to holders under the Brazilian Conversion Offer, and instructions on how to exercise conversion rights will be made available in Portuguese

to convert those shares to one Unit (the &ldquo;<B>Common Conversion Offer</B>&rdquo; and, together with the Conversion Offer and the
Brazilian Conversion Offer, the &ldquo;<B>Conversion Offers</B>&rdquo;). In connection with the Common Conversion Offer, Copel will file
a Form CB which contains an English translation of the Notice to Shareholders as an exhibit. A holder of American Depositary Shares representing
Common Shares (&ldquo;<B>Common ADSs</B>&rdquo;) cannot tender such Common ADSs for conversion. However, Copel and the ADS Depositary
have agreed that, on the last day of the Conversion Offer period, the ADS Depositary will tender all Common Shares then represented by
Common ADSs into the Common Conversion Offer. If the Common Conversion Offer is completed, all outstanding Common ADSs will represent
Units. Preferred ADSs and Common ADSs will become Unit ADSs through the amendment to the Depositary Agreements, with five Preferred ADSs
or Common ADSs becoming one Unit ADS. If the number of Preferred Class B Shares and/or Common Shares represented by Preferred ADSs and/or
Common ADSs is not an integral multiple of five, the ADS Depositary will sell the excess Preferred Class B Shares and/or Common Shares
necessary to reduce such Preferred Class B Shares and/or Common Shares to an integral multiple of five and distribute the cash proceeds
resulting from that sale to each applicable holder of Preferred Class B Shares and/or Common Shares.</P>

Accordingly, to the extent that Copel or its agents are required to take any position on the Brazilian tax consequences of the conversion of shares to holders, Copel generally intends to take the position that no Brazilian withholding income tax is required. However, a Non&#45;Brazilian Holder of Preferred Class B Shares that is not a 4,373 Holder may be subject to income tax due on the capital gains, at a progressive rate ranging from 15% to 22.5%, depending on the amount of the capital gains. &nbsp;<B>In any case, Non&#45;Brazilian Holders should consult their own tax advisors in order to confirm such treatment. </B>See &ldquo;Special Factors&mdash;Section 4&mdash;Material Tax Consequences&mdash; Material Brazilian Tax Consequences.&rdquo; </TD></TR>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">Copel hereby offers holders
of Preferred Class B Shares the opportunity to convert five Preferred Class B Shares, including Preferred Class B Shares represented by
Preferred ADSs, into one Unit, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Convert. If the Conversion Offer
is completed, the Preferred Class B Shares underlying Preferred ADSs will be converted into Units, unless the holder has surrendered its
Preferred ADSs and taken delivery of the underlying Preferred Class B Shares.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">Subject to the terms described
herein, unless Copel extends or terminates the Conversion Offer, in order to participate in the Conversion Offer, holders of Preferred
Class B Shares must elect to convert their Preferred Class B Shares no later than the Expiration Date. A holder of Preferred ADSs cannot
tender such Preferred ADSs for conversion. However, Copel and the ADS Depositary have agreed that, on the last day of the Conversion Offer
period, the ADS Depositary will tender all Preferred Class B Shares then represented by Preferred ADSs into the Conversion Offer. If the
Conversion Offer is completed, all outstanding Preferred ADSs will represent Units. Preferred ADSs and Common ADSs will become Unit ADSs
through the amendment to the Depositary Agreements, with five Preferred ADSs or Common ADSs becoming one Unit ADS. Consequently, a holder
of Preferred ADSs that wishes to hold Unit ADSs if the Conversion Offer is completed does not need to take any action in connection with
the Conversion Offer. A holder of Preferred ADSs that does not wish the Preferred Class B Shares underlying its Preferred ADSs to be converted
into Units, or that does not wish to hold Unit ADSs if the Conversion Offer is completed, must surrender its Preferred ADSs to the ADS
Depositary and arrange to receive delivery of the underlying Preferred Class B Shares in Brazil not later than April 19, 2021. Such a
holder will be required to pay the ADS Depositary&rsquo;s cancellation fee of $0.05 per Preferred ADS surrendered and a cable fee of $17.50
and must arrange to open a securities account with a Brazilian broker, if it does not have one.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">All Preferred Class B
Shares that are tendered for conversion and not withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date, will be converted into Units, in accordance with
the terms described herein and subject to the conditions described herein.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">If you hold your Preferred
Class B Shares directly and wish to convert any or all of your Preferred Class B Shares in the Conversion Offer, you must instruct your
representative in Brazil, or your broker or custodian in the absence of such a representative, to transfer the Preferred Class B Shares
that you wish to convert to a Conversion Account, subject to the rules and operating procedures of B3, on or prior to April 20, 2021.
If you own your Preferred Class B Shares through a broker or other securities intermediary and your broker or other securities intermediary
submits your election to convert Preferred Class B Shares on your behalf, your broker or other securities intermediary may charge a fee
for doing so. You should consult your broker or other securities intermediary to determine whether any charges or commissions will apply.

