_pn9n9_c20250630_zxzZU6EbdXC8" title="Fund of reparation and compensation programs"&gt;1&lt;/span&gt; billion from 2024 to 2030, of which US$&lt;span id="xdx_902_ecustom--AdditionalContributions_iI_pn6n6_c20250630_zqxbiIlgAzIe" title="Additional contributions"&gt;326&lt;/span&gt; has already been incurred, and additional
contributions after that period due to the Samarco&#x2019;s projected cash flows generation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&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
related to the demobilization occur after the end of operational activities and throughout the life of operations through progressive
closures. These obligations are regulated in Brazil at the Federal and State levels by ANM (National Mining Agency) and Environmental
Agencies, respectively. Among the requirements, the closure 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;

upstream compacted dams. However, the Company decided that these dams will be decommissioned using other methods, thus, the provision

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;For the long-term incentive programs,
the Company compensation plans includes 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 on equity, with a corresponding entry in the income statement, over the three-year required
service period, net of estimated losses. The charges related to these programs are recorded in liabilities as &#x201c;Employee benefits&#x201d;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font: 10pt/120% Vale Sans,sans-serif; margin: 10pt 0; text-align: justify; color: #242424"&gt;The fair value of the Matching program