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">The Conversion Offer is
conditioned on the aggregate number of Units issuable as a result of the Conversion Offers (taken together) attaining 229,122,878. That
represents approximately 60% of the total capital stock, excluding from the denominator all shares owned by the State, meaning that if
the Minimum Participation Condition is met, the number of Common Shares and Preferred Shares held as Units (including Units represented
by Unit ADSs) will be at least 60% of the total outstanding shares of Copel held by persons other than the State. This Minimum Participation
Condition cannot be waived. Satisfaction of the Minimum Participation Condition will be determined as of the Expiration Date. If it is
met, all Preferred Class B Shares that are tendered for conversion and not withdrawn prior to the Expiration Date will be converted into
Units in accordance with the terms described herein. If it is not met, the Conversion Offer will not be completed.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">This Conversion Offer
does not have the purpose of delisting Copel as a publicly traded company with the CVM, and Copel will continue to be a public traded
company with the CVM following completion of this Conversion Offer. If the Conversion Offers are consummated, Unit ADSs will trade on
the NYSE. We expect that Unit ADSs will be our only equity securities trading on the NYSE following the completion of the Conversion Offer
and that Preferred ADSs will no longer trade on the NYSE. Copel does not currently plan to terminate the registration of the Preferred
Class B Shares underlying the Units with the SEC. If the Unitization is completed, Copel will also register the Common Shares underlying
the Units with the SEC. Although Copel does not have any plan for terminating the registration of the Preferred Class B Shares or Common
Shares underlying the Units with the SEC, Copel may propose further transactions for that purpose in the future.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">of four Preferred Class B Shares and one Common Share.
The steps to establish the Units, taken as a whole, are referred to as the Unitization. The Unitization includes the Conversion Offer,
the Brazilian Conversion Offer and the Common Conversion Offer. In connection with the Unitization, the Preferred ADS Deposit Agreement
and the Common ADS Deposit Agreement will each be amended to provide that, effective upon the completion of the Conversion Offers, there
will be a single A&amp;R Deposit Agreement, and each ADS will represent one Unit. Preferred ADSs and Common ADSs will become Unit ADSs
through the amendment to the Depositary Agreements, with five Preferred ADSs or Common ADSs becoming one Unit ADS.</P>

selected because it achieves these objectives in a manner that is familiar in Brazilian corporate practice, for which there are a number

    primarily to greater liquidity in the Preferred Shares. We expect that the trading price of a Unit will generally correspond to the trading
    price of four Preferred Shares and one Common Share, because a holder of a Unit can withdraw the underlying shares and a holder of four
    Preferred Shares and one Common Share can create a Unit, except that there may be a small premium for the Units because of their greater
    liquidity. We considered the potential impact on price, including the fact that the Preferred Shares historically traded at a premium

(a &ldquo;<B>Non&#45;Brazilian Holder</B>&rdquo;). This discussion is based on the tax laws of Brazil and regulations thereunder in effect
on the date hereof, which are subject to change. This discussion does not specifically address all of the Brazilian tax considerations
that may be applicable to any particular Non&#45;Brazilian Holder. Therefore, each Non&#45;Brazilian Holder should consult its own tax
advisor about the Brazilian tax consequences of the exchange of its Preferred Class B Shares or Preferred ADSs or the Conversion of its
Units.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">The sale or any other
form of disposition of the Units or Preferred Class B Shares, which are assets located in Brazil, may give rise to withholding income
tax upon any possible capital gain derived by Non&#45;Brazilian Holders. According to article 26 of Law No.&nbsp;10,833, enacted on December&nbsp;29,
2003, capital gains realized by a foreign investor on the sale or any other form of disposition of assets located in Brazil are subject
to withholding income tax in Brazil, whether the sale is to a non&#45;Brazilian resident or to a Brazilian resident. However, the conversion
of the Preferred Class B Shares into Units should not be characterized as a sale or any other form of disposition of Preferred Class B
Shares.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 10pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">To the extent that Copel
or its agents are required to take any position on the Brazilian tax consequences of the conversion of shares to holders, Copel intends
to take the position that no Brazilian withholding income tax is required. There is no specific provision in the Brazilian legislation,
and we are not aware of any court decision, as to the tax consequences of the conversion of shares. We believe that the conversion of
the Preferred Class B Shares into Units should not be characterized as a sale or any other form of disposition of shares, so the conversion
of the Preferred Class B Shares into Common Shares should not trigger income tax consequences in Brazil to Non&#45;Brazilian Holders.
However, a Non Brazilian Holder of Preferred Class B Shares that is not a 4,373 Holder may be subject to income tax due on the capital
gains, at a progressive rate ranging from 15% to 22.5%, depending on the amount of the capital gains. <B>In any case, Non&#45;Brazilian
Holders should consult their own tax advisors in order to confirm such treatment.</B></P>

the Minimum Participation Condition is met, the number of Common Shares and Preferred Shares held as Units (including Units represented
by Unit ADSs) will be at least 60% of the total outstanding shares of Copel held by persons other than the State. This Minimum Participation
Condition cannot be waived. Satisfaction of the Minimum Participation Condition will be determined as of the Expiration Date. If it is

<P STYLE="font: 10pt/10.6pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0 0 12pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">In accordance with
our bylaws and Brazilian Corporate Law, we regularly pay annual dividends for each fiscal year within sixty days of the declaration of
the dividends at the annual shareholders&rsquo; meeting. To the extent amounts are available for distribution, we are required to distribute
as a mandatory dividend an aggregate amount equal to at least 25.0% of our adjusted net profit. Dividends are allocated pursuant to the
formula described in &ldquo;Dividend Priority of Preferred Class A Shares and Preferred Class B Shares&rdquo; below. Under Brazilian Corporate
Law, we are not permitted to suspend the mandatory dividend payable with respect to the Common Shares, Preferred Class A Shares and Preferred
Class B Shares for any year. Brazilian Corporate Law permits, however, a company to suspend the payment of all dividends if the Board
of Directors, with the approval of the supervisory board, reports at the shareholders&rsquo; meeting that the distribution would be detrimental
to the Company given its financial circumstances. In such a case, companies with publicly traded securities must submit a report to the
CVM providing the reasons for the suspension of dividend payments. Notwithstanding the above, Brazilian Corporate Law and our bylaws provide
that Preferred Class A Shares and Preferred Class B Shares shall acquire voting rights if we suspend the mandatory dividend payments for
more than three consecutive fiscal years, and such voting rights will continue until all dividend payments, including back payments, have
been made. We are not subject to any contractual limitations on our ability to pay dividends.</P>

allocated to employees&rsquo; and management&rsquo;s participation in our results in such fiscal year. The &ldquo;net profit&rdquo; for

such reserve reaches an amount equal to 20.0% of our capital stock (calculated in accordance with Brazilian Corporate Law). However, we
are not required to make any allocations to our legal reserve in a fiscal year in which the legal reserve, when added to our other established
capital reserves, exceeds 30.0% of our total capital stock. The amounts to be allocated to such reserve must be approved by our shareholders
in a shareholders&rsquo; meeting and may be used only for the increase of our capital stock or compensation of losses.</P>

of certain fixed assets and the adoption of the fair value as its &ldquo;deemed cost&rdquo; at that date. The increase of the deemed cost
of fixed assets led to an increase in depreciation costs. Thus, our management has decided to add to the adjusted net profits the realization
of the &ldquo;Equity Value Adjustments&rdquo; in order to compensate for effects of the increased depreciation costs. This procedure is
authorized by ICPC 10 (<I>Interpreta&ccedil;&atilde;o do Comit&ecirc; de Pronunciamento Cont&aacute;bil</I>). In 2019, our adjusted net

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify; text-indent: 0.25in">The ADS Depositary has agreed
to pay or distribute to Unit ADS holders the cash dividends or other distributions it or the custodian receives on Units or other deposited
securities, upon payment or deduction of its fees and expenses. You will receive these distributions in proportion to the number of Units
your Unit ADSs represent.</P>

will convert any cash dividend or other cash distribution we pay on the Units into U.S. dollars, if it can do so on a reasonable basis
and can transfer the U.S. dollars to the United States. If that is not possible or if any government approval is needed and cannot be
obtained, the A&amp;R Deposit Agreement allows the ADS Depositary to distribute the foreign currency only to those Unit ADS holders to
whom it is possible to do so. It will hold the foreign currency it cannot convert for the account of the Unit ADS holders who have not
been paid. It will not invest the foreign currency and it will not be liable for any interest. Before making a distribution, any withholding
taxes, or other governmental charges that must be paid will be deducted. See &ldquo;Special Factors&mdash;Section 4&mdash; Material Tax
Consequences.&rdquo; The ADS Depositary will distribute only whole U.S. dollars and cents and will round fractional cents to the nearest
whole cent. If the exchange rates fluctuate during a time when the ADS Depositary cannot convert the foreign currency, you may lose some
of the value of the distribution.</P>

Depositary may distribute additional Unit ADSs representing any Units we distribute as a dividend or free distribution. The ADS Depositary
will only distribute whole Unit ADSs. It will sell Units which would require it to deliver a fraction of a Unit ADS (or ADSs representing
those Units) and distribute the net proceeds in the same way as it does with cash. If the ADS Depositary does not distribute additional
Unit ADSs, the outstanding Unit ADSs will also represent the new Units. The ADS Depositary may sell a portion of the distributed Units
(or ADSs representing those Units) sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in connection with that distribution.</P>

may (i) exercise those rights on behalf of Unit ADS holders, (ii) distribute those rights to Unit ADS holders or (iii) sell those rights
and distribute the net proceeds to Unit ADS holders, in each case after deduction or upon payment of its fees and expenses. To the extent
the ADS Depositary does not do any of those things, it will allow the rights to lapse. In that case, you will receive no value for them.
The ADS Depositary will exercise or distribute rights only if we ask it to and provide satisfactory assurances to the ADS Depositary that
it is legal to do so. If the ADS Depositary will exercise rights, it will purchase the securities to which the rights relate and distribute
those securities or, in the case of Units, new Unit ADSs representing the new Units, to subscribing Unit ADS holders, but only if Unit
ADS holders have paid the exercise price to the ADS Depositary. U.S. securities laws may restrict the ability of the ADS Depositary to
distribute rights or Unit ADSs or other securities issued on exercise of rights to all or certain Unit ADS holders, and the securities
distributed may be subject to restrictions on transfer.</P>

ADS Depositary will send to Unit ADS holders anything else we distribute on deposited securities by any means it thinks is legal, fair
and practical. If it cannot make the distribution in that way, the ADS Depositary has a choice. It may decide to sell what we distributed
and distribute the net proceeds, in the same way as it does with cash. Or, it may decide to hold what we distributed, in which case Unit
ADSs will also represent the newly distributed property. However, the ADS Depositary is not required to distribute any securities (other
than Unit ADSs) to Unit ADS holders unless it receives satisfactory evidence from us that it is legal to make that distribution. The ADS
Depositary may sell a portion of the distributed securities or property sufficient to pay its fees and expenses in connection with that
distribution. U.S. securities laws may restrict the ability of the ADS Depositary to distribute securities to all or certain Unit ADS

registered holding of uncertificated Unit ADSs and holding of security entitlements in Unit ADSs through DTC and a DTC participant. Profile
is a feature of DRS that allows a DTC participant, claiming to act on behalf of a registered holder of uncertificated Unit ADSs, to direct

that DTC participant without receipt by the ADS Depositary of prior authorization from the Unit ADS holder to register that transfer.</P>

our directors and executive officers collectively own 15,020 Preferred Class B Shares and Preferred ADSs, and each director and executive

forth in the preceding sentence, none of the executive officers or directors of Copel or any of their associates beneficially owns any
Preferred Class B Shares or Preferred ADSs.</P>

Copel that, following the completion of the Conversion Offers, the State will convert additional Common Shares to Units. The number of
Common Shares to be converted will not exceed an amount that reduces the State&rsquo;s ownership to 51% of the Common Shares outstanding.
The number of Common Shares converted by the State will be disclosed by means of a notice (<I>fato relevante</I>) in Brazil that will

will be sought. We do not currently intend, however, to delay the conversion of Preferred Class B Shares pursuant to the Conversion Offer
pending the outcome of any such action or the receipt of any such approval. We are unable to predict whether we will determine that we
are required to delay the conversion of Preferred Class B Shares DSs pursuant to the Conversion Offer pending the outcome of any such
matter. We can offer no assurance that any such approval or other action, if needed, would be obtained (with or without substantial conditions)
or that if such approvals were not obtained or such other actions were not taken adverse consequences might not result to our business
or certain parts of our business might not have to be disposed of, any of which could cause us to elect to terminate the Conversion Offer
